Chapter 1048 Jujube Who Narrowly Escaped Death (1)
?Walking into the garden, a burst of earthy grass smell rushed towards me. This smell makes the whole body feel comfortable, and the mind can't help but wake up a lot.
Yu Xi took a deep breath, then walked slowly.
Liu'er held Yuxi's arm and said, "Mother, are you reluctant? I am also reluctant!" She is very familiar with every plant and tree here. But soon, she will leave.
Yuxi laughed and said: "You have lived here for sixteen years, do you think you are reluctant?" How many sixteen years are there in life.
The mother and daughter walked and chatted. The conversation was in full swing, and Jing Bai came over and said, "Princess, Lord Shen, please see me." Among the six ministers, Yuxi relied most on the Minister of Household Affairs, Shen Chunting, who was good at managing money. It is also thanks to him these years, otherwise Yuxi would have died of exhaustion.
Liu'er was very depressed, every time she wanted to have a good conversation with her mother, she couldn't do it: "Mother, when will you really be free?"
Yuxi patted her slender hand lightly, and said with a smile: "Mum won't be free until Ah Hao takes your father's place." Before that, she still had a lot of work to do.
After Yuxi left, Liu'er went to the pavilion. Looking at the koi swimming freely in the lake, Liu'er threw a handful of fish food and said, "If these fish are left unattended, they will die soon."
"Pu Chi..." Zao Zao heard this as soon as he came over, and couldn't help laughing: "It's not like the mansion doesn't keep people, how can they starve to death. You, you just like to worry about it."
Liu'er was overwhelmed with surprise, and asked, "Eldest sister, when did you come back? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"
After finishing speaking, he carefully looked at Zao Zao. He looked more imposing and mighty than when he left.
Zao Zao didn't go home during Chinese New Year last year, and has been suppressing bandits in Shandong. This time, it was Yun Qing who ordered her to come back.
Zaozao said with a smile: "If I told you in advance, there would be no surprises. By the way, besides me, Feng Xiaoer is also back." After speaking, he blinked his eyes and said narrowly: "Do you want to see him? If you want, I will arrange it for you."
Liu'er laughed and said: "If I want to see Ah Xi, I just ask him to come to the palace directly. I don't need you to arrange it."
As if discovering a new continent, Zao Zao raised his voice and said, "Ah! I haven't seen you for a year, how dare you!"
Seeing that Zao Zao's hair was covered with a layer of dust, Liu'er asked, "Sister, did you come here without washing?" Horse riding would raise dust, and a lot of dust would be stained on the body.
"Give this to you, and I'll go back and wash." After speaking, Zao Zao took out a small box from his sleeve and handed it to Liu Er: "This is what Feng Xiaoer asked me to hand over to you."
Liu'er took the things and said with a smile: "Eldest sister, can you change your name, Feng Xiaoer is so ugly!"
Zaozao laughed loudly: "Did Feng Xiaoer complain to you?" Feng Zhixi didn't like this title very much, and protested many times, but Zaozao ignored them all. There was no other way, Feng Zhixi had no choice but to ask Liu Er for help.
Liu'er nodded, and said with a smile on her face: "Sister, Feng Xiaoer is really ugly. You call him Axi like me, okay?"
"Okay, whatever you say is what you want." After finishing speaking, Zao Zao said with a smile: "By the way, besides this hairpin, Axi also brought a box of donkey-hide gelatin. Donkey-hide gelatin nourishes qi and blood, you should eat more .” Shandong’s specialty is donkey-hide gelatin, and she also bought a lot. But because the capital was going to be moved, she had people send all these things to the capital.
Liu'er was sweet in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, otherwise she would definitely be teased by Zao Zao again: "Sister, go and wash up!"
Zao Zao returned to her yard with a smile.
Liu'er looked at her background with a gloomy expression: "Youlian, go ask Aunt Hongdou to see if something happened to Eldest Sister when she was suppressing the bandits?"
"Princess, what do you say?" You Lian didn't feel any change in Zao Zao, at most she was more cheerful than before.
Liu Er frowned and said, "Something must have happened.
It's just that the eldest sister and mother were afraid that I would worry, so they didn't tell me. "
As Liu'er thought, Zao Zao really encountered trouble in suppressing the bandits this time, and it was not a small matter. Because the people who broke into the bandits were found, they couldn't survive the torture and rebelled. The bandits deliberately asked him to send false news back, saying that there were only 500 bandits. In fact, there were nearly three thousand bandits. Zao Zao took only 2,000 people, and was ambushed again on the way, and finally the whole army was wiped out.
You Lian said cautiously: "The princess was shot by an arrow, and then was chased and killed by those bandits. When the Yin guard got the news and took the soldiers, the princess had already disappeared." The reason why Yin Zhaofeng didn't follow was because He is sick. After receiving the news, Yin Zhaofeng dispatched 5,000 soldiers to wipe out the bandits, despite his high fever, but there was no trace of Zaozao.
Liu'er was trembling all over. If the elder sister had an accident, she could hardly imagine the consequences.
Seeing Liu'er's expression, Gulian couldn't continue.
Seeing that Youlian didn't say anything more, Liu'er said in a deep voice, "What happened next? What happened after that?" Zao Zao's return showed that it was a false alarm, but Liu'er still wanted to know the process.
Youlian said softly: "Guard Yin led the man to search for a month, and finally found him at the bottom of a cliff." It is also the fate of the princess, how can ordinary people live in the wild for a month!
Liu'er couldn't sit still any longer, and immediately got up to look for Zao Zao. Arriving at Zao Zao's yard, the maid said she was taking a bath.
Calling Hongdou over, Liu'er asked coldly: "My mother asked you to protect eldest sister, why didn't you stay by his side at the critical moment."
Although it has been half a year, Hongdou remembers it firmly: "I hurt my leg at the time, and I couldn't run anymore." It was also because of her rich experience that she fell to the ground and pretended to be dead after her leg was injured, so she escaped. doomed.
Liu'er's expression eased a lot: "Has your leg injury not healed yet?" When Hongdou walked in, she was limping, presumably the injury was not healed. It's just that she was too angry just now, so she subconsciously ignored it.
Hongdou shook her head and said, "The injury has healed, but there will be future troubles, and I can no longer be like a normal person in the future." When Hongdou said this, his expression was very indifferent. Compared with those who lost their lives, she is actually very lucky.
Liu'er paused, and asked in a low voice: "Where are Qiu He and Xia Zhi? Where are they?" These two are Zao Zao's personal female guards, both of whom are very skilled in martial arts.
Hongdou couldn't help lowering her voice: "They escaped to cover the princess, and died at the hands of the bandits."
Liu'er shuddered. Qiuhe and Xiazhi are gone, so one can imagine how dangerous it was at that time. Almost, almost she would never see her eldest sister again.
He realized that something was wrong with Liu'er again, and quickly comforted her: "Second princess, the eldest princess is fine now, don't think about it."
Seeing something wrong, Shao Yao immediately went to clean the room.
Zao Zao was enjoying the bath at this time, when she heard Shao Yao say that Liu Er was frightened, she hurriedly put on her clothes and went out.
Seeing Zao Zao, Liu Er hugged her tightly, making Zao Zao breathless: "Sister, why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?" The more she thought about it, the more afraid she became, Tears came out.
Zao Zao patted Liu'er on the back lightly, and said with a smile: "There is nothing to say about the past. Don't cry, sit down and talk slowly."
After stabilizing her mood, Liu Er asked, "Eldest sister, mother didn't know about this beforehand, did she?" Although Yu Xi was very busy, she could still see her every day, but she didn't have time to chat. In the past six months, she didn't feel that there was anything unusual about Yuxi. If she knew that her eldest sister had been missing for a month, Liu'er didn't think Yuxi could be so calm.
Zao Zao nodded and said: "Mother didn't know at first, and Dad told her after I was safe." Zao Zao wrote letters once a month. It happened that the day before the accident, she wrote a letter and went out. What happened to Zao Zao, Lu Fei didn't dare to hide it, so he wrote to Yun Qing.
Yun Qing couldn't be more clear about Yu Xi's temperament. Yu Xi would not be in a hurry when encountering any serious matter on weekdays, but she would be unsteady if it involved children. If she knew that Zao Zao was missing, she would definitely fall down. So Yunqing kept it a secret until Zaozao found it, and he told Yuxi about it.
Liu Erhou was terrified, and held on to Zao Zao's hand: "Elder Sister, don't go to war. Eldest Sister, can you just stay at home?" What happened this time really scared her.
Zao Zao smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, it's just an accident. I will be careful in the future, and nothing like this will happen again."
After talking for a long time, Liu Er, who was still in shock, was calmed down.
After calming down, Liu'er asked, "Eldest sister, how did you fall off the cliff?"
"I didn't fall off the cliff, I went down by myself." Seeing Liu'er's face turned pale, Zao Zao hurriedly said: "There are so many people behind, if you don't go down, you will die."
Although it has been so long, Liu'er's heart almost jumped out after hearing this: "Eldest sister, how dare you?" Jumping off the cliff would be dead.
Zao Zao corrected immediately: "I slid down, not jumped off. If I jumped down, I would still be alive. It's just that I slipped to the bottom of the cliff and couldn't get back up again."
Liu'er didn't believe this at all: "That's a cliff, how can I slide down?"
Zao Zao smiled and said: "It depends on the ability. If others can't, it doesn't mean I can't." As for the fact that she fell down the cliff and was injured all over her body, she didn't tell Liu Er.
"There must be a lot of beasts in this wilderness, and you are injured. How did you spend a month under the cliff?" It was her who couldn't hold on for a day.
"I have an elixir for wounds on me, and it feels better after applying the medicine. In addition, I carry a treasured knife that cuts iron like mud. With it, it is easy to find food." After a pause, Zaozao smiled He said: "It's also luck. There are no big wild animals under the cliff, but rabbits, pheasants and other small animals."
It's so easy to say, but in fact, Zao Zao developed a high fever the day before he fell into the bottom of the cliff. If it weren't for her amazing will, Yin Zhaofeng would have found a corpse.
Liu Er didn't believe it. Although she had never lived outside, she also knew the hardships outside. Especially in the mountains and forests, those days were even more difficult: "Sister, don't coax me. That month must have been very difficult."
Zao Zao paralyzed his hands and said with a smile, "Cough, I can't fool you. There are a lot of mosquitoes under the cliff, and I have a lot of bags bitten on me. The biggest bag is as big as a little finger, and it looks very scary."
Knowing that Zao Zao must pick it up, Liu Er said to her easily: "Sister, don't go anymore, it's too dangerous."
"There is no danger in fighting. Besides, I don't lead soldiers to fight, what can I do? I can't do things like housekeepers and directors." Zao Zao didn't want to continue this topic: "It's over, let's not talk about it." But you, how is the dowry embroidering? Is it almost ready?"
Liu'er knew that she couldn't convince Zao Zao, so she could only wait for her mother to come forward in this matter. Thinking of this, Liu'er didn't bother to let it go: "Eldest sister, you must have married earlier than me. You don't care about your dowry, but you are asking about me."
"Mother will take care of the dowry, so I don't need to bother you." Zao Zao didn't take the dowry seriously.
Women attach so much importance to dowry because if the husband's family and husband are unreliable, then the dowry is the capital they rely on for survival. But Zao Zao himself has an official position and a salary every month, so he is afraid that he will not be able to support himself.
Speaking of marriage, Liu Er said: "The Wu family originally wanted you and brother-in-law to get married at the beginning of the year, but my father refused."
Zao Zao was also very surprised when he first heard the news: "At first I thought it was my mother's objection!" His father always acted like he wanted to marry her earlier, but he didn't expect that when she was going to marry, he would be reluctant.
Liu'er smiled and said: "Father means that after he becomes emperor, let us marry as a princess. This way, it will be more decent." The princess's wedding ceremony is incomparable to that of a princess.
Zao Zao thought they were all the same, but seeing Liu'er's brows were smiling, she tactfully didn't say this thought: "That's right, the princess must have a big show."
After a pause, Zao Zao asked, "How is your wedding gown embroidered?"
"It's more than half of the embroidery, and I should be able to embroider it in half a year." Marriage is a lifetime thing, and it would be very bad if the wedding dress doesn't meet your wishes. Therefore, Liu'er has very high requirements for the wedding dress.
Zao Zao stood up and said: "Your wedding dress must be very beautiful, I'm going to see it after lunch."
Liu'er nodded and agreed with a smile: "Eldest sister, your wedding dress is all embroidered by the embroiderer. Elder sister, it's all right now anyway, so let me have a look at it now."
Upon hearing this, Shao Yao also said: "Princess, try it on! Only after you try it on can you see if the size fits. If it doesn't fit, you can ask Xiu Niang to change it."
Zao Zao nodded in agreement.
Shao Yao hurriedly opened the box and took out the wedding dress. Then she and Xiangli put on the wedding dress for Zao Zao.
Seeing Zao Zao in her wedding dress, Liu Er wanted to cover her eyes. Other girls are indescribably beautiful in their wedding dresses. But when her eldest sister put on her wedding dress, she felt like she was wearing the wrong dress no matter how she looked at it. But in order not to hurt Zao Zao, Liu Er kept her eyes open and said nonsense, and said with admiration: "It's very beautiful, but it's made a little bigger."
Zao Zao didn't look in the mirror, and she believed it when Liu Er said she was beautiful.
Shao Yao hurriedly said: "Ask Xiu Niang to change it."
Zao Zao shook her head and said, "Let's put it on for now, and try it on again two months before we get married. If it's still wide at that time, it's not too late to change it." It's not the embroiderer's problem that the clothes are too wide, but that she has been thin during this time. a lot.
Liu Er naturally heard the meaning in Zao Zao's words: "Then you have to make up for it during this time, and then you will be a beautiful bride."
