The princess of time travel is not stupid

Chapter 65

It snowed all night, and at dawn, Xia Mi counted the number of people, and it was less than four hundred.Her heart sank, and she felt that the snow floating on her face was attacking the bottom of her heart with incomparable heaviness.

"Your Highness, we should hurry on our way as soon as possible." Xia Zhong reminded in a low voice.

Xia Mi glanced at the person behind him, opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say?Are you grateful for their sacrifice?Oh, how ironic, there are still old and young people, so it is necessary to tell them the obligation of death so clearly?

"Your Highness, we have long ignored life and death, but the emperor, and you, are in danger to the world. Compared with tens of millions of people, we are not important." Xia Zhong took the lead and knelt down on one knee, and said to Xia Mi, asking She quickened her pace. "There can be no further delay."

Xia Mi took a deep breath, "Okay, get ready and speed up." After giving the order, she rode to the side of the empress's carriage, "Doctor, how is the empress's condition? We will speed up and return to Beijing later, we can bear it." ?”

Qing Wu raised the curtain, came out and said: "The emperor was sober for a while earlier, praised His Highness for being quick-witted and decisive, and said that everything will be according to His Highness's arrangements." Such rapid advances are all in line with Xia Mi's guess, and they really know After receiving the information from the empress, she couldn't wait... to conspire against her.

These forbidden troops are probably not enough.Qing Wu was not very sure in her heart, she could only pray for a safe journey.

Xia Mi nodded, "Auntie Lao and the imperial doctor will take good care of the Empress." She rode to the front and opened the way with Wu Cheng. So we gave up the dry food for everyone to work hard and eat while walking. Only at noon did we rest and rectify for a while, and the time was very short.

After repeating this, I went to Jinyang, a small town between Beizhou and Shangjing, "Your Highness, you should be able to reach Jinyang before evening. Do you want to rest overnight?" Wu Cheng asked.

The snow had stopped on the road, and Xia Mi was riding on the horse looking at the simple map, which was drawn by Wu Cheng temporarily. She turned to Wu Cheng and asked, "What do you mean by this dotted line?"

Wu Cheng: "Originally there was an official road there, but the road was narrow and long, and the winter was frozen and snowy, making it difficult to walk. After the new official road was built, it was gradually abandoned, and now few people care about it."

"Then let's go there." Xia Mi put away the map, reined in the reins, turned his head and explained to Wu Cheng: "I kept thinking on the way that Jinyang and Beizhou are not too far away, and there must be merchants who communicate with Beizhou. Even if you don’t know everything about Zhou, there must be gossip and gossip, why no one in Jinyang reported it?”

She pulled the leather felt, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised, "Who doesn't stare at the meat in other people's bowls? To be so generous, it's probably because he has already got a piece of the pie." She tightened her hands that were somewhat frozen in the gloves, This walk made her even more certain that the emperor could not just sit on the high chair and watch the people below quarrel endlessly.

Jiangshan Sheji has never been arguing about it, nor is it read in books. She has to travel all over the country, feel the customs of the land, and understand it in order to manage it better.

Just as Xia Mi expected, when they entered the path, another group of 50 people pretended to be the empress and headed towards Jinyang. Not to mention the hardships along the way, when the empress returned to the palace, they hadn't returned yet. Knowing that there is no one alive.

The empress slowly closed her eyes, heartbroken. There were nearly 700 people when she went, and only two hundred and one were left when she returned. A lifetime of exorbitant taxes and corvee and all other things can be regarded as comforting the souls of those who saved her life.

"Cough cough..." After the empress came back and dealt with this matter, she coughed repeatedly, and her spirit was very bad. She waved her hand and asked Qingwu to call the second child. Before Xia Mi could salute, the empress said: "The aftercare I'll leave it to you." Then Qing Wu helped her to rest on the couch.

Doctor Hu has been waiting by the side for a long time.

Xia Mi was at a loss for a while, and after Qing Wu came out to explain for a while, she realized that her cheap mother basically had nothing to do, sighed silently in her heart, and could only take over the stall and clean it up.

Regarding the matter of taking people, it has to be decided by the empress, so she just drew up the memorial first, and then read through some documents that need to be decided by the court. Basically, she dealt with everything within the scope of her authority. Come on, after finishing the job, she raised her neck and moved, only to see that the sky outside the house was dim and slightly bright.

Qing Wu came over with hot water, "Your Highness has been busy all night, wash your face and rest for a while."

"It's dawn?" Xia Mi even forgot that she had ordered people not to disturb her before, but she didn't expect to spend a whole night in the palace dealing with matters, only feeling that her eyes were very dry.She took the hot towel and covered her face, took two deep breaths, and heard Qing Wu say that the Empress asked her to eat together.

Xia Mi hummed, and after applying heat for a while, she felt a little refreshed, and went to see the Empress.

She was much older, and Xia Mi sat across from her, quietly looking at the porridge in her bowl, taking a mouthful, and when the empress put down the bowl, she also stopped, and looked up at the empress, "Mother Emperor, it's better to pay more attention to rest."

"Go and deal with Beizhou's matter." The empress said softly, "Catch the people behind it together." The empress just said a few words, but she was a little powerless, and waved Xia Mi out up.As soon as this person left, the Empress who was supported by Qing Wu shook her head and said sadly: "I didn't expect that I would educate two rebels."

"It's not the emperor's fault. Imperial power has always been a road watered with blood." Qing Wu comforted, and changed the subject after a while, talking about the need to take medicine.The empress laughed at herself, "I don't have many days anyway, what are you doing with all that hard work?"

"How can you think that way, the emperor will definitely get better." Qing Wu helped the empress to rest, and ordered someone to bring the medicine over.

After coming back, Xia Mi, who had been busy for another day and night, went back to the Grand Lady's Mansion in the morning top-heavy, and went back to sleep without saying anything. She felt that she could sleep forever.

Seeing that her eyes were bloodshot, Mammy Zhao felt distressed, so she hurriedly asked someone to cook some soup for her to drink when she got up, and Zhou Yan naturally got the news that she was back. "Didn't it say that it will take half a month according to the schedule?"

Yao Yu shook her head unknowingly.

Zhou Yan got up and prepared to go to the kitchen to make something to deliver, "Do you know what your Highness likes to eat on weekdays?"

"I don't know if I like it, but I know if I don't like it." Yao Yu told Zhou Yan about Xia Mi not eating onions and green peppers. When she was studying with her, she liked to eat cakes, but I have never seen His Highness eating cakes since I came here."

Accompanying reading...

Zhou Yan noticed this, "Then where is the accompanying student now? Why haven't I seen it?"

Yao Yu shook her head, "It is not allowed to talk about that man in the mansion, the old man said that he seems to have been kicked out by His Highness."

Only now did Zhou Yan feel relieved, even if he was kicked out, he was naturally disgusted, and he had nothing to pay attention to.His thoughts turned to Xia Mi again, and he turned and went to the kitchen to see if he could get something to eat for her. He hadn't seen him in ten days since he left.

Bai Ming waited for thirteen days, but there was no sign of Xia Mi, and she stayed in Mo's house all day long. She didn't know if Xia Mi was busy and didn't have time to see her, or... Xia Mi was tired and didn't want to see her?Or maybe Xia Mi...something happened and he couldn't come to see her?Either way, she was uneasy.

Today, there was a loud noise of knocking and beating in the courtyard, which led Bai Ming out of the house. She just wanted to see what was going on, and the voice lashed out in her heart, making her very irritated. There were some potted plants in the courtyard, she walked over, "Miss Mo, this is..."

Leaving aside the identity of Princess Moya, at least she is pampered, and even playing with these flowers and plants herself, Bai Ming couldn't help but take another look, "These seem to be orchids?"

Mo Ya smiled at the corner of her mouth and nodded, "That's right. I saw you listless a few days ago, and I asked you what kind of flowers you like. You said orchids, so I ordered someone to find them. All the orchids that can be found in the capital are here."

It was just a momentary inattention to deal with it, but it was taken seriously by others, Bai Ming felt a little sorry, thinking that it seemed that Mo Ya had indeed come to ask her, but she was worried about Xia Mi's affairs recently, how could she bother with others?But don't want to, unintentionally plant willows and willows into shade.She lowered her head, "Miss Mo... I'm sorry."

"In the future...Miss Mo doesn't have to be like this." Bai Ming said after a slight pause.It's not that she doesn't understand the world, but she can no longer owe Mo Ya anything, her heart is too small to accommodate so many people.Bai Ming sighed inwardly, Moya is a nice person, but many things cannot be solved by being nice.

She didn't dare to look into Mo Ya's eyes anymore, and now she couldn't leave, so she just lowered her head and pretended not to know.

Mo Ya laughed, "You are a guest of my house, how can I not care about it?" She looked into the sky, and said to herself: "If you don't like orchids, then I will give you whatever you like. What did you get, I just want to treat you well, please don't refuse me on this point."

She turned her head to look at Bai Ming, "Here, you are the only one who makes me feel that I am still alive."

After hearing this, Baiming raised her head and fell into her lonely eyes. Baiming shook her head slightly, "Orchids are very good, thank you, but...you really don't have to plant them yourself."

Mo Ya frowned and smiled, "If you don't come here in person, what if one of them doesn't survive?" After that, she squatted down and tossed those orchids again, digging the soil and digging holes to bury the flowers. It's very hard work, Bai Ming is helpless, you can't just watch the master plant flowers for you, can you?

She had no choice but to squat down and help plant together.

Mo Ya pursed her lips and smiled, feeling happier in her heart.

"Miss Mo... Recently, have you heard about Her Royal Highness?"

Mo Ya shook her head, "No." She didn't lie, there was no news about Xia Mi recently, since Xia Mi met Bai Ming in the back street of her mansion more than ten years ago, it seems that the Empress has never been in court If even the state affairs are handled by the three princesses, then there is only one possibility: the empress and the empress are not in Shangjing.

"Why didn't you contact her directly?" Mo Ya asked pretending not to care, "When I was in the study, no one knew that the relationship between the two of you was extraordinary. After thinking about it for so long, she was also angry."

Speaking of this, Bai Ming's ears turned red, but fortunately, Mo Ya had been pretending to concentrate on the work in hand, so she didn't see it.

Contact her?But why did Bai Ming go to her?If it happens that Xia Mi is busy, wouldn't that cause trouble for her?Bai Ming lowered his eyelids, and occasionally, "What's the difference between me and those servants in the back house?" flashed through my mind?Waiting for her to come. Xing'ah, she shook her head, no longer thinking deeply.
