Chapter 75: The Strange Old Man
Vertical day.
Changle got up early in the morning.
But what disappointed her was that her husband was not around.
At this time, she also remembered that Qin Wenyuan was going to the Ministry of Industry to find Lin Youwei to find out something.
Moreover, before he left, he specifically instructed the Dog and the Rabbit to stay here to protect Changle's safety.
Changle was speechless about her husband's arrangement.
Chang'an is under the emperor's feet. What kind of trouble could possibly happen?
As a former princess, Changle knew best how much importance Li Shimin attached to Chang'an.
It can be said that problems may occur anywhere in the Tang Dynasty, but Chang'an is the only place where that will never happen!
Therefore, Changle felt that her husband was really worrying too much.
After shopping and eating last night, he said that things would be very dangerous recently, so he arranged for the Dog and the Rabbit to protect him.
Changle didn't believe it. She felt that Qin Wenyuan was just trying to scare her.
"Miss, are you up?" Xu Gou walked in and asked.
"Um."
Changle nodded and said casually, "I want to go out for a walk. Brother Dog, why don't you and Rabbit stop following me?"
At this moment, Changle wanted to take advantage of Qin Wenyuan's absence to secretly find Cheng Yaojin.
In her eyes.
My husband is like a perfect unpolished jade.
But now it is buried in the sand.
As a qualified wife, Changle felt that she should spare no effort to help her husband Qin Wenyuan.
Let him shine brightly and bring glory to the world!
This is what a good wife should do.
I didn't think so before, because the two of them were in the county, which was a rural area compared to Chang'an, so Changle was not so utilitarian.
But now that she has moved into Chang'an, she must consider Qin Wenyuan's future.
After all, Qin Wenyuan had no relatives in the capital and no one to turn to.
To say something shameful.
On the streets of Chang'an city, pick up a stone and throw it out.
The person who was hit was probably of higher status than Qin Wenyuan.
In a place like Chang'an, being an ordinary person is a sin.
Therefore, Changle planned to "persuade Cheng Yaojin with emotion and reason" so that he would help her husband.
Changle had also thought seriously about the position she wanted to seek. It was rumored that Cheng Chumo was preparing to become a captain of a thousand men, and she wanted Qin Wenyuan to become the instructor of Cheng Chumo's one thousand subordinates.
Let her husband, who is an unparalleled warrior, teach these thousand people well.
Then he took this as an opportunity to rise step by step and lead her to live a good life.
The more Changle thought about it, the more beautiful it became, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up.
They all imagined that their husbands would become generals, and when they gave a command, the army would respond.
"Miss, no."
Xu Gou's cold answer made Changle feel like he was standing in an icy cave.
Although Xu Gou was not the cold answer, in Changle's eyes, he was!
Changle sighed, knowing that her plan would have to be postponed. She didn't dare to go to Cheng Yaojin under the watchful eyes of the Dog and the Rabbit.
"In that case, Brother Xu Gou, I'm going to go out and buy some things."
The Dog turned around and said, "Miss, just be normal. The Rabbit and I will protect you in secret."
After saying that, he bowed and left.
Then, Changle dressed up and went out, while the Dog and the Rabbit were secretly watching Changle to protect her from any accidents.
Soon after she walked out the door, she saw an old man who was walking with some difficulty.
The kind-hearted Changle walked straight towards the old man without thinking.
“Water…water…”
Faintly, Changle heard this call.
water?
How come there are people in Chang'an who need water?
Changle was slightly stunned, but didn't think much about it, just quickened his pace a bit.
At the same time, Xu Gou stood in front of Changle and said, "Miss, be careful of his danger."
He narrowed his eyes slightly and kept looking at the old man in front of him.
But Changle said, "Brother Xugou, the old man just needs some water, how can there be any danger?"
Changle thought for a moment and said again: "I'll give him some water, and then we'll leave, okay? Brother Xugou, you're watching too, nothing will happen."
Hearing this, Xu Gou looked at the old man and found that he had no weapons on his body, but he was still hesitant.
He always felt that there was something wrong with this person.
"Brother Xu Gou, it's okay." Changle said again.
After a while, Xu Gou exhaled, "Okay , Miss, you must be careful. The Master said that according to his speculation, these few days should be the most dangerous time for Yu Heng, so you need to be careful about everything."
"After all, we are in the open now and are easily targeted. We should do as little as possible."
"Yeah." Changle smiled and took the old man to get some water to drink.
She supported the old man and asked for water from a nearby house.
This family was very kind-hearted. Without saying a word, they immediately got some water for the old man to drink and asked him if he wanted to stay at their house until his condition got better.
The old man shook his head, drank the water and left.
"Strange old man."
Changle looked at the old man's departing back and was very curious as to why he had fallen to such a state that he couldn't even have a bowl of water to drink.
"Miss, it's time for us to go." Xu Gou walked over and said.
Changle nodded, then went to buy vegetables with her small basket.
The Dog and the Rabbit once again protected Changle in secret.
In her mind, perhaps the matter of the old man asking for water was just a small matter.
It was noon.
Qin Wenyuan returned to the Qin Mansion and shouted, "Madam, I'm back."
Soon, Changle came out, "Husband, you are finally back. The food is ready and it is almost cold."
After saying that, she walked forward and began to take off Qin Wenyuan's coat.
While changing clothes, Qin Wenyuan keenly noticed his wife's actions...
It seems...it seems to be slowing down.
In the past, when he came back, Changle would take off his coat and then go out to eat together.
The speed of changing clothes can be fast or slow, but this is the first time it is as slow as today.
You know, Changle is the person who pays the most attention to speed. He will try to be as fast as possible and will never be as slow as he was when he took off his clothes today.
So, as soon as he took off his coat, Qin Wenyuan turned around and hugged Changle's arm with both hands, "Madam, are you okay?"
Changle shook her head. "No, husband, I was able to go out to buy groceries this morning. What could have happened? You are worrying too much."
"Really..." Qin Wenyuan frowned slightly.
His intuition is very accurate.
"That doesn't make sense for it to be slower."
After all, this matter concerns Changle, so Qin Wenyuan did not dare to neglect it, so he reached out and touched Changle's head.
Well, the temperature is normal and there is no sign of illness.
Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "I was overthinking it. Madam, please wait for me. I'll go back to my room to put some things away."
"go Go."
Changle waved goodbye.
After Qin Wenyuan left, she seemed unable to help herself and finally coughed a few times.
"It seems that I have caught a cold recently." Changle didn't take it seriously. For fear of worrying Qin Wenyuan, she didn't tell Qin Wenyuan.
When Qin Wenyuan comes back, I will do what I need to do with him as usual.
