Chapter 157 Unstable

After visiting Shen Xiao on behalf of Su Tian on the Winter Solstice, he returned to Wangcheng with the news and reported it to Su Tian.

Shen Xiao's body didn't seem to have improved in the slightest due to the warmer weather, he was still weak, and the imperial physician sent to check his pulse couldn't tell why.

Su Tian reported the news to King Qianqiu, but King Qianqiu didn't urge her to take Shen Xiao back to the palace as soon as possible, but only said that people should cultivate well.

Su Tian is relieved.

From winter to spring, the big pigeons and small parrots she raised seem to be fatter, and their feathers are extraordinarily smooth.

"Ah Jiu, I seem to be missing a quill." Su Tian propped her hands on the table, propped her head, and looked at the two cages hanging above her head lazily. On the table in front of her was an unmarked book. There is still a stack of memorials in one corner.

"Your Highness, don't scare them. Things like parrots and pigeons are spiritual and understandable after being raised for a long time." Jiu Lixiang said helplessly while feeding the two little animals.

Su Tian sneered: "It's their honor to devote themselves to me."

"Yes, yes, yes, it is an honor to devote oneself to His Highness, His Highness will say anything." Jiu Lixiang finished feeding the two little things, echoed casually, and then turned to the side to clean his hands.

"Ah Jiu, I'm thirsty." Su Tian said.

Jiu Lixiang cleaned his hands, and when he heard the words, he said, "In the side hall, rock sugar pears are boiled. This season is the most moistening for the throat. The maidservant is preparing to bring it to His Highness."

Su Tian's eyes lit up: "My Ah Jiu really knows my heart."

"This is not due to the servant girl." Jiu Lixiang turned to the side hall, and after a while came in holding a white porcelain cup, walked to the small table, put it down gently, and lifted the lid.

A faint sweet scent hangs in the air.

Jiu Lixiang took a small bowl with a gilt edge, scalded it, took out a bowl from the porcelain cup, and carefully brought it in front of Su Tian: "Your Highness, use it slowly, it's just boiled out, and it's still hot."

The small bowl was still steaming. Su Tian looked at the memorial and wandered into space, and didn't listen to the advice. She grabbed the spoon and wanted to stuff it into her mouth.

"No, Your Highness." Jiu Lixiang grabbed Su Tian's hand.

Su Tian was startled, and with a sudden jerk, the spoon dropped from her hand and fell to the ground.

"Your Highness forgive me, it's the servant girl who was reckless and scared His Highness..." Jiu Lixiang said.

"It's okay." Su Tian waved her hand and said, "What's wrong?"

"Your Highness, the soup is still hot, and it will have to be cold for a while before you can drink it." Jiu Lixiang picked up the spoon on the ground, and said helplessly, "As expected, His Highness will ignore the sweets when he sees them."

Su Tian scratched her head, blinked her eyes, and then looked at the steaming small bowl on the table. Smelling the sweet smell, she couldn't help but licked her lips.

"Your Highness, wait a moment for your servant." Jiu Lixiang shook his head, walked to the door curtain, and whispered: "Mujin, help me get some ice cubes from the ice mirror in the small kitchen."

Hibiscus quickly fetched a small bowl of ice cubes.

Jiu Lixiang took it, and added the ice cubes in the bowl to the small bowl filled with rock sugar and pears. Feeling that the temperature was just right, she put a new spoon and pushed it in front of His Royal Highness, saying: "My son-in-law said His Highness has been coughing all the time these few days, so he specially ordered his servants to make this pear tea."

"Really?" Su Tian lowered her eyebrows, held the small warm bowl with ice on the table, raised her head and drank it in one gulp, the sweetness flowed down her throat and reached her heart.

Recently, the war is about to break out, and she has to prepare before the battle, and she is not stable at the top, so she is inevitably a little distracted, and she has some minor problems.
