The next day, Helian Duan Yanyin was called up by Yuyin to wash and change clothes to prepare for the morning court.

Helian Duanyan was so sleepy that he closed his eyes almost the whole time, and Yuyin was still fiddling with it.

After putting the court clothes on Helian Duanyan, Yuyin walked up to her, and put her hands around her waist, trying to tie the belt.

Unexpectedly, Helian Duanyan suddenly hugged Yuyin, and immediately rested his chin on her left shoulder.

Yuyin was stunned for a moment, then raised her hand and patted Helian Duanyan's back lightly.

"I should have missed the court early"

He Lian Duanyan closed his eyes and pouted unhappily, "I missed it and just didn't go. Didn't Father allow me to take a vacation?".

"On vacation?" Yuyin wanted to get out of Helian Duanyan's arms, but found it was futile, "Is the emperor gifting you on vacation?".

After a while, Fang heard Helian Duanyan hum slightly.

Yuyin hooked the corner of her lower lip helplessly, and then threw aside the court dress belt in her hand.

"Go back to bed and sleep again"

Helian Duanyan was also obedient this time, obediently let go of Yuyin, and was still supported by her back on the couch.

Helian Duanyan was lying on the couch, frowning tightly, looking uncomfortable.

"Yuyin, I have a headache"

Sitting in front of the couch, Yuyin raised her jade hand lightly, rolled up her slightly loose sleeves, exposing her slender wrists, and then gently rubbed Helian Duanyan's forehead and temples.

Watching Helian Duanyan's brows gradually unfolding, a gleam of light flashed in Yuyin's usually indifferent eyes.

Yuyin's movements gradually slowed down, and suddenly, Helian Duanyan raised her hand and grabbed her wrist, and then pulled a little harder, and Yuyin threw herself into Helian Duanyan's arms.

"Yuyin, come with me."

The sun was shining brightly outside the window, Yuyin reckoned that the time had passed, she raised her eyes to look at Helian Duanyan who was still sleeping comfortably, and couldn't bear to wake her up, so she wanted to get up by herself, but when she moved, Helian Duanyan immediately put her She hugged even tighter.

Since there is nothing else, let her sleep, Yuyin looked up at Helian Duanyan's side face, and smiled lightly.

"I'll be with you if you need me"

Shangguan Ziyi saw someone coming out of the room from a distance, and couldn't help muttering, "Are you awake?".

"It must be", Hua Yi smiled, "After all, it's not too early now."

Shangguan Ziyi seemed to suddenly think of something, and immediately became excited.

"Let's go, follow Ai's family to have a look, maybe Ai's family will soon become a grandma."

Just as Ru Yu was about to go out, she was taken aback when she saw Shangguan Zi Yi who suddenly appeared, and then hurriedly knelt down to salute.

"Meet the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager is a thousand years old"

"get up"

Shangguan Ziyi walked into the house alone, and Sang Qingyi who heard the sound was also walking out.

"Meet the imperial grandmother, congratulations"

"Oh, granddaughter-in-law doesn't need to be so polite." Shangguan Ziyi took a step forward and took Sang Qingyi's hand, "Are you up? Did you sleep well last night?".

"Slept well, thank you for your concern, Grandmother"

When Sang Qingyi looked up, she saw Shangguan Ziyi looking around.

"What about Yan'er, why don't you see her?"

Along the way, Shangguan Ziyi was complaining to Sang Qingyi, complaining that Helian Zhengde sent so many things to Helian Duanyan.

Sang Qingyi suddenly regretted that she should not have told Shangguan Zi Yihe that Duanyan was in the study.I don't know if that person has woken up at this time, if not, the imperial grandmother will definitely guess that they are sleeping in separate rooms.

However, the door of Ling Shu Zhai was closed, and there was no one waiting outside the house. Shangguan Ziyi glanced at Sang Qingyi suspiciously, and then said to the people behind him, "You all wait here."

Sang Qingyi looked at Shangguan Ziyi looking around lightly, feeling very helpless in her heart, she could come in openly, why did she have to be so sneaky like now.

There was no one in front of the desk, and the two immediately looked to the other side. There was no one on the recliner by the window, and then there was a soft couch facing the recliner.

When seeing the two sleeping together on the soft couch, Shangguan Ziyi first glanced at Sang Qingyi beside him, looking extremely excited.

Sensing the sound, Yuyin opened her eyes quickly, and when she caught a glimpse of Shangguan Ziyi and Sang Qingyi who suddenly appeared, she felt a little flustered.

Ignoring that Helian Duanyan hadn't woken up yet, with a little push, he got away from Helian Duanyan's arms.

"Yuyin has met the Queen Mother and Princess"

Helian Duanyan who was woken up sat up, "Yuyin, what are you doing?" The moment he opened his eyes, he saw a magnified face of Shangguan Ziyi. Helian Duanyan woke up immediately after being so frightened. "Grandmother, why are you here?"

Shangguan Ziyi suddenly smiled maliciously, "Not only Aijia, but also."

Following Shangguan Ziyi's gaze, Helian Duanyan saw Sang Qingyi standing not far away...

Helian Duanyan sat there eating breakfast in a broken state, while Shangguan Ziyi kept whispering in her ear.

"If Grandmother wants to go, just ask Father to accompany you," Helian Duanyan said weakly.

"No, your father can't go"

"Why? Didn't your father accompany you to go in the past?" Helian Duanyan couldn't be fooled.

Looking at Helian Duanyan's expression of reluctance, "If your father hadn't been busy with state affairs these days, you thought Aijia would be happy to find you."

"The emperor's grandmother may not know, but neither does the grandson"

"Your father told Aijia that he gave you half a month's leave."

Seeing the fox-like smile on Shangguan Ziyi's face, Helian Duanyan suddenly realized that she was plotted by his father, and he couldn't deal with the old fox in front of him, so he dragged her into the water!

So, three days later, Helian Duanyan had no choice but to accept her fate and accompany her imperial grandmother to the north.

In previous years, when the heat came, Empress Dowager Shangguan Ziyi would move north to the Royal Summer Palace—Tianquan Palace, and this year is no exception.

"I feel refreshed after leaving the palace gate," Shangguan Ziyi lifted the curtain and took a look outside, "The scenery outside is better than the one inside the palace."

Sang Qingyi looked at Shangguan Ziyi who was like a child, and unconsciously bent the corner of her mouth, this scene happened to fall into Shangguan Ziyi's eyes.

"Granddaughter-in-law should smile more, it doesn't look good if she keeps a straight face all day long."

Sang Qingyi didn't know how to react, so she heard Shangguan Ziyi continue:

"My daughter-in-law, this is the first time I have traveled far away."

"Yes"

Sang Qingyi nodded slightly. This was indeed the first time she had left Jinling City. She had thought more than once that she could leave Jinling to visit other places. Now it finally came true, but everything seemed to have changed.

The sadness that flashed in Sang Qingyi's eyes did not escape Shangguan Ziyi's eyes, and Shangguan Ziyi lifted the curtain of the carriage.

"Granddaughter-in-law, come and have a look, the scenery outside is quite different from the one in the palace"

Sang Qingyi didn't know how to refuse, so she sat down, and couldn't help but feel a wave of excitement when she saw the scenery outside the carriage, it really had a special flavor.

Looking to the right, just in time to meet the eyes of Helian Duanyan who suddenly looked back, Sang Qingyi was slightly taken aback, and quickly withdrew her gaze.

"Grandmother, please drink tea"

Sang Qingyi handed a cup of tea to Shangguan Ziyi, since Ru Yu and Hua Yi were not there, Sang Qingyi had to do it herself.

After Shangguan Ziyi took it, she smelled it first, "What kind of tea is this?".

"Pine Cone Tea"

"Is this your granddaughter-in-law's favorite tea?" Shangguan Ziyi asked suddenly.

A trace of surprise flashed in Sang Qingyi's eyes, but she still nodded.

Shangguan Ziyi took a sip of the tea in the cup, then glanced at the pastries on the coffee table, and asked Sang Qingyi again.

"These are also the snacks that granddaughter-in-law likes to eat?"

Sang Qingyi didn't pay much attention to the snacks on the coffee table at first, but Shangguan Ziyi took a look when she asked her, and they were really all her favorite snacks.

"Yes"

The next moment, Sang Qingyi saw Shangguan Ziyi frowned in displeasure, turned around and opened the curtain of the carriage.

"Yan'er, you are too partial!"

Helian Duanyan turned around inexplicably, "What does the emperor's grandmother mean by that?"

Shangguan Ziyi pursed her lips in dissatisfaction, "The tea and snacks in your car are all favorites of your granddaughter-in-law, and you haven't prepared anything for Ai's family!".

Hearing this, Helian Duanyan was a little speechless, who told her not to take her own carriage, but to take her Yunyan Palace's carriage.

"All the things that the imperial grandmother loves are in the carriage behind you, and there will be no such thing in this carriage"

"The Ai family doesn't care, Yan'er is biased. If you have a daughter-in-law, you will forget about me, the emperor's grandmother."

"..."

At noon, the brigade finally arrived at the first post on the way.

It was the scorching sun, and everyone seemed a little listless, especially Sang Qingyi, Shangguan Ziyi, Helian Duanyan and Yuyin because they were martial arts practitioners, so they were fine.

Helian Duanyan ordered people to send them to the guest room to rest first, and then sent someone to fetch water for them to wash.

Ruyu washed the veil with cold water, took it out and wrung it half dry, then handed it to Sang Qingyi.

"Miss, are you okay?"

After all, it was the first time to travel far, and the weather was relatively hot, Ruyu was very worried that Sang Qingyi's body would not be able to bear it.

Sang Qingyi wiped her face with a cold handkerchief, and then wiped her hands.

"Yu'er don't worry, I'm fine"

After tidying up briefly, Sang Qingyi went to the next room to visit Empress Dowager Shangguan Ziyi.

"Granddaughter-in-law is here"

Seeing Sang Qingyi coming in, Shangguan Ziyi looked very happy.

"Grandmother feels fine"

"Okay, okay, everything will be fine when I see my grandson-in-law."

As soon as Sang Qingyi sat down here, Shangguan Ziyi suddenly asked her with a mysterious face

"Daughter-in-law, do you think this inn is a bit weird?"

Sang Qingyi looked around, then shook her head.

Shangguan Ziyi glanced outside, "Look, the sun is burning outside, but the room is not hot at all, instead it gives people a sense of coolness."

After what Shangguan Ziyi said, Sang Qingyi realized that this was indeed the case, and it was the same in the carriage just now.

The sharp-eyed Shangguan Ziyi just happened to see a person from a posthouse passing by, so he ordered them to bring them in.

"The little one has seen the Empress Dowager and Princess Duan"

"Aijia asks you, it's so hot outside, why is it so cool in the room?"

"Returning to the Empress Dowager, it is the ice cubes sent by King Duan overnight yesterday, and let the little ones put it in the room today..."

Shangguan Ziyi watched the man retreat, looked at Sang Qingyi with some taste and said,

"This inkstone is much more considerate than her father and grandpa."

Sang Qingyi lowered her eyes slightly, but did not answer, at this moment, Yuyin led two maidservants in.

"Yuyin has met the Queen Mother and Princess"

"Yuyin, where is Yan'er, why don't we see her?" Shangguan Ziyi asked.

"Go back to the queen mother, I still have something to deal with, I will come to see you later"

Yuyin turned to signal the maid behind her to put the things on the table, "I'm afraid the Queen Mother and Princess are also thirsty, this is something I specially prepared for you two to quench your thirst."

Shangguan Ziyi watched as Yuyin poured out a bowl of dark brown stuff and put it in front of her, with white mist still floating on it.

"what is this"

Yuyin curled the corner of her lower lip, "The queen mother will know after tasting it."

Just as Shangguan Ziyi was about to taste it, he suddenly glanced sideways at Sang Qingyi.

"Get a bowl for granddaughter-in-law too"

Unexpectedly, Yuyin stopped her and said, "The Lord told me that the princess should not drink what the queen mother drinks."

Shangguan Ziyi looked at what Yuyin poured out from another pot, it was not much different from what was in her bowl, only the color was slightly lighter.

"Princess please"

"Aijia also wants a bowl of granddaughter-in-law's." Shangguan Ziyi raised his eyes and stared at Yuyin.

"..."

Yuyin smiled lightly, didn't say anything, and poured Shangguan Ziyi a bowl.

Shangguan Ziyi tasted the first bowl, "Mmm, sweet and sour, refreshing and cool, this sour plum soup is really good", and then started to taste the bowl that was poured out later, Fang frowned as soon as he took it , "Why is this still hot, and it still smells sweet."

Seeing Shangguan Ziyi staring at her all the time, Sang Qingyi picked up the spoon and took a sip. It was warm and sweet in the mouth, and tasted like jujube and wolfberry.

"It's red dates and wolfberry syrup..."
