Suddenly running into a warm embrace, Xiao Xiruo felt a cold fragrance blowing against her face. Her consciousness, which was hazy a second ago, suddenly showed signs of waking up.
Because the smell is so familiar.
Even without looking up to confirm, she still realized that the person holding her was Feng Wuyan.
"Leave this here to me and let Xianxue and the others take you back to the palace immediately."
The young man's voice still had no warmth, even a little colder than when chatting on the carriage.
Because he felt a strong coldness from the silent little sick ghost in front of him. The coldness had obviously eroded her body, making her clothes feel cold.
He suddenly regretted not asking her why she came out, and used this reason to reject her, leaving her in the imperial city.
"No, I am fine..."
Feeling the gradually tightening strength on her body and the heat coming through her robe, Xiao Xiruo's energy also returned a lot.
The wounded have been treated in an orderly manner, and the doctors who treat them are all dedicated. Even the hundreds of soldiers transferred from the Forbidden Army and the patrol battalion are quietly performing their tasks at this moment.
Everything seems to be on the right track, and her purpose of helping Feng Wuyan and getting rid of the Xiao family's reputation seems to have been achieved...
However, she was a little worried.
However, in the face of her resistance, the villain, who was very talkative before, only said two words: "Go back."
The tone was not cold, but it gave her no room for negotiation.
And what about Shen Mian, who understood his master's expression?
As soon as he turned his head, he went to find Xue Xue and others.
But coming with Feng Xue was Feng Yehan, who was dressed in purple. As if he knew his master was stupid, Wu Ge said:
"The empress is in poor health, how can she come out in the snow to supervise the work? When the prince heard this, he became anxious, and his subordinates couldn't stop him. Why don't you come out now..."
"Wu Ge."
Before Wu Ge could finish his words, he was interrupted by Feng Yehan with an unkind look on his face.
The man's phoenix eyes were slightly narrowed, and his gaze towards Xiao Xiruo showed reproach for the first time.
Xiao Xiruo, who had received negative reminders for a long time, knew this very well.
It's just that she didn't expect that Feng Yehan would come in person, and that Feng Wuyan would help her get rid of the cold.
After struggling slightly to get out of Feng Wuyan's arms, Xiao Xiruo finally looked at her cousin with a smile.
"I'm sorry, Xiruo has made my cousin worried."
"Go back to the palace."
Feng Yehan rarely talks to others. Even if he is closer to Xiao Xiruo now, the only words he can squeeze out are these three words that are neither salty nor bland.
Then, he received an "ok" with an unusually sweet tone as he didn't want to argue with him.
Having said that, the girl had already boarded the carriage with the assembled Xue Xue and others.
Xue Xiang stepped onto the carriage frame, whipped up his horse, and the carriage sped away under the gaze of many people.
Leaning on the carriage tiredly, Xiao Xiruo felt that the two bosses should be satisfied now, right?
I want her to leave, okay, why not let her leave?
However, before she could stay warm in the carriage, she was frightened by the sudden negative emotion and staggered.
Raising her hand to lift the car curtain, the dilapidated and chaotic streets receded in her eyes. She could only look at someone's slim and tall back in the distance, speculating on the sudden negative emotions.
Why is he, the great villain, angry again...
"Master, then, the man who set the fire is awake."
After hesitating for a long time, Shen Mian still reported the matter weakly despite his master's extremely cold aura.
The master has not spoken since the imperial concubine got into the car. Others don't know what the master is thinking. Doesn't he, who has watched the master grow up since childhood, not know?
All ferocious beasts like to enclose territory, especially the wolf whose master will bite off the prey's throat with just one bite, making it difficult for it to resist...
No matter what the master's purpose is for taking care of the imperial concubine, the master has already classified her as his own territory.
How can we allow others to comment on whether the master's people want to stay or leave?
However, His Highness the Night King not only said nothing, he only said three words to make the imperial concubine obedient and get on the carriage directly...
That's all, he is still hanging around here, saying that he wants to watch her achievements for his cousin.
So Shen Mian theoretically felt that the master was not angry, but wanted to kill someone.
"Give him some medicine, and then find a way to lure Feng Qi's people there. Remember, everything doesn't have to be logical, but it must be done cleanly."
Feng Qi must know that this evidence was sent by someone else, but he has to use it to fight back against the Hua family.
Since Queen Mother Hua and Feng Qi both want to cause trouble for him, he doesn't mind lighting the fire for them.
"yes."
Early the next morning, the Shoukang Palace was as silent as cicadas.
"Damn it! What's wrong with Xiao Xiruo? She has to follow whatever the emperor does? What? Is she in love with that bastard?"
Raising her hands to rub her temples over and over again, Queen Mother Hua got the bad news from Jiayue before she even got out of bed.
Overnight, the emperor, who should have been despised by thousands of people, actually stabilized the situation. Not only did he successfully place the injured, he also sent people to count the losses of the major families.
For a time, both the people of the capital and some of the wealthy families were friendly towards the emperor.
Even the people in the Forbidden Army and Patrol Battalion can only acquiesce to his orders now.
And all of this has something to do with Xiao Xiruo, who was so troublesome that he sent people to knock on the doors of every house in the middle of the night.
"The people sent by my father said that Xiao Xiruo was so shameless last night that he let the palace maid who knocked on the door fail to do something and went to the street to publicize it."
Speaking of this matter, Hua Suyi was also amazed.
It's just that it's not admiration, but scorn.
When Empress Dowager Hua heard this, she was so angry that she had a headache. She didn't give up until Jiayue mentioned the Xie family.
The explosion last night was really terrible. The Xie family's already not very good reputation was ruined on the spot. It may be difficult for them to gain a foothold in the family in the future.
The Xie family has produced three imperial masters and is also King Qi’s maternal family. Now that the Xie family has suffered a heavy blow, King Qi’s family may have to hide their tail between their legs.
But before the Queen Mother was happy for a while, she heard the words "Xiao Xiruo" from Jiayue again...
But this time, what she got was that King Qi's family supported the disaster relief effort through Xiao Xi's request for medical treatment and medicine.
Not only did he help last night, he also helped the emperor set up a porridge shed this morning. While serving porridge, he sent people to repair the collapsed house, saying that he would undertake all the reconstruction work on East Street.
"What does this mean? Did Feng Qi take the wrong medicine?"
Queen Mother Hua was puzzled.
Logically speaking, Feng Qi should be rushing to investigate the case right now, wishing he could turn the entire capital upside down.
Fortunately, now, he was not in a hurry to help his two uncles get away with the crime. Instead, he sent all his people to do it...
Something is wrong.
There is absolutely something wrong with this!
Just when the Queen Mother Hua was brainstorming and trying to get some insights from this matter, the messenger from the Hua family rushed into the palace in a furious manner.
"Queen Mother Qi, our people were captured by King Qi..."
