Chapter 554 Exhale
Hua Jingyao left Jinyuan before she even walked to the flower room, she heard that Princess Zhaoyang had left the mansion.
At this time, where can I go?
It's not like going shopping.
This is to go to Mr. Hua San to discuss countermeasures, and then the unscrupulous parents gathered together to apologize for her unfilial piety.
Hua Jingyao shook her head. She heard that children aged 14 or 15 are the most difficult to manage, but she felt that women aged 30 are even more difficult to manage.
She is obviously only fourteen years old, but she is obviously the willful and rebellious one.
Hua Jingyao stroked her eyebrows. She really wanted to find someone to ask what to do if my mother at home was disobedient. Who knows? She was very anxious.
"Yaoyao, are you uncomfortable?"
A familiar voice came, and Chen Xiao had come out of the flower room at some point and was watching her not far away.
Hua Jingyao suddenly wanted to cry. Today is the day when she and Shen Xiao pierced the window paper. Peach blossoms were supposed to be dancing in the sky and butterflies were glorious, but now there is nothing.
"Xiao Li, I'm so angry."
Hua Jingyao didn't know why she called "Xiao Li". She hadn't called it like this for a long time.
Everyone in the Princess's Mansion knows that the little raccoon is now the pampered tabby cat in the embroidery garden.
"I'll take you to a place."
Maybe it was because she had been in the garden for a long time, and Chen Xiao was dyed with the fragrance of flowers. Hua Jingyao didn't know the fragrance, but she thought it smelled very nice, so she sniffed greedily.
“Where to go?”
"You will know when you arrive, but you have to change your clothes."
Hua Jingyao looked down and saw that what she was wearing was no longer the apricot yellow trouser she had when she entered the palace, but a lotus-colored little jacket she wore at home, and a moon-white thread-picking skirt on her lower body.
"Isn't this fit?"
"Do you have horse riding suit?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Yes, I'll go change it."
It turned out that he was going to ride a horse. Hua Jingyao returned to the embroidery garden and changed into a bright red horse riding outfit. She was about to ask someone to lead the horse, but Chen Xiao said, "Don't lead the horse, we will ride in the carriage."
Hua Jingyao was very strange and didn't ask much, and got on the carriage with Shen Xiao.
As soon as the two of them sat down, a shadow rushed up.
It's a big pillar.
Chen Xiao's face sank. He was about to bombard the big pillar, but Dazhuzi whimpered and shrank to Hua Jingyao's side. He put his big head on Hua Jingyao's legs, but his eyes glanced at him, ready to find someone to support him at any time.
Not only was Hua Jingyao not annoyed, she touched Dazhuzi's forehead instead.
Chen Xiao was patient.
These days, except for entering the palace, Hua Jingyao will bring Dazhuzi with him wherever he goes. Dazhuzi has long regarded himself as Hua Jingyao's dog.
Hua Jingyao originally thought Chen Xiao would take her out of the city, but after all, she changed into a horse-riding suit. She knew that there was a large village outside the city of Duke Yongguo’s Mansion.
But the carriage stopped shortly after leaving. Hua Jingyao lifted the curtain and saw that it was parked in front of the Duke of Yongguo's mansion.
She patted Dazhuzi on the back, Dazhuzi jumped out of the carriage first, stood at the door, and shouted with great might.
Immediately afterwards, I saw a little flower dog running over like a flying pillar and having fun around the big pillar. Two dogs, smell my butt, and I smell your butt, telling each other's hearts.
Hua Jingyao followed Chen Xiao into the Duke's Mansion and walked straight to the Martial Arts Hall.
There were eighteen weapons placed against the wall in the martial arts hall, and three sets of armor were placed in the center.
Although the armor is shiny, it can be seen that it has been a few years, especially the two oldest sets, with the knife marks on them clearly visible.
"All these are left by your ancestors?" Hua Jingyao asked.
"Well, the middle is the Duke of Min, the first generation of brave marquis; the left is Duke of Peng, who defeated the 100,000 Ola army with 50,000 troops and made great contributions to the Great Zhou; the right is Duke of Yan, who was the first Yongguo Duke of Yan, who once stationed in Yulin Guards and bravely fought against the enemy. After Xiaozong ascended the throne, he appointed him as Duke of Yong and was awarded a first-class title. He only fought one battle, so among these three pairs of armor, only his armor was intact."
Hua Jingyao looked carefully and found that Yan Gong's armor did not have any marks on his knife.
"Look at that side." Chen Xiao pointed to the other side of the Martial Arts Hall.
Hua Jingyao looked in the direction of his finger and saw three feet tall sandbags hanging there, and three dummies, and there were also arrow targets on the dummy.
Chen Xiao walked to the front of one of the sandbags and waved his hand and punched him.
He turned around and said to Hua Jingyao: "Do you want to vent your anger?"
Hua Jingyao's eyes lit up. She walked over and kicked her legs without saying a word.
She was wearing calfskin boots on her feet, and when she kicked her, the sandbag actually shook.
Hua Jingyao was in a good mood and clenched her fists and waved her up, but when she continued to hit her, she shook her hand in pain.
Chen Xiao hurried forward, picked up her hand and looked at it. Fortunately, he didn't use much force, and his hands were not red or swollen.
"Ping An, go and bring that pair of cowhide gloves!"
This pair of gloves was made of several layers of cowhide, which was extremely thick. Hua Jingyao took the gloves and looked over and over again. She had never seen this thing before.
"Xiang Bo said that this was worn by my mother. My mother is a hot-tempered person and will get angry at any time. Later, my father added these three sandbags to the martial arts hall to vent her anger." Chen Xiao's voice was gentle and he said in a gentle manner.
Hua Jingyao was very interested in hearing this, and seemed to see a woman wearing cowhide gloves and punching and kicking at the sandbag.
She couldn't help but smile, but as soon as the smile rose, she remembered that Chen Xiao had never seen his father or his mother before.
He learned everything about his parents from others.
Therefore, he usually doesn't like to live in the Duke's Mansion. There are traces of his parents everywhere. However, he has never seen them and cannot do anything for them. He has not even avenged them yet.
"I'm sorry, I reminded you of these things." Hua Jingyao said.
Chen Xiao carefully put the gloves on her, patted her head gently, and said with a smile: "Go and have all your unhappiness."
"Well, let's go together and see who is tired first." Hua Jingyao raised her little face with a bright smile on her face.
The two of them each hit a sandbag, and you punched me and I, sweating profusely. I don’t know how long it took, Hua Jingyao sat on the ground. She supported her upper body with her arms, forcing herself to lie down: “I lost, I’m exhausted, ahhhh, so happy!”
Chen Xiao sat next to her and rushed over to hand over the veil.
Chen Xiao took the veil and said softly: "Close your eyes."
Hua Jingyao pursed her lips and closed her eyes.
There was silence around, so quiet that only each other could hear their breathing. Chen Xiao picked up the veil and gently wiped away the sweat beads from Hua Jingyao's forehead. Then he went down from his forehead, which was her eyes, her nose bridge, her cheeks, her lips...
