Chapter 173: Spring Heart Sprouts

Two days after Ning Xidrunk and the others arrived in Xichu, Xiao Zhen reappeared with a reply from the war court. [Full text reading. 】

There was not much content on the letter, but Yi Chenjing immediately decided to set off to rush back to the imperial capital, and he didn't want to wait for a moment, Bai Qige also agreed to his decision after reading the letter, Concubine Jing's hiding place has been secretly attacked many times, but fortunately, there are no major incidents in the battle court and Qiao Qingxu, only Jin Zhaoyi suffered some skin injuries. The letter also mentioned that Emperor Yao sent General Puppet with more than 100 forbidden troops to protect, but Yi Chenjing was worried that the enemy hidden in the shadows would take the left side of the door to inflict harm, and a filial piety instigated him, and he couldn't wait anyway.

In desperation, Fu Chu had no choice but to ask Xiao Yu to bring the letter back and tell Zhan Ting and Qiao Qingxu their return route, and the two sides marched at the same time, striving to meet as soon as possible on the way.

The idle Yiye Villa suddenly became nervous, preparing the car and preparing things, checking the contacts on the road in advance, and finding out the situation of Yi Chenxuan's ears and eyes...... The young Ye Huawan is worthy of being the owner of the village, and all her actions are orderly, fully showing her capable side, only in the face of Yi Chenjing will she instantly recover her girlish mentality, and her twisted appearance made Shen Yuqiu roll her eyes, and Ning Xi was drunk and the others laughed.

When he left Xichu, the poison doctor Shen Yuqiu did not see him off, Yi Chenjing vaguely heard the familiar song fluttering melodiously when he stepped on the boat, and he was silent for a while, bowing three times in the direction of Qingming Mountain, as for whether to worship the late national teacher Shen Junfang or Shen Yuqiu who saved Bai Qige's life, it is unknown.

In a desperate situation, there is hope for a comeback, Yi Chenjing should be happy, but he can't be happy at all, and he sticks to Bai Qige's side like a treasure, and he is drunk and says that he has to go on the road together, considering that he has traveled all over Zhongzhou all year round and has a wide range of contacts, Fu Chu and Bai Qige both agreed, Yi Chenjing's opposition was invalid, and he could only accept it without saying a word.

The car was a very simple two-horse carriage, Fu Chu drove the car, the other four people sat in the car, and Feng Wujiang followed behind another carriage full of goods.

The position of the four of them when sitting in the car is fixed, Bai Qige is on the same side as Yi Chenjing, opposite is Ye Huawan, Ye Huawan is next to Ning Xi drunk, this is the position that Yi Chenjing tried his best to discharge, not only to prevent Ning Xi drunk and Bai Qige next to each other, but also to avoid Bai Qige from seeing Ning Xidrunk's disgusting face as soon as he looked up. Thinking about her so carefully, Bai Qige could naturally see it, and she couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous at the same time, Yi Chenjing's exclusivity to her was too obvious, and she almost swallowed her in her stomach to prevent anyone from seeing it.

The route arranged by Fu Chu is mainly in lively towns, and there are many mixed people, and Bai Qige and Yi Chenjing are not easy to be found when they sit in the car; Second, even if you are really targeted, it is convenient to take advantage of the chaos to escape, which can be said to be the safest place in the most dangerous place.

"Further forward is Jicheng, the only way from Western Chu to the imperial capital. A friend in Jicheng said that there were many strangers in the city some time ago, and they wandered around the city without doing anything on weekdays, and it seemed that they were the eyes and ears of the five princes. Fu Chu pointed to the city gate in the distance, "It's not early, we are going to spend the night in the city tonight, and the foothold is provided by the proprietress of Yonghe Cloth Village, and you can see her at the city gate in a while." ”

"The proprietress of Yonghe Cloth Village...... It's Aunt Zhong. Ning Xi touched his chin and pondered, "Last year, I bought some high-grade silk materials from her to sell as imperial gongbu, and the price was really ......good."

Bai Qige was speechless for a moment.

Ning Xidrunk is good in both personality and aspect, but this profiteer's nature is a little flattering, but think about it, no business, no treachery, no treachery, no business, the more proficient he is in this way, the more it proves that he is a genuine businessman. As if inadvertently glancing at Yi Chenjing, Bai Qige sighed secretly.

From beginning to end, Yi Chenjing was doubting Ning Xidrunk's identity, the reason was nothing more than Ning Xidrunk's peculiar eyes and being too close to her, no matter how she defended Ning Xidrunk, it would be useless. In fact, even if you would rather be drunk than be a remnant of Cheyenne. He is now immersed in business and has no distractions, if it weren't for the fact that he was a confidant because of his like-minded temperament, he wouldn't have taken care of this mess.

During his contemplation, the carriage had already arrived in front of the gate of Jicheng, and when he heard Fu Chu stop the car to greet him, he guessed that the person was probably Aunt Zhong, the proprietress of Yonghe Cloth Village.

Without waiting for Bai Qige to get up and get out of the car, Ning Xixi was drunk and jumped out first, and specially closed the car door when leaving, obviously not letting Bai Qige show up. Soon, Ning Xi's drunken and elegant voice also joined the conversation, and after a while, the wheels rolled, and they drove directly into the city, and it probably took a cup of tea to stop.

"Sister Bai, come down, it's safe here." The car door opened, and Fu Chu's bright smile appeared in front of him.

Bai Qige and Ning Xidrunk got out of the car one after another, and after waiting for a long time, they didn't see Ye Hua coming down late, and when they looked over, they found that the little girl actually fell asleep against the car window at some point.

"In the past two days, Miss Ye has been busy contacting friends everywhere day and night, and she is probably very sleepy at this time, let her continue to sleep." Gently pushing Yi Chenjing's arm, Bai Qige lowered her voice, "Chenjing, carry her into the room, you will catch a cold if you sleep like this all night." ”

Yi Chenjing frowned: "There are so many people, why do you have to hug me." ”

"Don't be grumpy, you don't hug anyone. Fu Chu is so thin and weak, where can he hold it. ”

Isn't there still that unscrupulous merchant? Yi Chenjing just wanted to speak, but suddenly found that Ning Xidrunk had already gone to the side of the courtyard to study a vat of dyed cloth, and he was the only strong and powerful man in front of him.

Taking a deep breath and holding the fire in his stomach, Yi Chenjing glanced at Bai Qige, silently picked up Ye Huawan, and entered one of the wings under the guidance of Aunt Zhong. I don't know if Ye Huawan is pretending to be asleep or really not sleeping, Yi Chenjing wanted to put her on the bed and leave quickly, but Ye Huawan stretched out her arms to wrap her arms around Yi Chenjing's neck, and she had the potential to never let go.

Yi Chenjing bent down and stood in front of the bed, unable to stand up and let go of people, embarrassed and depressed.

Fu Chu and Bai Qige were talking to Aunt Zhong outside the door, without thinking that there were two people in the room, Yi Chenjing stood in front of the bed with his neck stiff, and flew straight to Ning Xi drunk with a series of belly slanders.

"Big man......" Ye Huawan's eyelids moved, and suddenly showed a childlike satisfied smile, "You promise not to drive me away......"

"Promised, you let it go first." Yi Chenjing casually perfunctory, tried to pull Ye Huawan's arm, and still held on to him. Looking back at the outside of the room, Bai Qige was still chatting unconsciously, Yi Chenjing was anxious and angry, blocking Ye Huawan's ears and shouting in a low voice: "Qige, come in,"

Hearing the voice, Bai Qige and Fu Chu looked at each other, stepped into the room and saw the situation in front of them, and couldn't help but cover their mouths and smile and bend over, Ye Huawan was lying on the bed, his arm hooked Yi Chenjing's neck, and Yi Chenjing, who was full of iron face, couldn't stand up straight and couldn't bow down, staring at the two of them in embarrassment.

Fu Chu smiled enough before he walked lightly to the bed, holding Ye Huawan's dark little head and kissing it lightly on his forehead, as if he had cast a spell, Ye Huawan immediately let go of his arm and turned over, and fell asleep sweetly.

Withdrawing from the room and closing the door, Fu Chu shook his head distressedly: "Brother Chen, don't blame Ye Zi, she has been used to it since she was a child." My aunt passed away not long after giving birth to her, and my uncle was almost doting on Yezi, and he had to hug and kiss her every night before going to bed. After the uncle left, Ye Zi's sadness eased for a long time, but he couldn't quit this habit...... Don't look at her smiling heartlessly for a day, in fact, she is very lonely in her heart. ”

"With such a considerate senior brother as you, she can't say anything about feeling lonely anymore." Leaving vague words, Yi Chenjing calmly pulled Bai Qige, who was still holding back a smile, "Shut up, don't laugh." ”

"You can care if you laugh or not." Bai Qige stepped on it.

There was a sneer and laughter on the side, and Aunt Zhong, who was already a wife, sighed with emotion: "The princess is really a hearty character, I thought that the women in the palace were the kind of young ladies who walked with their heads down and spoke in a suppressed voice,"

Yi Chenjing looked at Fu Chu inquiringly, and the latter waved his hand: "Aunt Zhong is my own person, I can trust it, and I didn't hide the identities of Brother Chen and Sister Bai." ”

"The Seventh Prince is suspicious of me." Zhong Gu was not angry, and her hearty laughter was not inferior to that of the man, "Don't worry, my life was saved by the poison doctor, and the people in the rivers and lakes are talking about righteousness, even if I die, I will not do anything sorry for the poison doctor." Not only me, but also many people who have been favored by the poison doctor or the old owner along the way, the Seven Princes and the Imperial Concubine are the distinguished guests of the poison doctors, and we must do our best to help. ”

The grace of dripping water should be reciprocated by a spring, this saying is a joke in the palace at all, how many people like Qi will take revenge, and how many good people will not be rewarded with unjust death. Listening to Aunt Zhong's words, Yi Chenjing couldn't help but sigh, saying that the royal family was the most noble, but those people in the palace couldn't even do the least good, but it was better for these so-called people in the rivers and lakes to be righteous.

It's just that I don't know how much these people can help, and whether they know that the enemy they are facing is also the prince of a country.

"Okay, without further ado, I prepared some coarse tea and light rice in the front hall, and it will be cold after chatting for a while." Zhong Gu pointed to the front hall and shouted to Ning Xidrunk in the other courtyard, "Boss Ning, seven years of blue and white aging, fresh Luchuan river fish, you can't eat it if you go late,"

Ning Xidrunk immediately came to his senses when he heard that he had eaten and drunk, and rushed to everyone's side in three steps and two steps, but a pair of eyes frequently looked towards the front hall.

"You black-hearted person, you have to make some cheap money to get here to the old lady before you are willing to go, last year's car cloth you just grinded away four more horses, this year you are embarrassed to eat me for nothing." In the face of Ning Xi's drunkenness, Zhong Gu was obviously much more spicy, and a series of laughs and scolds covered her face.

Ning Xi was drunk and pretended not to hear it, but his steps were obviously much faster, and before Zhong Gu could say the second wave of laughter and scolding, he had already rushed into the front hall, which made Fu Chu and the others laugh again.

It's like a way to escape from the hunt. It's almost the same as making friends and wandering around. Yi Chenjing walked at the end of the crowd, raising his hand to hold Bai Qige in front of him, his eyes were deep.

Bai Qige understood what he meant, he had never come into contact with these ordinary people, let alone what the rivers and lakes were talking about, with his prudence and caution, he couldn't fully trust Zhong Gu, not to mention that Ning Xi was drunk by his side. After a long period of deceitful environment, he has long lost his trust in strangers.

Gently holding the warm palm, Bai Qige slowed down and walked side by side with Yi Chenjing, and that moment seemed to be his firmest support.

Three thousand worlds, thousands of journeys, there is one person who will never leave each other, and there is nothing to fear in life and death.

Yi Chenjing took a deep breath softly in his palm, tilted his head slightly, and only smiled safely and cleanly for one person.

It was quiet and windless, and the sunset was gorgeous, and it seemed to be a very smooth starting point, but outside the courtyard wall where no one was looking, a figure lurked in a dark corner, and the cuffs were cold.

There is no easy way for them to await them.
