Chapter 141 There is a chatterbox
Concubine Shun nodded and said, "You are right. I will ask the Emperor to let me stay at Yan'er's residence temporarily. The reason is... Yan'er has been ill for a month and still hasn't recovered. I am worried and want to take care of him!"
"Yes, it's decided. I'm going there now without further delay!"
Bu Yanfu never expected that when Xiao Haoyan went to the palace, he did not get the support of Concubine Shun, but instead got himself into trouble.
…
A few days later, in the evening, Xiao Yulan found Bu Ruo who was eating fruit in the shade and instructing someone to sweep the floor.
"Ruo'er, I have something to tell you."
Bu Ruo looked at the gloomy Xiao Yulan and threw the fruit core in his hand to the ground: "Jin Congcong, don't be lazy, just sweep it according to the method I just told you, otherwise when will the garbage in your consciousness be cleaned up?"
After saying that, he pulled Xiao Yulan to sit on a chair beside him and said, "Look at how sweaty you are. Did you just get back? Sit down and eat some fruit while we talk."
Xiao Yulan took the fruit and said, "I have received news that Beining has suddenly sent 200,000 troops to attack the border of our Great Zhou for unknown reasons. Moreover, there is something strange about this 200,000-strong army. They seem to be different from ordinary soldiers."
"No matter how badly they were injured, they were able to recover quickly. Casualties were minimal, or even zero. However, our Great Zhou soldiers suffered heavy losses."
"So Ruo'er, I'm going to the border tomorrow."
Bu Ruo raised an eyebrow: "Hmm... If it looks like this, you probably can't take me with you. After all, someone needs to look after Kyoto. But if I don't go, can you handle Bei Ningruo if he really is that kind of thing?"
Xiao Yulan looked at Bu Ruo's worried eyes and touched her head: "Don't worry, my consciousness has almost recovered now, I can handle it."
"It's just that we've never been apart since we got married. Even though I know Ruo'er's abilities, I still can't let you go by yourself in Kyoto."
Bu Ruo smiled with eyes curved: "Don't worry, even if the emperor is a jerk, as long as my second senior brother is the king of Nanxia, he won't dare to deal with me openly."
"As for the dark place... Actually, Yanzhi Tower belongs to me."
Looking at Xiao Yulan's raised brows, Bu Ruo smiled awkwardly: "I forgot to tell you before."
"I'm afraid it's not that you've forgotten, but that I never once entered Ruo'er's heart. So it's only natural that Ruo'er would be reserved about beating me."
"Now that Ruo'er has told me, does that mean that Ruo'er actually likes me a little bit?"
Bu Ruo lowered her head, with an unknown blush on her face: "Well, if you say so, then so be it."
Xiao Yulan was overjoyed and carried Bu Ruo towards Chaoyang Garden.
"Hey, Xiao Yulan, what are you doing? Put me down quickly. There are so many people watching us. Jin Congcong, keep your head down and sweep the floor. Don't laugh, or I'll sew your mouth shut."
Aunt Jin Congcong smiled and looked at Bi'er: "I won't sweep the floor anymore. I'm going to prepare some medicinal food for Ruo'er. You can't complain to her. I will continue sweeping tomorrow."
"I have to replenish her blood and qi... Hey, Bi'er, don't glare at me. I won't do it rashly. I'll ask my master for the recipe and follow his instructions. After all, Ruo'er's beatings are very painful."
That night...the red tent fluttered in Chaoyang Garden.
…
The next morning, Bu Ruo endured the pain all over his body and glared at someone who looked very satisfied: "Aren't we leaving today? Why are you still lying here?"
Xiao Yulan stretched out his hand and embraced Bu Ruo in his arms: "I suddenly don't want to leave. Today, I finally understand what it means that the night is short and the sun rises high. From now on, the king will not attend the morning court."
Bu Ruoxiao hit him, but still stood up and pulled him up: "Alright, let's go quickly. Are you afraid that you won't be able to wait for you to come back? I'll ask Bi'er to ask Grandpa Du to go with you, otherwise I'll always be worried."
"Don't look at Grandpa Du's age, his physique is even stronger than that guy Jin Congcong."
Just as he finished speaking, Bi'er's voice rang out at the door: "Princess, are you awake yet? Doctor Du is here."
Bu Ruo and Xiao Yulan got up, put on their clothes and opened the door. Sure enough, they saw Doctor Du sitting on a stone bench in the yard and looking back at them.
"Yeah, as expected, not bad, not bad, we are finally a real couple."
Bu Ruo naturally knew what Doctor Du meant, her face turned red but she didn't say anything.
"Okay, don't be embarrassed, drink this porridge, it's good for you."
"How did you know? I was just thinking of asking Bi'er to invite you."
Doctor Du curled his lips and said, "You know there's a gossipy person in Prince Zhan's mansion. After the prince took you away yesterday, the whole mansion knew about it within an incense stick of time."
"That kid even asked me for a recipe to replenish Qi and blood, saying he wanted to make a medicinal meal for you. I was afraid he might poison you, so I made it myself and sent it to you. I've already given Bi'er the recipe and instructions, and I've also prepared the herbs in the correct amounts. I'll have her make it for you to eat for seven days straight."
Bu Ruo's face flushed red, and she wished she could cut Jin Congcong into pieces.
Watching Bu Ruo finish the porridge in small sips, Doctor Du stood up and patted the corner of his clothes: "Alright, I will go back to pack my bags and wait for Your Highness at the door in half an hour."
Seeing Bu Ruo's surprised face, Doctor Du smiled and said, "Jin Congcong has already told me everything. Even if you didn't ask me, I would have gone with you. Ruo'er finally got married, so I naturally have to protect the prince. I can't let Ruo'er worry."
"Besides, if I go along, I can also teach those military doctors some skills, so that our soldiers of the Great Zhou can suffer less. They are all good children, and they are all heroes who defend their country."
Half an hour later, Bu Ruo sent the person to the gate of the palace and forcefully stuffed the token in his hand into Xiao Yulan's hand.
"This is the Bu family army's token. Keep it for emergencies. Beining couldn't have suddenly attacked the Great Zhou. There must be other reasons. I'll have Yanzhilou investigate. If it's really related to that bastard emperor or prince, you should just lead the troops back. A bastard who disregards the suffering of the people doesn't deserve to sit in that position."
Xiao Yulan knew that Bu Ruo was worried about him, so he put the token away even though he couldn't use it.
"Okay, don't worry. I'll take Cen Nan away and leave Cen Bei with you. If you need anything, just let him handle it. He's more careful than Cen Nan."
"Also, I secretly transferred the Armored Guards here yesterday. They should be in the suburbs of Beijing in three days at the latest. If anything happens in Beijing, let the Armored Guards escort you away first."
Doctor Du rolled his eyes helplessly when he saw the two of them dithering. "Ah, a short absence is better than a new marriage. I know you're reluctant to leave, but it's not like you won't come back. Not really, not really, ha~"
Watching the departing carriage, Bu Ruo stood at the gate of the palace for a long time without moving.
