Chapter 183 Return to Beijing
Gu Lingyue and Long Shang had to wait for Kou Shijun and Zhan Qinyi to bring their people to Youzhou before returning to the capital together. During this time, Ye Qiaofeng said he had something to do and left.
Long Shang knew that his master didn't want to meet his mother to avoid embarrassment for everyone.
When Ye Xinyu saw his master leaving, he left with him.
A few days later, Yun Yi and others returned to Youzhou with Kou Shijun, Zhan Qinyi and others.
Yun Yi and others came directly to the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, while Kou Shijun and Zhan Qinyi stayed in the inn.
When Yun Yi delivered all the things Gu Lingyue bought to her in the yard, Gu Lingyue asked someone to deliver the gifts for Tang Minghan and others to them. A small part of the remaining things were put into the trunk of the car, and most of them were put into her space.
Gu Lingyue planned to remove the poisonous insects from Kou Shijun and Zhan Qinyi while in Youzhou, so as to avoid any accidents when they returned to the capital.
After she told Long Shang about this idea, Long Shang rejected it outright.
Because Gu Lingyue had morning sickness these days and couldn't eat anything, Long Shang was worried that Gu Lingyue couldn't handle it.
There was no way, Gu Lingyue could only put this idea aside for the time being and decide to talk about it when she returned to the capital.
In the evening, Long Shang received an express letter sent by Wang An. After reading the letter, his expression became serious.
"What's wrong?" Gu Lingyue asked in confusion.
Long Shang handed the letter to Gu Lingyue and asked her to read it herself.
When Gu Lingyue took the letter, she found that Wang An's letter actually said that Gu Chenxuan had been unwell for many days due to a cold and was in critical condition.
"I want to go back, right now." Gu Lingyue said without hesitation.
No matter what, Gu Chenxuan was the only person in the Gu family who was kind to the original owner, and before Long Fu was about to rebel, he risked his life to send her a message. For the sake of this friendship, she couldn't just watch him die.
Long Shang sighed and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, I'll make arrangements now and ask them to pack their things and leave in half an hour."
Gu Lingyue didn't expect Long Shang to agree so readily.
When she proposed to remove the poison from Zhan Qinyi and Kou Shijun in the morning, he did not agree.
Gu Lingyue looked at Long Shang with an apologetic look and said, "I'm sorry for making you worry. But don't worry, I will definitely take good care of our baby."
She put her hand on her belly. Although it was still very flat, there was already a little life here. It would be the fruit of her love with Long Shang.
Long Shang grabbed Gu Lingyue's hand and gently pulled her into his arms. He kissed her forehead and said with a helpless smile, "Silly, don't say such things again in the future. You are my wife, and your family is my family. How can I not let you go back?"
Also, you and the baby in your belly are my responsibility, I will take good care of you, you just need to keep a happy mood."
Gu Lingyue felt warm in her heart after hearing this. She raised her eyes and looked at Long Shang, a gentle smile appeared on the corners of her mouth, and she responded softly, "Yeah!"
Long Shang asked Gu Lingyue to sit on the stool and rest, and ordered the Yunshu sisters to come in and pack up. He went out to arrange the rest of the matters and send someone to deliver a message to his mother.
He had originally planned to take his mother and Kou Shijun with him, but now it seems that he can only let them go to the capital by themselves.
Zhong Wanqian and He Xueqi also heard that Gu Lingyue and the others were going back to Beijing, so they came to see Gu Lingyue off separately.
"Sister Yue'er, I didn't know you were in such a hurry to leave, and I didn't prepare anything. I asked the kitchen to make some pastries and brought some to you so you can eat on the road." Zhong Wanqian glanced at the personal maid beside her, and the girl quickly put the food box on the table beside her.
He Xueqi also gave Gu Lingyue her own gift, a pair of shoes she made herself.
Gu Lingyue smiled and thanked them.
"Thank you, sister-in-law. I was planning to stay a few more days, but the palace steward sent a message saying that my eldest brother has caught a cold and his condition is quite serious. I have to go back early."
"Then Yue'er, you must take care of yourself on this journey." He Xueqi said worriedly.
They also knew that Gu Lingyue was pregnant. She was really worried about her after the tiring journey.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, we'll drive back in two or three days."
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Lingyue felt a little uncertain when she thought about the speed that Long Shang was driving when they came back from Wuyue City.
Youzhou is less than two thousand kilometers away from the capital. At Long Shang's speed of less than forty miles per hour, two or three days would be enough to get there.
Zhong Wanqian and He Xueqi were shocked. How could the car be so fast?
At this time, Tang Minghan and his son hurried in from outside.
"Yue'er, I heard from the prince that you are going back to the capital now?" Tang Minghan asked.
Gu Lingyue nodded and said, "I'll leave in a moment."
"If you want to leave, your uncle won't say anything, but it's almost time for dinner. Eat before you leave. Your uncle has already asked the kitchen to prepare dinner."
The three of them, father and son, had already heard from the prince why they were in a hurry to return to the capital, but Yue'er was pregnant now, and her health was also very important.
Seeing Tang Minghan's earnest concern, Gu Lingyue couldn't bear to refuse, so she nodded: "Okay."
Tang Minghan looked at Tang Wenqing happily, "Hurry up and go to the kitchen and ask them to serve the food quickly."
"I'll go now." Tang Wenqing ran out quickly.
Seeing the Yunjin sisters packing up, Tang Minghan said that he would go to the main hall first and left with Tang Wenjin and his wife and Zhong Wanqian, leaving Gu Lingyue and the others busy.
When night fell, Long Shang and Gu Lingyue finished their meal and set off.
For convenience, neither of them took anyone with them, but let Yun Hao and others ride back on horseback.
For this reason, Yun Hao complained to Yun Yi while riding his horse forward.
"There's obviously room for a few more people in that carriage, but the master won't let us follow. I also want to ride in that carriage and feel the difference between that and riding a horse."
Yun Shu looked at him with disdain and snorted, "Even if someone sits, it's me and my sister, not you."
Yun Jin glanced at him without saying a word, then squeezed her legs against the horse's belly and rode forward."
Seeing this, Yun Hao quickly whipped his horse's back with his whip and chased after Yun Jin. "Yun Jin, wait for me. I was just joking. I don't mean to be angry with the princess."
Looking at Yun Hao chasing after her sister, Yun Shu curled her lips and said, "Tsk~" without giving her face, "Is there any use in being angry?"
Looking at Yun Shu's childish actions, Yun Yi thought Yun Shu was a little cute and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Yun Shu looked towards her when he heard the voice and rolled his eyes at her. "What are you laughing at? Is what I said so funny?"
Yun Yi looked embarrassed, "No, I think you are right."
Yun Shu snorted coldly and chased after her sister.
Yun Yi: ...
He also rode his horse forward.
At this time, Long Shang knew that Gu Lingyue was anxious, so he drove the car much faster than when he returned to Youzhou from Wuyue City. However, although the car was fast, because Long Shang was concentrating on watching the road conditions outside, the car was still very stable and he could hardly feel the bumps. However, this made Long Shang very tired.
Gu Lingyue originally wanted to take turns driving with him, but Long Shang disagreed. In the second half of the night, Gu Lingyue took him into the space and forced him to rest. In the end, they traveled during the day and rested at night, and finally arrived at the gate of the capital at noon on the fourth day.
At this time, Gu Lingyue remembered that they didn't know where Gu Chenxuan lived, so she could only go back to Prince Jing's Mansion first.
The guards in the capital had already seen Long Shang’s car, so they were not surprised and no one dared to stop him. Long Shang drove directly into the city.
At this moment, a guard came towards them on horseback.
Seeing that it was someone from his residence, Long Shang stopped the car and rolled down the windows. The guard quickly dismounted and said, "This subordinate greets the master, the princess."
"Speak." Long Shang said lightly.
"Uncle Wang asked me to wait for the master here, and then take you and the princess to where Master Gu lives."
Gu Lingyue's heart was lifted.
It seems that her brother is seriously ill, otherwise Wang An would not have sent people here to intercept them.
"Lead the way." Long Shang said solemnly.
The guard did not dare to delay and quickly mounted his horse to lead the way.
