In the largest restaurant in Xijiang, there were usually no empty seats, but now the door is closed early. The well-informed people are silent, but ordinary people's homes are only for after-dinner talks.
In the Tianzi box of Linglong Pavilion, Zhu Lu's knee hurts and his complexion is a little gloomy, but he resists the resentment in his heart and dare not show it.
The maid came in and exchanged two ice basins. The fragrance of the woman was charming and sweet.
Huo Qiu sat in the chair, closed his eyes and said nothing. Only the movement of his sleeves exposed the waves in his heart.
She is too smart and sharp beyond his imagination.
Tang Zhuozuo stood beside him, petite and exquisite in color, and his lips opened and closed a little bit sharply to reach Zhu Lu: "My palace has always been in doubt. Today, just in front of His Highness, we talked."
Zhu Lu only wanted to curse after hearing this. If he was normal, although he would not dare to point at her anymore, he would never give a good face, but now, kneeling in front of the prince, how dare he?
Even if Tang Zhuozhao had been approved, he was jealous, and he had the advantage from the beginning.
Zhu Lu wisely told himself that he should admit his mistakes and dismiss it as a joke, but he didn't allow it in his heart.
It was obviously Tang Zhuozhuo who had defeated Wang Yi, but now she is qualified to stand here plausibly, does she still have some conscience?
But in a blink of an eye he saw Huo Qiu sitting calmly, he had to take a deep breath.
Also, after marrying the royal family, how can there be any conscience?
What's more, the one who marries is the one who has the most scheming and most conscientious.
Tang Zhuozuo was actually a little drummer. He regretted the previous profuse words as soon as he uttered them, but the water that he could not get back when he uttered them, he really remembered a lot of things in his previous life, and it was difficult to control himself for a while.
She shouldn't have come out.
After all, it was too deeply affected by the previous life.
Zhu Lu finally spoke with difficulty, lowered his eyes and said one by one: "The Niang Niang is serious, the minister is young and ignorant..."
Before he finished speaking, Tang Zhuozhuo stopped with a tender white finger. The woman is slim and slim, and the begonia-colored Luo skirt is extremely gentle, making people even more charming. She lowered her head and fiddled with the agate clasp in her hand, making a slight crisp sound, which was out of touch with the atmosphere at this time.
Her curled eyelashes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, impatiently listening to such official words, she knew exactly what Zhu Lu was thinking. Coincidentally, she really wanted to talk about it today.
"I don't have to say anything. I won't use the status of the prince concubine to overwhelm you today. We will discuss the matter. After all, everyone in the capital knows what Tang Zhuozuo's stinky temper is."
Zhu Lu raised his head in surprise, and saw that Huo Qiu still looks like that. He didn't even open his eyes, and there was no slight fluctuation on his face.
Tang Zhuozuo walked to the window with a gloomy expression, and said with a sneer: "You just think I seduce His Royal Highness to put Wang Yi in the center of embarrassment and resentment."
"Marriage matters, the words of the matchmaker ordered by my parents. Neither his general mansion nor my Tang family have spoken about such remarks, but I am grateful for his life-saving grace that he met several times during the tea party and flower appreciation. Has the privacy in your eyes been forever?"
Zhu Lu frowned fiercely and opened his mouth to explain, only to find that it was exactly what she said.
Tang Zhuozuo was born in a famous family, and he couldn't do anything about trying to meet a man. Even when he met Wang Yi, it was just a banquet in the General's Mansion, and there was also a lady and his wife beside him.
Tang Zhuozuo took the kerchief in his hand and wiped the star dust from his hand. Seeing that Zhu Lu had nothing to say, he picked up the corner of his eye and said: "The Tang family is not a person who has not repaid me, in order to repay him for saving me from the water. My father personally taught him how to set up his martial arts. My second elder brother blocked the attack when the bandits encountered troubles. Even when he finally asked to marry Ning Yuan Hou's second daughter, my Tang family secretly helped. Where can I still be sorry to Wang Yi?"
Otherwise, in a run-down general's mansion, how can the bride price of more than 100 be obtained?
Tang Zhuo was furious, his eyes were sharp, and he walked to Zhu Lu and said, "On the contrary, he has been spreading rumors to harm my reputation and put himself in the position of a lover. He knows that I am married to His Royal Highness. Put someone into the East Palace and tell me something that has not provoke my relationship with His Highness."
"He wants me to have a bad life to be comfortable, right?"
What's more, the previous life tried hard to conceal her from sending the maid to tell her how Huo Qiu made things difficult for him, deliberately making her feel guilty and stubborn to keep herself in the cold palace.
How does it feel to wait for death? Even though he is clearly embracing his medical skills, he can still toss himself vigorously. It feels like that, only death can be relieved.
Tang Zhuozhuo said this last sentence extremely heavily, but he still wore an extremely frivolous smile on his face.
Zhu Lu's eyelids twitched fiercely, these... Wang Yi hadn't told him at all.
Tang Zhuozuo was tired of talking, and clapped his hands and returned to Huo Qiu. The man had already opened his eyes at this time, and he didn't know what deep emotions were hidden in his eyes, and he was very depressed.
Zhu Lu spoke with difficulty, and he couldn't hear what his voice was saying.
"Chen and Wang Yi have never thought about it this way, and the empress calmed down their anger."
Tang Zhuozuo finished what he said, as if he was a little tired, sitting on a soft stool rubbing his forehead with a little tiredness and whispered: "Your Highness, my concubine is out of state."
Huo Qiu raised his chin slightly, and for the first time he looked directly at the Prince of Nanping, who had never been on the ground before. After a few glances, he smiled contemptuously, and then said to Tang Zhuozhuo: "Gu asked someone to send you back."
He didn't want her to see the next thing.
Tang Zhuo stared at him for a moment, pinched the veil and said in a slow voice, then he adjusted his dress and was invited by Li Desheng to the carriage.
She opened the curtain on the carriage with her bare hands, looked at the three big characters on the restaurant, she was fascinated, and then slowly looked away.
Linglong Pavilion, there was also one in the capital in the previous life, which belonged to Huo Qiu.
Linglong dice puts red beans on the bones and knows nothing.
It took her two lives to understand his thoughts.
An Xia didn’t know what was going on inside. He just talked about the fat-headed Zhou Jian and she got angry, "Manny, I can’t spare that person lightly, and I don’t even look at what virtues I have, but I dare to covet it. Empress is beautiful!"
Tang Zhuozhuo pursed her lips and smiled softly, her expression lazy and charming, but her heart was numb, and the wind from outside blew her face with heat waves. When she closed her eyes, her mind was full of her to Zhu. What Lu said.
If it were to do it again, she might not have the courage to say that.
When he returned to the Youqu Pavilion, Tang Zhuozhao nestled on the beauty couch, and when he calmed down, a faint cold air lingered around her, and the scent swelled and made her brain hurt.
"Remove the incense burner." Tang Zhuozhuo waved, and said after a few sips of lunch.
An Xia and Zihuan were a little worried. After looking at each other, they laid down the bed curtain layer by layer and walked out lightly.
"What's the matter with the empress? Could it be that the disciple was off?"
Zi Huan shook his head, frowning and said: "The empress is not the kind of person who can get angry easily. I'm not sure. I will go to the small kitchen and give me an order to cook some things my empress likes. I woke up, Niangniang should be hungry."
Tang Zhuozuo slept leisurely. The scene in his dream was very clear. Wang Yi was unwilling to guard the mausoleum for a long time. Over time, his gang and other generals had a conspiracy to hold his armies as king and declare war to the court when the feast was the coldest.
In the beginning of spring, Tang Zhuozhuo's elder brother Tang Su was finally captured and taken back to the court.
Huo Qiu wore a bright yellow dragon robe, solemn and solemn, and walked up to Wang Yi in a pure and expensive suit. The latter laughed wildly, knowing his fate, and wanted to stimulate the emperor in front of him.
His face looked like a savage ghost, and his expression was terrifying, and he said to Huo Qiu: "Aren't you trying to force me in every possible way? Now I have rebelled as you wish?"
Huo Qiu's expression remained the same, and even his eyes did not fluctuate. This irritated Wang Yi even more. He raised his head and laughed rampantly: "Your Majesty is for Tang Zhuozuo that woman?"
Huo Qiu finally said, completely indifferent: "She is my queen."
Wang Yi spit out a mouthful of blood with a smile, and said, "Everyone is dead, so why bother?"
"Hahaha! Your majesty doesn't know yet, right? That is very clever in medicine, how could he die of illness?!"
"Since the minister is going to die, you might as well tell your majesty something old. You saved Tang Zhuozuo from falling into the water that year? It's a pity to be led by the minister, the Tang family is very grateful to me."
"Oh, including later, the minister bought the maid and told her that Wang Yi hadn't married yet, and told her that it was your majesty that you sent someone to cut off one of her third brother's arms. That woman is most affectionate, and it is even more unlikely that you will have any love for your majesty. What a look!"
Wang Yi was extremely proud, and he was so happy when he watched the expressions of the nine-fifth lord who had been so high in the past burst.
Huo Qiu was really furious, but Wang Yi kept his head up and spit out blood and continued, "Your Majesty still remember the time when Tang Zhuozuo quarreled with you before entering the Leng Palace? Before that, she sent someone to tell me that the Tang family could help me. Marry a wife, she is already married, so please don't contact me again."
Huo Qiu reddened his eyes, picked up Wang Yi by his collar, and gritted his teeth every word: "You, say, what, what?!"
The picture came to an abrupt end, as if the glass exploded in front of Tang Zhuozhuo's eyes, she woke up in shock while clutching her chest, and silently wiped the glitter of her eyes when she got up.
This dream was too real. Tang Zhuozuo stroked the frame on the window sill in a daze. The clouds on the horizon were like silk, but her tears fell one by one, and she couldn't stop it.
It was strange, she thought, but it was just a dream, how could even the sadness be so real.
And this afternoon, Zhu Lu had a bad time. He didn't get out of the private room until the sunset, and he was as calm and calm as he did when he didn't go in, and even his steps were a little vain.
Huo Qiu's face was also frosty, Li Desheng hurriedly stepped forward and said: "His Royal Highness, Niang Niang has returned to Youqu Pavilion, Master Shoumu of Xijiang County is waiting outside with the son of the Zhou family. His Highness is going to come in?"
Huo Qiu glanced coldly, his steps seemed a little anxious, and said, "Tell him, I'm waiting for King Nanping to come in person."
It's a mere Zhou family, and it's boring to meet.
Li Desheng knew it and sent someone back to the county guard. When he turned around, he saw only a corner of his master's clothes. He hurried to follow and heard Huo Qiu say: "Go back to the other courtyard."
Li Desheng can't get back to his senses, this... all these things don't matter to the master?
The influence of the prince concubine on the master and son is too great.
Tang Zhuozuo had originally expected that Huo Qiu would not be back tonight, and he was very perfunctory with dinner. He picked a few mouthfuls of egg custard and put a spoon on it, which was extremely rare.
This is what Huo Qiu saw when he arrived at Youqu Pavilion.
The little woman rested her cheek in her hand and stared at a place in a daze. After a long time she took another spoonful of custard and swallowed it. The sound of the spoon colliding with the bowl was particularly clear.
He stood for a while, until Tang Zhuozuo looked over and said, "Don't eat well?"
Tang Zhuozuo blinked. Huo Qiu from the previous life overlapped with what she is now. She wanted to speak, but only when she said a word, she realized that her voice became dumb, so she tugged at her sleeves and made no sound. Big tears fell silently.
The serving maids had long since retreated, Huo Qiu sighed lowly, walked over and wiped away the tears on her face, and said in a gentle tone, "Isn't it just that you were asked to dominate today? Do you still feel wronged?"
Tang Zhuozuo rubbed his tears onto his clothes, showing off a squeamish bag: "I just feel uncomfortable, and my heart hurts with anger."
Huo Qiu stroked her soft black hair with a big palm, her voice was a little tight and low hoarse: "Jiaojiao is serious today?"
Tang Zhuozhao didn't know what he meant, blindfolded, and asked, "What is it?"
Huo Qiusheng took a breath from the bottom of his heart, his eyes were as deep as two ancient wells, but the beating sound in his blood was stronger than one sound.
"You used to..." He paused, then slowly closed his eyes and said: "The love for Wang Yi is because he saved you when you fell into the water?"
Tang Zhuozuo felt that his body was terribly stiff, and wanted to look back at his expression, but he was firmly pressed on his shoulders with his hands, so he nodded and gave a low hmm.
At that time, her clothes were soaked, how important is the reputation of her daughter's family? What's more, Wang Yi also had a good birth, which made her blindfold.
With this sound, the man's body completely relaxed. He gave a low and low laugh, which was unclear, but Tang Zhuozuo clearly felt a hint of gritted teeth.
Huo Qiu was so angry at the moment that his heart ached, and even his eyes were a bit sour.
This little thing looked smarter than anyone in the past, why was it so stupid?
Co-authoring for such a long time, he lost to his substitute?
