Huaiguang placed the wild vegetable cakes that Zhao Xueli gave him on the table.
Xiao Yu looked down and saw that the cake was exactly the same as in his memory.
Huaiguang tentatively said: "Uncle Zhao brought it over and I let it heat up in the kitchen."
Xiao Yu nodded: "Go and get a cup of hot tea."
Although I suddenly lost my appetite, I still ate some. After all, if you can prevent Old Mrs. Yang from adding bran skin to the wild vegetable cake, she is considered an extremely important person, right?
It was like this when he was a child. Mrs. Yang's "preferred" wild vegetable cakes were more delicious than anything else. After leaving the Zhao family, he never had them again.
Huaiguang looked at his prince, drank hot tea, and slowly ate half a piece of wild vegetable cake. The prince had been having a bad appetite since he woke up, and Mr. Sun came to check on him and said he needed to take good care of himself.
However, the prince was too seriously injured this time, and it would not be easy to recover. Moreover... Huaiguang always felt that the prince seemed to know something, but he had not told them yet.
Seeing the prince rushing to deal with official affairs and arranging the deployment of manpower, Huaiguang felt uneasy.
After finally looking forward to seeing the Zhao girl, he did feel that the prince was very happy, but unfortunately... he couldn't tie the person to him openly.
Alas, this is exactly what happened at the moment.
There is not even an elder around the prince, and there are still many things to deal with.
Xiao Yu said: "Take it off and use it at night."
Huaiguang couldn't help sighing. The prince got up before dawn, changed two sets of clothes, and then didn't even drink any water. He kept his head down to deal with official duties, just to make time and wait for the Zhao girl to say a few words. As a result,
If no one comes, even if you eat the food you brought, you won't be in a good mood.
However, he has sent someone to look for Huaiqing, and he will soon be able to find out the reason.
Huaiguang waited until he heard the news about Huaiqing, then walked in and reported to Xiao Yu: "The Zhao family girl was coming, but something happened in the village."
Xiao Yu looked at Huaiguang.
Huaiguang told Huaiqing: "The person who died on the village happened to be in Fengxia Village where the sixteen households settled."
Xiao Yu put down the pen in his hand, so she didn't come because of the girl in the village?
When she first arrived in Taozhou, she knew nothing about it except that she knew Zhao Jingyun. If she could get some information, it would be helpful to the case, and she could also have a deeper understanding of Taozhou.
Huaiguang continued: "Do you remember those villages? The year before last, there was a war here, and the people in the villages came out to help."
Xiao Yu nodded: "Remember, they don't interact with people outside very much."
Huaiguang said: "It's still the same now, but it seems that I have been talking to the Zhao girl for a long time."
Xiao Yu was not surprised, he knew Zhao Luoyang's abilities.
But he remembered that the men in the village were all good at martial arts, and now that a life was involved, he might be implicated.
Xiao Yu said: "The people in the village are always in the village?"
Huaiguang guessed that the prince would be concerned about this matter: "We were looking for something near the village, but the Zhao girl did not stay in the village, but went to Huangjiazhuangzi opposite us."
All the sixteen households in the Huang family's village had taken away their belongings. Huaiguang didn't know what else the Zhao family girl was doing there.
Xiao Yu threw the letter in his hand into the charcoal basin and watched the flames gradually burn the secret letter clean.
Zhao Luoyang would not go to Huangjiazhuangzi for no reason. Although Xiao Yu didn't know the truth, he suspected that it might be related to the people who died in the village.
Xiao Yu fell into thinking. He originally thought that nothing would go wrong in a short time, but now it seems that there is no guarantee. He regretted leaving the anesthesia needle to Zhao Luoyang. Zhao Luoyang might go there because he had something to save his life.
Do a lot of dangerous things.
Xiao Yu looked at Huaiguang: "Find a few people to follow you to avoid making any mistakes."
Huai Guang responded. They obviously brought eight "protectors", but Huai Zheng's men and horses were nearby. These people were protecting the prince, so it was not difficult to mobilize the manpower.
However, these are the people whom the prince most trusts. It is not enough to arrange for Huaiqing and others, and they have to send other people. This shows how much the prince thinks about the girls of the Zhao family.
Huaiguang couldn't help but smile as he thought about it.
"What are you laughing at?" Xiao Yu said, "The news from the capital hasn't arrived yet?"
Huaiguang coughed and regained his composure: "I was told that before noon today...I...will go and urge you."
Where can he go to urge him? Just disappear quickly to avoid being punished by the prince later.
After Huaiguang left, Xiao Yu adjusted his cloak and fumbled for the heater in his hand. He wanted to let her know everything slowly. Firstly, he had many things to solve, and secondly...the relationship between them was a bit complicated.
Given enough time, everything will fall into place, but now he feels that it is not that easy to do.
What they lacked may just be time. He had headaches from time to time in the past two days and took a lot of medicine. Not only did he not get better, he felt more and more weak every day.
To fully recover, he may have to return to his system.
So before that, Zhao Luoyang must at least be familiar with his identity as the prince of the Wang family.
…
Huangjiazhuangzi (Part 1).
Zhao Luoyang was talking to Zhuangtou: "Can you see how clean it is?"
The village head nodded, these relocated people, apart from other things, are really good at doing work. Those rags were sold for less money, but it was worth it, as there was no need to arrange for manpower to clean them up.
"You said that the blackened places on Zhuangzi will also be repaired," Zhao Luoyang said. "When it is repaired next year, if you see the shortage of manpower on Zhuangzi, we can do it."
"The wages are not much, and we will bring our own meals."
The head of the village glanced at the girl. There were people in the village doing all these jobs, but he couldn't tell the truth. No one could tell what they would do.
Zhuangtou said: "For the sake of your quick hands and feet, if there is a good job, I will send someone to Fengxia Village to let you know."
Zhao Luoyang hurriedly thanked Zhuangtou.
"Your Zhuangzi Cultivator is really impressive," Zhao Luoyang continued, "It's a pity to have this fire."
When Zhao Luoyang came, he brought shoe soles made by women in the village to give to Zhuangtou. Zhuangtou knew at a glance that they were the right size for his own feet. These people probably made them according to the shoe prints, so they were thoughtful.
With this incident, Zhuangtou was in a good mood and was willing to talk to Zhao Luoyang.
"If I were in the village, this wouldn't have happened," Zhuangtou said. "Our village is lent to the young cousin of my wife's mother's family. Did you go to the city and see a shop where you can buy rouge and gouache? That's all.
It is the property of my wife’s natal Liu family.”
"Young Master Cousin wants to borrow it, so we can't say anything. But after all, it's not our village. He doesn't know how to cherish it. He didn't take care of the candles when he was sleeping, and he just set the house on fire."
Zhao Luoyang said: "So that's it."
"No," Zhuangtou said, "thank you, I'm fine. It's a blessing in misfortune."
Zhao Luoyang said: "Master Liu should come up with the money for repairing the village."
The head of the village did not dare to discuss his wife's family in depth: "It's true, otherwise we wouldn't have demolished everything that was burned. In fact, they are all in-laws. For our Huang family, this money is nothing but a waste.
It’s just a matter of time, I just regret such a nice house.”
Zhao Luoyang nodded.
Zhuangtou still had something to do, so he didn't talk to Zhao Luoyang much.
I have heard the news from Zhuangzi, but I don’t know if Young Master Liu and Ah Shu know each other.
Zhao Luoyang found Ding Maosheng and others and left Huangjiazhuangzi. Just as he was thinking about whether to go to Wangjiazhuangzi, he saw two horses and a few people waiting there on the official road.
Zhao Luoyang looked over and couldn't help but smile. Those were Zhao Jingyun and Zhang Dianli.
