The rest of the Gu family felt like facing an enemy for Gu Yuan's trip across the country, 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 that outsiders can't see from his face. .

The room was in a mess, several bundles were spread out on the Arhat's bed, and the outer robe, coat, shoes and socks, gold silk armor, etc. were packed in disorder.

"I'll see you off tomorrow morning." Gu Yanfei leaned lazily by the window, playing with a pair of ten-inch long and short Emei thorns.

The Emei thorn made of fine steel is sharp at both ends, shaped like a spear head, with a ring in the middle.

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

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

Gu Yanfei turned the pair of Emei thorns around twice, and with a light shake of her 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 craftsmen to call this pair of Emei thorns for him to play with. He came to show it off to Gu Yuan yesterday. Gu Yuan felt that the Emei thorns were small and suitable for women, so he insisted on spending money to buy them.

Gu Yanfei nodded and smiled brightly: "I like it!"

"Jiaoniang will definitely like it too, I'll take it for her to play with next time."

With a slight lift of her right wrist, an Emei thorn appeared in her hand again.

The silver light pierced by Emei was reflected on her face and eyes, making her dark pupils particularly bright and sparkling with autumn water.

Young girls don't need makeup, powder and jewelry, just show their faces and 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.

Young masters from other families always give cloths, jewelry, piano and chess to their younger sisters, but their young masters are different!

But the second girl still likes the gift from the eldest young master, this is really a direct sibling! As expected of the blood of the Gu family!

And Juan Bi, who was serving tea, water and snacks to the brother and sister, has long been familiar with it.

The girl had so many weapons that she could build a weapon room. There were daggers and muskets given by the eldest prince, whips given by Princess Fengyang, horn bows, long swords, and red-tasseled spears given by the young master...

Girls from other families play piano, chess, calligraphers and painters, while their own girls play talisman paper, compasses, turtle shells, pills, silver needles, weapons and so on.

The young master and the eldest prince are all spoiled by girls.

Juanbi smiled happily, quite a bit proudly.

"That's right." Gu Yanfei clapped her palms with a smile, "Jiaoniang just sent a pair of bear paws over this morning, saying that her third brother hunted two black bears in the mountains this time. I have ordered the kitchen to make honey steamed bear paws." , I haven’t eaten a bear’s paw yet.”

"Brother, you can go after dinner."

"En." Gu Yuan responded softly.

He likes to listen to his sister's family talk, and the smile on his brows has become more intense. He has already thought about it in his heart, and when he comes back, he will also go into the mountains to hunt for his sister's head bear.

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 Tomb?"

Gu Yanfei nodded, her long eyelashes flickering.

Gu Yuan frowned slightly, his thin lips were pursed into a straight line, and his face showed worry.

When he wasn't smiling, his face looked a bit stern.

He seemed to hesitate to speak, but he didn't stop him after all.

Gu Yanfei said in a brisk tone: "Princess Fengyang will also go, and I will follow her."

Outsiders don't know, but Gu Yanfei knows it all too well, Fengyang's body is getting worse day by day...

Wutong skillfully prepared the luggage that should be brought, and after checking it again, he tied up the bag, "Master, everything is packed, do you want to look at it again?"

Gu Yuan dismissed Wu Tong casually, and was about to tell Gu Yanfei a few words, when she heard her say first: "Brother, there is still one thing missing from your baggage."

Meeting his younger sister's playful and wise eyes, Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked cooperatively, "What's missing?"

Gu Yanfei fumbled in his cuffs, this time, what he took out was not an Emei thorn, but a sapphire blue purse.

"This." Gu Yanfei stuffed the purse into Gu Yuan's hand, "Here are some commonly used pills, ointments and so on. I wrote down the uses of these medicines on a piece of paper inside."

"It's all the medicine I made by myself, and it works very well!"

"Brother, you must keep it close to your body."

Gu Yanfei reminded carefully, there was a bit of complacency on her fair little face, and her eyes were shining brightly.

Gu Yuan lowered his eyes to look at the purse in his palm, his heart seemed to be gently scratched by a feather, filled with a warm emotion, his eyes could not stop smiling.

He closed his fingers and held the purse in the palm of his hand, with the eccentric pleasure in his brows.

As expected, the younger sister is still the closest to his big brother, he has it, but the eldest prince doesn't!

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. You wait for me obediently in the capital."

"Yeah." Gu Yanfei responded with a smile.

How well-behaved, how well-behaved.

The siblings ate dinner together, after which Gu Yuan left and rushed into the palace before the curfew.

Originally, Gu Yuan was very busy on duty at the Jinwu Guard, and today he packed his luggage and went home to bid farewell to his sister. Tonight he will live in the squadron in the palace.

The capital city seemed to be surprisingly quiet that night, with the wind and the sea calm.

In the early morning of the next day, the First Prince's guard of honor left Beijing in a grandiose manner together with the envoys from the Yue Kingdom.

It is related to the marriage between the two countries. Chu Yi brought a dowry gift of more than a dozen carriages on this trip, and went south to Yue to propose marriage to Emperor Ximing. , furniture and utensils, etc., and hundreds of good horses, it seems very powerful.

Gu Yanfei found a restaurant near the south city gate to see Chu Yi and Gu Yuan off. Apart from her, many people also came to see off near the city gate after hearing the news that the eldest prince was leaving for Yue.

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

During this period of time, the busiest people in the capital were probably the officials of the Ministry of Rites. They had just sent off the First Prince and the others, and then the Ministry of Rituals prepared matters for offering sacrifices to the imperial mausoleum.

Time is really tight, and the etiquette department is very busy.

Because Gu Yanfei would also accompany Fengyang to the trip, the Ministry of Rites made a special trip to send Yicheng to her for a look.

On April 15th, Gu Yanfei arrived at the Princess Mansion in Fengyang at dawn, and the concierge let her in without reporting.

"Second Miss Gu, Your Highness is still awake, I will take the girl to His Highness's room." Feng Yang's confidant Ruosu came to meet Gu Yanfei in person and led her towards the main courtyard.

In the past half a month, Gu Yanfei has been a frequent visitor to the Princess Mansion, and she is already familiar with this place, coming and going freely, there is no place she can't go.

Everyone in the princess mansion is very polite to Gu Yanfei, even respectful.

Ruo Su is a martial artist, compared to the other women, he has a more sassy and heroic spirit all over his body, when he walks, his steps are light and steady.

Seeing that there was no one around, Ruosu lowered her voice and said to Gu Yanfei: "Miss Gu, Your Highness didn't sleep well last night. I lighted the soothing incense for her before falling asleep. I think it's still early, so I didn't dare to sleep." Go wake up Your Highness."

Ruosu frowned deeply, unable to hide her worry for Fengyang.

Without saying a word, Gu Yanfei followed Ruosu through various doors, all the way to the inner room of the main courtyard.

There was a faint smell of soothing incense in the room.

Going around a red sandalwood five-panel screen, Gu Yanfei saw Fengyang lying quietly on the canopy bed.

Covered with a thin dark red quilt, Feng Yang closed his eyes tightly, and his face was a little pale in the dim bed curtain. Even if Gu Yanfei approached, Feng Yang didn't move, and was still in a deep sleep.

"Your Highness, Your Highness..."

Gu Yanfei called softly twice, and the sleeping Fengyang moved his eyelids a few times, and then slowly opened his eyes. The cloudy eyes were a little chaotic, but soon became sharp again.

She looked even thinner than usual when lying down.

"Yan Fei." Feng Yang called out in a low voice, his voice was a little hoarse and powerless after waking up, and his brows frowned slightly.

Even without testing Fengyang's pulse, Gu Yanfei could still find that Fengyang's vitality was rapidly draining within a few days...

Fengyang's phoenix body is getting worse day by day, and the sun is setting. A few days ago, when Gu Yanfei came to see her at the princess mansion, she could sit and stand, talk and laugh, like a normal person.

But now, she has...

Gu Yanfei's half-down eyes were as deep as a well.

Ruosu at the back also looked at Fengyang, her heart ached.

They all knew that Fengyang was ill, and the illness was raging, like a dam collapsing.

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

Ruosu tightly pursed her lips, forcibly restraining the sadness and powerlessness in her heart, seeing Fengyang trying to stand up on her elbows, Ruosu hurriedly took a step forward, wanting to step forward to support her.

"Don't get up." Gu Yanfei quickly pressed Feng Yang back, "I'll give you the needle first."

So, Fengyang stopped moving.

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

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

The silver needles and the white fungus on Gu Yanfei's earlobe shone brightly in the candlelight.

Gu Yanfei deftly began to inject Fengyang with his right hand, brushing Fengyang's face with his right hand, and the first silver needle had already landed in the middle of the person...

She took out the needle, burned the needle, and inserted the needle quickly and accurately. She didn't seem to notice much, but the position of the needle was exactly the same.

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

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

Still no more, no less seven needles, sealing Fengyang's seven orifices.

Ruosu counted silently in her heart, and when she counted to twenty-one, she saw that Fengyang's pale face gradually turned red again, as if time had turned back, and the dying flowers regained their vitality little by little .

After Gu Yanfei received the needle, Feng Yang lifted the quilt and got up from the bed. Ruosu and the palace maid hurriedly helped her get dressed, combed her hair and put on makeup.

They are used to doing this on weekdays, the movements are extremely fast, and even Fengyang's hair is combed in a short time, with a dignified and simple hairstyle.

Gu Yanfei didn't avoid it either, just sat and watched, pointed to an emerald phoenix hairpin in the box and said, "Your Highness, wear the hairpin I gave you today."

Some time ago, Gu Yanfei became obsessed with carving. Not only did he engrave a jade hairpin, a small seal, and a jade ring finger for Chu Yi, but he also carved some trinkets for Gu Yuan and Feng Yang.

What she gave to Fengyang was this emerald phoenix hairpin. From material selection, drawing to carving, she did it all by herself, and the hairpin was even engraved with a magic circle.

The palace lady took out the jade hairpin from the box and put it on Fengyang's hairpin. Gu Yanfei smiled and held the mercury mirror and showed it to Fengyang.

"Does it look good?" Gu Yanfei said triumphantly.

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

Her originally icy cheeks and fingertips had a little warmth at this moment, and she seemed to be no different from a normal person, and she was even more different from the haggard appearance when she was asleep just now.

"You have good vision and good craftsmanship." Feng Yang raised his head and smiled at Gu Yanfei.

Gu Yanfei was pleased, and smiled happily, and felt that his vision was first-rate, "My vision is really good!"

Whether looking at things or people.

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

At this time, Ruosu, who had just gone out for a while, came back again, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, breakfast is here, do you want to serve it?"

Feng Yang actually had a bad appetite, so he turned to Gu Yanfei and asked, "You came so early, did you have breakfast?"

Gu Yanfei chuckled: "Your Highness really understands me, I came here specially to enjoy the breakfast cooked by Chef Zhang Yu."

The chef in charge of the kitchen in the Princess Mansion is the imperial chef bestowed by the emperor on Fengyang. One is good at dishes and the other is good at dim sum. Gu Yanfei especially likes the dim sum made by Chef Zhang, so he often comes to the Princess Mansion to eat dim sum.

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

It’s not yet Chen’s time, but the sun is already rising outside, the air in the morning is exceptionally fresh, and the chirping of sparrows comes with the wind from time to time.

After breakfast, the two went out immediately, and Gu Yanfei rubbed against Fengyang's Zhulun car, and the two took the car to the front of Chengtian Gate first.

Because the emperor was going to the imperial mausoleum to offer sacrifices to his ancestors today, the chariots and horses of the accompanying officials were all waiting in the square in front of the palace gate.

Seeing the Zhu Lun chariot from Fengyang approaching, the imperial guards at the gate of the palace stepped forward to maintain order, and the officials' chariots and horses gave way to both sides one after another.

Outside the carriage, a servant shouted in a drawn-out tone: "His Royal Highness Princess Fengyang is here!"

Fengyang took Ruosu's men and got off the Zhu Lun cart.

Under the brilliance of the rising sun, the figure of the nearly seventy-year-old woman is as tall and straight as a pine cypress. Although she is old, her eyes are wise and sharp. When people look at her, they can't help but ignore the wrinkles on her face, and only pay attention to those extremely bright and terrifying eyes. His eyes, and that imposing manner without anger.

When her gaze swept the surroundings lightly, she had the majesty of a king, as if looking down on the ministers from the clouds, majestic as before.

"See Her Royal Highness Princess Fengyang."

All the ministers could not help but bow their heads submissively, bowing and saluting, with different thoughts.

Since Fengyang submitted a letter to the emperor last month to ask the eldest prince to be the crown prince, many people have linked Li Chu with Fengyang's serious illness in the palace before, wondering whether Fengyang's life is not long , I want to help the emperor establish a crown prince while he is alive.

But now seeing Fengyang's hale and hearty look, everyone was relieved.
