Imperial Favour - Chapter 28
As soon as the Gu poison on Huo Qiu’s body was released, no one was relieved, and even the gazes of others watching Tang Zhuozhao were quite different, among them, Han Suizi and Doctor Li were more important.
The weather is hot, and there are several ice basins side by side in the Yiqiu Palace. A few palace ladies shook the palace fans, which are not big or small, and the sweet orange fragrance in the fruit plate is constantly overflowing. The whole palace looks like a crystal palace. , The coolness is abnormal.
Tang Zhuozhuo was sitting in front of the Xiaoji, holding a jade pestle in his hand, mashing the ice cubes in the small bowl in front of him into icy crumbs, and then pour some juice from the jade bowl on the side to crush them. The ice has become a variety of colors, very strange to see.
An Xia waited on the sidelines, smiled and took away the rest of the juice. Seeing that the master was so happy, she couldn’t help but said: “Since I called your Highness and solved the Gu, the mood of the lady is just like the sun in the sky.”
Tang Zhuozhuo pursed his lips and smiled without concealing it. Every time the jade pestle and the bowl collided with each other, she made a low muffled noise. She said, “You’re making fun of me. Anyone in the Eastern Palace who knows this matter is not. Happy?”
After that, she put the jade pestle in her hand on the desk, looked at the pale pink peach crushed ice and shook her head dissatisfied, then rubbed the acidic wrist and got up.
An Xia handed her a veil to wipe her hands, but she couldn’t help but asked her doubts in her heart: “Manny, how did you solve the Gu?”
“Doctor Li is helpless.”
Tang Zhuozhuo’s footsteps kept walking, and he smiled and replied, “There are people outside the mountains, there are too many capable people in this world.”
An Xia wanted to speak but stopped.
She naturally knew the reason, but the problematic person was precisely the master who grew up with a thousand spoiled pets, which made her a little confused.
Niang Niang has never been able to get out of the door, so how did she learn how to solve Gu?
If the old lady knew about it, maybe he would be surprised.
Tang Zhuozuo naturally knew the doubt in her heart. He walked to the makeup box and picked a coral hand velvet to put it on, while indifferently asked: “Can the pastry made by the small kitchen in my palace be delivered?”
After all, there are very few people who know about Huo Qiu seeding Gu, so Tang Zhuozhuo’s ability to solve the Gu is rarely mentioned. One is to guard against Huo Qi, and the other is that she likes Jing and doesn’t want to provoke too much. Trouble upper body.
What’s more, Huo Qiu gave a death order, no one can chew on the back of his tongue.
An Xia is loyal, so Tang Zhuozuo believes in her especially in this life, but she is a maidservant after all, knowing too much is not a good thing for her, but it will cause harm.
This is also why Tang Zhuozuo is unwilling to explain her doubts completely.
When she finished speaking, Zi Huan brought an antique wooden food container. Before opening the outer wooden box, she smelled a strong milk fragrance.
Tang Zhuozuo moved her nose slightly, stretched her eyebrows, smiled so that there were only two small crescent moons left in her eyes. She said crisply: “My palace smells of horse milk cake.”
Zi Huan nodded and smiled: “Isn’t it? There are fresh milk cakes made in the small kitchen today. There is nothing to hide from the eyes and nose of the lady.”
Tang Zhuozuo rubbed his faintly painful wrist and said, “Go, let’s also learn from Zhong Liangdi, and send some small wine and snacks to His Highness.”
Zihuan and An Xia looked at each other, and both saw bright smiles in each other’s eyes.
Only after leaving the gate of Yiqiu Palace, the hot sun was in the sky, and the heat wave rushed over his face. Tang Zhuozuo accidentally let the sand in the wind fascinate his eyes, tears flowed, and when he arrived at the main hall, his eyes were still red. A piece of it, as if it had just cried.
When Zhang Desheng saw this, the smile on his face hadn’t fully bloomed, he saw the eyes under Tang Zhuozhuo’s fan, he couldn’t help being taken aback, and then he led the person away and asked, “What’s wrong with my mother?”
Tang Zhuozuo covered most of his face with a ball fan, and said, “When he came, Feng was blinded. Is your Highness still discussing matters?”
Zhang Desheng breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, arched his waist back: “Exactly, several gentlemen are in it.”
Tang Zhuozhuo stopped his steps, frowning, “That palace is waiting in the outer hall.”
“Manny, your Royal Highness has already ordered it. If you come, you don’t need to wait outside, just go in.”
Tang Zhuozuo glanced in the direction of the inner hall, then took the heavy food box in Zi Huan’s hand and walked into the inner hall.
The inside and the outside were clearly distinguished. The moment before the heat was still flustered, and the next moment there was a thin lump on his body. Tang Zhuozuo looked up, separated by a bead curtain, the figures of Huo Qiu and the others were looming.
Xu Ye heard the movement, and the sound inside gradually stopped.
Tang Zhuozhuo’s face was covered with a veil, and only a pair of wonderful eyes appeared outside, faintly sketching a heart-pounding aftertaste.
She stood still outside the pearl curtain, steadily blessing her body, her voice was heavy and clear: “Concubine, please peace of mind.”
No one answered.
After a while, the sound of steady footsteps arrived, and Huo Qiu lifted the pearl curtain and lifted the person up.
He stopped his gaze on the food box in her hand, and smiled, “Come and give Gu a snack?”
Tang Zhuozhuo was silent, and hid the little peach blossom wine in his other hand behind him, mumbling lowly.
Huo Qiu’s eyes were deep and he led people in.
As soon as Tang Zhuozuo entered, he heard Han Suizi laugh and joked: “The minister only knows that the crown prince has acupuncture and moxibustion methods, but I didn’t realize that this brewing skill is also a must.”
They are all people who drink alcohol all the year round, and they can smell alcohol with the movement of their noses.
Tang Zhuozuo put the food box on the desk, raised his eyes and looked over, only to see that two of the three people standing in the hall were acquaintances.
Except for Han Suan, the man standing on the right clasped his fists, his peachy eyes were extremely eye-catching, and the eyebrows were three-point similar to Tang Zhuozhuo, and he grinned when she saw her looking over.
Tang Zhuozuo turned his head and looked at Huo Qiu. Seeing that his expression was the same, he pressed his lips to the surprise in his heart. After all, he couldn’t help but smile.
That was her second brother Tang Yuan, and the one who loved her most among the three brothers.
She hadn’t seen a few elder brothers since she was reborn, and she was full of resentment even if she occasionally thought of it during the three years in the previous life.
The person standing on the left is warm and moist, unusually elegant, with a wise light in his eyes, and a gentle smile.
Tang Zhuozuo had never seen this person until he greeted her with a fist in a warm voice. She seemed to think of something, and smiled calmly and asked, “Your Majesty, is this Mr. Liu whom the concubine’s third brother admires so much?”
Except for Liu Hanjiang, who could enter and leave with Han Suanzi, she couldn’t think of anyone beside her.
Huo Qiu’s eyes were fixed in the corners of her red eyes, and he didn’t pay attention after a hurried glance. Now that he saw it, it was clear that he had only cried soon.
Who offended her?
“You should not be admired by the third son.” Liu Hanjiang replied with a polite smile, with Jiangnan’s unique warm air between the lines, Tang Zhuozhuo’s smile gradually faded, and the veil moved slightly. Reveal the delicate facial contours.
“It turned out to be Mr. Liu.” She paused, and then stopped talking.
After all, it was a foreign minister, she couldn’t even test it intentionally.
Fortunately, Huo Qiu opened his mouth in a deep and mellow voice: “If you are hungry, come and taste Donggong’s snacks, not to mention being stingy.” His eyes were smooth to the small bottle of wine, and he laughed loudly. : “This wine, Gu just hid it by himself. When the spring begins next year, someone will dig it out.”
Han Suanzi and Liu Hanjiang shook their heads hesitantly, but Tang Yuan stroking his palms with a smile, and said, “This is the first time I have eaten pastries from my little sister, the blessing of your Highness.”
Tang Zhuozuo glanced at him horizontally, automatically ignoring his words, but the gaze that Huo Qiu cast had a strong sense of existence, she moved her body, a little uncomfortable.
When everyone left, there were only two of them left in the temple.
Huo Qiu twisted a piece of milk cake, the sweetness of the mouth melted and there was a very strong milk fragrance, and he subconsciously frowned.
“His Royal Highness doesn’t like it?”
Tang Zhuozhuo asked afterwards, provoke Huo Qiu with a smile.
The woman in front of her is fragile and thin, with a slender waist that can’t stand a grip. She should be able to eat such desserts for good health.
But what about the magical acupuncture technique? How can I explain it?
Tang Yuan was just too old by his few words. Tang Zhuozhuo hadn’t read a few books of medical skills at all. Su Rili used Qin to paint, and no longer just played around with some novel things.
Huo Qiu looked at her slapped face and suddenly said, “Tang Yuan told me that there is a daughter Hong who has been buried for 17 years in Tang Mansion, and Gu is more interested in that.”
Tang Zhuozuo didn’t expect him to mention this suddenly, and slowly blushed, and said: “Why is he still talking about these things with His Highness?”
Huo Qiuxu’s hand was slowly released, he smiled deeply, the dark light in the sword’s eyes was deep and bottomless, just like what he said, people couldn’t figure it out.
“Jiaojiao, don’t you regret it if you leave for Xijiang tomorrow morning?”
Tang Zhuozuo blinked, what regrets? Follow to Xijiang? Or something else?
She could vaguely guess some of his thoughts, but they were too vague and she didn’t want to go into it.
Tang Zhuozhao’s crystal nails glowed with plain white light, and she met Huo Qiu’s gaze, but nodded like a ghost.
Suddenly, the hall was plunged into a strange silence. It was not so much nothing to say, it was a silent confrontation.
Tang Zhuozhuo lowered her eyelids, her eyelashes trembled a few times, and the veil trembled, perfectly covering the emotions in her eyes.
What is Huo Qiu wondering, how can she not know? But he didn’t ask, he rushed forward to explain it, and it would inevitably make people feel guilty.
And there are some things, even if they are explained clearly, it is hard to guarantee that he will not think too much.
Huo Qiu turned the jade finger in his hand and opened the stopper of the jar of peach blossom wine. The rich aroma was mixed with floral aromas, and the mellowness was extremely sweet and long.
She was still absent and he had already poured a small bowl of wine for himself.
After taking a small sip of wine, the tip of his tongue jumped with a scorching sensation, all the way to the belly, the wine was not strong, but he felt a little drunk.
Now that she came up on her own, then the long years to come can no longer be back.
He just tied her up and tied her to her side!
