Empress: The Old Emperor's Way to Pursue His Wife

Chapter 105 Shaking (1)

On the street full of people coming and going, the cries of peddlers mixed with all kinds of chaotic voices rang in Mo Yanxiao's ears non-stop.

The wheels of the car were making a rattling sound. Mo Yanxiao closed his eyes to rest for a while, but he couldn't calm down. He simply opened his eyes and lifted the curtain to look at the cultural scenery outside the car.

A playful red dress came into view, and that delicate smile was as bright as a red plum shining in the winter sun, bright and moving.

His eyes flickered for a while, as if he had returned to the noisy afternoon when he was riding a tall horse, sitting and looking at the crowd, but that figure was particularly eye-catching and... piercing into the heart...

"Hey, be careful."

The crisp voice was mixed with the roaring noise of the crowd, it was so different, but Mo Yanxiao didn't have the thought at this moment to find out who this person was, and his skinny hands tightly grabbed the sides of the carriage. Fate, I will explain it here.

The swaying carriage became more and more bumpy, and the horse neighed in fright, overshadowing the sound.

Mo Yanxiao's whole body swayed from side to side with the shaking of the carriage, and his skinny hands gradually lost strength. Perhaps, the hour came early, and his life should die.

Gradually loosening his palms, Mo Yanxiao slowly closed his eyes, with only one thought in his mind... huh?No pain, no...

Opening his eyes, a faint light pierced into his eyes, Mo Yanxiao looked around blankly, the carriage had already recovered and the horse had no sound.

A light-white limp limb lifted the car curtain abruptly, and a burst of blinding light came in, and Mo Yanxiao raised his hand to block his uncomfortable eyes.

The visitor was furious: "I said you are a master, you can't take good care of your servants, how can you doze off when driving a carriage, almost..."

The car curtain was lifted, and the cursing stopped abruptly.

The bright red figure swayed in the sun, causing a burst of halo, and Mo Yanxiao couldn't help whispering, "Little girl."

"Ah, um." The girl in red lowered her eyes shyly, her immature face of fourteen or fifteen years old was imprinted with a faint pink, which was instantly green and beautiful.

Seeing the face of the person in front of him clearly, Mo Yanxiao looked embarrassed: "Uh... What the girl taught me is that I will teach you a lesson when I go back. So, girl, can you?"

This girl is standing in front of this car, how is he going to move on.

The girl in red turned over and jumped into the carriage, and said playfully: "May I have something? You can ask me directly if you want to ask me my name or my age, and Yun Zhu will know everything. Where are you, how many parents, siblings, and whether they are married? This big brother, tell me, what do you want to know?"

Mo Yanxiao was used to seeing all kinds of people with this fiery enthusiasm, but he still couldn't stand it, so he could only smile awkwardly.

Before Mo Yanxiao said a word, the girl poured out her name and identity all at once.

Qiu Yunzhu, [-] years old, is from Dongzhou County. She has no parents in her family, and only her eldest brother lives with her.

Qiu Yunzhu sat in the carriage and chattered non-stop. Whenever Mo Yanxiao wanted to say something to drive him away, this girl was lucky, she pretended she didn't hear her at all, and continued talking to herself.

Mo Yanxiao had no choice but to let his servants continue to drive forward. Besides, there were not many Qiu surnames in Dongzhou, and the most well-known one was Qiu Yuwei, the princess of the state.

If he remembers correctly, Qiu Yuwei also has no father and no mother, only a younger sister, who is about the same age as this girl, and has a girl who goes against the world and ordinary people by nature.

If there is no mistake, it is the girl in front of her who is talking nonsense.

After the carriage drove all the way, Qiu Yunzhu talked about the customs and customs that he saw along the way in Beijing, what habits would a hen lay eggs if it was so small, what taboos were there in weddings and funerals in that place, and how big it was that corrupt official was in the court again. Under Mo Xiangye's rule, his home was ransacked and his family was wiped out.

Qiu Yunzhu would applaud and applaud every time he talked about it. The words along the way were far more exciting than those of the person who changed his career and relied on storytelling to beg for food.

Mo Yanxiao saw that when Qiu Yunzhu said the word "Mo Xiangye", a pair of round eyes would sparkle, and suddenly regretted his decision very much.

He, maybe he shouldn't have allowed her to do this, but it was her 'like this' that made Mo Yanxiao reluctant to let go.

This 'like this' made him see the person who pointed at him and gave orders, but was treated indifferently by himself, making him coquettish and angry.

This 'like this' made him see that little girl with a little master on the left and a little master on the right, who kept pestering herself to play with you to relieve boredom.

This 'so' made him see the guy who tugged on his sleeve and said 'I like you'...

"I like you."

Mo Yanxiao smiled slightly, and immediately realized that the voice was so close to his ears and real, and...

Qiu Yunzhu squeezed to Mo Yanxiao's side, put his hands on his arms without any twist, and stuck his whole body against his thin body.

"What's your name? Where are you from? How many people are there in the family? Have you ever been married? Uh..." Qiu Yunzhu frowned in distress, and murmured: "Look at you, you must be quite old at this age. Marrying a wife and taking concubines must be indispensable."

"Cough cough...cough cough..." Mo Yanxiao coughed repeatedly after realizing that "I like you" came from Qiu Yunzhu's mouth.

However, this girl's eyesight is really... Hearing Qiu Yunzhu's muttering to herself, Mo Yanxiao agreed very much and nodded with great satisfaction.

Heart call: Yes, yes, yes, I am not young, you beautiful girl, don't worry about my dying old bones.

As if hearing Mo Yanxiao's silent call, Qiu Yunzhu still hugged his arm with great interest, and even pressed her whole head against Mo Yanxiao's shoulder.

"But it doesn't matter, I don't care, if you are already married, I will be your concubine, if you have no shortage of concubines, I will serve as your slave."

This is not bad, if Qiu Yunzhu is allowed to continue, he will have to say something shocking and regretful.

Mo Yanxiao held back his chest tight cough, and blurted out: "Miss Qiu, whether a man or a woman can kiss each other, please respect yourself."

"But I'm your unmarried wife...concubine?...servant?...teacher?..."

Mo Yan Xiao suppressed, died.

He must have had an illusion, so that he felt that she was like her back then. This hot and straightforward personality was even better than her.

There is a gentle breeze, and the courtyard is as deep as an ink painting. In a small pavilion near the lake, a small couch is placed in a shaded place near an ancient tree. painting.

Following the silent guidance of the maid, Mo Yanxiao came to the only corridor leading to the small pavilion near the lake, but the maid curtseyed and retreated.

Looking at the figure in the gazebo, Mo Yanxiao subconsciously stood on tiptoe and approached quietly.

Seeing that Xiao Yi was still asleep, Mo Yanxiao couldn't bear to call out, so he stood in the gazebo and stared silently.

In the small pavilion near the lake, the coolness of the lake water brought by the breeze is the best comfort for normal people, but it is the key to Mo Yanxiao's weakening body.

The chest was barely suppressed, and there was a twitch in the chest... "Cough cough..." The coughing sound became louder, and the person lying on the small couch didn't notice anything.

"Ahem...Queen...cough..." Mo Yanxiao whispered a few times, but Xiao Yi did not wake up.

Mo Yanxiaofu took a few steps forward and called twice, but Xiao Yi was still asleep.

According to Xiao Yi's martial arts body and the prudence she has cultivated for many years outside, this is really wrong. Could it be that she was seriously injured or poisoned on that mountain.

Worrying in his heart, Mo Yanxiao didn't care about the etiquette between men and women, so he stepped forward and squatted in front of the couch, stretching out his hand to gently shake Xiao Yi.

"Queen... little..."

Xiao Yi opened her water-colored eyes, and the fresh breeze blew a burst of plum fragrance into her nostrils, as well as the facial features of the person in front of her, it seemed that she was suppressing a deep sadness that could not be solved.

"Little... Master." The delicate lips parted slightly, and the whisper was barely audible.

Mo Yanxiao suppressed the expression in his eyebrows, stood up and cupped his fists and said, "Empress Empress, my minister kowtowed to Empress Empress."

Xiao Yi lay on the couch and looked up at Mo Yanxiao coldly, um, she is the Empress of Chu, the empress Xiao that the common people often say.Just now, he definitely wanted to call himself Empress Xiao.

Lifting the thin quilt on the girdle, Xiao Yi sat upright, "Mr. Mo doesn't need to be polite, please sit down quickly."

Words and deeds should be the demeanor of the mother of a country, just because of adding a strangeness.

Mo Yanxiao remained silent.

Xiao Yi laughed: "Master Mo, why are you so dazed? Sit down quickly. I heard from the imperial doctor that your health is getting worse these days. Standing for a long time is bound to be bad. Sit down quickly."

The corners of his pale mouth curled up slightly, Mo Yanxiao chose a seat not too far away and sat down, and replied: "Your Majesty also knows about my sick body, there is no serious problem, but your Majesty, you and the Emperor went up the mountain, you two?"

"We're fine, we're all back here."

"But just now you..."

"Just now? It's just that I've been tired and haven't slept well in the past few days, so I snooze on." Xiao Yi felt tired, and lay down on the small couch with a smile.

"It's you, Master Mo. The emperor and I thought that you were busy for the court these days and you were exhausted, so we didn't send anyone to bother you. I didn't expect you to come, Master Mo."

Mo Yanxiao smiled and said nothing, sometimes he didn't want to say it, but he couldn't.

He couldn't say that he endured the bumps of the carriage and hurried into the palace just to witness it with his own eyes and make sure that Xiao Yi was in good health.

Mo Yanxiao's silence made Xiao Yi a little embarrassed.

This is the first time she and him have met since she got married.

It's just that he is still him, the boy who was reading under the tree back then, but even the years have never left too many traces on his face.

And she is no longer the little girl she was back then.

Mo Yanxiao thought for a while and said, "I am just worried about the emperor and queen."

"It's my fault for making Master Mo worry, Mr. Mo, I want to thank you for your hard work these days."
