Chapter 396
When Xiao Xu heard her relaxed tone, he thought about the two princesses and family members in Prince Gong's mansion. The excitement of the wedding was as close as someone poured his head over.
"Qingqing, you don't have to pay attention to those people in the future. When you go to the palace, we have our own yard. My father has many women, but I am very fickle. Those people are lonely in the deep house and will be troublesome. If you don't like them in the future, they will ignore them."
Seeing Xiao Xu's anxious sweat on his forehead, Chu Junlan laughed: "Okay, I wasn't talking slander just now. I do think that life in the mansion is much more interesting. I am a person who is too idle. I can come to practice my hands and enjoy it. Isn't it great? Besides, when I come to the royal palace in the future, I have to do something for you. You are the eldest son, and you see that there are many people who are jealous. Do you still expect to live a dull life? Besides, I heard what you said before, it was strange that my mother-in-law died suddenly back then."
It turned out that Chu Junlan said seriously that he wanted to marry him, and he had already taken into account all the bumpy days that might be present in the future.
This is different from the agreement they agreed at the beginning. She helped him treat his illness and gave her shelter. However, now it seems that he clearly pulled her into the water. Outsiders may think that becoming the prince's princess is a great honor, but only he himself knows what is going on in the palace. Chu Junlan is living a good life in the Duke of Maoguo's mansion. Marrying him means entering another battlefield without gunpowder.
"Qingqing..." Xiao Xu spread his arms, hugged her in his arms, and pecked and kissed her hair that was emitting a faint fragrance from an angle she could not see.
Chu Junlan smiled "hehe" and couldn't help but raise his hand and rub Xiao Xu's long hair scattered behind him.
Xiao Xu's hair has become straight and hard, and he is a very stubborn person.
Chu Junlan couldn't help but smile.
If he was not stubborn enough, and when he learned that his mother had died suddenly at a young age, his father might not be his biological father, he would probably have been unable to survive long ago. How could he pretend to be stupid after being poisoned? How could he find the second poison to check and balance the first one?
This matter is simple, but only he knows how much pain he suffers from. But not only has he grown up, he can learn so many things.
Chu Junlan hugged Xiao Xu now, as if he was hugging a miracle of competing.
The two hugged each other quietly for a moment, and Xiao Xu slowly realized that the one holding Wen Xiang and Wei Wei were red, and his face turned red with a "sky" and he was reluctant to push her away, but he was embarrassed to tell him to find his stiffness, so he could only hide behind him.
Seeing his actions, Chu Junlan let go of his hand and smiled and said, "Have you reported to the Emperor about Tiandao Mountain?"
When she heard her talk about the serious matters, she did not notice his embarrassment. Xiao Xu quietly breathed a sigh of relief, tidied up his clothes and sat upright, and said seriously: "I want to tell him this after seeing the emperor and uncle, I am afraid that I can't explain it clearly in the letters, and there are many more misunderstandings."
Seeing that Xiao Xu was so serious, Chu Junlan realized the seriousness of the matter.
"The emperor is in his prime, why is he so obsessed with finding the way to immortality? Moreover, the legend on the Heavenly Dao Mountain is very fake at first. The emperor is so wise and he can even believe it?"
Xiao Xu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The emperor actually didn't believe these things in the early years. Tiandao Mountain has existed for more than a hundred years. The emperor used to think it was a joke. But recently, the emperor has listened to many legends about Doctor Qi and was obsessed with Changshengfang. He could not find anyone here. When Changshengfang had no hope, he placed his hope on Tiandao Mountain."
Xiao Xu lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then whispered in Chu Junlan's ear: "The emperor began to believe in Tiandao Mountain because he used their elixirs. Perhaps the elixirs are effective, and the legend on the mountain is very touching, which made the emperor really moved."
Chu Junlan nodded and said worriedly: "The emperor asked me if I was a disciple of Doctor Qi. I said I was not sure. I don't know if there is a place for immortality in this world. If Emperor Daoshan cannot rely on it today, I am so persistent, I am afraid that it will hurt my body if I am too disappointed. After I go back, you should persuade the emperor more."
Xiao Xu also frowned worriedly and nodded, "I will be careful."
Chu Junlan and Xiao Xu no longer delayed their time. The next morning, the team set off for Beijing. Although they caught the biggest snowstorm this year, they arrived at the capital as fast as possible.
"Let Jing Yu send you back to the house, General You and I will come to the palace to meet the saint." Xiao Xu tightened the hair collar of Chu Junlan's cloak.
Chu Junlan smiled and nodded, waved his hand at him in the brass hand warmer, then sat back to the carriage and ordered his husband to set off.
The capital was covered with silver at this time. When the carriage was moving, the wheels pressed over the snowy ground and made a creaking sound. Occasionally, the wind blew by, and the curtain was lifted a little, and some wind and snow were swept into it.
As soon as Xiao Xu entered the city, he ordered someone to go to the Duke of Maoguo's Mansion to report the news. As soon as Chu Junlan's carriage turned around and passed the archway, the door of Duke of Maoguo's mansion, who was wearing a dog-skin hat, cheered and turned around and shouted: "Miss Lan is back!" Then Sa came up to greet him.
"Miss Lan!"
"Oh." Chu Junlan lifted the curtain of the car and said with a smile, "It's a cold day, thank you for your hard work, you've been waiting outside for a long time."
"Oh, Miss Lan, you have lost your little one. This is all your duty. Please come in quickly. The prince and the prince's wife have sent someone to ask several times."
The carriage entered the side door of the Duke of Maoguo's mansion, and a servant had already prepared a sedan chair for transportation.
But Chu Junlan was impatient and asked someone to lift him, but his steps were faster, so he simply ordered the servants to retreat and go to the Chuhuamen.
As soon as I entered the second door, a servant lady replied to "Chunhui Garden".
Chu Junlan smiled and entered the door of Chunhui Garden, and saw Xu wearing a dark green gold-woven cotton cloak, standing under the corridor looking forward.
As soon as she came back, Xu's face opened with a happy smile and quickly stepped down the steps: "Sister Lan! He's back!"
"Mom!" Chu Junlan quickly went to salute Xu, and then hugged Xu and didn't want to let go.
"Mom, my daughter misses you so much." After half a month of going out, she experienced the terrible thing of Xiao Xu's disappearance. Now that she has returned home, she feels scared. Especially when she sees Xu, the weakness in her heart is no longer hidden, as if a young bird returns to the court, burying her face on Xu's shoulders, and tears almost surges up.
Xu smiled so hard that he couldn't stop and patted Chu Junlan on the shoulder: "Silly girl, she's only been out for half a month, and she's just thinking about homework like this? How can I be so good when I get married in the future?"
Madam Guo and Su Qin and others were laughing funny.
Chu Junlan naturally would not tell Xu about what happened outside. He blinked his long eyelashes and endured his tears, and smiled and said, "I'm not afraid of getting married. The prince promised me that I could come back to live at any time."
