Meanwhile, Qin Jiu suddenly felt a shiver after hearing that Gu Zezhi and her eldest brother were both going to Minzhou?
Although she already knew that her eldest brother wanted to join the army and that Gu Zezhi was leading the troops on the western border, but on the battlefield, weapons and swords has no eyes! What’s more, Minzhou was a naval battleground…
“Xiao Jiu.” Gu Zezhi’s gentle voice sounded again, “There are many Western goods in Minzhou. What do you want? I’ll bring them back to you.”
But knowing that neither Gu Zezhi nor her eldest brother was willing to live comfortably in this three-acre land in the capital, riding horses, walking down the streets, drinking, and listening to theaters, Qin Jiu calmed down soon after.
She couldn’t just stop them from building a career just because she was worried.
With a smile on her face, she lively replied, “I’ll make a list for you later.” Qin Jiu then thought to herself that since there were only ten days left before the expedition, she had to think quickly about what to prepare for them.
Gu Zezhi looked at her as his smile deepened.
The excited Qin Zening affectionately hooked his right arm over Gu Zezhi’s shoulder and said, “Third Brother Gu, it’s my treat today. Let’s go out and have a good meal!”
Overjoyed, Qin Zeyu was the first to agree. “Go, go!”
He has been confined to the mansion for several days, either practicing martial arts or studying with his master every day. He has also read a lot, since both his eldest brother and third sister have said that the martial arts exam requires a thorough examination.
Qin Jiu also knew that the naughty kid had been bored after being confined for several days, so she put away the drawings, seeing this Gu Zezhi casually said, “Let’s go. You can take care of the drawings later in the evening.”
Qin Jiu softly hummed.
So, the family went out happily.
Du Rui who was following behind couldn’t help but be extremely impressed at Gu Zezhi. Clearly her young miss wanted to return the drawings to Gu Zezhi but was instead fooled into keeping it, and with this, Gu Zezhi would have another reason to see her young miss again tomorrow.
On the way, Qin Zening, who was in a good mood, became very affectionate with Gu Zezhi. “Let’s go to the Yunbin Restaurant to eat, it’s on the next street. Their wine is brewed by the boss himself, which is a masterpiece.”
“Also, the Beijing cuisine in that restaurant is quite authentic. Later, you must try their eight signature dishes!”
“….”
The whole family walked over and did take a carriage, when they reached the street they saw a group of soldiers from the Five Cities Army and Horse Division coming in a mighty force, the person in charge was their acquaintance.
“Zening, going for a drink with your younger brother and sister?” Pei Qi pulled the reins and stopped a few steps away. The brown horse he was riding on snorted heavily from its nostrils and trampled on its iron hooves, looking excited.
After greeting them, Pei Qi hurriedly leaves, “If I hadn’t been in a hurry, I would definitely have a drink with you.'”
Qin Zening raised his eyebrows and said, “So busy?”
“Busy!” Pei Qi said with a wink from the corner of his eye and said without hesitation, “The second prince let Yelu Luan stab him.”
Qin Zening guessed that something had happened, but was still greatly surprised. With raised eyebrows, he asked. “No one was killed?”
He was good at grasping the key point, if the second prince or Yelu Luan’s life was put in danger Pei Qi would not have said it like this.
Pei Qi flicked the whip in his hand as he said, “The gate of the second prince’s residence is now surrounded by a lot of people who wanted to watch the fun, so we were dispatched to contain these people.”
Pei Qi felt that these busybodies were stupid, Yelu Luan was no longer there and the second prince was already carried into his mansion. There was nothing outside the mansion right now except a few pools of blood and the dagger that Yelu Luan had used to perpetrate the crime. However, even with this, it still attracted many idle people and surrounded the entire street making it difficult for people from other mansions to pass the street, so they were sent someone to Five Cities Army and Horse Division to file a complaint.
“I’m leaving.” Pei Qi patted his horse’s belly and rode off. Everyone behind him also rode up and quickly disappeared at the intersection ahead.
Qin Zening and Qin Zeyu looked at each other, the latter couldn’t help but mutter to himself, “Why did Yelu Luan stab the second prince?”
As Gu Zezhi continued walking, he casually said, “Yelu Luan felt betrayed by the second prince.”
From Gu Zezhi’s words, Qin Zening immediately realized that Gu Zezhi also knew this matter, and was itching to know the story behind it. “Do you know?”
Qin Jiu also liked to listen to gossip and looked at Gu Zezhi with shining eyes.
Qin Zeyu urgently urged, “Brother-in-law, tell us quickly.” Once again, he accidentally called him brother-in-law.
Gu Zezhi briefly and concisely talked about the misunderstanding between Yelu Luan and Gu Jing, all the way to Yuan Minggang and the Imperial Physician’s report.
Qin Jiu who was listening with great interest casually asked, “Where did he get hurt?”
Gu Zezhi replied briefly, “Thigh.”
Qin Zening said in disappointment, “Thigh ah. Looks like a minor injury.”
Gu Zezhi smiled but did not say anything.
Qin Jiu looked at Gu Zezhi’s sharp and angular side profile, and stared at the faint smile on his lips, always feeling as if there was something else in his smile.
Pulling his sleeve quietly, Qin Jiu blinked her eyes and silently gestured for him to continue talking, as if telling him not to keep the listeners in suspense.
Gu Zezhi silently chuckled, and the smile couldn’t stop overflowing from his eyes.
Knowing Qin Jiu’s impatience, he smiled and said, “With Gu Jing’s temperament, if he gets hurt, nine times out of ten, he will use the injury to win the emperor’s favor, at least let the emperor pity him, after all, Gu Jing is an imperial prince, blood is thicker than water, and the emperor is not a cold-hearted and hard-hearted person.”
“However, he said he was okay and wouldn’t even let the imperial physician see him…”
Gu Zezhi’s pupils were as transparent as a mirror, with a clear sharpness.
Qin Jiu: “???”
Qin Jiu didn’t understand for a moment and blinked suspiciously. Gu Zezhi’s words seem like he said something but at the same time, he didn’t.
Touching her chin, Qin Jiu lowered her gaze and pondered as her long eyelashes slightly trembled.
Meanwhile, Qin Zeyu scratched his head and couldn’t help but ask, “So, is he seriously injured, or is it just light?”
Gu Zezhi just smiled in response, thinking: I’m afraid this injury can’t be described as “serious” or “light.
Meanwhile, Qin Jiu suddenly felt a shiver after hearing that Gu Zezhi and her eldest brother were both going to Minzhou?
