Chapter 222: Dawn

But he is Mu Yanzhao after all!

Zhang Hong led Mu Qi to sit on the chariot, and followed beside him with one foot deep and one foot shallow. //..

The rough envoys and eunuchs in the palace were holding iron rakes to clear the snow and dead branches and leaves on the road, and the cold day was so hot and sweaty that they were all drenched in sweat.

Mu Qi smiled: "Cook more ginger soup to warm up, it's not good to be sick on such a cold day." ”

Zhang Hong grinned, revealing a mouthful of slightly yellow teeth, "The old slave thanked the prince for their compassion." ”

Mu Qi didn't speak, raised his head, touched his somewhat cold fingertips, and sighed in a low voice.

The snow has been falling for two days and it is still falling.

Gu Wan lazily fell on the couch, holding a travelogue in her hand, but she hadn't turned the page for a long time, Baosheng couldn't see her so bored, so she simply brought her brother Liu'er, and took out a red, green, and green album drawn by Gu Wan herself, asking Gu Wan to coax her son to play.

"What can this kid understand with such a little bit?" Gu Wan smiled, "I can't even speak." ”

Although he couldn't speak, Brother Liu'er was obviously a smart boy with a lot of curiosity, lying in his mother's arms, smiling and stretching out his hand to greet the colorful album.

Gu Wan's eyebrows softened, and she lowered her head and kissed her son's delicate face: "Little clever ghost." ”

The days in Zhuangzi are very clean, but the wind is strong at night, and there are many trees outside, which always makes people feel like ghosts crying wolves.

Gu Wan was not afraid, but she was a little worried, so she asked the guards at home to inspect the house again during the day, this Zhuangzi was left by the previous dynasty, and she was afraid that it would be in disrepair. It is not strong enough, even if there is no danger of collapse, it is not suitable to drop some bricks and tiles and hurt people.

The guards were busy. Lord Chen suddenly sent someone over.

Gu Wan recognized that it was a capable officer under Chen Wenrou, and as soon as he entered the door. He said in a low voice: "Princess, there are rioters in the capital, and the county lord tells the princess not to return to Beijing in the past few days." ”

Gu Wan frowned, raised her eyes and looked into the distance, Zhuangzi was far away from the capital, and all she saw was the dark night sky. Tonight is cloudy, and there is not even starlight, and this gloomy atmosphere is hard not to worry about.

"How are Uncle and Master?"

"The masters are fine, and now they are in the palace. The county lord is accompanying the queen's mother. This dark, thin, ordinary-looking man, his lips pursed into a slit, obviously a cautious person, Gu Wan asked, he answered, after passing the word, he refused to stop for a moment, turned around and left.

The door is open. The wind is blowing. //..

Gu Wan's palms were cold, and she looked at the night sky in a daze for a long time before she closed her eyes and exhaled: "Baosheng, tell me to go down and close the door tightly." In the past few days, everyone has been more vigilant. ”

"Yes." Bao Sheng's hand shook, and the big red lantern he was carrying almost toppled over.

The more you don't know anything, the more uncertain you are, the easier it is to get anxious.

Gu Wan calmed down, at least there is a lot of food left in the Zhuangzi, and there will be no shortage in the first half of the year, besides, this place is surrounded by mountains and rivers, even if it is winter, she will not worry about eating and drinking.

"Something's wrong." Bao Sheng's face turned pale.

Early the next morning, news came from Jingli that Jing Guogong, Yan Guogong, and Gao Chengwen, the general of Zhennan, rebelled, besieged Jingshi, and stormed the palace.

Before Gu Wan's family had time to worry, at noon, a secret letter was delivered.

The letter was obviously written in a hurry, very sloppy, it was written by the lord of Chen County, the ten major gates of the palace were breached, and the emperor and empress escaped, but they were nowhere to be found, Mu Er and Mu San were fighting with the rebels in the palace with their own soldiers, the situation was very chaotic, and it was estimated that even the soldiers themselves could not figure out what they were doing. Nowadays, there are rumors in Beijing that there are soldiers in the grass, and large families have closed their doors, and there are even robberies and disorders.

Fortunately, because the situation is unclear, Jingzhao's side is still stable, and all the officials are waiting, at this time, no one will show their heads easily, only the wiser, and still want to appease the people, anyway, don't care what happens in the end, whether it is the emperor's successful counterinsurgency, or the restoration of the old mountains and rivers, to appease the people, it is always right.

Gu Wan pressed her eyebrows - what about Mu Qi? Where is Mu Qi?

With Mexin, there was only a small peace charm, which was very exquisite, with 'peace' written in white on a black background, the words were not good, but Gu Wan rubbed it with her hands, smiled lightly, and revealed her teeth as white as snow.

"It's better to eat egg cakes in the morning, Baosheng, you can make it."

Bao Sheng was stunned for a moment and responded in a low voice.

For breakfast, the dishes are excellent, but in Zhuangzi, even the master and his subordinates are afraid that they are a little unpalatable.

Gu Wan's face was not obvious, as if she was not arrogant or impatient, and she was in the mood to touch Pai Gow with Baosheng for a while, but at night, it was quiet, she sat alone in the house, and her heart seemed to be pressed against a boulder, but when she looked down and saw Brother Liu'er sleeping sweetly in her arms, her heart was a little more steady.

When it was dark, Bao Sheng took a group of guards to close the gate, and found a boulder from the village to block the door, the lantern at the gate was unloaded, and the lights and candles in the courtyard were extinguished.

Gu Wan was resting in the house, Baosheng was guarding outside, she didn't dare to close her eyes, although no one said anything, but everyone knew in their hearts that Zhuangzi was indeed safer than Jingli, but it was also uncertain, if Yan Guogong and Jing Guogong succeeded, how could they let go of the Mu family? When the time comes, even if you don't die...... When that day comes, it's better to be dead!

After a few days, the people in Zhuangzi were panicked, there was no good news, and then there was bad news one after another.

It is said that Luo Hongying lost the battle, and the barbarians have invaded Dingzhou.

It is said that the Mu family army was ambushed and suffered heavy losses.

Reputedly......

Even in the current situation, all kinds of legends still reached Gu Wan's ears one by one.

"Princess, did the barbarians really win?"

Bao Qin's face was ugly - she and her sister lost their parents and became homeless people, and were adopted by Orchid, because the barbarians came, killed all the men in the village, and burned the whole village, in her heart, the barbarians were all devils, and she couldn't help but be afraid.

"Don't worry, they won't win."

Gu Wan's voice was very flat, but there was no doubt that Baoqin and Wang Gang did not go to their own Zhuangzi. Instead, she followed herself, and at this time, she regretted that she shouldn't have brought them with her in the first place. If something really happens, they will be much safer when they are alone outside. After all, no one cares whether a little girl from a slave is dead or alive.

"Rest early, don't think too much, it will pass." It's too late to say anything now, only waiting. Gu Wan comforted a few words, then sent Baoqin back and slept with her clothes.

The wind roared. Bao Sheng borrowed a bean candle to collect the soles of his little master's shoes, but in half a night, she pricked her fingers more than a dozen times, but she didn't know. I don't know how long it took, Bao Sheng's eyelids began to fight, and the lights outside suddenly turned on, and the flow of people surged.

Bao Sheng stood up straight, and heard someone shouting, "The prince is here." ”

Mu Yanzhao took a body of snowflakes, and when he entered the house, he had already washed his face, but he didn't change his clothes, and he didn't dare to reach out to hug his daughter-in-law: "I'm dirty." It's still cold, don't get up. ”

Gu Wan reached out and held his fingers, tightly, feeling the warm breath, a heart floating in the air, finally fell back to his chest. Mu Qi smiled: "Miss me?" ”

"I really want to." Gu Wan nodded seriously, with a serious expression on her face, and said again, "I miss you very much!" ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ]
