Chapter 268: Sit and Wait to Die

The capital city in the north is an ancient city that is said to have a history of 1,000 years and is called Chang'an City.

At this moment, Xuanyuan Qi was in the specially vacated Chang'an Mansion in Chang'an City, and a smart woman next to him was skillfully taking care of him in the place of listening to the song.

Xuanyuan Qi looked at the map in his hand, and when his brows were deeply furrowed, he suddenly sneezed.

His hand paused, and his nose was stuffed, and it was very uncomfortable.

"Listen to the song!" Xuanyuan Qi shouted outside.

The woman turned around, smiled at Xuanyuan, and said in a gentle tone: "I heard that Gongzi Ge followed the king of the Northern Domain to relieve the disaster, is there something wrong with the six princes?" ”

Xuanyuan Qi glanced up, frowned, and said coldly, "Why are you still here?" ”

The woman put down the boiled medicine in her hand and said: "I heard that when the singer went out, he said that I would wait for the six princes to finish drinking the boiled medicine, and I saw that the six princes kept looking at the map, so it was not good to disturb and clean up the house for the six princes." ”

"You go out, you don't need it here. Tell you the king of the Northern Domain, in the future, I will not be allowed to enter my house casually. Xuanyuan Qi's eyes were always locked on the map, and he gave the eviction order without even looking at the woman.

The woman was obviously stunned, but there was a hint of a smile on her delicate and weak face: "Sixth Prince, my name is Xuanyuan Lingzhu, please write down my name." Saying that, he turned around and left, but before leaving, he brought the medicine jar that had been placed on the stove to Xuanyuan Qi and said, "If the six princes don't want to continue like this, I will still drink this medicine." After saying that, he put down the medicine and left.

Xuanyuan Qi raised his eyebrows, glanced at the black medicine in the medicine jar next to him, shook his head in the end, and drank it in one go, the bitter smell of medicine choked on his nose, which made him suddenly remember that after feeding Li Changqing the medicine last time, he gave her a sweet candied fruit, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but bend.

Then he walked to the table and tried to find a candied fruit to eat, but found nothing. Just as he was about to turn around, a pair of slender and white hands reached out in front of him, and said with a smile: "I forgot to bring a box of candied fruit just now, presumably the medicine is too bitter, and the six princes are not used to it, so I brought it over on my own initiative." ”

Xuanyuan's evil eyes brought a trace of doubt, and then probed, and then, just for a moment, he returned to normalcy and said: "I repeat, in the future, without the permission of this prince, don't enter and leave here at will." ”

After speaking, he did not reach out to take the box of candied fruits, and got up and returned to his seat.

Xuanyuan Lingzhu was not annoyed, but smiled lightly, put the box on the table, and then walked to his table and took the medicine jar out. When I went out, I thoughtfully closed the door again.

After a day, Xuanyuan Qi suddenly asked Tingge, "Who was that Xuanyuan Lingzhu from the Northern Domain King last time?" Although Xuanyuan Lingzhu didn't say anything about her family background, but those who can be surnamed Xuanyuan, except for the people around the King of the Northern Domain, no one dares to call himself Xuanyuan.

"She is the daughter of the king of the Northern Domain, and I heard that she is proficient in poetry, poetry and painting, and has an excellent temperament, and she can be regarded as a talented woman. In recent years, I have heard that the wealthy nobles who come to the door to propose marriage are about to step on the threshold of the king of the Northern Domain, and the king of the Northern Domain is still ....... ”

"Okay, I've got you to say so much?" Xuanyuan Qi raised his eyebrows, his eyebrows were cold, and a faint sneer appeared on his thin lips.

Listening to the song, he was interrupted by the master, and he smashed his tongue so much that he didn't dare to say more.

"Is there any news from Cold Shadow today?" Xuanyuan Qi asked with some eagerness. I've been here for so long, and I think about her all the time. He was still a little remorseful, knowing that he was missing now, and he should take the initiative to show her favor before leaving.

Now this relationship, what if the relationship between the two becomes more and more stalemate after going back?

"Back to my lord, the news from Hanying hasn't come today. Yesterday, I said that Miss Li and Zhu Gongzi had dinner at the Phoenix Restaurant a few times recently, and Han Ying also said ....... Listening to the song, I subconsciously closed my mouth, and I missed my mouth when I was talking.

"Say what?" Xuanyuan Qi's voice rose suddenly, making him shudder after listening to the song, but he still said it.

Han Ying said, looking at the princes and Miss Li, the relationship is very close, and ...... also said that the third prince also goes to the Li Mansion every day, and always uses the excuse to find Miss Li...... "Listening to the song, I don't know whether I am alive or dead, and I added the next sentence, and after speaking, I took the initiative to step back three feet.

Sure enough, Xuanyuan Qi exuded a cold breath all over his body, and said in a cold tone: "What else did Hanying say?" ”

"This ......, master, that...... I mentioned it in the letter to Qinglian about Xuanyuan Lingzhu taking care of you, I wonder if Miss Li knows? ”

"When?" Xuanyuan Qi's eyes moved slightly.

"It's when I couldn't eat two days ago, I looked anxious, and it happened that there was a messenger back to Beijing, so I asked me to bring a letter over ......."

"Ask Hanying, how did she react?"

Listening to the song, he was about to say that today's news had not yet arrived, and a carrier pigeon landed outside, and he flew away, grabbed the carrier pigeon, and took out the note.

This pigeon has a small physique and hard wings, and can fly for three days and three nights without eating or drinking, and it takes only half a day to travel thousands of kilometers. However, you can only bring small notes and other things, such as the letter written to Qinglian by listening to the song, because it is too large to be transmitted by carrier pigeons, so you can only use the post house.

Don't dare to slack off listening to the song, the master told Han Ying not to let go of Miss Li's every expression, but on this small note, it was bitter for the cold shadow, and every time he sent a letter, he had to consider the words for a long time.

Listening to the song, I hurriedly untied the note and gave it to the master.

Xuanyuan Qi opened it and saw a line of words:

Reading the letter, I didn't respond coldly, and we waited for half a sound, but I didn't see him laughing.

Cold? Don't see a smile?

You're really ruthless! Xuanyuan Qi clenched the note, and a frost appeared on his face.

"How much grain is left?" Xuanyuan Qi suddenly asked.

Listening to the song, I didn't know what the master saw, and I felt that the temper of the master seemed to come up again, so he hurriedly lowered his head and replied: "There are still twenty tuns." ”

"It can't go on like this, the food is dead, fixed, and a little less every day. And the number of people affected by the disaster is living, and the number is increasing every day, and if this continues, they can only sit and wait for death. Xuanyuan Qi analyzed. Even though he was very annoyed now, he had to speed up the disaster relief process in order to go back as much as he could.

"What do you mean?" Listening to the song, I feel that what the master said is very right, if it goes on like this, they will only sit and wait for death, and they don't know when they will return to Shangjing? To be honest, he hasn't seen Qinglian for almost a month, and he really misses it so much.

"Let them do it themselves, according to the map, you see here, to the south of Chang'an City, there is a large area of basin where sorghum can be grown. Sorghum is resistant to drought and waterlogging, has strong resistance to high temperatures, and needs a lot of sunlight to grow, and this weather is the best now. As soon as Xuanyuan Qi said this, he immediately understood when he heard the song.

"Master, when will it start?"

"You have to bring in sorghum seeds. There is no such place. Xuanyuan Qi said that he would do it, and immediately sent a message to the imperial court, which caused an uproar. praised Xuanyuan for praying for this method, and Xuanyuan Jing's face was even brighter, and in less than three days, the seeds were transported.

Li Changqing is even more silent now, and asked Shuangmo to take her to find the person who could make lenses last time, but it took a long time to find him before she arrived at his house.
