After two days of calm and calm, in the early morning of the third day, I looked up at the sky, gray and gray, but it didn't look like it was going to rain.

Seeing that Cui'er was busy in the front yard, carefully putting the medicinal herbs she had been exposed to outside for the past two days into the house, she frowned and looked up at the sky again.

Before she could ask, Cui'er had already found out that she was dressed as a going out, and hurriedly rushed to her and hurriedly said, "Princess, you can't go out today, I'm afraid the sandstorm is coming in the past two days." ”

The word "windstorm" is not unfamiliar, and it can often be heard in the 21st century, but at that time it was called sandstorm, which means the same thing anyway.

However, although the sky was gloomy, it didn't look as terrifying as the approaching sandstorm.

She pursed her lips and asked, "You didn't receive the wrong message, are you?" Are you sure the sandstorm is really coming?"

"That's what everyone said, the head of Hualing Garden has instructed the masters in the garden not to go out as much as possible in the past two days, because I don't know when the sandstorm will come, maybe tonight, or maybe tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, but it will definitely come. ”

Qiqi looked up at the drowsy piece above her head again, she didn't know when she would come, it could be tonight or the day after tomorrow, but tomorrow was the night of the full moon, Chu Xuanchi's cold poison would attack tomorrow night, and she still had some medicinal herbs that she hadn't prepared.

"Well, I'll be back soon, okay?" she said.

"No, princess, it's too dangerous for you to go out now, what if the sandstorm comes?"

If you encounter this on the road, there is a real possibility that you will not be able to come back.

"Didn't you say it's going to be tonight at the earliest?"

"The slave didn't say that it would be tonight at the earliest, the slave just said that it might be tonight or tomorrow. Cui'er was a little anxious, seeing that her face was relaxed and she didn't take this matter to heart at all, her face sank and she said seriously: "Princess, don't look down on the sandstorm in Chu State, it is said that there are not a hundred people who die in the sandstorm every year, but also ninety-nine, princess, you can't take it lightly." ”

"I know I'm going to come back as soon as I can. "She must come out of this door, otherwise she won't be able to find the medicine.

Early the day before yesterday, the people in the Xuanwang Mansion came to ask her what she needed, and after making a list for them, someone sent all the things she wanted at noon, but there were only two kinds of herbs.

Because the two herbs are too ordinary, if they are not combined with other herbs, they don't have much medicinal value at all, and they can't even be found in the medicine shops in the imperial city for a while.

They had already ordered people to go out of the city to look for other places, but for the sake of insurance, Qiqi still felt that he had to make a trip himself.

I heard that there are these two kinds of medicines in Mowolf Mountain, and they can only be freshly picked to exert the greatest effect, so she decided to go out to find them today.

From here to Mowolf Mountain, it is only four or five hours to ride back and forth on horseback, and it should be in time.

Taking out a bit of broken silver from her bosom and handing it to Cui'er, she said, "Find a way to find me a good horse." ”

"Princess, do you know how to ride a horse?" Cui'er was still unsure and unwilling.

"Understand, hurry up, otherwise it will delay my trip back. ”

Knowing that she had to go out, Cui'er had to obediently run to the manager's place, and when she came back, she really led a tall horse, but she had followed the princess for so many years, when had she ever seen her ride a horse?

"I used to go to the Jockey Club a lot, but horseback riding is just a pediatric, so don't worry. Not noticing that she didn't understand her words, she waved her hand, came to the horse's side and rubbed its mane, and only after getting acquainted with the horse did she pull the reins, step on the stirrups and leap lightly, and sit neatly on the horse's back.

"Pack your things and I'll be back soon. Dropping these words, she grabbed the horse's belly and led the horse to the front door of Hualing Garden.

Staring at her dusty back, Cui'er was anxious and surprised, she had served her for so many years, and she really didn't know where she learned this riding skill.

What's more, looking at this neat and agile movements, she is even better than ordinary people, this seventh princess, if she is not particularly familiar with her body, she will definitely suspect that she is being impersonated by someone now, and the original seventh princess is not the same person at all.

There were two guards guarding the gate as usual, and when they saw that someone was going out, the two wanted to stop them, because the chief manager had instructed them to try not to let the masters of Hualing Garden go out if it was unnecessary for the past two days.

But as soon as it seemed that the person was the seventh princess of Nanmu Kingdom, the two stopped and let her ride out.

After she walked away, one of them smiled and said, "These seven princesses are out of the door, maybe something will happen tonight, I will go and send this news to the sixth princess." ”

"Good. The other person also looked excited, looking at the direction in which Qiqi had gone, and a happy light flashed in his eyes.

Others may not know the gap between the sixth princess and the seventh princess, but how can the two who have been particularly "favored" by the sixth princess not know?

The sixth princess hates the seventh princess so much, as long as something happens to the seventh princess outside, the sixth princess will definitely be very happy, and when she is happy, she will definitely reward them more.

These people didn't know what they were thinking, and even if they knew, they wouldn't take it to heart, so they galloped all the way with their horses, and in less than two hours, they left the imperial city and ran all the way to Mowolf Mountain.

She had just stepped out of the city gate with her front foot, and she left with no dust, and Chu Xuan, who had been out for two days, entered the imperial city with her back foot.

He was still dressed in dark clothes, but he looked like a dusty servant, and it was obvious that these two people ran a lot.

Dongfang Ming, who had been waiting at the city gate, hurriedly greeted him, rode a horse to him, leaned over and saluted, "Lord Wang." ”

Chu Xuanchi nodded, went out for two days, and when he returned to the imperial city at this time, the first thing he did was not to think about going back to the Beiwang Mansion, but to think of the villain in Hualing Garden first.

The night was in such a hurry that she didn't have time to ask her about many things.

More importantly, in the two days he left, did she always toss and turn at night like herself?

But this thought was just a flash in his mind, such a small thing never hung on his heart for too long, and it was rare for him to remember it.

Returning to the Beiwang Mansion without saying a word, Chu Xuanchi went directly into the study, swept through the letters sent from various places in the past two days, and wrote back to the important ones, and then turned out the record book of the last ten years of marching and fighting, and flipped through it for a whole day.

I didn't leave the study until nightfall, and when I looked up, I saw that the night was getting darker and darker, and there was not even a little moonlight, it was dull and dreary, and it was obvious that this time the sandstorm was more violent than everyone expected.

The wind and sand have been blowing since after noon, and by this time it is already flying sand, and it is really not suitable to go out at this time, but if he does not go to Hualing Garden, he is afraid that tonight will be like the past two nights, and he will not even be able to sleep well.

In the past, it was just a little lighter sleep, and it was not enough to toss and turn, but after enjoying a sound sleep next to Murong Qiqi, the night without her would actually be insomnia.

As if he had been poisoned, he wanted to ask her for an antidote at night, if he didn't know his physical condition very well, he might really suspect that Murong Qiqi had drugged him.

After returning to the side hall for dinner, bathing and changing, Chu Xuanchi changed into a simple robe and was about to go out.

Dongfang Ming, who had been guarding the door, stepped forward to his side and said hurriedly: "Lord, the wind and sand have become bigger, do you still want Hualing Yuan to find the Seventh Princess?"

Compared to when he entered the bedroom just now, the wind and sand are now a lot bigger, and ordinary people dare not go out at all, although his martial arts are profound and his body is strong, but it is not suitable to take risks in the wind and sand, if he encounters any accidents......

Chu Xuanchi's eyes were slightly gloomy, and he was not surprised that he knew that he was looking for Murong Qiqi, Dongfang Ming was his most powerful assistant, and he was naturally clear about his every move.

He also knew very well that in the past two times he had looked for Murong Qiqi, Dongfang Ming had been following behind him, and he would not leave until he entered the Dustless Pavilion safely.

He nodded and walked up the steps, "It's not a lot of wind and sand tonight, so you don't need an escort." ”

Dongfang Ming hurriedly chased after him again, and hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, it's better to wait for this wind and sand to pass, and then ......."

"How many days do you think this wind and sand will blow?" he hadn't slept for two days in a row, and he didn't want to spend the night tossing and turning again.

Dongfang Ming has nothing to say, this wind and sand will blow for three or five days, and the prince will wait for three or five days, he can't say this kind of thing.

"Then can the prince wait a while, and his subordinates will bring you an umbrella. That's the only luxury he has now.

Chu Xuanchi was unwilling to wait, but in order to prevent him from muttering and muttering something unnutritious to stop him, he had to wait patiently for a moment.

A moment later, Dongfang Ming respectfully handed the bone umbrella to him.

Seeing him open his umbrella and walk in the wind and sand, he sent him all the way out, originally wanted to beg him to let him follow, but suddenly remembered what he saw at the city gate today, he couldn't help but say: "These seven princesses are also strange, everyone has been in a hurry to the city in the past two days, she knows that there is a sandstorm and still wants to go out of the city, and her courage is really not small." ”

"What did you say?" Chu Xuan stopped and looked back at him, his face sank unconsciously: "You said she went out of the city today?"

Suddenly, I remembered that when he was sleeping in a daze that night, he seemed to have heard her say that she would go to Mowolf Mountain to collect medicine and make medicinal soup for him in two days.

Mo Wolf Mountain is a certain distance from the imperial city, even if she goes out early in the morning, it is not easy to rush back before nightfall, not to mention how fast can she be a weak woman?

If you can't come back in time at night, you will be trapped in the wind and sand......

For some reason, a little anxiety flashed in his heart, he didn't say anything more, he stepped forward and stepped on the breeze, this time he actually performed the supreme light skill that he had never used before, and rushed all the way to Linghuayuan.

The speed of walking is too fast, even Dongfang Ming can't catch up if he wants to.

is so anxious, people who don't know still think that something important happened, and the prince seems to be ...... to the seventh princess of Hualing Garden. I care too much.
