Chapter 699 What a Day

After the two went out, Hu Huanxi asked, "What did you dream about? It's really scary."

Zi'an asked back, "How did you come in and see me?"

Hu Huanxi said: "Today, there is a lot of excitement in Beijing. It is said that it is to welcome the regent to return to the country with peace. I am too lazy to join in the fun, so I thought of going to the palace to wait. If I don't come to you, Xiaosun ran out crying and said that I want to find you." Doctor, I said you couldn't wake up, so I came in to have a look. I saw you grabbing the corner of the quilt, crying loudly with your eyes closed, and you didn't know what to call. I had to give you two slaps, and you woke up."

Zian touched his cheek, and there was burning pain.

"It's so strange to say, this dream is so real." Zian thought of everything in the dream, but still had lingering fears in his heart, "I dreamed that I was giving birth, and you and Rou Yao were both there, but Lao Qi was not there. I heard you whispering in my ear that Lao Qi's life or death is uncertain now, and told me to hold on, and then Nanny Yang poured the medicine powder into me, and then I was born."

"It's just a dream." Hu Huanxi breathed a sigh of relief, but she also felt a little surprised. She had dreamed this before, but she had never fallen into a dream, and she couldn't wake up no matter what.

Zi'an lifted the quilt and stood up, feeling that her feet had no strength at all, and her whole body was dizzy. When she stepped on the ground, it was as if she was stepping on cotton, and she almost fell down.

Hu Huanxi hurriedly supported her, "You better not get up, just lie down."

Zian sat on the edge of the bed and looked outside, "What time is it?"

"It's noon!" Hu Huan said happily.

"I've been sleeping for so long?" Zian patted his head, wondering if it was too... Now his whole body is sore, and he has no strength at all.

"Are you sick?" Hu Huanxi put his hand on her forehead, "I don't have a fever either."

"I'm fine, maybe this nightmare is too real, I can't recover." Zian didn't want her to worry too much, so he forced a smile.

"You lie down, the prince probably didn't come back so soon, the capital is very lively, everyone is welcoming him back, everyone said, this time, the prince regent is a great hero."

Hu Huanxi said this, but she was not particularly happy. Instead, she frowned.

Zi'an also smiled wryly, "When things are extreme, they will be reversed. Such prestige may not be a good thing."

"Who says it's not? With a suspicious emperor on the table, plus the fact that the prince was in power before and the people's aspirations, and now he has made great achievements, I'm afraid this favor and limelight will be temporary."

Zian's heart panicked for no reason.

The two were silent for a while, and Zi'an said, "It's nothing, it's still the same sentence, soldiers come to cover the water and earth."

Hu Huanxi burst out laughing, "This sentence has become your mantra."

"Is there any way?" Zian shrugged helplessly, "Once this happened, there was no time to stop. I can never predict what they will do to me next."

"That's right, it's a mess." Hu Huanxi sighed softly, "My elder sister, since entering the palace, the people in her room have become arrogant, especially my cousin, who is now very serious."

"Need help?" Zi'an asked.

Hu Huanxi shook her head, "I don't need it for now, I will find you when I need it."

Zi'an knew about the affairs of the family house, and most others could not intervene, but Hu Huanxi helped her a lot, if she really needed help, he had to help her no matter what.

Hu Huanxi said: "Actually, I just don't want the old man to be disappointed. This family has to be supported by someone. The family business is too big."

"The emperor married Hu Huanling for a very clear purpose, that is, to get money from the Hu family. You have to be strict." Zi'an said.

Hu Huanxi waved his hand, "To be honest, I don't care if I can get paid with money, but the emperor's appetite is not small. Now that the big house is in use, I heard that my uncle is going to be promoted to an official position. He is now high-spirited, but , the vision has always been too short, and I haven't seen the emperor's true intentions thoroughly."

"The Hu family has been in business for many years. Although they are the richest man, the status of a businessman has always been inferior to that of an official. Now that they can jump over the dragon's gate, why not get dizzy? I'm afraid it will implicate you in the future." Zi'an couldn't help sighing.

Hu Huanxi nodded, "You don't need to worry on my side. Take care of yourself first. Now that the seventh child is back, I think you can live a stable life in two or three months, but after that..."

Hu Huanxi didn't speak clearly, but Zian knew it.

Now that Lao Qi has made meritorious service, the emperor will definitely not do anything to him for the time being, and even will continue to give him gifts.

Moreover, the emperor had to buy time to treat his illness.

Now just waiting for Xia Lin to be rescued, they can live a stable life for a month or two.

Xiaosun arranged the food, and Hu Huanxi ate some with him. After eating, Zian felt much more comfortable, but his face was still very ugly.

Hu Huanxi said: "Do you want to lie down for a while?"

"No, let's go for a walk." Zi'an said.

"Okay, I'll accompany you!"

Zian saw that his face was pale from the bronze mirror, so he put on makeup. Seeing Hu Huanxi looking at her all the time, he smiled and said, "I rarely put on makeup in my previous life, and I was on missions for at least three hundred days a year."

"Previous life... a long time ago." Hu Huanxi said.

"Yeah, it's been a long time ago." Zian blinked and smiled, "Do you think it's better to worry in ancient times or in modern times?"

Hu Huanxi thought for a while, "I don't even worry about it."

"Yes, I don't worry about it. It can be seen that it is really not easy to live, and it is even more difficult to live well."

As soon as Zi An finished speaking, a voice sounded, "Why is it not easy?"

A blue figure flashed in from the door.

The two looked over, who is it if it's not Rou Yao?

Zian quickly stood up and hugged her, "It's great that you're back."

Rou Yao's nose was stuffy, "I didn't expect you to care about me so much. If I had known, you wouldn't have married my cousin, you would have married me."

The words were said with a smile, as if making fun of them, but they were also really touching.

Zian thumped her, "No seriousness."

"Serious, how serious is it?" Rou Yao said with a smile.

Zian looked at her, mist formed in his eyes, "Is the injury all healed?"

"It's okay, everything is fine." Rou Yao looked at Hu Huanxi, and changed the sad topic, "I know that the palace is busy today, are you here to please the drink?"

Hu Huanxi smiled and said: "Isn't it? The emperor must have rewarded you today. Let me take a look and see if there are any good things that I can take away."

Rou Yao laughed uncontrollably, "Shameless, do you have any good things from the Hu family? You still miss the reward from this poor palace."

"Then what's the matter? After all, it's a royal gift, baby, I'll keep it for my descendants, it's a family heirloom."

Rou Yao laughed even harder, "Look at you? I don't know how to be ashamed. A woman who hasn't left the court is thinking about her children and grandchildren. Could it be that she has a crush on her?"

"No!" Hu Huanxi denied it.

"Nonsense, you and the Night King are clearly... huh!" Rou Yao teased.

"You're talking nonsense!" Hu Huanxi's face turned red.

Zian watched the two quarreling, and felt indescribably happy, it's so good, if life is always like this, how great it is!
