In the Fengyuan County.
There was a deadly hush below the gate.
On the gate tower, Prefect Guo flatted on the ground, looking at the ferocious-looked head. He showed the white of his eyes, panting as if he could not get any air.
As the colonel of the garrison was decapitated, archers and soldiers put down their weapons and got down on one knee to show full obedience to the Eastern Depot.
Shouts and cries burst out from the crowd below again, and this time their shouting was more heated and uniform,
"Well done! Well done! That goddamned officer deserves it!"
Leng Qingtang walked to the wall. He gestured them to be quiet and listen carefully.
Just moments ago, the victims saw this man in light blue killed that hateful colonel for them. He was standing on the wall, clothes fluttering in the wind. He was handsome and elegant, straight and tall, just like a celestial coming to save the world. So th
Gu Yunxi fell into the carriage. The ache in the abdomen made her cough. Drops of blood froth came out of her throat.Her eyes darkened, but she didn't give up. She untied the silk sash and jumped at the masked man again.During the fight, she choked the man's neck with the silk sash tightly. The masked man let out a stuffy groan, and his upper body struggled violently.The carriage went out of control and began to sway here and there. Several times it almost hit onto thick tree trunks.Gu Yunxi did not want to die in the wild mountains. She wanted to go to Jiangan to see the Master on her mind!When Leng Qingtang's warm smile came to her mind, Gu Yunxi felt she was full of encouragement.She opened her mouth and bit hard on the masked man's neck.The masked man made a piercing scream as if he were a rooster being strangled. His voice was particularly shrill.This kind of voice.
It was January 15th of the lunar calendar when the aid convoy arrived at Fengyuan County.The convoy received a warm welcome as they entered the city.As everyone expected, they had food!Finally, they could have hot buns and thick porridge. They would also have firewood to warm themselves and enough timber to set tents and mend their houses.The civilians were wild with joy. They gathered around the wagons, looking at soldiers with excitement and hope.Prefect Guo came to greet them on his own.When they were unloading goods, Xiao Xiaoshen led Prefect Guo aside, pointing at Gu Yunxi who was busy with unloading not far away from them, and put on an act,"Do you see her? That is our Master's Wife. She's here to escort imperial harem's donation to Jiangan and relieve the victims. You and your family must treat her well!""She...?"Prefect Guo looked at the direction Xia
"No, I won't go! I came all the way to see you, but you want me to leave. I'm not going anywhere unless, unless you let me wait upon you!"Gu Yunxi had made up her mind. Sobbing and mumbling, she just wouldn't go and refused to listen to any persuasion.Leng Qingtang sighed in silence. He felt both angry and amused.She was only fifteen years old. Compared with him, she was petite and soft and ought to be cherished by him at the bottom of his heart.This petite girl could be really annoying as well as tempting.Leng Qingtang's heart got warm again in a twinkling. The unpleasant past, wrapping his traumatic heart like a thick scab, were swelled, loosened, and be washed away by her hot tears.He enfolded her in his arms and coaxed,"Alright, alright. I won't drive you away. Don't cry."His cold fragrance and memorable temperature, along with all other familiar features, came back to
The porridge shed closest to Guo's Mansion was in the West Fengyuan Street. Prefect Guo's daughter, Feiyi, and two servants were there.At this hour, there was already a long line outside the porridge shed. One servant was scooping porridge in front of the pot and handing them to the victims. The other was maintaining the order. Feiyi was on the other side, handing out warm steamed buns. She said,"No rush. Please stay in line and follow the order. We have enough porridge and buns. Everyone will get them."The cold wind was blowing as if blaze sliding through people's faces. Feiyi's face was already red because of the cold. She frequently huddled her neck into the heavy coat with fox fur collar. She constantly stamped her feet in the porridge shed. When she opened her mouth, a stream of white smoke came out.She looked very surprised when she saw Gu Yunxi's carriage.Gu Yunxi just jumped out of the carriage when Feiyi
Gu Yunxi turned his head subconsciously and looked at the owner of the arm.Master!At her side, Leng Qingtang, dressed in a python robe, lifted the woman who was on her knees, turned his head, and called a guard."Do you know the way to the clinic in North Town? Now drive to send the mother and the child and let the doctor treat the child."Feiyi said nearby,"Master, I can arrange her mother-in-law to take a break at the Prefect's Mansion. After Le and his mother come back from seeing the doctor, they can meet there."Leng Qingtang nodded with a satisfied smile, "That's good."Everything being in order, the victims gathered outside the porridge shed gradually dispersed.It was almost evening, and all the relief food has been distributed. Feiyi and Qinger extinguished the stove, dumped the burned coal residue, and moved the porridge-cooking appliances to the carriage outside the
After walking for a while in the snow, Leng Qingtang looked straight ahead and suddenly asked,"Girl, you like children very much, don't you?""!"The Master's question was too abrupt. Gu Yunxi dared not answer it hastily.Obviously, he was a eunuch. Even if they lived together in the future, they would have no children.Right now he asked this kind of question. She naturally thought that he deliberately probed her because of inferiority."Master, why are you asking this?""I just saw you disregarding yourself, feeding the decoction mouth-to-mouth to save the kid with asthma. I felt that you might like children."He walked with his head raised, his beautiful eyes narrowed, and his elegant smile showed a hint of cunning wickedness."I, I don't like children!"Gu Yunxi bowed her head slightly and answered firmly."Master, you don't know how ann
Gu Yunxi leaned on Leng Qingtang's chest, blushed. She tried to calm her breath and reminded in a soft voice,"Master, you haven't extinguished the candle...""Take it easy. I want to have a good look at you... Girl, do you miss me? We've been apart for a long time."Leng Qingtang asked tenderly. He tilted up Gu Yunxi's delicate chin with his big hand to set her sight on him.She was so close to him that his beautiful face took up the entire field of her vision."Do you miss me?"Hadn't got her answer, he repeated his question, accentuated, hankering for her approval.It seemed that there were sparks splashed from their intersection in the air when they met each other's eyes. Tides of emotion that was hard to put into words surged silently in the man's and the woman's eyes.Gu Yunxi blushed at the sweet affection in his words. She darted her eyes away and equivocated,
Jiangan, Fengyuan County.Today, the Eastern Depot would leave Fengyuan and inspect another county. Leng Qingtang got up early and asked Gu Yunxi to pack up.In the yard, they encountered the maid, Qinger, who drew Gu Yunxi aside at once and looked at her up and down."Qinger, what are you doing?" Gu Yunxi asked her in detestation."Lady..." Qinger looked mysterious and was about to say something but stopped.Gu Yunxi shook her head impatiently. She shrugged away from Qinger, "If you don't have anything else to say, I am going to pack up. We will leave for Fanyang this afternoon.""Well," Qinger pulled Gu Yunxi's arm again and plucked up to ask, "I just want to ask you... if the Master... hurt you last night...""Hiss..." Gu Yunxi felt embarrassed. She hurriedly covered Qinger's mouth and blamed her sourly,"Hey, watch your mouth, little girl. What are you thinking of? Maybe I sho
