Chapter 422 Vest
Chapter 422 Vest
"Your subordinate greets the Crown Prince and the Marquis!" The man in black who came over knelt on the ground. Although his tone was flat, it was respectful enough!
After confirming that it was someone who came to pick them up, Shu Xiaoxiao immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, she didn't have to be alone with her senior brother. If she continued to be alone with him, her true colors would be exposed. Her senior brother had been too enthusiastic these days and she could hardly handle it.
Hearing his junior sister's sigh of relief, Yun Qinghan glanced at her meaningfully. It was inconvenient to do anything in the wild, so it was time to go back.
Upon learning that the Second Prince had been imprisoned for life and all the remnants of the previous dynasty had been arrested, Yun Qinghan nodded. This was all within his expectations.
Since the Second Prince used the resources of the previous dynasty, he naturally had to offer conditions that satisfied others. It was heard that the Second Prince killed some leader of the previous dynasty, promoted a greedy and timid prince, and placed him in Kyoto by his side. He lived a comfortable life. The power of the previous dynasty was also thoroughly utilized by the Second Prince, and basically all of them were his people.
No wonder there was no news about what the Second Prince did before, but it is of no use now. Fortunately, he is only imprisoned in his own mansion. Shu Xiaoxiao said that it was not bad. At least he had enough food and clothes, and he could do anything. He just lost his freedom. But for the Second Prince now, it probably didn't matter where he was.
However, with the example of the Second Prince, the other princes should be more cautious, at least they should be more restrained during this period of time.
Shu Xiaoxiao stopped at the foot of the city wall and looked at the newly renovated city wall, the ground, and the brand new buildings inside. Although they were all new, the ancient atmosphere still came to her face, without any sense of incongruity. It was unlike modern times. Even if some scenic spots are imitations of ancient buildings, they still don't feel like that, and always have a bit of modern atmosphere.
Huo Feng, Zhenzhu and others were already waiting at the city gate. With Yun Qinghan and Shu Xiaoxiao dragging people with them, Huo Feng and his friends were naturally relaxed. They originally wanted to go to support their master, but then they received news asking them to return to Kyoto first.
They had no choice but to return to Kyoto even though they were worried. Although the Second Prince was trapped, they were worried because their master hadn't returned. They had been waiting at the city gate. Now that their master had finally returned, they were relieved.
After all, it was not possible for the master to bring people and guards back. During this period, they couldn't sleep well at night thinking of the master who hadn't come back yet! After all, if something happened to the master, ten lives would not be enough for them to accompany him. Now that the master is back, they can close their eyes and sleep at night.
Although they have returned, Yun Qinghan needs to go back to the palace to report. Shu Xiaoxiao wants to go back and wash her whole body quickly. After going on a long journey, she always feels covered in dust. If she doesn't wash, she always feels very tired. Then she has to tell her family about her and her senior brother.
Yun Qinghan looked at his junior brother who was in a hurry to go back, but did not stop him. He could only give Shu Xiaoxiao a look that they both understood, and then he entered the palace exhausted.
Shu Xiaoxiao looked at the bustling streets and suddenly felt that she missed this place very much.
She stretched and said lightly, "Pearl, let's go home!"
After a thorough cleansing by Pearl, and a thorough body massage with various balms and essential oils, I felt like I was coming back to life.
Looking at her mother who had been nagging beside her and her sisters-in-law who looked concerned, Shu Xiaoxiao swallowed and didn't know how to start the conversation for a moment. She had no experience in confessing her love affair!
"Mom, I see Xiaoxiao has lost a lot of weight. We need to eat more food from now on." Sister-in-law Zhou Wenxiu looked at Shu Xiaoxiao's collapsed body with a face full of pity.
"Yes, we need to nourish ourselves well. I see that Xiaoxiao's little face has become thinner. I just got some high-quality bird's nests and I'll have someone send them over later! It will definitely be effective if Xiaoxiao eats a little every day," said the second sister-in-law Zhao Yiyi, very generously.
"She ran away on her own, so she should suffer!" Ye Xue Ning said this, but her eyes were always staring at people, and it was obvious that she was worried that something was wrong with Shu Xiaoxiao.
The mother-in-law, daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law were so happy when they learned that Shu Xiaoxiao had returned. They were waiting in the yard when Shu Xiaoxiao was taking a bath. After Shu Xiaoxiao came out, she didn't even sit on the stool. She directly asked someone to bring out her recliner. And yet they still wanted to let their daughter suffer?
No one present believed it.
Shu Xiaoxiao touched her face and felt that she had indeed lost some weight. Although the food was good along the way, she had been rushing all the time, which must have consumed her physical strength, so it was normal to lose some weight.
In fact, it doesn’t matter whether you are thin or not. After all, for girls, as long as they are not just skin and bones, pursuing weight loss is a lifelong career.
What made her sad was that after all the hard work and sleeping in the open air along the way, she felt her skin had become much rougher. Although it was good to have some space along the way, at least she wouldn't starve, it was gone when she got a little more refined.
Just like washing, she had already used up all her strength and sweet words to avoid her senior brother and wash alone. How could she have time to take care of her skin? You know, when Zhenzhu was around, she took care of her skin even to the last inch of her hair.
With her senior brother around during the whole journey, she didn't even dare to use any perfume. After all, it was okay for a grown man to be naturally handsome, but Shu Xiaoxiao couldn't stand putting on makeup in front of another person. Moreover, she was used to being served by Zhenzhu, and it was too delicate for her to complete the task alone.
So along the way, I basically just washed it simply with soap, and at most applied some unscented ointment on my face, but I didn't dare to be too careful.
My face and hands feel a lot rougher now.
"Mom, sister-in-law, do you feel any changes in me?" Shu Xiaoxiao touched her moist face with a worried look on her face.
Everyone loves beauty. She is particularly satisfied with her appearance, especially since she has been taking good care of herself. Her skin is as white as a peeled egg and is not inferior to that of her two or three-year-old nephew. Although she doesn't say it usually, she feels sorry for her face.
She would be really sad if her skin became rough.
"She lost weight?" Zhou Wenxiu asked tentatively. She shouldn't have been injured. After all, when Xiaoxiao just came back, her mother-in-law checked her personally. So she could only have lost weight along the way?
Shu Xiaoxiao shook her head and looked at her second sister-in-law again.
Zhao Yiyi:................
I looked her up and down carefully. She looked like a lotus emerging from the water. Even in men's clothes, she was still very beautiful. When she looked at you expectantly, it made my heart melt.
Hesitantly said, "Become more beautiful?"
Could it be that the water outside is more nourishing?
Shu Xiaoxiao shook her head with a heavier expression.
Ye Xue Ning patted her lightly and said unhappily, "Stop being weird. Tell me what happened."
