Chapter 159: Self-care
Li Shuxian naturally reluctantly ordered his subordinates to do it, after all, he was ready to flee back to Beijing at any time, how could he let his back road be blocked?
Zhang Yuan listened to Gu Baixiu's suggestion, hit it off with Gu Baixiu, and led the soldiers to do it themselves, just do what they say. They separated the most dangerous roads with gravel and transplanted trees from the soft areas.
Because there was no gap in the rain in Xiangzhou, they could only brave the rain to go up the mountain to check, mark the danger first, and then arrange other methods to eliminate the danger.
Qin Huai was frightened for the past two days, he really couldn't muster his strength, he was sleepy but couldn't sleep, he could only close his eyes and listen to the sound of rain outside.
Gu Baixiu also told her not to go out at will, even if she went, she wouldn't be able to help, it was better to rest in the house, even if she read a book, she could be regarded as worrying about Xiangzhou.
Speaking of books, she brought a lot of books from Liu Yanxin to her along the way, almost all of them were related to the epidemic, and some were dealing with the people, but she really forgot about the topography of Xiangzhou and the like, and she really didn't think about it well.
thought that after reading a few books, he would be able to point out the sky, but in the end, Gu Baixiu had to come forward.
In fact, she is also thinking now, what kind of relationship is she and Gu Baixiu?
In the past, Qin Huai would think of Duan Xiaolang many times, and wanted to stick to him every day, but if he couldn't do it, he would turn him back to the princess's mansion and detain him.
Allowing himself to see and think about himself not only cut off other people's minds, but also cut off Duan Xiaolang's back road, so that he can always belong to himself.
But she thinks that is too selfish, who wants to be a canary all the time?
So Qin Huai has been waiting, waiting, waiting, that is...... Didn't wait.
However, during the days spent with Gu Baixiu, Duan Xiaolang was slowly left behind, and Gu Baixiu's starry face filled her mind.
Gu Baixiu, although he has a face that can make people full of distractions, he himself is the master of Nirvana. But if there are really a few people who can have something to do with him, they must also be fairy-like characters, and those ordinary Qin Huai don't take it seriously.
If you want to say that you like it, that's for sure, who can refuse Gu Baixiu from a good look?
But she still has concerns.
People like Gu Baixiu are more difficult to control than Duan Xiaolang, Duan Xiaolang belongs to all women in Xunyang, and Gu Baixiu does belong to the world. Even though Qin Huai has the ability to compete for the women of the entire Xunyang City, there is no way to compare it with everything in the world.
She never mentioned it to Gu Baixiu, not because she was the one who remarried, Gu Baixiu never cared about red tape, if she had her in her heart, the princess identity and remarriage alone were just floating clouds.
But Gu Baixiu did all kinds of ...... to himself Do you really like it?
Qin Huai couldn't be sure.
She tossed and turned on the couch, and the more dangerous the situation, the more she could not concentrate. She couldn't imagine how she would deal with herself if Gu Baixiu was no longer by her side in the future.
Thinking about it, she sat up, wrapped her hands around her legs, buried her face under her knees, and felt the cool breeze through the window.
So much so that when Mingyue walked in, she didn't notice it.
"Princess, the female official has sent a message, I'm afraid I can't hide the fact that you left Beijing without authorization."
What the?
Qin Huai raised his head, he couldn't believe that the matter was about to be stabbed out so soon.
"So fast? Didn't I send out all the Secret Guards...... And this matter was personally arranged by Mu Guanqing, and the father will not find out until tomorrow at the earliest. ”
Before she left, she calculated various possibilities with Mu Guanqing, and even asked the maid below to pretend to be herself, and only let no one disturb her in the courtyard.
And also asked the rice paper to do a trick, every two days to come to the princess's mansion to talk, Mu Guanqing will also send some gifts from time to time. Even if her father sent guards to protect her safety, she would definitely not be discovered at this juncture.
Mingyue shook her head, she didn't understand the full display of Xunyang's affairs, but just told all the contents of the letter.
"The female officer said in the letter that she would try her best to help you delay, and also advised you to return to Xunyang as soon as possible. One is to avoid His Majesty's wrath, and the other is that this epidemic is really unsafe. It is said that there are already one or two examples of the cities around Xunyang, and the judgment of Xunyang Tai Hospital believes that this epidemic is menacing, and it will not be calmed down so quickly before it reaches its peak. ”
Isn't that a high peak?
Then it's Gao Feng, for so many years, Tianyu has never had such a scene, if it really spreads to Xunyang City, wouldn't it be chaotic.
But she didn't appear in Xiangzhou this time because her father sent her, but because she sneaked out, in case this point was known to the people of Xiangzhou, and then let Li Qixian find out, it would be very unfavorable to her.
"No, now that Xiangzhou needs me to guard, how can I rest assured that these epidemic people will be handed over to Li Qixian."
Now everything in Xunyang City can only be entrusted to Mu Guanqing, she believes in Mu Guanqing's ability, and Mu Guanqing will definitely believe in her.
"Can I send a message to the female official, even if my father knows, I must ask my father to give me a holy decree, so that I can advance and retreat with the people of Xiangzhou, I have this confidence."
Before the words were finished, Mingyue returned this method to its original form.
"Princess, you forgot, our carrier pigeon only comes from Xunyang, and we must not send it back to Xunyang, otherwise we will definitely be detected by others, at that time, not only the female official can't help us, but we ourselves are also difficult to protect."
Yes, Qin Huai almost forgot that Mu Guanqing's carrier pigeons have never returned.
Xunyang City dignitaries gathered, everyone has the habit of raising carrier pigeons, and naturally knows how to shoot down other people's carrier pigeons to obtain information.
There are no less than 100 carrier pigeons in and out of Xunyang every day, some of which are exclusively for the royal family, some are secret reports of various sects, and some are the secrets of ordinary clans.
Mu Guanqing's people have a special route to send the carrier pigeon out of the city to ensure that it is safely delivered to Qin Huai all the way, but Qin Huai has no way to ensure that the carrier pigeon can fly back to Xunyang accurately and fall into Mu Guanqing's hands.
Seeing Qin Huai sighing, Mingyue hurriedly stepped forward to be relieved.
"Princess, don't worry, you have been friends with the female official for many years, and she must know your character, so you can rest assured that you will leave everything to her."
For Mingyue, the female official, like Gu Shaoxia, is the reincarnation of an immortal in the sky, and she can do everything with a wave of her hand. Otherwise, the princess wouldn't have been able to return to Xunyang so smoothly, would she?
But the more Qin Huai listened to such words, the more she blamed herself, and if she traced back to the source, she couldn't say it clearly.
"It is said that Da is good for the world, but Mu Guanqing has too many things to do, and I don't know anything but to make trouble for her all day long, I'm really afraid that she won't be able to support it one day."
Not to mention that Tianyu has been founded since the founding of the country, even if the history books of the past dynasties are turned upside down, there is no strange woman like Mu Guanqing, she has done too much, and what others can't do in a month can be solved in one day, and she will not show tiredness.
When she first met her, Qin Huai always thought that she would have a bunch of doormen to help her deal with big and small things, which made her look so relaxed.
But when I really got to know Mu Guanqing, I found that she didn't have any doormen, and she had to bow down to everything, if there was anything she didn't do but didn't worry.
My father praised her for being as strong as a hundred, but such a person's energy will run out one day.
These days, Qin Huai pressed that Mu Guanqing, who was originally happy to do it, had changed and became less high-spirited.
She will also be silent, she will lower her eyes, and she will be indifferent.
And Mu Guanqing always said something suspicious, what does it mean that if she is in trouble, please ask Qin Huai to help Yunyun.
"Mingyue, you said that the female official is so powerful, will she completely lose the trust of her father one day?"
She was also a whim, and she had absolutely no other meaning.
"Princess, don't think about it, the female official has a stable position in the court, and if she says something rebellious, even if the world falls apart, the female official will definitely stand."
Are you sure? Qin Huai was a little unconvinced.
She also thought that her position was stable, but it was not because of Qin Xuanlang's words that she left Xunyang, where she had always lived, and left her trusted father. Although it is back to its original position now, it is not the same as it was back then.
Even a princess can become a disaster star that everyone shouts and beats, so who knows, will the world-famous Mu Guanqing have it......
Phew, it's impossible.
"Princess, Gu Shaoxia is back."
Mingyue heard a voice outside and reported it to Qin Huai as soon as possible.
Before Qin Huai could react, the voice of the person she missed came from outside the door.
"Princess, I'm back, I'll talk to you first, let me tidy up first, and then I'll see you."
When will Gu Baixiu also pay attention to these?
Qin Huai replied softly.
But the rain outside was so heavy, he estimated that it was raining again, was he also tired?
"Mingyue, you go and cook a pot of ginger soup and send it to a few children standing guard outside, you and Caixia also drink it, and then take a bowl to Gu Baixiu."
Mingyue listened to her master's words, and of course she also understood that the first few were foreshadowing, and the one given to Gu Shaoxia was the most important.
"Slave and maid, let's do it, princess, you rest first."
If you want to say that you don't want to match the princess and Gu Shaoxia, it must be impossible, but people like Gu Shaoxia are no longer unattainable, but unattainable.
Sometimes the closeness of two people is inevitably a drama, but it is even more difficult.
Stepping out of the courtyard, the bright moon turned around, and I just saw Caixia hiding under the stove alone, the shabby tassel in her hand.
Caixia has been carrying the green tassel since she was a child, and she always refuses to say it whenever she asks, and she doesn't see the tassel anymore when she gets older. But this time Caixia returned to the princess's mansion, and the spike appeared again.
