Lou Yueqing sat behind the table, looking at the flying pigeon book that Rong Zhi passed to her, her brows furrowed.

Rong Zhi would give her a flying pigeon almost every two days, most of them urged her to go back, and asked her where she was, yes, since she left Liyang to go to Jinling, she didn't tell him where she was, just sent the news back on time to report her safety.

Thinking about it, he must have been in a hurry, and every day during this time, a flying pigeon message was delivered, and every flying pigeon book was asking where she was.

Now Chu Guo has calmed down a lot because of his return, but Lou Yueqing doesn't know how this is just a calm surface but an undercurrent is surging, if he knows where she is, he will definitely find it, although he didn't explicitly say that he didn't allow her to play and relax with Xiao Tianhuang first, but it was also because he was in Chu Jing, and he couldn't change her decision, so she could only let her go, but now that it has been more than two months, she doesn't know where she is, how can she rest assured.

Xue Zhen escorted the person who replaced her back to Chujing before, but it was just a trick, and after arriving in Chujing, she couldn't hide it, so it was not a secret that she was still outside, there must be many people looking for her in secret, and there were people who planned to kill her or arrest her, and it was normal for him to be uneasy.

However, he can't come to her, he has been leaving Chu State for her for several months, so that those people can take the opportunity to collude and plot against her, and now if he leaves again, I'm afraid it will be bad, but she doesn't know when she will be able to go back, although Xiao Tianhuang is now more cheerful than before, but she can't just leave her here alone.

At least not yet.

Sighing, Lou Yueqing took the paper on the side, picked up the pen, and replied to Rong Zhi.

Rong Zhi received her reply, and saw a few sentences on the paper, but simply explained that she was now in a safe place, and the return date was uncertain, so that he didn't have to worry, there were two words at the back, read the same!

She misses him too.

But Rong Zhi was not very happy, but his face was even more gloomy.

She is not by his side, no matter how safe she is, he is not at ease, not to mention, after more than two months of separation, he really misses her.

He looked at the dark eyes and asked, "You haven't found the whereabouts of the princess yet?"

Shen Shu said in a low voice: "The prince forgives the sin, his subordinates have sent a lot of secret guards to look for it, and they also sent news to Xuan Ying and Xuan Yue and the people of Ling Xiao Pavilion are also looking for it, but the princess seems to be deliberately hiding her traces, and her whereabouts cannot be traced at all!"

When Rong Zhi heard this, his face became more and more condensed.

Shen Shu said again: "But don't worry, the prince can't find so many people sent by the palace and Lingxiao Pavilion, and it is impossible for others to find the princess, the princess should be safe!"

Originally, the princess was not one of those weak women who had no power to restrain the chicken, not only was she smart, but she was also as strong as the princess, and the princess herself had such a powerful force, if she deliberately hid her traces, who would have the ability to find her.

How could Rong Zhi not know this, but even if he knew that those people couldn't find her and couldn't hurt her, he couldn't really rest assured, she never knew how to be kind to herself, plus the cold poison on her body, she was not by his side, he was always worried, if he knew that she would run to wander the rivers and lakes first, he would definitely not come back first.

After a moment of silence, he said lightly: "Send more people to find her, be sure to find her as soon as possible!"

Shen Shu immediately received the order: "Yes!"

"Stand down!"

"Subordinates retire!"

He waved his hands and stepped back.

Rong Zhi stood up at this time, walked a few steps under the windowsill, looked at the lake outside and the eaves of the lake, his eyes were slightly condensed.

She wasn't there, she felt that the house was empty, and she didn't have any popularity at all.

Missing, it's really grinding.

In the blink of an eye, Lou Yueqing had been living in Ruoshui for ten days. Living in the valley these days, the days are peaceful.

Every day, she either teaches Xiao Tinghuang to practice swords and martial arts, or plays chess and music with her, she strokes the piano, Xiao Tinghuang blows the flute, and the cooperation is very in tune, when she is not free, it is Mo Li who teaches Xiao Tinghuang to identify medicinal materials and learn basic medical skills, such days after days, Lou Yueqing does not see irritability at all, but her mood is getting heavier and heavier day by day.

Because in recent days, in addition to receiving Rong Zhi's letters every day, there are also letters sent to her by her people about the current situation of the Chu State.

Although she was not in Chu during this time, she had always known about the situation in Chu State, and it was impossible for Rong Zhi to tell her, but her people had always sent messages to her to inform her of the situation in Chu State.

Just a few days ago, her people wrote that there was a civil unrest in Anzhou in the western region of Chu State, it is said that it was because of the long-term drought and no rain in that area this year, resulting in a large shortage of food, and even many places were not harvested, and the people were miserable, and there was a famine, the government not only did not report to the imperial court, but concealed it, and forced to collect taxes.

Now the court is inseparable from Rong Zhi, Lou Yichen was ordered to replace Rong Zhi to inspect military affairs in various places a month ago, King Shen was sent to Anzhou for disaster relief to appease the people, Qin Xiang was stripped of power, Xining Wangfu has a different heart, King Wei is unwilling to bow down to the ministers and is already ambitious to rebel and restore the country's name, Dongyou frequently transfers troops, and keeps sending spies into Chu State, but these people secretly have collusion, and it is not a quick knife to cut the mess can be removed, the so-called pull a hair and move the whole body, Rong Zhi naturally can't be unscrupulous, must be very irritable and embarrassed.

Her people came to report that there were many people secretly pursuing her whereabouts recently, including the people from the Regent's Mansion and Lingxiao Pavilion, who were sent by him to find her, and now he was busy with government affairs, and he was worried that she would spend manpower and effort to find her......

Lou Yueqing was so upset that she didn't notice that there was a person standing outside the door.

Xiao Tianhuang stood at the door, looking at Lou Yueqing with a struggling and embarrassed look, very irritable, her eyes were deep, her eyes were lowered, she removed a touch of different color from the bottom of her eyes, and stood for a moment, she did not go in, but turned to leave.

Lou Yueqing sat in the house for more than an hour, seeing a golden glow outside, the remnant sun in the sky was like blood, it was already evening, she waved away the troubles in her mind, stood up, walked out of the door, walked down the attic, and walked out.

When I walked out of the courtyard, I saw Xiao Tianhuang practicing swords in the open space in front of the courtyard.

Xiao Tinghuang's swordsmanship has begun to teach Lou Yueqing when she was in Liguo, although there have been a lot of delays in the middle, but Xiao Tinghuang has not given up, this way every day to spend an hour practicing swords, originally Xiao Tianhuang is very attained, learn things quickly, good memory, Lou Yueqing and teach her with all her heart, she learns quickly, if it is not because she has been picked off before, I am afraid she will learn better.

For this, Lou Yueqing is guilty, because she personally broke Xiao Tianhuang's muscles and almost killed her, so that she suffered a lot of sins in vain, although she was picked up by Mu Ke in time, but it still caused a great impact, even if daily life is not a problem, but it is not suitable to practice martial arts, let alone strength, I remember that when I first started practicing martial arts and practicing swords, Xiao Tianhuang also suffered a lot because of the injuries he had suffered, and he couldn't use his strength to lift the sword, let alone swing the sword, Lou Yueqing specially gave her a special wooden sword to give her less suffering, but Xiao Tianhuang said that he would not use a wooden sword anymore, and Lou Yueqing gave her a saber he carried, and also changed its name to Qinghuang Sword.

Looking at Xiao Tianhuang's figure swinging her sword freely, a smile crossed her eyes and she walked over.

Mo Li looked at Xiao Tianhuang from the side, and Mo Li had two other people beside him, they were Chi Peony and Qingling who were summoned by Lou Yueqing a few days ago, and the two maids who followed Duanmu Xi's side before, after Duanmu Xixi died, they returned to Langya Peak, and after Lou Yueqing came to Ruoshui, he ordered them to be found, the purpose was very simple, let them follow Xiao Tianhuang.

They can follow Duanmu Xi's side, naturally their martial arts are not bad, and they are almost the same as Mo Li, plus they have been with Duanmu Xixi all the year round, they are also proficient in medical skills, and they are also loyal to her, so let them stay by Xiao Tianhuang's side to protect and take care of Xiao Tianhuang, Lou Yueqing is very relieved.

As soon as she walked in, the three of them noticed that they turned around, and when they saw her, they immediately saluted respectfully.

"Master!"

"Palace Master!"

Lou Yueqing hummed lightly, looking at Xiao Tianhuang who was practicing swords in front of her, and when she was far away, Xiao Tinghuang swung her sword freely, but when she looked closely, Xiao Tinghuang's movements were still a little unneat and a little difficult.

After watching it for a while, after practicing a set of swordsmanship, Xiao Tianhuang stopped, already sweating profusely.

Lou Yueqing stepped forward, took out a handkerchief, and gently wiped the sweat on her forehead.

Xiao Tianhuang called her sister and let Lou Yueqing wipe her sweat.

After wiping the sweat on her face and forehead, Lou Yueqing said softly: "The clothes on my body are soaked with sweat, go and change them quickly, otherwise you will be in trouble if you feel the wind and cold!"

Xiao Tianhuang nodded obediently: "I'll go now!"

After speaking, he took the scabbard in Mo Li's hand, inserted the sword into it, and walked back briskly with the sword.

Red Peony and Qingling followed.

Lou Yueqing asked Mo Li, who watched Xiao Tianhuang practice swords every day, and asked softly, "How is she practicing now?"

Mo Li said in a low voice: "Miss learns quickly, but she has broken her tendons and veins before, and this sword is relatively heavy, so it is difficult to practice, if you want to practice this set of swordsmanship to perfection, I am afraid it will take a long time!"

Although Xiao Tianhuang has excellent talent, but her body is not good, breaking her muscles and veins before is affected after all, even if she is diligent and hard to practice day and night, it is useless, but it will backfire and hurt her muscles and bones, so now Xiao Tianhuang can only spend an hour practicing swords every day, and half of the time in this hour is used to do basic skills, and if you want to practice a set of swordsmanship, it will take at least one or two years.

Lou Yueqing listened to this, frowned and was silent, thoughtful.

Xiao Tianhuang quickly changed his clothes and came out.

Xiao Tianhuang walked up to her and smiled lightly: "Sister, let's go out for a walk!"

For her request, Lou Yueqing will never refuse: "Okay!"

Instructed Mo Li to prepare dinner for them, and the two sisters walked out along the path together.

Because there were many people working on the other side of the medicine field, they walked in the opposite direction, wandering aimlessly along the foot of the mountain.

Walking and walking, looking at the green trees and grass around him, Xiao Tianhuang smiled and sighed: "In Liguo before, it had already begun to snow at this time, but here it is like spring......"

In October, Liguo was already very cold.

Lou Yueqing heard this, nodded, and said with a smile: "It won't snow in this place, but it is estimated that it will be a little cold after a while, but the winter here is really different from that of Liguo!"

"Hmm...... It's grown so big, and I've never seen a winter without snow!"

It's the truth.

In the winter of Liguo, the north wind is howling with snow, and the cold one is called a biting bone, which can freeze people.

Lou Yueqing didn't speak.

She is afraid of the cold, Xiao Tinghuang is also afraid of the cold, this is very similar, but the reason for being afraid of the cold is different, she hates the cold because of the cold poison, and Xiao Tinghuang was imprisoned when she was a child, and she was afraid of the cold in winter, so she was afraid of the cold.

At this time, Xiao Tianhuang looked at her and said with a serious face: "Sister, I like it here!"

Lou Yueqing was stunned, I don't know why.

She looked at her sincerely, smiled lightly and said softly: "So, you go back, go back to Chujing, I will stay here well, you don't have to worry about me!"

Lou Yueqing's heart trembled, she looked at her in surprise, and moved her lips: "Huang'er......"

Xiao Tianhuang said softly: "I know that Chu Guo is not calm now, and my brother-in-law has been urging you to go back, and you often can't sleep at night looking in the direction of Chu Jing, you must also miss your brother-in-law, but because you don't worry about me, you can't bear to leave me here, and I'm afraid that I will be unhappy if you leave, so I have endured it, but sister, you can't accompany me for a lifetime, so, you go back!"

During this time of getting along day and night, she saw everything in her eyes, but she never said it, because she was reluctant, but how could she not understand, if she didn't say it, in order to take into account her feelings, my sister would not take the initiative to mention leaving her to stay here, but in this way, my sister would be very embarrassed.

She didn't want her sister to be embarrassed.

Lou Yueqing heard this, her eyes were slightly red, her eyes were moist, she wanted to say something, but she opened her mouth and couldn't say anything.

Xiao Tianhuang lowered his eyes, bit his lip slightly, and said in a low voice: "Actually, when I was in Gusu City, I wanted you to go back to Chujing, as long as you sent me to a place with mountains and rivers, but I always couldn't open my mouth when the words came to my mouth, I wanted you to spend more time with me, and I didn't want you to worry, but now it's very good here, I like it here, and it's safe to stay here, so my sister doesn't have to worry about me, you go back to Chujing, my brother-in-law is still waiting for you!"

Although she greedily wants Lou Yueqing to be by her side all the time to make up for the regret of the separation of her sisters in the past 20 years, she can't be so selfish, and she doesn't want to let their husband and wife separate because of her greed.

Lou Yueqing heard this, her nose was sour, her eyes were slightly astringent, she pursed her lips, she looked at Xiao Tianhuang and said softly: "Actually, if it is...... Sister still hopes that you can go back to Chujing with your sister!"

To tell the truth, she is also difficult to give up, the reason why she struggles is that in addition to being afraid that Xiao Tianhuang will be sad and uneasy, she is also reluctant, after all, she is her dearest sister, she gets along day and night for a few months, and now that she has a deep sisterhood, how can she give it up easily.

Moreover, Xiao Tianhuang's dependence on her, she knows it very well.

Xiao Tianhuang shook his head, and said: "No, it's already very good here, I've planned it, stay here first, practice martial arts and learn medical skills, and when I can't stay anymore, I'll go out and have a look, um......" As she spoke, she smiled slyly, and it was difficult to hide a touch of coquettishness between her eyebrows, and she teased: "Maybe I will go to Chujing to see my sister when the time comes!"
