"Madam, how many days will you be gone this time?" Yuan Zhen was a little worried. Every time Madam left, she came back covered in dust. They knew it very well, but no one would say it out loud.

Huanxi has already packed up all the things that need to be sorted out and is now sorting out the account books.

"I'll be back in a few days. Don't worry, nothing will happen. If you have anything to discuss, talk to He Yuanyuan and Yu Yan. If anything serious happens, go and ask Aunt Mo and the others for help."

"I'm not afraid of these things, I'm just afraid..."

Huanxi put down the account book and said with a smile:

"What? What could possibly happen to me? Hope I'm okay."

"Ma'am, that's not what I meant..."

"Okay, okay, I'll be back soon. Don't worry, I'll leave the Zhao residence to you. I'm at ease. Just keep an eye on the children."

At this time, He Yuanyuan knocked on the door and shouted outside:

"Sister, a guest from the Winter Courtyard asked me to bring a message."

Huanxi frowned. What was this for? She had already handed him the manuscript she was about to give him. What else could it be?

"come in."

When He Yuanyuan came in, Huanxi sent Yuanzhen out and asked He Yuanyuan what was the matter.

"Mr. Chu said he wanted to see you... and Mr. Xu."

You didn't want to meet me before, but now you want to pull me together to watch it.

He nodded happily, indicating that he would be there soon.

The children are still in the village school, so she has to go to town again tomorrow.

Go to the escort agency to see Ke You, and visit Hongying as well.

She called Xu Qingzhao to go to the winter courtyard, and when Bu Yan saw them coming, he took them in.

Almost half a month had passed since he had beaten Chu Yu, and his body had recovered very well. Anyway, Huanxi looked at him and didn't see anything abnormal.

This was the first time Xu Qingzhao saw Chu Yu. This person looked so familiar... so familiar... but he could not remember where he had seen her.

"Please take a seat, both of you."

Huanxi pulled Xu Qingzhao to sit down. A gust of wind blew, and the sound of leaves colliding was heard in the bamboo forest.

"I wonder what's the matter, Mr. Chu?" Huanxi was the first to break the silence.

"You two seem to be going on a long journey?"

Huanxi nodded without hiding it, waiting for Chu Yu's next words.

"Where are you two going?"

"Master Chu has great magical powers, how come he doesn't know this?" He said with a happy tone, but also with a sarcastic tone...

What Chu Yu wanted to say was perfectly stuck in her throat, and she didn't respond for a long time...

"Um... the place you two are going to is a den of dragons and tigers, and it's no exaggeration to say that. The reason I called you two here is to remind you that it's extremely dangerous. I'm afraid it won't be a comfortable journey..."

This is just bullshit.

"So, Master Chu has nothing else to say?"

Chu Yu's face suddenly flushed, and she stuttered, "Um... I will help you, Boss Zhao, to watch over Shuxiangju. Ordinary insects and birds will not come to disturb the peace of Shuxiangju."

What’s more, there is the eldest lady’s peace.

"Put aside your thoughts, my child is still so young. You don't object to free love, but you have to wait until she comes of age, right?"

Chu Yu pondered in her mind, the eldest daughter is not yet twelve years old this year, so the adulthood she mentioned should be Jigui? Then she still has to wait for four years?

Four years....four years...

Only four years...

His expression remained unchanged, but tears were streaming down his face. Four years, just four years...

Isn’t it just four years?

Xu Qingzhao had not missed any expressions on Chu Yu's face since she entered the room. Seeing him like this, she finally remembered who the person in front of her was.

The fifth prince of the royal family, Chu Ye’s fifth son, Chu Yi.

This child had been in poor health since childhood, but his grades in the Imperial College were always among the best. If it weren't for his physical condition, I think he could have competed for the throne.

What a pity.

She was secretly smacking her lips in her heart when Chu Yu's firm voice rang out:

"Okay, I promise you."

Huanxi nodded. He had already explained a lot when he beat him last time, so there was no need to explain it to him again. After all, he was not a fool.

"Anything else, Master Chu?"

"Also, have a nice trip." His face turned even redder after he said this.

His parents didn't live long during his childhood, so no one could tell him about those things. Although Boss Zhao was not much older than him, he had a hunch that he would learn things from this person that he could not learn in the Imperial College or in the capital.

I laughed happily twice. This kid is quite sensible.

"Okay, I will, don't worry."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, they left the winter courtyard.

"Huanhuan, this is the fifth prince."

joy:??

Although she knew that this person was from the royal family, she also guessed that he was a prince.

But when she heard people around her say that he was the real prince, she was still stunned. Then she felt relieved. There was a prince in charge in Shuxiangju. Although it was not open, it was also a good hidden card.

As soon as class was over, the children surrounded Huanxi and asked her if she wanted to go out.

Huanxi tried her best to comfort her and told her that they would be back soon. In the end, the few of them stayed with her for more than an hour before leaving to give Huanxi some peace.

"Rest early. Let's go to town tomorrow morning."

Seeing Xu Qingzhao was reluctant to leave, Huanxi hurriedly urged her to go and rest.

"Huanhuan, the capital is dangerous. Can you please not go?"

Huanxi shook her head and said in a calm and firm tone, "No."

"But......"

"No buts, this matter is not negotiable. I have to consider your situation before I can prescribe the right medicine, right?"

"Then you have to promise me that no matter what danger you encounter, you will take care of yourself first. If anything happens to you, I will never live alone."

Huanxi said without thinking: "Of course, if there is any danger, I will definitely run to the front. Don't worry, I will definitely not care about you."

She spoke so quickly and confidently that Xu Qingzhao's brain paused for two seconds before he nodded.

"Don't think too much, go to bed."

"it is good."

The next morning, she thought no one would be up, but at five in the morning the courtyard was already crowded with people bidding her farewell. Huanxi was so embarrassed she was digging her toes into the ground. She was most afraid of such sentimental scenes, and it wasn't like she wasn't coming back.

Last time, she laughed at Zi Dieyi, but now it's her turn.

"What are you guys...doing?"

"We're just delivering it, don't worry, we're not taking anything..."

"Mother, you must come back soon."

"That's right, mother..."

"Happy Auntie..."

"Okay, okay, I'll just be gone for a few days. It's not necessary. You just be good at home and listen to your teacher. I'll leave first and bring you some delicious food when I come back." She said as she walked out.

Xu Qingzhao was already waiting outside with the horse ready. Huanxi got on the carriage without saying anything, waved to everyone, and instructed Xu Qingzhao to drive the horse away.

Leaving everyone behind somewhat confused.

You left before you even shed a tear?
