Chapter 80
In the early morning, Luo Jiaojiao came out of the inner room and found that Bao Langjun was not in the house. She gently opened the door, and Jiang Yu, who was guarding the door, handed her a parcel and money bag, saying that the horses she had brought home had already been sent back.
Get ready.
Is this asking her to ride back alone? Luo Jiaojiao was startled for a moment, then she went downstairs to the backyard with her money bag with a wry smile.
That's fine. Instead of being relatively silent, it's better to do your own thing earlier.
Luo Jiaojiao was worried about her father and sister, so she quickly climbed onto the horse.
"Mr. Lang told you to change clothes in Hedong County!" Jiang Yu, who had been following Luo Jiaojiao, warned.
Luo Jiaojiao, who was eager to return home, put her legs under the horse's belly and rode out of the backyard door of the inn.
Bo Langjun, who was on the attic of the inn, looked at Luo Jiaojiao who left him without hesitation, with a hint of bitterness in his heart.
Bo Langjun stood in the same position for a long time. It wasn't until a fallen leaf fell from the tree that his eyes blinked.
"Jiang Yu! Let's set off!"
Bao Langjun turned around and went down from the attic and came to the yard. The carriage had stopped in front of him.
A trace of rain wetted Bo Langjun's cheek, and his heart suddenly tightened. He actually forgot to prepare an umbrella for her.
Luo Jiaojiao was riding a horse on the official road. The rain blew diagonally onto her face and wet her clothes. She did not stop her horse to take shelter from the rain, but continued to move forward. She wanted to enter before the gate.
Anyi City.
The rain intensified, drenching Luo Jiaojiao. When she led her horse to the door of an inn in the city, the waiter who greeted the guests stared at her blankly for a long time.
"What? Have you never seen a woman?" Luo Jiaojiao, who was all wet, felt uncomfortable all over, and her temper naturally deteriorated a lot.
"You are joking! Why don't you go to the bathroom first?" The waiter came over and led Luo Jiaojiao's horse to the bathroom in the backyard.
The white dress in Luo Jiaojiao's package was also wet by the rain. She gave the boy some coins and asked him to get her a decent dress! The boy took the coins and went to buy them happily.
The warm water in the bathtub dispelled the coldness on Luo Jiaojiao's body.
The bathroom door creaked. Luo Jiaojiao covered her chest with a bath towel and turned around to look alertly.
An elderly nun walked in holding a set of aqua blue printed dresses.
"Little lady! I've put your clothes here for you!" The nanny had already left in a hurry without waiting for Luo Jiaojiao to reply.
Luo Jiaojiao wrapped herself in a bath towel and got out of the tub. She looked carefully and saw that her clothes were quite ready. She packed them on her body one by one.
Luo Jiaojiao entered the guest room freshly dressed. She took off her wet face towel and hung it on the basin stand.
"Here comes the tea!" the waiter shouted outside the door.
"Leave it at the door! Send another brazier!" Luo Jiaojiao ordered.
The clerk was startled when he heard that Luo Jiaojiao wanted a brazier. Then he thought, she must have been caught in the rain and the coldness entered her body, so she must need a brazier!
Luo Jiaojiao heard the footsteps of the waiter disappearing. She opened the door and took the teapot into the house.
Luo Jiaojiao drank a few cups of hot tea and sweated a little, then she felt much more comfortable. She washed the face towel, wrung it out and hung it to dry on the shelf.
When the waiter brought the brazier, Luo Jiaojiao hid in the inner room. The waiter put down the brazier and left.
Luo Jiaojiao then took the wet clothes she had changed and threw them into the brazier.
After a while, the brazier started to smoke. Luo Jiaojiao quickly opened the window and placed the brazier under the window.
The originally warm room gradually became colder. Although the clothes in the brazier turned to ashes, the charcoal fire was almost extinguished.
The rain was still falling. Although Luo Jiaojiao closed the window, the pattering sound was still clearly audible.
Finally she could sleep alone, but Luo Jiaojiao was not used to it. The quilt was very cold, it must be because there was no one who exuded warm breath, Luo Jiaojiao thought to herself. Then, she hugged
As I lay under the quilt, I scolded myself for being shameless.
Luo Jiaojiao, who was tossing and turning and unable to rest her head, felt dizzy and extremely uncomfortable when she woke up in the morning. Seeing that the rain had not stopped, she did not rush on her way, but wrapped herself in a quilt to catch up on her sleep.
Four days later, Lord Baolang's servants returned to Dai Kingdom in a carriage. They entered Pingcheng at night, so almost no one knew about them.
Bao Langjun had not gone to court for more than a month, so he entered the palace overnight as soon as he came back.
When the King of Dai heard that Bao Langjun was back, he hurriedly summoned him in the imperial study.
Bo Langjun said that although he had not obtained the antidote during this trip, he had determined that the poison the princess had been poisoned by was Manshara from the Western Regions.
The king asked Bao Langjun to rest in the palace overnight and go to court early tomorrow.
The next day in the main hall, all the ministers couldn't help but whisper when they saw Bo Langjun standing in front of the court. Everyone wanted to know where he had gone.
Bao Langjun never mentioned it, and the king did not ask. After the court, Bao Langjun went to Luohu Cao and asked about some matters related to the Ministry of Household Affairs. They chatted until the gate of the palace.
Bo Langjun said that he was going to Luo Hucao's house to ask for a cup of tea. Luo Hucao could not refuse, so he could only let him follow him back to Luofu.
After Jiang Yu followed Bo Langjun into Luo Mansion, he went directly to Luo Jiaojiao's boudoir.
When Xuan'er saw Jiang Yu coming, she walked over and saluted. Jiang Yu asked Luo Jiaojiao if she was back. Xuan'er shook his head gently.
Jiang Yu couldn't help being surprised. Luo Jiaojiao was one step ahead of them, and riding a horse was much more convenient and faster than a carriage. Logically speaking, she should be home.
Bo Langjun, who was sitting in the hall drinking tea with Luo Yi, saw Jiang Yu's figure flashing past the door, so he stood up and left.
Jiang Yu said that Luo Jiaojiao had not returned home, and Bo Langjun couldn't help but frowned. She wouldn't have caused any trouble again, right?
Bo Langjun asked Jiang Yu to leave the city immediately and quietly picked up Luo Jiaojiao along the way.
Luo Jiaojiao stayed in Anyi for a day, and then continued riding back along the official road. After entering Taiyuan, she wanted to take a shortcut to Daijun, but she never thought that she would get lost in the mountains. When she finally got out,
Another day has passed in the mountains and forests.
Jiang Yu waited at the intersection from Daijun to Pingcheng for a whole day and night before he saw Luo Jiaojiao's figure appear.
Luo Jiaojiao entered Pingcheng dressed in white. She saw the familiar streets and smelled the soil of her hometown, and she almost cried with joy.
Jiang Yu just followed Luo Jiaojiao secretly and did not show up to meet him. He saw Luo Jiaojiao enter the Luo Mansion with his own eyes, and then turned around and rushed back to report to Bao Langjun.
When Bao Langjun heard that Luo Jiaojiao was back safely, he felt at ease.
After Luo Jiaojiao returned home, she went to her father's study. She told her father about the poison her sister had received. Luo Yi didn't say a word for a long time.
"Dad! Do you know this poison?" Luo Jiaojiao got a clue from Luo Yi's expression.
"This poison is a chronic poison and there is no antidote!" Luo Yi looked at his little daughter with a sad expression.
"How could this happen?" Luo Jiaojiao felt that her legs were weak and she slowly knelt down on the ground.
"Get up! The floor is cold!" Luo Yi walked to Luo Jiaojiao's side heartbrokenly and helped her up.
"Dad!" Luo Jiaojiao threw herself into Luo Yi's arms and cried.
"Child! This may be your sister's fate!" Luo Yi choked.
"No! You must have made a mistake!"
Luo Jiaojiao pushed her father away violently and ran out of the study. She bumped into Yang Zisheng who was coming towards him.
Yang Zisheng was unexpectedly bumped into by Luo Jiaojiao and took two steps back before he regained his footing. He was about to get angry, but found that the person in his arms was Luo Jiaojiao, whom he had been thinking about day and night, and couldn't help but smile.
When he saw Luo Jiaojiao with tears on her face, he was surprised and asked her what was wrong?
"Sister's poison can't be cured!" Luo Jiaojiao cried again.
"No! It can be solved!" Yang Zisheng saw Luo Jiaojiao crying and hurriedly took out his handkerchief to wipe her tears.
Luo Jiaojiao took Yang Zisheng's handkerchief and wiped her nose and tears, then threw it into the grass.
"I want to tell you something today!" Yang Zisheng suddenly became serious.
"What's going on?" Luo Jiaojiao sat on the wooden stake next to her.
"I want to marry you! If you agree, I will go and tell my father!"
"Last time my father rejected your proposal of marriage, this time your father will not agree!" Luo Jiaojiao now felt that Yang Zisheng was much more reliable than Bao Langjun. At least he sincerely wanted to marry her as his wife.
