Chapter 43 Observing the Terrain

Just as the carriage bumped, Su Jiuer's center of gravity was unstable and she almost fell to the ground.

Yan Yunxiao grabbed her with his long arm and stabilized her figure.

Su Jiu'er was clearly not afraid of him, but she was always wary of him.

A hint of sadness flashed across his eyes, and Su Jiu'er turned back to look at him.

"here it is?"

She was a little confused, so she opened a corner of the carriage curtain and saw clearly the mighty carriage procession behind, followed by two groups of guards in armor, and she knew better.

But Yan Yunxiao unexpectedly explained in rare words, "Follow me to Tailing Temple."

Su Jiuer straightened her slightly messy black hair, her expression looking a little uncomfortable.

After all, she was also the late emperor's concubine. Although she had not slept with her yet, she was also the elder of Yan Yunxiao in name.

But now, as the concubine of the old emperor's son, I go to offer incense and pray for the old emperor. It sounds a bit comfortable and strange. I wonder if the old emperor, Izumi Izumi, will be angry with him as a filial son.

So he subconsciously asked, "Why does Your Majesty suddenly want to take my concubine with you?"

Yesterday, when giving Yan Yunlin the medicinal wine, Yan Yunlin asked her, but she refused, and Yan Yunlin felt sad for a while.

For Yan Yunxiao, there is actually no need to answer this question. As a monarch, he can take whomever he wants, so does he need a reason?

But after Yan Yunxiao heard this, he subconsciously thought about it. He opened the curtain on the other side of the car and looked away, landing in the direction of the palace.

Maybe it's because this magnificent palace looks majestic and heavily guarded, but in fact it is the most dangerous place, a bloody mouth that can eat people without blinking an eye.

Even when Concubine Song was worshiping Buddha in the Baoling Hall, he sent people to keep an eye on her, for fear that there would be another "accident" in the palace.

He stretched out his hand, and Zhao Shun, who was accompanying the carriage, handed over a food box. He took it and took it into the carriage, placed it on a small case and pushed it in front of Su Jiuer, "What? Does Su Fei mean she is unwilling?"

He raised his oppressive brows and his gloomy gaze fell on Su Jiu'er.

Su Jiuer avoided his gaze and whispered, "How dare I, my concubine."

Then he opened the food box and saw several exquisite pastries inside.

It was still a clever move. I thought that only Su Jiuer was carried into the carriage by Yan Yunxiao unconsciously and did not have breakfast. This time, these pastry shops could provide a cushion.

Su Jiuer could be said to have been hungry from last night to this morning. She thanked Yan Yunxiao and started eating happily.

She handed Yan Yunxiao a small piece of glutinous rice cake, "Your Majesty, please have some too." Then she opened her mouth and said, "Ah~"

Yan Yunxiao gently raised his hand and pinched the little wrist she pushed towards him, then turned her hand back and put the small piece of pastry in her hand into her mouth.

He doesn't eat.

I even don’t want to care about myself at all.

Su Jiuer had no choice but to give up and eat her own cakes.

The carriage arrived at the outskirts of Beijing at noon, and for a long time, Yan Yunxiao was looking out the window.

He raised the curtains on that side of the car window to a small corner. From this corner, his face could not be seen from the outside, but he could see most of the scenery outside the window.

He was leaning in the carriage, his posture was lazy and casual, but his eyes were gloomy, revealing a sense of shrewdness.

Su Jiu'er remained silent and tried to reduce her presence as much as possible while quietly observing Yan Yunxiao's subconscious actions.

Could it be that he was missing the old scenery of the imperial capital and was secretly feeling sad?

No, he should be observing the terrain.

According to Qingzhi, Yan Yunxiao went to Northern Xinjiang when he was twelve years old. This place was actually very unfamiliar to him. Looking at his thin lips pursed tightly, his index finger on his leg moved slightly from time to time.

Maybe he didn't even know he did this little move because he was preoccupied with thinking about things and it was an unconscious behavior.

She also followed Yan Yunxiao's example and took a brief look at the terrain on the outskirts of Beijing. In a blink of an eye, she saw green mountains, floating mist and warm emerald green, rosy clouds and steaming clouds. It was so beautiful.

Such a beautiful scenery did not come, which made her feel a chill in her heart. She always felt that there was a pair of cold eyes staring at her from behind.

She leaned out half of her face and looked behind the team, but she could only see the majestic carriages and guards accompanying them, and nothing else.

Yan Yunting put down the curtain in his hand in the carriage. His gentle and clear face always looked so kind and kind, perhaps because the corners of his lips seemed to always have an upward curve.

He saw half of Su Jiuer's face.

My heart was already full of curiosity about her face.

At noon, I stopped in a large inn on the outskirts of Beijing, but I just had a quick meal and then went on my way again. Su Jiuer's knee had a small bruise last night. Although it was not very painful, Yan Yan

Yunxiao told her not to get out of the car, but asked Qingzhi to bring the food to her in the carriage.

When Qi Meiren heard that the person in the carriage was Su Jiu'er, her eyes widened and she couldn't believe it. But when she saw Qingzhi among the people accompanying them, she couldn't help but beat her heart.

She stared at Yan Yunxiao's carriage along the way, as if she wanted to see a hole in the carriage to see if Su Jiu'er was inside.

Finally, as the sun was setting, the team arrived at Tailing Temple on Songhua Mountain.

Tailing Temple is located on the mountainside peak, and there are stairs in front of it, which is more convenient.

Behind Songhua Mountain are many peaks, and the top is a vast sea of ​​clouds, just like a fairyland.

The carriage stopped and settled at the foot of the mountain, and everyone got out of the carriage. Everyone looked a little tired after a day of boating and traveling.

Qi Meiren took the opportunity to stare at the leader's carriage, and then Yan Yunxiao easily jumped off the carriage with a person in his arms, and the host led a group of monks to kneel down and greet him.

Everyone with eyesight turned away from Yan Yunxiao's "improper" behavior, but there were still a few people who struggled to look towards Yan Yunxiao's arms.

Su Jiuer blushed with embarrassment and huddled in his arms, not daring to move.

It was just a small injury on the knee. Yan Yunxiao couldn't tolerate her rejection and just hugged her out.

Yan Yunxiao wrapped her tightly in a cloak. Qi Meiren didn't even see her clothes, but it was obvious when Qingzhi followed her closely.

She couldn't help but grit her teeth, and her nails dug into her flesh.

"Snapped!"

Qi Meiren slapped Chunhua with her backhand, lowered her voice and said harshly, "Didn't you say that His Majesty had abandoned her a long time ago?"

Last night, when I learned that His Majesty punished Concubine Su to kneel down in the Longhua Palace, she went to other sister palaces to show off her power. Now seeing that Su Jiuer not only did not anger His Majesty, but was protected by His Majesty in public.

In her arms, her face was slapped so hard.

I still don’t know how the sisters headed by Wang Meiren will ridicule her after returning to the palace!

Chunhua didn't dare to resist, and she was afraid that crying would attract attention, so she could only cover her face and say begging for mercy with tears in her eyes.

Shen Yu heard the movement here and glanced at Beauty Wang gently, showing a look of pity.

She is beautiful, but she is also stupid. She was used as a chess piece by her elder brother and sent to the palace. She thought she was going to fly up a branch and become a phoenix.

She looked behind her from a distance again, and her eyes met Yan Yunting's, and then she smiled shyly with a springy look on her face.
