Spring comes to the desperate place

Song Chunlin stood up and stretched. Song Qin had already taken over Song Dazhuang's night watch. Seeing that Song Chunlin had woken up, she poured him a bowl of hot water from a clay pot.

"Drink some hot water to warm yourself up."

Song Chunlin was not cold, but he still took the bowl and thanked Song Qinshi sweetly: "Thank you, mother." He tilted his head back and drank the water. Seeing that the water in the earthen jar was almost empty, he added some more.

Song Qin looked at the sky, took out a bag of millet, took out a clay pot and started to cook breakfast. The grains were all taken out by Song Chunlin in advance and put into the backpack. It was probably enough for the family to eat for half a month. The things Song Chunlin took out were all produced in the space, and the quality was much better than what was bought in the market. When shopping with Song Dazhuang and others that day, Song Chunlin felt that the grain in the grain shop was not very good, and finally decided to take the grain from the space to eat.

The Song family knew that there were mountains of grain in Song Chunlin's space, and they had no objection to this. However, Gu Fengyue, an outsider, thought that they bought such good rice for themselves, and felt guilty, so he gave them the subsidy yesterday.

I have to say, this is a beautiful misunderstanding.

When the millet porridge began to bubble, the Song family members woke up one after another. After washing up one by one, they drank a bowl of hot water mixed with spiritual spring water. They immediately felt refreshed and energetic.

Song Qin generously sprinkled brown sugar and chopped dates into the millet porridge, and the sweet aroma started the Song family's morning.

While the Song family was having breakfast, Song Chunlin did not forget to feed their little friends some green grass sprinkled with spiritual spring water. The grass was just grown by Song Chunlin on the roadside in the morning. The horses liked it very much and rubbed their heads against Song Chunlin gently after eating.

When Song Xiaobao saw his brother interacting with the horse, he also called out "ah ah". Song Amma saw through his intention and could only helplessly hold her little grandson and move closer to him. The human cub tentatively touched the horse's face and pulled its sideburns. Not only was the horse not angry, it also moved its head closer to please the child, which made the child laugh.

After a simple breakfast, Song Dazhuang put out the fire, and the family got on the carriage and continued on the official road.

"Young Master Gu, how long do you think it will take us to reach the capital?" Song Amuo was mending a piece of cloth in her hand, and she also took the time to ask Gu Fengyue about the journey.

Gu Fengyue rode a fast horse when he came here, which was much faster than taking a slow carriage like this, so he thought for a moment before answering: "If everything goes well, it will take less than half a month. If the weather is bad, it may take twenty days."

Upon hearing this, Song Amao nodded and stopped talking, concentrating on sewing clothes. The pieces in her hands belonged to Gu Fengyue. When the child fell down the mountain, his clothes were already tattered, and he barely had one inner garment left to wear. But such a long time had passed, and it was time to change the clothes. If they were not changed, they would have rotted away. So Song Amao and Song Qinshi were responsible for the top and pants respectively, respectively, and they worked overtime to make new clothes for Gu Fengyue as soon as possible.

Song Chunlin admired the fact that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law could do manual labor in such a wobbly carriage. As soon as he got in the carriage, he closed his eyes and pretended to go to sleep.

Song Chunlin felt that it would take at least ten days or half a month to sort out the pile of books. Piling them on the ground and sorting them was not a solution either. Song Chunlin thought that if he settled down in the future, he would definitely ask Song Dazhuang to buy him a hundred or eighty shelves to store his things. It was too inconvenient to pile them on the ground.

Hey, why do other people have elves in their space, but not his? Oh, it's not that it's gone, but it's asleep?

Song Chunlin shook his head and resigned himself to searching through the pile of books. When he got tired, he just lay down on the ground and stretched out his arms like a pancake.

At night, in the study of the Marquis's mansion far away in the capital, Lord Gu was trying hard to listen to his subordinates' reports. Suddenly, a grey pigeon flew in and landed directly on the desk in front of Lord Gu.

The guards beside Lord Gu stepped forward and helped their master untie the bamboo tube tied to the pigeon's legs. Lord Gu took the bamboo tube, opened it, and was immediately overjoyed when he saw the words on it clearly.

"Good, good, good! I knew that my brother was a lucky man. Congratulations, great joy!" Lord Gu laughed like a madman, and soon he started coughing due to choking.

The guard quickly handed him the pill, but Lord Gu waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need it. After he calmed down, he took the small note and looked at it over and over again, with an unstoppable smile on his face.

When he was happy enough, he carefully put the note away and told the guards, "Go, harness the carriage, I want to go to the palace."

Marquis Gu, who had been bedridden due to the disappearance of his younger brother, suddenly submitted a sign to the palace at night. People who got the news speculated that Marquis Gu might not have much time left, and wanted to go to the palace to ask the emperor to appoint a crown prince. However, there were only two brothers in the Marquis Yongyi's mansion. If they wanted to appoint a crown prince, it would probably have to be adopted from a side branch.

Those branches who received the news were extremely excited and stayed at home almost all night, fearing that they would miss the emperor's decree of enthronement.

However, they waited and waited, but never received the imperial edict they wanted. Instead, the emperor issued three edicts in the middle of the night, demanding a thorough investigation of the case of Prince Guangyang's treason in the north, and also confiscated the house of Princess Qingning.

The county horse was still in the land of love when he was pulled out in the middle of the night, in front of the Third Prince. The Third Prince's face turned black. Princess Qingning was his biological sister, who almost died due to dystocia. This bastard actually dared to hide several beauties and concubines at home. He really thought that his royal family could not die.

For fear of upsetting his sister, the Third Prince did not dare to tell her the truth. He only ordered his men to break the county horse's legs and personally executed the women in front of him. Only then did the Third Prince feel a little better.

While the county magistrate was being executed, the case of Prince Guangyang was brought up, causing chaos in the court. Several high-ranking officials also had their residences searched.

Lord Gu, who had stirred up all the trouble, was staying in his mansion to recuperate comfortably. There was no other way, he was weak, and he could not die before his brother came back. At least, he had to stay alive until he cleared the obstacles for his brother.

"Seventeen, where is the person we sent?" Lord Gu asked the guard behind him. When he came out of the palace a few days ago, he sent someone to pick up his brother. Judging from the time, he should meet him soon.

The secret guard named Seventeen dutifully took out the pigeon message he had just received and said, "My lord, they have already arrived at Lion Ridge. The Second Young Master and his companions are in a carriage. I estimate that we will be able to pick up the Second Young Master tomorrow."

Lord Gu nodded in satisfaction: "Is the house over there ready? He is Xiao Er's savior, so I can't neglect him."
