Unexpectedly, on the night when she left the palace, she had just turned off the lights and was about to rest, when there was a sudden sound from the window.
Song Chen immediately took a defensive stance vigilantly.
A chuckle appeared in the darkness, "It's me."
Song Chen quickly lost his posture and jumped out of bed, "Why are you here?"
The words are full of surprises.
Cang Xiuxuan walked up to Song Chen step by step with a smile on his face, took her hand and said, "I miss you."
In the past few days, I have been dealing with things in the palace non-stop, and I have been living with a mask on my face. Only when I see her do I feel that I am a real person.
Especially now, after leaving the palace and being alone with her in this house, he seemed to be alive again.
The weather gradually turned cooler after the rain. Cang Xiuxuan bent over and hugged Song Chen directly and walked to the bed, "Go to bed early, I will leave early tomorrow morning."
Even in the darkness, Song Chen could see his frown and the tiredness in his tone.
"Did you leave the palace directly after handling the matter?"
Song Chen sat on the bed obediently, but pulled him and didn't let him go.
Cang Xiuxuan put his arm around her shoulders and sat next to her, "Well, I'll come over after finishing the matter."
"I just had a few bites for dinner, and I definitely didn't take a break at noon."
When Song Chen heard what he said, he could imagine how he spent the day, and felt very distressed.
"Just wait here. I'll get you some food. After eating, you can have a good sleep. I'll call you when the time comes tomorrow."
After saying that, Song Chen quickly got out of bed, put on his clothes and walked out.
Cang Xiuxuan couldn't bear to have her busy working so late, so he grabbed her arm and said, "No need to be busy, just sleep with me for a while."
His voice sounded really tired. Song Chen knew that he would definitely follow him when he left, so he could only turn around and return to the bed.
"Well, let's get some sleep first."
With the warm fragrance in her arms, Cang Xiuxuan only felt satisfied.
It took a lot of effort to get here from the palace without being discovered, but at this moment Cang Xiuxuan felt that it was very worthwhile.
He was alone in the palace and could not sleep well no matter what.
Holding Song Chen at this moment, he soon fell asleep. Song Chen listened to his even breathing and called him softly in his ear. He had no intention of waking up, which showed how deeply he slept.
Shen.
Song Chen came out of his arms gently, covered him with a quilt, closed the door, and went directly to the kitchen.
Previously, someone was responsible for their food and drink in the palace. Song Chen had never used the space in the palace. In a place like that, someone might be watching her at all times. She would not show her trump card at a time like this.
.
It's different now that they are back here. They are all their own people here. Song Chen knows clearly when there is someone around him.
Song Chen came out of the room and went directly to the kitchen. The yellowish candlelight quickly attracted Cang Liu.
"Girl, are you hungry? You go back and wait for me to ask the cook to cook."
Song Chen raised his head and saw him, "You're here just in time. Help me kill this chicken, clean it up, and stew it to replenish your master's health."
Cang Liu reacted immediately and asked softly, "Master is back?"
Song Chen smiled and nodded, "I fell asleep now. He looks very tired. Let him drink the chicken soup tomorrow morning before leaving."
Tonight, Song Chen would just cook some porridge for him.
There happens to be chicken here, and the shredded chicken porridge is also delicious.
"Then please tell me, my name is Qiu An and it's the same. It's not a problem for you to endure it by yourself like this."
Cang Liu was relatively rational and did not get so excited that he forgot everything just because his master was back. Now that Song Chen was doing these things here in the middle of the night, he felt it was still a little inappropriate.
"Your master has a heavy mouth. He never had a few full meals in the palace. Now that he's back, we can't let him be hungry again."
Song Chen didn't stop moving as he spoke, and the medicinal materials used in the chicken soup had also been cleaned.
Seeing this, Cang Liu didn't dare to delay any longer, and quickly cleaned up a chicken. The next step was Song Chen's business.
She found a clay pot, put the whole chicken into the pot, and then poured water to cover the chicken body. For some reason, Cang Liu felt a feeling in her heart when she saw the water that Song Chen poured in.
Thoughts, that water... must be very sweet.
"Girl, after you finish the work here, go and have a rest. I'll watch the fire here. Tell me what you need to pay attention to."
I saw Song Chen put a few Codonopsis root and some wolfberry into the pot.
"There is really something we need to help with. There is a chicken in the corner over there. You can kill it too. We will make a pot of soup later and we will drink it tomorrow."
Just now when Cang Liu was killing the chicken, Song Chen was thinking about the people who were following her. Everyone in the palace has not been eating well these days, and now it is time to make up for it together.
At this time, the chicken soup is simmering, and you will have delicious chicken to eat early tomorrow morning.
"What kind of chicken is this? It's really quiet. I didn't hear any movement before."
Cang Liu walked over according to the position mentioned by Song Chen, and sure enough he saw a plump old hen squatting in the corner over there. At this time, it was rare to see a chicken with such a plump body.
"Girl, where did this chicken come from? It looks pretty good."
Cangliu didn't think much about it, he was just curious.
Song Chen felt a little embarrassed. He was only thinking about the chicken just now, but he forgot where he came from.
There is also the problem Cangliu had before.
Isn't it quite quiet? She just threw the chicken out of the space. Even after leaving the space, the chicken must obey her. Even if he knew that he was about to die, Song Chen wouldn't let it
Even if you toss it, it doesn’t dare to do it.
But she couldn't tell Cangliu about this.
"Your master brought it here when he came."
Song Chen really couldn't find any excuse, so he had no choice but to rely on Cang Xiuxuan. Anyway, he had provided a lot of cover for her. When he came today, no one except himself noticed him at all.
She said that he came with two chickens, even if she said that he brought Niu Cangliu with him, they couldn't help but believe it.
Sure enough, as soon as Song Chen said these words, Cang Liu immediately became quiet, and there was no longer any problem.
"After killing the chicken, you go and rest. I'll cook some porridge, but you can't watch."
Song Chen lowered his head and looked at the other pot. The light was too dim to see clearly. "Add another light. I'll go back and find out if he wakes up first. You can help me stir it up after it's done."
Cangliu nodded, "Don't worry, girl, I won't be confused."
This was absolutely true. Song Chen didn't believe it a little, so he could only walk to the room quickly.
Standing outside the door, Song Chen listened attentively to what was going on inside. Cang Xiuxuan's breathing was still as steady and even as before.
