Xie Songhua was a little confused, as if she couldn't understand Du Huo's words, but also seemed to hear every word she said.
It was just hard to digest for a while.
She looked at the woman in front of her, and her voice seemed to be squeezed out of her throat, "Auntie, you mean... the prince might... still be under that curse?"
Duhuo was stunned for a moment, then nodded helplessly, "Your word is indeed more accurate. Isn't this kind of thing a curse?
But I don’t know whether the prince has ever escaped that thing..."
She didn't know if it was Xie Songhua's illusion, but she felt that Du Huo's gaze seemed to linger on the ring on her hand.
But when she looked carefully, she saw that she was looking at the embroidery on her skirt.
"Are these the clothes your maid made for you?"
Probably wanting to ease the current atmosphere, Xie Songhua also breathed a sigh of relief, and then nodded: "Yes! Fortunately, there is a green willow. Otherwise, none of us here can do needlework, and we won't even know if our clothes are torn."
What should I do?"
The topic suddenly changed, and the sky outside seemed to become a little brighter. Duhuo smiled and said: "The thing I just talked about is actually to let you know that this thing... don't touch it easily.
If you really use those things on the battlefield, it will not only be a matter of human life, but it may also damage your own luck.
Now that you have a child and carry another person's life with you, you have to be even more cautious."
Gu Jinyuan also immediately looked at his belly, gritted his teeth and said, "Thank you, aunt, for thinking about it for me. I have no way to answer you on this matter.
In fact, if possible, I don’t want to get to that point.”
She has already talked about this, so she will naturally not say anything more.
"That's all, I'll go to the back mountain to look for medicinal materials. There are several warm soups in this place. The surrounding environment is different from other places. I can probably find some rare things."
Xie Songhua wanted to stand up to see her off, but she pushed her back and said, "You just need to be pregnant now. It's best not to go out. If you get cold again, it will be the two of us who suffer."
Thinking of his own body, Xie Songhua quickly sat down again and said, "Then aunt will come back early."
Xiaoqing also wanted to follow him out, but was a little afraid.
Xie Songhua dismissed her quickly, "It's not like there are no other people here, there are many secret guards here! What's more, my aunt has arrangements outside, so just go with her! I don't trust her alone."
Xiaoqing was really happy and jumped up and followed him out.
In front of Duhuo, Xiaoqing's temperament became much more cheerful and lively.
After the two people disappeared, Cui Liu came over, lowered his voice, and asked nervously: "Princess, do you really believe what Dr. Lone Living said just now?"
This question made Xie Songhua not sure how to speak.
Before today, she actually had great trust in living alone.
But what she said today was so unbelievable and contained so much information that Xie Songhua didn't know whether to believe it or not.
She couldn't help but raise her head and look at Cuiliu, "Then do you think it's credible?"
Cuiliu obviously did not expect that her master would throw this question back to her.
However, she thought calmly for a while, and then replied: "I just think that these things are unheard of, and the blood sacrifice formation that the independent doctor mentioned is a bit scary..."
Her eyes fell on Xie Songhua's belly, "Anyway, Princess, you are still pregnant with the child, so it's not easy to tell you much. If this slave's mother were here, she would definitely say that it is very unlucky to speak like this.
"
Cuiliu's angle was a bit tricky, but Xie Songhua's mood improved a lot. She stretched out and said, "Well, let's guess like this, and we probably won't be able to get a serious answer after guessing. That's all, first of all
Put all this aside and help me go out for a walk!
Now that the sun has risen outside, I won’t get too cold even if I put on a big cloak and go out, but sitting here all the time, I always feel uncomfortable everywhere.”
Cuiliu responded crisply, "My slave also thinks so. Now that it's safe here, the scenery is good, and the air is good, it's really time to go out and relax. Being stuck in the house every day will make people bored."
At this time, everything was completely white, and only this area of the yard was clean and tidy.
Looking out from the courtyard wall, you can see the snowy mountain tops in the distance.
Xie Songhua's mood was indeed much better. She looked towards the direction of the capital and said, "I don't know how my parents are doing. Living in the new place is much more convenient, but I'm afraid that the one in the East Palace has some bad intentions. If
Ask her to find her, I'm afraid there will be more trouble."
Cuiliu said with relief: "Although we have changed places, there are still secret guards around the two elders! If something really happens, they are not fools and will naturally send us the news. Don't think too much about it.
"
He said with a smile and said: "Besides, that one is still busy building his own connections in the palace! The Crown Princess and Concubine Zhao are gone. The East Palace is her world now, but her foundation is not stable.
, the Qi family is someone who can't hold up the wall, and the master in our house is not a person who can't handle things clearly. I guess she is eager to break off the relationship with the Jiang family master and his wife now, so that no one will gossip behind her back and ruin her.
A good thing."
Xie Songhua thought about it, this was really Jiang Shuhua's style, and smiled and said: "You know her thoughts well."
Just as Cuiliu thought, Jiang Shuhua really had no intention of caring about the Jiang couple at this time.
Now, although no one really said anything in the backyard of the East Palace, everything still came together for her.
It was the prince who personally brought over the cards from the East Palace's internal affairs. "I don't want to pay attention to the matters in the backyard for a while. Since no one can do this for the time being, I must ask you to pay more attention."
.
Now inside and outside here, looking at it, you are the only one who can be trusted. Don’t be like them..."
The prince did not say anything else, but Jiang Shuhua understood that the prince was really disappointed with them.
Jiang Shuhua's face showed a bit of sadness. She did not refuse the pair of cards, but said distressedly: "Your Highness, no matter what, I will always be by your side, but... what I care about most is your body, Your Highness."
, Since what happened last time, His Highness has become thinner and thinner, and I feel really uncomfortable looking at it."
The prince seems to have lost his soul now. Not to mention doting on the woman in the backyard, he is too lazy to take care of the affairs of the previous dynasty.
Fortunately, there was still some time before the Lantern Festival at this time, so he could still relax and unwind, and the things outside could not reach him.
However, in this busy situation, there was still one thing that the prince enjoyed doing and really put a lot of thought into.
It's just that such things are secret, and no one except the personal eunuch who follows the prince knows.
The prince just spent time in the study every day, occasionally painting, and the paintings were all about Zhao Mingxi, and occasionally he just looked at the princess.
Other times, he only went to one place, and that was the courtyard next to the study.
Generally speaking, when he arrived at the side courtyard, he would first carry a jar of wine at the door, which he had asked the palace officials to prepare there early, and then slowly walk inside, open the door, and walk to
In front of the cabinet inside, touch the mechanism and walk into the hole that appears on the ground.
