After that dinner, every meal had carrots, no matter how Chu Qingyan protested, it didn't work.
She had no idea and only swallowed the vegetables that she didn't like but necessary for growth.
She felt that she was so painful to have experienced two growths in her life.
They rushed for three days and nights in a row, and found an inn before dark, perhaps because they did successfully makeup that they had pa.s.sed without being attacked along the way.
After dinner, Chu Qingyan followed Xiao Xu into his room.
“Is there something you want to tell?” he saw her hesitating on the way, but he didn't ask her, thinking that she couldn't help telling him sooner or later, but she didn't speak until after super, Xiao Xu sat in a chair and looked up at her.
Chu Qingyan sat down in front of him, holding her chin with both hands, and looked worried, “Big Ice Cube, we have reached the border of Xixuan, after crossing the border, we will reach Jiang State.”
“Yes.” Xiao Xu responded casually.
“I asked Earth Spirit, he said if we take a short route, we will soon be able to go from Junlan State to Jiang State, as soon as half a month, I was wondering what kind of methods we should use to obtain that ice crystal flower, I have no idea now.” She was distressed to rub her head.
It turned out that this little girl was troubled by this matter, Xiao Xu didn't look as entangled as her, he calmly said, “Everything goes naturally, you don't have to think too much.”
“But we still didn't get any news about Potential Love gra.s.s, I can't calm down.” She laid on the table, her head buried between her elbows.
As soon as the words finished, she felt her head sink, she raised her eyes from her arm, and saw that the Big Ice Cube was gently stroking her head, she was moved, “Big Ice Cube–“
“Don't think too much at a young age, If the contents of your mind are too heavy, you won't grow tall.” He retracted his hands and looked at her anxiously.
What did this have to do with her height?
Big Ice Cube, you've made the last amazing hitting again!
So Chu Qingyan went into the room with her heart full of distress and then left the room with discomfort.
Xiao Xu looked at the door that was heavily closed, slightly lip-scratched and gently touched the table with his fingers, after a while, he said, “Come in.”
Fire Spirit and Earth Spirit opened the door in response.
“Master.”
“Well, what happened recently?” Xiao Xu leaned on the back of his chair, looking lazy, and he could be seen that he was in a good mood.
Fire Spirit said, “Master, Gu Rong returned to the capital, after the Queen received the news about you was missing, she sent a letter to let the Liang family find you at any cost, now people should have set off, and except your Majesty let local officials search for your location, there are at least three forces looking for you, one of which is the Yue Palace. However, your little princess asked me to divert the attention of local officials to those thieves in the last time, already successfully holding back their footsteps so that there is no danger in this travel.”
He already knew the order the little girl had given before; indeed, it was a good move to retaliate.
“Continue to hide in the dark and don't let anyone can find you, whether they are a.s.sa.s.sins, or from the palace or the Liang family.” Xiao Xu said flatly.
“Master, don't you plan to let the Queen know that you are safe?” Fire Spirit was a little puzzled.
“Not for now.” Xiao Xu replied lightly, looking calm, and no one could see what he was thinking.
Fire Spirit didn't ask any more, Earth Spirit stepped forward and said, “Master, the Water Spirit has sent news today, the Potential Love gra.s.s is still missing, but she has extended the search scope to the surrounding large countries.”
“Well, Xixuan has an underground trading city, send some people to sneak in and to explore the news.”
There were mixed mermaids in the dungeon, but it also was the best place to explore the news, because it contained people from all countries in all fields and cla.s.ses, they were eating, drinking and gambling, it was the most hidden place and the trading was the most mysterious, many rare treasures are hard to be found in the market but easy to be seen everywhere inside.
“I will write to tell Water Spirit later.” Earth Spirit responded.
Fire spirit said, “Master, the customs clearance for entering the Junlan State has been completed, as soon as we enter the national boundary, we can contact the personnel scattered in the Junlan State.”
“Well, we just pa.s.sed by, don't need to disturb anyone else.” Xiao Xu nodded, he never had to intervene in these things, they would do it by themselves.
The others said by their master, needless to say, they knew that they were people in the royal of Junlan State.
“Yes.”
Junlan State, long time no see.
Xiao Xu looked out the window, the night and moon were dark, the cold wind was roaring, and his eyes were calm.
As long as returning to the room, Chu Qingyan suddenly saw the extra people in the room, she was startled. She stroked her chest and whispered, “Mother, why don't you say anything, I thought it was the thief.” The fear of the a.s.sa.s.sination a while ago was almost a reflex.
Chu's mother laughed, “I have never seen you so timid before.”
“It's different now.” Chu Qingyan went straight to the table, poured a gla.s.s of water for her mother, and also poured a cup for herself. After taking a sip, Chu Qingyan was curious and said, “Mother, it's so late, why don't you come to me?”
“You're running around so late at night, too!” Chu's mother raised her hand and nodded Chu Qingyan's nose slightly, shaking her head with a smile.
“I'm going to your Highness' room, I'm not going to elsewhere. I have already grown up, don't worry!” Chu Qingyan laughed.
When she heard her daughter say this, Chu's mother felt a little tension, just because her daughter had grown up, she wasn't relieved, especially when she heard that Chu Qingyan went to your Highness's room so late at night, she hesitated for a moment and then said, “Caicai, I asked you, what do you think of your Highness? “
Chu Qingyan answered without thinking, “He is romantic, handsome and unrestrained, right and wrong clear, selfless, self-denying, respecting the old and loving the young …”
Before she finished, Chu's mother interrupted with a smile, “You girl, how can you say more and more outrageous, I asked you seriously, not to play with you.”
Chu Qingyan put down her cup, reached her hands out and hugged her mother, she smiled innocently, “Mother, why do you suddenly want to ask me this question?”
“I'm afraid that you will be wronged in the future.” On this way, your Highness wasn't enthusiastic about others including her daughter, and if things continued this way, she was afraid that Caicai would fall into but she didn't get the same level response, although it wasn't surprising that a man with many wives and concubines, but perhaps because she had met her husband in this life and she was treated as a treasure, so she also hoped that her daughter could have such man.
“I don't feel wronged, in fact, your Highness treats me well when you weren't there, I think he is like a big brother and always tolerates me.” Chu Qingyan smiled and said.
Hearing that, Chu's mother couldn't help but thought that she might have thought too much, Caicai was still too young to do know what was love.
In fact, Chu's mother thought wrong, not because Caicai didn't know, but she didn't think about herself.
What is love? It's just that two people had experienced all the turbulence and separation, supported each other, and slowly learned mutual help and relief in time of poverty.
Merry Christmas! May the beauty and joy of Christmas remain with you throughout the new year!
