many worries

winter solstice.

Qiao Yu was wrapped up tightly, with a food box on her wrist, and she came back from the imperial dining room quickly.The road was deserted, with few people to be found, and the dead branches and dry grass were covered with thin hoarfrost, freezing to the bone.

He didn't care about the rules by himself anymore, he jumped up and down all the way in order to move his hands and feet, and finally reached the gate of the Taiqing Palace, Qiao Yu stopped on the steps, looked up at the two tall, door god-like two a guard.

Lu Zhao has a good temper, Qiao Yu was bolder in front of him, and went directly to Lu Zhao's cold saber, "I brought a lot of dumplings back, and I can give each of the guards a plate!"

They are not as good as the imperial guards, they can show their faces in front of Emperor Yuande, they have a great future, but they work hard, they have few orders, and the food is not very good. Not much.Xin Xin carefully prepared two extra copies in advance and asked Qiao Yu to give them to the guards.

Lu Zhao patted him on the head, and said in a low voice, "Keep down, if you keep shouting, who wouldn't know?"

Qiao Yu covered her mouth and didn't dare to speak anymore. She knelt down and opened the food box, put down the dumplings and sneaked in through the small door.

He trotted all the way to Jing Yan's room, the prince was sitting on a chair by the window, the window was half open, cold wind came in, the faint light passed through the window lattice, illuminating the small half of Jing Yan's side face, his eyebrows and eyes were half closed, reflecting on the scriptures in his hand.Qiao Yu was facing the wind when he entered the door, so he immediately shrank his head and asked loudly, "Your Highness, I'm back, why didn't you close the window, it's really cold."

Jing Yan was startled, closed the book, threw it on the table, got up and closed the window, his back was clear and quiet, turned around and waved to Qiao Yu, "Bored and sleepy, let the wind blow and refresh yourself."

In fact, this is not the case. The Taiqing Palace lacks food and clothing, and there are not enough candles. Unless necessary, Jing Yan seldom uses candles to read books in the dim light outside.

Qiao Yu ran up to Jing Yan in a "pattaptaptap", confidently saying, "Your Highness will not be bored or sleepy when I come back!"

He stood on tiptoe, put the food box on the table, opened the lid as if showing off, brought out two plates of white and fat dumplings, and chirped with Jing Yan about what Xin Xin told him today.

Defu, Dequan and Liuyu are all dead, and they can no longer find him.

Qiao Yu had to work hard to refrain from telling Jing Yan about her grievances, pretending to say an interesting thing that can be seen everywhere, not yet satisfied, saying that Liu Yu has no conscience, but the raised ending still exposed his Be careful.

Jing Yan lowered his eyes slightly, not exposing his lies.

Of course he already knew.From Defu Dequan's death in Taiqing Palace to their death in Shenyun Palace, the complete corpses will never be found, so it will be considered an end.

In this house, the death of one or two is not a big deal.Even Shen Yungong, such as Defu Dequan, was in charge of Shen Yungong, but he was busy talking about it in private for two days, and then went to praise Shenghai again.

Now Sheng Hai is the proud person in the eyes of Concubine Feng Gui. He is a short fat man who can talk very well. The person who did well, most of the little eunuchs and maids of Shenyun Palace liked him more than the two brothers.

Jing Yan stood there thinking for a moment, not fully focused on Qiao Yu.He suddenly raised his eyes slightly, the sky outside was gray and the cumulus clouds were low, as if it was about to snow.

A storm is coming.

Qiao Yu was talking to Jing Yan, talking about happy things, but seeing that he was absent-minded, he groaned and chirped a few times, feeling a little unhappy, turned around and ran away on short legs.

Because it was Jing Yan who failed him first, Qiao Yu thought to herself that she could be willful for a while.Qiao Yu was very curious about the screen made by Jing Yan himself, and wanted to touch it, but usually when he wanted to see it, the crown prince always stopped him, either changing the topic, or just hugging him and playing around. Yes, Qiao Yu forgot about it.

Today, he finally found an opportunity, Qiao Yu jumped in front of the screen, he was thin and small, slipped through the gap like a slippery live fish, and fell onto the bed.

The bed was not as soft as Qiao Yu expected, but rather hard, and hit his head, Qiao Yu was so painful that he covered his head and curled up into a ball, but he still managed to quickly turn over and look around.

Probably because the screen blocked the light, it was dark inside, but after all, I could still see the general idea.This place is very different from Qiao Yu's soft and warm bed. The quilt is still spring and autumn, with a thin layer, neatly folded next to the pillow, and there is no stove next to it, everything looks cold.

Qiao Yu was so dumbfounded that she lay on the edge of the bed, her mind was so full of this matter that she even forgot about her surroundings, her arms went limp, and half of her body almost fell off the edge of the bed, hitting her face on the ground.

Fortunately, Jing Yan came in time, stretched out his long arms, picked Qiao Yu up, hugged him into his arms, and sighed again, "The older I get, the more I go back, I almost fell off the bed."

Qiao Yu didn't hear this sentence. He was very naive and ignorant of other people's affairs, but he was very keen on Jing Yan's affairs, and he thought a few beats faster, and he understood it all at once. completed.

The Department of Punishment has always skimped on the rules, they are greedy even for candles, let alone such valuable things as quilts and charcoal fires.That is, there were not many things sent. After moving twice by himself, he sent all the things back to the Taiqing Palace. If there was such a small amount, it was probably all in his own room.

But the prince has neither a warm quilt nor a stove, because he gave these to himself.

Thinking of this, his heart felt sore, astringent and bitter, terribly sad, he grabbed Jing Yan's sleeve and asked: "Even making this screen is to hide from me, to keep me from knowing, right?"

And I didn't know anything, didn't pay attention to anything, and it was clearly agreed that I would play A Ci who took good care of him in the future.

Qiao Yu was still in Jing Yan's arms, his head was hanging down, his long eyelashes trembling slightly, his voice was no longer sweet and soft as usual, but extremely low, "I'm such a fool."

Jing Yan planned to keep it a secret from him.

In the past, when he did things, he always paid for his rewards, instead of silently offering and sacrificing himself.Even in the past, he treated Qiao Yu like this. Everything he did for Qiao Yu should be known and remembered by him, and never forgotten.But after entering the Taiqing Palace, it was different, he seemed to have changed his temper, because he could accurately guess how sad this little fool would be if he knew about it, and would not accept it, so he would rather Qiao Yu not know that he What did he do.

Jing Yan smiled lightly, or there was no difference.

Just making Xiaoyu in his arms happy and carefree is more important than anything else.
