The Princess's Deadly Daily Life

Chapter 84: Interception or revenge?

The road to Puzhou was not smooth. Due to the obstruction of mud and sand, the wheels were stuck and the carriage was shaking. Soon, people felt dizzy and unable to speak.

The carriage drove like this for an hour, and Han's mother in the carriage became increasingly restless, rubbing her forehead with her palm, her face pale.

Shan Luo noticed something was wrong and supported his wife, asking with concern, "Madam, are you feeling unwell? Do you need to stop and rest for a while?"

Mother Han was dizzy and speechless, and had already placed her hand on her arm.

Shan Luo was stunned for a moment, stopped the carriage, and then helped her get off.

Mother Han patted Shanluo on the shoulder. When she heard the birds singing and the breeze blowing in her ears, her face regained some color. "You are so thoughtful."

Shan Luo lowered her head, just like she always did when she was with her grandmother. She felt that the lady was very kind and was flattered that the lady did not treat her differently. "As you should, are you feeling better, madam?"

Mother Han smiled and said, "Much better."

Fortunately, Han Qi and the now demoted Han Sima looked back from time to time, and saw Han's mother's carriage stopped, so they stopped as well.

After getting off the carriage, Han Sima saw that his wife's face was as pale as paper, and he felt very distressed, so he went to take her to the grass to rest. Han Qi ordered the maids and servants to rest for a while and then set off again.

Mother Han looked at the green scenery, and the haze in her heart gradually dissipated. After a long pause, she looked eagerly at the pair of jade figures not far away, and sighed to Sima Youwei beside her: "It's really unpredictable. You and I have been together for decades, and now you have retired from the court, away from disputes, and I am also happy. Ah Qi is also at the age of marriage, and I am happy that a daughter is willing to marry me, but I didn't know that she was actually the prime minister's lost daughter, and I don't know whether it is good or bad."

Just now, Han's mother chatted with Shan Luo in the carriage. In addition to sympathy for her life experience, she felt more pity for her.

Now that she knew her life story, she could have recognized the prime minister as her relative and enjoyed the glory and wealth. But now that the Han family had been demoted, the daughters of the noble families that she had previously favored had chosen other husbands, and she did not want to be the prime minister's daughter, but was willing to marry Han Qi as a commoner.

With her indifferent nature, she would be a good match for Qi'er. The only thing she was afraid of was that when the prime minister came looking for her in the future, he would think that Qi Da had accidentally separated the two of them, which would be a fundamental blow to their lives.

Han Sima persuaded, "Although the prime minister is a perverse person, his current situation is no different from mine. How could he not know that the situation in the court could be in turmoil at any time? Whether he can keep his position is up to him. Why did he admit her and harm her?"

Han's mother didn't understand the ways of the court either, so she just wondered, "So not recognizing her relatives isn't necessarily a bad thing for her? But I heard that Prime Minister Cui is an arrogant person. He was dismissed from office many times and appointed Prime Minister many times. How could he see his own future?"

Sima Han's face showed an old look. "Don't think too much. I'm old now and can't do anything. I don't fight for power, and I can't give advice to the saint. It's also the saint's blessing that I'm away from the government. I don't have to worry about anything else for the rest of my life. My children and grandchildren will have their own happiness. However, when we get to Puzhou, life will be hard, but it will be more stable and comfortable than staying in Chang'an. You also need to take care of yourself. You need to have a good body to enjoy your grandchildren in the future."

Han's mother frowned at first, and then she and Han Sima looked at each other and smiled. The bumpy ride in the carriage had completely dissipated.

Why worry about the future? The key is to live well in the present.

The servant took out the kettle that had been prepared earlier from the carriage and placed it on a small table. Han Qi personally poured a few cups of water and brought them to his parents to serve. After Han's mother drank, she pushed him to pour a cup for Shan Luo as well.

He nodded, walked slowly to Shanluo, and asked softly, "Are you uncomfortable after the bumpy ride? Have some water."

Shan Luo stared blankly at the water in front of her, shook her head slightly, took the water he handed over, and shyly put her lips close to the edge of the bowl to moisten her mouth under his gaze. Suddenly she remembered that he hadn't drunk it yet, and hurriedly said, "Mr. Han is still thirsty? I'll go pour you a bowl."

Han Qi stopped her in her tracks.

Shan Luo raised her eyes with a blushing face as she watched him take the porcelain cup she had used and drink it all in one gulp.

I only heard him say: "If we talk about noble and humble, you are marrying down. If we don't talk about it, you and I are both commoners. We will be an ordinary couple in the future. You don't need to be cautious in front of me."

She was stunned, only to find that his eyes were serious, as if marrying him was a fact. The blush had not yet faded, and she couldn't help but nodded in a daze.

"It seems that Luo'er has been worried. Can you tell me about it? I am willing to share your worries." Han Qi took her hand and took in her expression. "I have said in my heart that I will take care of your voice, appearance and smile. If you are sad, I am also to blame."

Shan Luo saw that Han Qi had seen through her thoughts. She raised her eyes and choked up slightly. She did not intend to hide it and said, "I did something wrong. I feel very regretful and uneasy."

"What's the matter? Tell me."

She told Han Qi the reason. Han Qi stroked her hair and looked at her guilty eyes with a soft light in his eyes. "So that's how it is. No one is perfect. Fortunately, you didn't make a big mistake. I believe that you made the choice after careful consideration. I also believe that you stepped forward to take the blame in order to protect the princess. But if you still take the blame when you were framed, then you yourself will be trapped in the quagmire, let alone protecting others? In my opinion, the princess did not blame you, so we should be grateful and promise not to do it again."

She lowered her eyes and pursed her lips, her eyes sparkling. After his analysis, she understood much more clearly and nodded obediently.

"What a couple!"

Such a loud roar really scared people.

At the intersection not far away, there was a man standing, holding a sickle and looking domineering. Upon closer inspection, it was Zhang Er.

He had been following them for a long time and wanted to follow them to the destination before showing up again, but who knew that the couple's affectionate behavior was really eye-catching.

The two of them looked carefully, and Shan Luo was immediately frightened and turned pale, hiding beside Han Qi.

"It's you?" Han Qi looked at the man opposite him, and when he remembered who he was, he rekindled the anger that had not dissipated a while ago, "Do you want to intercept him, or take revenge?"

The man walked forward a few steps, with a sickle hook on his arm, thinking he had frightened them. He glanced at Shan Luo and regarded her as a worn-out shoe, "That day I mistakenly took Bai Liu as a treasure. She is unlucky for her parents and ancestors, and she is also a broken body. Even if she was given to me, Zhang Er, I would not want her!"

Han Qi's eyes were stern and burning with anger, he said word by word: "I'll give you a chance - get out!" If his parents hadn't been there to watch, he would have stepped forward and beaten him until he was speechless.

Shan Luo was so frightened that she was speechless. Suddenly, a big hand grabbed her sweaty palm to comfort her and protected her behind him.

This scene seemed just like the first time they met.

Sima Han and his mother came over, not knowing what was going on, so they asked, "What happened?"

Han Qi hurriedly explained: "Mother and grandfather, this man is a lunatic. Don't listen to his dirty words. Wait for me in the car. I will explain to you later."
