Empress Dowager Empress Dowager

Chapter 308 Falling In Love
It was another late autumn, with a gentle breeze, but the streets in Shangjing were still prosperous, unaffected by the cold weather at all.

A group of five people, one carriage, three horses, quietly left the upper capital and headed for the mysterious Western Region. There were two young women sitting in the carriage. From their clothes, it could be seen that they were in the upper capital. The status is noble, and the two have beautiful faces, and one of them is even worse. From her gestures, one can see a graceful atmosphere.

These two people are Huo Mingzhu and Jian Jian.

And those who rode forward on horseback were Baili Jingqi, Feng Wei, and Fang Tieyi.

They are here to find treasure. They are different from ordinary treasure hunters. Their purpose is not for individuals, but for the whole Dayong. They are bound to get the treasure.

As long as the treasures of the Western Regions are in his hands, Dayong will not be afraid of anyone's attack for 30 years. Some of them have money, who should they be afraid of?

When they arrived at the outskirts, a horse rode up closely behind them. Feng Wei had noticed it a long time ago, so he specially drove the horse to Baili Jingqi and asked Baili Jingqi for instructions.

The group stopped.

And the rider behind him took advantage of this to catch up, and the ones on the horseback were Lin Yunxi and Sulu.

Seeing these two people, Huo Mingzhu felt dumbfounded. Fang Tieyi was the most straightforward, and directly pulled Sulu off the horse's back. Sulu accidentally fell down, but Fang Tieyi caught her. hinder.

Fang Tieyi yelled at Sulu angrily: "You are a woman, and you are like a man. How decent is it?"

"Who told you and the Queen Mother to run away secretly? If you don't take me with you, I will follow you." Su Hao was also very angry. The two most important people in her life went to take risks, but left her alone. Going to the capital, if she hadn't woken up suddenly after having a nightmare, she wouldn't know that they left overnight.

Lin Yunxi also looked unhappy, but he couldn't blame anyone.

Huo Mingzhu didn't want to bring Sulu and Lin Yunxi with her. Lin Yunxi had a princess by his side. If he had something, what would the princess do?As for Sulu, she died in the Western Regions in her last life.

Baili Jingqi obviously understood Huo Mingzhu's thoughts, he glanced at Lin Yunxi and said, "My son-in-law, go back."

It was rare for Lin Yunxi to resist the decree. He looked at Baili Jingqi resolutely and said, "You must go. It is obviously not enough for the emperor and empress to only have General Feng and General Fang around."

Lin Yunxi also had a plan in mind. If he was in danger, Fang Tieyi would definitely save his wife first, and Feng Wei was probably based on Baili Jingqi, and Jian Jian was a weak woman. Huo Mingzhu to rescue?So, who will protect Huo Mingzhu?
This is why Lin Yunxi wanted to follow.

"Cousin, you have to defend this country for me and the emperor." Huo Mingzhu didn't say anything else, and directly handed over such a heavy responsibility, letting Lin Yunxi take over this hot potato.

Lin Yunxi was stunned.

Huo Mingzhu said with a smile: "That day the princess still enters the palace to greet Ai's family, congratulations to the son-in-law who is about to become a father."

Lin Yunxi was dumbfounded, why didn't he know about this matter.

Huo Mingzhu said with a smile: "Go back, don't make the princess worry."

Only then did Lin Yunxi cup his hands towards Huo Mingzhu: "My humble minister respectfully sends off the emperor, empress dowager."

As for Sulu, there is no way to drive her away, Huo Mingzhu knew very well, so she could only look at Sulu, and said to Tie Yi, "General Fang, from now on, you will be responsible for Sulu's safety."

"But..." Fang Tieyi wanted to say something else.

Huo Mingzhu said: "This is the order of the Ai family."

Only then did Fang Tieyi say: "Yes, the general will follow orders."

"Sulu, come up." After the accident was resolved, the group continued on their way.

In the carriage, Su Hui's first reaction when she saw Jian Jian was to be stunned. She looked at Jian Jian stupidly, unable to close her mouth for a long time. Sit inside and look outside the carriage, pretending to enjoy the scenery.

In my ears, Sulu's stammering voice sounded: "You, you, you are the one...."

"Have you seen me?" Jian Jian asked.

Su Hui glanced at Huo Mingzhu, and seeing her looking outside, she shook her head and said, "Uh, no, no." But she was thinking in her heart why the Queen Mother would bring this dancer from the Western Regions with her.

Huo Mingzhu couldn't hear what Sulu was thinking in her heart. Looking at the beautiful scenery outside the window, she remembered that she had been to the Western Regions in her previous life, and had seen the local customs and customs there. However, the last time she was looking for medicine, she naturally didn't stop to watch it too much. Now it's even a treasure hunt, and it's also a hurry.

However, this mood is completely different. Although it is not for the same man, it is all done with love. In the last life, I was anxious and eager, but in this life, I am much more peaceful. Maybe it is the difference between someone and no one around me Bar.

"Queen Mother, take a break and drink some water." Huo Mingzhu was thinking, the carriage had already stopped, and Su Lan handed Huo Mingzhu a sheepskin water bag, which contained clean fresh water.

Baili Jingqi raised the curtain of the car, and said to Huo Mingzhu, "Ah Jin, do you want to come out and have a look? The scenery here is very nice." Huo Mingzhu heard this, smiled and nodded, and handed Baili Jingqi his hand to let him He got out of the carriage.

Su Hui was so startled that she dropped the sheepskin bag in her hand, and stared blankly at Huo Mingzhu's leaving back with her mouth open.

All the way, Jian Jian could see that this girl had no schemes, so he said with a smile, "You look so funny."

Su Yu put her eyes on Jian Jian's extremely beautiful face and asked, "Really?"

"Naturally, as the queen mother's personal maid, she doesn't know anything about the relationship between the queen mother and the emperor." Jian Jian obviously accepted the unusual relationship between the two people.

Upon hearing this, Su Yu patted her chest and said, "It really scared me."

"What's so scary, the result between the two of them is inevitable, I knew it a long time ago." Jian Jian recalled the days when she knew Baili Jingqi, and when she knew Baili Jingqi, she had already guessed He realizes that the woman he loves must also have discernment, and the current result has confirmed this, so Jian Jian is not surprised at all.

Su Yu stayed in a daze for a long time before recovering.

Outside the carriage, Baili Jingqi and Huo Mingzhu stood side by side, looking down at the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers ahead.

The place where they were standing was on the edge of a cliff, and the mountain was not full of sand and gravel, but full of greenery. The mountains were full of azaleas, and the maple leaves in the mountains were as red as fire, embellished in this yellowing season. The same color is more fascinating than the green mountains all over the spring.

Maybe it's the mood.Huo Mingzhu thought.

Baili Jingqi also grinned, and looked at the mountains and rivers in front of him with a light smile. After a long time, he said, "Ah Jin, I thought about it a long time ago. If one day, I can travel hand in hand with you to visit the great rivers and mountains of Dayong. What a beauty."

"A long time ago?" Huo Mingzhu didn't miss the key point in Baili Jingqi's words.

"Of course it was a long time ago. As I said, Ah Jin has long been deeply ingrained in my heart." Baili Jingqi grabbed Huo Mingzhu's hand into his own.

Huo Mingzhu suddenly wanted to break the casserole, she slightly raised her head and looked at Baili Jingqi and asked, "It's been a long time, when I first returned to Beijing?"

After Huo Mingzhu asked, he tried hard to recall what Baili Jingqi looked like at that time, but he could only think of the sickly young man under the cloak. Apart from that, he had no more memories, could it be , is that time?
When Baili Jingqi heard the words, he just smiled lightly and remained silent.

Huo Mingzhu frowned, and asked in doubt: "Isn't it right? That's in that temple?" Baili Jingqi said a lot that day, as if he wanted to finish talking for a lifetime. , I am afraid it will be at that time.

Baili Jingqi still smiled and said nothing, Huo Mingzhu suddenly lost interest: "It doesn't matter if you don't say it, it's not important anyway." Saying so, but the displeasure on that delicate face is obvious.

Baili Jingqi looked at Huo Mingzhu lovingly, and said with a smile, "Ajin, are you angry?"

"Why should I be angry?" Huo Mingzhu said angrily.

After the two of them left the palace, they were called you and me, but it had a special feeling, as if something between the two of them disappeared with these names.

Baili Jingqi smiled and said, "Of course it's to blame and I won't tell you directly."

"When you want to say it, you will naturally say it." Huo Mingzhu withdrew her hand, turned and walked towards the carriage, but after turning around, the smile on the corner of her mouth was so obvious.

She thought to herself, it's no wonder Huo Huaiyu likes to act like a spoiled child so much. It turns out that a small temper that is tolerated by others is so carefree.

Baili Jingqi followed, and said behind Huo Mingzhu: "Ah Jin looks so good, I just want to turn the carriage around, go back to the palace, and immediately abolish the queen mother and establish another queen."

Huo Mingzhu turned her head and stared at Baili Jingqi.

Baili Jingqi came up at this time, lowered his head and said to Huo Mingzhu: "However, I know that you will definitely annoy me if you do this, so I'm just talking. As for how I put you in my heart, Bao Treasure I have it, and as a celebration, I will tell you."

"Say it or not." Huo Mingzhu hurriedly got into the carriage with a smile on his face.

Su Hui stared dumbfoundedly at the Huo Mingzhu with affectionate brows. She had never seen such a Huo Mingzhu before. It turned out that this was Huo Mingzhu's happy appearance.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Huo Mingzhu looked at Suhui.

Sulu said: "The empress dowager, you, that, the emperor...you..."

"When you are away from home, the Empress Dowager calls you, and you can no longer use it." In order to avoid trouble, this is a necessary means.

Only then did Su Hui realize that they were going on an adventure, so she hurriedly said, "Yes, Miss."

"Hehe, the emperor asked us to call him the master, and this one is the madam." Jian Jian explained with a smile on the side.

When Huo Mingzhu heard this, she immediately blushed, looked at Jian Jian's face that was so beautiful that it could startle ghosts and gods, and said: "What is it, Mrs. Jian Jian is a princess of a country, about the same age as me, and can also be called by her name directly. "

"Now that I was rescued by the master, I am naturally Dayong's servant girl. Therefore, whatever the master tells me to call me, I will naturally be called, ma'am." Jian Jian looked at Huo Mingzhu with a bright smile as if on purpose.

Huo Mingzhu was already ashamed, but now that Jian Jian said this, she was at a loss for words, not at all the eloquent Huo Mingzhu in the past, just like ordinary girls falling in love, blushing and shy.

But for this matter, there was a conversation outside, and Fang Tieyi was asking for instructions on whether to continue on his way: "Master, I have rested for a while, and the sun is about to set in an hour. Is it like in the past, before the sun sets, find Stay at the inn."

"Hurry up."

"Yes." Fang Tieyi said.

Then I heard Baili Jingqi say: "Ajin, sit down, let's continue on our way." This tone was no different from his own wife's, so it sounds like Baili Jingqi is not so fierce, It seemed that someone else had imprisoned her in the past.

But Huo Mingzhu knew very well that at that time, Baili Jingqi was afraid that she was really angry, so she would treat her so violently. Since the two of them had a heart-to-heart relationship, what Baili Jingqi did was remarkable. This point is not inferior to Baili Zonglu who loves her the most.
