Midnight Forced Marriage

Chapter 218 Ready to set off
"Empress, what are you talking about?" Seeing me talking to myself, Ah Yue couldn't help pricking up her ears.

"It's nothing." I was a little discouraged, and Ah Yue also started yawning, "Are you tired?"

"Sleepy." Ah Yue is generous, a servant is so casual, it shows how much the master doted on him back then, if I were a woman, I could write a Cinderella romance novel.

"Sleep if you're sleepy, I'll tell your master that I've seen you." After I finished speaking, I said seriously, "I hope you're not lying."

When Ah Yue heard this, she raised her hand and swore to express her determination, "Ah Yue has no half-hearted attitude towards the master and the queen, otherwise"

"Okay, okay, okay!" I gestured to him, regardless of whether he, a kid from 500 years ago, could understand it or not, I forcibly lifted the quilt and called him, his head was almost pressed by me The one on the pillow said, "Your master knows that you are very good and loyal. My wife is almost jealous of you! Go to sleep."

Taking advantage of the opportunity, I also popped out an invisible spell, pushing out the hypnotic spell that Chu Yue cast on himself just now.In just a moment, Ah Yue fell into a deep sleep.

I looked at the same sleeping face, the expression has gradually returned to the solemn and indifferent expression before, yes, my Chu Yue is back.But he was asleep and I didn't want to wake him up.

I pulled the quilt, lay on the pillow, and looked at him.We have experienced too many complicated and inexplicable sorrows imposed on us.Suddenly I thought, it would be nice to just fall asleep for the rest of my life and watch, it's not bad to be old forever.As for the hole in my heart, or the ripples that arise every time I think of it, the face that changes suddenly is gradually blurred.There is a saying that it is better to take pity on the people in front of you if you are full of rivers and mountains and empty thoughts!
I don't know how long it took, but the familiar feeling returned, and I woke up naturally in the warm sun again.What I heard in my ears was the chirping of birds, and what I smelled in my nose was... the smell of boiling fish soup...

Ghost month?

I opened my eyes suddenly, but there was no one next to my pillow.Turned over to get up, unzipped the zipper, climbed out of the tent, and looked around with one head exposed.The sun was still dazzling, and the smell of fish soup was stronger, but it didn't smell the same.

"woke up?"

"Scared?" Chu Yue, who was becoming more and more elusive, appeared beside the tent. I was stunned, and I hadn't recovered, "You scared me."

"I'm sorry, sorry, my fault!" He laughed, obviously he didn't feel that something was wrong, but it was very funny. "Get up, wash your face, and eat!"

I suspected for a moment that it was another one, and blurted out, "Who are you?"

Chu Yue was stunned for a moment, then his expression turned back, and he squatted down, but he was still much taller than me. He looked at me with a serious expression, "Chi'er, it's me, your husband."

"You..." I frowned, not quite believing, "You..."

"Did you see Ah Yue last night?"

I nodded mechanically subconsciously.

"Talk to me later, get up first." He didn't repeatedly refute and prove himself, but just let me accept everything slowly, and I felt at ease instantly.Perhaps only my husband Chu Yue can give me such a sense of security and freedom at the same time.

When I came outside, I started to feel that the sky is the cover and the ground is the hut. This is a rare place where the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, which is different from the small northern villages like Yinyang Village.Chu Yuezai had already placed all the meals on the table, including the bowl of fish soup.

"Come on, try it first."

"Okay." I drank it for more than ten days, and I was used to it. I didn't take it seriously. I took the bowl and blew it twice and drank it without using a spoon. "Pfft!"

"What's the matter?" Chu Yue saw me spit out a mouthful of soup, and hurried to take care of me.

"Too...too fishy and salty..." I have never drank such a bad drink, and it is more and more than the previous ten days. "You, are you here to get revenge on me?"

"Eh?" Chu Yue was startled when he heard the words, with shame on his face, "It's me, I made the soup, it's not Ayue, you...you think it's delicious a few days ago, it may be Guiyue's face I can't help cooking, and secretly manipulated me to make it, but I temporarily sealed them all last night, so I made this bowl of soup."

After Chu Yue explained, he paused, and said in a whisper, "Is it really bad?"

Tears came down from my eyes, and I held up the bowl, "Taste it." I really didn't want to hurt his kindness, but I couldn't hold it back, so since I couldn't hold it back, it's better to be honest.

"puff"

Chu Yue took a sip and vomited, "I thought the fish smelled too fishy, ​​so I added more salt to remove the taste. I didn't expect to add too much, and I added several vegetables. I didn't expect one of them to be bitter..."

"It's okay, it's okay, there are other dishes and rice." I comforted him, sat down on the table and filled the rice.Although the taste is not very good, it is at least edible. "You come too."

"Okay." Chu Yue was a little embarrassed, sat at the front of the table with a bowl, and did not speak.

Instead, I was even more embarrassed, "Chu Yue, I... As a wife, I should be responsible for these things and housework. Now that you have been tired of doing it for more than ten days, I am too lazy to sleep until the sun is up. It was my fault." , don't think too much about it."

Chu Yue smiled lightly when he heard the words, "Although I am also a hereditary prince in Chu Kingdom, I have never favored sons over daughters. You should also know from the king's attitude towards the queen's free choice of life. In fact, women have a higher status. Therefore, Chu In the country, there are not a few men who are in charge of the house and women who are in charge of the house, and even quite a few men are in charge of both the house and the house, and the housewife is only enjoying the provision and raising children at home."

"That's it." I was a little yearning after hearing this, "It would be great if I met you 600 years earlier, and we can live a good life in Chu."

After I finish speaking, I feel a little regretful, Chu State is dead, so what about the best social system?
I don't want Chu Yue to smile more briskly when he heard the words, "Well said, we will set off after eating."

"what?"

Chu Yue put down the bowl and chopsticks, and said seriously, "I thought about it, Ah Yue must not be able to provide any effective clues, after all, he is trapped in the city, Leng Yue and the others know how important he is to me, and they almost imprison him like a hostage. So it is impossible for him to know what happened after I left the city. If I go out of the city alone, the Wuxiang Kingdom is the most likely to give me the answer. But the Wuxiang Kingdom has also perished, so apart from other insiders, my only possibility It’s just to get back the memory.”

I nodded to express my approval, "Then we..."

"Chi'er, you may not know. Our state of Chu and the state of Qi are in the same direction, and they are almost the same, but the state of Qi is a dynasty that was established later." Chu Yue said, "Let's take a rest for a while, tear down the tent and set off Go find your master and the others. If you catch up with them, you will be able to meet Guizhi, and maybe he can give me the answer."
