Chapter Fifty-Nine

come back

The morning dew hangs on the branches, and the clear sky is reflected in the depression. Suddenly, dense hooves sounded, and several horses came out of the jungle to muddy the clear water.

"drive!"

after one month.

Qin Jun: "Falcon!"

A handsome eagle hovered in the sky and landed on the stone bench in front of Qin Jun.

Qin Jun quickly stepped forward to take down the letter, and Jin Xiu handed over the master copy for proofreading, and the two of them stared at the short letter in a daze.

Li Wuduan's letter from Jindi has become more and more concise, presumably because the war is tense, the march is tiring and some energy is exhausted.

Qin Jun: "My cousin wants reinforcements, but the imperial court doesn't want to."

Jin Xiu: "Can't the court send reinforcements?"

"It should be to help the Eternal Border." Qin Jun looked at the eagle sleeping on the table, thought for a while, and asked Jin Xiu to wait for the pen and ink.

Jin Xiu watched her write the letter, and finally said: "I don't know if the prince has calmed down."

Qin Jun: "...It's been more than half a year, so it's not enough."

Jin Xiu saw that Qin Jun's questions were commonplace, and said, "Princess, why don't you ask about the situation in the court?"

"It's too sudden to ask, the fourth brother will only guess whether I was instructed by others," Qin Jun thought for a while, and after writing the homework, he said at the end of the letter that Jiangbei is fun, but occasionally he misses his hometown, and asked Qin JunKuang would like to come pick her up.

Jin Xiu: "The princess is going back?"

Qin Jun shook her head: "No."

On the second day, Qin Jun handed over the letter and the keepsake to the courier at the Jiang Prefecture post station and sent it to Capital.

Ten days later, Qin Jun and Jin Xiu were rolling up their sleeves and shoveling salt in the salt room. Jiang Chaosheng was too busy lately, digging the salt well on the mountainside, and guarding the guards to build a warehouse to store the salt.Unable to get away, Qin Jun brought more than a dozen trusted maids to take over.

The temperature in the salt room was high, and the women were all wearing light clothes, showing their jade arms and snowy feet, and they were sweating profusely.

"In addition to Hu Helei, these salts can also be sold to people from the Western Regions and Quanrong people. Think about it, Hu Helei is a businessman, and he will resell the goods when he gets them. If we open a store in a country outside the customs, how can weIsn't there a lack of middlemen?" Qin Jun was holding a shovel, pointing his chin on the wooden stick, and looked at Jin Xiu with full eyes.

Jin Xiu nodded, shoveled a shovelful of salt into the barrel, and said perfunctorily, "Yes, yes, the princess's business empire is just around the corner."

This remark made all the girls in the salt room laugh, Qin Jun blushed slightly, and then continued to work without saying a word.

Xing'er picked up a handkerchief to wipe Qin Jun's sweat, and prepared warm tea. From time to time, she would let Qin Jun drink a few sips, so as not to catch her from the heat and cold.Xian, couldn't help asking: "Can you sell so much salt?"

Xiao Taozi held a notebook and stood aside, "Didn't you tell me? Sell it to the Western Regions, Wuhu and Quanrong people."

"Today in Jiangbei, a bucket of salt costs a tael of silver, and a bucket of rice costs only forty renminbi. People are even willing to eat coarse salt. As long as the princess is willing, a bucket of salt is fifty renminbi. Many people come to grab it! Why can't you find a buyer??” Little Taozi asked.

Qin Jun smiled, "Salt and iron are all controlled by the government, and the interests and benefits are intricate, so it's better to be careful."

"We can't let outsiders know about our activities in the villa. At least, our livelihood will be cut off, and at worst, our lives are at stake. Everyone must remember it." Qin Jun's expression became rare serious.

"No." All the girls responded one after another.

Qin Jun nodded, wiped off her sweat casually, "Go to work."

At night, Qin Jun was busy until midnight, holding a plate of raw meat to feed the eagle under the tree outside the wing room. He couldn't help but recall that it was usually Ji Si who fed He Fun.The hairpin picks up a piece of raw meat to feed. At that scene, if the goddess who is sympathetic to the world is smiling like a femme fatale, eating raw blood and flesh, she still has a smile on her face.

As if she was born with an evil seed, she gave birth to a white flower appearance. Her pitiful appearance made people feel close and dare not approach, because Ji Si wrote all the unfriendly expressions on her face. If you only look at her appearance, really didn't expect that she would be the female general who will destroy the world.

A piece of raw meat fell to the ground with a thud, Ying paced dissatisfiedly on the ten tables, squinting at Qin Jun, Qin Jun felt despised, picked up the meat on the ground and fed it to Ying again.

He Sun tilted his head, avoiding Qin Jun's feeding, and went to eat the clean raw meat on the plate.

Qin Jun: "..."

Jin Xiu: "Put it down, princess."

"Oh." Qin Jun put down her chopsticks, went back to her room to wash up, and couldn't help asking, "What day is it today?"

Jin Xiu: "The second day of November."

Qin Jun was slightly stunned: "It won't be long before it will snow in Capital."

Jin Xiu nodded: "Here."

Qin Jun pursed her lips: "Winter is coming soon in the north, and Jiang Prefecture is still in autumn... I don't know if the winter in Jiangbei is cold or not."

Jin Xiu: "The palace people were already making winter clothes two months ago."

Qin Jun turned over and lay down, "Oh." Then she closed her eyes and rested.

Jin Xiu tucked up the quilt for Qin Jun, "Princess sleep well."

Qin Jun didn't make a sound, and fell into a deep sleep from time to time. When she fell asleep in the middle of the night, she unconsciously rolled up the quilt and hugged her in her arms.Li, unconsciously smacking his lips.

One finger was white and slender, pulling up the black hair and pulling it aside.

"I've been overworked lately, so I can sleep peacefully by burning two incense sticks at night." Standing by the side of the bed, Jin Xiu said to Ji Si.

Ji Si nodded, and rushed all the way back to Jiangbei, her face was still tired and tired, but her clothes were neat and tidy, and she didn't look too embarrassed.

Jin Xiu: "Go and rest, I will be on duty tonight."

Ji Si nodded, looked at Qin Jun quietly for a moment, left the East Wing, and went back to her own courtyard to freshen up.

The next day, Qin Jun woke up and suddenly had to relax. In the past, she got up, dressed and had meals. In the morning, she went to the study to read and write. In the afternoon, she went to the salt room to weigh salt. In the afternoon, she checked the accounts.Then follow Jin Xiu to fight a set of healthy punches, and live a full and busy day, as if there is nothing to do these days.

"Where's the eagle?" Qin Jun held a plate of raw meat and waited in the courtyard for a stick of incense, but He Falcon flew down from the tree.

Jin Xiu smiled lightly and remained silent.

Qin Jun looked left and right, finally put down the raw meat, looked at the sky, and prepared to go to the study to read.

"Why is Xiaotao missing today?" Qin Jun asked Jin Xiu.

Jin Xiu said blankly: "It should be to reconcile accounts."

Qin Jun was also at a loss: "Didn't you count the past two days?" Qin Jun held up her fingers, "I borrowed five hundred taels from Aunt Liu in order to receive the goods, and I still have a few dozen taels left over, even as an example for the palace guards next month."The money can’t come out either.”

Jin Xiu nodded, but still didn't say anything: "No problem."

"It's okay," Qin Jun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Did you imitate Lin Yan's tone and demeanor?"

Ji Si was born in a bitter life. Although she lived a comfortable life following Qin Jun, she never forgot the hardships she experienced in the fine jade building. In her opinion, no matter how hard it was, she would never feel sad when she was sold in a brothel, soHe doesn't change his face when he encounters anything, like the clouds and the wind, he has cultivated the temperament of not changing his face when the mountain collapses in front of him, and he does things in a leisurely and orderly manner.

As for Jin Xiu Xiaotao and others, although they can take good care of Qin Jun, they are not as perfect as Ji Si.

Jin Xiu nodded, "She's not bad, she doesn't have any shortcomings except that she spends all her time in charming."

Qin Jun: "..."

Quiet in the study, Qin Jun will ask after a while: "Do you have a letter?"

Jin Xiu looked at Qin Jun suspiciously, and said, "What letter?"

"Lin..." Qin Jun coughed lightly, "A letter from Capital."

Jin Xiu: "No, not at all."

Qin Jun blushed slightly: "Oh."

At noon, after lunch, Qin Jun waited in the room for a while, but no one came for a long time, so she couldn't help asking curiously: "Aren't you going to make clothes to measure your body? Where are people?"

A maid in the palace was tidying up Qin Jun's changed clothes, and said, "The girls in Siyi have already got the princess's size, and started work this morning."

Qin Jun was taken aback for a moment, and then said: "I haven't seen the bamboo ruler, when did you measure it?"

The court lady also looked blank, and the corners of Qin Jun's mouth twitched slightly, "But did you use the old ruler from last season?"

The maid shook her head: "Probably not, those cloths have been woven for a long time, how could they be ruined with old rulers?"

Qin Jun murmured, "Could it be that you measured it while I was sleeping?"

Qin Jun went to the study to read, and when she was free for half a day, she was prone to wild thoughts when she was quiet. She looked at the Motai and thought of Ji Si, looked at the paper and pen and thought of Ji Si, and looked at the lush green leaves outside the study that no one was pruning due to illness.Zhu also thought about Ji Si.

Finally, Qin Jun couldn't take it anymore and called Jin Xiu.

"Didn't you talk about going down the mountain to talk about harvesting silkworms with a landlord two days ago? Just put on a face for me," Qin Jun ordered, "Let's go now."

Jin Xiu: "Not going today."

Qin Jun: "..."

"If you don't go, then don't go." Qin Jun didn't want to go either. Dealing with those landlords was very annoying, and she couldn't speak after changing her appearance. Every time she went out to discuss business, she couldn't bring Jin Xiu or Xiaotao, even the most stable Xing'er.It's not as good as Ji Si's understanding, knowing what she wants to do, what to say, and what to do with just one look.

Qin Jun sighed, "It's strange, why is no one bothering me today? Is everything done? Don't you need me to take a look at it?"

Jin Xiu: "..."

"Where's Jiang Chaosheng?" Qin Jun asked, "Why don't you come and scold me?"

Qin Jun was extremely impetuous, just because she calmed down, she would miss Ji Si whenever she had nothing to do, and her mood fluctuated up and down like uncomfortable.

"Where's Xing'er?" Qin Jun asked.

Jin Xiu said: "Going busy."

Qin Jun: "..."

"Go and do your work too," Qin Jun said helplessly, "you don't have to guard me."

Jin Xiu: "The servant's job is to guard the princess."

Qin Jun: "...I am very touched."

Jin Xiu nodded, looked out the window coldly, and stood guard at the door of Qin Jun's study as usual, trying to minimize her presence so as not to disturb Qin Jun.

Looking at the shadow at the door, Qin Jun couldn't help but think, Jin Xiu and Ji Si really have two temperaments, one loves to smile, but has a smiling face, and is very scary when angry, the other is cold and doesn't like to smile, but occasionally smiles very nice.

"Aunt Xiu." Qin Jun shouted, she didn't often call Jin Xiu that way, because in the memory of the sixth princess, Jin Xiu didn't allow her to call her like that, for fear of messing up her seniority in the palace, but after Jin Xiu combed Qin Jun and Ji's hairHowever, the grudge in her heart is not so deep, and it may be because she is far away in Jiangbei, so she does not have to abide by those strict disciplines.

Jin Xiu looked sideways: "What's wrong?"

Qin Jun: "You are often in a daze, what are you thinking?"

Jin Xiu's eyes drifted away, and he lingered on Qin Jun's eyebrows for a moment, then turned away and said, "I didn't think about anything."

In the evening, after the meal, two maids and Jin Xiu who didn't come often came to serve Qin Jun's room. They added hot water for Qin Jun, scattered flower petals and went out.

Qin Jun closed her eyes and leaned on the side of the tub, noticing a movement behind her, "Wash your hair."

The sound of footsteps approaching, followed by the sound of the wooden stool moving lightly, the man sat behind Qin Jun, using a wooden spoon to scoop water from the end of her hair and slowly wet the whole hair.

Qin Jun yawned and said, "Your skills are good."

The person behind him didn't make a sound, and massaged Qin Jun's scalp and back of his neck. Qin Jun was pressed down to sleepiness. After washing, he was taken out of the bathtub and put on the bed.

A handkerchief slowly walked away, Qin Jun shrank twice, snorted twice, turned over and lay on her side with her back facing her.

"Be careful about the wind and cold, dry off before going to sleep." Ji Si smiled and stretched out her hand to pull Qin Jun back.

Qin Jun was all over, rolled up the quilt, and opened her eyes to look at Ji Si.

Ji Si squatted halfway on the bench in front of the couch, at eye level with her: "The slave is back."

Qin Jun pursed her lips and said softly, "Bold."

Ji Si knelt down, grabbed Qin Jun's exposed foot and wiped it casually: "I'm wrong."

Qin Jun: "..."

"You came back yesterday." Qin Jun kicked Ji Si, with an unnatural expression.

Ji Si: "Yes."

Qin Jun: "Huh?"

Ji Si smiled and said: "When I came back at night, I saw that the master was sleeping soundly, so I went back to the other courtyard to wash up. I can't wait for you all sweaty."

Qin Jun: "What about today?"

Ji Si's smile deepened: "In the morning, I called Xiao Taozi to count the gold and silver brought back from the Eternal Border, and after checking the accounts, I ordered Xing'er to take the note and go to Jiangnan to pay back the money, and went to the back mountain to check whether the institutions are intact... that's right.After the girls in Siyi finished weaving the cloth, I stopped by to look at the cloth and drew a few patterns."

Qin Jun: "..."

"What's the matter?" Ji Si raised her head and finished wiping Qin Jun's feet, "Has the princess grown taller? I didn't notice it when we got along day and night, but now we've been separated for three months, and I realized that she is much taller than when I was at Capital?"

Ji Si seemed to want to measure the length of her legs. Using her palm as a ruler, she measured it bit by bit.

Qin Jun's face was slightly hot, she retracted her legs, tightened the quilt, "...Yes, I have grown taller."

Seeing this, Ji Si stopped entanglement, got up and went to get Qin Jun's bright clothes, and said, "I've lost weight too."

Qin Jun: "..."

Qin Jun had mixed feelings in her heart for a moment, and couldn't help thinking, why don't you touch it?

Separated in March, this person changed his gender?How come it's so easy to pass?
