There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 300 His Return 2
Xia Houjue said in the letter that he had already set off, and if there were no accidents, he would be back in seven or eight days.

"Seven or eight days, what a rush!"

"That's right, master, it took us more than half a month to go back and forth last time. We must not sleep for seven or eight days."

Tang Wanning felt a little pain in her heart, but there was also a hint of cool sweetness, like a piece of ice watermelon in the hot summer, a burst of icy sweetness went straight to the bottom of her heart, refreshing.

He is all for her.

The days of living in acting like this are coming to an end, and the days of her being inhuman and ghost are about to come to an end.

……

Since receiving this letter, Tang Wanning's life has become extremely long, months have passed, but days are endless.

Every minute and every second became a torment.

Finally, after seven or eight days of torment, Xia Houjue returned to Beijing in secret.

She saw him standing in front of her in sapphire blue clothes, with stubble all over his face, bloodshot eyes, and vicissitudes on his cheeks.

Almost without thinking, they rushed over, the two looked at each other speechlessly, only one choked up and the other softly coaxed.

Who would have thought that a person who used to be so dull and cold would be so gentle, coaxing his most beloved woman like a child?
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back." Tang Wanning was like a woman who had been waiting at home for a long time, and finally looked forward to her husband who had traveled far away and returned home.

Joy, sweetness, a thousand words can't be said, only this sentence repeated back and forth.

"Wanwan, are you okay?"

"well……"

One is a young lady who grew up in Jiangmen, who was as naughty as a boy since she was a child, and the other is a silent emperor who grew up in the deep palace, who was reticent and expressionless since childhood.

Even though these two people were full of words, they couldn't say anything.

In the end, there were only some weird conversations.

"Did you have meal?"

"I ate, what about you?"

"I also ate."

When this kind of conversation came out at such a sad moment, even Biyue outside the door couldn't stand it anymore, and couldn't help but burst out laughing, which made the two people in the room even more embarrassed.

When Xia Houjue came back from bathing and changing, Tang Wanning had already had a large table of meals prepared.

"This is a new chef in the palace. He can cook Northwest cuisine well. Even Yunnan-Guizhou cuisine and Sichuan cuisine are very beautiful. It's only slightly spicy but very fragrant..."

While rambling, she clumsily served him vegetables, and she was clumsy in everything she did when she was about to give birth.

Xia Houjue looked at her stomach while eating with a smile.

"Fortunately, I caught up, Wanwan, you have worked hard these days."

"It's not just me, the sixth brother is also working hard, you must thank him well."

"Will do!"

After dinner, the two of them lay on the bed early, Xia Houjue's face was pressed against Tang Wanning's swollen belly with a loving face.

As if the child in his stomach had sensed that his father was coming back, he swung his little feet desperately and kicked Tang Wanning hard in the stomach a few times.

She couldn't help but ouch a few times in pain, and looked at her stomach in surprise: "I'm afraid I'm pregnant with a little devil."

Xia Houjue looked serious: "I will bear with you for another half a month, and wait until you come out to see how I teach you."

Tang Wanning felt distressed for a while: "Hey, he is also a child, and he didn't mean to, so don't be so fierce."

After the baby in the belly subsided, the two chatted about other topics.

For example, what is going on inside the palace, and what is going on outside the palace.

"Wanwan don't worry, I have already made all the arrangements for the Jiangnan side. Let's wait for the time and only owe Dongfeng."

"Are they really going to rebel? It's just a bunch of literati. They can neither wield knives and guns nor fight. How can they rebel?"

Xia Houjue thought for a while, and whispered a few words in her ear. After hearing this, Tang Wanning was shocked and couldn't recover for a long time.

"It's so unnoticed, it's really vicious, scholars are scholars, they are much more powerful than those gangs who only know how to fight and kill."

Xia Houjue smiled coldly: "Don't worry, I have arranged everything. We just wait for them to make any movement, and we will strike and catch them all."

The news from the palace is actually very simple.

It was nothing more than the concubine Xian's return to favor, and she was pregnant. Dong Xianglan was restless and incited the concubine Xian to rebel together.

Xia Houjue was no exception at all, and his eyes didn't even twitch.

"Hey, don't you feel heartbroken? After all, it's also your baby sister who was raised by the same person's milk?"

"Why is my heart hurting? When I was in Yangzhou, I felt that something was wrong. How can there be so many injustices in such a peaceful place?"

"Why did someone who left Beijing more than ten years ago meet so coincidentally? She said that she sold herself to bury her father and was bullied, but I didn't see her burying her father, and even the clothes she was wearing were not ordinary people's clothes." affordable"

It's not that a thin and weak person must be poor, and it's not that if you deliberately smear some dust on your face, you must be desperate.

At the time, I felt that something was wrong, but I didn't know where it was wrong. Now that I think about it, there are really suspicious points everywhere.

Dong Xianglan and those people had planned it for a long time.

……

After everything was straightened out, a chill rose from the soles of my feet.

If I didn't realize it at the beginning, if everything was not so just right, maybe the current situation would have been out of control.

"Wanwan, you have been wronged"

"The big wind and the big waves are coming, and I'm still afraid of this. With you by my side, I don't feel wronged. Now that you're back, I'm even less afraid."

"It's just that it's time for you to give birth. I don't want you to participate in these things. Why don't you go to the nearby Zhuangzi to avoid it?"

Tang Wanning wanted to refuse at first, but after thinking about it, she was not alone now, no matter how capable she was, once the palace became chaotic and arrested, the consequences would be disastrous.

After all, she agreed, but her face was a little disappointed.

"I didn't expect you to come back, but I have to leave. After all, we still can't be together!"

"Soon, Wanwan, soon."

The two looked at each other silently and rested quietly.

……

After Xia Houjue came back, Xia Houjing disappeared without a sound. Xia Houjue continued to be his emperor, and the sixth prince continued to be his prince.

His appearance was never for himself, and no one knew about it.

Before leaving the capital, he looked back at this bustling city again. This place that carried all the prosperity of the Great Xia Dynasty also carried many of his memories.

It's just that those memories are not very good. Now someone is willing to make it better, and he is far more willing to do his part. He just wants to leave after he has done his best.

After all, this is not his destination, no matter how far away his heart is, in the north and south, especially...

He looked to the north, where there was also a woman who had been infatuated with him, but when he realized it, it was too late.

Two people, after all, still missed.
