GBP Chapter 205 Zhao State
Chapter 205 Zhao State
When Yu Guiwan heard her subconscious words, he couldn't help but laugh, "I know you won't go out and talk nonsense, I just want to lend you the carriage." While speaking, Yu Guiwan had already applied the medicine to himself neatly.
Xie Zhiyi then realized that Yu Guiwan's arm was injured, "Let me bandage it for you."
After Yu Guiwan had bandaged his arm, he pulled the knot on his arm with his teeth and said, "No need, I've already bandaged it." Yu Guiwan raised his arm.
"You're really not particular about small matters."
Xie Zhiyi looked at Yu Guiwan's smooth movements and once again had a different opinion of Yu Guiwan.
"We're about to leave, so don't get off the carriage."
Yu Guiwan gave a reminder before getting off the carriage.
Nangong Yi saw Yu Guiwan getting off the carriage and turned around and said, "Let's go!"
……
After many days of travel, they finally arrived at the State of Zhao.
They were all arranged to stay in the post station, but Xie Sui left quietly as soon as he arrived in Zhao State and did not follow Yu Guiwan and others to the post station.
"We've finally arrived at the post station."
Xie Zhiyi stretched out in the house and pinched her waist. She felt sore from sitting in the carriage for so many days. "Someone, I need to wash up."
Nangong Yi and Yu Guiwan arranged the remaining soldiers and went to the post station together. They only brought a few soldiers into the city, and the rest of the soldiers were stationed outside the city.
After all, this is not Zhao State, and not all soldiers can be brought in easily.
When the two of them arrived at the post station, Ji Mingchuan had already arranged everything. Seeing the two of them coming, Ji Mingchuan said, "Hurry up and wash up and take a rest."
"Someone just came from the palace, saying the wedding will be held in three days."
Yu Guiwan nodded and said, "I'll go wash up first and talk to you later." She and Ji Mingchuan looked at each other, and they understood each other tacitly.
Nangong Yi was not aware of this matter. Nangong Yi was sent by the temporary Queen Mother to protect Xie Zhiyi. In order not to expose this plan, she would not easily tell Nangong Yi.
The less people know, the less danger there is.
After so many days, Yu Guiwan finally took a comfortable bath and changed her clothes. She still wore a neat outfit and tied her hair into a high ponytail.
In Zhao State, she was not the Princess of Chen. She came here as a general to protect the princess. Naturally, she would not wear gorgeous clothes. The simpler the better.
After Yu Guiwan finished washing up, she went to find Ji Mingchuan.
"Princess Chen."
When Ji Mingchuan saw her coming, he stood up and leaned forward slightly.
"Just call me by my name. There's no Princess Chen here." Yu Guiwan sat down and asked, "When will you go to the palace? It would be best if you go before the wedding."
"I've sent a letter to King Zhao. Someone will come to take us to the palace tomorrow night."
"That's good."
She nodded. The best solution now was to reach an agreement with King Zhao before the wedding. This way, Xie Zhiyi's reputation wouldn't have to be sacrificed. They could just negotiate a deal and then take her back.
Ji Mingchuan was a little undecided, "But what about General Nangong? Should we tell him?" Now that Nangong Yi had also followed them to Zhao State, he didn't know whether he should tell him about the plan.
Speaking of this, Yu Guiwan narrowed his eyes.
"Nangong Yi is so smart, even if he can't think of the general idea, he probably has thought of most of it."
"You can tell him about this plan."
"Okay, I'll go find General Nangong and tell him about this." Ji Mingchuan nodded and immediately left the house to find Nangong Yi.
As soon as Yu Guiwan went out, he saw Xie Zhiyi had changed into light clothes and looked like he was going out.
The maidservant beside Xie Zhiyi persuaded her, "Princess, you can't go out. General Nangong just ordered me to watch you."
Another maid followed suit and tried to persuade her.
"Yes, and besides, you are unfamiliar with the country of Zhao, so Princess should not go out."
Xie Zhiyi shook off the maid's hand:
"Don't stop this princess!"
Yu Guiwan called out, "Princess Yong'an." She walked up to Xie Zhiyi and said, "It's dangerous outside now, so it's better not to go out." They were assassinated a few days ago by Xie Rou's men.
Xie Rou didn't want them to get married, so she attacked Xie Zhiyi. Now that Xie Zhiyi has left the post station, he might be in danger.
After all, we don’t know if there are any people with Xie Rou on the Zhao side.
Xie Zhiyi didn't want to listen to what they were saying. They kept repeating the same few words over and over again, "I'm getting married soon. Maybe I won't be this comfortable anymore. Can't you allow me to go out for a walk?"
"At worst, just send a few people to follow me and protect me."
Xie Zhiyi curled his lips.
When Yu Guiwan heard the first sentence, he felt a little hesitant, but after hearing the second sentence, he didn't say anything in the end.
"Since you are going out, I will go out with you."
Even if she stopped Xie Zhiyi now, Xie Zhiyi might try every possible way to slip away. Instead of going to great lengths to find someone to watch her, it would be better for her to go out with Xie Zhiyi.
"You protect me?"
There was some surprise in Xie Zhiyi's eyes.
Yu Guiwan raised an eyebrow, "Why, do you look down on me?"
Xie Zhiyi quickly said, "How could that be? Since the imperial aunt is here to protect me, I feel much more at ease." Xie Zhiyi still believed in Yu Guiwan's ability. As long as she could go out and play for a while, she would be so happy.
"Don't call me Auntie Huang when you go out," she warned.
"Then how should I call you?"
"up to you."
Yu Guiwan started walking out first, and when she saw Xie Zhiyi hadn't caught up yet, she called out again, "Don't want to go out? If you want to go out, hurry up and catch up."
Xie Zhiyi hurriedly followed Yu Guiwan's pace and left the post station with her.
Along the way, Xie Zhiyi wandered around, and Yu Guiwan was holding a lot of things, all bought by Xie Zhiyi. Xie Zhiyi couldn't carry it all, so naturally Yu Guiwan helped her carry it.
"Aren't you tired after walking around for so long?"
Yu Guiwan followed Xie Zhiyi around for most of the day, and seeing that it was almost time, she reminded him, "It's time to go back. We've been out for most of the day."
Xie Zhiyi, who was having a great time, was unwilling to go back. He approached Yu Guiwan and asked, "You've been out for so long, are you hungry?"
"There happens to be a restaurant over there. Let's go back after we finish eating!"
Xie Zhi pointed to a restaurant not far away and said, "I haven't had a good meal or sleep in these days. How about letting me go have a meal?"
Yu Guiwan didn't say anything.
"It doesn't take long to have a meal." Xie Zhiyi saw that she was silent and spoke immediately.
"Okay, let's go."
Yu Guiwan finally compromised, thinking that it would only take a meal, and since he had already been out for a while, it wouldn't matter if he delayed a little longer.
