Su Xingyi drank the medicine with the help of others, and was freed after half a cup of tea.
As soon as Su Xingyi sat up on the bed, Nie Ying arranged for someone to bring in hot meals.
"Your Highness, this is our Dongjun's specialty. Please enjoy it."
After Nie Ying finished speaking, he led his men out of the room and stood guard outside.
Su Xingyi hadn't done things by himself for many days, so he was a little uncomfortable holding chopsticks.
After sitting for a long time, my body finally returned to normal.
After checking the food in front of me and making sure it was fine, I started eating it with confidence.
Su Xingyi seemed to have not eaten a full meal for many days. He finished all the food in less than half a cup of tea.
The timing seemed to be calculated just right. Nie Ying sent someone to deliver buckets of hot water, followed by brand new clothes.
It's a complete set of clothes from the inside out.
Su Xingyi was a little surprised that the clothes were all made of high-quality fabrics.
The old Emperor of Dongjun wanted to see him, and he actually prepared all these?
But on second thought, this should have been arranged by Nie Ying. After all, he couldn't go to see the old Emperor Dongjun in a dusty and sweaty state.
Otherwise, if he lost his manners and offended the old emperor, his life would be in danger!
Su Xingyi did not delay and asked someone to help him take a bath. Half an incense stick later, he lay down in the quilt with a refreshed body and fell asleep quickly.
In his dream, he saw Xiao Xi'er falling from the sky and throwing herself into his arms...
At the hour of Mao the next day, the old emperor opened his eyes, and the chief eunuch came in to report immediately.
"Your Majesty, Nie Ying sent a message last night saying they will enter the city at 9:00 PM today."
"Why didn't you inform me earlier? I wouldn't have to attend the court meeting today."
The chief eunuch said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is taking good care of you and has ordered that no one should disturb you."
"Hmph! He's quite filial! Call him to the side hall so I can question him in person. Meanwhile, let the Crown Prince know that he will be presiding over today's court meeting!"
"yes!"
"Your humble servant Wang Lin pays respects to Your Majesty."
"No need to be polite. Tell me quickly, is that person Su Xingyi from the Huayang County Princess's Mansion?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, it was Su Xingyi. We arrived in Huayang County before the New Year, but we never had the chance to do it. We only had the chance after Su Xingyi went out to buy things after the New Year."
"Did you hurt him?"
Wang Lin hesitated for a moment, "No, but we have been secretly investigating the Princess's Mansion recently and have made some important discoveries."
"What major discovery?"
"Su Xingyi's eldest son, Su Ning'an, is the son of the Princess of Xirong."
"What? Is this true?" The old emperor was surprised.
"Absolutely true! We can only successfully bring Su Xingyi back if he and his mother return to Xirong. In order to force the Xirong army to withdraw and reclaim the lost five cities, the Beiyi Emperor agreed to the Xirong's request to confer the title of King Fu on Su Ning'an. Since Su Xingyi is Su Ning'an's adoptive father, the Xirong royal family, grateful for Su Xingyi's upbringing, also petitioned the Beiyi court to confer him the title of King Shun. Now, Su Xingyi is King Shun."
"I understand. Go guard the city gate and have Nie Ying send the person directly to Zhaixing Tower."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After the old emperor gave the order, he had someone change into casual clothes. After breakfast, he went to the imperial study to take down Princess Fu'an's portrait and brought it to the Zhaixing Tower.
When Shangguan Yunxiao saw that it was his father who went to preside over the court meeting, he took the opportunity to slip out of the hall.
Shangguan Yu caught a glimpse of his retreating figure and frowned tightly.
So angry!
The grandfather and grandson are used to being lazy.
"Ninth Uncle, wake up." Shangguan Yunxiao nudged Shangguan Jinnian's arm. "Grandfather has slipped out of the palace again. Let's go find him."
Shangguan Jinnian suddenly sat up from the bed, "You're telling the truth. Shouldn't the Emperor be in court at this hour?"
"My Royal Grandfather asked the Crown Prince to preside over the court meeting. I sneaked out and went to my Royal Grandfather's bedroom. I searched the imperial study but found no one there. They've already left the palace. Let's go quickly. These are the places my Royal Grandfather likes to go."
"good."
The uncle and nephew packed up and left the palace at 9:00 PM.
Su Xingyi looked at the prosperous capital of Dongjun and was inadvertently dazzled by the wealth.
Everywhere you look, there are tall buildings and the sounds of hawking are heard one after another, making it very lively.
"Huanghuang, don't lose me, don't fly too low."
Xiao Xier lay on Huanghuang's back, her eyes fixed on Su Xingyi's carriage.
"Master, I won't lose you. Do you want to go downstairs and find a place to eat?"
"I have two big meat patties, two big chicken legs, and a little fish prepared for you."
Xiao Xier said as she took out a small fish strip from the bag in her arms and passed it to Huang Huang's mouth, "Hurry up and eat it."
Huanghuang lowered her head, picked up the fish and ate them. She had already eaten five small fish strips in a row.
[I still want to eat big meat pie!]
Xiao Xier pursed her lips and smiled. Huanghuang was hungry, but was too embarrassed to tell her directly.
Xiao Xier tore the meat pie into small pieces and fed them to Huanghuang.
The little hand shook accidentally, and the two small meat patties slipped down.
"What did you say? The Imperial City Department asked you to take up the job, but they didn't even consider your abilities. There's no such thing as a free lunch. Only a fool like you would believe it."
Su Xingyi looked in the direction of his sight and saw two small unknown objects falling from the sky and landing accurately in the palm of a young man of about fifteen or sixteen years old with a yellowish complexion.
"Ah! It really is like pie falling from the sky, or a meat pie, the kind that gets torn into pieces."
"Hahahaha...you really are so lucky..."
Su Xingyi looked up and saw Huanghuang flapping its wings and circling in the sky.
Huanghuang has been following him all the way!
Thinking of the scene where Xiao Xier fell from the sky last night, he looked up and took a closer look.
Seeing that there was nothing on Huanghuang's back, he felt a little lost.
It was just a dream.
The weather is still very cold now. If Xiao Xier flies from Huayang County to Dongjun Capital, won’t she be frozen to death?
Fortunately, I didn’t come!
When he was about to look away, he saw Xiao Xier's little head suddenly appear on Huanghuang's back, and he was immediately startled.
“Oh, it’s so hot!”
The sun was shining brightly at this time. Xiao Xier had just finished eating a meat pie and her body was warm. The hat on her head felt a little hot, so she raised her hand and took off the hat, revealing her black hair.
"Master, put on your hat quickly! If the people on the ground notice you, they'll shoot you down!"
!!!
Xiao Xier put on her hat again.
Su Xingyi rubbed his eyes hard and looked up carefully.
This time, some differences were discovered. There was a small bulge on Huanghuang's back.
You really can’t tell if you don’t look closely!
Su Xingyi was surprised and happy, and Xiao Xier followed him.
Nie Ying looked up, then quickly looked away, whispering, "I didn't expect this big bird to be so human-like and actually follow me."
"Don't hurt it, it's my baby daughter's pet."
"Don't worry, we won't hurt it."
Half an incense stick later, the group stopped in the back alley of Zhaixing Tower.
"The prince has arrived."
"Hurry, land on the roof of this building. No, go see which room on the top floor is empty. I'll jump in."
[good]
