Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 116 Ducks
"what happened?"

In the swaying carriage, a girl's voice sounded.

Just as Li Ji and Zhao Guang were looking down at the former Qin princess's convoy, someone in the largest carriage in the convoy was also staring at the girl.

Gui Chen, who was looking upright at her, didn't expect Ying Baoyue to raise his head suddenly, and was taken aback, "No, it's nothing..."

Gui Li, who was sitting beside him, sighed silently.

Looking at the two siblings who were sitting on the opposite side, Ying Baoyue couldn't help but smile, "Don't be so cautious, you can still feel like you were at home in this carriage."

Like at home?

Gui Chen always feels that this is completely different from what he expected when he left home.

He originally thought that even if he could become her guard, he would be beaten severely by some guard leader. He even imagined the scene of himself being knocked over by a strong man in the muddy water.

However... the young man quietly glanced at the empty carriage, and the reflection of the soldiers on horseback reflected on the window of the carriage.

The captain next to her really wanted to hit him, but seeing him become a practitioner seemed to have an impact on the captain's mind, and the man was still in a daze when Ying Baoyue beckoned him to get into the car.

Then he and Gui Li were directly pulled into the carriage by Ying Baoyue, and the woman said to the captain outside as if nothing had happened.

"Lieutenant Lou, let's go as planned."

The man outside was silent for a while, and waved for the convoy to continue without asking any questions.

Where he and Gui Li didn't see, the woman in front of him seemed to be playing some kind of game with the captain.

Just when he was worried that he would be troubled, nothing happened, the guards outside and the girl in the carriage lived in peace, and he walked peacefully for a day like this.

Gui Chen looked at Ying Baoyue and glanced at the female official beside him who was hesitating to speak and stopped talking during the day, and said indifferently to him and Gui Li, "Miss Yao is one of my own, you can just call her Aunt Yao."

Ms. Yao, who was inexplicably a senior generation, was startled when she heard the words, and then she saw the princess beside her looking sideways at her, "My private conversation with these two children must not be spread outside, can you do this?"

Lady Yao's expression froze, and then she said seriously, "Your Highness, this is the duty of a servant."

Ying Baoyue looked at her and smiled, "I'm sorry, I doubted your integrity. In the future, when there are only four of us, we don't need to call ourselves slaves."

Officer Yao was taken aback, but saw the girl in front of her smiling and raised her hand, drawing a circle between the four of them in the carriage.

"Remember?"

Ms. Yao nodded in a daze.

Ying Baoyue put her hand on Lady Yao's shoulder, and looked at Guili, "Have you made up your mind about what you said before?"

Sitting next to his elder brother, Gui Li was startled, then nodded firmly, "Since elder brother wants to be your bodyguard, I will be your maid!"

Officer Yao looked at the little girl's attitude towards the princess as if she saw herself back then. Her eyes widened and she instinctively wanted to frown, but the princess's face was so close at hand, she had no choice but to maintain a decent smile.

The younger sister's attitude made Gui Chen seem to have returned to his small courtyard again. He sighed maturely and cast a sideways glance at his younger sister, "Princess Maid? Are you sure what you did?"

Gui Chen looked between Ying Baoyue and Gui Li, and sighed again, "Are you sure you are taking care of her or she is taking care of you?"

You must know that Mingyue cooked for her in her small courtyard back then...

Gui Li's face turned green, and he punched his elder brother on the shoulder, "Are you qualified to say that about me? It seems that you can be a guard! You can't even use a sword!"

The faces of the siblings turned green.

At this moment, the woman's laughter sounded in the carriage.

Gui Chen and Gui Li turned their heads together, looked at Ying Baoyue who put her hands on the shoulder of Miss Yao and smiled, and saw that the face of the lady in front of her was also a little green.

"Sorry...Your Highness...I'll let you go..."

The two quickly sat down.However, before they could utter the word "presumptuous", Ying Baoyue looked at them with a smile, "Well, it's fine to do this in private."

This is the youth.

What she thought she would lose when her identity was revealed, still exists.

"However, you still have to maintain a decent face in front of other people." Ying Baoyue looked at Ms. Yao, "It's going to be hard work for Aunt Yao. There are a lot of things you need to teach them."

Ms. Yao, who had a long way to go, nodded stiffly, but this was not over yet, Ying Baoyue took Guili's hand and put it in hers.

"Gui Li, since you want to be my maid, then this will be your future boss."

"Boss?" Gui Li was taken aback, only to see Ying Baoyue explain, "It's equivalent to a superior in the army, you have to listen to her carefully in the future, you know?"

Gui Li came to his senses and gave a serious salute to Ms. Yao, who was startled and returned the salute.

Looking at the younger sister who had been arranged, Gui Chen looked at Ying Baoyue, "Then...then my boss is..."

He looked at the tall figure riding a horse reflected by the car window, and when he was about to accept his fate, he heard Ying Baoyue say, "It might not be possible."

"It may be, but it may not be." Ying Baoyue looked at the young man in front of him and said.

For some reason, the girl in front of her spoke softly.

What does it mean?
Gui Chen was confused, and looked at Ying Baoyue, "Sure enough, I'm still not qualified to be a bodyguard...?"

He felt the weakness of his body. Although he felt the influx of power when he broke the boundary, but for some reason when the breakthrough ended, he only felt a breath rushing in his body, and he didn't even stand up for a while.

It was Ying Baoyue who pulled him into the carriage.

Feeling the disordered aura on the young man, Ying Baoyue smiled, "You couldn't stand up before because you were about to break through and haven't gotten used to using your inner energy. It will be fine after a while."

She looked at Gui Chen's expression, "You should be able to stand up now."

Gui Chen was shocked all over, and then tried to gather strength, and found that his originally disobedient limbs could really move.

"Well, it seems that it will take a month before it can be used normally, but the action should be fine."

"The guard..." Gui Chen was overjoyed, but he saw the woman in front of him reaching out to raise the curtain of the car, quietly staring at the twilight outside.

"It's time." He heard her say quietly.

"When is it?" Gui Chen asked in a daze.

Ying Baoyue turned her head to look at him, "I don't know how many people can stay, the chief guard by my side has not yet been decided, so you haven't been appointed yet."

What does it mean to not know how many people can stay?
Gui Chen thought in a daze, did he mean that there were still guards in Nanchu who wanted to go back?

"However, you have officially entered the probationary period as a guard." Ying Baoyue looked at him and said.

"Now give you the first task as a guard."

Gui Chen immediately sat up straight, pricked up his ears, and his heart beat faster for a moment.

However, just when he thought he would receive a solemn mission, he only heard the girl in front of him smiling.

"Let's have roast duck for dinner tonight."

What?
Gui Li, whose heartbeat was also speeding up, also widened his eyes.

"Along this road, there is a hunting trail 45 feet southeast, 45 feet northwest after entering, and there is a reed pond 75 feet southwest, where there are many wild ducks at dusk."

The girl in front of her looked at them and said seriously.

"Guichen, you take Gui Li and get out of the carriage now, and go there to catch a duck and come back."

Ying Baoyue looked at Gui Chen and said.

"If you don't catch it, don't come back."
