Following Eunuch An's order to set off, the ox carriage, followed by a group of eunuchs, slowly headed towards the imperial palace.
As usual, Eunuch An handed the entrance token to the gate guard, and was allowed to pass, and the ox cart entered the palace.
It was almost dark.
In fact, going out to purchase goods would not take that long, but because this was an opportunity to leave the palace once a year, the eunuchs cherished it very much, and the time was naturally extended indefinitely.
Unless the purchased items were food, they would not be delivered to the uteruses of each concubine until the next day by the eunuchs.
It was dark and the road was difficult to walk on, and it was not very safe. Chu Qi simply asked Shi Qian to wait in his palace. He took a bath first and then sent her back.
Shi Qian also didn't want to walk in the palace before it was completely dark.
This made her feel like a cat that was caught stealing fish, which was weird...
She stayed in Xiao Wuzi's dormitory obediently as she was told.
She sat on a stool, holding the remaining two strings of candy figures in her hands. One was a kitten, and the other was...the shape of Xiao Wuzi.
I don’t know if it was a random choice, but the candy figure he ate was in the shape of Shi Qiang, but he didn’t eat his own.
When she discovered this, Shi Qian's heart beat faster. She forced herself to remain calm and took the sugar man that Chu Qi handed to her. She said that she would share it with Hong Xing when she got home. But in fact, she had selfish motives and wanted to keep the sugar man.
Anyway, it’s so cold in winter, the sugar man won’t melt even if it’s left there, right?
As for spring...
She didn't think that much.
After taking a bath, Chu Qi personally escorted Shi Qiang back, and let him carry the things they bought during the day.
After walking for half an hour, Shi Qian was tired again as expected.
Chu Qi squatted down familiarly and carried her on his back.
In the distance, at the gate of Yanghe Hall in Chuxiu Palace stood a round-faced red-haired girl, seemingly waiting for the young lady to return.
Chu Qi came to the door and put Shi Da Ying down.
Hong Xing looked in surprise at the young lady who was carried all the way by Xiao Wuzi, and was shocked at the speed of their progress.
But...after all, I wasn't too shocked.
She saw the young lady falling step by step every day.
If she told her young mistress to sleep with Xiao Wuzi one day, I'm afraid Hong Xing would accept it very quickly.
"It's cold, so use more hot water for your bath. If there is not enough firewood, I will buy it for you from outside the palace." Chu Qi gave some instructions and left.
Shi Qian watched his back as he walked away - she could no longer see clearly after two or three meters because it was too dark.
"My dear~~" Hong Xing came close and asked excitedly, "What are you holding in your hand?"
She smelled a faint aroma! Slurp, it must be delicious!
