at night.
Li Qinyuan did not bring a doctor with him. There was only a close confidant who knew some medical skills. After diagnosing and treating Gu Wuyou, he handed over to Li Qinyuan: "Madam is fine, it's just that you haven't rested for a long time, and you will faint when you are exhausted."
"The subordinate ordered someone to prepare some liquid food, which can be used when the lady wakes up."
"Um."
Li Qinyuan held Gu Wuyou's hand, and his eyes did not leave an inch.
The cronies didn't bother him anymore, and bowed their hands and exited the tent.
At this time, it was late at night, and everything was silent. The group of them camped and rested. The soldiers outside were still dutifully guarding them, lest someone attacked. In the camp, Li Qinyuan looked at Gu Wuyou, who was exhausted. frowning.
The heart is like being cut with a knife.
He touched Gu Wuyou's face, pursed his thin lips tightly, his eyes were complicated and painful, and his fingertips gently brushed her eyebrows, as if trying to smooth her crease.
When Gu Wuyou's face was finally less tense, he got up and poured a pot of hot water, intending to give her a good wash so that she could sleep more comfortably, but only when he was undressing her did he realize that There were countless small holes on her right arm.
Thinking of the hairpin that she held tightly in her hand when she was in a coma.
Li Qinyuan's hands froze in the air, his pupils shrank suddenly, his half-opened lips trembled slightly, and his breathing suddenly became rapid... He stared blankly and fell into a drowsiness, but because of the previous action, the pain was twisted again. Gu Wuyou frowned.
It was as if my heart was being pierced by a needle after another.
He resisted the sourness in his heart, gritted his teeth and continued his previous actions.
The clothes had long been glued to the body with blood and could not be taken off at all. They could only cut them with scissors. Li Qinyuan carefully cut the sleeves for her, and then evenly spread the blood scabs on her with hot water and sprinkled medicine powder. When doing these things, her movements were very gentle, but even so, she could hear a few soft groans due to pain leaking from her throat.
She has been spoiled since she was a child, and even when she used to run around with him, he never let her suffer such an injury.
I don't know how she survived these days. From the capital to this place, it takes three days without sleep or rest. She is a weak woman who does not know martial arts and has to hide from people.
If she hadn't met him, would she have to run on like this, stab her arm with a hairpin when she was so sleepy, until she was exhausted and couldn't get up again...
When Li Qinyuan thought of that scene, his heart felt unbearably uncomfortable, his eyes were tight, he took a deep breath, got up and went to get some clean clothes, and when he was ready to put it on, he kept holding her hand and sitting beside the bed. Without blinking, she waited silently for her to wake up.
Gu Wuyou was probably still in a tense state, and even though he was sleepy, he woke up not long after falling asleep.
The moment she woke up, she noticed the quilt covering her body and the bright candles in the house, and her first reaction was to find her hairpin, and when she heard Li Qinyuan's voice coming from her side, "Don't be afraid, Manman, You're safe, you're fine, darling."
The man's generous palm gently patted her trembling back, as if to soothe her anxiety.
"Li, Qinyuan?" Gu Wuyou raised his head in his arms and stared blankly at this familiar face. His voice was hoarse because he hadn't rested for several days, causing his tone to become weird.
She seemed a little unsure, and raised her sour hand to put it on his cheek.
When he noticed the warmth over there, his long eyelashes trembled slightly, and he shouted again with blurred eyes, "Li Qinyuan?"
"Um,"
Li Qinyuan's eyes were gentle, and his hands were still on top of her head, stroking gently, "It's me."
The simple three words made Gu Wuyou, who had been tense for several days in a row, suddenly reddened her eyes. She suddenly hugged the man tightly, just like a child who finds his family and can freely vent his grievances. She also cried, "I finally found you."
She cried too much.
The voice was also intermittent, "There was an accident in the capital, King Jin and Zhao Chengyou rebelled, the prince's brother was locked up, and the uncle was poisoned... Aunt, aunt and Changping were also under house arrest." Thinking of the situation in the capital, Gu Wuyou thought of himself brought that thing.
She suddenly wiped her tears with the back of her hand, let go of Li Qinyuan's embrace, and tossed and turned looking for the thing, almost getting out of bed with bare feet.
Li Qinyuan quickly stopped her, frowned and asked, "What are you looking for?"
Gu Wuyou said anxiously, "Have you seen the burden I've been carrying?"
Li Qinyuan naturally saw it. When she passed out, she was still holding on to the burden. It was he who coaxed her softly into her ear for a while before she let go... Although he was also curious about what was there. What, but Gu Wuyou didn't wake up, all his thoughts were on her, so naturally he didn't look at what was there.
He will only pass the bag to the side after being asked, "What's inside, you're so nervous."
Gu Wuyou finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the burden. Her tense back became soft again. She untied the burden and took out the box inside. Under Li Qinyuan's gaze, she placed the box on his back. in hand.
"what is this?"
Li Qinyuan opened the box and his face changed slightly when he saw the contents inside.
Gu Wuyou explained to him, "It was given to me by my aunt. She asked me to bring this thing to you."
Li Qinyuan understood what Empress Wang meant. Xiao Ke and Zhao Chengyou wanted him to go back to Beijing now and kill them on the charge of treason with the prince. Now that he has this jade seal, he can naturally enter Beijing in the name of "King Qin saves the driver". .
It can be said that the appearance of this jade seal suddenly turned things around. Thinking of his little wife running all the way, just to get this thing into his hands, Li Qinyuan's lips moved, and he couldn't say anything, he could only stretch it out. He stretched out his hands and held her tightly in his arms.
Gu Wuyou leaned against his arms quietly.
But it was only for a moment of warmth, she gritted her teeth and pushed Li Qinyuan's arms away first, then raised her head under the candlelight, looking at him with a firm expression, "You take the jade seal and go first, the situation in the capital is not good now. , they must know that I have run out, and I am afraid that something will happen to them."
"how about you?"
At this time, Li Qinyuan was really reluctant to leave her, but he also knew that this was not the time for children to grow in love.
Where is Gu Wuyou willing? She has been running around for several days, and now the string in her mind is still taut. Of course, she hopes to have her husband to accompany her when she is weakest... But the capital is in trouble, and her family and friends are all there.
She can't be so selfish.
Instead, she wanted to follow him, but in her current physical condition, the people following her were rather worrying.
Taking a deep breath, Gu Wuyou smiled brightly, just like when he sent Li Qinyuan away, "I'm fine, you can send a few people to protect me, and I'll go home after I rest." She said After finishing, he held Li Qinyuan's hand, looked at him without blinking, and said softly, "Li Qinyuan, I'm waiting for you at home, you have to come back safely."
Seeing the smile on her face, Li Qinyuan replied in a hoarse voice, "...Okay."
The soldiers outside the door have been waiting for orders, and when Li Qinyuan went out with Yuxi, his face changed.
Li Qinyuan didn't say much, and ordered in a deep voice, "Your Majesty is in trouble, you follow me back to the capital to help you..." He also said with Zuo Shi, the young general who had previously diagnosed Gu Wuyou, "You bring a few people to stay with you. Protect Madam and send her back to the palace safely."
"Yes!"
After the command was completed, the officers and men gathered up and set off, leaving more than a dozen officers and men in the left room.
When Li Qinyuan was about to mount his horse, he turned his head and glanced behind him. The tent was very quiet, as if no one was there, but he knew in his heart that his Manman must be hiding behind the curtain and secretly watching him... The hand holding the reins closed Tight, he gritted his teeth and retracted his gaze, and then said solemnly: "Go!"
soon.
He left here with thousands of soldiers.
As Gu Wuyou listened to the horse's hooves going away, he couldn't help but lift the curtain, put his hands on the tent, and looked at the man who was leaving, his red lips pursed, his face taut, and he refused to reveal a single expression.
Zuo room persuaded softly: "Madam, it's windy outside, you go first."
Recalling the pulse condition he had seen during the pulse diagnosis earlier, he hesitated for a while and then said in a low voice, "Just now, my subordinates checked your pulse for you, and found that your pulse condition is smooth like a pearl, like a happy pulse." Seeing Gu Wuyou suddenly looking over Looking at the sight, Zuo Shi hurriedly handed over, "It's just that my subordinates are not serious doctors, but I learned some fur from them at the beginning, so I'm not sure."
Gu Wuyou stared blankly at his belly.
Happy pulse…
Thinking of being lethargic and sour for a while now, yes, even her menstrual period hasn't come for a long time.
"He, is he alright?" Gu Wuyou's face turned pale and suddenly became a little nervous. She has been traveling for a long time and has not been able to rest well, so she doesn't know if something will happen.
When Zuo Shi heard this, he said with a warm voice, "I didn't notice anything unusual when my subordinate took your pulse before, you can rest for a few days, and when you return to the capital, ask the doctor to take good care of you, you will definitely not. Something happened."
Gu Wuyou was relieved, "Thank you, General Zuo."
She didn't say any more, turned around and entered the tent, resting her hands on her belly. She didn't expect that the child she had been waiting for for so long would appear at such a time... The candle light flickered while she sat on the bed, low Nodding his head, he said softly, "You have to keep your father safe and sound."
"This time,"
"I want our family of three to live well."
in the palace.
Xiao Ke's face turned a little worse after listening to the replies from several cronies.
He was anxious in his heart, and his footsteps became flustered, pacing in the hall, and said anxiously: "Now Li Qinyuan is back, and Leping can't find it, that jade seal, I searched the entire imperial palace and couldn't find it, it must be by that The girl took it!"
He got angry when he talked about this, and accused Zhao Chengyou, "I said earlier that Leping should be guarded separately. As long as she is there, I will forgive Li Qinyuan and don't dare to act rashly. Let Li Qinyuan hold the jade seal, so what's the use of us doing so much?!"
Zhao Chengyou's face was not very good-looking, but he was not as flustered as Xiao Ke.
Compared with Xiao Ke's anxiety about Yuxi, he cares more about Gu Wuyou's safety. She is alone, holding such a thing, she must not be able to walk the official road... In the past few days, he has sent countless people to find them all. No trace of her.
I don't know what happened to her
Did something happen
What should she do if she encounters any wild beasts or wicked people in the wilderness? Thinking of this, he also regretted a little. If he knew that such a thing would happen, he should have protected her first.
"I'm talking to you, do you hear me?!" Xiao Ke, who used to be gentle in the past, has become more and more impatient because of the jade seal, especially when he heard that Li Qinyuan was already heading towards the capital, he was nervous again Another worry, almost never sleep well.
"His Royal Highness is questioning the minister here, it's better to let your uncle calm down."
Zhao Chengyou raised his dull eyes, and said lightly with Xiao Ke: "Don't Li Qinyuan go to Beijing, he's in a mess first."
Hearing this, Xiao Ke's expression turned a bit ugly.
His uncle is always a scumbag. In the past few days, I heard that Gu Wuyou might leave with the jade seal. He has come to him several times, asking him to ask the emperor to forgive their sins, but... How could he be forgiven for the things he did
He himself regretted it now, but it was difficult to ride a tiger, so he could only bite the bullet and move forward.
Seeing his ugly expression and struggling eyes, Zhao Chengyou reprimanded him as "trash" in his heart, but he still said, "You don't have to worry about it, maybe things are not as we imagined, I'll take a look at the arrangement outside. "
Time to go.
He said to Xiao Ke again, "Your Highness, as long as you sit in that position, no matter what the process is, others will only dare to compliment you."
Xiao Ke's eyes were locked and his lips were open. He understood Zhao Chengyou's implication... If Li Qinyuan really got the jade seal, then they couldn't just sit back and wait. The original plan was to keep those wives in order to let the ministers thank him after he was done. , so that they can support him willingly.
But now...
His face changed several times, and when Zhao Chengyou was walking out, he finally made a decision, gritted his teeth and called someone in.
Zhao Chengyou watched Xiao Ke's cronies go in and didn't say much. He directly called Changxi and asked him, "Is there any news?"
Changxi shook his head, saw his face darken, and said hurriedly: "Don't worry, no news may be good news... Leping County Master Ji Rentianxiang, there will be no accident."
Auspicious people
What kind of a lucky person is she, she met a bastard like him in her past life, and hurt her like that, and in this life, it reminds him of the past, doing such a thing... But what can he do? He knew he was an asshole and not worthy of her.
But assholes also have greed.
Even maggots in dark corners want to see the sunlight outside.
He also wanted to embrace her in his arms again and compensate her for everything he owed her.
Closing his eyes and suppressing the sourness in his eyes, Zhao Chengyou said, "Let Sheng Ze go to the clan and take the young lady away. If nothing happens, they can enjoy the glory and wealth with me. If I fail unfortunately, let them go incognito... I can be regarded as leaving a trace of blood for my mother."
Changxi was startled and looked up suddenly, "Master?!"
Zhao Chengyou didn't want to talk more, his voice was tired, "Go."
"… Yes."
After Changxi left, Cang She, a close associate of Xiao Ke, came out. Seeing Zhao Chengyou who was still outside, he hurriedly cupped his hands to greet him, "Master Zhao."
"Um."
Zhao Chengyou opened his eyes and his eyes fell on him, "Is Cang's guard going to Cheng'an Hall?"
Cang She was not surprised by his knowledge, he only thought that this matter was the result of His Highness's discussion with Lord Zhao. After all, for so long, His Highness trusted this Lord Zhao the most, and he had to discuss almost everything with him.
"Yes, His Highness asked me to guard those female dependents, and also asked the subordinates to speak to each household."
Zhao Chengyou hummed, knowing that Xiao Ke had made a decision, "There is a Mrs. Fu in Cheng'an Palace, who is from the Dingguo Gong's mansion, you should be more polite to her... When you go back out of the palace, you meet someone from Dingguo's mansion. , I also trouble Cang's guards to be polite."
"This… "
Cang She hesitated, but gritted her teeth and agreed, "My subordinates know."
