Chapter 182: Eight Gui Eunuchs

Early the next morning, Li Jicai's eyes were half-closed and half-open, and he suddenly heard the noisy movement outside, and he didn't know what he was doing.

Unprovoked disturbance of people's dreams is the most hateful.

Some of them pulled up the quilt and covered their faces, trying to block out the annoying noise.

However, there was a person who was talking with a sharp and thin voice, and Li Jicai estimated that the person was standing in the courtyard and talking.

Biyu and Biluo know her habit of lying in bed the most, so they indulge her and often let her sleep late before getting up.

It's just that what's wrong this morning, it's noisy and wow-wow.

If it weren't for the fact that her body felt very heavy and tired, she really wanted to get out of bed and look outside.

Oh, it's annoying.

At this moment, it would be nice if Biluo and Biyu came in, let them go out to see what was going on, and quickly drive the people away.

Li Jicai has never seen a eunuch in the palace, but today is a pity, and it is a big eunuch in the palace who missed the person who pinched his throat and spoke softly.

Then this big eunuch is here for nothing else, just for Qi Qingchu.

It was less than a few days before and after Qi Qingchu arrived here, which shows how well-informed the news in the palace is.

Qi Qingchu was also pulled up from his sleep, and he heard the knock on the door like raindrops outside.

I also felt very irritable.

But even if Qi Qing pretended to ignore it at first, those people finally came in.

He wanted to say that why he dared to be so bold, it turned out that he came with His Majesty's will.

It's nothing more than a word to let him go back.

Qi Qingchu also knew in his heart that he had been doing patrols in Jiangnan, but suddenly ran to Liangzhou in a hurry.

Something must have gone wrong.

It stands to reason that if it weren't for His Majesty, someone was scurrying around.

All Qi Qingchu could think of was the officials on the Liangzhou side, or the fourth prince Jiang Xihu, who had already returned.

The former is that the officials here are worried about themselves, whether they are eyeing them, and the latter is probably afraid that he will do something to Li Jicai, so he will touch the melon.

Qi Qingchu was still suspicious of what happened at the beginning, and he was talking about internal and external responses, and this internal was likely to be the fourth prince.

"Lord Qi, wash up quickly, go back to the capital with the Sprinkle family, and the Sprinkle family will wait for you outside first."

This eunuch is a close attendant of Emperor Gao Dedi, who is yellow and short, and his face is full of fat and fat, which makes people feel very greasy, and the fine white fat powder looks falsely white.

Qi Qingchu has always disliked him, but he has never shown his displeasure with him on his face, and in the eyes of other minor officials, he may even have to please this eunuch named Bagui, Qi Qingchu nodded lightly and didn't say anything.

Immediately, the eunuch Bagui took a group of little eunuchs and went out to the courtyard to wait.

But the eunuch Bagui did not stand in the courtyard in peace, but shouted to a group of little eunuchs, saying what it was, helping to pack the luggage of the adults, and by the way, finding out the officials in charge of the children, negotiating, asking about the situation, and making a routine appearance.

In fact, this Bagui eunuch just wanted to see if there were other people living in this courtyard, and wanted to see if Qi Qingchu could get a glimpse of the reason for coming here.

That way, he can go back and report.

So there was a noise that made Li Jicai extremely unhappy.

Just as the little eunuchs were about to look around the surrounding rooms, Cheng Cheng suddenly ran out and led more than a dozen guards.

"Yo, who am I looking at?" Bagui eunuch, Pi Xiaorou said without smiling, and the fat on his face trembled with the tone of his voice, like the undulating appearance of rolling hills, high and low.

The eunuch Bagui knew Cheng Cheng, and he was mixed in the palace, and he had always had some eyesight, and some faces still had to be remembered.

For example, the one in front of him is one of the subordinates of the four princes, Cheng Cheng.

"Eight, what kind of wind blew you here?" Cheng Cheng's elegant face showed a kind smile, but under this smile it was like being mixed with ice ballast, and Bagui couldn't help but panic when he saw it.

"Where, this is not sent by His Majesty, the road has been bumpy for too long, and I rushed all the way from Jinzhou, Lord Qi is really willful, I came here in Liangzhou, so I pounced, and I don't know what Lord Qi is here for."

Eunuch Bagui's tone was a little meaningful, as if he was referring to something.

Cheng Cheng heard it, just smiled, and then hugged his fists and said: "Lord Qi must have come here for business, tired and hurried on the road, who said no, he lay down here for a few days as soon as he came, and he only woke up leisurely last night, and he didn't have time to talk to the adults, I don't believe that the eighth manager went to ask the doctor, you came early this morning, and this speed is not slow." ”

Bagui's eyelids lifted, and there was no squeak.

The smile on Cheng Cheng's face did not dissipate, he was used to everyone talking with needles, especially in the palace.

"This, Lord Qi's luggage is not much, I have enough people with me, why don't they let a few of them help pack up?"

Cheng Cheng answered: "The lord came on horseback alone, and he didn't bring any luggage, so he can probably go with the chief manager after a little washing, after all, His Majesty is urging him to do so." ”

wants the little eunuch to explore this courtyard, Cheng Cheng is like a mirror in his heart, where can he get his wish?

Bagui was not satisfied now, and he couldn't help but complain a little in his heart, but he couldn't express it.

So he could only scream: "Then in that case, a few of you hurry up and pick up and prepare, we are going to go, what is here on the way?" If you want to bring it, hurry up and bring it, by the way, the supplies on the road to us this time are not enough, and please prepare some here. ”

Cheng Cheng said without leaking: "Of course, that's of course." ”

Eunuch Bagui was a little depressed when he was said, this Cheng Cheng, guarding against him, didn't see that those little eunuchs were about to push the door in, but they were stopped outside by those guards.

It's clear that no one is here just now, but this precaution is quite real.

Of course, Cheng Cheng would not let this eunuch see Li Jicai in the room, after all, he kept in mind the arrangements of His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, and he must protect Li Jicai's safety, and others are not allowed to approach at will.

One such mistake is enough.

Biyu and Biluo had already gone in to appease Li Jicai, and didn't let her go out of the room for half a step, so as not to hear the movement coming from outside and come out to see it curiously.

Everyone was waiting for Qi Qingchu to pack up and come out of the room, but unexpectedly, Qi Qingchu was a little sluggish.

If he left now, if he had planned to say something more to Li Jicai, wouldn't it be gone? So what did he work so hard to come here for? But now that His Majesty is urgently summoning him back to the capital, how can this be good?

Resisting the decree is a great crime, not only to himself, but also to his family, and the gains outweigh the losses.

So, Qi Qingchu hesitated in the house for a while, and finally had no choice but to give up, and followed the Bagui eunuch back to resume his life.

Therefore, if you take the risk of doing it impulsively, there is nothing more to say about it.

When the movement for a long time finally calmed down, Li Jicai finally felt that he was alive, there was really a disturbance outside, and he didn't know what he was doing, didn't Cheng Cheng care?

Okay, even if Cheng Cheng doesn't care, can't she take care of it?

I don't know who is screaming in the courtyard, don't you know that this is disturbing people's dreams? It's literal.

When Li Jicai wanted to go out to investigate, he was stopped by Biyu and Biluo, saying that it was official business outside, and Li Jicai, as a woman, should not appear, and he didn't agree with the etiquette, so he shouldn't go out to join in the fun.

But the two of them also appeased her, saying that they would stop arguing for a while.

Seeing that the attitude of the two maids was very resolute, Li Jicai didn't say anything more, anyway, it was not a big deal, and it was over after a while.

When the eunuch Bagui withdrew from the courtyard, a large group of people who followed him also retreated, including Cheng Cheng and his guards, the courtyard that was originally stuffed and impassable was suddenly empty, and was taken away along with the voice of talking, and Qi Qingchu also followed them.

He didn't even say goodbye, he left silently, like time passing through his fingernails.

And unconsciously the mild and brilliant spring has passed for a long time, the scorching summer is quietly coming, the sand and dust here in Liangzhou is even greater, and you have to wear a veil and cover your face when you go out during the day, otherwise the sand and dust is really enough.

The drought near Liangzhou is still continuing, and there is a tendency to spread outward, although the materials for the relief of the victims are very abundant in a short time, but I am afraid that after a long time, it is estimated that it will not be able to be consumed.

When will this drought end, the people will have a way to live, I heard that the upper reaches of the Liangzhou River have been cut off, and some of the small He Xiaohu lakes have disappeared directly, the land is dry to death, and the people are thirsty to death.

At least Li Jicai can't understand it.

After she got up, she washed up, and Biyu had already brought exquisite meals, including meat and vegetarian, melons and fruits, and a lot of snacks, which was comparable to that of a noble lady.

"It's too extravagant!" Li Jicai, who sits at the dinner table every time, can't help but sigh like this, thinking that when she was a beggar, that is, more than half a steamed bun, she felt that she was innocent and cared for her.

And now the happiness generated by her treatment is like a stolen one.

Walking all the way to eat wild vegetables, wild flowers and wild mushrooms, asking for food all the way, it is also a wonder that you were not poisoned.

Sometimes I really imagine that I am like Shennong who tasted a hundred herbs, and finally ate the broken intestine grass, and the liver and intestines were broken and died, but she made a great contribution to the people, of course, when it was her turn, she was a hungry bedbug beggar, who deserved to eat blindly.

"Miss, even if you can eat with confidence, the kitchen has it, don't worry." Biyu thought that Li Jicai was reluctant, and was worried that he would not eat the last meal, so he said this.

"No, that's not what I meant, isn't this all people's fat and people's ointment? I can't enjoy it with peace of mind, so I'll keep it simple, simpler. "When she used to sell vegetables, she knew how poor and miserable she was.
