If you want to go so far, what if there is a three-long and two-short one along the way? Du Qiniang is really worried.

"Mother, rest assured, there are more than 20 envoys and more than 50 guards with strong martial arts to accompany me." Hee Zhen patted the back of her hand and said.

"But the rivers and lakes are sinister, and it is impossible to prevent them." Du Qi Niang held her hand tightly and said.

"Mother, I still have this." Hee-jin smiled and pointed to his head.

"Yes, we know you are smart, but there are some things that can not be done only by being smart." Du Qiniang was still worried.

"Mother, I'll have good luck, every time I encounter danger, don't I end up in danger?"

Du Qi Niang thought about it, and it was indeed the same.

Hearing Xi Zhen's words, Du Qiniang knew that she had made up her mind, so she had to nod her head and agree. But I'm still a little worried about it.

'Beyond the Central Plains'! It's exciting to think about it, but it's just a thought, and it's really a luxury to be there.

Tens of thousands of miles away, I don't know how many beautiful scenery and dangerous desperate situations to pass along the way, so the long-distance test is not only physical, endurance, intelligence, but also the ability to adapt and survive, everyone can not imagine how many risks Xizhen has to go through along the way, so I admire her courage more and more.

And this is Shen Xizhen, she dares to think what others dare not think, and she dares to do what others dare not do, it seems that there will never be boundaries in her heart, so outsiders will never see her limits.

Chu Zihou was thinking about Xizhen's mission to Gan and Shiguo at night, and the more he thought about it, the more afraid he became. She was as precious and conspicuous as the pearl of morning dew, and he was worried about her safety.

After thinking about it for a night, he immediately went to wait for her on the road where she was going to go to Zichen Hall the next day.

There is a gazebo on this road.

Chu Zihou sat in the pavilion. pretended to be looking at the scenery, but in fact, she was paying attention to the other side of the road all the time, waiting for her slender figure to appear.

Since she doesn't have to go to the Xiyi Hall to lecture on the scriptures now, she usually enters the palace in the early days of Emperor Guangzhao, that is, when the sun has just risen to three poles.

In early spring, the grass grows and the warbler flies, and the flowers around the courtyard bloom very brightly. The scent wafted into his nose in the wind, which was supposed to be very beautiful and pleasant, but he seemed worried because of something on his mind. So I didn't pay attention to these things at all.

In the process of waiting for her arrival, he realized that he was so afraid of losing her, and he admired her so much.

"I must be as strong as I can, otherwise what will I do to protect her?" He asked himself in his heart.

Once again, he panicked at his own powerlessness in something.

For Chu Zihou, this panic is the fear that he does not have enough ability to protect her. And now. Obviously. Her actions were beyond his ability to protect, so he told himself - I must get stronger, as fast as possible.

Hee-jin was a little surprised to see him waiting for him here, but soon felt that it made sense.

She walked over to him. Because she walked a little fast, her flower skirt fluttered in the wind, and her steps became lighter and lighter.

"You shouldn't have slept last night, right? The eyes are red. She asked with concern, her distress palpable.

"I'm nothing. I'm just a little worried about you. Ah Zhen, why don't you disguise yourself as a man when you're not on the road. It's safer and you can change back into women's clothes when you're about to get there, so there's nothing wrong with that. ”

"It's a wonderful idea, and I'll do what you want." Xizhen said with a smile. In fact, she had already thought about it when she wanted to dress as a man on the road. But she prefers to give him credit for the idea.

Seeing that she recognized his Jianyì, he was very happy, and the worry in his heart suddenly alleviated a lot.

Of course, he knew that the clever Hee-jin must have thought of this solution, but he still wanted to make sure that it would be safer.

"Remember our Plum Garden appointment last spring?" Chu Zihou asked her softly.

Xizhen's face turned red and nodded slightly. Of course, she didn't forget that date, and his gentle and domineering kiss.

"Tomorrow is your day off, let's get together in the plum garden, there should be some plum blossoms there." Chu Zihou said.

Seeing the red glow flying on her face, he knew that she remembered last year's events again, and his heart was sweet.

They have been very busy this year, and it has been a long time since they have had a good time with her, and seeing that she is about to go to another country, he wants to take advantage of this appointment in the plum garden to say goodbye to her.

She said, "Okay, then we'll see you later." ”

With her permission, Chu Zihou went back satisfied.

………………………

Since I have an appointment tomorrow, I was in a good mood all day.

She talked to Emperor Guangzhao about several important things, played three more songs with him, and returned to her mansion when the sun was setting in the west.

As soon as she entered the door, Du Qiniang beckoned to her, as if she had a secret to tell.

Xi Zhen hurriedly walked towards her with the hem of her skirt.

"Your second brother replied, I haven't opened it yet, since you wrote it to him, it's up to you to open it." Du Qiniang handed her a blue letter printed with flowers, birds, insects and fish.

"Okay." Xi Zhen thought of the question she had written to her second brother, and immediately opened it with great anticipation.

Sure enough, in addition to greeting everyone, Shen Xicong focused on replying to the questions she asked...... I understand that little girl's thoughts, and I thank her for her care and affection for me all the time, but I am afraid that I will still have to live up to her affection. She should find someone who knows how to care and love her better than me, so please help me convey my intentions to her, if I break her heart because of this, I feel very sorry, and I will definitely apologize to her personally when I go back next time. ”

His words were already evident - he wanted Xiang'er to stop this affection for him.

Hee Zhen held the letter in his hand and pondered for a moment.

Seeing her solemn expression, Du Qiniang hurriedly asked, "What did Cong'er say?" ”

Hee-jin handed her the letter.

After reading this letter, Du Qiniang suddenly realized: "No wonder, although I noticed it before, I didn't think deeply about it, or you got quick results." ”

It's just that I don't know how Xiang'er will react when she learns this result, but the girl is very cautious on the surface. Tell her about it. Du Qiniang continued.

"Uh-huh, I'll go talk to her now." Hee Zhen got up and went back to the study.

"Go and call Xiang'er to my study." Xizhen said to his subordinates.

The subordinate immediately took the order and left.

Xiang'er and Pepper were packing up their books for a day in the open space in the west courtyard.

Hearing that Xizhen was looking for her, Xiang'er knew that it should be Shen Xicong's reply and hurried to Xizhen's study. (To be continued......)
