Chapter 116

I don't know how long it took, but the breath was filled with a strong fragrance.

Huo Tianxiao, who hadn't eaten much in the first place, his stomach rumbled in disbelief. When he opened his eyes, he saw An Huan flipping the grilled blackened fish with excitement on his face.

"Is something like charcoal really edible?" Huo Tianxiao closed his eyes again with strong disdain, and didn't even look at it.

Cui Jian just came back from picking the fruit, and it is autumn, which happens to be the season when the fruit is ripe, so he picked a large handful without much effort.

After smelling the fragrance of fish, Cui Jian's eyes lit up immediately, and he yelled, "Imperial Concubine, this... this..." He wiped his hands vigorously while speaking.

"I'll eat one for you soon." An Huan said without raising his head.

"Yes, yes... Thank you, Imperial Concubine..." Cui Jian laughed loudly, and happily ran to the river to wash the fruit.

Huo Tianxiao couldn't help but rolled his eyes, he's really worthless, isn't he just a fish, with me by my side, do you eat less delicacies?

However, this time, he subconsciously looked at the five grilled fish.

Cui Jian has always been prudent, and he has a lot of knowledge by his side, but he has shown such great interest in this grilled fish. Could it be that this fish is really delicious?

Thinking like this, his stomach became more and more hungry, and the thunderous belly sounds almost tormented him so much that he couldn't bear to live.

"Damn it." He tried to close his eyes and sleep in the autumn sunshine, but he couldn't fall asleep.

Cui Jian held the fruit, spread out a clean cloth, and put the fruit on it.

After checking carefully and confirming that the fruit he picked was not poisonous, he ate another one first, and then said, "Your Majesty, eat some fruit to quench your thirst."

"Hmph..." Huo Tianxiao took a fruit angrily and took a bite.

It tastes sweet and sweet, and it is a variety that has never been eaten in the palace. I wanted to eat it in one go, but when I raised my eyebrows, I saw An Huan and Cui Jian holding a fish and eating it.

It was as if a starving ghost had been reincarnated, and they had eaten food for several lifetimes. Both of them buried their faces in it, and they didn't know whether they were chewing or not, and they kept making swallowing sounds.

That voice made Huo Tianxiao irritated, he even felt that the fruit in his hand was scum, and he lost any appetite for it.

He frowned and looked at An Huan and Cui Jian eating happily, and threw the fruit in his hand viciously.

Cui Jian was taken aback by his action, and asked repeatedly, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you."

"It's okay, you continue to eat." Huo Tianxiao said unhappily.

"Oh." This time, Cui Jian became very honest and listened to him, and he really continued to eat.

Huo Tianxiao's teeth were about to be crushed, he was trying to anger him on purpose, right?Cui Jian has been with him for so long, can't he even tell whether what he said is right or irony?

People's hearts are not old, and the world is going downhill. It's really embarrassing for a fish to buy his capable confidant.

"Is it delicious?" He couldn't help asking.

"Delicious." Cui Jian replied inarticulately.

He carefully peeled off the charred fish skin that was baked on the outside, revealing the white and tender meat inside. The smell of hot fish meat rushed to people. Huo Tianxiao bet that he had never had such a strong desire for food in his life.

So strong that he wanted to go crazy.

What is going on with Cui Jian, who has always been clever and quick-witted?Don't you see that he is very hungry, very hungry, and needs to eat?

His complexion gradually darkened, with anger looming.

Seeing him like this, An Huan knew the time was right, and secretly pushed Cui Jian with her hand, Cui Jian grinned, and said to Huo Tianxiao, "Your Majesty, would you like to try it?"

"Yeah." Huo Tianxiao looked reluctant, "Try it."

"Yeah." Cui Jian pretended to be honest, and without breaking Huo Tianxiao's mind, he took a grilled fish from the fire, peeled off the skin, and handed it to Huo Tianxiao.

When Huo Tianxiao handed it to his mouth, his eyes were still disgusted as always.

However, when his taste buds came into contact with the delicious grilled fish, his eyes immediately changed, and he almost forgot that An Huan and Cui Jian were looking at him. , Unknowingly swallowed into the stomach.

The second fish...

The third fish...

After eating all the remaining three fish, Huo Tianxiao still felt unsatisfied. The aroma blooming in his taste buds made him want to stop.

After eating three fish, he felt a little full. He raised his head and asked in surprise, "Why are you two looking at me? Is there something dirty on my face?"

Cui Jian pouted, "Your Majesty, you have eaten all the fish."

Huo Tianxiao was startled, looked down and saw the broken bones all over the floor, even though he thought he was thick-skinned, he blushed slightly.

He glared at Cui Jian pretending to be angry, "You're the only one who talks too much."

Cui Jian smiled wryly, "This subordinate is guilty."

Even so, secretly laughing endlessly.

Today's good show with the imperial concubine is really interesting. He knows that Huo Tianxiao loves face very much. Once he decides something, even if he is wrong, there is absolutely no possibility of changing it.

And the relationship between him and An Huan is also the same. Although today's trivial matter cannot change anything fundamentally, it is still a good start, so even if he is scolded by Huo Tianxiao, he is very happy in his heart.

……

The next itinerary seemed to become more interesting, and it seemed to become more boring.

Because Huo Tianxiao's face became even darker, like a gunpowder keg, whoever ignites it will be killed.

Cui Jian could still feel the chill emanating from Huo Tianxiao while driving on the shaft of the car, let alone An Huan who was facing him directly.

"The emperor doesn't seem to be in a good mood." She asked knowingly.

"I'm in a good mood." Huo Tianxiao snorted coldly.

"That's right, of course I feel good after eating such delicious food, but I'm a poor fish catcher and griller, but I ate the least." An Huan pretended to be sad.

"What do you mean by that?" The last thing you want to hear is to mention what happened just now, Huo Tianxiao's hot temper will come immediately.

"It's not interesting, I just want to ask the emperor, is it delicious?" An Huan laughed.

Huo Tianxiao's eyes widened, wishing he could strangle her to death.

"Your Majesty, I don't know if I should say something or not." An Huan ignored the anger on his face and smiled lightly.

"Since it's not appropriate to say it, then don't say it."

"Then let me tell you." With a smile, An Huan said seriously, "Your majesty, as the saying goes, you are short of hands and soft on people, and the emperor eats the grilled fish from his concubine. Does it mean that he is not even willing to give his minister a good face?" Concubine?"

"Are you asking for credit?" Huo Tianxiao said coldly.

An Huan nodded, "The emperor can think so."

"Then what do you want?" Huo Tianxiao was so angry that he was about to explode, didn't he just accidentally ate three grilled fish? It's okay to be laughed at by Cui Jian, but also to suffer An Huan's eyes.

"I want, the emperor smiles at me." The charming voice said it so softly, with a deceptive aura.

A certain soft place in Huo Tianxiao's heart seemed to be poked hard with a finger, and it was even softer.

He widened his eyes and looked at An Huan in disbelief.

What does this mean?
What kind of request is this?
She wants him to laugh?

"Is the emperor unwilling?" An Huan asked aggrievedly.

"I……"

"Your Majesty needn't say anything, the concubine understands in her heart." With a low sigh, her complexion was indescribably dull.

Huo Tianxiao was speechless in surprise, this An Huan, could it be that he really wanted to see him smile, it was so simple?
Could it be that he really hasn't smiled for a long, long time?Let her make such an alternative request.

It's not difficult to smile, just squeeze the cheeks, it's a smile.

For some reason, when he saw An Huan's sad and disappointed look, he felt very uncomfortable. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Okay, I promise you."

An Huan raised her head and asked, "Is what the emperor said true?"

Huo Tianxiao felt extremely awkward, but he still had to hum.

An Huan smiled lightly, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Her cheerful smile infected Huo Tianxiao invisibly. The corners of Huo Tianxiao's mouth, at some point, curved slightly, and a light smile was outlined.

He thought that the face that hadn't smiled for a long time had already become stiff, but this smile was so natural.

It turned out that he could still laugh, but he didn't know it.

An Huan blinked, and said with a charming smile, "The emperor smiles again."

Huo Tianxiao smiled.

An Huan said again, "The emperor will bring one more."

Huo Tianxiao's face became stiff again, and the smile disappeared in an instant.

Flicking his sleeves and getting up, Huo Tianxiao walked out of the carriage with a cold look.

An Huan smiled foolishly, as cunning as a fox.

……

Because of this joke, Huo Tianxiao didn't say a word to An Huan again in the next few days, and didn't give her a good face.

Perhaps, if it were not for an unexpected incident, the cold war would have lasted longer.

The speed of the carriage was not slow, and in about ten days, it had left Zitong Pass and headed northwest.

This area is relatively sparsely populated, but this day, because of the rush to go through several villages in a row, the whole afternoon has been shuttling on the desolate grassland.

When it was getting dark, Huo Tianxiao signaled to stop and rest.

Not far ahead, there is a dense forest. I don’t know how wide the forest is, but standing on a high place and looking at the large stretch of green stretching out, I know that it will definitely not go out without spending half a day.

The trees in the woods are too lush. Although it is autumn, there are still many evergreen trees with luxuriant branches, blocking most of the sight.

Those who have experience in walking the rivers and lakes will know that it is extremely unwise to walk through the forest at night.

Therefore, Huo Tianxiao's decision is undoubtedly a rare and wise decision for him to go north to Daxiong Temple.

An Huan said he had no objection, and raised his hands in favor. Cui Jian smiled shyly while collecting firewood and lighting the fire. He has cleaned up more times during his journey, and his hands and feet have naturally become much more agile.

Collecting firewood, lighting the fire, cleaning the pot, boiling water, one-stop service, very busy...

The sky quickly darkened, and the coolness of late autumn enveloped people, giving people a kind of coldness that penetrates the skin.

Not far away, a mist rises above the dense woods. The thin mist is like a mysterious veil of a goddess, covering the sky and covering the sky, with a mysterious atmosphere exclusive to nature.

The weather was very cold, and even though they had put on thick coats, they still felt the chill. The three of them moved to the side of the fire to absorb the heat.

Huo Tianxiao looked at An Huan, and then at his embrace, his eyes sparkled, and he swallowed the words again.

An Huan didn't know if she noticed his behavior, maybe she did, maybe she didn't notice, she was holding a long stick, fiddled with the flames casually, bored.

Every time she did it, there was a zigzag sound, and the flames ran up the stick, reflecting her already fair face and complexion like natural jade, without any flaws at all.
