Chapter 49: Candle Tears (27)

"Ah Xiang, I'm going to Suzhou soon, let's rest and set off again."

Bu Niannian looked at Gu Xiang worriedly, put a wet towel in his hand on Gu Xiang's forehead, and replaced the towel that had cooled.

Gu Xiang was lying straight on the bed, his face was pale, and his eyes were thick black blue.

He shook his head and opened his eyes with a strong spirit, "No, I can't get sick, Suzhou is the granary of Western Chu, and I want to stand on the bow of the ship intact to stabilize the people's hearts." ”

Bu Niannian looked at him distressedly, "But ......"

Gu Xiang gently patted Bu Niannian's hand and comforted her: "I'm fine, don't worry." ”

The official flag pushed open the door, stood outside the curtain and said, "Your Majesty, Princess Zhaoyang asks to see you." ”

"Let her in."

The official flag went out for a while, and then the door curtain was lifted, and Mu Yi walked into the room with coal in his arms, sat down at the table, and consciously poured himself a cup of tea.

Mu Yi's series of actions as if no one was around, Bu Niannian and Gu Xiang didn't make a sound to interrupt her, wondering what she wanted to do.

After drinking the tea, Mu Yi put down the teacup, and the black cat crawled down her hand to her shoulder, squinting and began to nap.

Mu Yi walked to Gu Xiang's bedside, looked at Gu Xiang's miserable appearance and shook his head, then took out a thumb-sized box from his sleeve and handed it to Bu Niannian.

"I'll pour him a cup of hot water later, and he won't get seasick after eating this."

Bu Niannian looked at the box carefully for a while, which was exactly the same as the medicine Gu Xiang gave her last time, and she was suddenly a little excited, and thanked Mu Yi: "Thank you, Princess Zhaoyang." ”

Gu Xiang frowned when he saw the box, and said, "What do you do for me, use a knife to kill chickens, and keep it for yourself." ”

Mu Yi waved her hand, indicating that she didn't need this thing, and she diverted the topic: "I have something to go out for a few days, you pay attention to safety." I've noticed that someone has been secretly following you, and although I don't know why, it's better to be careful. ”

Bu Niannian was shocked, someone had been secretly following Gu Xiang, but she was unconscious and didn't find anything.

Gu Xiang said indifferently: "It's okay, I don't eat white rice when I raise so many people." ”

Mu Yi was also about to persuade Gu Xiang to pay attention to this matter, but the black cat lying on her shoulder stretched out its paws and grabbed Mu Yi's hair, "Old Yi, if you don't leave, you won't be able to catch up." ”

"Then I'm leaving, you must take this medicine, otherwise you will die on the road because of seasickness before you arrive in Suzhou." Mu Yi stressed to Gu Xiang again uneasily: "Also, send more people to patrol, someone will follow you at twelve o'clock, and you must be careful when you eat and drink......"

Mu Yi chattered for a while, and finally left under the scratching of the coal.

Bu Niannian handed the hot water to Gu Xiang, watched him swallow the pill, and couldn't help but sigh again: "It's the first time I've seen Princess Zhaoyang like this, it's weird." ”

Gu Xiang smiled: "She is like this, she is uncertain, but she is very kind." ”

Speaking of this, Bu Niannian was a little curious: "Ah Xiang, how did you and Princess Zhaoyang meet?" ”

"I saved her when she was a child." After Gu Xiang finished speaking, she felt that what she said was a little wrong, and corrected: "Although she can settle those people without my action, she still thinks that I saved her." ”

Mu Yi's medicine had some hypnotic effect, and after a while, Gu Xiang felt that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and he fell asleep in a daze.

Bu Niannian folded the quilt for him and sat quietly on the edge of the bed looking at him. Then he put down the bed curtain, went outside to summon the official flag in, and told him to watch Gu Xiang and not allow anyone to disturb his sleep.

Bu Niannian walked all the way to Qing Yu's room, stretched out his hand and tapped on the door a few times, and Qing Yu's clear voice came from inside: "Come in." ”

Qing Yu leaned against the window in aqua blue clothes, looked at the water waves caused by the boat, and said, "Niannian, have you ever been to Suzhou?" ”

Bu Niannian walked up to her and sat down, "No." "She came here 400 years ago, but it wasn't Suzhou at that time, and people called it Meng'an.

Qingyu continued: "Actually, Qiyang is very far from here, but the scenery is not as good as here. When I was a child, my biggest wish was to go to Suzhou City to play, but my father would only take me here when I was doing well. Later, when I grew up, I could come to Suzhou by myself, but I didn't have the opportunity. The border was in an emergency, so I put on my armor and got on the horse and fought on the battlefield with my father and brother. ”

Saying that, Qing Yu lowered her head and looked at the aqua blue shirt on her body, and gently stroked it with her hand: "The soldiers in the barracks all say that Qiyang is half of the Jiangnan water town, how can I raise such an ungentle woman, with iron armor and silver spears all day long, and blood splashed without blinking." I like the aqua blue one the most, my mother has been gentle all her life, and she said that this color is the most suitable for Qiyang's daughter. But I entered the barracks at the age of fourteen, and I only wore three aqua blue clothes for five years. ”

Qing Yu's voice was a little choked, her usual style has always been strong, and people can't help but want to obey her orders. And at this moment, a hole opened in the strong shell, and the weakness that had been suppressed for many years ran out.

Qingyu was filled with a strong sadness, Bu Niannian held her hand, "When you arrive in Suzhou, the emperor will send an accompanying imperial doctor to the post station where your aunt lives, and you can also follow her to see her at that time." Auntie will be fine, don't worry. ”

Qing Yu knew that there was a certain reason why Gu Xiang would do this because of Bu Niannian.

"Niannian, thank you."

Mu Yi's medicine is very useful, at least Gu Xiang will no longer be seasick for the next period of time, and he will finally have time and Bu Niannian and the two of them to go outside the cabin to see the scenery along the way.

The speed of the boat on the water was very fast, and early on the morning of the third day of Mu Yi's departure, Gu Xiang and his party docked in Suzhou.

The prefect of Suzhou led the county government team and a large number of people to wait at the dock in fear, and when they saw the fleet appear from afar, they began to reorganize the team.

The end point of this tour is Suzhou, and Gu Xiang will take everyone to stay in Suzhou for a few days. At that time, as soon as the news came down, the prefect of Suzhou immediately felt that the future of promotion and fortune beckoned to him, and he couldn't sleep for a few days with excitement.

After the ship docked, the imperial guards got off the ship first to make a way, and then Gu Xiang appeared on the deck. He waited for a while, and only after Bu Niannian came out did he step off the boat, Bu Niannian and Qingyu stood on both sides of Gu Xiang, and the official flag followed behind the three of them.

"Yan Yan, the prefect of Suzhou, see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live."

Gu Xiang: "Get up." ”

Yan Yan bowed his body and smiled very doggedly: "The emperor must have been tired all the way, the minister has prepared a place, and the emperor will go to rest first." ”

Gu Xiang tilted his head slightly and asked Bu Niannian: "Are you tired?" Do you want to take a break first? ”

Bu Niannian glanced at Qingyu through Gu Xiang's afterglow, she shook her head and whispered: "I'm not tired, you go and get busy, my sister and I will go to see Mrs. Qiyang Hou with the imperial doctor first." Don't worry, my sister's martial arts are very good, and she will be fine. ”

"Okay." Gu Xiang looked at Yan Yan and rejected his proposal: "No need, I will go directly to the county office." ”

Gu Xiang originally wanted the official flag to follow Bu Niannian, but Bu Niannian firmly decided that it would be more useful for the official flag to follow him, and directly rejected his proposal.

Yan Yan led Gu Xiang and his party to the Suzhou Mansion, and the momentum was immense, and the people along the way stopped and knelt down to thank the emperor.

Gu Xiang nodded with satisfaction when he saw this, it seems that this Suzhou prefect is not a rice bucket, and has done something practical.

Mrs. Qiyang Hou is very ill, this is Bu Niannian's first intuitive feeling.

Before they came, they had already sent someone to inform them in advance, and it was estimated that Mrs. Qiyang Hou had cleaned up in advance.

But his face was still full of sickness, his face was miserable and pale, and he could see that there was no trace of blood on his lips through the faint lip fat, and the dark blue under his eyes was very deep, and the dark eyes showed a trace of brilliance the moment he saw Qing Yu, and soon disappeared. His hands had begun to swell, and with the help of the maid, he sat up from the bed with difficulty, holding Qingyu's hand tightly, tears fell, and took away the fine powder that was carefully applied to his face to improve his complexion.
