Chapter 29 Hui Yan
Qiu Yao followed the bodyguard out of the back door. Seeing that there were no less than 20 fully armed bodyguards around her, she couldn't help but feel a little weak. The rest of the people just looked at them for a few times without stopping them. A familiar white appeared in her sight. Qiu Yao shouted excitedly.
"Xiao Bai!" Qiu Yao ran forward delicately and hugged Xiao Bai's head. After rubbing it a few times, she looked at Mao Sui, which had not seen for many days, and saw a jujube-red foal standing behind him, slightly bigger than Xiao Bai.
"Have you recovered from your injury?" Qiu Yao asked while touching Xiaobai's head.
"Hmm." Mao Sui came forward and said thank you to the bodyguard who led the way, and then got on the horse and said to Qiu Yao, "Let's go. We can't get to Yancheng before dark."
Qiu Yao immediately got on the horse, thinking that it was really difficult for her to live in this ancient life. In this special day (...) she had to ride a horse for most of the day. I hope she didn't leave any sequelae.
"Really, your injury was so serious before, but now it's only been more than a month." Qiu Yao turned her eyes and made up her mind.
"It doesn't matter. Can you ride the horse faster?"
"Your injury hasn't healed yet. What are you doing riding so fast? It's capricious~" She is simply a genius...
The corners of Goose Feather's eyes twitched in front of him. Anyway, he was also involved in this disturbance. Qiu Yao disappeared. How could he continue to stay in her home to recuperate from his wounds? A few days after he went to the ground, he asked for a horse to chase him in the direction of the Qin army camp in northern Han.
" By the way, did you meet Mr. Guiguzi when you came?"
"I met you halfway yesterday evening. Master told me that you should be in the palace of the king of Chu. I told you something and rushed here. On the way, I saw Song Yu riding this horse, so I discussed with him to take you back like this. Speaking of this, he couldn't help but be a little confused. Song Yu was famous for being an unfriendly woman, but he seemed to be very concerned about Qiu Yao's affairs. If it was just because she was her good friend's fiancee, he would be too concerned about it.
Qiu Yao answered vaguely and felt that her ears were burning again. For no other reason, it was a small accident in the carriage.
It's just, is this really an accident?
Fortunately, Mao Sui didn't look back, otherwise he would have found that Qiu Yao's face was as red as cooked shrimp.
When the two arrived at Xie's house, it was completely dark.
"Song Yu asked me to tell you not to go out easily until the matter of Yingdu is resolved." As if he felt guilty for implicating the other party, Mao Sui got off the horse and hesitated for a moment and arched his hands to Qiu Yao, "The girl's kindness of saving my life is unforgettable. Recently, I live in the Chengnan inn. If the girl needs any help, I can send someone to tell her."
"I know, I know, go back quickly." Qiu Yao suddenly got up for fun. Seeing that Mao Sui lowered her head, she stepped forward and touched his head, and then followed the two familymen into the house.
Who said that the life-saving grace should be agreed with the body? Oh yeah, the famous Mao Sui is now my person~
After a few steps, Qiu Yao obviously felt that she would not go home... This sad little body.
When Qiu Yao came out of the toilet and went back to her room to change her clothes, the food in Xie's hall had been cold for a long time. When Qiu Yao walked in with strange outer eight characters, she saw three faces around the candlelight, an old, a young woman... When she entered, the three faces turned around together, and six eyes looked at Qiu Yao quietly.
Qiu Yao's legs couldn't help shivering.
"I said... You don't have to wait for me to come back and eat together. It wasn't like this before... hey hey hey hey..."
Father Xie picked up his chopsticks without saying a word and began to eat. Xie Jin immediately followed him to eat. Only Mrs. Xie raised his sleeve and smiled strangely, "Come and eat."
...What's going on...
Qiu Yao hesitated to go to the table and began to eat, feeling like fifteen buckets.
Qiu Yao ran around for a day and had no appetite. She just felt uncomfortable all over her body and thought about making some sugar water to drink later.
"Come with me." This is the first thing Father Xie said to Qiu Yao after dinner.
Qiu Yao put down the bowls and chopsticks and followed Father Xie all the way to the study, still using obscene characters.
"This was sent by Mr. Jing yesterday. He said he would open it in person when you came back." Father Xie handed Qiu Yao a small bamboo tube about three inches long with a blank face.
Qiu Yao said "Oh", opened the round cover on the bamboo tube, took out a piece of bamboo slip and looked at it carefully through the candlelight. Qiu Yao was relieved to find that the words on it recognized her. However, after connecting all the words into a sentence, her heart suddenly sank.
"Near." Father Xie still has a straight face.
"You are not allowed to go out within 15 days." Well, she opened it herself, but after opening it, she immediately read it in front of the old man.
Just now, Mao Sui didn't pay too much attention when she relayed Song Yu's words, but when she saw Jingcha's message, she couldn't help but feel nervous. If it was just to prevent her from being threatened by the Qin people again, she didn't have to be so careful, because she knew this truth in her heart, and why did Jingsai deliberately Is there a deadline before?
What will happen in these 15 days?
"How to explain this?" Father Xie kept asking, and his face became more and more ugly.
"I..." Qiu Yao was a little speechless. She didn't even know how Jingcha explained her disappearance this month to Xie's family, so she was afraid that she would make more mistakes, so she simply shut up.
" Mr. Jing said that you caught up with the queue of the king's journey to the west on a whim, so why did you come back alone before the king after Mr. Jing? Even if the truth is true as Mr. Jing said, you didn't think about how much it would affect your reputation when you left the city? Yesterday, the Jing family sent a message that the period of March has been changed to one year. How can I have livestock? You are such a shameless daughter! I...cough..."
Qiu Yao couldn't help feeling a little sorry to see that he coughed badly. Although Xie's father often didn't have a good look on her, at least he was also her father in this era. Qiu Yao felt guilty and gently patted Xie's father on the back to help her.
"Close your door and think about it! Don't go out for half a month!"
Qiu Yao paused and then obediently went out. There must be their reason why Jingcha and Song Yu left that. She didn't plan to venture out for half a month, so that Father Xie could be more relaxed.
Just staying at home does not mean that she knows nothing about things outside. Qiu Yao asked people about the situation outside every now and then. It seems that a lot of things have happened in the past few days. The most important one is that the king of Chu returned to the capital. I heard that the king of Chu's motorcade stayed outside Yingdu all night. At dawn, Zhuang Yi was allowed to open the gate to let the king of Chu. During the period of entering the city, it was the scene difference who was responsible for negotiating with Zhuang Yu.
The matter of Zhuang Yu calmed down, and the king of Chu did not severely punish him, but followed his advice to step up the fortifications of Yanying Ercheng, recruit troops and train the army.
Of course, important things are not necessarily military. There is also a thing that makes the people of Chu talk about. It is said that the king of Chu married a goddess from Wushan and spoiled her so much. At this time, the king of Chu also seemed to gradually focus on national affairs. The people of Chu thought that it was the protection of the state of the state of Chu. You, the beautiful situation of the surge of national strength after Wu Qi's change of law will begin again.
During this period, Qiu Yao had never seen anyone other than Xie's family. The weather gradually turned cold. It is reasonable that wars usually occur in spring and autumn, but Bai Qi's first winter war precedent. Therefore, even in winter, the soldiers and civilians of the State of Chu did not dare to relax their vigilance. However, when the Qin army marched to the west, the Chu army was still retreated, although the disaster had not yet affected the country. However, even Qiu Yao, who lived in her boudoir, felt the tense atmosphere of Qin and Chu.
Qiu Yao had frostbite in her hands and feet, and she was painful and itchy. She was determined to make some small invention to help warm up. However, as soon as the proposal to change the incense burner into a hand stove was put forward, Xie's father tried her best. Qiu Yao couldn't do it. She had to stay in the quilt all day and read some books. There was not even a wonderful book in this broken era. Qiu Yao looked at it for a few days and felt that her brain had become a paste.
Just as Qiu Yao was in a hurry, Jingcha suddenly came to the Xie family and received a warm welcome from all the Xie family except Qiu Yao.
Qiu Yao showed half of her head from the quilt, and the people who came in from the door stared with big eyes.
Jingchao seemed to be in a bad mood. His signature smile did not hang on his handsome face. Seeing Qiu Yao nestling in the quilt, the original frowning eyebrows couldn't help but relax a little.
"It's such a cold day, and I don't come out to walk around." Jingcha sat by Qiu Yao's bed and reached out to pull her quilt, but Qiu Yao grabbed the corner of the quilt and didn't want to let go.
"Of course you have to stay in the quilt on such a cold day." Qiu Yao looked at him in a luxurious but not flamboyant dark blue formal dress, "You just came out of the palace?"
Jingcha frowned when he heard the words, and soon smiled again, "Yes, I came to see you specially."
Qiu Yao was a little embarrassed and stared at Jingcha with her eyes. "What's so beautiful?"
"...According to the original arrangement, we should get married in the next two days." Jingqi raised the corners of her eyes slightly and looked at Qiu Yao with a smile on her face.
"I..." Qiu Yao suddenly lost her voice and watched the handsome face doubled, and her face suddenly turned red.
Jingdi's arms were on both sides of Qiu Yao, getting closer and closer to the little redder face, and the smile in his eyes was getting deeper and deeper.
"Little girl, your face is so red, what are you thinking?" The difference of the scene lightened the voice, and the magnetic low male voice was full of demagogy. Qiu Yao's mind suddenly went blank, and her past love with Chu Yun came to her mind little by little.
"I... I'm thinking..." Qiu Yao only felt that it was warm in front of her face. The warm lips of the scene were close to her lips, crushing and wandering. Qiu Yao suddenly remembered the two slightly cool lips on the carriage. As soon as she wanted to make a sound to make the scene retreat, she got a gap over there. The dexterous tongue slid in and gently plundered, even The breathing became ambiguous and warm.
