The departure time was in the morning, and it was almost noon when we arrived in Xishan.

The group got out of the car and came to guide her from the stable. Xia Tong became a little plump after giving birth. She was a little afraid of heat, so she hid in the awning that had been built in advance early. Although it was not yet May, there were already signs of summer.

When she got off the bus, the emperor came to help her in person, as if she was still in the confinement period, and she had hands and feet but could not walk.

Xia Tong felt very embarrassed, "Your Majesty, let's go first, I can do it myself."

Unfortunately, Liu Zhang's arm was stretched straight, as if it was petrified.

Xia Tong had no choice but to borrow his power. Because the chassis of the carriage leaving the palace was particularly high, she almost fell into the emperor's arms.

Liu Zhang half-jokingly hugged her in his arms and "lifted her high" and tried to weigh it, "It's indeed heavier than last year."

Xia Tong:...

Let’s ignore the stinky man’s slutty mouth, but this man, aren’t you afraid of fuzzing your waist?

Fortunately, she didn't eat much during her confinement period, otherwise she would have grown into a ball and the emperor couldn't even hug her, so I don't know who was embarrassed.

Jiang Bilan naturally couldn't understand her complex and subtle psychological activities, but felt that these two people were showing their love everywhere and tricking the dog in and killing them.

Of course, she could not tolerate being ignored in public, so she stepped forward and gave a gentle salute, "Your Majesty, don't let all the clans wait in a hurry."

Only then did Xia Tong notice that Jiang Bilan had changed into a slim-fit riding outfit, and the carriage was so bumpy. What could she do?

But I have to say that this black outfit is very suitable for her. Jiang Bilan's appearance is already beautiful, and she is a bit tacky when dressed magnificently. Now her hair is simply tied up, and her slender waist is also made of obvious outlines with a cloth belt, which makes her look more heroic.

I heard that she had learned riding a horse at home, no wonder she had to come with her this time. If there were men in the team, it would be meaningless. It just so happened that she, the lively and fragrant concubine, came to add some fun.

Liu Zhang took advantage of the excitement to travel, and changed his usual cold appearance. He also liked Jiang Bilan, but he still remembered Xia Tong, "Do you want to go?"

Jiang Bilan also invited with a smile, "Yes, Sister Zhaoyi, you are always stuck in the palace and have lost weight. Why not take this opportunity to exercise your muscles and bones?"

Of course, I knew that Xia Tong's riding skills were not as good as hers. When I was short of comparison, the emperor would know who would give me a face and who would embarrass me.

Xia Tong didn't expect to eat a mouthful of wind and sand on the horse's back, and shook his head reservedly, "No need, Your Majesty and the Imperial Concubine go over with you, I'll just watch from the side."

Jiang Bilan couldn't help but feel a little regretful. She thought Xia Tong would actively compete for favor with her, but she was so unafraid and gave up without trying. It was really a mud that couldn't stand it on the wall.

She originally hoped that Xia Tong would not be good at riding skills, so she would be able to hurt her legs or something, so that she could raise the eldest son with justification.

Although the plan was not as smooth as expected, Xia Tong did not fight or snatch it, which also gave her the opportunity to be alone with the emperor. Jiang Bilan couldn't help but feel confident.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin came out halfway, and Feng Yuzhen poked her face from behind the curtain, "Empress Concubine, can I go for Sister Zhaoyi?"

"You?" Jiang Bilan looked at her weak body suspiciously.

Xia Tong smiled and said, "Empress Concubine, let Meiren Feng accompany you. It just so happened that His Majesty lacked someone to serve."

Anyway, Feng Yuzhen is the one who cannot be beaten to death. As long as she cannot die, she will go to death. With her here, Jiang Bilan will definitely not be able to do anything.

Jiang Bilan was unwilling to be so magnanimous, and she choked for a moment.

Liu Zhang thought that the imperial concubine was born in the Left Prime Minister's Mansion and Feng Yuzhen was the daughter of the Right Prime Minister. They were together and could balance each other, so he nodded to express his approval.

Jiang Bilan didn't expect Xia Tong to give Feng Yuzhen a chance to show her face in just one sentence, and she felt even more that the two had formed an alliance.

She sneered: "Sister Zhaoyi, you must know that dogs that can bite people will not bark. If you believe in the wrong person carefully, it will be a bad thing to turn back and bite you back."

Feng Yuzhen is used to being shameless and does not feel ashamed at all. "The concubine's words are funny. Good birds choose trees to live in, but they just have to distinguish which tree is just a weed. Are you right?"

Jiang Bilan changed color suddenly.

Xia Tong thought to himself that Feng Yuzhen was so bitter that it was harmful to others. The two of them started fighting in broad daylight. She smiled and changed the topic, "It's not too early, Your Majesty and all the sisters should go there quickly. The Empress Dowager is impatient when she waits."

Older people are prone to chest tightness and shortness of breath. Although the western mountain is not too high, it is a little altitude, not to mention that the place where Empress Dowager Jiang is staying is not covered by the shade of a pavilion.

She didn't understand why Empress Dowager Jiang came out to suffer this crime - in fact, she could guess, most of it was Princess Yilin. Even if she was not a biological child, how could she have no feelings for her after raising her for more than ten years? Although Cheng Yao is good, anyone with great talent is often arrogant and difficult to control. Princess Yilin herself is a proud person. It's okay now. When she gets married, wouldn't she be at the top of the head and sparkle every day?

What's more, the second marriage is a burden, and the new prince-consort has a second appearance. The important thing is to have a good character, open-mindedness, and tolerantness. In this way, Yilin can live a harmonious life in the second half of her life.

Empress Dowager Jiang decided to find a matching husband for her daughter with her mature eyes. She had no choice but to look at her. She had no choice but to have a good family background and worry about being angry with the princess. She was too romantic and charming. She had an outdoor room early, and Yilin was afraid that she would be jealous when she came in.

Thinking about it, the Xia family husband whom I used to look down on before is now very pleasing to him. Although Xia Changsong was still in his twenties, he was simple and honest. He had never heard of any scandals and events. He was a rare and upright person. Although he was not as good as his fame or fame, he would probably be able to make a living with the title of a princess. What's more, his husband was weak and his wife was strong, which would better guarantee Princess Yilin's status at home.

Moreover, Xia Tong has given birth to the eldest son of the emperor. In the future, no matter whether this child is the crown prince or the vassal king, the wealth of the Xia family is indispensable. When Yilin enters her family, at least she will have a good life. It seems that the emperor will take care of her in-laws and relatives.

The more Empress Dowager Jiang thought about it, the more reasonable she felt, and she couldn't help but look at Xia Changsong several times.

Xia Tong stayed in the palace for more than a year and felt the old man's temper thoroughly. She was afraid that Empress Dowager Jiang would make a random match for her, so she asked Chunlan to tell Chang Qing and secretly go to her brother's place to report a letter.

Chunlan said, "Zhengqing is not here, I'll let the little monkey go."

His master An Ruhai followed closely behind the emperor and left him behind. Hou Abao was worried that he had nothing to do!

Xia Tong said in a daze: "Why is Changqing not here again?"

I have never seen him neglect his duties so much before. Did he go out of the palace and run away from the country?

Chunlan was also helpless, "How can I know about it? You know, Eunuch Chang has always been alone and refuses to deal with us."

This person is also a freak. Maybe the genius has some unknown quirks, so Xia Tong had to say, "Then please trouble the little monkey, remember to give him the silver."

Chunlan agreed to leave.

Compared to Xia Tong's leisure, Gu Mingzhu is much more busy. As the accompanying imperial physician, she must do her best to ensure the safety of everyone. At this moment, the sun shines in the sky, and many relatives and relatives are exposed to their faces as white as paper, sweating like rain, and there are signs of heatstroke.

Looking at the few medicinal herbs left in the medicine box, Gu Mingzhu couldn't help but feel worried. After all, she was not experienced enough. She didn't expect that there were so many families who followed her - there were not enough summer heat relief medicine.

A soft voice suddenly said, "Doctor Gu, I have cooked fragrant crust drinks and mung bean soup. I wonder if it will be helpful?"

Gu Mingzhu looked at the food box in her hand in surprise, "It's so good, fast, each family will get a bowl."

The man nodded and told the maid to go.

Only then did Gu Mingzhu realize that the girl looked very familiar, as if she had seen her somewhere - by the way, she was the sister who had visited Xia Zhaoyi during her confinement period, Miss Yu.

She smiled and nodded, "Miss Xia, is in good condition."

Xia Yu didn't expect that he still remembered her, and two red clouds flew out from his face, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Gu Mingzhu just thought she was ashamed to see a stranger and asked with concern, "Did Miss Xia come alone?"

Xia Yu shook her head, "And my brother, and... Princess Beirong."

Gu Mingzhu also heard about Jin Jina's son-in-law's recruitment and said with a smile, "It is naturally a pleasure to make your brother and the princess have a good relationship. Miss Xia should also plan for herself."

Of course, it was easier for the brother to marry his sister-in-law and sister. Xia Zhaoyi had no choice but to participate in the talent show, and she usually had to follow the order of the year and Geng.

The blush on Xia Yu's face subsided a little, and she whispered: "I don't want to get married yet."

This time it was Gu Mingzhu's turn to be puzzled, "Why?"

She had her own unscrupulous difficulties, but the little girl in front of her was in her youth, so how could she say such sad words?

Seeing that the other party didn't say anything, Gu Mingzhu couldn't ask. After thinking about it, she took out a delicate wind chime from her sleeve and said, "This one is hung under the eaves to suppress evil spirits, and the sound is also very good."

When you are young but think too much, you may not be able to sleep well in your dreams. Instead, this kind of distracting method is more useful than taking medicine.

Xia Yu took it happily, and then cherished it and hid it in her arms, "Thank you, Doctor."

Gu Mingzhu was about to say a few more words of comfort, but a cold palm was gently pressed on her shoulder.

Gu Mingzhu frowned, "Zhengqing, don't be so scary."

Changqing's pale face was still lifeless, "Knowing that he could not take responsibility, don't give people meaningless hope."

Gu Mingzhu:...

She didn't seem to understand anything this person was saying.

Xia Yu took two steps back timidly, rubbing the corners of her clothes without saying a word.

Gu Mingzhu guessed that she must have been frightened by Changqing. Seeing that there was no need to explain this, she just said to her gentlely: "Empress Zhaoyi is in the tent on the mountainside. Miss Xia, you should go find the empress."

Xia Yu nodded softly and never stayed any longer.

Seeing her leaving in a hurry, Gu Mingzhu turned around and glared at Changqing, "I haven't provoked you yet, why are you doing nothing?"

Changqing answered the question irrelevantly, "She likes you."

Gu Mingzhu actually saw something, but could she tell Xia Yu directly that she loved the wrong person? Instead of hurting people's hearts, it is better to silently protect this intention. Anyway, she will not achieve the right result with anyone. Over time, this relationship will naturally fade away.

It is incredible that Changqing is like this. Who is he? Why should he care about her own business?

The person who really cared about her was no longer there.

Gu Mingzhu pulled away the pale claw and said angrily: "Get up!"
