When Ling Hua finally sent a letter, she took the letter and read it with relish. The merchants had already formed a pattern, and the trade at the border region was not bad.
In the letter, Ling Hua had also mentioned that the King of the South Yue would be attacking North Qiang in the future, which made Hu Xiao worried. The strength of the South Yue and the strength of the North Qiang were not on the same level.
"I wonder what Royal Brother is thinking, how could he have such a plan, it’s really ridiculous!" Hu Xiao sighed, her hand tightly holding onto the letter, her emotions became complicated.
Zhi Lan stood behind her, her eyes inadvertently sweeping through the contents of the letter, she immediately frowned and said: "Esteemed Empress, do you want to write a letter to advise the Emperor?"
She thought that King of the South Yue would somewhat listen to the Empress’ words.
Seeing that, Hu Xiao shook her head, and rejected her suggestion: "It’s useless, Royal Brother is stubborn, no matter how reasonable what I say, he will not listen."
Hu Xiao understood the King of the South Yue, if not she would not be so worried.
Since she said it like that, Zhi Lan had no other choice.
"Forget it, let’s just ignore them and fight first." Hu Xiao stood up and said helplessly. She read the contents of the letter a few times, feeling happy and worried about the news, but she quickly calmed down.
After the meal, Hu Xiao laid on the bed lazily, but she could not fall asleep. Seeing that, Zhi Lan encouraged her to go out and walk around.
"It doesn’t seem like it will end up that way. What’s there to go over to? It’s better to stay inside the Bedchamber to rest." Hu Xiao yawned, she blinked her eyes, looked at the top of the mahogany bed, and looked to be deep in thought.
In fact, she was now empty-headed and thinking of nothing.
"Esteemed Empress, you’ve just eaten your fill and went to sleep before waiting for the food to be digested. Aren’t you afraid of having a small belly?" This was what Hu Xiao often said, she was often worried that her muscles would turn into her stomach.
Hearing this, Hu Xiao jumped up from the bed, and immediately jumped. She touched her belly, thinking, if I eat until I’m full, I’ll sleep, if I sleep, I’ll eat until I’m full, if this goes on, I’ll definitely have a small belly.
"The sun is just right. It’s better to go out and bask in the sun while lying in bed!" Hu Xiao spoke as she straightened her clothes, and then walked out.
Hu Xiao slowly walked towards the direction of the imperial garden.
"Hey, have you guys heard that the Emperor is about to choose a show? I wonder which young miss is so lucky to be able to come to the palace?"
"I only hear the new person laughing and not the old people crying. It’s going to be lively in the palace for a long time."
"That’s right, that’s right. I like this kind of activity the most. I can see beautiful girls again."
"Right now, the Empress only dotes on the harem. I wonder what the Empress’s mood is after hearing this news."
The palace maid were huddled up as they chattered, and did not notice Hu Xiao who was standing not far from them at all.
Hu Xiao listened on every single one of their words, and in that moment, she felt extremely unhappy in her heart.
Zhi Lan snorted, and indirectly warned the palace maid to be quiet.
Seeing him, the palace maid s all remained silent, their hearts tensed up, and quickly bowed towards Hu Xiao.
"This servant greets Empress."
Hu Xiao stood with her hands behind her back, she snorted coldly, did not bother to pay attention to them, and directly left.
All they left behind were the nervous looking palace maid. They were afraid in their hearts, worried that Hu Xiao would come and settle the score with them later.
"Empress, where are you going? Wait for me." Zhi Lan quickly followed behind Hu Xiao. She could see that Hu Xiao was angry.
"Where else? I want to go find Qin Shuo. His skin is itchy, I’ll beat him up." Hu Xiao said as she grinded her teeth. Everyone in the East Court knew that the Empress dared to hit the Emperor.
Zhi Lan was scared stiff by her words and she immediately stopped walking. She thought to herself, I can’t get involved in the matters between these two grandma.
At this time, Qin Shuo was discussing with Yin Fufeng inside the Imperial Study about how to give the imperial families a marriage. Amongst the imperial relatives, there were a few that were not married.
As the two of them were talking, suddenly, Hu Xiao barged in. She had an overbearing aura, with her sleeves raised, it looked like she was about to hit someone.
She rushed towards Qin Shuo, who stared at her blankly. He was stupefied and did not know what had happened.
Yin Fufeng noticed that something was amiss, he immediately grabbed onto the arm that Hu Xiao had just raised, and the doubt in his eyes became more obvious.
It was obvious that her sister-in-law was going to beat her cousin. What was wrong with these two people? Did they have a fight again?
Hu Xiao was famous for her irritable temper, Yin Fufeng knew this well, he stood between the two of them and asked patiently: "Cousin sister, what’s wrong, why did you hit my cousin?"
Not only had Cousin not done anything wrong, he had even been actively thinking of a way to solve the problem of Xiuxiu.
This was strange!
Qin Shuo frowned, he pushed Yin Fufeng away and said: "Yin Fufeng, you can leave, we will talk to her."
Qin Shuo stood up and asked Hu Xiao, "Xiao-Xiao, why are you so angry, who made you angry?"
Qin Shuo thought that Hu Xiao had suffered from a grievance and could not help but be worried in her heart.
Which bastard pissed off his woman, damn it!
"Elite talent show, your mind is filled with the matter of talent show. Since that’s the case, the two of us should leave. I don’t want to stay here, I’ve had enough." Hu Xiao placed her hands on her waist, and shouted loudly.
She once again suggested an explanation. This was the word that Qin Shuo didn’t want to mention the most.
He had told Hu Xiao a long time ago not to bring up the matter of them leaving each other ever again. And just as Hu Xiao kept bringing it up, Qin Shuo got angry all of a sudden.
In reality, Qin Shuo did not understand what Hu Xiao meant. With a cold expression, he coldly spat out a few words: "You are simply insane."
With that, he ignored Hu Xiao.
He was angry, and Hu Xiao was naturally angry as well. Qin Shuo did something wrong and said that she had gone mad, that was too much!
Hu Xiao clenched her teeth, she raised her fist, and before Qin Shuo could regain his senses, her fist had fiercely smashed into Qin Shuo’s right eye.
"Let’s see if you’re crazy or me!" Hu Xiao glared at Qin Shuo, before turning and leaving angrily.
Qin Shuo held onto his swollen right eye, the pain made him unable to open his eyes, let alone stopping Hu Xiao. This woman was too violent, she did not say anything and immediately threw a punch at him, who would be able to take it!
Yin Fufeng opened his mouth wide, and then left gloomily. He would not touch Qin Shuo’s reverse scale.
The next day, Qin Shuo said that he was not sick at all, and looking at his current state, if the ministers saw him, they would definitely go against Hu Xiao.
Even though Qin Shuo was angry at Hu Xiao, he didn’t want to be separated from her, so he endured it all the while.
He had not gone to the morning assembly, nor was he in the palace. At this moment, he was in Mo Zhu’s courtyard, mumbling to himself.
