Returning to her seat, Ke Jing nodded to Dugu Jialuo to express her gratitude to her, and then she left the banquet first on the grounds that she was tired and wanted to go back to rest.

It was only a short while before the front foot stepped out of the palace hall, and a person hurriedly caught up behind him.Ke Jing stopped, turned around and looked at the person who came, who lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt down on one knee.

"My lord, Yuan Xiaoji, pays homage to the empress and concubine, and asks the empress to speak for a while."

As Yuan Xiaoju came to a place with few people, Ke Jing looked at the biological father in this body, and at the same time waited for him to speak.

She is not interested in this person, even if he is Yuanshi's biological father, she likes Dugu Jialuo a little more than Dugu Jialuo.At least Dugu Jialuo would take the time to visit her during the few days when she was seriously ill, but this Yuan Xiaoji, as a father, never set foot in the East Palace.

When Kejing looked at Yuan Xiaoju, Yuan Xiaoju also looked at this daughter who had just recovered from a serious illness.It's not that he feels guilty towards her. The moment he learned that she was ill, he wanted to quickly finish the work at hand and go to the Prince's Mansion to visit his daughter, but...

As an official of the imperial court, he had too much involuntary control and too much helplessness. In the face of family and state affairs, he chose state affairs, and he was destined to owe this only daughter.

In fact, he has owed his daughter more than once. Yuanshi has been raised by his wife since he was a child, including the big and small housework at home, and never let him intervene, so that he can handle the court or local affairs with peace of mind. thing.It wasn't until the day his wife left that he solemnly entrusted his daughter to him and asked him to take good care of him, that he realized from her daughter's eyes full of strangeness and alienation towards him that the busy life had made him and his daughter a close relationship. a familiar stranger.

What he promised, he still failed to fulfill his promise in the end. This was the pain of his life and the helplessness of his life.

So when he saw the woman who danced the sword in the hall today, he kept asking himself if this woman was his daughter with his own blood.Because he didn't know that his daughter could also dance swords.

"Will A Yuan blame Wei Wei for being cruel?"

With a trembling and tired voice and an old face, Ke Jing recalled that when she was still a princess, her father had summoned her to his palace.

She remembered that night, the moon was big and round, and the night wind was very gentle, but even though she was wearing a coat, she still felt cold, bone-chilling cold, and cold about the unknown future.

When she met Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, her father asked her the same question in this old tone.

Would you blame the emperor for being cruel?

At that time, the aloof emperor asked her like this.

strange?At that moment, she was moved, and she really didn't blame her anymore. On the way, she was full of resentment and unwillingness. In the end, because of his words, all her resentment, all her hatred, and all her dissatisfaction disappeared.

Under the dim candlelight, she looked at his blurred profile, and for the first time realized that the man who acted swiftly and resolutely, bravely and courageously, and who was favored by the world, after taking off the bright yellow dragon robe and taking off the heavenly crown, was actually He is also an ordinary father with a heart that loves his children.

And at that time, because of that sentence, she was wearing a golden phoenix crown and a fiery red robe, and she was going to an unknown place under the blowing of the guard of honor.

but……

"You still blame your father..." Yuan Xiaoju sighed, and his already vicissitudes of face became even older, "That's right, I haven't visited you since you married the prince, and you complain about it Me, of course."

"I owe you too much... Today's situation is also caused by me. I can't blame anyone. Seeing that your health is improving, being a father... I feel relieved."

Putting down his defensive posture, Ke Jing lowered his eyes and said, "Is this why my father came to me? If there is nothing else, the child will leave first."

"Ayuan! I'm sorry... I'll come to see you again in a few days."

The forward footsteps continued to move forward after a slight stagnation, the wind passed by head-on, and the paintings in the arms were blown up.Ke Jing walked away quickly without looking back, deliberately ignoring the two sad eyes behind her.

Walking outside the palace, she saw the coachman who was dozing on the carriage. She stopped, straightened her appearance and stepped forward.

"Your Majesty, don't you want to wait for the end?" Li Bo, the driver, was awakened by Ke Jing's patting, the spring was radiant and warm, and the sun was hitting his body so lazily that people just wanted to sleep.He thought that the banquet would not end so soon, so he squinted for a while, but the princess caught him dozing off.

He is considered an older servant in the East Palace. Although he is only a carriage driver, he has served so long and conscientiously. With his age, he is also respected in the palace. It's just that he is old and sometimes he can't stand it. Live, just like this spring day, spring sleep is not aware of dawn.If the prince sees it, it will be fine, but the person who finds him dozing off is the prince concubine, the only master with a bad temper in the entire East Palace, which means...

Ke Jing stepped into the carriage and got into the carriage without saying anything.

Uncle Li was even more frightened, he was sitting on the horsewhip, fearing that if he was not careful, he would offend the noble lord again and make him unable to eat.

Back in the East Palace, Ke Jing said before entering the door, "Take a good rest, and pick up the prince and the others in half an hour", leaving Uncle Li who was extremely entangled in his heart, and left without looking back.

"Uncle Li, what's the matter, are you still standing here?"

Uncle Li slowly turned his head, looked at the servant in rough clothes, and asked with a trembling voice: "Ah Fu, the princess...isn't you angry with the old slave?"

Ah Fu rubbed his forehead and recalled, "I didn't see her angry, what's wrong?"

"Ah Fu, I don't have to be sent back to my hometown anymore," Uncle Li wept with joy, shaking Ah Fu's shoulders back and forth, "Xiaohua's medical expenses for this month are all over! Huh——"

"I know, I know, Uncle Li, don't shake me, hey, it makes me dizzy."

"Woooo..."

"Slow down, my neck, my neck..."

Passing through the arch, Ke Jing saw Chun Yuan sitting on the steps with puffy cheeks, and Qiu Tang leaning against the pillar with folded arms, her indifferent face showed no expression.Qiutang was the first to see Kejing coming in, and it was Chunyuan who rushed up to greet him.

"Your Majesty, Xia Hua..."

Ke Jing raised her hand, with only one name, she knew why these two people were angry.But there is one thing, even Qiutang is so angry that Xia Hua is not under the same roof, it seems that things are not as simple as imagined.

She lifted the hem of her skirt and entered the room calmly. When she saw Ke Jing entering, Chunyuan changed her previous anger, and her expression became relaxed and comfortable.

As long as the princess comes back, that little hoof will look great!

Stepping into the living room of Fengqiyuan, Kejing caught a glimpse of the medicinal herbs scattered on the ground, and she knew at a glance that this medicine was specially formulated for her by Shui Sixin.Ke Jing recalled that Xia Hua Decoction had been the one who brought her the medicine all this time, presumably it was Chun Yuan who went to Shui Si Xin to get the medicine and was bumped into by her and had a quarrel.

"It's a waste to give such a delicious crystal cake to sick people!" Xia Hua's voice was vague, but she could vaguely hear the meaning behind her words.

Chunyuan's expression changed with anger, the Crown Princess has accepted her many times regardless of previous suspicions, this coquettish hoof is still so cheap!Bitch. People really are hypocritical, just like a dog can never change his personality!She wanted to teach Xia Hua a lesson, but was held back by Ke Jing.

"Ma'am..."

Ke Jing patted the back of her hand reassuringly, and quietly walked behind Xia Hua.

"Since it's so delicious, I'll reward you all."

Before the crystal cake could be swallowed, Xia Huateng stood up and looked straight at the woman standing in front of her. The expression on her face changed again and again, just like changing faces in a drama.Glancing at Chunyuan behind Kejing, Xia Hua's eyes flashed a hint of viciousness, and she hastily swallowed the crystal cake in her mouth.

"Why did the empress come back so early?" She moved her body to the side to cover up the evidence, but she saw Ke Jing walking towards her.

"My lady..."

Ke Jing ignored her, and poured a cup of tea with the teapot, and handed it to Xia Hua, "Drink some water, after eating so many pastries, aren't you thirsty?"

Xia Hua was really scared this time. Compared with the Yuan Shi who beat and kicked his servants when things went wrong, she was even more frightening now that she was calm.If it was before, she would have passed through at most a few blows, but now Yuanshi has no mood swings, and people can't guess her psychology, so she doesn't know what to do next.

Xia Hua remembered that she was bitten by a dog once when she was very young. The dog didn't bark at all when it saw her, but followed her quietly. At that time, she thought the dog liked her teasing it While playing, unexpectedly, the next second, she was attacked by a dog and bit her hard.

So far, she has deeply understood a truth, that is, a dog that can bite cannot bark.Staring blankly at the woman holding a cup of tea, Xia Hua felt that her old fear of being bitten by a dog had returned.

"Why don't you drink it?" Ke Jing looked at her with a smile, leaned the tea cup closer, and said, "The tea is still prepared in the morning. Although it is cold, it can also be used as an emergency."

Suddenly regaining consciousness, Xia Hua's expression was so complicated that she didn't know what words to use to describe it.Thin cold sweat broke out on her forehead, she tremblingly took the teacup from Ke Jing's hand, and did not drink it for a long time, her frightened expression seemed to be staring at a poison that could kill her at any time.

"Sister, are you there?" Yun Zhaoxun's voice came from outside the door, she stood in the sunlight, tiptoed to look into the door, "My sister heard that my sister was not feeling well, so I came here to check."

As soon as she finished speaking, there was the crisp sound of a cup being broken in the room, and she exchanged glances with her maid, Yun Zhaoxun rushed into Fengqiyuan in a hurry, and saw that straight back.A woman dressed as a servant girl fell on the ground, curled up, her face pale.She saw the woman in front of her turn her head slightly and looked at her sideways, with no expression on her face.

The sunlight shines on Kejing's side face through the wooden window lattice, but Yun Zhaoxun feels that there is a transparent cover around Yuanshi's body, preventing the light from entering and softening her cold expression.

Yun Zhaoxun suddenly shuddered. He had been in the sun for a while before, and his body was warm. At this moment, he was still cold.

"Sister, please help me announce the imperial physician." Ke Jing said coldly.
