Chapter 347 set off

   The rest of the Gu family were facing great enemies for Gu Yuan’s trip to Vietnam, but Gu Yuan himself was quite relaxed, talking and laughing freely.

“Sister, I will leave Beijing with the eldest prince tomorrow morning. Don’t worry, I will be careful.” Gu Yuan raised his hand and rubbed the top of Gu Yanfei’s soft hair, with a soft smile on his face that outsiders usually wouldn’t see on his face. .

  The house was in a mess, and several bundles were spread out on the Arhat bed. The outer robes, middle clothes, shoes and socks, gold silk armor, etc. were all packed.

   “I’ll see you off tomorrow morning.” Gu Yanfei leaned lazily by the window, playing with a pair of ten-inch Emei thorns in his hands.

  The Emei thorn made of stainless steel has sharp ends, shaped like a gun head, and a ring in the middle.

   She put the ring on the middle fingers of both hands, and her fingers flexibly turned the small Emei thorn, shining with cold light.

   This was just given to her by Gu Yuan today. She was fresh, playing with great interest, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.

  Gu Yanfei turned the pair of Emei thorns twice again, and with a flick of his hand, the Emei thorns were hidden in her wide sleeves and disappeared as if by magic.

   “Do you like it?” Gu Yuan asked Gu Yanfei with a smile.

   Fan Beiran asked the craftsman to call him to play with this pair of Emei thorns. He came to show it off to Gu Yuan yesterday. Gu Yuan felt that these Emei thorns were small and suitable for women, so he just bought them for money.

  Gu Yanfei nodded and smiled: “I like it!”

   “Jiao Niang must like it too, I’ll give it to her next time.”

   She lifted her right wrist slightly, and an Emei thorn appeared in her hand again.

  The silver light of the Emei thorns reflected on her face and eyes, making her dark pupils especially bright, and the autumn water was glistening.

  Youth girls don’t need to put on powder jewelry, just smile, like thousands of trees and flowers blooming.

  Gu Yuan’s long and narrow phoenix eyes slightly curved. He knew his sister would like it!

   Wutong was packing Gu Yuan’s luggage, but his expression was indescribable.

  The young masters of other families always give the younger sisters cloth, jewelry, piano and chess, but their eldest young master is different!

   But the second girl actually likes the gift from the eldest young master, this is really the brother and sister of the first cousin! It is indeed the blood of the Gu family!

   On the other hand, Juan Bi, who was serving tea and water to the brother and sister, was not surprised for a long time.

  The girl has so many weapons that she could fit in a weapon room, including the short sword and musket from the eldest prince, the whip from the eldest princess of Fengyang, the horn bow, the long sword, and the red spear from the eldest young master…

   The girls from other families are playing with chess, calligraphy and painting, and the girls are playing with paper, compass, tortoise shell, medicinal pills, silver needles and weapons.

   The eldest young master and the eldest prince are used to girls.

   Kuanbi smiled happily, quite a bit of joy.

“That’s right.” Gu Yanfei stroked his palms with a smile, “Jiao Niang just brought a pair of bear paws over this morning, saying that her third brother has rarely hunted two black bears in the mountains this time. I have already ordered the kitchen to bake them into honey-steamed bear paws. , I haven’t eaten bear paw yet.”

   “Brother, after you have eaten dinner, let’s go.”

   “Yes.” Gu Yuan replied softly.

   He likes to hear his sister talk about everyday life, and the smile between his eyebrows is three-pointed. He has already pondered in his heart that when he returns, he will also go into the mountains to hunt head bears for his sister.

  Wait for him to come back…

   A sharp light flashed across Gu Yuan’s eyes, and the conversation changed: “Yan Fei, are you really going to the imperial mausoleum?”

  Gu Yanfei nodded, her long eyelashes flickering.

  Gu Yuan frowned slightly, his thin lips pursed into a straight line, and a worried look appeared on his face.

   When he wasn’t smiling, his face looked a little grim.

   He seemed to be hesitating to speak, but he didn’t stop him after all.

   Gu Yanfei said in a brisk tone, “Fengyang Eldest Princess will also go, I will follow her.”

   Outsiders don’t know, but Gu Yanfei knows very well that Fengyang’s body is getting worse every day…

   Wutong skillfully prepared the luggage to bring, and after checking it again, he **** the luggage, “Master, everything is packed, do you want to take a look again?”

  Gu Yuan sent Wutong at will, and was about to tell Gu Yanfei a few words when she heard her say: “Brother, there is something missing from your baggage.”

   Greeting his younger sister’s playful eyes, Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly and asked cooperatively, “What’s missing?”

  Gu Yan flew to the cuff and took it out. This time, it was not an Emei thorn, but a sapphire blue purse.

   “This.” Gu Yanfei put the purse into Gu Yuan’s hand, “There are some commonly used pills, ointments, etc. in it. I wrote the uses of these medicines on a piece of paper inside.”

   “It’s all medicine made by me, and it works very well!”

   “Brother, you must keep it close to your body.”

   Gu Yanfei warned carefully, there was a bit of complacentness on her small white face, and her eyes were shining brightly.

  Gu Yuan looked down at the purse in the palm of his hand, his heart seemed to be lightly scratched by a feather, filled with a warm emotion, his eyes couldn’t stop smiling.

   He folded his fingers, grabbed the purse in the palm of his hand, and his eyes showed the kind of eccentric joy.

   The younger sister is still the closest to his eldest brother, he has it, but the eldest prince does not!

  Gu Yuan rubbed the top of Gu Yanfei’s hair again, and said meaningfully, “When I come back, I will bring you a big gift, and you will wait for me in the capital.”

   “Yes.” Gu Yanfei replied with a smile.

   How well-behaved, how well-behaved.

   The two brothers and sisters had dinner together. After that, Gu Yuan left and hurried into the palace before the curfew.

   Originally, Gu Yuan was very busy when he was on duty in Jinwuwei. Today, he packed up his luggage and returned to the house to say goodbye to his sister. Tonight, he will live in the shift room in the palace.

   The capital city seemed surprisingly quiet that night.

   In the early morning of the next day, the guard of honor of the eldest prince went out of Beijing with the envoys of the Yue Kingdom.

It is related to the marriage between the two countries. Chu Yi brought a dozen carriages of betrothal gifts on this trip, and went south to the Yue Kingdom to propose marriage to Emperor Ximing. This betrothal gift is quite rich, not only gold and silver jewelry, antique calligraphy and painting, silk and cloth. , furniture and utensils, etc., as well as hundreds of horses, appear to be huge.

  Gu Yanfei found a restaurant near the South City Gate to see Chu Yi and Gu Yuan off. Besides her, there were many people who heard the news that the eldest prince was leaving for Yue Kingdom today, and came to see them off near the city gate.

  The area around the city gate was extremely lively, and it took a long time for the crowd to disperse.

   During this time, the busiest people in the capital were probably officials of the Ministry of Rites. They had just sent off the eldest prince and the others, and then the Ministry of Rites prepared the matters of the imperial mausoleum.

  The time is really tight, and the Ministry of Rites is busy.

  Because Gu Yanfei would also accompany Fengyang to go there, the Ministry of Rites also made a special trip to show her the ceremony.

   On April 15th, Gu Yanfei arrived at the Princess Mansion in Fengyang just before dawn. The concierge put her in the door without any notification.

   “Second Lady Gu, Your Highness is still awake, let me lead the girl to His Highness’s room.” Fengyang’s confidant Ruosu personally came to greet Gu Yanfei and led her towards the main courtyard.

   In the past two weeks, Gu Yanfei has been a frequent visitor to the Princess Mansion.

   The princess’ mansion was very polite and even respectful to Gu Yanfei.

   Ruosu is a martial arts practitioner. Compared with the woman next to him, he has a more sassy and neat heroic spirit around him. When walking, his steps are light and steady.

Seeing that there was no one around, Ruo Su lowered her voice and said to Gu Yanfei: “Second Lady Gu, Your Highness didn’t sleep well last night. I ordered her a soothing incense before falling asleep. I think it’s still early, so I don’t dare to sleep. Go and wake up Your Highness.”

   Ruosu frowned deeply, unable to hide her worries about Fengyang.

  Gu Yanfei did not say a word, and followed Ruo Su through various doors, all the way to the inner room of the main courtyard.

   The room was filled with a faint scent of calming incense.

   bypassing a red sandalwood screen with five fans, Gu Yanfei saw Fengyang lying quietly on the canopy bed.

  Feng Yang, who was covered with a thin dark red quilt, closed his eyes tightly. In the dim bed tent, his face was a little pale. Even if Gu Yanfei approached, Feng Yang did not move, and was still in a deep sleep.

   “Your Highness, Your Highness…”

   Gu Yanfei called out twice, and the sleeping Fengyang’s eyelids moved a few times before slowly opening his eyes. The cloudy eyes were a little chaotic, but they soon became sharp again.

   When lying down, she looked thinner than usual.

   “Yan Fei.” Fengyang called out in a low voice, his voice was a little hoarse and weak, and his eyebrows were slightly frowned.

   Even if he didn’t detect Fengyang’s pulse, Gu Yanfei could see with the naked eye that Fengyang’s vitality was rapidly draining within a few days…

  Fengyang’s phoenix body is not as good as the other day, the sun goes down, when Gu Yan came to see her at the Princess Mansion a few days ago, she could sit, stand, talk and laugh, just like a normal person.

  But now, she has…

   Gu Yanfei’s half-drooping eyes were as deep as wells.

   Ruosu in the back also looked at Fengyang, and his heart ached.

   They all knew that Fengyang was ill, and the disease was so violent that it was like the collapse of a dam.

   Fengyang has always been very calm, saying that she has no regrets in her life, and she has no fear of death;

   Ruosu pursed her lips tightly, forcibly restraining the grief and weakness in her heart. Seeing Fengyang trying to stand up with her elbows, Ruosu hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to step forward to help.

   “Don’t get up.” Gu Yanfei quickly pressed Fengyang back, “I’ll give you a needle first.”

   So, Fengyang stopped moving.

  The maid quickly prepared candles for burning needles, unfolded the needle bag, and came over to help Gu Yanfei.

  As the candles were lit, the dark interior room became much brighter.

   The silver needles and the silver ear lobes on Gu Yanfei’s earlobes shone in the candlelight.

  Gu Yanfei started to apply needles to Fengyang skillfully, his right hand swept across Fengyang’s face, the first silver needle had already landed among the people…

   She took out the needle, burned the needle, and put the needle down quickly and accurately.

   A series of movements are as smooth as running clouds and water, without the slightest pause.

   Ruo Su has seen it many times with his own eyes, but every time he is still amazed.

   is still no more or no less seven needles, sealing the seven orifices of Fengyang.

Ruo Su counted silently in her heart, and when she counted to twenty-one, she saw that Feng Yang’s pale face gradually turned bloody, as if time had turned back, and the dying flowers had regained their vitality little by little. .

   After Gu Yanfei put away the needles, Feng Yang was lifted from the bed, Ruo Su and the maid hurriedly served her with dressing, combed her hair and put on makeup.

   They are used to doing this on weekdays. The movements are very fast, just a stick of incense, and even Fengyang’s hair is combed, and the hairstyle is dignified and simple.

  Gu Yanfei didn’t avoid it, he just sat by the side and watched, pointing to a jade phoenix hairpin in the box and said, “I’ll wear this hairpin that I gave to His Highness today.”

   Gu Yanfei became fascinated with carving some time ago. Not only did he engrave jade hairpins, small seals and jade fingers for Chu Yi, but he also carved some gadgets for Gu Yuan and Feng Yang.

   She gave Fengyang this jadeite phoenix hairpin. From material selection, drawing to carving, she did it herself. The hairpin was also engraved with a magic circle.

  The maid took out the jade hairpin from the box and put it on Fengyang’s hairpin. Gu Yanfei smiled and brought the mercury mirror and showed it to Fengyang.

   “Is it good-looking?” Gu Yanfei said triumphantly.

  Fengyang looked at the familiar face in the mirror, raised his hand to support the jade hairpin, and stroked his cheek.

   Her icy cheeks and fingertips now had a little warmth again, and they seemed to be no different from normal people, and even more completely different from the haggard look when she was sleeping.

   “You have good eyesight and good craftsmanship.” Feng Yang looked up at Gu Yanfei and smiled.

  Gu Yanfei was delighted and laughed uncontrollably, feeling that his vision was first-rate, “My vision is really good!”

   Whether it is looking at things or people.

  Thinking of someone who was not in the capital at this time, her smile was a little more bright and charming, and even her cheeks were stained with rays of sunshine, and in the candlelight, she looked even more like a beautiful jade.

   At this time, Ruo Su, who had just been out for a while, came back and said with a smile, “Your Highness, breakfast is here, do you want to set it up?”

  Fengyang actually had a bad appetite, so he turned to ask Gu Yanfei, “You came so early, did you have breakfast?”

  Gu Yanfei laughed: “His Royal Highness really knows me, I’m here to eat breakfast made by Chef Zhang Yu.”

   The chef in charge of the kitchen of the Princess Mansion is the royal chef given to Fengyang by the emperor. One is good at cooking and the other is good at dim sum. The dim sum made by Zhang Yuche is very delicious. After Gu Yanfei has eaten it once, he often comes to the Princess Mansion to eat dim sum.

   Now, Ruosu also knew Fengyang’s answer, and hurriedly asked people to set up a meal.

   It is not even 12 hours, the sun is rising outside, the air in the morning is exceptionally fresh, and the sound of chirping sparrows comes from time to time in the wind.

  After having breakfast, the two went out immediately, Gu Yanfei rubbed Fengyang’s Zhulun car again, and the two took the car to Chengtianmen first.

  Because the emperor is going to the imperial mausoleum to worship his ancestors today, the carriages and horses of the officials accompanying today are also waiting in the square in front of the palace gate.

   Seeing Fengyang’s Zhu Lun chariot approaching, the imperial guards at the gate of the palace stepped forward to maintain order, and the chariots and horses of those officials evaded to both sides one after another.

   Outside the carriage, a chamberlain shouted in a long tone: “His Royal Highness Princess Fengyang is here!”

  Fengyang got off the Zhulun Cha with Ruosu’s men.

Under the brilliance of the rising sun, the young woman was as tall and straight as a pine and cypress. Although she was old, her eyes were wise and sharp, which made people look at her, involuntarily ignoring the wrinkles on her face. His eyes, and the aura that was not angry and mighty.

   When her eyes swept lightly around her, she had the majesty of a king, as if looking down at the ministers from the clouds, as majestic as before.

   “See Her Royal Highness Princess Fengyang.”

  The ministers could not help but bow their heads and bow their heads in convincing, with different thoughts.

Since Fengyang became the emperor last month and asked the eldest prince to be the crown prince, many people have linked the Li Chu and Fengyang’s previous serious illness in the palace, and wondered if Fengyang was dying soon. , I want to help the emperor to establish a heir when he is alive.

  But looking at Fengyang’s spirited appearance now, everyone is relieved.

  .
