Qiao Mingyue watched the guards leave angrily, eager to pour all the wine that Qi Jingyun had secretly hidden into the well.

Seeing Qiao Mingyue's angry appearance, the maid Chunyu hurriedly comforted her, saying that the prince just didn't want the princess to be in danger with him, and it was also kind.

Qiao Mingyue's face softened a little, she didn't know that Qi Jingyun had good intentions, but she was afraid that he would go to the Northland because of her! It's just that...... Now she has heard more or less about the situation in the Northland, if it is really serious to the point that the rioting people besiege the prince, then the Northland can be said to be full of dangers.

These people are not like the enemy on the battlefield, because they know that they are enemies, so they can rush and kill unscrupulously, these people are all suffering people, many people are likely to be unarmed, or they are instigated to do so, even if Qi Jingyun goes with the army, he may not be able to solve the dilemma of Tuoba Gong being besieged.

She understands Qi Jingyun's temperament, and he can do it if he kills the enemy on the battlefield, but let him attack the defenseless people, he is afraid that he can't do it.

If he succeeds in rescuing Tuoba Gong, it's okay, if Tuoba Gong is in danger, or if he can't save Tuoba Gong, then the emperor will blame Qi Jingyun for this matter, which is obviously a thankless thing, how could he be so stupid and want to go!

I felt very uncomfortable, and Biyu, who went out to look for medicine at this time, also came back, and as soon as she came back, she came to see Qiao Mingyue, frowning and saying that all the medicine was ready, but this snow lotus has not been found.

If she can't find this snow lotus, she can't neutralize the medicinal properties, and the antidote she eats is likely to become a deadly poison.

Qiao Mingyue waved her hand and let the two go down first, while she herself got up and sat by the window, looking at the swaying osmanthus tree outside in a daze.

She also knew a little about the situation in the Northland, which had been dry for several months last year, resulting in no grain harvest, but fortunately there were a few heavy rains in the spring of the following year, and the summer harvest was not bad, and in the end the riots that should have happened did not happen.

But who knows that the sky does not fulfill people's wishes, originally thought that this summer's second crop dealer can have a good harvest, good New Year, who knows that the rain in this summer is less pitiful, in the autumn is not a rain, the sun is strong, the ground in the north is cracked, people in order to be able to have saliva to drink, digging a well to dig down more than ten meters to be able to dig a little water.

Don't say that it is the dealer, but even drinking saliva has become a problem, the largest river in the north is in the south county, but the county prince of the south county and the north county are not in harmony, and the people of the south county are even more reluctant to let the people of the north county come to fetch water just in case.

As a result, the two sides often fought because of a water source, and a lot of lives were caused, and the Northland became a mess because of this, and even the parents of the Northland didn't know how to solve it.

Nanjun is also in an arid zone, just because there is a river passing through, so that the people do not have to drink a mouthful, but how long this river can support, no one knows, now the riverbed is high, you can already see the riverbed, if it doesn't rain again, I'm afraid that the river is about to dry up.

At this time, everyone wants to save their lives, and no one can say that what the people of the South County are doing is wrong, after all, this saliva of water is their life, if the people of the North County take the water away, and this rain does not come for a long time, they will die by then.

It is now early autumn, but because of the drought in the summer, there is no grain harvest, originally autumn is a harvest season, but for the people of the northland, it is a season of nothing.

The people have no harvest and no hope, and the food at home is gradually exhausted, in order to survive, they can only do some stealing chickens and dogs and even falling grass for a living.

Even Tuoba Gong brought food and silver, and was still besieged by the rioting people, Qi Jingyun, the king of Jin of the Great Zhou, really shouldn't have taken on this task at this time!

Qiao Mingyue frowned, and told her rationally that Qi Jingyun shouldn't do this matter, but she also knew in her heart why Qi Jingyun, a person who was used to being idle on weekdays, suddenly made such a decision.

That's because Tuoba Gong is in the North, and now Tuoba Gong is in danger, if Tuoba Gong is killed by the rebellious people in the North, then her antidote will be gone, and Qi Jingyun will go to the Northland, for this.

Otherwise, according to Qi Jingyun's temperament, at this moment, he wished that Tuoba Gong would die in the north early, how could he save someone he was not used to.

The feeling of pain made her clearly realize how reckless her original decision was, so that now Qi Jingyun is still being restrained by Tuoba Gong, and she has to know that the road ahead is dangerous, but she still has no hesitation.

"Spring Rain, is Lord Ye back?" Qiao Mingyue sat by the window for a long time before asking softly.

Chunyu and Biyu, who were not worried about Qiao Mingyue, hurriedly stepped forward and replied that Ye Yichen had come back and was now in the back garden.

The front palace of this palace is where the ministers and their families live, and the harem is the bureau of the emperor and his concubines, and there is a palace wall between the front and rear palaces, and the palace wall is six or seven meters high.

If you want to go from the front palace to the back harem, the only way is the Yifu Gate, which has 16 guards, who are responsible for the inventory of the ministers and their families between the two palaces on weekdays.

This front palace is for the minister's family to live, naturally built compared to the harem, the front palace is divided into a lot of small courtyards, each small courtyard is different in size, according to the rank to distribute to each minister, for them to take their families to live in during the flower festival.

This front palace also has a back garden, the back garden is on the left side of the palace, not far from the courtyard where Qiao Mingyue and they lived, as long as you walk through a sheep intestine path paved with soft stones, you can see it.

Now there are only a few of them living in the palace, and the rest are the guards guarding the palace and some palace maids and eunuchs who are responsible for the daily life of the palace, these people naturally do not go to the back garden, and even if they go, it is just to prune the flowers and plants, so that since the emperor returned with a large group of people, this back garden has become one of Qiao Mingyue's favorite places to go.

There is no other reason, because the scenery is good and extremely quiet, sitting in the gazebo blowing the wind and admiring the lotus koi, it is really an interesting thing.

It's just that since she was poisoned, she hasn't had a chance to go to the back garden, Qi Jingyun takes her seriously, and she basically stays in the room on weekdays.
