Chapter 23 Something Big Is Going to Happen in August



There was a drizzle in the sky.

Just like the day when I sent the Duke back home, it was full of sorrow and melancholy.

The difference is that this time Prince Ning is going to the vassal state to take up his post, and he can never return to the imperial capital without an imperial edict!

The carriages that had almost emptied the entire palace were connected end to end, with no end in sight.

She must be bringing the little princess into the palace now. When will they meet again?

Xiao Xizi walked up to Xia Yu and said, "Your Highness, it's a long journey. You must not catch a cold. Let's get back to the carriage."

Of the servants sent by the Duke's Mansion, he left Baizhi and Zisu to look after Shen Yuyao. He would take Xiao Xizi, Xiao Huanzi, Nanny Wang and other old servants from the Duke's Mansion with him to Yanjing. He only hoped that one day when she arrived in Yanjing, these familiar servants would make her feel happier.

Maybe, he and she can start over?

Xia Yu's vision was a little blurry. He stood on the top of Qixia Mountain, looking towards the direction of the capital.

After walking and stopping for a whole day and night, standing on the top of Qixia Mountain, I can still see the imperial city in the distance.

I wonder if it is also drizzling in the palace where she is?

In his previous life, when he left the imperial city, the sun was shining brightly and he was eager to go to the vassal state. At that time, there was only the ambition of hegemony that was enough to make people boil in his heart, which was completely opposite to this life.

In this life, he even considered the possibility of feigning illness to disobey the imperial order and stay in the capital.

"Your Highness, after passing Qixia Mountain, you will no longer be able to see the Imperial City." Xiao Huanzi came over with an umbrella.

"Let's go." Xia Yu turned his head away from looking south and told Xiao Xizi, "Let the convoy move as fast as possible!"

Xiao Xizi: "Yes."

"Go ask every Baoyuan store along the way if they have any messages from the princess. Don't miss a single one!"

"yes!"

......

Great Xia Dynasty, Yuxiu Palace.

"A jasper tree stands tall, with thousands of green silk ribbons hanging down. I wonder who cuts the delicate leaves, the February spring breeze is like a pair of scissors."

"How many more do I have to memorize..." Xu Yunxuan was nearly on the verge of collapse. She had been locked up in Yuxiu Palace for three whole months. Every day, she recited these ancient poems non-stop. Every time she recited a piece, Shen Yuyao would annotate it.

Now we have only reached the stage of He Zhizhang's "Ode to Willow" from the Tang Dynasty in their world, as well as the Song, Yuan, Ming, Qing, Republic of China and modern times... When will it end!

"After I finish this commentary, I will take Xiao Xianbao to stroll around the Imperial Garden."

Shen Yuyao lived comfortably in these poems and songs every day, but Xu Yunxuan and Xiao Xianbao were extremely tormented. They had obviously reached the limit of their tolerance for the boring and cold life in the palace.

[If I had known this mortal world was so dull and boring, I wouldn't have come here.]

[If I hadn't come... wouldn't my beautiful mother be alive today?]

[Pooh, pooh, pooh...it doesn't count!]

[It's all because of that scumbag father, the prince. He took Xiaoyan and Lin'an to Yanjing to enjoy life, leaving my mother and me to suffer here!]

【Biased eyes... Trash! Trash! 】

Now this little fairy baby is eight months old. Every day he crawls from the left side of the bed to the right side, and he curses King Ning every time he crawls!

I wonder if Ning Wang Xia Yu in Yanjing is feeling anxious?

[When can I escape from this palace? ]

When can I escape from this palace?

Xu Yunxuan and Xiao Xianbao were thinking exactly the same thing at this moment!

If Shen Yuyao doesn't find a way to take these two funny guys out of the palace, she's really afraid that they might cause a big disaster!

"Zi Su, take today's manuscript to Huagai Palace and hand it over to Master Zhang. I will take the little princess to stroll around the Imperial Garden."

Shen Yuyao handed the box of manuscripts to Zi Su, turned around and picked up Xia Xiaoxian.

"Even though it's just a walk in the Imperial Garden, it's better than being trapped in Yuxiu Palace all the time!" Xu Yunxuan was really feeling suffocated.

Shen Yuyao changed Xia Xiaoxian into a pink gauze dress and tied two small buns on her head, with a small fluffy flower pinned on each bun.

He really looks like the little fairy boy sitting in front of Guanyin.

"The little princess is not even one year old yet, but her facial features have fully grown. She is so pretty!" Bai Zhi looked at this delicate little person with love from the bottom of her heart.

Shen Yuyao took a small round fan and handed it to Bai Zhi. "It's not as hot as June, but the mosquitoes are very fierce. You have to fan the little princess."

Bai Zhi responded softly, picked up the little princess, and followed Shen Yuyao out of the Yuxiu Palace.

"Hah, what a nice smell!" At this time of year, the fragrance of the golden and silver osmanthus trees in the Imperial Garden filled the air, a sweet and cloying aroma. Xu Yunxuan's mood brightened instantly, and she even started to bounce as she walked.

Although both are mothers, Xu Yunxuan is much more lively than Shen Yuyao.

Shen Yuyao smiled. She often heard Xu Yunxuan say that in their world, 15-year-old girls could only read, sing and dance, and they would not start to appreciate others until they were in their prime.

In their world, most people will marry when they reach the prime of their lives, and those who marry when they are middle-aged are actually the majority!

Shen Yuyao was very envious in her heart that she could have 15 more years of carefree youth.

"Bang!" There seemed to be a sound of something falling into the water. Shen Yuyao came back to her senses and saw a purple dress floating on the lake.

Isn’t it Xu Yunxuan?

"Oh no! Xu fell into the water!"

"Help...someone fell into the water!" Although Shen Yuyao had learned martial arts when she was young, she really couldn't swim. She could only desperately call for help. Bai Zhi also hugged the little princess and helped call for help.

"thump..."

A green figure suddenly stepped into the water and carried Xu out of the water in a few seconds!

When Shen Yuyao saw that the person who saved her was the third prince, Prince Qin Xia Jing!

"Thank you, Your Highness the King of Qi, and may the King of Qi live long and healthy!" Shen Yuyao turned sideways and bowed.

"No need to be so polite, Princess. It's just a small favor!" The King of Qin bowed in return. "This lady-in-waiting appears to be fine. I will go change my clothes."

"Farewell, King Qin!"

After the King of Qin walked away, Xu Yunxuan said quietly, "This prince is sick! I was just playing in the water, is it necessary to arrest me?"

"Playing with water?" Shen Yuyao was a little dazed. "You mean, you are playing with water?"

"Yeah, it's so shallow, you can only play in the water, definitely not swim!"

"Swimming, do you know how?"

"I don't understand. I was the one who called for help, and the King of Qin went down into the lake to save you!"

"Does that mean the King of Qin is a hero who saves the beauty?" Xu Yunxuan seemed to understand that she was rescued by someone just now, although it was not necessary!

"Speaking of which, that prince has a very good face, with beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and a gentle and refined demeanor!"

Shen Yuyao felt her head start to hurt again.

[The beautiful mother concubine was probably angered to death by this concubine.]

Didn't Xu Yunxuan say she's already 22 years old in her own world?

[They are all 7 years older than my mother...]

[Of course, compared to me, you're still too young! Haha]

Shen Yuyao finally felt much more comfortable after listening to the little fairy's voice.

"Hurry back and change clothes, the weather is getting cold!"

[Yes...it's getting cold...Empress...]

[Oh no! Something terrible is going to happen to my mother!]
