Jade color and fragrance

Chapter 154 Gu Chen Returns
When Yan Yu woke up, she hugged the quilt and smiled softly, she rolled on the bed contentedly, when Shan Qing heard voices coming in to serve her.

"Girl, Your Highness has been gone for an hour. I will see Fourth Highness soon."

Xuan Yue got up so early?He didn't sleep long last night, really, since he had to hurry, why bother to work so hard.

Yan Yu blushed, lowered her head and put on her clothes.

"Have you had breakfast, Your Highness?"

"I used two bowls of braised noodles, which were made by my cousin, and I brought some dry food over there."

"Speaking of braised noodles, I want to eat them too." Yan Yu speeded up, tidied herself up, and wanted to go out.

Bai Zhen came in with a large bowl of braised noodles on a tray, along with a few side dishes.

"I knew you were craving this too, so I prepared it for you. Eat it while it's hot, my cousin's craftsmanship is really good."

"Thank you, cousin. I owe it to His Royal Highness the Fourth Highness. Cousin has prepared a lot of delicious food?"

"You just know how to tease me. When you finish eating, I'll take you to cook, okay?"

"Okay, cousin, can you teach me garlic pork ribs? Last time I ate it in Baifu, I can't forget it. The chefs in the county lord's mansion Prince Gong's mansion have different cooking skills, and they can't cook that taste."

"What's the difficulty? It happens that the meat and vegetables are all prepared. Go and help me, and my sister will teach you."

After all, meat and vegetables are indecent, so why bother to chop them up, someone has already chopped them up, and put two big bowls neatly.

"Cousin, are you afraid of the smell of garlic, do you want to peel it yourself?"

Under Bai Zhen's instruction, Yan Yu peeled off several bulbs of garlic, crushed them one by one, removed the garlic, put them in a bowl, washed the spare ribs, poured garlic paste and other seasonings, and wrapped the spare ribs with garlic paste , let stand to pickle.

Touching the pork bone for the first time, Yan Yu felt a little nervous, but when she thought of cooking by herself, Xuan Yue would be able to eat more deliciously, so she endured it.

Shan Qing estimated that the two Highnesses would be back at the beginning of the year, the two girls had their own lunch, and Yan Yu went to Baizhen's room to have a lunch together.

...

Xuan Yue ran forward with his men and horses. He and his fourth brother grew up together. Even when he grew up, he sometimes went out to travel, and his fourth brother also went out on business, but they had never been separated for such a long time.

After running for nearly two hours, the males were also tired, so they stopped and refreshed a bit.

"Your Highness, look quickly! Over there, that is the Fourth Highness is back!"

Xuan Yue was so excited that he immediately stood up and stepped on the steed again. The person who came was the fourth brother, wasn't he?

"Drive! Drive! Drive! Huh!" The two teams finally faced each other, and the fourth brother seemed to be fine, which is great.

"Third Brother, Third Brother!" Gu Chen kept calling Third Brother, jumped off the steed, and rushed to Xuan Yue's horse.Xuan Yue also jumped on the horse immediately. He supported Gu Chen's shoulders and looked at his fourth brother carefully until he confirmed that he came back safe and sound, his eyes were full of joy.

Gu Chen hugged Xuan Yue, his eyes were red.

"Third brother, third brother, I... I'm back."

Xuan Yue patted Gu Chen's shoulder and said, "Fourth brother, you did a good job! I'm proud of you for coming back safe and sound. The emperor's grandmother and uncle are looking forward to seeing you soon."

Gu Chen let go of the hug, a little embarrassed, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said, "Third brother, I haven't congratulated you on your wedding yet. I wish you and the third sister-in-law a happy marriage for a hundred years, and the music will be harmonious!"

"Okay, let's talk while walking! You are tired too, let's go back to the station and have a good rest for a day."

The two got on their horses respectively, Xuan Yue looked back at the men and horses he brought, and asked, "Did Bai Qin not come back?"

"Third Brother, Bai Qin is really admirable. He is courageous and resourceful, and has a firm mind. However, he has not come back. He said that he didn't want to appear different, and he would not return to Beijing together until the army returned."

"I heard that Ban Gong's whereabouts are unknown, is there any progress in the future?"

"He has not been found in Sri Lanka. I suspect that he may have fled to other countries, even our Dazhan."

"Oh? Then you didn't meet him on this journey, did you?"

"No, I think so, so as not to cause future trouble."

The two chatted a lot about Islam.Afterwards, Gu Chen asked: "Third Brother, Miss Bai, how are you doing these days?"

Xuan Yue didn't tell him that he would see Miss Bai later, but only said: "She's doing well, she's taking care of the Girls' Hall every day, just waiting for you to come back!"

Gu Chen's eyes were red again, and he left without saying goodbye. Although there were occasional correspondences in the past few months, but only a few words, there is no way to explain the lovesickness.

"Your third sister-in-law is waiting for us! Why don't we have a match?"

"Third brother, then I may let you go! After several months of border drills, my riding skills are getting better and better, and third brother may not be able to catch up with me!"

"Good ambition! Dare to challenge the third brother. The third brother has not been idle for the past few months. Just try it and you will know."

"Hahaha! I just look forward to the day when I can race horses with my third brother. Today we have a good competition."

A man's horse race is completely different from a horse race between Xuanyue and Yanyu. The two distanced themselves and kept flying their hooves.

The two of you chased each other and ran smoothly, but they were on par.

"Third brother! My younger brother is willing to bow down. I practice every day, but I can only keep pace with you."

"Don't let the water go. Can the third brother not tell what level you are now?"

"Hahaha!" The two brothers chased after each other, so happy!

"Fourth brother, I feel relieved when you come back."

"Third brother Lao is worried. It's the fourth brother's fault. I will definitely confuse you in the future..."

"What nonsense...Why do you and my brother say such things?"

The two ran horses all the way, talking and laughing all the way, Gu Chen felt that he hadn't had such a good time in a long time, and even forgot the exhaustion of rushing all the way back to Beijing.

At the beginning of Youshi, the post station was close at hand, and a guard went to report.When Xuan Yue and Gu Chen arrived at the gate of the post station, Yan Yu had already led the servants to greet him at the gate.Seeing that Gu Chen came back with full beard, still handsome and handsome, with a little red skin, he must have suffered a lot on the road.

"Fourth brother, you are back!"

"Sister-in-law three, fourth brother pays respects to sister-in-law three!"

Gu Chen got off his horse and came to Yan Yu, knelt down on one leg, bowed and bowed.

Yan Yu hurriedly helped him up, and looked at him closely, he was indeed fine.Now Xuan Yue can sleep peacefully.The emperor's grandmother, emperor's uncle, and mother and concubine can also calm down.

"There's no need to be extra polite. The conditions of the inn are limited, but the food and drinks are still prepared. Tonight, you and Xuan Yue will not return home without getting drunk."

"Okay, thank you, sister-in-law three!"

Xuan Yue came over and looked around, but he didn't see Bai Zhen. He looked at Yan Yu, only to see Yan Yu shaking his head at him without a trace.

Ban Yue and his wife, is there such a tacit understanding?Two ghosts are clever, one doesn't mention it by mistake, and the other hides the person, just to give Gu Chen a surprise?
"Fourth brother, let's go in! It's cold outside, don't freeze your third sister-in-law!"

"it is good!"

"How can I be so delicate. The banquet is prepared in our house, and the banquet for the soldiers is in the yard. Come in quickly."

　Well, Gu Chen is finally back
