Traveling through famine years, peasant girls hold space in their hands to store food

Xiao Zihong on the cruise ship was chatting with Chu Haochen all the time, and was also observing him in the meantime.

A trace of doubt flashed in his eyes. Could it be that before...

Lu Qingqing slowly stood up at this time, walked towards Zi Yao and whispered to her to go to the restaurant to get some more watermelons.

"It's the master."

When she was about to leave, Lu Qingqing quickly wrote on her palm, "Go check the Four Princes' Palaces."

Zi Yao quickly understood what her master meant. She asked softly, "Master, you like watermelon juice. Can I ask the shopkeeper to bring an extra pot?"

Lu Qingqing raised the corners of her lips in a sly smile and nodded slightly.

Zi Yao then turned around and quickly used her internal energy to disappear on the cruise ship.

When Chu Lu Qingqing was beside Chu Haochen, the two looked at each other. He saw that the little woman's eyes were always glancing at Xiao Zihong, and he understood that his wife was going to do something.

He cooperated and chatted with Xiao Zihong about this and that.

Fortunately, Prince Xiao also joined in at this time, allowing the topic to continue.

Yu Yao pulled Lu Qingqing aside to ask her for advice on piano skills and music.

"Which song does Princess Yuyao like very much?"

Yu Yao's eyes were full of stars, and she nodded excitedly like a little kid asking for candy.

At this time Yan Xi interrupted.

"Princess Yuyao is one of the best zither players in Shangyu Country."

Lu Qingqing said rudely, "You haven't seen enough..."

"you......"

Lu Qingqing really hated this brainless Yan Xi. If it wasn't for the purpose of delaying them, Lu Qingqing really wouldn't have the energy to deal with them.

At this time, Zi Yao had already sent a signal to the people in Baicaotang, conveying the master's intention to them for execution.

The people at Baicaotang were very efficient and quickly searched all four palaces.

But they didn't see Sally, which made them very confused.

However, when they were about to leave, they heard the nanny in the backyard urging them from afar.

"Hurry up, the prince asked us to send all these to the other courtyard, why don't we hurry up?"

As they spoke, two servants followed the nanny and quickly got into a carriage, which soon drove towards the east of the city.

A few people looked at each other in confusion and then quickly got on the carriage.

After a cup of tea, the carriage arrived at an alley in the east of the city and stopped at the deepest part of the alley.

A servant jumped off the carriage first and knocked on the gate of the courtyard, and soon the carriage was driven into the courtyard.

The waiter who closed the door finally looked around to see if anyone was paying attention to him.

"There must be something wrong here!"

"Be careful not to alert the enemy. Let's go and take a look."

As they talked, they quickly found themselves outside the wall of the backyard of the villa.

At this time, Lu Qingqing and her husband slowly stood up and exchanged a few words with Princess Yu Yao.

"I'm sorry to bother you today. I will be leaving now, Prince Chen and Princess Chen."

Yu Yao, who was speaking, nodded towards Lu Qingqing with a smile on her face, then followed Xiao Zihong and left the cruise ship.

During the chat, Xiao Zihong seemed to have sensed something. For example, although Chu Haochen and his wife didn't interact much with him, it was certain that they didn't have a very pleasant chat. Today......

He lowered his eyes and thought, while Princess Yan Xi beside him snorted coldly in a bad tone and kept muttering about Lu Qingqing's faults.

At this time, Yu Yao whispered to Xiao Zihong whether he wanted to come to find her at night. Xiao Zihong was obviously stunned. Thinking of what would happen later, Xiao Zihong curled the corners of his lips and nodded.

"Let's go, I'll take you back."

As it was getting late, Yu Yao felt a little tired. However, Yan Xi was still not satisfied and pulled her brother beside her to say that she wanted to visit the night view of the capital.

Prince Xiao had no choice but to be dragged by her and run towards the city.

After Xiao Zihong sent Yu Yao to the posthouse, he turned around and left, but secretly returned a quarter of an hour later.

This time no one noticed him. When he arrived at the room, Yu Yao had just finished washing up, changed into a gauze dress, and was leaning on the beauty couch.

At this time, she saw Xiao Zihong walking towards her slowly with a bag of osmanthus cake in his hand.

Yu Yao raised the corners of her lips and smiled: "I thought you were really gone."

"Didn't I promise to stay with you?"

Xiao Zihong stood up and walked forward to kiss her forehead lightly, and Yu Yao's face suddenly turned red.

......

At this time, Lu Qingqing and Chu Haochen had already returned to Prince Chen's Mansion. Zi Yao ran in and reported:

"Master, I have discovered something."

Lu Qingqing stood up suddenly, staring at Zi Yao closely.

"Master, the people from Baicaotang have rescued a person from the other courtyard. They were afraid that Xiao Zihong would find out, so they simply set a fire there and prepared a corpse..."

Lu Qingqing asked if the identity of the person she rescued could be confirmed, and Zi Yao shook her head, pursing her red lips.

Chu Haochen stood up and walked to her side, saying softly, "Don't worry, I will go with you to take a look."

As they spoke, the two of them followed Zi Yao and headed straight towards Baicao Hall under the moonlight.

When the few people arrived at Baicaotang, the steward had just treated the person they rescued.

"This subordinate has met the master."

"Does anyone inside know who it is? How is the person now?"

Lu Qingqing anxiously asked the manager in front of her.

He just shook his head helplessly and said with some regret that the person inside had just woken up, but the injuries on his body were accumulated over a long period of time and his body was seriously weak.

"Master, that man won't live long..."

Lu Qingqing frowned, then asked him to take her to have a look.

Chu Haochen took Lu Qingqing's hand and followed the steward into the yard next door.

At this moment, a maid just came out carrying a copper basin. When she saw the steward from a distance, she bowed and saluted.

"Is anyone inside awake?"

"Sir, I'm awake, but I'm not saying anything."

He waved his hand to let the maid go first, then he opened the door and stepped aside to let Lu Qingqing go in first.

Lu Qingqing and Chu Haochen smelled blood and a strong smell of medicine when they walked into the room.

The two looked at each other, and Lu Qingqing slowly walked forward, lifted the bead curtain and came to the bed.

She saw the person lying on the bed with his head tilted inwards, and she couldn't tell for a moment whether it was...

"Sally?"

When the person on the bed heard the voice, he turned around abruptly and said something to Lu Qingqing while sobbing.

"you......"

Lu Qingqing looked in shock at the person in front of her whose face had been ruined, and the hoarse voice, as if he could only sob but could not utter a single clear word.

"You're Sally, right?"

Lu Qingqing asked tentatively, and the person on the bed was extremely excited.

She leaned towards the bed again, and Chu Haochen behind her pulled Lu Qingqing's arm worriedly.

She turned back and whispered soothingly, "It's okay, this must be Sally, right? Nod or shake your head."

I saw her nodding her head with great effort.
