Chapter 272 272 Just for (first update)
"If you want to play ball, go and play by yourself. I won't play with you anymore."
"My hands are really dirty."
Miss Jiang raised her chin, becoming more and more domineering, like a red rose with thorns.
She took a handkerchief from the maid's hand, wiped her hands slowly, then threw the handkerchief to the ground in disgust, and said to the palace girl and her little cousin, "Let's go!"
The three of them left first. Several other ladies looked at each other, and a girl in yellow caught up first. "Miss Jiang, let's go for a horse walk."
Several other noble girls were afraid of being left behind, so they followed immediately. Everyone left chatting and laughing, as if they had completely forgotten Yuan Zhitong.
Yuan Zhitong looked at the backs of everyone leaving, standing alone, feeling ashamed and annoyed. He grabbed the hydrangea in his hand tighter, and the golden bell was pulled, making a tinkling sound.
The originally crisp ringtone seemed particularly harsh at this moment.
"Girl." The eldest maid called timidly.
Yuan Zhitong seemed unaware, and it took a while before she moved. She couldn't help but look back at the bamboo shed where Gu Jue and Chu Qianchen were, with deep eyes.
She thought Chu Qianchen would at least look at her twice, maybe gloating that she was being ridiculed, maybe mocking herself for not overestimating her abilities, maybe...
She didn't believe that Chu Qianchen really didn't care about her at all...
However, what she saw was two intimate figures. The two people in purple riding clothes were shoulder to shoulder and head to head.
The couple were whispering while doing shuttlecock, and they didn't know what Chu Qianchen said. Gu Jue raised his hand and touched her head.
Yuan Zhitong: "!!"
Yuan Zhitong couldn't stay any longer, so he gave the hydrangea in his hand to the eldest maid, said "Let's go", and strode toward the palace.
The eldest maid hurriedly ran to catch up, but she was holding the hydrangea in her hand. As soon as she started running, the golden bells on the hydrangea jingled, attracting several people nearby to look at their master and servant.
Yuan Zhitong was extremely sensitive to the looks of others at this moment. She felt that everyone seemed to be laughing at her, so she walked faster.
After a while, their master and servant disappeared.
Yuan Zhitong didn't leave any ripples in Chu Qianchen's heart at all. She was concentrating on her second shuttlecock.
The couple finished the work one after another. Chu Qianchen put the three shuttlecocks together. The cloth tips used for the bases were different colors, one was rouge, one was bright red, and one was sapphire blue.
The royal blue one was made by Chu Qianchen for Chu Yunmu, and the other two were made by Gu Jue for her.
very nice! Chu Qianchen happily played with the two shuttlecocks made by Gu Jue, and felt the urge to take them back and put them away quickly.
Gu Jue grabbed one of the shuttlecocks and threw it to her gently and deftly, "Didn't you say you want to kick the shuttlecock?"
Chu Qianchen suddenly forgot the thought he had just had and said happily, "I'm good at kicking shuttlecock!"
Chu Qianchen is really good at kicking the shuttlecock. The simplest way is to kick it alone for an hour without the shuttlecock landing. She can also play various tricks, such as single flying swallow, double flying swallow, mandarin duck and so on. .
She was as light as a swallow, and her posture was graceful. She was kicking, jumping, and turning. The shuttlecock decorated with golden pheasant tail feathers was flying up and down in mid-air, as if it was part of her body.
Gu Jue looked at her intently, with a faint blush on her snow-white cheeks, a bright smile, bright eyes, and a pair of shallow pear dimples at the corners of her mouth, which was indescribably sweet.
Gu Jue likes to see her like this. This is how she should be at her age, carefree, innocent and energetic.
Chu Qianchen played shuttlecock for a while, then was called back by Gu Jue, and then sat down obediently.
She looked at him with a smile, her eyes so clear that they reflected his face.
"Don't move." Gu Jue took a handkerchief and gently wiped away the fine sweat from Chu Qianchen's temples. The handkerchief went down her cheek and gently wiped her chin.
There was a faint scent of agarwood on the square handkerchief, which was faintly visible. It was the scent she was most familiar with.
She couldn't help but sniff, her nose twitched, her eyes slightly curved, and her red lips slightly opened.
At this time, a few fallen leaves floated over in the wind, spinning and falling slowly.
One of the withered yellow leaves happened to be heading towards Gu Jue's temple. Chu Qianchen subconsciously raised his hand to grab the fallen leaf.
Gu Jue: "?"
Gu Jue tilted his head slightly in confusion.
As soon as he moved, her hands happened to hook around his neck.
"..." Gu Jue's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and his eyes darkened a bit.
When Amber came back, she happened to see the weird posture of the two people, and she felt a little unable to look straight at them.
Chu Qianchen quickly retracted his hand, still remembering to hold the fallen leaf on his shoulder between his fingers and twisting it, which meant that she did it for this.
Her face felt inexplicably hot.
"Princess, I gave the shuttlecock you made to the county master with your own hands." Hu Hue reported without squinting.
"Is Qiniang okay?" Chu Qianchen asked.
Amber immediately replied: "The county princess seems to be in good spirits, but she is not too lively... She likes that shuttlecock very much."
Hu Bo said that Gu Zhiyan was "not too lively", which was already a very euphemistic way of saying it. Gu Zhiyan didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, he just grabbed the shuttlecock and watched.
Chu Qianchen picked up the tea cup and took two sips of tea slowly.
Last night, Amber went to Yunxiangzhai where Shen Wan lived, and reported to Chu Qianchen when she came back, saying that Shen Wan seemed fine, but she, Prince Jing and others were not in good spirits. Shen Wan looked worried.
At that time, Chu Qianchen realized that Gu Zhiyan might be sick.
That's why she just sent a shuttlecock to let Amber go to Yunxiangzhai again.
Since she went to visit Gu Zhiyan at the Prince's Mansion with Shen on August 20th, she had never seen her little cousin again. After that, she also wanted to ask Shen to call Shen Wan and Gu Zhiyan to the Duke's Mansion, but Shen Wan didn't come.
At that time, Chu Qianchen had already realized that Shen Wan was deliberately avoiding him.
Chu Qianchen was not a person who didn't understand the ways of the world. When she thought of the embarrassing situation of Prince Jing's palace, she understood Shen Wan's last resort.
When people live in this world, they have many alternatives, worries, and scruples. No one can say that they can live according to their own wishes for the rest of their lives.
Later, Chu Qianchen learned from Mrs. Shen that Gu Zhiyan's health had improved, so he stopped asking about it.
After a pause, Amber added: "Although the princess didn't say anything, I saw that the county master was indeed sick, but he should have recovered."
"It's okay." Chu Qianchen said casually, his eyes were cold and his expression was calm. She considers herself to be a cold-tempered person.
Not right either.
Maybe she was a gentle and gentle girl in her previous life before she was fourteen years old?
Thinking of that time that was far away from now, Chu Qianchen's eyes were slightly dazed.
She has almost forgotten what kind of person she was before she was fourteen years old in her previous life. She seemed to be very weak, humble, and easily sad...
Ever since she was expelled from the Chu family in her previous life, she had changed and was no longer the same person as before. After the death of the prince, her heart had become cold and she had completely turned into a cold-hearted person.
In her previous life, Master Lin Miao once said that she could become a miracle doctor, but she could not become a good doctor.
She knew that the master had hidden a few words, and she did not have the benevolence of a "doctor's parent".
Chu Qianchen didn't care what her master said about her, nor what others thought of her. Anyway, she was a very selfish person. She originally studied medicine for the prince, otherwise, she wouldn't have studied medicine at all.
So, everyone who has been treated by her should be grateful to the prince, and these merits should be recorded on the prince, right?
While Chu Qianchen was thinking, he looked towards Gu Jue, his eyes burning brighter than the morning star rising at dawn.
Then, she felt her eyes darken.
Her eyes were covered with hands.
Chu Qianchen: "..."
amber:"…"
Jiang Yuan: "..."
Chu Qianchen remained motionless obediently.
Amber felt like she was being fed another mouthful of candy and silently looked away.
After a while, Chu Qianchen's eyes lit up again, and Gu Jue removed his hand.
Chu Qianchen's eyes were still a little uncomfortable with the light, and her beautiful phoenix eyes blinked to meet his long, narrow and deep ones, as if asking him why he blindfolded her.
Gu Jue's eyes were as calm as the sea, and he asked instead of answering: "Do you want to go see Qiniang?"
"I'll ask Amber to go again later, I won't go." Chu Qianchen shook his head and muttered sarcastically, "How can a majestic monarch of a country be so petty?"
As early as the last life, Chu Qianchen knew what kind of person the Emperor of Da Qi was, so he just said it casually. Isn't the emperor just trying to prevent Prince Chen's Palace from connecting with Beppu? !
Gu Jue patted Chu Qianchen's shoulder comfortingly, then waved to Jingfeng and ordered: "Go and ask Judge Zheng to check whether Prince Jingjun's palace has hired an imperial doctor, and get a copy of Hui'an County Lord's Here comes the pulse case.”
Zheng Yuanjian is from Prince Chen's palace.
The court judge is the second-in-command in Taiyuan Hospital, second only to the hospital envoy, and it is easy to adjust a pulse case.
When the frightened wind passed, Gu Jue pulled Chu Qianchen up and put a cloak on her.
The two of them walked hand in hand toward the palace and strolled leisurely.
The two returned to Zichen Palace hand in hand.
There were two charcoal braziers burning in the room, which was very warm. As soon as Chu Qianchen entered the warm place, he started to feel lazy, yawning and lazily leaning on the big soft pillow.
As soon as she sat down, Gu Zhiyan's pulse report was delivered to her hands via Jiang Yuan.
Of course, this pulse record is not the one written by Wang Taiyi, but was copied again by someone.
Chu Qianchen held his chin and read Gu Zhiyan's pulse file at a glance.
Judging from the pulse record, it was just that the child had a fever and loss of appetite, and there was nothing else special.
The pulse case was written clearly at a glance. After Chu Qianchen read it, he handed it to Gu Jue.
Gu Jue also glanced at the pulse table and told Jiang Yuan, "Let Magistrate Zheng check the pulse in person."
Jiang Yuan immediately retreated.
Chu Qianchen stared at Gu Jue, his eyebrows curved and his smile full of laughter.
She was very happy and expressed her joy directly: "Your Majesty, you are so kind!"
She likes the prince the most.
Thinking about it, Chu Qianchen's eyes lit up again, so hot and bright that Gu Jue could hardly look straight.
His right hand moved, and he couldn't help but want to blind her again.
This girl always makes him feel too much.
Gu Jue sighed in his heart, but his thin lips curled up, and his smile rippled like ripples on the lake.
At this moment, Jingfeng came in with a thin bamboo tube and said, "Your Majesty, a flying pigeon has just arrived from the capital to deliver a message."
This hunting palace is the emperor's palace, and the entire palace is under the eyes of the imperial army. Therefore, this flying pigeon letter was not sent directly from Prince Chen's Mansion to the palace, but was first sent to Prince Chen's Mansion in a nearby town. The stronghold will then be transferred here by the people at the stronghold.
Gu Jue took out a piece of thin paper rolled into a thin strip from the bamboo tube sealed with fire paint and slowly unfolded it.
Familiar fonts came into view. This piece of silk paper was much more complicated than the pulse table with only a few numbers. It was densely written on most of the page.
The corners of Gu Jue's lips curled up slightly, and he said, "There is 'movement' over there in the capital."
He spoke vaguely, without beginning or end, but Chu Qianchen knew what he was talking about. He pinched his sleeve curiously and asked, "What happened next?"
She almost had "it's not a big deal to watch the fun" written all over her face.
Gu Jue handed her the flying pigeon letter.
Chu Qianchen didn't take the letter, but took Gu Jue's sleeve and shook it coquettishly, waiting for him to tell her that he was passing by.
What's so interesting about the letter? She likes to listen to him talk.
His voice was clear and cold, like a clear spring flowing under the moonlight. It was very clear, very calm, and pleasant to listen to... But he usually didn't like to talk, so Chu Qianchen always liked to tease him to talk more in different ways.
She smiled delicately and sweetly, with a pleasing and expectant smile that made people unable to refuse.
