Chapter 17 Miss, you are finally back

Mei Zhuoxue went crazy out of control as she had seen in her previous life, piercing the heads of anyone who approached him with strands of silver light puppet threads, weaving them into human spider webs.

From Jiangnan to the capital for five consecutive days, the carriage drove smoothly on the avenue, Mei Zhuoxue sat in it and seldom showed up, eating and drinking were all sent to the carriage curtain like Uncle Fu, so far away, you could hear the drunken flowers There were coughing sounds and slight soothing sounds from inside.

Mei Zhuoxue didn't call her until the morning of the sixth day, when the majestic Shangjing City was unobstructed in front of her eyes.

"Your Highness." Hua Zuili rode his horse to the side of the purple gold tulle curtain.

The car curtain floated slowly, and a slender and cold white hand gently lifted one end of the gorgeous curtain, "Lights are hung on tall buildings, and red silk hangs lightly. I haven't been back to Beijing for a long time. I don't know what kind of happy event happened in the city. It's so lively."

Rows of round and exquisite lanterns swayed with the wind, Hua Zuili counted the days with his fingers, and said: "If I remember correctly, in two days, it will be the annual Wanjia Lantern Festival in Beijing."

"A little bit of night light to send thoughts, and everyone prays for reunion forever. It's a good day." Mei Zhuoxue's lazy voice is elegant but a little tired.

He opened the curtain wider, and saw the young man in green robe and fair hair looking up at the red light on the high wall with a sad face.

"Chengyun." He called her.

"Huh?" She turned her head sharply.

The four eyes met, and the shadow of the other party was clearly reflected in the pupils.

"We'll see you again soon." Mei Zhuoxue didn't miss the change in her expression from dazed to indifferent, and she lowered her eyelashes to cover her eyes with a sarcasm, her voice was still warm and clear, "At that time, let's talk happily again, How are you?"

"My minister is also looking forward to meeting His Highness again." The situation in the capital is treacherous. From the moment he stepped into the capital, there are many things that can no longer be easily controlled by her or him. However, Hua Zuili is very willing. Stir up this storm and use it to kill people.

A humble smile rose from the corner of her mouth to conceal the strong murderous intent rising in her heart, she saluted Mei Zhuoxue again, rode her horse and swung her whip, and stepped into the huge Shangjing City first.

Mei Zhuoxue looked at the handsome young man who rode Juechen, and slowly stroked the snow-colored pearls falling from the purple-gold gauze curtain with her fingertips, and then slowly closed them, as if... she was holding someone in her palm.

……

After entering the capital city, Hua Zuili led her horse down an alley to a mansion. She looked up at the high gate plaque with black letters on a red background, folded her arms, leaned against the brown horse and meditated.

How will she get in...

Everyone knows that the eldest son of the Hua family went to be the prince's accompanying student, and the young lady of the Hua family was delicate and frail, and she lay on the bed with a high fever for nearly half a month after suffering from the wind and cold.

These are all the rumors that she carefully designed back then, and even her parents and mothers concealed them. The housekeeper who grew up with his younger brother would probably see through this unsophisticated disguise at a glance.

What should I do, she doesn't want to be taken care of by her family just after returning home...

Leading the horse around to the back door of the mansion, Hua Zuili's eyes lit up, "Zhiqiu."

"Miss!" Zhiqiu was wearing a light-yellow brocade pleated skirt, with a basket of flowers for shopping hanging on her arm. When she heard someone calling, she turned her head and saw her own lady standing not far away, leading a horse.

"Miss, you are finally back!" Zhiqiu ran over and hugged Hua Zuili, "Miss, why did you come back... Zhiqiu misses you so much."

Tears welled up in her big eyes, since she left Jiangnan Inn, she hasn't seen her lady for nearly half a month, whether she eats well, dresses warmly, sleeps soundly, she prays every day It takes a thousand prayers to feel safe.

"Okay, don't cry, haven't I come back safely?" Hua Zuili patted Zhiqiu's back, helped her up, and reached out to pinch her round face.

"I don't know what kind of dead rules those royal families have established. They are not allowed to serve as companions." She was angry when she thought of the Uncle Fu she saw at the Jiangnan Inn. What did you say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince likes to be quiet, it's not good if there are too many people and noisy.

She bah!If this is the case, then how can some people bring servants and servants? To put it bluntly, they just want to drive her away.

"If you had dressed up as a man at the time, you might have been able to follow." Hua Zuili looked at Zhiqiu's temper like a little pepper, and shook her head helplessly. Did she get too used to her? Now even the royal family dares to criticize...

She thought so, but she didn't mean to correct it.

"Miss, what are you talking about..." Hearing the ridicule in the words, Zhiqiu's cheeks were flushed, and he raised his hand to grab the corner of Hua Zuili's robe and shook it.

"Stop making trouble." Hua Zuili patted her hand, and got down to business, "What's the situation in Xiangfu now, can parents see the clues, and Cheng Yun, is he all right?"

"After you left, the young master has been pretending to be sick according to what the young lady said. The prime minister invited many doctors and was scared away by his pretending. The lady thought that the young lady was terminally ill. She didn't think about eating and drinking all day long. , Madame went to the temple to offer incense and pray for the miss.”

"That's it..." Hua Zuili sighed in her heart, she was the one who was sorry for her mother, she turned her head to look at the basket on Zhiqiu's arm, "Then you are..."

"Oh, it's the young master." Zhiqiu couldn't put it into words. "Madam doesn't think about food and drink, but the young master has a very good appetite. No, I want to eat the garlic pork trotters in the small alleys of South Street. Let the slaves buy them."

"Hehe, you don't need to buy it, just go home with me first."

Moli Pavilion.

The fragrance of flowers is bursting, and the bead curtain is crisp.

A boy was sitting on a round rosewood chair with his legs crossed, gnawing an apple. He swayed on his toes, with a casual expression. If he ignored the purple blue on his left eye and the corner of his mouth, he would look handsome.

"This Zhiqiu, where did you buy the pig's trotters, why haven't you come back yet?"

He spat out the apple core in his mouth, stood up with the help of the table, and grinned his teeth as soon as his right toe touched the ground, "Hiss... my sister's hands are too heavy, it's been more than half a month, and the skin and bones are still hurting, When she comes back, I must keep talking about it. Hiss, whoops..."

"Okay, tell me, what do you want to talk about."

The crisp and melodious voice sounded together with the 'squeak' sound of the carved door being pushed open.

Hua Chengyun was so frightened that he staggered and almost squatted on the ground, "You... sister? Are you back?"

Hua Zuili looked at the leftover fruit residues and peanut skins and melon skins on the table, raised her eyebrows and said, "It seems that during your recovery period, you are doing well."

"It's okay." Hua Chengyun scratched his head, pulled away the chair and hurriedly helped Hua Zuili sit down, "Sister, don't stand, sit down quickly."

"Cut, sycophant..." Zhiqiu rolled his eyes.

"Go, go, what do you know, go buy pig's trotters!" Hua Chengyun dismissed Zhiqiu, turned his head to Hua Zuili and smiled courteously, "Sister, how are you doing as a companion for the prince? Yes It's not particularly heroic, it blinds their dog's eyes."
