"It's inconvenient to talk to you in the palace that day - I haven't come to deliver medicine to you for the past two months, do you feel unwell?" Qin Sang asked her softly with concern.

Xiao Li shook his head.

Qin Sang thought for a while, then asked again: "Master Guoshi, what kind of medicine did he give you?"

"How do you know?!" Xiao Biqi said, smiling a little shyly: "Yes... I took the medicine that can give birth to children!"

Qin Sang also laughed, but bitterly, sighed: "...it's hard for him."

"Trouble-who?" Xiaoli asked suspiciously.

Is it Chen Yubai? But he is not difficult at all! He is so happy every night!

"...It's nothing." Qin Sang smiled and nodded her nose, "You silly girl!"

"Sister Qin Sang, is your shoulder injury better?" Xiao Li pulled her into the room, and dragged out a box of medicine she stole from Chen Yubai from under the desk, "These medicines are all for you! You take them back! "

Qin Sang opened the box and saw that the box was full of panacea prepared by the National Teacher's Office, which could treat both internal and external injuries.

"Okay." In order to reassure her, she also accepted it.

"Has the empress dowager got the totem of the Xuanwu Order? When are we going back to our hometown?" Xiao Li lowered his voice and asked excitedly.

Qin Sang put the medicine box aside, stroked her forehead, "Xiao Li, she is indeed our real grandmother."

Ji Xiaoli's elated anticipation dimmed, she looked at Qin Sang with her dark eyes, and after a moment of silence, she said softly: "If it's really your real grandmother, how could she hurt you with a knife?"

When Ji Xiaoli was a child, the old grandmother in Zhennan Palace hadn't died yet, every time Ji was hit by his father's family law, the old grandmother who was supported by the maid came tremblingly and hurriedly, gave them medicine, hugged them to fall Tears, tell them softly what was wrong this time, and not to do it again next time.

Even her, the old grandmother often took her to play in the garden and fed her sweets.

If it is the grandmother of the first line, how can she hurt the granddaughter of the first line

"She's not." Xiao Li shook his head, firmly denying.

Qin Sang was stunned for a moment, and smiled in a trance, but said nothing more.

Xiaoli... Xiaoli is the easiest to trust people, but also the least trustworthy.

"We'll talk about that later." Qin Sang asked with a smile, "Tell me: how did you get that picture?"

Speaking of this, Ji Xiaoli became proud, and showed Qin Sang the Xuanwu Token, and told her with a smile: "I don't know how to draw, so I drew it down, anyway, it's just a turtle—I can draw it better than me. Is this even better?"

Qin Sang looked at the majestic ancient beasts on the Xuanwu order, recalled the piece of white silk that the Empress Dowager Duanmi got, and couldn't help laughing for a moment.

The servant girl happened to bring lunch at this time, Qin Sang's hearing was good, and she heard footsteps in the corridor from a long distance away, so she said to Xiaoli: "It seems that someone is coming, you go and send her away, don't let her come in and see me it's here."

Xiao Li nodded, and hurried to the door to dismiss the maid. When she came back, Qin Sang was still sitting by the window, smiling and said to her: "Xiao Li, I have to go."

She comes and goes in a hurry every time, and Xiao Li is used to it, but this time she asked eagerly: "Then when will you come to pick me up and go back to my hometown?"

Qin Sang tightly clenched a piece of white silk with his fingers in his sleeve, turned around and waved to her. Xiao Li ran over and was gently embraced by her.

"Sister...maybe I will go to my parents first," she pressed the person in her arms who became anxious when she heard this, "You have Chen Yubai, you have to take him to see your parents together!"

"But didn't you say last time: Are you going to get married too?" Xiaoli asked puzzled.

Qin Sang smiled softly: "Yes, I really want to marry him... Unfortunately, he won't marry me."

She let go of her hand, held Xiaoli's shoulders, looked into her eyes and said to her seriously: "Xiaoli, you have to live a good life with Chen Yubai and listen to him. Sister, go to your parents first and take a step for you. How about you bring a message to your parents?"

Ji Xiaoli was a little sad but he couldn't help it, he could only nod his head.

"When I meet my parents, I will tell them: our Xiaoli married a very good person and lived a very good life. In the future, I will bring my husband to reunite with them." Qin Sang said in a low voice. Soft, like talking about a dream.

Listening to her voice, Xiao Li had tears in his eyes inexplicably: "In the future... when will it be?"

"When it's time to get together, we will naturally get together." Qin Sang cupped her face, "Xiao Li, be good."

Qin Sang bid farewell to his younger sister and came out, thinking that if they say goodbye today, maybe there will be no day to see each other again, tears could no longer be stopped. The air was flowing in the wind, and the purple eyes were crying all the way.

In the ten-mile gardenia forest outside the National Teacher's Mansion, someone was quietly waiting for her in the middle of the road.

Qin Sang was caught off guard, stopped abruptly, took two steps back, and quietly clenched the white silk with her hands in her sleeves.

Master Guoshi waited for a long time, but he didn't expect her to be so tear-stained, and immediately frowned and asked: "What did you say to her?"

She was crying like this, did his idiot faint from crying

Qin Sang laughed, raised his sleeves and wiped his tears, "I made Master Guoshi laugh - just now my little sister asked me when I would get married, I couldn't help myself..."

Recently, rumors spread all over the city that the emperor would marry his beloved Princess Xiyue to Li Weiran, the eldest grandson of the famous Li family in Hanzhong and the current leader of the martial arts alliance. Chen Yubai also heard about it, and was silent for a while.

Qin Sang, on the other hand, had tears in his eyes, but his smile became brighter and brighter: "I haven't thanked Mr. Guoshi for taking such pains to relieve the cold poison of His Highness the First Prince."

"You don't need to thank me for this. I'm doing it for Xiaoli. From now on, you don't have to come and deliver medicine to her every month." Although Chen Yubai's voice was cold, the words were sincere: "Qin Sang, take care too."

"Yes." Qin Sang replied with a smile.

Chen Yubai looked at her, and said with a calm expression: "Qin Sang, don't think that if you entrust those two people to Gu Mingzhu and me, you will be fine - if something happens to you, Xiaoli will be sad for you."

"It's okay to be sad for a while. With you by her side, she will soon forget me." She lowered her eyes and whispered.

"But there are also people who are determined to be unforgettable." Chen Yubai sighed softly, "I have known Li Weiran for many years, and he is definitely not a person who is ungrateful."

"He really isn't." Qin Sang raised her head, her beautiful face was full of a gentle smile, and her voice was soft and soft: "I lied to him, the heartless and ungrateful person is me."

So far, there is nothing more to say.

Chen Yubai turned sideways to make way silently, and the beauty in purple walked past.

**

Although Chen Yubai knew that everything had its own destiny, but Qin Sang was Xiaoli's closest blood relative after all, so he returned to the mansion with a heavy heart.

The old housekeeper came to meet him and told him: Madam has entered the big warehouse.

"Let her choose things, and ask someone to wait on them carefully, and she is not allowed to climb up and down by herself, and she is not allowed to bump into anything." He gave instructions but was still worried, nothing happened, so he went to see for himself.

The warehouse of the National Teacher’s Mansion is a large courtyard with three entrances and three exits. Dozens of spacious and square tall houses are connected together, and each room is full of piles. Rewards, rites and filial piety from various places, etc... Everything in it was cataloged, but Xiao Li didn't have the time to flip through the catalog quietly, ordered someone to open the door, and plunged in to look for what she wanted.

When Master Guoshi found her, she was instructing his servants to remove a Jade Guanyin statue from the shelf.

Although the date of return has not yet been set, she is full of longing and can't wait to start preparations.

Ji Xiaoli's imagined mother...should be as beautiful and gentle as the concubine, and devote herself to worshiping Buddha. If you dedicate this to your mother, she will definitely like it.

Xiao Li was elated when someone beside him asked coldly, "What are you doing? Are you planning to evacuate your husband's house?"

Xiao Li was startled, turned around and saw him, and quickly explained: "No, no! I'm just looking for a few gifts for others!"

"You want to go back to your mother's house?"

"No—well, yes!" She said mysteriously and happily, "Don't ask, I'll take you there when the time comes!"

Chen Yubai knew where she was referring to, and knew in his heart that it was futile, but after a moment of silence, he decided to mess around with her: "Put the things back." He ordered his servants.

Xiaoli was in a hurry: "Don't put it back! Can I exchange the treasure in my library with you?!"

She also has a warehouse, where the dowry given to her by the Zhennan Palace is stored, and there are many good things in it.

But the master of the country obviously didn't like it: "With your eyesight, what treasures can you have? What good things have you seen?"

If you take this ordinary Jade Guanyin to your mother-in-law, where will you put the honorable name of the master of the country

Xiaoli became anxious, and retorted loudly: "I have seen good things! I... I married you, right?!"

"Don't forget, you were snatched by me on the day you got married." Master Guoshi reminded coldly, and asked coldly with a frown: "You said I was a 'thing'?"

"Uh..." Ji Xiaoli was at a loss for words, and asked him solemnly and sincerely: "I'm hungry, husband, are you hungry?"

Chen Yubai glanced at her, turned and walked out. She followed behind, stumbling in the warehouse, she walked slowly, and he had to stop and wait after walking a few steps, so he held her hand impatiently and took her by his side.

He looked so disgusted, Ji Xiaoli was not reconciled, and muttered unhappily: "Do you have good eyesight? Then why did you marry me?!"

"What did you say?" The National Teacher asked suddenly.

"I didn't say anything!" Someone sullenly denied.

After leaving the warehouse, the old housekeeper was waiting outside. The Master of the State Council had just had a meal in the palace, but when he saw him, he ordered: "Set the meal."

"yes."

"Go and tidy up the warehouse in Nanyuan. Madam is going to pick up some things after dinner." He glanced at the person next to him who raised his head suddenly. The mutton fat white jade Guanyin that was sent, find it and send it to Madam."

The old housekeeper responded respectfully with a smile.

"Isn't this your treasury? You still have a treasury?" the surprised man asked, "Do you have a dowry too?"

The person who was waiting for her to praise and worship with a serious face turned dark instantly.

The old housekeeper suppressed a smile and explained: "Returning to Madam: This is the storeroom in the mansion, and all the etiquette transactions in the mansion are paid from this storeroom. Your Excellency also has a storeroom in Nanyuan, which stores all your own collections. " After finishing speaking, he chimed in and asked intentionally: "My lord: Madam went to pick things, did you choose according to Madam's wishes?"

Master Guoshi snorted coldly: "Let her choose! It's best to move away if everyone likes it!"

The old butler responded with a smile, but Ji Xiaoli believed it, and stretched out his hand to grab the sleeve of her husband with a smile: "Really?"

"Really." Master Guoshi said solemnly, "It's the only time in my life that I have poor eyesight. It should be punished, and I should have a long memory in the future."

He obviously intended to be angry, but unfortunately his wife couldn't understand such a mild anger, and she couldn't remember what she just muttered just now, so she pushed him to eat quickly with a smile, and don't delay her picking things.

The author has something to say: I didn't make it clear in the last chapter: the ending will be at least until the end of this month, I just want to see what extra episodes you want to watch, and get ready to start writing early.

Qin Sang's side story will definitely be written. The cubs of Master Guoshi can also write, but the children's episodes will be put in paper books according to the usual practice.
