It wasn't until it was getting dark that she and Qingzhi returned to Prince Huai's Mansion.
After returning to Prince Huai's Mansion, Qingzhi ordered someone to bring the Chinese medicine that had been brewed and persuaded Qin Rushuang to drink it. He also brought her a thick quilt and wrapped Qin Rushuang like a silkworm chrysalis.
"I thought I would be more relaxed when I returned to Kyoto, but I didn't expect that there are still so many messy things. Shouldn't there be no excuse for Miss to deal with other things today? If not, then just rest well under the quilt!"
Qin Rushuang glanced at Qingzhi funny, this girl is really getting more and more ideas.
She had slept a little late in the past few days because of planning things. After drinking Chinese medicine, she didn't know whether it was because the quilt was too warm or because the medicine contained ingredients to help her sleep. After a while, she felt drowsy and wanted to sleep.
Dimly, she heard Qingzhi talking to someone outside, and the voice sounded like Xie Xun. She wanted to open her eyes and get up to look, but she couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep in a daze.
She slept peacefully that night, and when she woke up the next day, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
Qingzhi came in to serve her, and Qin Rushuang asked, "Did Xie Xun come last night?"
Qingzhi curled her lips and said, "The prince wanted to see the child as an excuse. I think he just wanted to persuade the young lady, so I sent him away."
"You are so brave, little girl. How dare you send me away, Prince Huai."
"What am I afraid of? I took him outside to see the child. Didn't he say he wanted to see the child? Just let him see it."
Qin Rushuang was a little surprised. Qingzhi had always complained about Xie Xun's previous actions and was unwilling to let her children get close to him. Why did she change her temper today?
She thought so and asked.
Qingzhi was a little proud, "Didn't the prince say that he wanted to see the child? I held him and let him take a look at it from a distance, and didn't let him pick me up."
Qin Rushuang laughed: "You really only gave him one look? You are getting more and more ambitious, and you are a bit like a housekeeper. You are overqualified to stay in this prince's palace. I think I'd better marry you as soon as possible."
Go out and let you take care of the little home where you and Qian Ertong live."
Although Qin Rushuang had promised to preside over the marriage of the two of them after returning from the border, because the matter at the border had been delayed for too long, and Qian Ertong had lost his legs, no one dared to mention this matter after returning to Kyoto.
Qin Rushuang also mentioned their marriage for the first time.
Qingzhi blushed a little. Although she has a cheerful personality, she is still a girl who has not yet become a monk. She blushed, "I don't want it! Even if we get married, I will stay with the lady and serve her."
Qin Rushuang wanted to tease her a few more words, but someone came from below to report that it was Beauty Gu who was here.
Qin Rushuang stood up quickly and asked Qingzhi to help her wash up before letting Gu Meiren come in.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. I originally wanted to see you, but I didn't expect you to come see me first."
Gu Meiren waved her hand and said without any concern: "It's the same, I'm happy to see the princess."
Qin Rushuang showed a heartfelt smile, "This period has indeed made you worried. Qingzhi went to prepare breakfast. Me and Gu Meiren will share some."
Gu Meiren turned to Qingzhi and said, "Just prepare the princess's portion. I've already eaten it."
Qin Rushuang smiled. Indeed, she got up late today. Calculating the time, everyone in the house should have had breakfast long ago.
When Qin Rushuang was having breakfast, Gu Meiren was chatting with her about trivial matters in the house. The two of them didn't follow any rules of eating and sleeping, but they looked more and more like two sisters.
"The princess is back. I still feel a little bit excited about this day. I was alone in the house a few days ago. You didn't know it, but you suffocated me to death!"
Qin Rushuang's thoughts changed and she said to Gu Meiren, "If you are bored, I really have something to ask you to do."
Gu Meiren was a little curious, "What's the matter? You tell me first, I don't have your ability, I don't know many things."
"It's not a big deal. Before leaving for the border, I promised to marry Qingzhi and Qian Ertong. Now I'm so busy with trivial matters that I can't spare any time to prepare for him."
"You know, Qingzhi is the person I value most, so of course I can't be careless about her marriage. I wouldn't worry if I left it to someone else. I would like to ask you to help with the preparations."
Gu Meiren was a little hesitant, "But I haven't prepared for this matter. If you have any requirements, please tell me first."
"There are no requirements. Just play it big and do it in a lively way so that Qingzhi can get married in a lively manner. Both of them are the people I value most. There is no reason to do it in a small way. It has to be given to these people in Kyoto
Look, even though Xie Xun and I had an unpleasant quarrel, we are not at the end of the road."
"You just need to make preparations. I will give you the gift list for the wedding guests later. Make sure it is decent and lively."
Gu Meiren understood her thoughts after just a moment's thought.
"Princess, I want everyone in Kyoto to know that you have returned triumphantly from the border..."
Qin Rushuang smiled and nodded: "That's what I mean."
After saying that, he looked at Qingzhi who was already shy and didn't know where to put his hands, and said teasingly: "I hope our girl Qingzhi doesn't think I'm dictating her marriage. I treat your wedding as a banquet for old friends."
The banquet is here."
"Miss, you are talking nonsense again! I know that the lady wants to make me look good, and I will listen to the lady."
Qin Rushuang patted her hand gently and said, "As long as you understand, you have to know that you and Qian Ertong are my most important people, especially Qian Ertong... He will never be like this in the future.
Please try your best, you will be very blessed in the future, and making more decent people will be good for both of you in the future."
Qingzhi nodded and said the same thing, "I will listen to Miss."
Qin Rushuang and Gu Meiren hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they had endless things to talk about.
Qin Rushuang loved her informality and free and easy personality. She just felt that it was very refreshing to talk to her without beating around the bush.
It wasn't until Qingzhi reminded them that they realized it was time for lunch.
Gu Meiren smiled and said, "Let's go to the dining room and chat somewhere else."
Qin Rushuang nodded, but her smile faded a bit.
If we go to the dining room to have a meal, I'm afraid I'll see Xie Xun soon.
However, unexpectedly, Xie Xun did not come to the dining room to eat.
It wasn't until Qin Rushuang and Gu Meiren had finished lunch and walked into the corridor of the courtyard that they saw Xie Xun who was hurriedly preparing to go out.
"Where is Baiji?" Qin Rushuang asked Qingzhi: "Is Baiji in the house?"
Qingzhi nodded, "I'll call him right away."
Seeing that the master and servants had something to discuss, Gu Meiren said goodbye very wisely and was about to leave. Qin Rushuang stopped her and said, "You don't have to avoid it, I believe you."
Gu Meiren shook her head, "I also believe in the princess. I believe that everything the princess does has your own reasons and considerations. It's just that I am detained in the back house and there is nothing I can do to help. I was even stupid before.
I was fooled by that Sumei... and almost killed you, Princess..."
Meiren Gu had always been very sorry for the fact that she had been set up by Su Meiren, allowing Qin Fanghao to seize the opportunity to frame Qin Rushuang for causing her miscarriage. She wanted to mention this matter several times to apologize to Qin Rushuang, but she never found a chance.
Qin Rushuang took her hand and said softly: "What does that matter have to do with you? You don't need to take it to heart. It's okay if you don't know what I'm doing now. You can go back to the hospital to rest. I'll come see you another day.
you."
Qin Rushuang has her own considerations.
Gu Meiren has nothing to do with the things she has done. Knowing more will only do harm to her, but no good. Keeping Gu Meiren out of the matter is her greatest protection for Gu Meiren.
After Gu Meiren left, Baiji came.
"Where is the prince going in such a hurry?"
"Miss, the people from the court investigating the military power at the border have already set off for the border. The prince has also sent a few people to follow. The leader is General Zou Yuan."
Qin Rushuang raised her eyebrows, "Then the Imperial City Army is now led by the prince himself?"
Bai Ji nodded, "Yes, the prince has taken over the responsibility of commanding the Imperial City Army. He should be going to the Imperial City Army today."
"Prepare the carriage. I will go to the Imperial City Army Camp to see my little brother."
Baiji didn't ask any more questions and made preparations.
After a while.
Qin Rushuang and Bai Ji went to the gate of the palace together, but saw that Xie Xun had not left yet, thinking that something had delayed her.
Seeing Qin Rushuang coming out, Xie Xun walked over quickly.
"You have something to do and you need to leave the house? If you have anything to do, just tell the people below. You just came back from the border. You should have a good rest."
Qin Rushuang did not make sarcastic remarks to him this time, but her attitude was far from warm.
"I went to see my mother yesterday, and today I plan to go to the Imperial City Army to see my little brother."
"Then come with me." Xie Xun said with some joy in his tone.
Although the journey from Prince Huai's Mansion to the Imperial City Army Camp was not far, he felt happy at the thought of being able to spend some time with Qin Rushuang.
After he finished speaking, he waited expectantly for Qin Rushuang's answer.
