famous eldest daughter

Chapter 776 Doubt
When she suppressed her shock and shyness, and finally plucked up the courage to look up at the man who made her blush, her heart flutter with love, she looked down and saw Xiao Yu holding a flower in his hand that she originally wore on her head. The camellia flowers in his eyes were shining like diamonds, and he looked at her with a smile.

"This one doesn't look good. Wait until I come back and buy you a good one." As he spoke, Xiao Yu hid Gu Yuqing's beaded flower in his arms, then pinched Gu Yuqing's hot face again, "Wait for me."

These two words, accompanied by the scalding temperature, climbed into Gu Yuqing's heart, shyness and sweetness surged, and she couldn't help it. Gu Yuqing, with two red faces on her face, lowered her head and lowered her eyes, letting Xiao Yu's warm fingers pinch her cheeks Go up and murmur, "Okay."

A string of pink flowers bloomed in the heart, and the petals were flying.

Just now she was too embarrassed to raise her head, but when she finished speaking, Xiao Yu said, "I'll go back to the team first, and you wait for me obediently." His warm fingers left her cheek, and Gu Yuqing's sweet heart suddenly stopped. , couldn't wait, raised his eyes and chased Xiao Yu's figure.

When her eyes fell on Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu was already sitting firmly on the horse. Only then did Gu Yuqing see that diagonally behind Xiao Yu, followed closely by Dong Ce, who was looking up in her direction. , eyes flashing, with a sly smile.

Subconsciously, Gu Yuqing couldn't help but duck and shrink back.

After taking a breath, she looked out again and saw that Xiao Yu and Dong Ce had already walked out of the city gate.

The generals were separated, and even Xiao Yu's figure was still in her sight, but Gu Yuqing felt that longing for her had already become a disaster.

Before Xiao Yu left the confines of Kyoto, she began to look forward to his quick return.

Standing leaning on the railing, staring blankly at the large army retreating away, he concentrated for a long time, and suddenly realized his thoughts. Gu Yuqing immediately raised his hand to caress his hot cheeks, his eyes were shy and thick and sticky.

Ji Xiang smiled mischievously, "Miss, no one can see you anymore, go back."

After being called by Jixiang, Gu Yuqing's thoughts slightly changed, her emotions gradually faded away, and her ears were filled with the noisy sounds coming from outside Lijing Pavilion.

The army set out to suppress the riots and quell the public grievances, and many military family members came to the North City Gate to say goodbye.

Just now, all his attention was focused on Xiao Yu. Gu Yuqing did not pay attention to the people outside Lijing Pavilion. At this moment, his mind was restrained. The words of the two women downstairs fell into Gu Yuqing's ears word for word.

"Aunt Zhang, your son is also going to Shaanxi this time?"

"No, God damn it, why is the emperor so closed-eyed? It's not good to choose anyone, but I chose the fourth prince who knows how to eat, drink and have fun. Look, my eyes are swollen from crying."

"Hey! No, that fourth prince, apart from walking birds and hunting rabbits, what else can he do? Look at just now, when the army is leaving the city, he still has the thought to fly around in the sky and go to Lijing Pavilion for a cup of tea. This is not making disaster relief a joke, so what is it!"

"He's showing off his martial arts! Those two moves are worth showing off. Isn't it just flying from a horse to the third floor of Lijing Pavilion? To get him is like he can ascend to the sky!"

"I heard that there was a lot of public dissatisfaction over there, and riots were happening one after another, and it was so violent. He went there, and it was just a little bit of effort, and he didn't have to let the mob twist his head."

Gu Yuqing's face suddenly turned pale as she listened.

Ji Xiang immediately said: "Miss, don't listen to their nonsense. Miss knows very well what the Fourth Highness is like. These ignorant women will bring trouble to people's hearts. I will drive them away."

Jixiang said, turning around.

Gu Yuqing stopped her and said, "Let's listen and then talk."

Gu Yuqing was like this, Ji Xiang could only stamp his feet, with a small face, angry and angry.

"I don't know if the mob will twist his head off, but think about it, he is a prince, and he is always playful and disrespectful. When he went to Shaanxi, he didn't care about disaster relief. He has long been wild. Poor I just pity my son, he has to charge into battle, he doesn’t have a good commander, and he doesn’t know yet..." As he said that, he started to cry.

"Aunt Zhang, if you don't tell me, I haven't thought of it. I just thought that these four highnesses are ignorant and will make the people of Shaanxi more miserable. But I didn't expect this. Then wouldn't my man..." said this, There was great panic in her voice, and she couldn't speak because of this panic.

No matter how much discussion there is, it still means the same thing no matter how much it is heard and repeated over and over again.

The heart-pounding, flushed emotions were hit by the comments, until the scalding temperature returned to normal, and a bad premonition arose in Gu Yuqing's heart.

He frowned and left the window, heading straight back to the carriage at Chinanhou Mansion.

Along the way, Gu Yuqing frowned, her face was solemn, her eyes were closed, and she leaned on the pine flower pillow behind her without saying a word.

Seeing her like this, Ji Xiang Ruyi just thought that she was uneasy because of the discussion between the two women, worried about the fourth prince, and wanted to persuade her, but she couldn't say anything. She could only wrap the silk handkerchief around her fingers anxiously and repeat it. release.

Gu Yuqing was shaking with the carriage, and her thoughts gradually deepened.

The words spoken by these two women probably represent the mentality of the vast majority of military personnel on this march. Although the words of the common people may not be heard, they are the most direct.

Everyone knows this truth. As the emperor who has always held Xiao Yu in the palm of his hand, doesn't he understand?

Even if he listened to Han Chaoen's words and wanted to practice and polish Xiao Yu, this was the first time Xiao Yu had taken on an important task and he was going to such a dangerous place. Isn't the emperor afraid that something might happen to him?
That is to suppress the riots. Even if the suppression is successful, it is easy for someone to label him as cruel and unjust and trampling on human life. Not to mention, if he fails, he will be accused of being incompetent at least, and at worst, he will cause more public resentment. , or even lose his life.

According to common sense, the most appropriate thing to do is to send an experienced minister as the chief general to lead everything, and Xiao Yu, in the capacity of learning and experience, participates from the side!

Why did the emperor let Xiao Yu take on the heavy responsibility alone and take full responsibility?

Was this done intentionally by the emperor, or was he forced to do so?

The emperor is not a person without opinions, and it is definitely not because of Han Chaoen's few words that he easily changed his mind. What prompted the emperor to make such a determination and throw Xiao Yu alone into Shaanxi, a place where public resentment is boiling and riots are everywhere!

If it was normal, Gu Yuqing might not be so sensitive and suspicious, but right now, the people from Canglan Kingdom's elite battalion and the Seventh Prince Mo Jin's people gathered in Baoding Mansion must be carrying an unknown conspiracy. How can Gu Yuqing feel at ease? .

Seeing that Mo Jin is about to enter the court as an envoy of condolences, Xiao Yu is assigned to the distant Shaanxi. Is there any conspiracy of the Canglan people? Is the riot in Shaanxi a simple riot of public resentment, or is it deliberately instigated? Provoke!
