inexplicable jealousy
"The minister's people questioned the bearers and said that one of the three people was indeed carried on the back of another person. As for whether he was blind, because the person was covered with a hijab and could not tell, and... they were
Two women and one man, it seems inconsistent with what the emperor said..."
"Two women and one man?" Helian Hengzhi suddenly chuckled, but Cheng Zhao's scalp went numb, and a look of chilling flashed across his gentle face for a moment, "It's just a cover-up. It seems that they have indeed gone to Xuan Bingshan."
.”
Cheng Zhao forced himself to raise his eyes and saw that his right hand was clenched tightly tightly. After a while, he saw fine sand-like powder sliding down from his fingers, crushing the white jade chess piece.
His heart skipped a beat and he quickly lowered his head, his palms feeling sticky.
"I understand, you go down and reorganize the soldiers, and they will be ready at any time." Helian Hengzhi waved his hand.
"I obey." Cheng Zhao secretly exhaled a long breath before turning and leaving.
Seeing Cheng Zhao leaving, Prince Chen teased: "I didn't expect that Brother Helian, who has always been calm and indifferent, would lose his temper like this. I really want to pay a visit to the legendary Princess Qingwan."
Helian Hengzhi pursed his lips and smiled, took the handkerchief handed over by the maid next to him and wiped his hands, "Don't worry, I will give you a chance to visit her when I make her the queen."
Mrs. Chen flicked the dust that was not on the red clothes and smiled evilly:
"Are you so sure that she will belong to you? I heard... that she seemed to have rejected you in person..."
"You seem to be talking too much." Helian Hengzhi's tone instantly cooled down, "If Xia Houlie is not captured this time, Brother Chen, the achievements you have worked so hard for several years may be destroyed overnight.
When the time comes, your third brother will naturally replace you as the crown prince. I think by then you will be in no mood to joke with me..."
"You..." Prince Chen's face suddenly darkened, but he soon smiled again:
"This prince is just joking, brother Helian, don't take it seriously. You want your beauty, I want my country, we should be of one heart and one mind and deal with the outside world."
"That's good." Helian Hengzhi stood with his hands behind his hands, his eyes far away, watching the wild geese flying by in pairs, and raised his thin lips, "It seems it's time for us to take action."

During lunch, Mu Qingwan cooked a lot of nutritious dishes. The ingredients were all freshly hunted game and freshly picked wild fruits and vegetables. They were exceptionally fresh and delicious.
I boiled some tonic medicine in the bottle, brought it to Xia Houlie and said:
"Wait until it cools down before drinking."
Xia Houlie smiled tenderly, pulled her to sit next to him, and stroked the messy hair on her forehead with compassion:
"It's really hard for you to take care of me like this."
Mu Qingwan grabbed his hand and squeezed it, and said coquettishly: "You are my husband, if I don't take care of you, who will I take care of?"
As she said that, she looked outside and saw the sound of Leng Ji knocking outside. "I drew a picture for Leng Ji today and asked him to make a wheelchair for you, so you don't have to stay in the house all day long. Waiting for it to happen
Okay, I'll take you out to have a good look at the scenery of Piaomiao Peak, this is a paradise in the world."
The whole Bamboo House is made of green bamboo, and the furnishings inside are all made of bamboo. Although it is already early winter, the surroundings of the Bamboo House are still filled with the fragrance of birds and flowers. From time to time, crisp bird calls can be heard, and the breeze blows and fills the air.
It has a light and elegant floral fragrance, which makes people feel that the pores of the whole body are relaxed, making them feel particularly comfortable and transparent.
"It's really good here." Xia Houlie closed his eyes and took a long breath, praising.
"After you finish drinking the medicine, I will take you to the hot springs. The hot springs here are better than the hot springs in the palace and have quite a healing effect. You are weak now and you should take more baths." After saying that, she turned around and walked to the opposite room and took it back.
A set of white robes, "Each of us only brought two changes of clothes. You can't wear Master's clothes, so just make do with these..."
At this time, Leng Ji suddenly called her outside. She quickly put down the clothes in her hands and walked out. It turned out that there was a place that was not clearly drawn on the map, and Leng Ji didn't know what to do.
Mu Qingwan explained the pattern to him in detail. When he returned to the house, he found that Xia Houlie's face was gloomy and he seemed to be angry.
The medicine in the bowl is almost cold, but it has not been touched.
"What's wrong?" Mu Qingwan walked over and picked up the medicine bowl and checked the temperature: "The medicine is almost cold, drink it quickly."
Xia Houlie picked up the bowl and drank all the medicine in it. He felt that everything in his body was bitter. When Mu Qingwan saw him frowning, she quickly handed him a Purple Poria fruit. This fruit is sweet, delicious and nutritious.
Xia Houlie just pursed his lips and sat there without saying a word.
Mu Qingwan frowned slightly, walked over and asked tentatively: "Hey, what's wrong? Does it hurt somewhere?"
Xia Houlie raised his head and stared at her. Seeing her blurry image in his eyes, he felt his chest was sore:
"Are these Helian Hengzhi's clothes? Have you two lived door to door like this since you were young?"
Mu Qingwan looked at his eyes in surprise, and then looked at the two opposite rooms. Her and Helian Hengzhi's rooms were indeed door to door. From here, you could directly see the movement on the other side.
But...aren't his eyes invisible?
She didn't dare to take a breath, and said in surprise: "Your eyes..."
Xia Houlie suddenly poured a ladle of cold water on her, feeling very bitter in his heart, "I heard it. Don't change the subject and answer what I said."
"Yeah, what's wrong?" Seeing his face getting darker and darker, Mu Qingwan finally understood what he was angry about, and couldn't help but feel a little angry:
"Xia Houlie, I already said that the matter between him and me is in the past, why are you still angry? Besides, it's because I really can't find suitable clothes that I let you wear his clothes. It's okay to wear some clothes, right? You
Can you please be reasonable?"
Xia Houlie felt that his heart was filled with panic. Just thinking that they had been together face to face for eight years, it made him uncomfortable no matter what. Moreover, their rooms were actually connected like this. There was no taboo between men and women, which showed how close they had been in the past.
degree……
He knew that he shouldn't be so inexplicably jealous, but he still couldn't help but feel sour in his heart and his face became darker and darker.
Seeing that he still pursed his lips and said nothing, Mu Qingwan's face also turned cold: "Whether you want to wear it or not."
After she finished speaking, she packed up the medicine bowl and went to the kitchen. When she came back, she saw that he had already fallen asleep on the bed. She walked over and pulled him:
"It's uncomfortable to sleep with your coat on."
He didn't even open his eyes, "I can't help it anymore, I'm not energetic anymore."
"let me help you……"
He moved closer to the bed and said, "I'm sleepy, don't make trouble."
Mu Qingwan only felt that he was being too unreasonable and could not help but frown and said:
"Xia Houlie, it's so shameless of you to get angry with me over such a trivial matter? Don't I care about you enough? Don't you still see clearly who my heart is for?"
He still didn't speak, and Mu Qingwan was so angry that she decided not to pay attention to him and walked out of the room.
Leng Ji was a little surprised when he saw her coming out angrily:
"Master Wan, what's wrong? Who made you angry?"
"Who else could it be but that big ice cube!"
Mu Qingwan snorted angrily and wandered in the woods in front of the Bamboo Residence for a while. The more she thought about it, the more frustrated she became. Ever since he was poisoned, she had been worrying about him day and night and was completely obedient to him. He could not see.
, she personally took care of his daily life and took care of him in every possible way. Not only was he not moved, he would vent his anger on her from time to time!
She felt aggrieved all the way, but when she thought that he had to insist on bathing in hot springs every day to get better quickly, she couldn't help but worry again, gritted her teeth and had to walk back.
Leng Ji saw her coming back and said hurriedly: "Master Wan, the master just called you inside."
When Mu Qingwan heard this, she immediately quickened her pace and almost ran into the house. She couldn't help but laugh when she saw Leng Ji behind her.
Walking into the house, she saw Xia Houlie sitting on the bed with his head bowed. She walked over and said, "Aren't you sleepy? Lie down and take a nap. When you wake up, you can take a bath in the hot spring."
Just as she was about to take off his robe, his hand suddenly reached out and grabbed her hand. The big hand was still pale, and even the veins inside were extremely prominent. She felt her heart soften after looking at it, and gently
Caressing his hand, she said softly:
"Get some sleep, you need to rest now."
He was silent for a while, and then his other hand suddenly came around from behind and stretched out in front of her. She felt her eyes light up, and a cluster of red roses suddenly appeared in front of her. More than a dozen flowers clustered into a flower ball, and they bloomed.
It was extremely lively, and the bright red petals looked like the shy and pretty face of a newlywed bride, which was extremely moving.
"Wan, I'm sorry..." He buried his head in her neck, gently sniffing her unique fragrance, "I admit that this jealousy is very unreasonable... But, as long as I think about the time when you were facing each other like this
Falling asleep, chatting, and having been together like this day and night for eight years, I can't control my emotions..."
"No matter what happened in the past, it is you who I have been with day and night now. We have not only been together for eight years, but may have eighty years. You are always jealous of him. Don't you have any confidence in yourself?"
He pursed his lips and did not answer. He stuffed the bouquet into her arms and said, "I asked Leng Ji to carry me out to pick this just now. Do you like it?"
Mu Qingwan lowered her head and looked at his hand. There were several cuts on it. She put down the bouquet and bandaged it for him. She leaned over and kissed him, "It's good to admit your mistake."
She leaned in his arms, picked up the roses and counted them, but they happened to be eleven. She couldn't help but smile, feeling that her whole heart was as sweet as if it were soaked in honey water. She turned around and hugged him.
Asked softly:
"Hey, how could you think of giving me this kind of flower?"
He gave a rare shy smile, "I couldn't see the flowers clearly. I just asked Leng Ji to take me to pick the red flowers. I didn't expect there were quite a lot of thorns."
"This kind of flower is called a rose, which represents undying love. You just picked eleven of them. The language of the flower is wholehearted love."
