Reborn as the Savior of a Short-lived Father and Son

……

In the Duke's wife's room, the servant reported with a smile, "The eldest master asked the cousin to stay overnight today."

"Very good." The Duke's wife took off her heavy hair accessories and slowly curled her lips. "If he has become smart, I can help him find a marriage partner sooner, so that he won't be like a wooden man who only knows about the affairs of the court all day long."

The nanny hesitated for a moment, then spoke, "But I heard from the people in the eldest master's courtyard that they didn't hear any noise."

The Duke's wife laughed faintly, "Others may not understand his personality, but as his mother, don't I understand it either?"

"If he really got together with that girl so quickly, I would be worried. Give him some time. Although the girl's personality is not very pleasing, she looks pretty good. Besides, she is quiet and not noisy. Maybe he can get together with her in a few days."

The wife of the Duke just wanted her son to open up to the world, but she definitely didn't want him to indulge in beauty, so many of the servants in Shao Xingjian's courtyard were her spies, and every move over there could not escape her eyes.

……

The night before returning to Chizhou, Shao Wei returned to the general's mansion very late. It was late at night and Luo Feng had already gone to bed. Only Gu Qinghe was still waiting for him in the yard, looking through medical books.

The light was swaying in the wind, and the shadow cast on the book really affected her vision, but she was so engrossed in reading that she didn't pay attention to the discomfort, until the book was gently pulled away by a pair of hands, and when she looked up, she saw Shao Wei's somewhat helpless eyes.

"You're staying in the yard reading after all this. Even if you're not afraid of the cold, aren't you afraid of damaging your eyes?"

Gu Qinghe smiled and stood up.

It was indeed a bit cold in the yard, but it was not easy to get sleepy. If I stayed in the room, I would fall asleep after watching for a while.

The cloak she wore was thick, so she didn't catch a cold easily.

"I have read some information about Hu Xiang these past two days, and I was thinking if I could prepare some antidote pills for you to take with you, so that you can be prepared in case Li Rang really joins forces with Hu Xiang to use some insidious means."

But Gu Qinghe had only glanced at the pill that could cure all poisons in that tattered medical book and had some impression of it in his mind. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was extremely difficult to prepare it.

If her mother could study with her after she recovered her memory, there would be some possibility.

The medical book in her hand was borrowed from the palace library by Ming Xuan at the request of Concubine Ming. Gu Qinghe wanted to see if she could find some solutions.

She did have some resentment towards the imperial court because of the false accusation against the Chen family, but those soldiers and civilians were innocent.

Gu Qinghe didn't want to involve others in matters of grudges.

Perhaps he saw the fatigue and helplessness in her eyes, Shao Wei pursed his lips and said, "You don't have to take these responsibilities on yourself. I will take care of the things on the battlefield."

The person who should be responsible for the soldiers is Shao Wei, not Gu Qinghe.

He took out a hairpin from his arms. It was made of plain silver and inlaid with bright red gems, which was quite eye-catching.

He demonstrated for Gu Qinghe, "You usually keep the poison powder in your sleeve pocket. When you sprinkle it out, you will inevitably absorb some of it. If it is a close combat, it will be more difficult to attack."

He took off the ruby ​​on the top of the hairpin and said, "You can put some fast-acting medicinal powder in here. If you are in close combat, just take off the hairpin and press the red stone. As long as you scratch the skin a little, the poison powder will enter the body and take effect quickly."

In addition to this hairpin, there are several other hidden weapons suitable for Gu Qinghe to use. He taught her the methods one by one, and watched her demonstrate all the hidden weapons before he felt relieved.

The leaves in the yard rustled in the wind, and the bright moon hanging high in the sky was emitting a dim light.

Gu Qinghe placed those things on the stone table, put her arms around Shao Wei's much thinner waist, and lay on his chest, listening to his heartbeat like a drum.

"Once things here are almost settled, I will go to Chizhou to find you."

Shao Wei lowered his eyes and could see the top of Gu Qinghe's head. She looked even more petite in his arms, and the guilt in Shao Wei's heart surged up like an overwhelming force.

His responsibility is on the battlefield and in the country. He is a general trusted by the soldiers and civilians, but he is also a man.

He also wanted to hold Gu Qinghe under his wings and protect her from all the winds and rains from the outside world.

The reason why Shao Wei came back this time was not only because he learned that Gu Qinghe was framed and imprisoned, but also because he wanted to let the person above him know how important she was to him.

The superior is best at weighing the pros and cons. He is weighing Shao Wei's ability and role, and Shao Wei can naturally make use of his own ability and role.

He was fighting on the battlefield, and it didn't make sense that the people he cared about should be bullied and plotted against by these people in the capital.

Li Rang and Hu Xiang didn't know what was going on yet. The emperor just needed to use him, and he also knew that Gu Qinghe had an unrestrained character, so he naturally didn't dare to let anything happen to him.

It can be said that Shao Wei's return this time has found a very solid umbrella of protection for Gu Qinghe.

His hand fell on Gu Qinghe's back and he sighed softly, "I'll wait for you."

……

Shao Wei left the general's mansion late at night. He left the house not long after Gu Qinghe fell asleep. When Gu Qinghe woke up the next day, she found out that he had returned to Chizhou.

Although she felt a little reluctant and sad, she did not let these emotions affect herself.

She was busy with many things and had no time to take care of herself. She could only think of love when she had free time.

Of course, she likes this feeling very much. For example, when she has some free time, she will suddenly remember what Shao Wei told her and the little things they did together, and she will smile inadvertently.

That feeling was just like when I first knew my mother was still alive, feeling that I was not the only one left in the world.

She put some drugs in the hairpin that Shao Wei gave her. Although the drugs were not fatal, they could knock down a cow directly. As long as the skin was scratched a little, the person would fall down immediately.

While eating breakfast, Ouyang Xia saw her hairpin and stared at it, "What are you doing..."

She even put down the bun in her hand and asked, "Can I take a look?"

Gu Qinghe nodded, thinking that Ouyang Xia knew a lot about hidden weapons and must have seen the use of this hairpin, so she took it off and handed it to her, "Be careful, don't scratch yourself."

Ouyang Xia looked at it carefully. Seeing how serious she was, Lan Yu also came over to take a look. He found that it was just a hairpin, so he turned away and continued to eat his meal.

"Could this be done by Xue Ping?" Ouyang Xia's eyes sparkled.

Gu Qinghe looked confused, "Who is Xue Ping?"

She only cared whether others would see that the hairpin was a hidden weapon.

"Master Xue Ping, the hidden weapon master, I tried my best to become his disciple, but he just looked down on me," Ouyang Xia said while gritting his teeth, taking off the bracelet on his hand and handing it to Gu Qinghe, "Here, this was also made by him."
