Su Jinyao also saw the three light brown lines naturally formed on the brand, which were obvious and regular. I couldn't help but ask, "What's the use of this thing?" ”

Gu Xuebin said: "It is generally blessed by Buddhism. But if the fox is buried here, I don't know what it is for. ”

Obviously, this thing is definitely not polished by a pair of foxes after they become fine, most likely they were picked up by the pair somewhere. But what is their purpose?

Is this a return for gratitude?

Gu Xuebin looked at this Three Realms card again and again, but still couldn't see anything. wrapped it in a handkerchief, handed it to Su Jinyao, and said, "You can help the pair of foxes keep it." Maybe they'll come and get it. ”

Su Jinyao took it and said, "Why don't you bury them back?" ”

Gu Xuebin shook his head and said, "Look at the two pits over there, one should be the one you backfilled last night, and the other is the one you just found this brand." This proves that the fox will no longer use the passive pit. It could be that they are contaminated with the smell of humans, or they feel unsafe and give up. So it's useless for us to bury them again, and if the foxes come again, they will definitely dig again. ”

Su Jinyao twisted the dirty, greasy cloth rope on the Three Realms card again, and said, "This cloth rope is broken." It should have been worn by someone before, but then the rope broke, and the Three Realms cards fell. ”

Gu Xuebin nodded and said, "This thing is generally hung with the Buddha beads, making the back cloud of the Buddha beads; There are also those that are worn alone, but they are all carefully cared for. If you fall down......"

Gu Xuebin grimaced and continued, "This could also be a dead man's thing. ”

"I'm really not afraid of the dead." After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she wrapped the Three Realms cards with a handkerchief. I'm going to take it back and put it in her purse.

Gu Xuebin smiled, but he was just teasing Su Jinyao, and he didn't really mean to scare her. What's more, he knew that Su Jinyao was not afraid of this.

Then A-Ning and Mo were in charge of filling in the soil, filling in the pit dug out by the fox again, and stepping on it, as hard as possible.

After such a toss, the sky is already bright. The soldiers in the barracks also got up and prepared for the drill.

It's just that Gu Xuebin and Su Jinyao have special identities, so even if someone is watching from afar, no one comes to ask or join in the fun.

It wasn't until Song Yiming was about to take a team of men out to patrol the border that he noticed the situation here, so he came over and asked, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, is there something wrong?" ”

At this time, Aning and Mo had already filled the pit. Su Jinyao said, "It's okay, it's just that the pair of fire foxes we let go of yesterday ran back and dug a hole outside my tent." ”

Song Yiming thought it was incredible, but he didn't ask too much. just smiled and said casually: "Maybe I'm here to repay the favor." Didn't you put a hare in that pit? ”

Su Jinyao also smiled, but did not say anything about the discovery of the Three Realms card. Song Yiming was not interested, so he took his people and left.

When she was having breakfast with her uncle, Su Jinyao told General Tuoba Gao about it as if it were a little story.

Then he took out the Three Realms card and showed it to his uncle. But General Tuoba Gao didn't see the reason, so he handed over the things to Su Jinyao to keep.

For the next two days, Su Jinyao would pay attention to the movement outside every night, and when she got up in the morning, she would go to the back of the tent to have a look, but she never saw the pair of fire foxes again. Of course, there were no more pits in the ground.

A few more days passed, and it was still business as usual. If Su Jinyao didn't still have that Three Realms card in her pocket, it would be as if the pair of fire foxes hadn't been here at all.

During this period, Geng Bin also came. But this is a military camp, so he can't just stay.

So Geng Bin just told Su Jinyao face-to-face about the establishment of the carriage and horse shop in Licheng, and then told the accounts

Next, he left.

For Geng Bin, Su Jinyao has absolute trust. This person has nothing to worry about, and he can be regarded as having a livelihood by focusing on the carriage and horse shop, which is much better than others wandering around in middle age.

Therefore, such a person is easy to settle down, and his heart is relatively calm, and he will not be attracted by exaggeration, which is a good helper.

In this way, after living in this military camp for seven or eight days, Gu Xuebin and Su Jinyao are about to leave.

Because Gu Xuebin still had to send Su Jinyao to Anji City, and then rush back to the capital, he said goodbye to his uncle today and prepared to leave immediately.

Tuoba Gao is naturally reluctant, but after all, he is a big man and will not show his emotions easily. So when they parted, they just patted Gu Xuebin's shoulder hard, even if it was a farewell.

Su Jinyao also wanted to prescribe medicine to her uncle. She was really distressed when she looked at her uncle.

This time, it was Zhang Chengliang who hurriedly stopped it and said, "Crown Princess, you should spare me." I really can't afford this job, I can't pour medicine into the general, can I? ”

Su Jinyao thought about it, if his uncle was stubborn, Zhang Chengliang and Song Yiming would be his subordinates, and he would not be able to disobey him at all.

Sighing, Su Jinyao said, "Uncle, Che and I have already gotten married." It's better to wait for a while to settle down, and then you can go back to the capital. I don't think there's any crisis here. ”

Gu Xuebin naturally meant the same thing, and also told Tuoba Gao that after a while, he would let the emperor decree that his uncle would be transferred back to the capital.

Uncle nodded and didn't say anything, in fact, he knew in his heart that it would be difficult to return to the capital. Unless he gives up the military power in his hands, or Gu Xuebin succeeds him.

Otherwise, with his status as a general with heavy troops, Su Jinyao may take over the token of the Gu Family Army, which is a real help to Gu Xuebin, but it is too much pressure for the emperor.

Su Jinyao and Gu Xuebin also saw their uncle's embarrassment, and it was inconvenient to say anything at this time. It's also unrealistic to make a guarantee, just let my uncle take care, they will come to Mobei to see him if they have the chance.

Uncle smiled and said, "Haha, it's best to bring your doll with you next time you come over." ”

Su Jinyao also smiled shyly when she heard this, but she still nodded.

In fact, in Su Jinyao's heart, spreading branches and leaves for the man she loves is far more important than the inheritance of the heirs of the royal family.

Su Jinyao is willing to conceive a baby for Gu Xuebin, which is the crystallization of their love. But if it's just for the responsibility of the royal family, Su Jinyao will never use herself as a fertility tool.

No matter how difficult it is to say goodbye, we still have to separate after all.

Su Jinyao and Gu Xuebin are not people who drag mud and water, because they both got on their horses and left with A-Ning and Mo.

General Tuoba Gao also got on the horse to send it off, and when Gu Xuebin ran out of the camp gate, he turned around and said, "Uncle, don't send it again, we will meet soon." ”

Zhang Chengliang and Song Yiming also persuaded Tuoba Gao not to do this, so they stopped their uncle.

Seeing Su Jinyao and Gu Xuebin go away, the uncle's eyes flashed with crystal vapor again. But a happy smile floated again, blessing the couple from the bottom of his heart.

After leaving the barracks, Su Jinyao's mood was a little heavy, and she also hoped that her uncle could return to Beijing as soon as possible, but she really couldn't find a good breakthrough for a while.

Again separately

Just when Su Jinyao was in a bad mood, she suddenly saw a jumping red "hairball" appear in front of her right. The red furball jumped closer and closer, and it was the fire fox with dark green eyes.

Gu Xuebin also saw the fox jumping and galloping over, he and Su Jinyao glanced at each other, and at the same time pulled the horse back.

Mo and A-Ning in the back also stopped, and the four of them looked at each other with a fox.

After a while, another black-eyed fire fox also jumped out. The two foxes stood side by side, wagging a pair of big furry tails, motionless twenty paces away from Su Jinyao and their right.

Su Jinyao smiled, and then took out a handkerchief wrapped in the Three Realms cards from her pocket. Opening the handkerchief, Su Jinyao shook the cloth rope and asked, "Are you here to get this thing?" ”

Of course, the fox couldn't speak, but the pair of black pupils and a pair of dark green pupils both looked at the Three Realms card.

Su Jinyao thought about it, and after getting off the horse, she walked towards the fire fox with the Three Realms card in her hand.

The two foxes immediately moved their ears, and their faces showed a little alarm.

Su Jinyao didn't walk all the way over, but slowly walked six or seven steps, squatted down and put the Three Realms card on the ground with the handkerchief. Then he slowly stepped back and retreated to the side of the horse.

"I've got it back for you. We're leaving. After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she turned around and was about to get on the horse.

However, at this moment, Su Jinyao saw the dark green pupiled fox take a few steps forward, and then trotted two steps forward, and quickly came to the side of the Three Realms card.

Su Jinyao just stood still, she wanted to watch this cute little guy take the Three Realms cards away.

The fire fox first lowered its head and sniffed at the Three Realms card, and then tentatively arched the handkerchief with its mouth.

Then, the fox grabbed the corner of the handkerchief with his mouth and shook it violently, and the Three Realms card was thrown into the air. The fire fox immediately threw away his handkerchief, jumped up and jumped into the air, and grabbed the Three Realms card in his mouth.

It's like a dog playing frisbee, it's quite interesting, and it's quite accurate. But this fire fox can be said to be entertaining itself, and no one throws anything at it.

Just when Su Jinyao thought that the fox had taken the Three Realms card and was about to leave, she saw that the fire fox with the Three Realms card in her mouth did not turn around and leave, but took small steps and walked towards Su Jinyao.

The fox walking towards Su Jinyao walked very slowly, and every step was cautious, with vigilance and temptation.

And the black-eyed fox behind it was staring at Su Jinyao's side even more nervously, looking at it as if it was looking at its companions.

In this way, step by step, the fire fox kept walking towards Su Jinyao with the Three Realms card in his mouth. When he walked about three steps away from Su Jinyao, he stopped.

Three steps, which is a very close distance. Su Jinyao could even make out the few white whiskers on the fire fox's mouth, and the glint in its dark green eyes.

Immediately, when everyone on Su Jinyao's side was surprised and puzzled, the green-eyed fox shook his head like a frisbee and threw the Three Realms card towards Su Jinyao.

Su Jinyao suddenly stretched out her hand to catch it, and then looked at the fox in front of her in surprise. Apparently it's not playing games with itself, it's ...... Gifts?

Su Jinyao shook the Three Realms card in her hand, and asked the little fox with a smile: "You gave me this?" You dug a hole outside the tent that day, did you mean that this thing was your treasure, so I could hide it properly? ”

The fire fox's eyes flashed, but instead of nodding or shaking his head like the elf, he turned and ran away wagging his big tail.

The fox ran to the other fox, and after the two foxes glanced back at Su Jinyao at the same time, they wagged their big tails together and ran away in a bouncing way.

Just as they had done when they came, the two red furballs quickly disappeared into the depths of the desert and were never to be seen again.

Su Jinyao looked at the Three Realms card in her hand, looked up at Gu Xuebin again, and said proudly: "See, this is the blessing of doing good deeds." It is said that animals have spirits, and it seems to be true. ”

Gu Xuebin also smiled and said, "Although the Three Realms card itself is not worth much, if it is blessed by a master, it will be an extraordinary holy relic. This sign shows that it is a long time ago in terms of color and texture, and it is indeed a treasure sent by such a spiritual animal. Let's keep it as a good collection. ”

Su Jinyao happily played the Three Realms cards in her hand. Then he vigorously tore off the very shabby and dirty cloth rope tied on it, and took out one of his own strings and tied it again.

Then he tucked this Three Realms card around his waist and used it as a jade pendant-like ornament, ready to carry it with him.

After the two fire foxes saw them off, Su Jinyao's mood improved. I won't feel so bored when I'm in a hurry.

Gu Xuebin took care of Su Jinyao as much as possible along the way and escorted her to Anji City.

The newlywed Yan'er was reluctant to part at all. But Gu Xuebin has been away from Beijing for more than half a month, and it really can't be done if he doesn't go back.

And Su Jinyao really wanted to stay at home for a few days, so she could only leave A-Ning behind and let Gu Xuebin and Mo continue to hurry.

Originally, Gu Xuebin also wanted to go into the city to see Su Xiangui. After all, that is Su Jinyao's adoptive father, and he can be regarded as his father-in-law.

But Su Jinyao felt that Gu Xuebin might not have anything, but if Su Xiangui saw Gu Xuebin, he would definitely be terrified, and it would be really bad if he really made a matter of kowtowing and bowing.

Therefore, Su Jinyao decided to let Gu Xuebin not go over this time, she went home first and talked to Su Xiangui to strengthen Su Xiangui's psychology a little.

There are still many opportunities to meet in the future, or Su Xiangui can follow Su Jinyao back to Beijing, so it will not be so embarrassing to meet again at that time.

In this way, Gu Xuebin and Su Jinyao broke up ten miles outside Anji City.

Su Jinyao walked forward a little further, which was the first carriage and horse shop driven by Ma Liu, so Gu Xuebin didn't have to worry about her going to walk these ten miles alone.

Sorry for the farewell, Su Jinyao refused to leave first, and finally let Gu Xuebin leave with Mo Xian, so she was willing to go to the carriage and horse shop.

Gu Xuebin was helpless, and he couldn't bear Su Jinyao stubbornly standing on the side of the road, so he had to leave with Mo Xian.

After running for a while, Gu Xuebin glanced back again. saw that Su Jinyao was still standing on the side of the road, looking at him and smiling, and waving at him.

For a moment, Gu Xuebin wanted to turn around and go back again, saying that he would no longer leave Jinyao's side.

But I felt that it was a bit hypocritical, after all, I still wanted to give Su Jinyao more freedom, so I could only grit my teeth and turn my head, and once again urge the horse to gallop away.

Return to Anji City

Su Jinyao watched Gu Xuebin's horse speed away, she understood that it was not that he wanted to go faster, but that she was reluctant to leave if she was afraid of being a little slower. She also took a breath, and pulled the horse's head to urge the horse to leave.

Can't just stand like this all the time, just a small difference, and you won't get tired of getting tired every day? Su Jinyao thought so in her heart, but her eyes quietly turned red.

A-Ning saw that Su Jinyao was in a bad mood, so she didn't say anything, and just silently accompanied her all the way to the carriage and horse.

The car and horse shop is becoming more and more lively, and it is like a city outside the city, and the bustling and prosperous is no less than the shops in Anji City.

And because there are many merchants coming and going, most of the business here is still big business. Because people pay attention to a "poor family's rich road", those merchants who walk outside are not bad for money.

This time, when Su Jinyao came to the carriage and horse shop, she found that the familiar faces before were gone.

Now the guy at the door looks younger than Dongzi at the beginning, he walks with a lot of energy, and he speaks quickly and neatly. Looking at that pace, it seems that he is still a practitioner.

Because of the relationship between the different people, this guy didn't know Su Jinyao when Su Jinyao came to the door.

But when he beckoned Su Jinyao and walked inside, the shopkeeper glanced at the door and recognized that this was their big boss.

"Big Boss, you're back!" The shopkeeper had seen Su Jinyao, and immediately greeted him.

Su Jinyao nodded with a smile, pouted at the store, and asked, "Why have they all been replaced?" Are these new arrivals? ”

"It's not a substitution." While personally leading the way for Su Jinyao, the shopkeeper said: "The business of Martha's master is getting bigger and bigger, and the guys here are all familiar with it, so they are assigned to the shops in various places to be in charge." Now some of these are newcomers, and some of them have been arranged by Yameiju. ”

As soon as the shopkeeper mentioned the person arranged by Yameiju, Su Jinyao understood. Many of these people should be her spies.

However, Su Jinyao hasn't been back for a long time, and it is estimated that some of the newly selected spies don't know her, the person in charge behind the scenes, so Su Jinyao didn't ask much.

The shopkeeper directly let Su Jinyao to the main room behind, and then said, "The master of Martha just went back to the city to settle the bill." It's the beginning of the month, and the big proprietor is busy settling the money with Tongli Yinzhuang and settling the accounts. ”

Su Jinyao is the real shopkeeper, and now most of the operation of the carriage and horse shop is handed over to Ma Liu, so Ma Liu has to go to Ma Liu himself to reconcile accounts with Tongli Yinzhuang.
