Chapter 035: Grass and Rivers
The people settled down in the inn. .⒉3TT.
Due to Achen's advance arrangement, 6 Yingquan and the others were much more convenient, and not long after entering the room, the hot meal was served.
As in Haoguo before, in order to ensure everyone's safety, only two upper rooms were still opened. The meals were all placed in the large room, and the five of them sat around the small round table, silently and began to feast.
After all, before they lived in the inn, they lived on dry food all the way, even if they ate too much delicious food, they would get tired of eating too much, not to mention the dry food that could only be used to satisfy their stomachs?
Therefore, in the face of the delicacies with Jingguo's characteristics, several people invariably chose to eat without saying a word, and finished the meal with one mind, until Xiao Er removed the leftovers, and they came back to their senses from the full meal just now.
The room was still filled with the smell of food, Yun Yao got up and walked to the window, opening the window lattice, so that the room could be filled with fresh air.
Feeling the night breeze of Jingguo, Yun Yao only felt that there was more fierceness than Haoguo, and quickly dispelled the stuffiness in the room. After a long time, she turned and said:
"Sisi, you go downstairs to the shopkeeper to borrow a stove and jar, and decoct medicine for Madame. ”
"Isn't there a well-made pill?, why is it so troublesome to decoct the medicine?" Hearing this, 6 Yingquan asked puzzled, a little curious.
After all, the purpose of Yun Yao's painstaking efforts to make pills was to make it easier to walk on the road.
"It's meant to prevent us from spending the night in the wilderness, just in case. Now in the guest house, if there are conditions, you naturally can't be too wronged by the child in your belly. Yun Yao chuckled, "What's more, it's been a lot of bumps recently, and it's hard to settle down today, I plan to make up for you well, and add a soothing herb to the fetal medicine, so that you can sleep well tonight." ”
Sisi nodded, went in response, and went downstairs to boil medicine for 6 Yingquan, and Achen had already stayed in the dark outside the house, observing every move around to prevent all kinds of accidents.
In the room, Yun Yao took out the map that Yingquan had drawn earlier, spread it on the table, looked at the route determined by Gu Qingming in advance, looked at it for a while, and said:
"We are in Liangxu County, and according to the current footsteps, it will take more than half a month to cross Jingguo to reach Yuguo. Yingquan's stomach is getting heavier and heavier, and our degree will only get slower and slower in the future. ”
"After more than half a month's work, His Royal Highness King Yi should still have a way to deal with it. Gu Qingming opened his mouth and said, "General Dewey is also a veteran of the battlefield, and his ability to march and fight is not weak, and according to His Royal Highness, Du Jiangheng's son is also a young hero." What's more, Empress Dowager Qin's reinforcements didn't arrive at the Yiguo border so quickly, so there would be no problems for the time being. ”
"It's good that you know these things, the only thing I'm worried about now is the child in Yingquan's belly. Yun Yao said, then turned her head to look at Yingquan, her belly in her early five months was already very large.
The most important thing is that 6 Yingquan was originally injured in Ning Palace, and later he was seriously injured in Yiwang Palace, so he injured the foundation, his body and bones were already weaker, and he was still in danger when he was pregnant with a child.
"You don't have to worry about me. 6 Hearing this, Yingquan smiled and said, "Although I care about this child very much, and His Highness also values him, I can only say that he came at the wrong time. Even if it is one step earlier, or one step later, there will not be such a dilemma as now. Let's go according to the original plan, and as for the child, count it as his creation. ”
In fact, 6 Yingquan didn't say another reason, the reason why she dared to take such a risk was because she was accompanied by Yun Yao. Yun Yao's medical skills are known to her, as long as it is not that kind of devastating accident, if she wants to save this child, she can still do it for Yun Yao.
Like Qi Shuning, who has had a miscarriage many times, she has long since become a habitual miscarriage, and Yun Yao can also help her adjust and nourish her, not to mention her?
She didn't say it now, because she didn't want to put pressure on Yun Yao, she knew that Yun Yao had a lot of thoughts about the alliance, and she didn't want to put the burden of this child on Yun Yao's body anymore. The reason why I said that I looked at this child's creation was also to comfort Yun Yao's heart, after all, according to Yun Yao's temperament, it was impossible to really sit idly by.
How could Yun Yao not understand 6 Yingquan's thoughts? The two of them have gone all the way from Ning Palace to today, they are called master servants, they are actually sisters, and they both regard each other as their closest relatives, how could she let Yingquan down?
was about to say something, but he heard a commotion in the downstairs lobby of the inn, and it seemed that many people had come in, making Yun Yao and Gu Qingming feel nervous involuntarily.
In the lobby below, the tables and chairs collided with each other, and there was a clanging sound, and it seemed that some heavy objects were smashing on the table, and after a long time, these noisy voices stopped, and the flattering voice of the shopkeeper was heard:
"Yo, uncles, this is how you came to the shop, is it to eat or stay in the store?"
"Shopkeeper, bring you all the good wine and food, uncle, I want the best, and I have the silver!" The downstairs voice roared, not afraid of disturbing the rest of the inn.
"Shopkeeper, we also need some wine and food here, move quickly, the benefits are indispensable to you!" another slightly younger man also spoke, and casually took out a silver ingot from his bosom and threw it into the shopkeeper's hand, with great precision.
"Yes, yes, ladies and gentlemen, please wait, the wine and food will come soon. The shopkeeper spoke, and then instructed Xiao Er to hurry up and go to the kitchen to urge food.
It didn't take long for the downstairs to be quiet, and Yun Yao was already standing by the door at this time, keeping her ears close to the door, listening to the movement below.
"I don't know who the people in the lobby downstairs are, they all sound very arrogant, Sisi is still downstairs, there won't be any problems, right?" Yun Yao said with some concern.
"These people sound like people in the rivers and lakes, that is, what the people often call green forest heroes. They are proficient in martial arts, uninhibited, and although their behavior is disorderly, most of them are chivalrous and righteous, and they are not the kind of people who commit great treachery and evil. Gu Qingming judged based on the noise he heard earlier, "In this way, don't come out of the room for the two of you, I'll go down and see how the medicine is doing." Achen is protecting in the shadows, don't worry. ”
Gu Qingming briefly admonished a few words, then opened the door and walked out.
Yun Yao locked the door again, then put away all the maps on the table, stuffed them into the baggage, and then helped 6 Yingquan to sit down on the bed, but the vigilance in his eyes never relaxed.
"The people in the rivers and lakes have nothing to do with us, in fact, you don't have to be so nervous. 6 Yingquan felt Yun Yao's tense body, so he spoke disapprerovitously.
"Everything is unpredictable until it's certain. Yun Yao said, "If it really has nothing to do with us, it's okay, I'm afraid they are coming for us." Don't forget, Your Highness's escape from the capital is tantamount to completely tearing your face with the Empress Dowager Qin, and we will definitely be exposed. ”
"So you're worried that these people were all bought by the Empress Dowager Qin to harm us?" 6 Yingquan reacted, and his heart was inexplicably a little nervous.
The court and the rivers and lakes have always been two areas where the well water does not violate the river water, the court has an emperor, the rivers and lakes have an alliance leader, one is in the court, and the other is in the opposition, each of them is in charge of different groups of people, and they follow different rules.
6 Yingquan never thought that these Jianghu people could have anything to do with her before, but she forgot that Jianghu people are also people, and they also have their own weaknesses and lifeblood.
And the supreme woman of Ning Palace, she is the only person in the world who can provide these things outside her body.
"Maybe it is, maybe it isn't, but there's always nothing wrong with being careful. Yun Yao said, "Listening to the movement just now, there should be a lot of people coming, but it doesn't seem to be a group, because there are several people who let the shopkeeper serve the food." If it has nothing to do with us, we can sleep peacefully tonight, but we have to leave as soon as the morning dawns, after all, things on the rivers and lakes are also swords and swords, complex and changeable, we should not involve too much. ”
Yun Yao and 6 Yingquan were talking, but there was a sound of footsteps at the door of the room, which could be heard clearly.
The footsteps gradually approached, and Yun Yao involuntarily took out the silver needle, held it in her hand, and stood in front of Yingquan with a wary expression. As the door was pushed open and Gu Qingming's figure appeared, she breathed a sigh of relief and put her mind at ease.
It's as if with Gu Qingming here, she will never have to worry about her safety.
"What's the matter? What are the people downstairs?" Yun Yao asked anxiously.
"It's okay, I've inquired, and it's not for us. Gu Qingming shook his head lightly and said, "Listening to their conversation, it seems that they are all going to the capital of Jingguo to participate in a grand event." This event is held by King Jingguo side by side, and I heard that it is held every three years in autumn. ”
"King Jing Guo's side-by-side?" Yun Yao was a little stunned when she suddenly heard this unfamiliar name, "That should be a person from the imperial court, and it is of the same status as King Jing, how can there be a grand gathering of people from the rivers and lakes?"
"Empress Dowager Qin's meticulous work is pervasive, and she can lurk around King Hao for decades without being revealed, how can Jingguo be an exception? Gu Qingming frowned and said, "It's just that this side by side king held a grand event, in the name of martial arts friends, and he has never done anything to touch the interests of the Empress Dowager Qin." What's more, King Side by Side is just a local title in Jingguo, which was canonized by King Jing, and was not enshrined and recognized by the imperial court. ”
"I see. Yun Yao nodded, "Thinking about it, the Empress Dowager Qin probably thought that the people in the rivers and lakes couldn't make any waves, no matter how high their martial arts skills were, they were always helpless in the face of thousands of troops." However, since these people are not coming at us, there is no need for us to meddle in our affairs, so we will rest here for the night and continue our journey tomorrow. ”
determined the purpose of those Jianghu people, and everyone gradually relaxed. It didn't take long for Sisi to come up with the decoction of the medicine, and the strong aroma of the medicine filled the room.
Yun Yao carefully checked the freshly boiled medicine and made sure that there was no problem before giving it to 6 Yingquan.
