One Curtain Wind Moon Nine Heavens

Chapter 40
In the following days, Yuan Zhao lived like a useless person.

According to her previous injury experience, that injury was nothing, but it never healed, and she was still weak.After careful calculation, she had been lying down for at least half a month, and she wanted to go to the ground to move around and practice the sword skills taught by her master.

It's a pity that she doesn't even have the strength to hold a sword, let alone walk around the world with a sword.

"Uncle Ji, I seem to have been poisoned again." When Uncle Ji came to greet him, Yuan Zhao expressed his doubts, "so the wound will never heal."

It was almost the same as when the whole army was wiped out in the house that day.

Ever since he found out that a guard had abandoned his master, Yuan Zhao's attitude towards Luo Yan and Wu Xi was a bit subtle, and he couldn't trust him as much as before.Luo and Wu are not very good at verbal expression, and for a while, the three of them often get along with each other in a cold situation.

Feeling unwell, she kept her composure and waited until someone she trusted came.

"What does the princess want to do?" Uncle Ji raised his eyebrows.

"Practice martial arts." Can't stay idle.

In this barren mountain, no one is looking for trouble, she can only practice martial arts to relieve boredom.

"No," Uncle Ji understood her restless temperament, and explained, "Master Hou ordered you to rest in peace before returning to Beijing, so that no one will see your flaws."

Following Lord Hou's order, let the little princess's injury heal slowly, and when he returns to Beijing, he will have to pass the test of the imperial doctor.

"Why?" Yuan Zhao was puzzled.

"The capital is full of relatives and relatives of the emperor. They are different from the children you beat in Nanzhou. They are all delicate and expensive, and they don't need to be beaten. If you beat them up, the Marquis and his wife will not only be punished, but also have to bear the burden of lax discipline." infamy."

The punishment is not terrible, what I am afraid of is that the bad reputation will affect the marriage of several children in the family.Even if she is a prostitute, she can't be too capricious, please be patient when it's time to restrain yourself.

"The Taoist priest taught you to practice internal skills, right?" Uncle Ji said with a know-it-all expression, "Don't practice for now, just be an ordinary child, and go back to the capital for ten days to deal with what you have to deal with. Anything goes."

Otherwise, no matter how effective his medicine is, it won't be able to support her speed of recovery from the inside out.

As for her wound, there was medicine applied by a mysterious person, which saved her life, but the medicine's effect was not obvious, and the injury still looked serious.Hou Ye thought that the other party did it on purpose to prevent the doctors of the Hou Mansion from knowing his identity based on the properties of the medicine.

Therefore, if she is not afraid of pain, she can work hard, anyway, the injury will not heal for a while.

Yuan Zhao: "..."

In this way, on the way back to Beijing, a few ordinary people who walked away from the team to ensure safety found that there was a young gentleman in the team, who was weak and always sitting in a wooden chair with wheels and being pushed around. walk.

Although he has no worries about food and clothing, he has never seen him smiling and full of sorrow from the beginning to the end.

Seeing this, several common people secretly regretted and sighed: Hey, God is fair. He has given him glory and wealth, but he may not be blessed to enjoy it.In comparison, although my family is poor, isn't it a blessing for my children to be able to run and dance?
Unfortunately, I don't know which nobleman's family members this team is escorting.There are no markings on the body, so you can't tell...

Just as everyone was guessing wildly, a middle-aged man dressed as a samurai wearing a narrow-sleeved gown and a scarf rushed over quickly, and bowed respectfully to a follower in the team:

"Humble job Qu Er is the guard of Wei Wei Qu Guangping's residence. If you have something to do, come to see Lord Hou!"

A few ordinary people rubbing their cars to keep safe: "..."? ! !Marquis? ! !

The crowd was too frightened to think about it, and pulled their wives and children limply, turned around and knelt down in the direction of the carriage.Knowing that the convoy was escorting a nobleman, she never expected that the car driver of a Marquis was actually the driver.

According to the law, if the common people dare to disturb the driving of the prince, they are not responsible for killing them.

The entourage of the Hou Mansion waved his hand indifferently, and a person walked out immediately, took the frightened civilians aside, and then stared at the person with a gun:

"What's the matter?"

"I was ordered by General Wei (Wei Wei) to go back to my hometown in Anbei to pick up my family members. Unexpectedly, I was attacked by mountain bandits on the way, and encountered flash floods when I passed Fengchuan. The women's family members were frightened, and there were not many guards left in the mansion. Fortunately, I met Hou Driving a classic car, I'm here to ask for asylum.

When he returned to the capital safely, the humble officer reported everything to General Wei and went to the mansion to thank him personally. "

The main reason is that the female family members of the Qu family have lived in the north for a long time, and have never seen a mountain torrent, which frightened the old mother of the Qu family to fall ill that night, and made everyone jump in anxiety.

"You wait a moment."

The entourage gave him a sympathetic look, and summoned a guard to report everything in front of Lord Hou's car.

"Qu Guangping?" Yuan Zhao, who was reciting poems for father's assessment, raised his head in doubt when he heard the report, "Who is it? Why haven't I heard of it?"

Tsk, a tone of countless people who knew people came out of her mouth, which made people laugh and cry.

"The military officer in charge of the palace ban, we have to get along with each other from now on, remember to be polite to others, and don't bully others." Bei Yueyan reminded his daughter to ask Ji Wu to go out to receive arrangements.

Yuan Zhao kept his mouth shut and continued to recite.

The father and daughter are a Marquis and a princess. According to the rules, even General Wei will come to visit here, let alone his family members.Unless some of those family members have received some royal titles, even the elderly are allowed to come.

"My lord, it looks like it's going to rain. Why don't we go a few more miles and rest at the station?" Soon after, Feng Changshi reported from outside the car.

"Have the Qu family's arrangements been made?" Bei Yueyan asked in the carriage.

"Approximately, Ji Wu arranged for a doctor to check Mother Qu's pulse, and said that she needed a place to rest for two days."

two days?This pace is getting slower and slower.Bei Yueyan frowned and agreed.

A group of people broke camp and set off, hurriedly rushing, and finally arrived at the post station when the storm was approaching.The post station is a place for boarding and lodging for official personnel, and ordinary people are not allowed to stay in it.

Because Hou Ye and his daughter acted in a low-key manner, the journey was uneventful.

Now, those common people who were rubbing their cars wanted to find another inn nearby to rest, fearing that the Marquis's car would abandon him and wait for others, so before leaving, they tremblingly asked the entourage of the Hou Mansion about the departure date.

Naturally, this move was extremely inappropriate, the Qu family pointed out the driver of the Hou Mansion's car, and there was no guarantee that the rest of the journey would be safe and sound.

"No comment, everyone should find another team to go on the road together." The entourage of the Hou Mansion received the order early in the morning and said truthfully.

In recent years, the borders have been restless, and banditry has occurred frequently in various parts of the territory. It is inevitable for ordinary people to feel uneasy and cautious when traveling far away.

Several people did not dare to question, and left sadly.

This scene happened to be seen by the Qu family who came to pay their respects.The slightly older female relatives knew the benefits and were silent, but a girl with a cute double bun asked the entourage of the Hou Mansion in a childish voice:
"The world is difficult and dangerous, why not allow them to go together?"

"Lan'er, don't be rude!" A woman's face changed slightly, and then she apologized to her followers, "My lord, please don't blame her. She is the daughter of General Qu, and she was raised in her hometown since she was a child. Please report to her lord. One or two, the woman is the sister-in-law of General Qu, and she brought all the family members to greet Princess Houye."

Seeing her respectful and humble appearance, the girl turned her face away quite dissatisfied, and pouted her mouth.
