Compared with Guan Jiyu's calm expression, Yuezhi's face was slightly unhappy.
"Who is that?" Guan Jiyu waited for Jin Chan to walk out of the house before asking Yuezhi.
Perhaps Xiang Lincheng was not in the house, and Yuezhi was a very outspoken child, so he pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "A disgusting person."
Guan Jiyu didn't expect her to speak so directly, and was surprised: "Isn't that your young master's friend? If you say that to her, be careful that your young master will be angry when he hears it."
Yuezhi picked up a package of things that Jin Chan had put down, weighed it, and said with a playful smile: "Master, isn't he here? Besides, Master has always been generous and has never been angry with us."
Her expression seemed to have guessed what the package was, and she sighed and said: "In addition to sending these medicinal materials, they are still medicinal materials, and our young master is not sick, so who can show this caring look."
"Does she... come here often?" Seeing Yuezhi start talking, Guan Jiyu couldn't help but ask this question.
Rather than what Jin Chan brings, Guan Jiyu cares more about how often she comes.
"Well...anyway, every time the young master comes back from Beizhong, she has to come over."
Yuezhi is very clever. When Guan Jiyu asked, she quickly realized what he meant.
She quickly explained: "Girl, please don't misunderstand our young master. Although Miss Jin Chan likes to come here, the young master has never let her stay here overnight."
Guan Jiyu suddenly blushed and said, "I... didn't mean that."
"Oh, Miss Guan." Yuezhi poured a cup of hot tea to Guan Jiyu and handed it to her, saying, "Don't worry, no matter how hard Miss Jin Chan tries to please, it will never be possible for the Young Master to do anything with her."
"Why?" Guan Jiyu took a sip of tea and said softly: "This kind of thing doesn't all depend on our own efforts? Besides, your master and I don't have that kind of relationship..."
Seeing Guan Jiyu's preoccupied look, Yuezhi stepped forward and hurriedly said: "What are you trying for? Miss, can't you see how much our young master cares for you? How can he treat the second person like this?
Are you careful?! Anyway, I haven’t seen it before.”
"You don't know something." Yuezhi lowered her voice and whispered: "That girl Jin Chan is already married! It's polite to call her a girl. She will already be the wife of a certain family."
When she opened her mouth, she just sputtered a lot of words. When she got angry, she said angrily: "Young Master is kind, so it's hard to ignore her, but she seems to be taking advantage of her, always pestering our Young Master, and others don't."
You know, I thought she was the future wife of this house."
Guan Jiyu was even more surprised by the information she provided. Miss Jin Chan was actually married...
So what do those words she said mean?
What is her relationship with Xiang Lincheng?
Before Guan Jiyu could figure out these problems, an urgent order suddenly came from the border area.
She was in the capital, and Xiang Lincheng, who came back in a hurry, conveyed this to her.
"Ji Yu, there is an urgent call from the border, and I order you to gather at the gathering point in the capital!" Xiang Lincheng rushed back when it was almost dark. She didn't care to say anything else. After receiving the order, she quickly dressed up and prepared to gather.
point.
The urgent letter has been sent to Nanqin, and Jiang Yingnian and the others should be able to arrive by night.
"See you next time when you have time." Guan Jiyu could only say this to Xiang Lincheng before mounting his horse.
Xiang Lincheng's expression was not as clear as when he left in the morning.
He seemed to hesitate for a long time before he said: "I know I shouldn't say this at this time, but I think I must tell you about someone truthfully."
Without blinking, he looked at her with a slightly sad look and said, "You should have seen her today. It's Jin Chan. There are some things about me and her in the past that I haven't had time to tell you yet."
When Guan Jiyu heard this name from his mouth, he suddenly felt inexplicable timidity.
She didn't know what she was afraid of. In short, since he mentioned this name, she never had the courage to look into his eyes again.
"Didn't we say that we would go to enjoy the flowers together in March?" Guan Jiyu bit his lip, lowered his eyes and said softly: "If there is still a chance, if we can still catch up, we can...
Going?"
It was too late, Xiang Juan had already arrived at the gathering place, and Guan Jiyu could not waste any more time and stay here for too long.
She couldn't wait for his answer, so she galloped away.
She couldn't hear whether the person behind her answered or not.
Maybe it's okay not to have an answer.
If you can't control things, just let everything happen.
There were almost no people on the road at night, so Guan Jiyu felt relieved and sped up to the meeting point on the east side of the capital. Passing by a dimly lit place, he didn't pay attention when a carriage drove out of the alley quickly.
Fortunately, Guan Jiyu reacted quickly and tightened the reins, forcing the horse to stop. As the horse neighed, the carriage also came to an emergency stop. The man sitting in front of the carriage stuck his head out, showing an extremely fierce and vicious expression.
of a pair of eyes.
The look in his eyes was clearly impatient because of this sudden obstacle.
But after seeing Guan Jiyu's face clearly, the owner of those eyes changed his expression instantly.
After only a brief moment when their eyes met, the carriage continued to move forward quickly.
Guan Jiyu was stunned for a moment, looked thoughtfully in the direction of the carriage for a while, and then continued towards the east of the city without any further delay.
When they arrived at the east of the city, Xiang Ju'an and He Lanlan were already waiting.
He Lanlan, who had always behaved well around Xiang Ju'an, immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Guan Jiyu and said easily: "Guan Xiaomei, long time no see, you are finally here! Why did you come here first without seeing Brother Jiang and the others?"
ah?"
He just said hello unintentionally. For some reason, Guan Jiyu felt vaguely guilty after hearing it.
In particular, he did not dare to look directly into Xiang Juan's eyes. He only lowered his head and said respectfully to Xiang Juan in a low voice: "I have seen the general."
Although Xiang Ju'an does not live with Xiang Lincheng in Beijing, he is Xiang Lincheng's only brother. As the saying goes, "Elder brothers are like fathers." Their parents died young, and Xiang Ju'an is older than Xiang Lincheng.
More than ten years older, he is Xiang Lincheng's only relative, and he is also Guan Jiyu's top general in the military camp. This time when Guan Jiyu saw Xiang Ju'an, she was not as open and calm as before.
She did not dare to answer why He Lanlan came here first. She always felt that staying with Xiang Lincheng for two days was too difficult to talk about.
At least it must not be mentioned in front of Xiang Juan.
Xiang Ju'an would never allow such a love affair to happen in his military camp, not to mention that the person she was in love with was Xiang Lincheng.
Guan Jiyu muttered a few words and managed to cope with it.
The three of them waited in silence for half an hour under the cover of night before they saw Jiang Yingnian coming on horseback with Zheshu and Jingcun.
As usual, Jiang Yingnian first greeted Xiang Ju'an, then exchanged a few words with He Lanlan, and finally turned his attention to Guan Jiyu.
He suppressed his smile, said nothing, and quickly withdrew his gaze.
Because Xiang Ju'an was here during this trip, even Zhe Shu, who usually loved chatting, did not dare to speak loudly. Everyone in the group, whether they were talkative or not, all rode in a well-behaved manner.
The horse followed Xiang Ju'an.
It wasn't until he left the main city of the capital that Xiang Ju'an said with a serious face: "In recent days, there have been repeated reports on the eastern border that unidentified cross-dressing warriors frequently come to spy. I suspect that the Zhenyu Kingdom in the east may have moved.
It’s a wrong idea to act.”
Xiang Ju'an is a very cautious person. He led everyone to the most remote place on the outskirts of Beijing and only told the incident after ensuring safety.
The war in the north has just stabilized, and other non-friendly countries are ready to take action.
This happened suddenly, but it was not unexpected. He Lanlan stretched his waist and said lazily: "Then what are the general's plans?"
Xiang Ju'an had already had his own idea, so he said without thinking: "The north has just calmed down, and the Yanjiang Corridor needs to be guarded. Ji Yu and Helan go there, and General Chen will transfer some more people to you."
He continued: "It's still unclear what the situation is in the east. I want to go and see for myself. Yingnian, Zheshu and Jingcun, you three will follow me to the east."
Just after assigning the destination, Jiang Yingnian couldn't help but said: "Why are Helan and Guan Jiyu going to the Yanjiang Corridor?"
Xiang Ju'an said matter-of-factly: "The two of them have fought together many times in the past and have a tacit understanding. It is most appropriate for them to be stationed at the Yanjiang Corridor."
"But General, I have also fought with Guan Jiyu." Jiang Yingnian argued: "The first time we went to Hanshaqu, you were not there. We came out of Nanqin together. The tacit understanding we have had for so many years is not the same as others.
Comparable."
Xiang Ju'an frowned, and looked at Jiang Yingnian with a sword-like gaze: "Don't always talk about what happened to you Nanqin, there are only a few of you, so why don't we just let you Nanqin people go to the Yanjiang Corridor? How many more people are there?"
Can you follow me? Stop talking to me here!"
After being scolded so harshly, Jiang Yingnian had no choice but to shut up in anger.
Xiang Ju'an always kept his word, so He Lanlan could only say to Guan Jiyu: "Then let's go directly to the north, Guan Xiaomei."
"The matter is urgent. We need to rush to the east immediately to check the situation." Xiang Ju'an's tone was rarely so nervous. Everyone also realized that the situation in the east should not be simple!
"Don't delay, you two. Let's split up. General Chen will arrange everything when you get to the north."
Guan Jiyu looked at Jiang Yingnian before leaving. Due to the emergency, she finally said nothing and changed direction and rushed to the north with He Lanlan.
"Miss Guan, wait a moment."
As soon as he reached the north of Beijing, He Lanlan stopped and looked back frequently.
Guan Jiyu asked in confusion: "What's wrong, Brother Helan, do you have anything else to do?"
Just as he was talking, a young woman emerged from nowhere. Even though it was dark and the road was dark, Guan Jiyu could tell that she was an extremely enchanting woman.
The appearance shouldn’t be bad either!
"Mr. Helan, why are you here?!" The woman was shivering from the cold, and she said coquettishly, "If you don't come here, I will freeze to death!"
