Splendid Pastoral

Chapter 154 Goodbye Surprise
On this day, Mrs. Gu was too busy to even think about eating. Although there were still seven days to go before leaving, but if something unexpected happened in the middle, everything was ready early.

Just from Liangcheng to Huangcheng, it will take nearly half a month on the road, and during this period, not only must prepare things for the road, but also be prepared to guard against the evil intentions of people with evil intentions.

Although it was time to go back to Beijing with Gu Qi, everything had to be properly prepared, so she was busy until dark, and Gu Po was still helping Gu Lingqing pack her luggage.

It's not possible to clean up everything, after all, they will stay here for six or seven days.

When Gu Lingqing came back, his face was full of happiness, even Gu Po could feel the joy in his heart.

"My lord, why are you so happy?"

Gu Lingqing didn't hide anything from Po Gu. Hearing her question, she told the truth: "Zhao Min has agreed to go to the imperial city with me."

"Really?" A look of joy flashed across Gu Po's face, and she couldn't help but think of the time when the three of them lived together before, and finally they were going back to the old days.

But it didn't take long for this idea to arise in Po Gu's heart, and then she denied herself in her heart, with a bit of worry in her eyes.

Worry: "My lord, this..."

Gu Lingqing naturally knew what Gu Po wanted to say to her, so she raised her hand to stop her next words: "I know what you are worried about, and I will definitely protect her."

Although in Liangcheng, without the control of his father, Gu Qi felt free and at ease, but he was also very happy after being summoned this time. After all, he had been out for more than half a year, and Gu Qi missed his mother and concubine a little.

Speaking of Liangcheng, Gu Qi was most reluctant to part with Zhao Min, so he spent a day looking for her at the Laifu Inn, wanting to say goodbye to her.

In the past few days, Zhao Min didn't do the cooking himself, and let Tao Zhiyi do it by himself every day, and he just watched from the sidelines, giving pointers to some things he was not proficient in.

Gu Qi didn't know that Zhao Min was going to the imperial city together, so he deliberately staggered the meal time and came to Laifu Inn.

As soon as he entered the alley, he saw Zhao Min sitting at the door of the inn, tinkering with her own herbs.

There was some tenderness in Gu Qi's eyes, and he stepped forward: "I don't know how to sell this medicine, Miss?"

Zhao Min heard the voice sound familiar, raised his head, saw that it was Gu Qi, and immediately showed him a smile: "If His Highness King Qi wants to buy it, naturally he won't charge any money."

After speaking, Zhao Min stood up: "Why is your Highness free to come here today? Sit inside." The two came to the lobby together.

After Zhao Min made a pot of tea for Gu Qi, he poured him a cup. Gu Qi did not drink it, but instead looked at Zhao Min: "I will get up and go back to the imperial city in a few days. I am afraid we will never see each other again in this life." . " There was some loss in Gu Qi's words.

"How do you say that?" Zhao Min was full of surprise, "I'm going to the imperial city too."

"What?" Gu Qi thought he had heard wrong just now?Asked again,
Zhao Min smiled, and repeated what he said just now, Gu Qi believed that he had really heard Zhao Min say that she was going to the imperial city, and was pleasantly surprised: "How could it be?"

"I was originally going to the imperial city. A few days ago, after the prince heard that I was going to the imperial city, he invited me to go with him, and I agreed."

"Oh, that's it." A flash of disappointment flashed in Gu Qi's heart, was it because of Gu Lingqing's invitation?

"It's not because of the prince's invitation, it's just going along the way."

Hearing this, Gu Qi's heart relaxed a little. Anyway, since Zhao Min went to the imperial city, there would be more chances to meet him in the future.

When Gu Qi left the inn, he was in a much better mood than when he came. He had come to say his last farewell, but he did not expect to hear such good news unexpectedly.

As early as when Zhao Min promised Gu Lingqing to go to the imperial city together, the two had already made an agreement, and only said that Zhao Min was also going to the imperial city together on the way.

Moreover, after returning to the imperial city, there were many dangers. Gu Lingqing didn't want Zhao Min to be in any danger, so he discussed with her not to announce the relationship between the two for the time being.
Gu Lingqing was worried that Zhao Min would be killed. Of course, Gu Lingqing didn't tell Zhao Min the reason. Some things, the less you know, the better.
Zhao Min trusted Gu Lingqing more and more now, and after hearing his proposal, he agreed without raising any objections.

Seeing that he was about to leave for the imperial city in three days, Gu Lingqing suddenly remembered that he had promised Zhao Min earlier that he would take her to the spring on Liangshan to play.

The day was just right, and Gu Lingqing came to the Laifu Inn alone. Zhao Min didn't know about his arrival and was still washing clothes in the backyard, but he was also happy to see him: "Why are you here?"

"I'll take you somewhere." Gu Lingqing said mysteriously.

Zhao Min looked at the water stains on his hands and some unwashed clothes, with a look of embarrassment on his face: "Wait for me for a while, okay?"

Not to mention a short while, even a few hours, Gu Lingqing is willing to wait: "Okay."

After getting Gu Lingqing's affirmative answer, Zhao Min hurried to the backyard, washed his clothes, cleaned his hands, went upstairs and changed into a set of clean clothes, and then went out with Gu Lingqing refreshed.

After following Gu Lingqing out of the city, Zhao Min looked at the familiar scenery around him: "Are you going to Liangshan?"

Gu Lingqing nodded: "Yes, do you still remember what I promised you last time?"

Zhao Min remembered that when the three of them went to Liangshan last time, Gu Lingqing promised to take him to the spring to play, and nodded immediately: "I remember."

The two of them were not in a hurry to leave, and took a leisurely look at the scenery of Liangshan.

At this time, at the turn of spring and summer, wild flowers are blooming in the mountains, and there are birds singing in the forest, which is really refreshing.
After walking for half an hour, Gu Lingqing brought Zhao Min to the spring, and as soon as he approached the spring, Zhao Min felt a little cool.

Squatting beside him, the spring water was crystal clear, Zhao Min put his hand into the spring water, and the cool water flowed across his palm, which was very comfortable.

"How do you know such a place? I didn't know it before." Zhao Min was very pleasantly surprised.

Gu Lingqing smiled, he would not tell Zhao Min that before asking her to come to Liangshan to hunt, he had already come to Liangcheng to check the situation, and after confirming that there were no ferocious beasts, he asked her to come here with confidence. found this spring.

"I heard what the butler told me."

Zhao Min just asked casually, after listening to Gu Lingqing's answer, he didn't delve into it, and concentrated on playing with the water.
