Chapter 223 Communication (Part 2)
Watching Lord Yue Cheng leave, Shi Rong said: "This princess is the same. Every time the prince comes, he has to wait for a long time. I can't blame Shi Hu for being angry."
Li Mushang: "Shi Hu has never been involved in the affairs of the villa, so he is really not suitable to come here."
"What the prince said yesterday was a bit harsh. Shi Hu is also worried about the prince's injury."
"He has never changed his temper. Sooner or later something will happen. If it weren't for my aunt, I would have punished him several times."
Shi Rong sighed.
"You have to mention him again later. The title of Princess Shun'an was given by the emperor himself, not by him as a minister who just criticized it at will. There won't be a next time."
"Shi Rong understands."
Li Muchang picked up the tea cup again, wondering in his mind what happened that made Lord Yue City leave. He originally thought he would stay here forever.
Yue Qing and Mo Xue are trying hard to learn, "Mo Xue, tell me, I am already used to your writing. Every word no longer looks like a symbol like before."
"The dean learns very quickly indeed. Let's learn so much today. If there are too many, it will be very hard for the dean to learn."
Yue Qing nodded, "Okay, as long as I can memorize all of this tomorrow morning. No, I have to think of a better way to read. Mo Xue, you might as well make me some word-recognition games."
"Reading... a game?"
"Well, for example, you write different words on pieces of paper, preferably hard ones, or thin wooden ones. Then put them in a place, you pick them and I look for them. It must be special for me to learn to remember like this. quick."
Mo Xue was stunned for a moment: "You can also play games by recognizing characters. I have never heard of it. I thought the master of the hospital knew how to read characters very easily."
"Hey, are you interested in learning while playing? By then, Cai'er and I can learn the characters that are commonly used here."
"Okay. I'll go find Yue Ke later."
Yue Qing was smiling with satisfaction when she suddenly remembered that King Bowei said he was coming to see her yesterday, "Hey, didn't King Bowei come to see me yesterday? Didn't he come?"
San Yuxiao said: "The people have been here a long time ago."
"Ah? Why didn't you tell me?"
"Seeing that you are studying seriously, I don't want to disturb you."
"We agreed yesterday, let's meet him. Where is the person?"
"In the front yard." Mo Xue said.
"Next time something like this happens, you should tell me. I usually don't want to break an appointment when I promise something to others."
"good."
Chang Yuxiao, Mo Xue, and Qiaoer accompanied Yue Qing to the front yard when they saw Yue Zhang here.
"The city lord is here too."
"The master of the courtyard is well, King Bowei is waiting in the hall."
"okay."
Several people came to the hall. Li Mushang frowned slightly when he saw so many people around Yue Qing.
Yue Qing sat on a soft chair and looked at Mo Xue and the others. "King Bowei, I'm sorry. I was listening to Mo Xue's class and forgot the time. I kept you waiting for a long time."
Li Mushang said: "I have something I want to talk to the princess alone."
Yue Qing sighed: "Well, Mo Xue and Chang Yuxiao are people close to me, and you are also familiar with City Master Yue. Is there anything King Bowei wants to say to me that he cannot let him hear?"
"There is very little diplomacy between the Villa and other countries. I guess there are some secrets that I don't want outsiders to know. The same goes for our country, Li."
Yue Qing thought to herself: What happened between you is none of my business. She thought for a moment that if she really couldn't leave, she might have to stay in Li country in the future. After all, Chang Yuqing's parents were there.
After thinking for a while: "Teacher Mo, how about you and the city lord go do other things first. My brother can stay here with me."
Mo Xue glanced at Li Muchhang and the others and nodded: "Master, please do it as soon as possible."
"Well, don't worry."
Seeing the two of them going out, Yue Qing said to Qiao'er: "Qiao'er, please go out and wait for me too."
"Yes, Master." He turned around and went out, closing the door.
Li Muchhang smiled: "It's quite useful for the princess to speak here."
Chang Yuxiao glanced at him: "I don't know what the prince wants to do with my sister."
Li Mushang picked up the teacup and said, "Princess has been away from Li Country for so long. Do you still remember what your parents look like?"
Yue Qing sighed: "Let's talk about going home. Didn't I already tell Shi Rong? I have to leave in a few days."
"But because the Yue clan knows."
"You know this too."
Li Muchang did not answer her, but continued to ask: "Is the princess staying here because she can attend the Yue clan meeting, or because she wants to meet someone? If she wants to meet the head of the Yue clan, I have some friendship with the clan leader. He I have been active in Li Country recently, so the princess can still meet people even if she returns to Li Country."
"What do you want to ask? How can you be sure that I am staying here because of the Yue family meeting."
Li Muchhang smiled: "Although I can't leave the hotel, I still have ways to get information. The princess must have visited a lot of places in Xibao yesterday."
"King Bowei, aren't you afraid that the city lord will hear this?"
"Master Yue City naturally knows it well. As long as you dare to let outsiders in, you can't prevent the news from leaking. The princess said she wanted to play for a few days. She should have had a lot of fun yesterday."
"Actually, I didn't want to hide it from you. I did have a good day yesterday, but it has nothing to do with how long I want to stay in Xibao City, right?"
"It doesn't matter, Princess Shun'an. It's easy to guess your thoughts. Everything is written on your face."
San Yuxiao frowned.
"You seem to be very concerned about how much I know about the outcome of this Yue family meeting."
"The Yue family's business in Li country is very big."
"You don't want them to do business in Li country?"
"No, the Villa has had business relationships with various countries since ancient times. It's just that the Yue family has some businesses that are of great importance to the Li royal family. I am very concerned about the Yue family's decisions."
"I'm just a woman, why are you telling me this."
"If the county master knows the result, I hope you can tell me afterwards."
"I can't know."
"If you don't know, then you don't know. It doesn't matter. I came to see you today because I hope to get some news from the princess, but the most important thing is to talk to the princess about the affairs of Li Country. The princess hasn't responded for a long time. Now that we are home, we probably know very little about Princess Yongjing’s current situation.”
Chang Yuxiao turned around and said, "What does King Bowei mean?"
"Princess Yongjing seems to be in poor health recently."
Yue Qing frowned. Before he could say anything, San Yu Xiao said: "My mother-in-law is ill? When did it happen?"
"Some days, I probably didn't tell you because I didn't want you two to worry."
"King Bowei, does he know what the disease is?"
"I have a cough from time to time, and it seems to be quite serious recently."
Yue Qing had no feelings for this concubine in her heart, and thought that Chang Yuxiao would probably be very worried. Also, Chang Fu is also a member of the villa, so there will always be someone to take care of her when she is sick, and why would King Bowei know her situation so well.
Li Mushang looked at the situation between the two of them and felt suspicious. Chang Yuxiao was really concerned about his mother's situation, but Princess Shun'an didn't seem to care much. "If the princess has nothing to do in Xibao City, it would be better to follow me back to Li Country as soon as possible."
"King Bowei is very concerned about my mother's situation. Who told you this? Isn't she in the backyard? I remember that men are not allowed in the backyard of the palace. Did my father tell you?"
"The princess is joking. In Xibao City, maybe I am not well-informed and it is understandable, but in Li Country, if I don't know this, my title is unnecessary."
"Thank you for telling me, I will discuss it with my brother."
"Princess Yongjing only has the two of you. As children, and your mother is sick, don't you have to return to your mother quickly? Is it possible that the head of the Yue family is so important to the princess, or is it that the Yue family is very important to the princess? ."
"This..." Yue Qing didn't know what to say. She knew the seriousness of the matter. Under normal circumstances, returning to Li country immediately was what a child should do.
"When does King Bowei plan to go back?"
"If the princess can leave, I can go back at any time."
Yue Jing gritted her teeth. "Well, King Bowei, please go back first. I'll think about it before I reply to you."
"Princess Shun'an, don't worry too much. The emperor also pays great attention to the condition of the princess. The imperial doctor will come to the house every day to check for pulse."
San Yuxiao said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern."
"If you marry into our country of Li, you will become a citizen of our country. What's more, the princess has a noble status, and King Yongjing loves his wife as much as she lives."
After saying that, he looked at Yue Qing: "Did the princess encounter anything at the villa?"
"Why do you ask."
"You don't seem to trust the people around you. I thought it was just because you can't trust me, but after several meetings, Mu Shang felt that the princess couldn't fully trust the people around her, including your brother. ."
Yue Qing reflected in her heart and realized that she did have some good points, but this person was quite perceptive. But he is not Chang Yuqing, and everyone around him knows it. "King Bowei is overthinking, there is no such thing."
"There is no best. If the princess really encounters something, don't forget to have the backing of Li Guo. No matter where you are, as long as something happens to the princess, I can protect the princess even if I die."
Yue Qing smiled and said, "You are different from the big guy yesterday. You speak much better. Thank you in advance."
"Shi Hu is reckless. He was reprimanded yesterday when he returned. After returning to Li Country, he will be asked to apologize at his residence."
"There's nothing to apologize for. We were the ones who started the attack."
"I don't know who that warrior is, but his martial arts is not weak."
"A guard. The one assigned to me by the Villa. Doesn't my mother also have one?"
Li Mushang disapproved in his heart and said with a smile: "So, with this person, the princess's safety can be more assured."
After chatting insignificantly for a while, King Bowei left, saying that he hoped to get a reply from the princess as soon as possible.
After watching them leave, Yue Qing saw that Chang Yuxiao didn't look good and asked, "Do you want to go back first?"
"I'll go with the master."
"It's because you are a spiritual guard. You have also seen the safety aspect. With Qi Jiao here, you don't have to worry so much."
"Can you return to Li country immediately after attending the Yue family's clan meeting?"
"Originally I wanted to take a look around, but it seems I have no choice but to go back to Li Country as soon as possible. Chang Yuqing has indeed not been back for a long time. It would be good to go back and have a look."
"Thank you for your understanding."
"It's nothing. You work hard to protect me and do a lot for me."
Chang Yuxiao looked at her: "Master, there is no need to be so polite to me. King Bowei is right. You are a little wary of me. I want to know why?"
"What does it mean to be on guard? What am I guarding against you for?" Yue Qing smiled.
"King Bowei is right. You don't trust me very much. Is it because of what happened that night or because the spiritual guards can sense your emotions."
Yue Qing pursed her lips and scratched her hair, "Well, San Yuxiao, how should I put it? Actually, I don't think the relationship between us is close. For me, you are the first person I am familiar with in this world. He is also the person who gets along with the most. But you also know that I have not been here for long. The person you have been getting along with before is Chang Yuqing, not me.
I know spiritual guard is very important to you, but to me it is just a profession, similar to bodyguard. You heard what I said to Chang Ge and the others that day. You can't be blamed for what happened that day. I took the initiative to find you. We don't care that much about this kind of thing. Sometimes I feel like you take it very seriously, and I don't know how to get along with you. Do you think it’s not good to just be a guard? "
"Spirit guards are not guards, our souls are connected."
Yue Qing looked at him and said, "It is the rule of the villa that spiritual women have spiritual guards. King Bowei said that I don't believe you. Is there anything abnormal about this? For example, one day I have a disagreement with the villa. You stand on my side. Which side. If I say that I don’t want to stay in the Villa and want to live a free life by myself outside, as a spiritual guard, can you take me away and not care about anything? Do you have to listen to the Villa? Oh, there are also considerations Your mother, Prince Yongjing’s Mansion, and your sister.
I can't handle my own affairs, and I really don't have time to think about my relationship with others. If I really can't leave you and have to stay around you, I hope that our relationship will be very single and simple. "
San Yuxiao nodded: "I understand, thank you for telling me."
"Seeing that you care a lot, it's better to talk about it. Let's go back." Yue Qing turned around and prepared to leave.
"You asked me just now if I can take you away. I can answer you now. If that day comes, I can take you away without caring about anything." Chang Yuxiao said behind her.
Yue Qing turned around: "What do you want me to respond to you?"
"It's nothing, I just hope you don't reject me too much."
"I rely on you very much. You are already an important person around me here. I can't treat the spirit guard like other spirit girls. My heart is not here."
"I know. No matter where you want to go, I will help you."
