Qianqianjie, kidnap a reborn prince back to the modern era
Chapter 6 First meeting
Qian You and the other two got rid of the annoying Nanny Li and met up with Qiao Mu who had set out earlier.
Qiao Mu drove a low-key carriage and helped Mother Chu get in.
There are two rows of seats in the car, covered with thick tiger-skin blankets, and a spacious seat on one side for people to lie down and rest.
There was a set of exquisite tea sets on the coffee table in the middle, the drawers were filled with various pastries, and in the corners of the car were various storybooks that Qian You and Qiao Nan liked to read.
"Qian You, you haven't updated the storybook for a while. Our library in Kyoto is almost overwhelmed by people urging for updates every day."
Qiao Mu spoke leisurely, and from time to time he would imitate the long cry of a flying bird.
"You just keep pushing the young lady. She has so many things to think about every day. Can't you let her take a break?"
Mother Chu looked at Qianyou lovingly and said dissatisfiedly to the outside of the car.
"Listen to mom, I won't urge you, okay?" Qiao Mu responded readily.
He respected the middle-aged woman who raised him and his sister. She had silently dedicated more than ten years of her best years to their three children.
Qiao Nan couldn't stop talking, hugged Qian You's arm, looked at her infatuatedly and said, "However, I am also anxious to see when the princess who has been living among the people will recognize the emperor?"
"Okay, I'll write a few more chapters when I'm not busy on the road these few days. I never thought Qiao Mu could turn the stories we told when we were bored into an industry. He's really capable."
"How many moments of leisure can you have? Master Hu in the west of the town and Master Bai San in the north of the town are both waiting for you to treat their families. It will take us a few days to leave Anxi Town, and I will help you count how many people have sent me medical consultation notices."
Qiao Nan counted on his fingers and looked at his brother sitting on the shaft of the cart with a resentful look, annoyed that he had arranged Qian You's schedule so tightly.
Qian You hugged Qiao Nan's waist, put his head lazily on her shoulder, and smiled at Qiao Mu who was driving the carriage.
The weather is very good and the curtains are drawn. Although it is just the end of the first month of the year, it is early spring this year and the temperature in the afternoon is very mild and comfortable.
Qian You looked at Qiao Mu, who had been away from home for more than a month, and felt that Qiao Mu, who had been traveling to Kyoto frequently during the past year, had become more of a Confucian businessman.
"Qianyou, look at your brother, do you think he seems different in some way?"
Qiao Nan hugged Qian You's slender waist and looked at her brother with a smile. She certainly knew the little thoughts in her brother's mind.
"Well! He is a little different now. He looks less like a modest gentleman and less like a profiteer, squeezing me hard." Qian You teased.
The two girls were laughing together, and Qiao Mu turned around and glanced at them lovingly.
Qiao Mu has just reached adulthood, with a flamboyant look, slender eyelids, sharp eye corners, and eyebrows slanting into his temples. When he looks at people with the sidelong glance, he looks very sharp and murderous, but when he smiles at you, his red lips and white teeth make people feel very seductive.
Those who are familiar with him know that he is a man who is both immortal and demonic. Not only is he a master in martial arts, he is also good at using his brain to do things. He has put Qian You's business stories into practice very successfully and now runs many businesses in Qianmai Palace.
Today, Qiao Mu wore a light blue robe with a cloud-woven pattern and a fine white jade pendant around his waist. One side had the word "Thousand" engraved on it, and the other side had a picture of a tall tree.
A closer look at the jade pendant reveals that the carving is somewhat stiff and the lines are not very smooth.
This is Qianyou's first work, which he learned from craftsmen in his spare time.
Qian You carved it for him based on the pattern he provided, and from the moment he tied it on, it never left his body.
Jade is a mineral unique to the top of the jade mountain.
When she was a child, Qian You and her friends accidentally discovered during playtime that the stones they cut with their bare hands when practicing internal strength contained white and ink-colored smooth jade inside. This discovery surprised her greatly.
Based on the knowledge she learned from her grandfather in her previous life, she boldly guessed that the rock on the top of the mountain should be a rare jade stone with pure texture and extremely high quality.
They mined it secretly, transported it down the mountain, and built a jade workshop.
Among the fugitives who were taken in, there happened to be an old craftsman who volunteered to take on an apprenticeship.
In five years, "Tianyi Jade Shop" opened in the four countries. Thanks to Qianyou's memory of jewelry styles, the shop was innovative and was sought after by the powerful and wealthy as soon as it was launched, and it enjoyed a high reputation in the four countries.
Qiao Mu stroked the jade pendant in his hand and glanced at Qian You's tied-up hair.
A flawless white jade hairpin was inserted diagonally into her hair bun, with a plum blossom carved on the top. It was a work that he had spent half a month polishing with the help of an old craftsman.
On the day of Qianyou's coming of age, he bribed his sister to replace the hairpin that Qianyou had prepared herself, and had Mother Chu put it on her personally.
Qiao Nan is one year older than Qian Youxu. Like his brother, he has upturned eyes, but his eyes are much bigger than his brother's and his gaze is clear and bright.
Her facial features are soft, giving her the feeling of a girl next door.
But who knows that she is the most domineering woman in Qianmai Palace. She is sassy and cool, with a well-behaved appearance, but her ruthless methods always catch people off guard.
Mother Chu smiled gently and looked at the three laughing children with comfort.
She was glad that she had taken in Qiao Mu and his sister that day. Not only did it give Qian You a childhood playmate, but she also had two more lovable children.
It can be said that in the following years, as her three children grew up, learned literature and martial arts from their master, and each of them became very capable, she became a pampered person, leading a life of enjoyment that she could not have imagined in several lifetimes.
......
Just like in their previous life, Cangyu and his group encountered several ambushes on their way back to Kyoto.
Fortunately, he had the memory of his past life and effectively avoided multiple ambushes, leaving the black-clad killers in solitude.
In his previous life, he suffered heavy losses on his way back to Kyoto.
The dozens of soldiers he brought back did not die on the battlefield, but were ambushed many times and more than a dozen of them were killed on the way, which made him very sad.
By now he knew that the people in black along the way were arranged by his seemingly friendly brother the Crown Prince and his third brother the Emperor, who was known as a refined and talented scholar.
In his previous life, he was brave and had no desire to compete with others. He was open-hearted towards his two royal brothers, especially the weak third brother, who was completely unprepared, resulting in him being ambushed and almost dying.
The third prince, who seemed to be a flower on the mountain top, became the one who had the last laugh and the sinner of the demise of Dongcang.
This life is much better than the previous one, and I have been safe and sound throughout the journey.
After several small ambushes, the guards were not seriously injured and finally arrived at the Riyue Slope outside the Shili Changting in the capital of the Dongqi Imperial City before sunset on the tenth day.
At this time, the drizzle was accompanied by a cold wind, which was getting heavier and heavier. He saw a dilapidated temple not far from Riyuepo. It seemed that he had stopped here in his previous life.
Thinking of this, his heart suddenly started beating wildly, as if it was being pulled by something and was about to jump out of his chest.
He calmed his heart which was beating wildly for no reason, soothed the horse which was still unwilling to leave, and slowed down his pace.
A green carriage was parked in front of the dilapidated temple. The horse was tied to a tree and was taking a rest with its head down.
Besides, the surroundings were open and there was no movement.
He ordered his followers to rest where they were and decided to take them into the temple to take shelter from the rain and then march into the city early the next morning.
In the wind and rain, he pushed open the dilapidated door and was the first to enter the ruined temple.
Facing us, there was a not-so-tall earthenware Buddha statue covered with spider webs, and there was no trace of any incense or offerings on the shabby wooden table.
On the right side of the temple, where there was no rain, a pile of dry branches was forming a fire with flames flickering on and off. Several people were sitting around warming their hands, and the two groups of people looked at each other at the same time.
As Cangyu and others entered, cold wind and rain blew in, and the flames kept jumping, and it took a long time before they calmed down a little.
Cangyu led his men to the left and found a dry place to sit down. An inexplicably familiar feeling made him look up and look at the person opposite him again.
There were three young people sitting around a middle-aged woman in front of the fire. Two of them were young women, one in white and the other in green. The moment his eyes met with the women in white, his blood seemed to boil.
The woman had a pair of crescent-shaped eyes, and the flames reflected in her eyes seemed to be exploding with light.
She has a small face, a straight nose and upturned mouth corners. At this moment, her expression is calm, and she looks sweet and friendly.
is her.
Compared with her heroic appearance on the battlefield six years later, people have an even greater desire to protect her.
He tried hard to search his memory. It was also a rainy day in his previous life. He had stayed here for a while. When he got up to leave, a woman and three young men happened to enter the temple to shelter from the rain. He passed by the woman in white.
Could it be that they had met so early in their previous life?
His heart suddenly tightened.
I can only blame myself for being blind and not paying attention to the encounter that day. I never recognized the true face of the masked woman later, and I didn't know which mansion she was from. As a result, I searched for her for many years but never saw her.
The memory of meeting the woman before his death kept churning in his heart like burning magma.
In her previous life, the woman was wearing white armor and a battle robe of the same color. She sat on a white horse with her back straight, looking heroic, calm and capable.
She was known as the God of War in White, and everyone in Dongcang was both frightened and admired her.
Behind her, there was always the young man sitting by the fire, wearing black armor, a black battle robe, and riding a black warhorse. At that time, the people of Nanqi called him the "flower-protecting warrior" and he was very famous.
At her side, a young general stood on his horse with a sword in hand.
He has bright eyebrows and eyes, is extraordinarily handsome, and has a natural noble air.
He rode a maroon horse and wore a copper-colored armor. The five-clawed flying dragon embroidered with gold thread on his battle robe sparkled brightly in the sun.
He is the new emperor of Nanqi, Qi Luobai.
According to rumors, he was once the Crown Prince of Nanqi and was rescued from danger by a woman when he was a teenager on the run. The two spent three years together.
The woman accompanied him all the way, helped him take back everything that belonged to him, and was crowned the new emperor of Nanqi.
He announced to the world for her that he would be his only queen in this life and promised to be together for the rest of his life.
His heart was clenched in pain and beating wildly, and his expression was filled with uncontrollable surprise.
The woman still sat quietly by the fire, her eyes lowered. Although she felt a burning gaze staring at her, she did not seem embarrassed or uneasy.
The woman had a natural posture. She sat there and slowly added dry branches to the fire. She looked leisurely, elegant and calm.
Qiao Mu looked worried. He was very resistant to the gazes from the side staring at Qian You, and he also boldly looked back at them.
More than twenty people could not hide their murderous aura. They must have been galloping on their horses. They all had deep fatigue on their faces, and some of them had some untreated wounds on their bodies.
The leading man was wearing black armor and was about twenty years old.
He is tall and strong, with broad shoulders and a narrow back, and his posture is straight.
The face seems to have been baptized by wind and sand, and has a healthy bronze color.
The facial contours were as if carved by a knife, with sharp edges and corners that were slightly soft, and there was no sense of incongruity at all, but one could feel a strong and sharp aura.
At this moment, in addition to the vicissitudes of life and fatigue on the man's face, there was also strong surprise, obvious astonishment, and excessive excitement, which made the people sitting around him look at each other for a moment.
"Everyone, can you lend me some dry firewood to bake some dry food?"
The leading man asked softly, while extremely restraining his aura.
There was a moment of silence in the temple.
"it is good!"
A clear voice sounded.
"Come and sit here, we are about to leave."
The woman in white answered as she stood up and brushed off the non-existent dust on her body.
Several people around him also stood up and picked up the umbrellas and the few items on the ground.
Cangyu's words were stuck in his chest, causing his breathing to slow down and become much lighter. He watched the woman walk past him, just like in his previous life, but also different from his previous life.
After watching the woman and her group get on the carriage and slowly drive away, he came to his senses. He quickly called over Gu Feng and Xiu Zhu, whispered to them, and the two nodded and left quickly.
