MTL - Princess a Lives By Kissing Me Every Day-Chapter 80
In the early morning of the second day, before the sun rose, Lin Moran had already counted all the people.
The food and medicine for the carriages and horses have been properly prepared, and even in case of danger on the way, the officers and soldiers also carry weapons with them, which is bound to protect the safety of all the people.
"Mo Ran, be careful." Qin Yuci said slowly, and got up early like her, and went to the city gate with Qin Yuewei and Wang Zhizhou to see them off, "Be sure to return safely."
When she said this, her voice was very calm, neither reluctance nor sadness, unlike the tenderness of last night, at first glance, she was no different from the usual high-ranking, elegant and dignified eldest princess, just like this Standing upright in front of people, his posture is cold, like a god.
At this moment, the sky is not completely lit up, and the surrounding area is still a little dark. For convenience, many people who came to see them off lit up lamps one after another. Upper body, easily enveloping people in it.
With the reflection of the lights, even a stone can be reflected softly, let alone this flesh and blood person in front of him.
"Yes." Lin Moran replied, saluted her respectfully, but then secretly looked into her eyes when she got up, obviously only for a moment, but still touched a lot of warmth that others couldn't notice or feel.
Although he couldn't speak too much, Qin Yuci had clearly written everything he wanted to say in his eyes.
It was obvious and sincere, and Lin Moran felt it all at once, and soon there was a moment of warmth in his heart.
"Although the princess believes in Mo Ran." Lin Mo Ran chuckled, even if he had to travel for several days, he might encounter countless dangers and difficulties along the way, but there was no uneasiness in his heart. Instead, he felt peaceful and peaceful. calm.
All of this stems from what Qin Yuci said to her yesterday, she said - I will always be here waiting for you.
"Farewell, Mo Ran, everyone." Lin Mo Ran opened his lips, greeted everyone, then turned and left. The chariots, horses and crowd gradually moved away in the field of vision, and finally disappeared gradually, and were no longer visible.
It was also at this time that the morning sun slowly rose from the sky, and then sprinkled wisps of twilight, completely illuminating everything around the body and cleaning away all sorrows and sorrows.
"Your Highness." After a while, Qin Yue stepped forward slowly, pursed her lips and looked at Qin Yuci's side face, "Let's go back."
"En." Qin Yuci responded, raised his eyes and turned to leave, running in the opposite direction with Lin Moran, and walked back to the city.
He looked as if nothing had happened, but he subconsciously clenched his hand hidden in his sleeve at the moment he heard the city gate closed, and did not let go for a long time.
"It must be safe."
Then she said softly in her heart.
The severe drought lasted for several months. Not only did the agricultural harvests almost disappear, people and animals had difficulty drinking water, but there were also rumors of epidemic diseases one after another.
Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and the method of isolation and treatment was adopted, which did not allow the epidemic to continue to spread. Later, doctors sent by the court to participate in the treatment, the patient's condition has gradually improved.
"If Mo Ran's trip goes well, then everyone can be properly transferred." Qin Yue said slightly, raising her hand to pour a cup of tea for Qin Yuci, "There are about 70% of the people left in the city, divided into two groups, right? question."
"What the second princess said is true." Qin Yuci said softly. In the past few days, while she was distributing food, she was also observing the facilities and structures of various places, and made sure where they needed to be repaired and where they needed to be added.
Natural disasters are inevitable, but people can prepare for them to prevent them from being in danger again in the future.
The two discussed this matter until noon, and after a little lunch, they continued to rush about the common people's affairs in the afternoon, and finally got a moment's rest until late at night.
But now there is no one waiting in the room.
Qin Yuci raised his hand and pushed open the door, subconsciously looking around, all he could see was the empty and simple bedroom, nothing else.
It has been a long time since I have experienced such a scene. Ever since I met Lin Mo, she is no longer alone. Suddenly there is another person in my life. I can see her smiling face every day when I look up, and hear her laughing with me. , I pretended to be her in my heart, and I was thinking about her in my mind.
There is no one who does not yearn for warmth, but after staying in the warmth for a long time, it will be difficult to get used to it when returning to the original place again.
Qin Yuci is not like this.
It's just that she still has things to do right now, so it's too late to be sad.
Thinking of this, she raised her hand and pushed open the window, clapped her hands twice, and then snapped her fingers again. Soon after, a letter was thrown in through the window and landed on the ground with the wind.
It was a letter from the middle of Beijing. Open it, and it explained the affairs of Luzhi County.
Now the people in Xubei are not completely out of danger, and because of the actions of the court, Lu Zhixian was arrested and other things have caused public turmoil. Qin Yuci had already asked people to explain the pros and cons of this matter to the emperor in the court that day. If there is no clear evidence However, the emperor would not do it lightly, and even ordered the Ministry of Punishment to thoroughly investigate the case.
After several days of stalemate, they finally found an opportunity to contact Lu Zhixian.
Listening to the dictation of the person involved is always better than knowing it from the mouth of a bystander.
The letter indicated that Lu Zhixian had indeed come to visit with a greeting card in person, but it was clearly brought up by Wang Zhizhou one day, and it was he who sent someone to deliver a message in person, saying that there was a plan to help the people of Xubei through the crisis.
Xu Bei had been in disaster for several months, and now he heard such news suddenly, how can people be unhappy and overjoyed, although he has never had contact with Wang Zhizhou on weekdays, but Lu Zhixian finally complied.
However, he always kept Qin Yuci's previous reminders in mind, and deliberately asked people to remember the appearance of the visitor, and was always cautious on the way to visit in person.
Unexpectedly, he still fell into the trap. Wang Zhizhou blamed him for the embezzlement of disaster relief funds, and deliberately found someone to imitate his handwriting to rewrite the secret letter. Just hired by him, not a real servant.
But things are not without room for maneuver.
The letter mentioned that although Wang Zhizhou sent someone to draft the handwriting, and even found the same paper, it was still different from the one sent by Lu Zhixian. There are some traces that are usually invisible and can only be noticed by soaking in water.
There are still many such papers in his mansion. Although the court ordered a thorough search after he was arrested, these papers are not conspicuous and have nothing to do with the case, so they should not be destroyed.
In addition, the letter also mentioned the reason why Lu Zhixian did not provide these evidences on the spot.
In fact, Qin Yuci knew these things without looking at them.
Now she is too far away from Beijing, and Xu Bei's matter has not yet come to fruition. Rao Zhixian's early confession of these evidences cannot be used as a reason for his innocence. On the contrary, it will only increase the danger. .
That being the case, why not just drag it on and wait for her rescue.
"He's a smart man." Qin Yuci smiled, went to the candle and burned the letter in his hand, washed up a bit, then gently went to bed and lay down, but tossed and turned repeatedly, unable to fall asleep no matter what.
In the end, he had to stand up again, raised his hand to open the cabinet, took out his bag, found Lin Moran's clothes and carried them out.
When I smelled the familiar and pleasant fragrance of peach blossoms, the uneasiness and worry in my heart finally dissipated a lot. The dignified Princess Dazhao, the future prince, is usually majestic and holds great power, which is very enviable.
But who knows that at night, she has to hug her lover's clothes and sniff her letter to force herself to fall asleep.
"Nothing." Qin Yu resigned, obviously scolding himself, but there was no trace of shame on his face.
Instead, he hugged the clothes in his arms even more tightly, pulling his lover into his arms as he did every night.
Time passed quickly, and a few days passed in a blink of an eye. Counting the time, Lin Moran should be back soon.
In the past few days, the affairs of the common people have been handled properly, and some officers and soldiers have been freed up to start repairs, and now they happen to be sent to welcome them.
A group of people left the city early in the morning, but they did not return in the evening.
It should be... it shouldn't be.
In order to wait for someone, the main hall was still brightly lit today, Qin Yuci was sitting on a chair drinking tea, his expression remained unchanged, but his eyes gradually turned cold.
"Your Highness." After a long time, Wang Zhizhou slowly opened his mouth, his tone was very low and tentative, "Miss Lin and the others...couldn't something happen to them?"
"Why did Wang Zhizhou say that?" Before Qin Yuci could speak, Qin Yuewei continued, "It would take several days for ordinary people to travel from Xu Bei to Qianning, let alone so many people. People together, even if they are fully prepared, they will always be delayed by various unpredictable things, and it is not unexpected to return later."
"We just have to wait patiently." Qin Yuewei said, then raised her eyes to Qin Yuci who was at the side, "Your Highness, what do you think?"
There seemed to be some special meaning in the tone, like a deliberate attempt.
Sensing her intentions, Qin Yuci lowered his eyes and continued to drink tea, without changing the expression on his face, and continued, "What the second princess said is true."
"Just wait patiently."
There didn't seem to be much worry in the words, and people couldn't even guess what she meant, whether she had a lot of trust in Lin Moran, or she didn't care at all.
"..."
Unknowingly, the sound of horseshoes outside the door gradually became clearer, and then someone came to report quickly, saying that today they led the people to wait for a long time but did not see Miss Lin and the others, and they couldn't bear it until evening. That's why we sent everyone to search separately.
"What about after that?" Qin Yue asked slightly.
"Afterwards," the man paused, as if he didn't know how to report the matter, and did not continue until he was reprimanded by Qin Yuewei, "afterwards, someone found a lot of blood and the corpses of several wild wolves on a road. , After some inspection, some clothes and other trivial things were also found, it seems that there has been an incident of wolves attacking people."
"And there... is the place that must pass through from Qianning back to Xubei."
