Chapter 146 Back to Kyoto

"What did you say?"

  Hearing what Lieutenant General Liu said, Jiang Peihuan's expression changed instantly.

  Deputy General Liu did not speak, but handed the note in his hand to Jiang Peihuan. The note was written by Jiang Sijin, and it was sent by Feige.

  Knowing that the old lady was fine, Jiang Peihuan breathed a sigh of relief, but she was still a little worried.

  Seeing the look in Jiang Peihuan's eyes, Vice General Liu said in a low voice, "Miss, do we have to go back home? If Mrs. Xue knows the reason, she won't blame you."

  Hearing what Lieutenant General Liu said, Jiang Peihuan fell into silence. After thinking for a while, she said softly, "It's too late today, so I won't disturb grandma. We'll say goodbye to grandma tomorrow morning."

   "Ye Xiao, you have made a list of all the herbs needed for grandmother's recuperation, and I will give them to the second aunt tomorrow."

   "Yes, miss."

  Because something was on her mind, Jiang Peihuan didn't sleep much that night. When it was dawn, Jiang Peihuan tidied up a little, and took Ye Xiao to Mrs. Xue's yard.

  Old people sleep less, so when Jiang Peihuan arrived, Mrs. Xue was already up.

   Seeing Jiang Peihuan coming so early, the old lady's eyes were full of smiles, "Huan'er, why did you come here so early? Didn't Ye Xiao, as I said, be fine?"

   "Grandma, Huaner is here to say goodbye to you."

   "Farewell? You're going back to Kyoto, you didn't mean to stay with me for a while longer."

  When Jiang Peihuan said that she was going to leave, Mrs. Xue's eyes were red.

   Seeing Mrs. Xue like this, Jiang Peihuan felt uncomfortable. She stretched out her hand to hold the old lady, and she said softly, "Grandma, grandma was assassinated in Kyoto."

   "Assassinated? Then your grandmother was injured."

  After hearing that Mrs. Jiang was assassinated, Mrs. Xue’s eyes were full of worry.

   Seeing the expression in her eyes, Jiang Peihuan hurriedly said, "Don't worry, grandma is fine, but she was a little frightened."

   "That's good."

   "Your grandmother was assassinated, you really should go back."

   "Who wants to go back?"

   As soon as Madam Xue finished speaking, Xue Qi's voice came from the door.

   Seeing him, Mrs. Xue's eyes lit up, "Huan'er, I don't feel relieved that you will go to the capital alone, so let Aqi take you back to the capital."

   "Huan'er, you want to go back to Kyoto? Why don't you stay in Qingzhou for a while longer."

  After learning about the matter from Mrs. Xue, Xue Qi patted his chest and said, "Since this is the case, then I will send Huan'er back to the capital. I may not have seen my aunt for a long time."

   "Grandma, why don't you ask your mother to prepare some things from Qingzhou, and I'll take them to my aunt. My aunt hasn't been back to Qingzhou for many years, and I miss it very much."

   "Yes, yes... ask someone to prepare more food for Yan'er, as well as Mrs. Jiang's family and the other two young wives."

   After a while, everyone from the Xue family arrived.

  Jiang Peihuan took the prescription from Ye Xiao, handed it directly to Xu Yunniang, and then said softly, "Second Aunt, this prescription is for my grandmother to take care of her. During this time, I will trouble you."

   "You girl, when did you become so out of touch?"

   "Huan'er, you don't have to worry about your grandmother, we will take good care of your grandmother."

   "It's you. I don't know when I will see you again when I return to Kyoto."

  Xue Tao, a tall and strong man, has red eyes at this moment.

   "Okay, okay, when Huan'er gets married, don't we still go to Kyoto."

   "That's right, in two months, Huan'er is going to get married."

  Bringing this matter up, the emotions of everyone in the Xue family rose again.

   After Jiang Peihuan left Xue's house, it was already half morning.

  In addition to the four people, there are also three large carriages, which are all prepared by the Xue family for Xue Yan and the rest of the Jiang family.

  Although Jiang Peihuan wanted to return to the capital as soon as possible, she did not refuse these things. After all, this was Mrs. Xue's love for her daughter.

   But with three carriages, this journey is too slow.

  After leaving Qingzhou City, Jiang Peihuan looked directly at Deputy General Liu and said, "Cousin Qi and I took Ye Xiao one step forward, and you stay behind and walk slowly, responsible for sending things back to the residence."

   "Yes, miss."

  Vice General Liu has no objection to Jiang Peihuan's arrangement.

  Afterwards, Jiang Peihuan took Xue Qi and Ye Xiao to the capital.

  Xue Qi followed Jiang Peihuan on the left, saw the man on horseback, he laughed softly, "Huan'er, I didn't know that you are so good at riding."

   "Cousin Qi, have you forgotten that I have also been on the battlefield."

  Hearing Xue Qi's words, Jiang Peihuan laughed softly.

   "I really forgot, but after hearing what you said, I remembered it."

   "By the way, Huaner, what fun things are there in Kyoto now?"

  Whether it is Jiang Peihuan or Xue Qi, both of them are very good at riding, so sitting on horseback does not affect their conversation.

  Originally, it would take nearly two days to go from Qingzhou to Kyoto, even if it was a fast horse, but Jiang Peihuan and Xue Qi arrived at the General's Mansion in the middle of the night.

   "Ye Xiao, go and knock on the door."

  The gate of the General's Mansion was closed. Hearing Jiang Peihuan's words, Ye Xiao got off his horse and knocked on the door.

  The door opened soon, and the gatekeeper saw Jiang Peihuan sitting on horseback, and hurried forward to salute, "Miss, are you back?"

   "Did Brother and Miss Liu come back?"

  In Jiang Sijin's letter, Jiang Peihuan already knew about Liu Xin's rescue of Mrs. Jiang.

  Hearing Jiang Peihuan's words, the gatekeeper nodded and said hastily, "Both the young master and Miss Liu are back, and they only came back this afternoon."

   "Okay, I see."

  Nodding, Jiang Peihuan took Xue Qi to the mansion.

  After entering the yard, Jiang Peihuan looked at Xue Qi and said, "Cousin Qi, it's too late today. I'll take you to visit grandma tomorrow. You should rest earlier today."

   "I'll take you to rest in the big brother's garden."

   "Just ask someone to take me there, you've been tired all day, go to bed early."

   "I'm not tired yet, I'll take you there."

   Said, Jiang Peihuan took Xue Qi to Jiang Changbai's yard.

  When the two walked to Jiang Changbai's yard, they found that the lights in the yard were still on. Jiang Peihuan and Xue Qi looked at each other, and they walked in together.

   "Brother?"

   "Huan'er, are you going back to... Aqi?"

  When Jiang Changbai heard the voice, he immediately opened the door. When he saw Jiang Peihuan, his eyes showed a little smile. When he saw Xue Qi standing beside Jiang Peihuan, his eyes were full of excitement.

   "Changbai, long time no see."

   Xue Qi stepped forward and punched Jiang Changbai hard, and the two hugged each other directly.

   Looking at the two embracing each other, Jiang Peihuan smiled a little.

  Jiang Changbai and Xue Qi's voices are only a few hours apart, so the two have never been willing to address each other as brothers, and have always called them by their first names.
