Chapter 281 Returning to Xieyang County

The news of Yan Shu's assassination reached Yanjing five days later.

At that time, Bai Shao was sitting with Bai Wei in the courtyard, basking in the sun and reading idle books, when Gu Qingfan broke into the door, before he could stand firmly, he said out of breath, "Yan Shu was assassinated in Xieyang County."

The idle book in Bai Shao's hand suddenly fell on his lap, and finally rolled to the ground.

She opened her mouth wide, and her beautiful face was full of disbelief. After a long time, she found her own voice, "He... is he okay?"

"I heard that he was hanging in one breath... the situation is very serious." Gu Qingfan frowned and said, "Besides, the distance from Xieyang County to Yanjing is not close, and it was the yamen who rushed to kill three horses before sending them here. It took five full days for the news."

Gu Qingfan's words meant that Yan Shu was hesitant five days ago.

As for what happened five days later, they didn't know anything.

"Hanging breath..." Bai Shao was stunned, and murmured as if thinking about something, "The doctor and doctor in Anyang County can't cure him, so let the imperial doctor go there. The imperial doctor is here."

"Your Majesty and I got the news at the same time that the imperial doctor has been sent there, but it is estimated that it will take five or six days to arrive." Gu Qingfan frowned and said, "I am here now to tell you, next I don’t want to go anywhere when I stay in Zhen Guogong’s mansion, I want to see Yan Shu.”

"I'll go too." Upon hearing this, Bai Shao suddenly stood up from the chair, and was about to go into the room to pack things.

"Shao'er." Bai Wei hugged her arm, and said worriedly, "What are you doing in the past, let alone the long distance, you are neither a doctor nor an imperial doctor, and you will not be able to help you if you pass by of."

"I just want to go..." Bai Shao pursed her lips.

Bai Wei looked back at Gu Qingfan worriedly, then at Bai Shao, suddenly felt a little weird.

It's as if... none of their faces are that sad.

There is no strong sadness like losing something, but a little uneasy, and a little... nervous.

Bai Wei didn't understand why they were like this, and she was always outspoken, so she couldn't help asking, "Shao'er, why do I think you're not so sad? What's wrong with you? Are you abnormal?"

"What's abnormal." Bai Shao laughed and pushed her hand away, pulled out her arm, and strode into the room while firmly saying, "There must be nothing wrong with that guy, maybe he lied to me about the news Hmph, I was also deceived at the beginning, but when I think about it later, I realize that what he said to me before has been settled, so I am sure that this must be his scheme."

"Ah..." Bai Wei opened her mouth wide in surprise, and believed her words, "Since you know it's his scheme, why do you have to go to Xieyang County and make a trip."

"Go, why don't you go, I want to see how far he can pretend to be a cruel trick." Bai Shao whispered while searching for a change of clothes.

No one noticed that her hands were shaking as she was packing clothes into the bag, and no one noticed that her dark eyes were full of panic.

She was afraid it was true, so she used a relaxed tone to numb herself—it was all fake.

As for Gu Qingfan... She didn't know why he was so calm, she didn't ask, but just forcibly followed behind Gu Qingfan, forcing him to take her to Xieyang County.

"I want to rush there as fast as possible. I don't have a carriage, so I can't stay in an inn. I eat dry food when I'm hungry, and drink cold water when I'm thirsty. Although the weather in Dayan is still hot, you are a girl after all. You have been spoiled and spoiled. After going through such hardships, are you really sure you want to come with me?" Gu Qingfan couldn't bear the suffering of his sister, so he kept trying to persuade her, and threatened her with the hardships along the way, trying to make her give up.

"Go, brother, I'm not as fragile as you think. Although I don't know how to ride a horse, brother, you will definitely take mine, right?" Bai Shao raised her head, her big eyes stared at Gu Qingfan so trustingly, letting his My heart softened unconsciously.

After a while, he gritted his teeth and asked his servants to bring the horse, and put on the prepared dry rations. After getting on the horse, he drove the horse to Bai Shao, and stretched out his hand to her, "Come up."

Bai Shao grinned, and imitated Gu Qingfan's way to hang the burden on his body, then with Gu Qingfan's arm, stepped on the horse's stirrup, got on the horse's back with some difficulty, and sat in front of Gu Qingfan.

"Shao'er, Gu Qingfan!" Bai Wei stood behind them, stammering, "That... can you take me with you..."

"What are you going to do?" Gu Qingfan frowned, and reprimanded in a low voice, "The Yanjing is already in chaos, so stay at home."

"I won't!" Bai Wei shouted anxiously, "Xieyang County is my hometown, and I want to go back and have a look...and I can endure hardships and stand hard work, and I'm not afraid of getting tired."

As she said that, seeing that there was no space in front of Gu Qingfan, she had an idea and said loudly, "I'll call Yun Shi, I'll let Yun Shi take me back to Xieyang County, I don't ask you."

After finishing speaking, he ran back to the Gu mansion with big strides.

Bai Shao nestled in front of Gu Qingfan, and could clearly feel that Gu Qingfan let out a sigh of annoyance, and his eyes followed Bai Wei's back all the time.

He didn't helplessly sigh until he lost sight of Bai Wei, pulled the horse's rein, and patted the horse's buttocks.

Ma'er is well versed in spirituality, and immediately took Bai Shao's brother and sister out of Bai Shao's yard.

At this time, Ruan Shi, who got the news, ran over in a hurry, saw the two brothers and sisters on horseback, and immediately shouted loudly, "Come down, Qingqing, come down for me, I won't let you go, it's so far away, you can't eat!" No more suffering, child, come down."

"Mother, I want to go there, don't worry, I can endure this hardship, I have suffered all kinds of hardships during the seven years in Shilipu, mother...you wait here for me." At the end, Bai Shao's tone changed Qing, as if whispering, "I'm sorry mother, I didn't listen to you this time."

"Qingfan! How dare you go!" Seeing that Bai Shao wouldn't move, Ruan cast her eyes on Gu Qingfan and said sharply, "I won't allow you to take your sister away, let her down quickly."

"Mother, if you want to go, let her go. I promise you, I will take good care of her. Mother, we all know your concerns. We are afraid that she will suffer hardships on the road, but if you force her to stay, she will become depressed and sick." It hurts even more." Gu Qingfan sat on the horse's back, reluctantly explained a few words to Ruan Shi, then reined in the horse, and let the horse under him take the two brothers and sisters, and passed the Zhen Guogong's mansion lightly. threshold, galloped in the direction of Gu's mansion.

Behind them, Ruan's head was dizzy with anger, but he still held on to his body, looked at the pair of sons and daughters with hatred, turned his head and went back to his yard, and arranged with the maids in the yard.

Although she had no choice but to let them go, Ruan was worried after all. The delicate and tender little girl she had raised this year suffered hardships along the way, so she sent several people to ride behind Gu Qingfan and the others on horseback, or take eating, or holding things, in short, try to take care of Bai Shao and others as safe as possible.

In front of the gate of Gu's mansion, Bai Wei successfully persuaded Bai Yunshi, and the two siblings quickly took the things, regardless of Wu Shi who was shouting behind him, and hurriedly explained a few words before riding out from Gu's mansion. Met Gu Qingfan brothers and sisters who rushed here.

Bai Wei hummed to Gu Qingfan, then turned her head and grinned at Bai Shao, "Shao'er, I'll go with you."

"Sister..." Bai Shao feels sorry for Bai Wei, she is not afraid of suffering, but she is afraid of Bai Wei.

But seeing that Bai Wei's things were wrapped up, Bai Yunshi's horse was also pulled out, and the siblings also got on the horse, Bai Shao pursed her lips, but still didn't say anything, and only told Gu Qingfan to leave quickly.

A group of four people, a pair of brothers and sisters, and a pair of siblings, chose a road with fewer people, tightened the reins, and quickly left Yanjing.

In front of Xuanwu Gate, the north gate of Yanjing, there were four horses parked, two of them were Bai Shao's two handmaidens, Han Ju and He Xiang, and the other two were relatively strong men from the Duke of Zhen's mansion. The servants, all of them were carrying something assy, ​​after seeing Bai Shao and the others, they hurriedly rode their horses to them.

"You...why are you here?" Bai Shao asked in surprise.

"Madam is worried about you, let us bring food and other things here." He Xiang said, took out a thick quilt from the two frames beside the horse's buttocks, and handed it to Bai Shao, "Madam said People who just started riding a horse will wear the inner thigh, let the lady put this pad on it, so as not to hurt it.”

Bai Shao took the small quilt, her eyes turned red instantly.
