Chapter 172

After Zhao Xiyan and Qiu Ruyu had a quarrel, Zhao Xiyan never came to Wenshan Palace to visit Qiu Ruyu again, but Qi Chen was allowed to see her.The cause of the fire in Yaohua Palace was soon found out. Someone set the fire on purpose, but it was not known who set it on purpose.Zhao Xiyan knew in his heart that Qiu Ruyu pretended to die in order to cover up his suicide.However, for such a big matter as the flood in the inner courtyard of the palace, we have to continue to investigate it, and it is always suspicious if there is no result.Zhao Xiyan picked out a few eunuchs who were domineering and bullying on weekdays to act as scapegoats, saying that they got into a fight because of gambling money and the uneven distribution of spoils, and they accidentally knocked over the candlestick and set it on fire.With these few scapegoats, the case of Yaohua Palace's water leakage is settled.After several arrogant and domineering old eunuchs were executed, the young eunuchs and maids in the palace cheered for joy.It was only at this time that Zhao Xiyan realized that all the evil deeds of these old eunuchs were really not wronged when they were scapegoats.This can be regarded as not only ending the case of water leakage in Yaohua Palace, but also dealt with the villains in the inner courtyard by the way, it was really unintentional.Zhao Xiyan decreed to rebuild Yaohua Palace, and Concubine Xian and the eldest son of the emperor moved to Changxin Palace temporarily.

Qiu Ruyu hurt Zhao Xiyan that day, and she was thinking about Zhao Xiyan's injury in her heart, but she no longer thought about committing suicide.Instead, I feel guilty every day, thinking of what I said that day, I regret it.She poured out all her anger and grievances on Zhao Xiyan, completely forgetting that Zhao Xiyan didn't owe her anything at all, but she owed Zhao Xiyan herself.Back then, if Zhao Xiyan hadn't taken her into the palace at the risk of being targeted by King Lixin, she would have been pregnant before marriage, and she would have been soaked in a pig cage to die when she returned home.She is a weak woman with a big belly and is alone outside, not to mention whether she can live well, I am afraid that this child will not be born at all.She suddenly remembered that when she entered the palace, Zhao Xiyan came to visit her every day and took care of everything.She also remembered that after she gave birth to Qichen, Zhao Xiyan ran in and out every day.The child is not his, but he has tried his best.But after Zhao Xiyan got married, she rarely came to Yougu Garden. She was jealous but she dared not say it, nor could she admit it.

Qiu Ruyu was moved from Wenshan Palace to be taken care of by Changxin Palace general, and she stopped making noises about committing suicide, and gradually recovered.Zhao Xiyan's arm was injured, and he often endured dealing with government affairs as usual, but he didn't dare to move around to avoid being discovered.In the past few days, Zhao Xiyan didn't dare to go to the other three daughters' palaces, and they all stayed in Weiyang Palace to raise them.Zhao Xiyan didn't dare to let them know, if they found out, they might have to go to Changxin Palace to trouble Qiu Ruyu.Xia Shuning helped Zhao Xiyan to heal the wound, and on the second day, she used the authority of the imperial concubine to punish all the palace servants of Yaohua Palace.Xia Shuning didn't really want to punish these palace servants, but only slightly punished them. This was to warn Qiu Ruyu not to hurt her husband again.

Zhao Xiyan didn't go to the palace of the other three girls, but only stayed in Weiyang Palace, how could the other three girls agree?So when Zhao Xiyan was dealing with the government affairs in Feishuang Palace during the day, the three of them took turns, and Zhao Xiyan was a little tired from dealing with it.In the past few days, Ulan Rongruo has been making trouble for Zhao Xiyan to fulfill his promise to take her out for an outing, but the wound on Zhao Xiyan's hand is still wrapped with a thick bandage, which may be easy to reveal.But Zhao Xiyan had no choice but to promise her to take her out of the palace at the beginning of next month to play with Ulan Rongruo.Zhao Xiyan thought that it would be better to wait for a while to let the wound on his arm heal, otherwise they would definitely know about it if he went out like this.Who knew that when Ulan Rongruo got up the next morning and went to Fengqi Palace to pay her respects, she even showed off in front of the other three girls.Su Qingshu and Yan Fengjun were not convinced anymore. Why did they only take Wulan Rongruo out for an outing? They should be his women too.This matter came up to Zhao Xiyan again, Zhao Xiyan was the first and the second eldest, and he didn't know what to do.After Wulan Rongruo finished speaking, she regretted it. She only hated herself for talking too fast, and now she was shooting herself in the foot.Ulan Rongruo just wanted Zhao Xiyan to take her out alone, and didn't want anyone else to join in, so she hugged Zhao Xiyan's arm and acted like a baby, wanting to go alone.Ulan Rongruo just touched the wound, and Zhao Xiyan was sweating from the pain, but he didn't dare to show it, so he could only grit his teeth and endure it.Zhao Xiyan was in so much pain that she agreed, and Ulan Rongruo happily asked Zhao Xiyan for a kiss before returning to her Oasis Palace.Zhao Xiyan waited for Ulan Rongruo to leave before he opened his sleeves to take a look. The wound was open again and blood was oozing out.

On the second day, Su Qingshu came to Feishuang Palace early in the morning to wait, and pulled Zhao Xiyan's sleeve and said that he also wanted to go out of the palace to play.Just after coaxing the queen back to the palace, Yan Fengjun came to look for Zhao Xiyan with his daughter in his arms, saying that her daughter wanted to leave the palace to see the outside world.Zhao Xiyan had nothing to do with these women, and after several days of deliberation, he told them that in May, he would take them to the Qiushui Villa of Han Niangniang for seven days.Zhao Xiyan thought that he had been on the throne for several years, and now the throne was firmly seated, and there was no major disturbance. It was not a big problem if the emperor was away from Beijing for a month or two.What's more, he hasn't been able to rest for so many years, and he is tired and tired after being trapped in the palace all day, so going out to relax is also very good.What's more, Qiushui Mountain Villa has a close relationship with the royal family, so going to play in micro-services will not waste people's money.What's more, he wanted to see with his own eyes how powerful Qiushui Villa was, which made his father so afraid that he had to kill his own son.Zhao Xiyan is now on the throne, there are some things that he would not consider before, but now he must.Qiushui Mountain Villa has gone through three dynasties, and the country has risen and fallen several times. How can it be so lucky without much ability?What's more, if it wasn't for Qiushui Mountain Villa on the day of seizing the heir, Daqi might be doomed.

As soon as the news that Weifu was going out to play in the palace came out, the four girls were overjoyed, but Xia Shuning was still worried about the wound on Zhao Xiyan's arm, but after counting the days and early May, it was estimated that everything would be healed, so she felt relieved.Zhao Xiyan stabilized the queen mother in advance and prevented her from playing around. Zhao Xiyan was most at ease leaving the queen mother in the palace.The queen mother didn't say anything, knowing Zhao Xiyan's thoughts on Qiushui Villa, she just stayed in the palace and sat in command.Zhao Xiyan had discussed it with Han Qiuyi early on. Han Qiuyi watched Zhao Xichang grow up since he was a child, and knew that he was a playful master, so he didn't think too much about it, so he hurriedly informed Qiushui Villa of the date to make preparations.This time Weifu went out of the palace to Qiushui Villa, Han Qiuyi brought Zhao Linghan back together.Han Qiuyi took Zhao Linghan back to visit her biological father. After Shisan died in the prison, Han Qiuyi lost all thoughts, stole the body and ran back to Qiushui Villa, where Shisan was buried in Qiushui Villa.Han Qiuyi hoped that Zhao Xiyan would bring Qichen with him, since they were all his children, even though they were not in name, they should go back and pay homage to their biological father in person.Zhao Xiyan agreed, and he had the intention to take a few older children out of the palace to play together.We can't let the children be trapped in the palace all the time, ignorant of the sufferings of the people and the affairs of the world.He intends to take this opportunity to take some sensible children to see the people of Daqi.His children have been well-clothed and well-fed since they were born, and they have never stepped out of the palace. He can't raise them into the children of a wealthy family who are as cold as bones.

It's still a while before May, but it's almost the beginning of April.Zhao Xiyan promised Ulan Rongruo to take her out of the palace alone at the beginning of the month, and he would never break his promise.No, he changed into casual clothes early in the morning and went to Ganquan Palace to pick her up.Zhao Xiyan was going to take Ulan Rongruo out of the palace today, wearing a light and simple green shirt and a pair of ordinary black boots.Without a hair tie, he simply tied it with a headband, and held a folding fan with tassels in his hand wearing a white jade finger ring. In addition, he had no beard, and he looked like a romantic young man who did not reach the crown.Ulan Rongruo wore a white blouse embroidered with magnolia, replaced all the nobile hairpins with jade hairpins, and tied the hair bun of her youngest daughter who had not left the pavilion. She was nearly [-] years old, but she was as good as a [-]th.Holding a folding fan, Zhao Xiyan's eyes lit up when he saw her pure and refined, and couldn't help laughing.Zhao Xiyan stared at Ulan Rongruo so shyly, after a long time, Zhao Xiyan took out the veil from his bosom and put it on her.

"Is the concubine so shameful? You have to put a veil on the concubine when you go out to the emperor."

"I'm very stingy, your beauty can only be my own, and others can't even look at it."

"The emperor is really stingy!"

After hearing Zhao Xiyan's words, Ulan Rongruo immediately became elated, willingly put on the veil, and the smile from the corner of her mouth ran into her eyes.May I ask which woman doesn't like her husband to praise her beauty?Which woman doesn't like such stinginess?The two of them changed into horses when they left the palace gate in a carriage. Zhao Xiyan knew that Ulan Rongruo liked to ride horses so he changed. The two rode together and ran to the street.Ulan Rongruo was raised in the inner courtyard since she was a child, and at most she ran horses, and she never took a step out of the Mobei Palace.After finally reaching the age of marriage, she was directly sent to the Daqi Palace, so she has always wanted to go out for a stroll.Ulan Rongruo is very fresh when he is on the street, and he has to take a look at everything.Fortunately, she grew up in the prince's mansion, and she was well-behaved since she was a child. Even if she was so emotional, she didn't lose her dignity and demeanor.Zhao Xiyan led her all the way, afraid that someone who was not paying attention would not know where she went.Ulan Rongruo is curious about everything, and Zhao Xiyan doesn't find her annoying, and always explains to her patiently.I don't know if it's a woman's nature, but Ulan Rongruo especially likes to buy some messy things, and Xiangyun carried them all the way.Ulan Rongruo cared about the freshness, and accidentally stepped on Zhao Xiyan's feet several times. Zhao Xiyan didn't blame her, but pampered her head instead.Ulan Rongruo just liked Zhao Xiyan pampering her, so she was so courageous that she secretly kissed Zhao Xiyan on the street.

When it was time for lunch, Zhao Xiyan knew that Ulan Rongruo liked beef and mutton, so he took her to the old shop to taste Daqi's mutton soup.Zhao Xiyan doesn't like mutton, and always feels the taste is too strong, making him dizzy.But Ulan Rongruo loves to eat, so he wanted to bring her to try Daqi's mutton.Sure enough, as soon as Ulan Rongruo entered the store and smelled the unique smell of mutton, the glutton in his stomach was aroused.The two chose the most remote place to sit down, and Zhao Xiyan helped her take off the veil on her face.

"Why did my husband take off the veil for me? Didn't you say that you are too stingy to let people take a look?"

"I don't understand how you will eat next time? This location is remote, I block you, and others can't see it."

"Husband, is it possible that you are still afraid that I will run away with someone? You really have no conscience. You have worked so hard to give birth to your son, and you are still afraid that I will run away with someone. Hmph!"

"Nonsense, I brought you to eat delicious food, but I can't stop your little mouth."

Zhao Xi stretched out his index finger and thumb to pinch Ulan Rongruo's lips gently, motioning to cover her mouth.Ulan Rongruo was spoiled like a little girl, so she took Zhao Xiyan's hand and bit him into the tiger's mouth.Ulan Rongruo had always only bit him, but never really bit him.Zhao Xiyan just smiled helplessly, and pinched her pearly earlobe.The mutton soup was served soon, and Zhao Xiyan ordered all the specialties in the store, and set up a table full for Ulan Rongruo to choose from.Zhao Xiyan filled a bowl of broth for her first, pushed it in front of her, and wiped the spoon for her.Ulan Rongruo took a sip of the mutton soup from the spoon, her eyes lit up immediately, and she began to drink the soup in small sips.Zhao Xiyan asked Xiaoer to bring a knife and sliced ​​mutton for her.The mutton in the store is all sliced, but it's a bit big for Ulan Rongruo.Zhao Xiyan was afraid that she would not be able to finish his mouth, so he re-shot her a mouthful, feeding her a mouthful or two from time to time.Zhao Xiyan couldn't eat mutton by himself, so he just ordered some vegetarian dishes and a bowl of rice to deal with it.Ulan Rongruo doesn't eat much, so eating some of everything is almost enough.When Ulan Rongruo was full, Zhao Xiyan also dropped the chopsticks and took her to wash her hands, because she accidentally got the soup on her hands.Ulan Rongruo's sleeves were not easy to fiddle with, they were about to get wet.Zhao Xiyan wrapped her arms around her from behind in time, tied up her sleeves, and took her hands to wash them together.Ulan Rongruo's whole heart warmed Zhao Xiyan, and she was really caring. She felt that Zhao Xiyan was more gentle than Chunfeng.Zhao Xiyan took out a handkerchief and wiped her hands clean before drying his own.Ulan Rongruo threw herself into his arms and whispered.

"really like you."

"I'm used to saying nice things, do you think I'll forget about you biting me just now if you say nice things?"

"Remember better, anyway, apart from me, no sister dares to bite you, right?"

"You also know? You are the only one in the world who dares to bite me and twist my ears. I see that you not only like to eat beef and mutton, but also like to eat bear's heart and leopard gall."

"So what? Don't say bear heart and leopard courage, even if it is dragon liver and phoenix heart, if I say I want to eat it, you will think of a way to bring it to me. Who told you to spoil me!"

Ulan Rongruo's eyebrows and eyes were smiling, and the corners of her mouth were raised even brighter than this spring.Zhao Xiyan originally wanted to pretend to scare her and say that he would not favor her in the future, but seeing her so bright and charming, he couldn't say anything.Zhao Xi extended his hand to Ulan Rongruo and invited her out.

"Would you like to take you out of the city on horseback to eat? I heard that spring flowers are blooming in the outskirts of the city, and willows are blowing on the embankment. It's very spring."

"take me!"

Ulan Rongruo generously handed Zhao Xiyan her hand, lowered her head slightly, and smiled a little shyly.Zhao Xiyan led her for a walk before taking her on a horse out of the city.Ulan Rongruo was in his arms, smiling all triumphantly.In Qiushou in the second year of Tianyuan, she was envious of Xia Shuning being able to ride with him, nestle in his arms and enjoy all his tenderness.It took her three full years to sit in his arms, and she was finally able to be protected by him, how could she be unhappy.Zhao Xiyan led her through the whole spring on horseback. Wulan Rongruo spotted a sparsely populated area, and asked Zhao Xiyan to stop the horse. She leaned her neck and offered a sweet kiss.Unlike superficial skimming, Ulan Rongruo wants more.
