The night wind is lonely, rowing through the Qushui River silently, reflecting a pair of beautiful people's shadows, and a Chinese girl is silent.

Gu Xiang's eyes were finally full of tears, she didn't dare to lose her sense of proportion in front of Lu Guitang, so she simply left in a negative mood, leaving only Gu Jin and Lu Guitang.

"If she goes back and tells your mother-in-law, will your mother-in-law bully you?"

He took her hand and got on the horse, still warm and concerned.

Gu Jin's eyes fell cold, his voice did not change, and he said firmly: "Am I afraid of her bullying?" ”

He laughed out loud and repeatedly: "Don't be afraid, you are naturally a character who is not afraid of heaven and earth, but ...... I'm afraid. ”

Her heart warmed suddenly, and she was touched by his words again.

She was held in his arms, leaned into his arms, and said softly: "I will take care of myself and wait for the day when my father will return to the court in triumph again." ”

"When the time comes, I will go to the house to propose."

"Okay."

……

A few days before departure, Gu Jin took Yun Qian and Peihuan to the Prime Minister's Mansion to say goodbye.

Prime Minister Wei and Mrs. Wei had all kinds of instructions to Gu Jin, and Gu Jin responded to them one by one.

But it was Wei Yuchuan who cried with pear blossoms and rain, and Gu Jin comforted her for a long time before she gave up.

"Yuchuan, in addition to doing something else, I have something else I want to ask you about."

Wei Yuchuan wiped his tears and waited for Gu Jin to speak.

"Biji, I don't plan to take Yun Qian and Peihuan with me, and I don't want to leave them in the mansion, so I want you to take care of Yan Cao by your side, okay?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room was stunned.

Yun Qian and Peihuan, the two little girls, were the first to jump out and were unwilling.

"Miss, how could the slaves and maids leave Miss, how can there be no one to take care of you when you go to the customs with your lady this time!"

"Yes, Miss, the slave inherits Miss Kindness, and will never leave Miss's side."

In addition to Yun Qian and Peihuan chattering, even Mrs. Wei began to persuade her: "Erjin, I don't know how long this battle will be fought, how can you not leave a competent person by your side to serve you." ”

At this moment, it was Gu Jin's turn to be stunned, she had never regarded Yun Qian Peihuan and the others as slaves in her life, and she could take care of herself, so she didn't want to cause a lot of dissatisfaction from a few people.

She stretched out her hand and took Yun Xuan's hand, and saw that the little girl's tears had rolled down, and immediately remembered that she had been involved by herself and died in the deep palace.

should have softened a little for this matter, but it strengthened Gu Jin's belief in leaving Yun Qian and Peihuan in Bianliang.

This is exactly what she thinks in her heart, Shuobei is not a stable realm, she doesn't need people to wait for food and daily life, this time she went to Shuobei to serve the emperor's order, and they don't have to go at all.

If you can ask for stability, why not ask for it.

"Good girl, there are not many people in the house this time, my mother and Gu Xiang just brought two grandmothers, and even the head of the house stayed at home, you just listen to me, don't go with me, okay?"

The two of them didn't follow each other, and they had to follow Gu Jin wherever they said.

When he was helpless, Wei Yuchuan suddenly changed his words: "Since your young lady said something to let you stay with me, then you should be honest and obedient." ”

Gu Jin was stunned, he didn't expect Wei Yuchuan to suddenly change his words.

I saw Wei Yuchuan smiling at himself, and his eyes exchanged twice, but Gu Jin already understood.

Wei Yuchuan - unconditionally obey his orders.

Gu Jin couldn't help but smile, thinking about it at this time, he realized that he had made a confidant in this life, and the most rare relationship in the world was like this, regardless of right or wrong, put you first.

Sui Peihuan and Yun Qian were extremely reluctant to be left in the prime minister's mansion by Wei Yuchuan, and Gu Jin didn't go home until he returned home, looking at the empty evening window pavilion, and the two faces of the two of them crying and crying still appeared in front of them.

She sighed, but knew that the decision she had made with great difficulty could not be changed.

……

The day when He and others set off for Shuobei was a rainy day, and the summer rain continued to infiltrate this prosperous place.

A total of three carriages went out of the mansion, He and Gu Xiang shared one, Gu Jin rode alone, Gu Haomian rode with him, and the remaining one was the luggage in the house.

It was difficult to travel in rainy days, and because Gu Haomian and others rode horses to accompany them, they hurried along the way when the rain stopped, and when the rain was heavy, they stopped to rest, walked and stopped, and it took five or six days to reach the border of Dingzhou.

This night I found an inn to stay, Dingzhou bandits, not as prosperous as Bianliang, the inn can only live so-so for a night.

Fortunately, Gu Jin was not picky, and because of the continuous travel, he was really tired, and he fell asleep peacefully at night.

Recently, there have been a lot of changes, and her dreams are also very unstable, for a while it is the scene of herself accompanying her grandmother under Chenghuan's knees, and for a while, Lu Guitang is sitting with her on the bank of the Xiaolang River to watch the lanterns, and after a while, everything disappears, only the screams of the fighting in the north are left, and the picture of killing suddenly pours into her mind.

Gu Jin woke up in an instant.

In front of me is still the ordinary little inn, the sky outside the window is already hot, only the moonlight is bright, illuminating a simple room.

She calmed down for a moment before she got up and lit the candle again.

The lights came on, illuminating the small house, and Gu Jin took a step back instantly, because she clearly saw a figure cast on the window lattice at the moment when the lights were on.

"Who?"

Gu Jinqiang stabilized his mind, and asked the person outside the window for an interview, while thinking about how to find Gu Haomian for help.

But the moment he heard the cough from the man outside, Gu Jin's tight strings suddenly loosened.

She sat down on the round stool in the room, held her cheeks, and asked:

"The prince has good skills, and he chased him to Dingzhou."

The man outside the window - Lu Guitang.

He smiled heavily, and didn't bother to take two steps to enter through the door, but opened the window and jumped in.

At this moment, there was only one word in Gu Jin's mind: enter the room!

Lu Guitang sat down opposite her casually, and smiled lazily: "I found out that you were asleep outside your room, but I waited for a while." ”

Gu Jin looked up at the sky, thought about the hour when he fell asleep, and learned that what he said was true, so he only smiled and did not answer.

Lu Guitang saw that she didn't ask much, but was a little disappointed, so he simply said to himself: "I'm not here to look for you, I'm here to come to Dingzhou with the emperor's order." ”

Gu Jin's eyes suddenly lit up, and she pondered this sentence in her mind, but after a moment, she already had a guess, and she asked:

"Is it the mountain bandit I told you about earlier?"

Lu Guitang smiled, and had to admit that Gu Jin's reaction speed was still much faster than he expected.

"Yes, after my uncle got my letter, he sent people to search in Dingzhou Mountain, and sure enough, he found a hidden mountain road that can lead to Bianliang."

This means that the people Gu Jin met a few days ago were indeed mountain bandits, and Helian Qi probably escaped from this mountain road.
