When they were there, the two had their own careers, so they gathered less and separated more. It's all over the world, when I think of it, at most I make a phone call. But it's not that difficult to meet, even if it is across the ocean, a ticket can solve everything.
The two have come together since they opened their hearts, and they are always full of joy when they meet again after a long absence. Now that he is going to travel again, Li Wei's heart has stopped when facing him.
"How long will the prince go here?"
"Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, I couldn't come back. There was too much time on the road. If it goes well, I might have to go to other places and take a walk around the two lakes and Guangdong."
"Then it will be at least the end of the year if you come back."
"Yeah, there are many things I want to see in person. I have never been to the fief all these years when I was a feudal lord. No chance to get out of the capital." Empress Sheng’s family is less than a thousand miles away from Xiangqi in Shanxi.
Li Wei also wanted to go for a walk, but she was trapped in these imperial palaces and couldn't get out of her body.
"Because I want to travel a long distance, so I came to say goodbye to the Queen Mother." Zhao Qian said again: "I have already assigned the affairs of the court, and there is nothing to worry about, just..." Zhao Qian said and looked to sit again. The woman on the kang.
Li Wei wore a peacock blue summer shirt today with a silver ball pattern on it. It is said that the pattern is embroidered with seeds, with a green pleated skirt underneath, and the skirt is trimmed with pale yellow teeth that are a few inches wide. The teeth are embroidered with dense curly patterns. I can faintly see a pair of royal blue embroidered shoes hidden under the skirt.
I saw her wearing a bun with only a southern pearl hairpin in her hair, and a white rose flower at the left sideburn. A pair of silver cloves were worn on the ears.
In his memory, she hasn't worn brightly colored clothes for a long time, because she is just new now, and those delicate colors seem to be missed in her lifetime. In fact, her skin is snow-white, so she is most suitable for wearing red clothes, making her skin white and red.
Zhao Qian's mind is depicting Li Wei in a different way. He still clearly remembered Li Wei at that time with a sharp, short hair. Even short hair is neatly managed. Wearing a long beige windbreaker with a black knitted skirt inside and a pair of black short boots underneath.
At that time, she was dressed as a professional woman, capable and neat, but she was full of hostility towards him and was always on guard. A high wall was built in my heart.
The body is close at hand, the heart is in the world. These two sentences are the most profound portrayal at the moment.
There was a palace lady standing beside her, and there were many palace ladies waiting outside, and there was nowhere to say something at ease.
Zhao Qian had eaten the honeydew melon, and a court lady brought hot water up to ask him to clean his hands. After washing his hands, he took out the handkerchief in his sleeve and wiped his hands. Then he sat upright on the chair below.
"The prince is going to the mountains and rivers, and please cherish the prince."
Zhao Qian smiled and nodded and said, "I dare not forget what the Queen Mother has ordered. The minister still wants to come back at the end of the year to celebrate her birthday with the Queen Mother. So he will try his best to come back before then."
Here her birthday is still December 24th, but this day is only in the lunar calendar, just in time for the new year.
On the twenty-fourth of the twelfth lunar month, the first emperor’s anniversary is already full, but what is better for her widowed widow to have her birthday? The three-year service is not full yet.
Li Wei said lightly: "I don't have a birthday, so the prince should try to come back at the first emperor's anniversary celebration. You will still be required to preside over the situation at that time."
Zhao Qian clearly saw the alienation and indifference in Li Wei's eyes. The snow scene in Scotland has long been etched in his heart and he will never forget it in this life, but unfortunately there will never be a time when they hold hands, and the affection they once had turned into cold memories.
"Queen..."
This brisk voice is Shujia's return. Li Wei had bowed his head, and now sat upright. The curtain at the door shook slightly, and a small figure flashed in, followed by a swan. Light, the last one is Li Xing.
Li Xing and Shujia salute Zhao Qian together. Zhao Qian nodded and said with a smile: "I will send the emperor here to please the queen mother, because I'm going to travel a long distance, so I'll drop in to tell each other. Ninth princess, please listen to your mother's words carefully."
Shu Jia asked hurriedly, "Where is the emperor uncle going?"
"Go to Shandong."
Shujia tilted her head to think about it and said, "I heard people say that the kite in Weifang is beautiful. Can the emperor bring me a good-looking kite?"
Zhao Qian nodded naturally and said, "It's a trivial matter, I promise it's okay." Then he asked Li Xing again: "What does the fifth girl like? I can bring it back on the way."
Li Xing's heart throbbed, and she didn't even dare to look directly into Zhao Qian's eyes, even stuttering: "I... I dare not ask the lord what..."
Zhao Qian said softly: "Good girl, don't be nervous."
Li Xing's face blushed instantly, and when she wanted to ask for a kite, Zhao Qian was already asking Li Wei.
"What does the queen dowager need? The minister will help the queen dowager."
Li Wei said indifferently, "Chongqing Palace lacks nothing."
Naturally, Chongqing Palace lacked everything, but it was Li Wei that Zhao Qian wanted to give a gift most.
Li Wei glanced at Li Xing secretly, but she saw her sister blushing, a little uncomfortable, and she couldn't know what was going on. Should we create a chance for them?
Thinking like this, Li Wei took Shujia's hand and said, "Go, take you to the bowl lotus blooming in the jar over there, don't you like it, it has bloomed today, and the flowers are still yellow."
Shujia also looked surprised, and then went out with her mother, leaving only Li Xing and Zhao Qian in the house.
Zhao Qian had already got up, and looked as if he was about to leave, but Li Xing stopped him.
"Master, I have already figured out what I want, will you take it for me?"
When Zhao Qian heard this sentence, he turned around, looked at Li Xing and smiled: "Yes, tell me what you want."
"I want a picture drawn by the prince."
Zhao Qian was obviously a little surprised, but he quickly said, "Haha, I'll give you a picture later."
Seeing Zhao Qian agreed, Li Xing immediately said with joy, "Thank you, Lord."
Zhao Qian smiled politely and said: "The fifth girl doesn't have to be too polite. You live in Chongqing Palace. It's good to stay with the queen mother and relieve her boredom. If you feel bored in the palace for a long time, you can go with the queen mother. To escape the heat in Taoist temples and temples, life should go faster."
Naturally, these words have another meaning to Li Xing. She never expected that this majestic and stern regent would have such a considerate side. The deer bumped into her heart, and the girl's emotions were clearly written in her eyes, which made her look at Zhao Qian bravely, and Zhu Lips lightly said, "Where can I be at home outside, please take care of your body."
Zhao Qian nodded and promised: "I will, thank you five girls for caring."
