Chapter 269: Sending a letter is important, but your life is even more important
February 13, the vernal equinox.
Gan Qiongying and the others finally settled down in the mountain completely, there is a long row of houses behind Jishi Temple, all of which are used to house the victims, these victims will not live on the mountain for a long time, and they will go down the mountain to find a way to survive in a little more than a month.
For those who can't find a way to survive here, the people of Jishiji Temple will send someone to lead them to the south again.
And Gan Qiongying and they placed in the most remote house in the mountain behind Jishi Temple, although the house is not newly built, and there is no furnishings in the house, but this is where a lay disciple of Jishi Temple once lived.
This disciple has now passed away because he joined the army during the border war and never returned.
It's just that he once sent a letter back saying that the things in his house were to be disposed of, and all the money and property were donated to the temple.
Horse leather shroud without relatives and no reason.
Now that Gan Qiongying and the others moved in, they simply cleaned up and lit the fire again, and the house became warm.
There is even an earthen kang that can warm up the whole house just by burning firewood.
Gan Qiongying couldn't afford to linger on the earthen kang every day, and the daily food was specially sent by the small monks of the temple, and she and Gan Lin were idle all of a sudden.
On the contrary, Imperial Doctor Xiao has never been idle, he is busy every day, and there are also those shadow guards, because they are very good and fast, they are often lent out by Jishi Temple to save people or give them away.
And Gan Qiongying didn't lend everyone out this time, leaving one to prepare to deliver the letter.
Before leaving, Gan Qiongying explained seriously: "You go with a letter, but you must not let anyone know where you are from." ”
"Shadow Nine, I heard Shadow One talk about you, and I know that Shadow Eight is your brother, so I handed over the task of delivering the letter to you this time, and after sending the letter, I don't need to teach you how to get rid of people."
"Don't rush back, you can turn around and go to Qinzhou to see your brother."
The group of shadow guards under Gan Qiongying have been rescuing everywhere for a period of time, although no one was injured, but everyone has been strong.
Gan Qiongying does not regard them as real subordinates, but only as a group of partners who live and die together.
These people didn't have any relatives around them from the beginning, and only Shadow Eight and Shadow Nine were brothers in the entire team, but they didn't usually keep in touch.
At the beginning, Gan Qiongying didn't know much about the shadow guards around her, if she had known that Ying Ba and Ying Jiu were brothers, she would never have sent Ying Ba to the eldest princess of Hui'an.
This time it was just taking this opportunity to reunite their brothers, Gan Qiongying sat on the kang very seriously, looking at the tall and mediocre man kneeling in front of her, and even revealing some honest temperament.
explained: "This trip is a long way, and no one can guarantee that there will be no forces that rob and kill us on the way. ”
"You must remember that everything is to save your life, and although it is important to send a letter, your life is even more important."
Gan Qiongying has no way to instill her thoughts into these ancients, they always have a completely different loyalty from modern people, and they can die for Gan Qiongying at any time.
Even if Gan Qiongying has now fallen from a princess to an ordinary person who hides in Tibet and can only parasitize in the temple, they have always had no disobedience or questioning of all Gan Qiongying's dispatches and orders.
But the more this is the case, the more Gan Qiongying cherishes the lives of these people, she can't make everyone understand the preciousness of life, but she doesn't follow the local customs and let them really become her vassals.
Gan Qiongying was supposed to send the letter back a few days ago, but they were all out to help the victims, and they had been going around for many days, and Gan Qiongying had no way to let them go out of the mountain to deliver the letter in that situation.
So after a few days of delay, until they were now almost rested enough to resume their activities, and they were completely settled, they took out the letter that had been written for a long time and prepared to hand it over to Ying Jiu to send.
"I heard from Yingyi that you are the best at light skills, your feet are very fast, and the pursuers are first-class."
"I don't need you to pursue and assassinate anyone for me, I just need you to use your skills to save your own life."
"Now that I'm down to where I am, I can't afford to lose any of you." Gan Qiongying opened her arms calmly, she was wearing a navy blue monk's robe, and the rabbit fur hat that Gan Lin bought for her on her head was still on.
Although her complexion is ruddy, her appearance is still ruddy, her lips are red and her teeth are white, and her eyebrows are delicate, but she is indeed no longer the golden and noble princess.
"And this time the letter is not as simple as usual, I can't assure you what kind of reaction the other party will have."
Although Gan Qiongying firmly believes that Lihua will never change, she has always planned for the worst.
She said to Ying Jiu: "You get up, don't kneel me, I have a child in my belly, and it is too hard to talk to you with my head down." Come and sit next to me. ”
Although Gan Qiongying's belly is not very bulging, since she knew that she had a child, she was extremely careful in what she did, and took care of herself like a pregnant woman who was about to give birth.
Everyone around her knew that she was pregnant, and although Ying Jiu engraved in her bones the creed that she must kneel when talking to her master, and that she must not get up when her master explains things.
But Gan Qiongying said that her stomach was not suitable for bending, and Ying Jiu's honest face showed a little tangled, but she quickly stood up in obedience to Gan Qiongying's wishes.
He did not sit next to Gan Qiongying, but stood in front of Gan Qiongying.
Gan Qiongying sighed: "You are so tall, my neck is about to be broken, you just sit here and listen to me two words, these words are very important, you must remember every word clearly." ”
Ying Jiu sat awkwardly not far from Gan Qiongying's side, her ass only half glued to the edge of the kang.
Gan Qiongying didn't force it anymore, straightened herself, and said seriously: "I want you to send the letter to the colt, you have been by my side for so long, you must have seen that the pony's real appearance is exactly the same as Jinchuan Proton." ”
"But the two of them are so similar that even I can't tell them apart at a distance, and I have to look at each other to recognize my colt."
