away from the heart

Chapter 54
It was three poles high in the sun, and Chuyue woke up in a daze.She sat up and stretched contentedly.Tao Yao asked nervously: "The princess slept with the general last night? Then did you fall asleep during the taboo hour?"

Chuyue was stunned: "Ah? It seems...it's over!" She was so frightened that her face turned pale, and suddenly her expression changed, and she said pleasantly: "But... I didn't dream!"

"Didn't dream? Is the princess sure?"

"Sure, sure!" Chuyue was so happy that she jumped three feet high and put her arms around Taoyao, "I really didn't have a dream! My God, it's the first night without dreams in so many years. Since I didn't dream of anything, don't worry It was backfired!"

Tao Yao was also elated: "That's great! But...why didn't you have a dream?"

Chuyue sat down: "Yeah, why? If there was anything different last night, it would be that Xue Yao was there..." Her eyes lit up, "Could it be because of him?!"

After Chuyue finished washing, she excitedly went to find Xue Yao.She saw Xue Yao tending flowers and plants in the garden from a distance, and hurriedly ran over happily: "Xue Yao! Xue Yao!" She stood in front of Xue Yao, "I have something to ask you!"

Xue Yao's subordinates didn't stop, and he didn't look up at her, and asked lightly, "What's the matter?"

Chu Yue said righteously: "What did you do to me last night?"

Xue Yao couldn't help but hesitate.Thinking of Chuyue's tricks on him last night, and rubbing left and right... Xue Yao coughed lowly, and changed the subject calmly: "Madam influences me to plant flowers."

Chuyue was attracted to the attention and knelt down to look at the flowers he planted.There is a solitary flower stem standing in the pot, and there is no bare leaf, only a pure white flower bud hangs from the top, drooping shyly and ready to bud.She asked, "What kind of flower is this? It looks so strange."

"This flower is called Liren, and it is rare in the world. When it blooms, the leaves will wither. The Liren flower only blooms once a year, and the flowering period is only one day. I have been on the battlefield in the past few years, and I have never seen it with my own eyes. , this year I can finally stay at home and wait for it to bloom."

"Leaving people? Flowers and leaves will never meet, it sounds a little lonely..." Chuyue clapped her hands and stood up, and suddenly came to her senses, "Oh no, you haven't answered me yet, what did you do to me last night Why didn't I see you when I got up early in the morning?"

Xue Yao coughed again and stood up: "This general has important matters to deal with early in the morning, how can I be as leisurely as you."

When Chuyue saw his face, she was startled: "Your dark circles under your eyes are too heavy, almost hanging on your neck. Hey, why are you blushing..."

Xue Yao became angry from embarrassment, turned around and left.Chuyue hurriedly wanted to catch up, but accidentally tripped over the flower shovel on the ground, couldn't help but tilted her body, and rushed forward with an ouch sound, she was about to fall into the mud.

Unable to taste the fragrance of the soil, she bumped into a solid chest with an arm wrapped around her waist.Does this Xue Yao have eyes behind his back?Chuyue's face became hot, and she hurriedly withdrew from his arms: "I...I'm fine."

She lowered her eyes, not noticing the flash of disappointment in Xue Yao's eyes.Xue Yao's hand was still in mid-air, speechless for a moment, he was stunned for a moment before he replied dryly: "Well, as long as there is nothing to do." Bai Liqi popped up: "General, Prince Shun is here, and he said he would See Madam, I'm waiting in the front hall right now."

"The stars are here!" Chuyue immediately forgot about anything else, picked up her skirt and ran to the front hall.Xue Yao breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes followed her back, and he was fascinated.Bai Liqi pretended to cough, but Xue Yao gave him a hard look: "Is there any clue to what I asked you to investigate?"

Bai Li blushed: "It's too late for my subordinates to come down. The Marquis of Beize had already asked His Majesty to resign yesterday, and he took people back to Beize overnight. When I just went there, I missed it again."

"Going in such a haste?" Xue Yao collected his expression and looked deeply at Chuyue's leaving direction, "It seems that Prince Shun, who always comes to Chuyue for nothing, is really not that simple."
