Chapter 168, Gifts to send

A great battle ended under the rainbow after the rain.Originally, the food, grass, soldiers and horses were already in a mess because of the heavy rain.After the sneak attack, it was even more devastated.

"Count the numbers, clean up the mess, and try to set off before evening." It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, as it will hurt the innocent.Back at the inn, Xiao Yanling looked at the messy shop in astonishment.

Also stunned were Cao Yu's master and servant who lived in other residents' houses last night. They escaped unharmed.

"What's going on?" You know the situation in front of you without asking.

"Where's the princess?"

"My lord, I'm here." Gu Wushuang waved to him from the second floor.Xiao Yanling flew over the fence with his toes off the ground, and stood firmly in front of her.Looking up and down, she was relieved to see that although her hair was a little messy, her body was unharmed.

"We were also raided, are you all right? How about supplies and food? Has anyone been injured?"

"Slightly injured, supplies are fine. Where's Shen Muqing?"

"Young Master Shen is injured, and he's in the house." Entering the house, he saw that Shen Muqing's white clothes were stained with blood, and Gu Wushuang's arm had been re-stitched and bandaged.

"Mr. Shen was there to protect me from my injuries. Your lord, you have to thank him." Gu Wushuang was well aware of his man's jealousy, so he first mentioned the credit.

As for the incident of accidentally touching Shen Muqing when he was suturing the wound just now, I will omit it, because there is no distinction between men and women when practicing medicine to save lives.

Seeing Shen Muqing's disheveled appearance, Xiao Yanling frowned. This room was lived in by him and the concubine.Seeing him sitting on the bed so naturally, I felt a little awkward.His complexion is also not good.If Gu Wushuang knew what he was thinking at the moment, he would probably vomit blood.

"My lord, some of the guards are injured, I'll go and show them."

"No need, someone has already gone." His arm was pulled, Gu Wushuang blinked, and asked inexplicably, "Who is it?"

"Mr. Lin's woman." Uh, Hong Ling.when did she go out?Seems to be more active than her, Gu Wushuang immediately felt ashamed.So that afterwards, when she was alone with Xiao Yanling, she asked him: "My lord, did you care that I didn't go to your side immediately that day?" Originally——Xiao Yanling didn't care, and she wished she wouldn't show up, after all He didn't want her to get hurt in such a dangerous scene.

But thinking that Gu Wushuang delayed because of bandaging and stitching Shen Muqing, he felt a little indescribably depressed.

Many people were injured, and some died. Instead of burying the bodies, they chose to spark directly.Then send the package of ashes back to Kyoto.Xiao Yanling also paid for the pension for his family members himself, and sent a letter to the imperial court.

In addition, Shen Fu will be secretly informed about the discovery of the death row prisoner.The letter written by Shen Muqing himself, they are not here, and the officials in the court are protecting each other, so the only ones who can believe it are his father and the eldest princess.

"Shopkeeper, I'm sorry to cause you trouble. Please accept this money as compensation for your kindness." Gu Wushuang motioned Xiang'er to hand a bag of money to the storekeeper.

"This - thank you very much. The nobleman is here for the safety of the country. These villains are not easy to grant. Although the small shop is a small business, it still has backbone. Princess, your kindness is appreciated." Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper Being so sensible, Gu Wushuang smiled and handed over the money with his own hands.

"Shopkeeper, your words are touching, but please be sure to take care of the money, and clean up the damaged places. If there is a chance, we will stay again in the future."

"Well, thank you, Princess."

The flames were blazing, and the people watching from the side bowed their heads in silence.

At this moment, everyone's heart is heavy.He died on the way before setting out.This ending is undoubtedly painful and annoying.

Xiao Yanling was glad that Feng Qiman did not go with him, they didn't come here just to destroy supplies or snatch money.Another level is to intercept and kill the rest of the Feng family army.

In fact, Xiao Yanling had already made an estimate.He has gained a lot of money while abroad for many years, but he has also taken in a lot of connections.Just never thought about who to replace?Just live your life freely.Even though countless people wanted him to die, he never frowned or blinked.

"It's so pitiful." Xiang'er saw so many dead people for the first time, and she just lost her life. "

"Okay, don't cry, they will rest in peace." Yaya was also teary.

The hearts of those present are undoubtedly heavy.I didn't expect them to be so courageous, and they started to wreak havoc only a few days away from Kyoto.It's just completely unrecognizable.

Sparks danced in Xiao Yanling's long and narrow eyes.My heart is angry.For the person who died, but also because of the madness of that person.

"Aren't you afraid of being punished by God if you are so unscrupulous?" Lin Yubin was indignant.

He didn't expect that it was like this at the beginning, what about the future?Looking at Hong Ling, who was somewhat embarrassed and tired beside him, his pale cheeks made him feel extremely distressed.He regretted bringing her here.Shouldn't you follow the army?

In the evening, the team packed up and planned to continue on their way.Lin Yubin came to Xiao Yanling on horseback.

"Prince Xiao, after yesterday, after thinking about it, I still don't want to go with you." He didn't want Hong Ling to be tired, and he didn't want to regret it.

"It's okay, you can do whatever you want." Xiao Yanling expressed his understanding, they were not deployed by his subordinates in the first place, so they don't have to follow the team.

"I don't agree." It was Hong Ling who spoke.Lin Yubin turned around in astonishment, and saw Hong Ling standing behind with an angry face.

"Hongling, why don't you agree?" He thought she was willing too.

"Young Master Lin, you always make your own decisions like this!"

"I—" Lin Yubin was speechless for a moment.Xiao Yanling raised his eyebrows, and walked away knowingly.They can follow or not.He has no heart for managing their liberty.He is going to see his princess.

"Princess, is Xiang'er okay?" On the spare carriage, Xiang'er leaned aside with her eyes closed, and Yaya asked Gu Wushuang worriedly.

"It's okay, she's just overly frightened, she's already taken the Qingxin Pill, and she'll be fine after a while. Take good care of her." She was about to get off the carriage.

"Princess, what about you? You are--"

"Shuang'er." Xiao Yanling softly called out from outside.Gu Wushuang immediately covered Yaya's mouth.His eyes warned her: Don't slip up.

"I'm here, my lord, you're here!" Seeing Gu Wushuang's smiling face greet him, Xiao Yanling was somewhat flattered.He reached out and led her out of the carriage.

"Are you going?"

"Well, let's leave immediately." As soon as the words finished, Xuanji yelled: "Let's all go." It has to be said that Xuanji's work efficiency is very high, and the chaotic scene will be tidied up before evening.

For the injured guard, they arranged another carriage to transport the bones of the sacrificed guard, which was the hidden guard beside him.Xiao Yanling also prepared two "big gifts", which will be sent to certain people's homes respectively.

Hong Ling didn't leave because she didn't want to be alone with Lin Yubin.She wasn't built for riding a horse, and she didn't want him to find out.

"Miss Hongling, thanks to your help this time, if you weren't here, my concubine would definitely be exhausted." Most of the injured people were treated by Hongling.The doctor in the small town is a three-legged cat and won't move when he sees a big wound.

Through this incident, Yaya realizes that Hongling's colleagues are beneficial and harmless.At least it can help save lives.Hongling won't change anything because of Yaya's polite compliment.

"I don't save people for whom? I save people if I want to." Her indifference is only on the surface, and Yaya can see that this woman is hard-spoken and soft-hearted.

"Thank you anyway." Still added a word of thanks.Hong Ling didn't say anything, just let it go.Thank you if you want, and she won't suffer.

He glanced at the half-closed Xiang'er, "What's wrong with her?"

"Oh, it's okay, my concubine said she was frightened." She pouted, since she had already seen it, it was none of her business.

So I found a comfortable position, closed my eyes and began to rest.She has been tossing long enough, and she is also tired.

Although the spare carriage is not as luxurious as Gu Wushuang's.But at least it's spacious enough.Prince Xiao's mansion has plenty of money, so even if it is a spare, it is carefully arranged, all the best.

Before falling asleep, Hong Ling couldn't help but mockingly thought: Gu Wushuang is really lucky.

"You bastard, you dare to bring this kind of pickled and filthy thing in for adults to see, if you don't want to live, pull it out." In the study of Prime Minister Xiao's mansion, a person was dragged out of the study by both sides.

There were white bones scattered in overturned boxes on the ground.Those were the skeletons of several condemned prisoners.Prime Minister Xiao, who had his hands behind his back and closed his eyes, was obviously very angry.

"Come on, hurry up and clean it up." The housekeeper was terrified.

Unexpectedly, Prince Xiao was so bold that he actually sent the bones of the dead.

"Hmph, he's a smart guy." He actually expected that it was related to him at this time, and sending the bones of these condemned prisoners back was undoubtedly a warning to him.

"Master, Xiao Yanling probably knows something?"

"So what if you know? Is this old man afraid that he will fail?" Prime Minister Xiao, who is not easily angry, was hit this time.

"How is Grand Master Pang?"

"I heard that he also received it." The butler confessed honestly.A trace of coldness flashed across Prime Minister Xiao's gloomy eyes.

"Oh, you go to deliver the letter, just say that the truth is that you want to invite him to dinner, and invite him to come to your house as a guest."

"Yes, I'm going right away." After speaking, the butler withdrew, the door of the study was closed, and there was a moment of silence.

"Okay, it's really satisfying, I knew that the emperor's uncle is capable." The emperor was overjoyed when he received the news.

"Why is Your Majesty so happy?" The Empress Dowager suddenly entered the emperor's residence without notification.The smile on the emperor's face froze, and he glanced at Eunuch Chen with displeasure.

Eunuch Chen immediately bent down and lowered his head, looking aggrieved.

"Your Majesty, don't be angry. It's the Ai family who didn't want people to report it. Just now, the Ai family heard what your majesty said happily. They were very happy. It must have happened to something good. Can you tell the Ai family to be happy?"

"Why is the queen mother free today?" The emperor went over to support her arm and asked her to sit down on the grand master's chair.

The queen mother raised her head slightly, and suddenly found that the emperor had grown a lot taller at some point.The tone of his speech was also much calmer, and the faint evil charm between his brows was somewhat similar to Xiao Yanling's before.

Surprised in my heart, this son is less and less like her.Such an appearance is what Emperor Yuxiao should have.I can't help but feel a little proud that she, Xiao Feng, still deserves some credit.

"The empress dowager looks quite good recently, presumably the management of the harem is smooth." The emperor smiled and spoke with a modest attitude, and the empress dowager naturally felt comfortable listening.

"Hehe, I didn't expect that after the emperor had a female officer, his mouth would be able to speak. In a blink of an eye, the little toddler is already so tall and straight, like a green pine. Ai Jia remembers—in a few months, the emperor will be fifteen, right?" Xiao Feng Dan narrowed her eyes, seemingly thinking and asking.His eyes seemed to drift to the corner.

Gu Wuxia stood tall and graceful, bowing her head slightly with a respectful attitude.

"The empress dowager remembers well. My son's birthday is on the first day of October. That is, after March." The emperor also took a look at Gu Wuxia as he spoke.

Xiao Fengfeng's eyes turned slightly between the two of them.The red lips raised an oblique angle, and the fingers painted with Danko caressed the emperor's arm intentionally or unintentionally.The emperor raised his hands in alarm.

The teenager doesn't know the taste of love yet, but he still knows the precautions that should be taken.After all, he is no longer a child.

"The Ai family has been here for so long, why don't you see Miss Gu coming to say hello? Could it be that you have a problem with the Ai family?" Xiao Feng suddenly got into trouble, and Gu Wuxia immediately came over and knelt down on the ground, covering his forehead with both hands and kowtowing to the ground.

"I have seen the Queen Mother, and when I saw the Queen Mother talking to Your Majesty, I dare not speak rashly, so I ask the Queen Mother to forgive me."

"Oh, so the Ai family blamed you. Miss Gu is so sensible, the Ai family is reluctant to punish you."

"It's unreasonable. There is no one who talks like you. There is always a sequence. Although the queen mother is my mother, she is the queen mother of a country after all. You, a little female official, will naturally come up as soon as you see her." Salute. Where did you get so many reasons? Did I allow you?" The queen mother looked at the emperor in astonishment.

Seeing his tense face, the rebuke is not fake. Could it be that he is deliberately trying to save her?
"If you don't hurry up, let me out, and you will be fined to shut yourself up and think about your mistakes, and you will be fined to copy the women's scriptures a hundred times."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Gu Wuxia got up from the ground and left quickly.

The queen mother raised her eyebrows and looked at the emperor, she was serious.He was also punished for copying women's scriptures a hundred times!Before she even spoke to the emperor, she pre-empted the attack.

It seems that the child has grown up and can't help but be a mother.

"Hey, why is the emperor so angry? The Ai family didn't say anything about her. What are you punishing her for? She has worked hard to serve the emperor! How about it, after your fifteenth birthday... let her sleep with you!"

The queen mother did not look at the emperor's expression, but yawned, "Oh, the Ai family is also tired. Let's stop here today! The emperor doesn't need to send it off, and manage the affairs of the court well. The Ai family will come to see you someday. You." Before taking a step, he turned around again, "Oh, by the way, the Ai family will definitely make a beautiful one for you for your coming-of-age ceremony. You need to know more about it in advance so that you don't have time..." The queen mother didn't He continued with an ambiguous smile.

The emperor's forehead was dripping with sweat.

Is the Queen Mother too busy recently?

But... the thought of going with Mrs. Gu... his heart beat inexplicably.There was also a blush on Junya's face.

Next door, Gu Wuxia concentrated on copying the women's scriptures, a hundred times is already very little.For her, it only takes two hours.

The emperor came to her residence, looked inside quietly, and saw Gu Wuxia half kneeling in front of the table with her head down, seriously writing.

The corners of her mouth could not help but rise, and she thought to herself: It would be great if she could always be so well-behaved.
