Seeing her back stiff, Xiao Sui frowned: "What are you asking?"

It was the hot summer in the Central Plains, but the dusk in the northern border was very cold. The water in the pond was a little cold. The woman's fingertips trembled slightly, and the slender knuckles were covered with a frozen red collar.

She slowly put down her unwrung clothes, stood up and wiped her hands on her apron.

Just when Xiao Sui thought she was going to turn around to answer the question, she suddenly ran away.

Xiao Sui's eyes sterned.

Before he could think, he subconsciously urged the horse to chase him.

There are many trees in the mountain village and the ground is uneven.

Xiao Sui watched her disappear at the corner of the village, and felt that the woman was extremely strange. He frowned and simply dismounted and searched for her.

Apart from one door, the light and shadow in the room are dim.

The girl leaned behind the door, listened to the sound of military boots gradually moving away, and slowly lowered her eyelashes.

She reached out and gently pulled off the floral turban covering her hair.

The long hair poured down, but it was a snow-white sieve that was not in line with the age.

She walked to the corner, added two pieces of charcoal to the stove, and stirred the brown medicinal juice from the pottery jar. The warm medicinal juice emitted a strange smell, and it was already disgustingly bitter without taking a sip.

The girl took a small bowl to hold the medicine juice.

When she was in Chang'an, she wanted to lift the curse for Xiao Sui. She thought that such a ritual would require sacrifice to the God of Fire. Unexpectedly, the ceremony ended, and she was just burned out of her dress and was still alive, but she grew older by dozens of years overnight.

She didn't want Xiao Sui to see her getting old.

With her superb light skills, she secretly ran out of the palace and returned to her hometown. According to the prescriptions recorded in the clan, her appearance and skin have recovered and young, but her hair has not yet turned black.

She originally planned to take the medicine for another half month, and when she was completely cured, she would go to find Xiao Sui's.

But who would have thought that he actually came to the door...

She frowned slightly and mustered up the courage to drink half a bowl of medicine.

The medicine was bitter to the liver and gallbladder. She threw down the medicine bowl, covered her neck with one hand, lay on the table and retching desperately, choking so hard that tears came out.

When I was feeling uncomfortable, someone handed me a bowl of water.

Huo Tingyu looked at the hand with clear joints and was slightly stunned.

She slowly raised her head.

Xiao Sui broke in at some point, squatted beside her, gently stroked her back with one hand, and was looking at her firmly.

Huo Tingyu's pupils shrank and he was so scared that he fell to the ground.

She quickly raised her sleeve to cover half of her little face: "You...you recognized the wrong person!"

She wanted to retreat, but Xiao Sui tucked her arm hard and pulled her into her arms.

He stroked her white hair. Although his expression was faint on his face, the expression in his eyes was gentle: "I haven't said who you are yet, how did you know that I recognized the wrong person?"

Huo Tingyu was forced to lie in his arms, like a frightened little beast, so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do.

Xiao Sui held up her little face.

His eyes were cold and dark. I thought he wanted to see through this girl who was as hard to catch as a swimming fish. After half a cup of tea, it seemed that he had not seen enough.

After a while, his Adam's apple moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just sighed and hugged her in his arms: "Huo Tingyu, I've been sad for a long time after you left."

Huo Tingyu's little face was tense, and his round pupils were flickering with doubts.

She had almost killed Xiao Sui, and did Xiao Sui not blame her at all?

Before she could figure it out, Xiao Sui had already stood up and packed up a small bag for her in a few seconds: "Follow me to return to Wuxiangcheng."

Huo Tingyu quickly covered his hair and jumped back: "I look like this-"

"What's the look?" Xiao Sui glanced at her seriously, as if she couldn't see her white hair, and her posture was very strong. "There is nothing wrong with being thinner except for being thinner."

Huo Tingyu pursed his lips.

Somehow, a little joy came from my heart that had always been introverted and inferior.

While she was still struggling, a follower hurriedly stepped into the threshold, holding a carrier pigeon in his hand: "Master, the flying pigeon from Chang'an passes the letter!"

Xiao followed the pigeon's legs and untied the letter.

It was a letter from the second emperor brother. The letter did not explain the reason, but he just asked him to imprison Poinsettia immediately at all costs.

Huo Tingyu stood on tiptoe and wanted to read the letter: "What's wrong?"

Xiao Sui thought for a long time and quickly realized what was going on.

He tightened his letter: "I was trapped in the plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain, Nan Baoyi, there is danger!"

Although Huo Tingyu couldn't understand, he was very worried about Nan Baoyi.

She said, "Then, let's go and help Sister Nan quickly?"

Xiao Sui looked at her.

She was actually willing to leave Huai Village with him...

Seeing his gaze, Huo Tingyu turned his face slightly red and turned away unnaturally: "Don't think about it, I didn't leave for you... I had thought of killing Sister Nan, but she was very nice to me. I owe her favors. I am the most familiar with the terrain of the border line, so it's right for you to bring me."

Xiao Sui smiled.

He quietly held Huo Tingyu's little hand and walked out of the house.

When Huo Tingyu raised his heart, he felt that his palms instantly became hot.

She wanted to break away from Xiao Sui's hand, but found that it was just futile.

She glanced at Xiao Suitan Ruofengyue's side face and whispered: "Look at a gentleman who practices Buddhism and Taoism, but he is serious about bullying the little girl..."

Xiao Sui bent his lips without any trace, holding her hand and refused to let go.

...

When Xiao Sui returned to Wuxiang City with Huo Tingyu, Gu Chongshan's frame had already arrived at Wang Ting.

As soon as he drove into the city, the confidant guard hurried over and reported: "Master, Your Majesty can no longer hold on, he is already critically ill!"

Nan Baoyi has recovered as before. Hearing this, his face turned pale slightly.

She looked at Gu Chongshan.

Jiu Qiansui, who had always been indifferent to his emotions, suddenly tightened his hands holding the carriage door frame, his joints were so white that they were very white, his jaw lines were tight, and his eyes were cold and dark, like an invisible abyss.

He wanted to say something, but his thin lips couldn't help but tremble slightly.

He has never been so ruthless.

Nan Baoyi thought about his brotherly relationship with Gu Yu for so many years, and understood his feelings very well, and ordered him: "Go to the palace immediately."

Qinfeng quickly said yes.

The carriage galloped towards the palace.

Gu Chongshan lowered his head, his face covered with his hands, and he couldn't see clearly.

Nan Baoyi poured him a cup of hot tea: "Regent?"

Gu Chongshan's face was still buried in his palm.

Nan Baoyi's eyes fell on Gu Chongshan's palm. His hands trembled. He was obviously a pair of iron-blooded hands holding power, but at this time he seemed to be fragile and could no longer hold anything.

There was no courage from that, Nan Baoyi suddenly held Gu Chongshan's hand.

His hands were cold and bone-bone.

Nan Baoyi tried his best to help him, and comforted him in his surprised and gloomy eyes: "I wish you good fortune every year and good luck in everything."

The girl's hands are delicate and boneless, not only soft, but also warm and clean.

Since he became a proton at a young age, no one has ever held his hand again.

She didn't even think he was dirty...

Gu Chongshan's eyes turned red a little again, and he quietly pulled his hand back: "No need to do this."

Nan Baoyi smiled and said, "If you are willing to speak, that would be better."

Seeing that the palace was getting closer and closer, Nan Baoyi remembered Nan Yan's fake imperial heir and said softly: "If I am still alive today, it is not the time when you are sad. My sister has always been profit-oriented and ambitious. Regent, you have to be careful of her."
