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
Outside Yongning Palace, Ming Lan waved in panic and grievance at Wan Li, who stood aggressively in front of him."Your Lordship, you wronged me. How can I not be considerate after the long years serving Her Grace? I beseeched His Majesty for the Jiangan's food relief job, and I almost got it. Yet Her Majesty came out of nowhere and recommended the Eastern Depot Master Leng Qingtang as the imperial envoy. There was nothing I could do..."Frowning at his explanation, Wan Li cast his fiery eyes away from Ming Lan's pale face towards the distance and muttered to himself."Empress Qian... Hasn't she been claiming to be sick for a long time? When did she come out again? Showing such favor to the Eastern Depot, does she intend to join forces with Leng Qingtang?"Standing by Wan Li's side, Ming Lan heard every word of his monologue. He took the opportunity to move closer to Wan Li and whispered,"Your Lordship, that sounds re
Terra Nova's ninth year of the Daedalic Years, early spring.Kamakawa Yusui is shocked and annoyed when he receives news of a coup at the Imperial Palace and the imminent ascension of Prince Fuchi Yasutaka to the throne as the next Emperor.Since the Kunhuang Island and Huananhe lost a battle, Kamachi sailors suffered a heavy blow, Kamakawa was forced to take the remaining troops retreated to the south of Kunhuang Island, Tsuneoshima stationed.Unexpectedly, just when he was trying to avoid the previous shame and had been intensifying the study of the new combat program, the country had a great turnaround.Can't think too much, Kamakawa by water immediately point all 10,000 Ying army, lead five Anzai ship and a number of ships, with enough artillery Furlong machine fire speed back to Ying, swore to fight with and Shigeru cuts a high and low winners and losers.One night, as Kamakawa's fleet secretly approached Mizumura Harbor in Kyoto, a thick fog sudde
In the banquet hall of the palace, the fire and candles were bright, four dancing girls lined up, green silk buns, colorful makeup, silk sleeves fluttering and swaying, dancing in a slow and rhythmic dance.Two or three male musicians are not far from them, playing strings, flute, drums, each person's face is calm and solemn, but in the eyes of God duh, seems to have the essence of the aura of a hidden flash.The dinner was organized to celebrate the fifteenth birthday of Emperor Fuchi Masaharu, but due to the defeat of the Terra Nova army in Weihai, many of the entertainments were temporarily canceled, and only the traditional Yehime songs and dances were retained.Profound Ya Qing was the main character of tonight's banquet, at this time he was wearing brand new scarlet damask silk clothes kneeling above the chief belonging to him, looking quiet and enjoying the songs and dances.On the seats to his left were the former Emperor's side consort, Daiji, with h
Terra Nova, Kyoto.As night falls, in a short house in the civilian area, the blind man is anxiously waiting for his mother-in-law to return home from work.She hadn't been back for a day and a night, and that definitely hadn't happened in the past.Could it be that the Ninth Princess has encountered something on her end?Rustling footsteps stopped unexpectedly at the door.The blind man's sense of hearing is much more sensitive than normal people, his eyebrows slightly gathered, and without moving, he got up and lightly rubbed his steps to the wooden cabinet, and touched a sharp dagger from the top of the cabinet and quietly hid it in the sleeve of his coat.The door of the room opened, and by the sound of the footsteps coming in there should be two of them."You're Suigo Show's man, aren't you?"The one who asked the question in Terra Nova was a young man.The blind man turned his head sideways, carefully recognizing the source
A cold wind cut through the long, narrow corridor, and the lights flickered dimly.The man's ragged gasps continued to spill out of the closed wooden lattice barricade door, accompanied by the occasional few hushed cries of pain from the woman."Haru, come on, I'll accompany you to your room."Looking at Yuan Ya Qing's stagnant and godless clear face, Yun Shi's heart seized more than just pain as she tugged on one of his arms.The commotion in the room was in no way suitable for a teenager to be listening in.The teenager's eyes were lax as he took two steps with her, speaking quietly in Chinese: ."...Master, you have to trust me as well...it wasn't Mother and I's idea to march into Da Yi."Yun Shi suddenly became miserable inside, opened and closed his nose and said."I believed you, never had a doubt, and it was for that reason that I traveled across the river and across the sea to meet you in person in Terra Nova."The two co
"Yue Xilou, you traitor shall not die!"Qi and blood surged, and a strong hatred that had never been felt before invaded Yun Shi's consciousness.She jumped up with her eyes heavy with red and lunged at her enemy with all her might, reaching for his neck.Yue Xilou laughed scornfully and kicked her backwards with a flying leg.Yun Shi fell out onto the hard floor a few feet away, choking on blood and letting out a pained _groan_.Wamochi stretched his neck to look at it, grinning imploringly.Tsukishiro looks at the samurai on either side :)"Don't just stand there, take her down and keep her under good guard, she'll be of great use in the future.""Slow down ......"Yun Shi forced to endure the pain of bones about to break trembling climbed up, far away from looking at the abyss Ya Qing, the expression of desolate:"Your Majesty, I have something to say to you, please send the counselor."Empress Yuanya immediately s
The fact that the mute applicant, Yun, who was originally scrubbed out of the test, has been recognized by the Emperor as the Imperial Chef, shocks the entire Grand Cookhouse early the next morning.The cooks and handymen who had looked down on her earlier were now gathered in front of the stove in the cooking room, watching intently as she operated it herself.Even in the past days always rigid board a big white face of apricot leaf female master, this time all people before and after chasing after Yun Shi everywhere running, flattery, mouth like a river, all do their best to please. At sunrise, Yunshi was wearing a green coat and pants, put on a large apron to the stove to do the work.With white flour rolled out and crabmeat and shrimp mince and red fish roe in the filling, the meat buns are pinched out with absolutely thirty-three folds.Chicken breast, corn and green beans are sauteed in oil, thickened with soy sauce and pan-fried wine, and wrapped in so
He is, after all, the Emperor!Following the direction of Master Apricot Leaf's kneeling, Yun Shi looked at the teenager, his eyes filled with astonishment.The standing tasseled crown and the yellow coat are indeed the symbols of the imperial nobility of Terra Nova.But, this young man, he is actually the Emperor."Mute, why don't you kneel down!"The apricot leaf matron raised her eyes to the unresponsive Gu Yunshi and chided."Eh, forget it, forget it ...... Master Chief, you get up too."Meeting Yun Shi's eyes, the teenager's face flushed red and blushed as he explained: ."Granny, I don't mean to deceive you ...... I, I didn't eat well in the evening meal, and I was really hungry just now."Yun Shi's complexion returned to normal, pursed her lips and waved her hand, indicating that she didn't mind.Heh, how could she mind?She was begging for it!The hostess rises obsequiously and comes up to nod at the tee
The night fell slowly, blotting out the last rays of red light in the sky.The entire Western Garden was silent.Cloudseeker stood in the tiny compound under the endless sky, raising his head to look up at the dark inky colors of the night sky.In the field of vision, that heavy darkness seems to carry some kind of adsorption magic, only teaching people to look at a glance, want to look through.She failed the test to become a chef and lost her chance to enter the palace and meet the Emperor.Such a result directly disrupted all her latter plans.After losing her temper for a while, she thought of Hua Nanhe, who is still fighting in the battlefield, Yingyu, who is trapped in the palace of Dayi, and brother Mu Xiu, who is waiting for them to return home.Yun Shi's eyes burned as she quickly regained her fighting spirit.Now is not the time to be discouraged, since one way does not work, then find another way.The hour was already
Terra Nova, outside the Abyssinian Palace, West Court.The large cooking room was busy with players in white shirts and blue pants around wooden cases and stoves.In five days, Emperor Fuchiya's fifteenth birthday will be celebrated, and not only will there be a large-scale celebration dinner at the palace, but an all-day parade and festival will be organized throughout Kyoto."Faster, faster, the hour for the king to pass the meal is almost here, and later on your handmade delicacies will be the basis for whether or not you can stay as a loose cook."The woman in charge, Apricot Leaf, is in her thirties, with a purple shirt and pants, wandering around every corner of the cooking room with a stern look, urging the contestants with her mouth, and repeatedly scrutinizing their cooking techniques with her cold and warm gaze.The twenty casual chef applicants came from Terra Nova folk, both men and women, and most of their referrals were cooks and assistant
