After the powerful minister was reborn, he married the delicate girl back home

Li Jiaorong had just stepped out of the yard when a bolt of lightning immediately flashed across the sky, making a "rumbling" sound, like bursts of drums, which made people's ears hurt.

The little girl was startled. She quickly covered her ears and looked up blankly, only to find that black clouds were spreading over her head layer by layer. , the surrounding suddenly became dark, only the light of lightning was frighteningly bright.

In an instant, the rain fell in big drops, which made her skin ache and made most of her clothes wet.

The rain on her forehead flowed into her eyes, blurring her vision and leaving her with a sour feeling. Li Jiaorong had to wipe it with her half-wet sleeves, but she still couldn't see the road clearly.

Suddenly, the rain on her head was blocked by someone. She put on a coat with the familiar scent of pine ink and was embraced into a warm embrace.

"Ms. sir, it's raining heavily. Can we still go home?"

Li Jiaorong wiped her eyes with her clean coat. She opened her watery almond eyes and looked at the person next to her with dependence. She knew he was coming when she smelled the scent of pine ink.

"Don't worry, let's get back to the carriage first." Gu Xingmo was afraid that she would catch cold, so he wrapped her up tightly and helped her get into the carriage.

The car was equipped with hot tea and clean handkerchiefs. Li Jiaorong drank a few cups and felt her belly warm. Gu Xingmo sat on the other side, wiping the water droplets on her body and urging the driver to leave quickly.

"Qinshan Temple" is a place where the eldest princess lives alone. It is already inappropriate for them to visit rashly, and it is even worse to stay overnight.

Gu Xingmo thought about this and planned to go home.

Li Jiaorong doesn't want to live in this strange temple, because the people here are too strange, the palace maid who cries whenever she wants, the strange and silent eldest princess, and the current spooky weather... Thinking about it carefully, it's still... It's better to go home.

The owner was in a hurry, so the coachman could only hurry up and get off the bus.

But the road was already bumpy, and it would be even harder to walk when it rained. Li Jiaorong was riding a carriage that was bumpy and swaying. She suddenly felt that the carriage was tilted half way, and the tea on the soft couch in the carriage was spilled all over the floor.

Gu Xingmo hurriedly asked, "What happened?"

"The wheel is stuck in the mud."

The coachman was so busy that his face was covered with sweat, but it was difficult for him to pull the wheels out even with his own strength. The horse stopped where it was and became impatient, huffing and puffing through its nose.

Gu Xingmo helped Li Jiaorong get out of the car, handed the umbrella to the maid sitting outside, and said:

"Hold the umbrella for Madam, don't freeze her."

On the other hand, he discussed with the coachman how to lift the carriage out in the rain. It rained more and more continuously, which made people have a headache.

After a while, after the two of them discussed it, Gu Xingmo turned to Li Jiaorong and said loudly: "Stay back." He was afraid that Li Jiaorong would be injured if he stood too close.

The maid quickly helped Li Jiaorong stand under the tree at the back.

Seeing her standing up, Gu Xingmo turned around and helped the groom to push the wheel that was stuck in the mud. The horse's hoofs stepped twice in the mud, and Gu Xingmo's light blue brocade robe became covered with specks of mud. , but he didn't care.

Li Jiaorong just stared at his back without saying a word. She still felt distressed when she saw him soaked in the rain. She picked up another umbrella and rushed out, covering more than half of Gu Xingmo's head with the umbrella.

Gu Xingmo was gritting his teeth and pushing the cart wheel hard. When he saw her coming, his heart suddenly relaxed, and the strength in his hands was gone. The cart wheel fell heavily back into the mud pit, splashing muddy water on the two of them, and even Li Jiao Rong's new dress was not immune to this.

"I don't need to hold an umbrella. Go back quickly."

Gu Xingmo tightened her coat for her, straightened the umbrella, and urged her to go back quickly.

Li Jiaorong refused and said:

"I'll help you move, I'm very strong."

Gu Xingmo refused to give in no matter what, and called the maid to help her move further away, while he continued to lift the wheel with the coachman.

Suddenly it started pouring rain, and Zhou Yuzhao felt uneasy. She stood under the eaves, urging the palace maid to get her umbrella quickly, and wanted to see if Li Jiaorong had left.

It was raining and the road was slippery, and the master was a wealthy man, so a fall would be serious, so Cuizhu asked her to wait, and he led a few palace maids to chase him out. Xu was too impatient, and even fell into a "dog-gnawed" car on the way. "Mud", the body was covered with mud and water, and Cuizhu didn't care. He wiped the rain off his face, let the little palace maid behind him help him up, and continued to chase him out.

When a few people reached the halfway point, they happened to find Gu Xingmo and the driver who were moving the wheel. They were all happy because they hadn't gone far yet.

Cuizhu looked around and finally found Li Jiaorong standing under the tree. She quickly walked over with an umbrella and said loudly:

"Mrs. Gu, stay here. It's raining too hard and it's difficult to walk down the mountain. My princess invites you to stay in the temple for one night. You can wait until it stops raining tomorrow before leaving."

The wheel of the cart was stuck in the mud and was slippery. It fell off again as soon as it was put up. It took a lot of effort for Gu Xingmo and the driver to lift it up completely. The clothes on his body were completely wet. If he didn't clean it up properly, he would be afraid. Will catch wind and cold.

Li Jiaorong didn't want Gu Xingmo to get sick, so she nodded and replied sincerely: "Thank you, Princess."

Seeing that she was willing to stay the night, Cuizhu was extremely happy. Several palace maids also hurriedly came forward to hug Li Jiaorong, holding the handkerchief and holding up the hem of her skirt, which shocked the little girl.

Gu Xingmo looked at the embarrassment on his body and thought about the little girl's frail body. He knew that staying one night at "Qinshan Temple" was the best solution now, so he nodded and agreed. .

The group had only walked a few steps when they saw Zhou Yuzhao rushing out from the rain not far away.

Cuizhu was startled, and quickly ran up to hold an umbrella for her, comforting her: "Don't worry, princess, I have already caught up with you, and the young master will spend the night here tonight."

Hearing that his daughter would stay, Zhou Yuzhao felt relieved. He felt cold and sneezed suddenly.

Seeing this, Cuizhu was afraid that she would get sick and hurriedly helped her back to the house, but she looked back three times as if waiting for something.

Cuizhu could only continue: "My young master will not leave tonight. Princess, don't worry, just go back with your slave as soon as possible."

Zhou Yuzhao nodded and followed Cuizhu back to the house.

Li Jiaorong looked at the back of Niao Na walking away, feeling a little uneasy. She stretched out her hand and gently grabbed Gu Xingmo's sleeve.

She always felt that the eldest princess was so strange, and she had just seen the eldest princess's face clearly, and they actually looked a bit similar. She didn't know if it was a coincidence or something...

After living for two lifetimes, Gu Xingmo saw Princess Roujia's face for the first time. The girl's features were very similar to hers.

The thought in my heart seemed to be confirmed.

Gu Xingmo lowered his eyes with complicated emotions, looked at the little girl's worried expression, and said softly: "She won't hurt us, there's no need to worry."

Li Jiaorong nodded and walked into the temple again.

Cuizhu asked people to prepare clean bathing water, and also brought new clothes that the princess had never worn, saying that they were sent from the palace a few years ago. The princess thought it was too gorgeous, so she kept them untouched.

Naturally, the gifts given to the eldest princess were all good things, but Li Jiaorong rejected them but could only accept them.

After delivering the clothes, Cuizhu still didn't leave, saying that he would help her bathe. Li Jiaorong sat in the bathtub, curling her toes uncomfortably, and she was still a little unaccustomed to it.

As soon as she touched her, Li Jiaorong subconsciously avoided it.

Cuizhu had no choice but to say that she would wait at the door to let her speak if she had anything to say, and then left.

Li Jiaorong breathed a sigh of relief, lay down in the comfortable hot water, washed herself from head to toe, and then put on her new, rather delicate clothes.
