Chapter 450

Taking off the blood-stained clothes on her body, soaking her cold body in warm water, Xi Yan scooped up a handful of water, and patted her face vigorously. Under the invasion of this warm current, her thoughts froze like It's like ice cubes in winter, slowly melting.

The whole person was buried in the water, and the black hair was floating like vines. Because of the lack of oxygen, the feeling of suffocation came overwhelmingly. Xiyan shook her hair, reached out and patted the hands on her face. The eyes regained their initial clarity.

"Xiaobai, I'll wait for you."

She looked at the bead curtain that kept shaking in front of her eyes, and said to herself.

Leaving from the water, drying her hair, and putting on clean clothes, at this moment, she had an idea in her mind about her and Xiao Bai's future.

After taking a hot bath, I felt a lot more comfortable and relaxed.

There were only two lights in the room, the tea on the table was already cold, Xiangsi sat at the round table, looked in the direction of the door, and asked Hongdou next to her, "Why hasn't the princess come yet?"

Hongdou patted her hand and said with a smile: "The concubine is already back, she said she will come back to find us, sister, don't be too impatient."

In fact, she was even more anxious than Acacia.

The door of the room was pushed open, Xiangsi hurriedly stood up, walked to the bed, took out a small heater, and handed it to Xiyan's hand, her eyes were red, she couldn't help calling: "Princess."

Xi Yan gave a grunt, compared to the excitement of lovesickness, her reaction was too flat.

He squinted at the red beans on the side, took the tea she handed over, and put it on the table without drinking it.

"sit down."

Xiyan pointed to the two places on the left and right, and motioned for them to sit down.

These two girls grew up with Mo Xiyan, she is not Mo Xiyan, even with her memory, it is difficult for a cold-blooded person like her to empathize with her, but in the past two years, Xiangsi has taken care of the entire Prince Gong's mansion He is methodical and conscientious in taking care of Xiaobai, not to mention Hongdou, who is always with her wherever she goes.

"Princess, where is the prince? Why didn't you see him?"

Xiangsi has been taking care of Xia Yebai all the time, just now she just saw Xiyan and wanted to ask, she kept holding back, but after all, she couldn't stop.

"He was seriously injured and will not be able to return for a while."

Acacia Hongdou's face reflected in the firelight was equally pale, but Xiyan didn't know if they were worried about the same thing.

"Xiangsi, Hongdou, you two will leave the palace tomorrow and don't come back."

Xi Yan announced her order lightly.

No need for suspects, no doubts for employers, these two maids, she no longer has the trust she used to have, so it's meaningless to stay by her side.

Seeing Hongdou, the first thing that comes to mind is not her goodness, but her betrayal of herself. Keeping such a person by her side is just to block her heart.

Xiangsi and Hongdou are like sisters, if Hongdou leaves, Xiangsi will definitely feel dissatisfied, and if something happens, she will also be suspicious, it is better to separate.

"Princess, why is this? Is Xiangsi not doing well enough?"

Xiangsi knelt on the ground, grabbed Xiyan's clothes, and burst into tears.

Hongdou didn't speak, stood up abruptly, accidentally knocked over the water on the table, splashed the tea everywhere, stared at Xiyan with wide eyes.

"Princess, is it because I didn't manage the palace well? I will definitely work harder in the future."

Xiyan shook her head and pulled Xiangsi up from the ground. To be honest, Xiangsi didn't do anything wrong. Her only fault was that she had a good relationship with Hongdou. However, who could be blamed for this, could she be blamed?The two grew up together, and they were both her maidservants, how could their relationship be bad?
"Xiangsi, you did a good job."

As soon as Xiyan finished speaking, Hongdou snatched it up: "Is that because we are useless?"

The voice, no doubt, was reprimanded.

"The emperor passed away, Concubine Li died, Hongdou, your dream is broken."

Hongdou's jet-black eyes widened, and she fell limply to the ground. On the other side, Xiangsi's eyes were full of doubts, and her eyes wandered back and forth between Xiyan and Hongdou.

Xiyan put the stove in her hand on the table. That thing can only warm her body, and she, Mo Xiyan, can bear the coldness of her body.

Xiyan got up, walked to Hongdou's side, stretched out her hand and gently smoothed the hair that fell on her temples, and at some point in her hand, a pill was added, and it was sent into Hongdou's slightly opened mouth, those bright eyes , as if on fire, resisted, but it had no effect.

Xiyan's words, Xiangsi was unclear, so her order made her feel overwhelmed and flustered. In addition, Xiyan's back was turned to her, and her movements were deliberately small, and there were tables and chairs as cover. Did not notice.

Only when she was sure that Hongdou had swallowed the pill did Xiyan let go of her, stood up, took out her clothes from the bed, and put them on her body.

"Pack up your things, and I'll ask the cashier to pay you a sum of money, enough for you to find a place to live in peace and stability for the rest of your life."

He walked directly to the door, and the moment he opened the door, he stopped.

"Take good care of the red beans."

The medicine she gave Hongdou was not fatal, but it would make her insane and become the same person as Xia Junchi.

After all, she still couldn't bear it.

This result is good for the three of them.

Emperor Jing passed away. In the spring of the 20th year of Dajing, the new emperor officially ascended the throne.

Youdao is the three fires of the new official's appointment. After the new emperor took the throne, he carried out a series of drastic reforms.

In terms of rectification and administration of officials: at the beginning of the ascension to the throne, we eliminated redundant staff, reduced idle institutions, rectified officials, selected talents and promoted a large number of young talents. At the same time, martial arts were added, stipulating that if a woman had another skill, she could also be an official in the court, creating a precedent for Liuli women to be officials.

In terms of economy: Vigorously promote mutual market exchanges with other countries, improve the status of merchants, and at the same time greatly increase the tax revenue of the country, pay attention to agricultural production, and build a large number of water conservancy projects. Although it is not the harvest season, it is predictable Yes, Liuli will definitely have an unprecedented bumper harvest this year.

In terms of military affairs: everyone has strengthened the deployment of troops in frontier fortresses such as Youzhou and Yunzhou, and at the same time improved the treatment of border soldiers, and put forward the slogan of training more military talents.

Although only half a year has passed, these measures are still effective. The efficiency of officials' work has been greatly improved, especially the economic benefits are remarkable.
