Empress Dowager Empress Dowager

Chapter 33
"Miss, are you better?" After resting with Huo Mingzhu in the back garden for a while, she dared to say that she was tired to the guests in front of her. Seeing rashes on her hands and neck, Su Wei was very distressed. He blamed her: "Miss, why are you so stubborn? It's fine if you can't drink, but you have to show off in front of the Ninth Prince! The Ninth Prince is the same, please tell Miss what kind of wine you drink!"

Although she was itchy all over, fortunately Huo Mingzhu didn't have a rash on her face. She was sitting by the water bridge, listening to Su Hui's words, still laughing: "Why don't you favor the wise and mighty Ninth Prince now?"

Su Hui snorted, continued to apply the ointment on Huo Mingzhu, held her hand and gently applied it: "Anyway, Miss, you and the Ninth Prince are both at fault. , what an enemy!"

Huo Mingzhu was extremely helpless, and pointed at Sulu's brows with her finger: "You girl can be said to live after death, but tomorrow I will let you go and let you become a matchmaker, maybe your business will prosper."

Su Hui laughed loudly: "If I become a matchmaker between the young lady and the Ninth Prince, then I will have a golden signboard. Are you afraid that the business will not prosper?"

Huo Mingzhu couldn't help laughing at Su Ling's heartlessness, but she couldn't help laughing.

Yes, when she was toasting just now, she did have a way to make Baili Zonglu take back her order.It is common for the daughter in the boudoir not to drink at all, if she does not drink, Baili Zonglu will definitely not embarrass her in front of her uncle and the whole Huo family.

But at that moment, Huo Mingzhu looked at Baili Zonglu, but recalled that when he was depressed, she had a drink with him against the moon to relieve his worries, but then he developed a rash all over his body, which was so itchy that he couldn't sleep.Baili Zonglu was very distressed and blamed himself so much that he refused to let her drink anymore. He even told her on the eve of the wedding that it doesn't matter if we don't drink our wedding wine, but we can replace wine with tea, it's the same...

At that time, which is not yet here, she not only failed to marry Baili Zonglu and drank the wine, but even her life was taken away by him.The most intolerable thing was that her wedding day was the sixth day of April, the birthday he had just spent with her.

Therefore, when Baili Zonglu came today, Huo Mingzhu couldn't pretend to be very grateful for him. The most important days in her memory became so painful and embarrassing because of Baili Zonglu's mixing.She can only toast him with wine, remind herself with the rash all over her body, don't forget the pain of the year, don't forget the vicious heart of the person in front of her!
"Miss Huo?"

Suddenly a voice sounded from the other side of the bridge, it was the one that Huo Mingzhu thought deeply and hated the most.

Su Hui then called out, and patted Huo Mingzhu lightly: "Miss, Nine, Nine Princes... are here."

"My lord." Su Hui came to her senses and greeted Baili Zonglu. Baili Zonglu raised her hand to avoid her courtesy.

Huo Mingzhu also stood up from the water bridge and silently blessed Baili Zonglu.

"I'm bothering you." Baili Zonglu came from the other side of the bridge, followed by those guards far behind.

His gaze was fixed on Huo Mingzhu, Huo Mingzhu frowned, and gently put down the part of her sleeves, but Baili Zonglu had already seen many red rashes on her tender lotus-root-like arms.Moreover, although Huo Mingzhu put down her sleeves, she couldn't cover her slender neck, which was also spotted and terrifying.

"Miss Huo is not good at drinking?" Baili Zonglu clenched the folding fan in his hand, but his voice was normal, without any special concern, just a normal question.

Sensing Baili Zonglu's gaze, listening to his question, Su Wei, who always only said good things for him, was a little unhappy, and regardless of whether she would offend the majestic general Wang, she whispered: "My lord, my miss I can't drink alcohol, and I will get a rash when I drink alcohol, and it will itch all over my body, which won't go away for a long time..."

This girl is very defensive, even though she argued with Huo Mingzhu just now, her good impression of Baili Zonglu has also faded a lot.Baili Zonglu also noticed this, he turned his head to look at Sulu, and said with a smile: "Sulu, I have something to say to your young lady, you should step back."

Su Hui thought, maybe the prince wants to apologize to the young lady in person, but she didn't dare to disobey the order, so she bowed and withdrew.

Baili Zonglu's bodyguards were also savvy, guarding from a distance, and did not disturb the two of them talking.

"Today, the king came to congratulate Ms. Huo on her joy. I wanted to smile at Miss Bohuo, but let Ms. Huo suffer like this. It really shouldn't be. Now even the girls around Ms. Huo have prejudice against me..." Baili Zonglu is tall and tall, standing in front of Huo Mingzhu like a mountain.

Huo Mingzhu smiled: "Your Majesty is worrying too much, it's Mingzhu's disrespect, she has never been drunk with water and wine, and she has to blame herself for this kind of ugliness."

Baili Zonglu has been watching Huo Mingzhu's face all the time, he still can't understand why Huo Mingzhu can be so calm, an ordinary boudoir daughter can't be calm when she looks at him.

More than calm and composed?
Judging from the reactions of Huo Mingzhu and the girl Sulu, she should know that drinking alcohol will cause rashes, but she still accepts his kindness. One drink is not enough, so drink another one, making him look like an aggressive tyrant in front of many guests.

Baili Zonglu took a deep breath, shook the folding fan in his hand, and took another step closer, his phoenix eyes fixed on her white jade neck: "When will this rash go away? This king ordered Imperial Physician Liu to come again? "

"Thank you, my lord, I don't need to bother the doctor, but it will disappear in half a day." Huo Mingzhu still had a smile on her face.

That smile was so glaring that it seemed to grow on her face, Baili Zonglu wanted to tear it off for her, he was not usually an irritable person, but when facing her, he felt uncomfortable as if he was pulling a mist.

Baili Zonglu followed her answer and asked: "Since Miss Huo knows that drinking is not allowed, why didn't she tell the king?"
