There are two thousand miles between the capital and Yuezhou, and it would take several days to march in a hurry, not to mention bringing Gu Ning and Chu Shiling with them, two delicate and expensive nobles.
In order to save time, the large troops set off first, and only Xie Yan led the three thousand princess guards sent by the eldest princess to escort the two of them.
Only ten miles out of the capital, Gu Ning heard Chu Shiling complaining again and again.
"Why are you not even ready for Ruanta? How is this Ruanta? Are you trying to make me restless every night?"
"Why isn't this water hot? Don't you know how to boil it if you don't have hot water?"
"Why is the carriage shaking so much? Is it really the official way?"
The tension in Gu Ning's heart was completely broken. She walked into Chu Shiling's carriage in two or three steps, and threw Chu Shiling out who was picking at him.
"Gu Ning! Why are you treating me like this!" Chu Shiling held up her skirt and stumbled after the carriage. The maids carefully tried to help her, but she threw them away.
She walked out of breath, but her eyes were still fixed on Gu Ning, and she must get an answer from Gu Ning.
Gu Ning called to stop the carriage, sat on Chu Shiling's carriage, and looked down at the embarrassed Chu Shiling: "This is on the marching road, not going out to play! Where did you come from so many requests?"
"But I..." Chu Shiling complained, but after seeing Gu Ning's cold eyes looking at her, she pursed her mouth and swallowed the words unwillingly.
"I didn't want to go to Yuezhou with you at first." Chu Shiling muttered softly, but unexpectedly, a thump was knocked off the top of her head.
She let out a pain and glared at the instigator: "Gu Ning! What are you doing!"
"It was you who hit me!" Gu Ning asked without answering, "Do you want to take those more than 100 guards to Yuezhou? You don't need my protection?"
Hearing this, Chu Shiling's arrogant arrogance dried up quickly like a punctured balloon: "I just said that..."
"Chunyu, come and tell her why we need to speed up." Gu Ning waved his whip and kept whipping it on the open space at Chu Shiling's feet, causing Chu Shiling's face to turn pale with fright.
So when Chunyu spoke, Chu Shiling closed her mouth peacefully.
"The border between Yuezhou and the two countries has never been peaceful, and Yuezhou's climate is cold, and bandits are at their most rampant when winter is approaching. To be safe, it is best to rush to Yuezhou city before the end of autumn. According to today's speed, it is just right If we can arrive before winter, the time is tight, and every day of delay will increase the danger."
Chu Shiling raised his eyelids, and said cautiously: "Don't talk about the army in front, just talk about the [-] personal guards accompanying, can't they still deter the bandits in the mountains?"
"These soldiers also have families. There are old and young, and they can reach Yuezhou City safely. Why sacrifice their lives?" Gu Ning frowned, "During the next journey, you If you waste any more time, I'll just leave you behind!"
Gu Ning's warning did not seem to be false, Chu Shiling shrank her neck, how dare she sing the opposite tune again.
"I see." She nodded her head, "Don't worry, I will stay in the carriage obediently!"
"There is a post station ahead, you should be quiet." Gu Ning warned her again before returning to her carriage.
Chu Shiling was at the side of the carriage just now, was splashed with dust by the horse's hoof, and felt uncomfortable everywhere, but Gu Ning's warning echoed in her ears, so she could only hold her nose and bear it.
Knowing about the station, Chu Shiling didn't make a fuss.
"The ears are finally clean." Gu Ning soaked in the bathtub and sighed comfortably, "How long will it take to reach Yuezhou?"
"It will take at least fifteen more days." Chunyu replied, "With a large army in front, those bandits must not dare to go out."
Gu Ning snorted coldly: "Of course there will be no trouble with a large army on the way to Yuezhou, but when I arrive in Yuezhou, I can't go everywhere with three thousand personal guards."
"Is the county magistrate worried that someone will assassinate you?" Chunyu blurted out, "But killing you doesn't do anything to the overall situation..."
"That's not necessarily true." Gu Ning's tone was calm, but he concealed his coldness, "We and Chu Yunyi are completely torn apart. It is absolutely impossible for Chu Yunyi to watch such a big backer of the Pei family being taken away. As soon as he comes, he can only find ways to get rid of the Pei family!"
"The rumors during the last autumn hunt should have come from him."
Chunyu was silent for a while, then said in a low voice: "Don't worry, the county lord, there are servants and Lord Xie here, no one can hurt you!"
Gu Ning propped his chin, his white arms were exposed, and the black hair was draped behind his ears, like a bewitching fairy in the mountains.
She smiled: "Assassination is nothing, but I suspect...Chu Yunyi has other plans."
Hearing this, Chunyu's heart skipped a beat, she didn't know what to think of, and her face became a bit ugly: "There seems to be someone from the Jiang family in Yuezhou."
At this time, outside the closed door, there was a knock on the door.
Gu Ning looked at the tall figure, pursed the corners of his lips lightly, and grabbed Chunyu's sleeve the moment Chunyu wanted to leave.
"Do you want to leave your disheveled county master here?" Gu Ning stared at her fiercely, "Be sober!"
From Chunyu's attitude towards Xie Yan, she guessed that Chunyu knew Xie Yan's true identity a long time ago, but she never expected that Chunyu would be so afraid of Xie Yan.
Chunyu's movements froze, and she caught a glimpse of a large area of spring under the water from the corner of her eye, and she immediately woke up.
"The slave girl just lost her head!" Chunyu blushed, and hurriedly brought the clothes over, hurriedly wiped off the water droplets on Gu Ning's body, and put the clothes on for her.
Gu Ning retracted into the quilt, and pouted at Chunyu who was standing aside: "Now you can go."
However, Chunyu stood there like a piece of wood, as if she didn't hear Gu Ning's words.
It wasn't until the knock on the door sounded again that Chunyu choked out a sentence: "The princess ordered that you and Mr. Xie must not be alone in the room."
Gu Ning coughed, and his face turned red.
"Go and thank your lord for coming in."
Seeing that Gu Ning agreed to stay, Chunyu couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, but she avoided listening to the wall. She was not married yet, so she didn't want to know these things so early.
Xie Yan strode in, with a calm expression on his handsome face, as natural as walking into his own bedroom.
Just when he wanted to hug Gu Ning and kiss Fang Ze, he heard Gu Ning lower his head and cough softly, and kept winking at him.
"Your maidservant is waiting at the door." Chunyu said loudly, "Master Xie, if you have anything to say, please hurry up, we have to hurry tomorrow morning!"
Saying that, Chunyu opened the two doors and stood in the middle of the door like a door god.
"This is what my grandmother ordered." Gu Ning tried to make his expression natural, cleared his throat, "Is there anything else you can do, Mr. Xie?"
When Gu Ning spoke, he didn't dare to look into Xie Yan's eyes.
She was stared at by Xie Yan's aggrieved eyes, making her conscience uneasy, as if she had become a heartbreaker.
Suddenly, the curtain was pulled down, Chunyu's figure standing at the door became faintly visible, and Gu Ning couldn't see her face clearly at all.
And the next moment, Xie Yan sat beside her, holding her waist tightly with his big hands, the scorching temperature of his palms penetrated through the clothes, allowing Gu Ning to clearly feel Xie Yan's mood on this matter.
Gu Ning blinked, and based on the principle that the luck value delivered to the door should not be in vain, he simply kissed Xie Yan's thin lips neatly.
Just when she was about to leave, Xie Yan pinned the back of her head and was forced to deepen the kiss.
Gu Ning looked at the rising luck value bit by bit, his eyebrows and eyes curved.
"Just so happy?" Xie Yan's voice was hoarse, every time he saw Gu Ning's bright eyes, he wished to give her anything she wanted.
Gu Ning pressed his forehead against his chest, only showing two red ears dripping blood: "Yes."
She squeezed her hands, tried her best to suppress her pounding heart, and muttered with some regret: "It would be great if Chunyu wasn't here."
Xie Yan's Adam's apple tightened, thinking of the spring in Xie's mansion before leaving, he held Gu Ning's hand much harder.
Chunyu standing outside the door looked at the dark night sky, wishing to plug her ears.
……
At the same time, in the capital, the Proton Mansion was deserted.
The imperial physician was sitting in front of the bed, with his hands on Yan Yu's wrists, his expression very solemn.
Behind the imperial physician, Li Dehai looked worried: "What happened to the proton?"
"I suffered from the wind and cold." The imperial physician sighed, shook his head and said, "It's just that the proton is weak, and now he has suffered from the wind and cold, I'm afraid he will have to spend this winter in bed."
"Is there a risk of life?" Li Dehai asked worriedly, "The emperor is very concerned about the body of the proton, and asked the imperial hospital to use the best medicinal materials to heal the proton."
Cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the imperial physician, before he could answer, he heard Yan Yu coughing several times on the bed.
Yan Yu coughed and spoke for the imperial physician: "This is an old problem of mine, I just need to take care of it, and I ask Eunuch Li to thank the emperor for his kindness."
The imperial doctor also quickly said: "The lower officials will use the best medicinal materials to warm and nourish the proton's body, but according to proton's current physical condition, I'm afraid he can't go out."
There was a trace of disappointment in Yan Yu's eyes, but he quickly said thoughtfully: "I'm used to it, it's not a big deal."
Seeing Yan Yu being so kind, the imperial physician couldn't help but feel emotional. Could it be that good people don't live long?
Li Dehai said a few comforting words, and asked people to put all the medicinal materials sent by the emperor in front of Yan Yu, making sure that Yan Yu could feel the emperor's kindness.
Naturally, Yan Yu would not let him down, thanked him again and again, wishing he could drag his sick body to the Tai Chi Hall to thank him in person.
After some tugging between the two, Li Dehai left, taking the imperial physician along with him.
"Yan Zhizi's health is really as bad as you said?" Li Dehai was extremely suspicious, and warned, "You have to make a proper diagnosis, the emperor is quite suspicious of this."
The imperial doctor sighed softly: "He has a congenital deficiency, even if the Daluo Jinxian comes, it will be difficult to save him. The official has already checked the Ping An pulse for him for several months, and there is indeed no doubt. The cold is also expected by the official. among."
"Yan Zhizi's body is weak, and the wind and cold this time is not serious. According to my guess, after winter, he may have a serious illness."
Hearing the imperial physician's words, Li Dehai felt relieved, and hurried into the palace to report to the emperor.
"So, he really can't go out?" The emperor's suspicion dissipated a lot, but his eyebrows were still tightened, obviously he didn't trust Yan Yu very much.
Li Dehai thought about it in his heart, and said sympathetically: "The servant looked at Yan Zhizi, he really didn't look like a long-lived person, the servant coughed up blood when he saw him."
Hearing this, the emperor held the Buddhist beads on his wrist, pondered for a moment, but still did not completely dispel his doubts about Yan Yu: "Since he is not in good health, let him recuperate well, and don't come out these days."
Li Dehai understood that this was grounding in disguise.
He nodded: "Slave, let someone deliver the decree."
"Let someone send more medicinal materials." The emperor flicked the Buddhist beads, and said depressedly, "A mere proton will cost me several hundred-year-old ginseng in a blink of an eye."
Li Dehai lowered his head, not daring to speak.
In order to save time, the large troops set off first, and only Xie Yan led the three thousand princess guards sent by the eldest princess to escort the two of them.
Only ten miles out of the capital, Gu Ning heard Chu Shiling complaining again and again.
"Why are you not even ready for Ruanta? How is this Ruanta? Are you trying to make me restless every night?"
