Chapter 156 Unkind Invitation
"Cuckoo, cuckoo..."

Several pheasants crowed from the forest, and Xu Ruqing, who was dozing off in the car, woke up suddenly.

Opening the corner of the car curtain and looking outside, the sky is still gray and dark blue, but it has turned slightly pale when looking at the east.

Looks like it's not far from dawn.

The eldest grandson Gongyu, who was always watching Xu Ruqing's every move, had a clear idea of ​​what she was thinking, and he said lightly to the people guarding outside: "Wei En."

"Your subordinate is here, what are your orders?"

"The dense fog has almost dissipated, let's go back."

Wei En looked at the sky and the road conditions, and answered yes after confirming that he could leave.

"Da-da-da, da-da-da..."

The carriage passed by slowly, the sound was lonely and monotonous in the desolate and inhabited mountains and forests, the leaves falling on both sides of the trail, they swayed above the ground with the biting cold wind, and finally returned to the dust and turned into a part of the land.There was only one horse pulling the cart, and it was handsome and strong. The horse's hooves tapped on the ground, splashing waves of icy sand and mist.

After about half an hour, the four finally arrived at the center of Bianjing City.

"My lord, my maid and I will get off here. Thank you for your escort, and take care of you for the rest of the journey." Zhiqu, who was still asleep, was easily picked up by Xu Ruqing, and jumped off the carriage with a single leap.

They are now located on the first street of Bianjing City, only a quarter of an hour away from Wei Wangfu, so it is necessary to be on guard when going out, she does not want her address to be easily known by a stranger.

Changsun Gongyu frowned slightly when he heard the words, he looked out, it was still early, only one or two hawkers came out to do business on the street, the street was empty and desolate, and at the end was endless darkness, like a deep The bottomless vortex makes people subconsciously feel that there must be hidden power that can swallow people.

He was faintly worried that no matter how strong Xu Ruqing was, she was only a woman, and she needed to be protected. If she was in any danger...

There was concern in his tone, and there was also a kind of reluctance that he didn't even notice: "Are you leaving now? If you are not in a hurry, you can send the two girls to your mansion before going back."

Xu Ruqing turned her head and shook her head: "No, my house is not far ahead, and it won't take long to walk there. The young master has already helped me a lot, how dare Ruqing trouble me again and again."

"It's not troublesome, it's just a matter of raising your hands, Miss Xu..."

The eldest grandson Gongyu still wanted to stay, but was interrupted by Xu Ruqing: "I've made up my mind, you don't need to persuade me any more."

Looking at her firm face, Changsun Gongyu felt very reluctant, but in the end she still chose to respect her wishes.

"Okay, but before you leave, I have an unkind request."

Xu Ruqing was slightly puzzled, quietly waiting for his next words.

"There is a saying in the ancients that gentlemen avoid sexual intercourse, and choosing friendship is like seeking a teacher. Although you and I met by chance, we have formed an indissoluble bond, which is very precious and rare. I wonder if Miss Xu can tell me where I am going. Only then can I see you, if I have to hang out and get together in the future, I will invite you to drink tea, okay?"

Xu Ruqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, she thought he was going to say something, so it was just this.

"What's the difficulty? If you want to find me, go to Manchun Tower and talk to the shopkeeper there."

"Okay, that's it. Miss Xu, take care on the way."

Xu Ruqing nodded her head lightly: "There will be a period later."

Then she turned and left with Zhiqu in her arms, and walked towards the end of the street.

Changsun Gongyu watched her go, even though the light blue figure had long since disappeared into the dark sky, he still stared in that direction for a long time unable to recover.

It was Wei En who reminded: "Master, Miss Xu has gone far."

Hearing this, Changsun Gongyu's thoughts returned to reality, he looked away, feeling lost for no reason.

"Come on, we still have things to do."

"Yes."

……

When Zhiqu woke up, it was already You hour in the afternoon three days later, and it was almost time for dinner.

"Zhiqu, you're awake!" Qiu Ju was surprised and delighted, and coughed, "Amitabha, you've woken up. You've been in a coma for three days and three nights, and you're almost terrifying us!"

Zhiqu was taken aback when he heard this.

What!She actually fell into a coma for three days and three nights!

"Wangfei doesn't know how worried she is. She sends people to ask questions several times a day, and even visits you in person. It's a pity that you don't know." Qiu Ju continued.

Zhiqu felt his mouth was dry, his throat seemed to be stuffed with cotton, and his voice was extremely soft and weak: "What's wrong with me? By the way, where is the princess, is she not injured?!"

"You continued to have a high fever after you came back, and it couldn't come down no matter what. It was the princess who took care of you before you got better. The princess should cook medicine for you in the medicine room now. She is fine, so don't worry."

When she first came back, the little girl seemed to be fine, but she started to have a fever when she fell asleep, her face was so red, and her body temperature was terribly hot. Fortunately, Xu Ruqing took care of it in time and found a fever-reducing tablet from the space to feed her. Next, or I will probably be burned into a fool.

"That's good." If something happened to Xu Ruqing because of herself, she would never feel at ease for the rest of her life.

"I haven't asked you yet, what happened when you went out with the princess? Why did the doctor say that you were sick because you were too frightened?"

"Maybe it's just a bit of wind and cold in the suburbs. It's not as exaggerated as he said." Qiu Ju didn't know this, which means that the princess didn't tell her the reason. Looking back now, what happened that day was really shocking. Tell her Qiu Ju will only scare her, one thing more is worse than one thing less.

Qiu Ju felt that Zhiqu was hiding something from her, she pouted dissatisfiedly: "I don't believe it."

Meeting her searching eyes, Zhiqu sighed helplessly: "Okay, you don't have to do anything if you have the time to guess the riddle?"

Qiu Ju smiled: "The princess said, what I have to do now is to take good care of you, and the other things will be taken care of by the sisters in the inner courtyard."

Qiuju has been by her bed since she returned to the mansion. The princess ordered her to take good care of her. The high fever finally subsided, but it can't be burned again. Qiuju did stay by her side every step of the way.

While talking, a rough voice came from the door: "I'll just go in and have a look, and then I'll leave."

"Guard Xuan, Elder Sister Zhiqu is still very weak, you should go to another day." The maid guarding the door said in a clear voice.

While tugging, another Pingting figure appeared at the door: "It's okay, let him in."

It's the princess' voice!

As soon as the words fell, Xuan Ye rushed in.
