Chapter 447 We Don’t Want to Leave
It won’t be awkward if you don’t say no!
Gu Xiaoxi noticed that Concubine Pang was stiff and didn't dare to turn around, and she couldn't help laughing.
That’s all!
You will see each other every time you look up, so it’s better not to go too far.
She waved to her two daughters and took them for a walk to practice.
After a busy morning practice and breakfast, she took Dashun and the others for a walk around the village to see the medicinal seedlings.
"Master, are you going to the imperial capital too?" Dashun couldn't help but ask while driving the carriage.
“Of course I have to go, but I want to delay the trip as much as possible. After all, the villagers are not yet able to complete the process of growing the herbs themselves.
At least, we can hold off until the end of the year to harvest the last batch of medicinal herbs. "Gu Xiaoxi didn't really want to leave here. She had lived here for so long and had made so many friends, so she really couldn't bear to leave.
Ying San, who was sitting next to Dashun, could understand Xiaoxi's feelings, but San Ye knew Master Afeng's identity, which might become a big trouble in the future, so it was not safe to live in this place.
"Miss, there is nothing you can do about some things. You can only make plans early. If it really doesn't work, you can hand over the villagers to Tan Dahe, and you can also sell the farm to him. He will definitely be willing." Ying San gave the young lady an idea.
Gu Xiaoxi felt that this seemed to be the best outcome, and the matters concerning Clan Leader Quan could be handed over to Clan Leader Xu.
The Third Master is like a time bomb that might explode at any time.
"I will consider the method you mentioned. Give me some more time. I have to have a good talk with Tan Dahe. Also, Ma Weiwei and Chen Qinian can't stay here either." Gu Xiaoxi didn't want to drive away these two apprentices. Both of them were half-baked, and who knew how much they had learned.
Ying San understood the girl's difficulties and did not continue the topic.
The carriage drove into the village, and Gu Xiaoxi got off the carriage to check the medicinal herbs in the field.
…
In the town, the Golden and Silver Devils hadn't been able to sleep well for the past two days. As half a month was almost up, they still hadn't seen the scar-faced kid show up.
"Could that brat have sought help from someone else?" Granny Yin was a little worried.
Old Man Jin said confidently, "Don't worry. There's no one stronger than us within a hundred miles. He's probably looking for money."
"If they don't come, do we have to move too?" asked Grandma Yin.
Um!
Old Man Jin nodded and said helplessly, "There are no places nearby where gold and silver mines might appear. We won't get any good results here. We might as well move to another place. Maybe we can find more gold and silver."
Granny Yin felt that what the old man said made sense, so she went straight into the house to pack her things.
In the evening, after the last ray of afterglow, the sky gradually darkened.
Merchants in the town left one after another, and households began to close their shops.
Recently, some bad news came from the border town, causing panic among the people in the town. Everyone closed their doors early.
"Old lady, it seems like this place is really uninhabitable." Old man Jin went out for a walk and sat down on the doorstep anxiously.
"Then why don't we wait for that brat?" asked Granny Yin.
After thinking it over, Old Man Jin replied, "Two days, at most. If they don't come in two days, then we'll leave."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Grandma Yin said and closed the gate of the yard.
Then, at midnight, there was a knock on their door.
Scarface arrived and appeared at the gate of the yard with 500,000 taels of silver.
The Golden and Silver Devils were extremely happy when they saw the silver note worth 500,000 taels.
They packed up their things that night, and at dawn the next day, Old Man Jin sold the house to the town's real estate agent at a low price, and then left the town with Scarface and the others.
Gu Xiaoxi came over two days later and saw that the room was empty. She could only wait until the next morning and then go next door to inquire about the situation.
We learned that the people had left three days ago and sold the house. They left with several young men, and one of them had a scar on his face.
Scarface!
Gu Xiaoxi was certain that the Golden and Silver Devils were taken away by Scarface.
When she got the news, she felt a little confused.
Scarface is so anxious to bring the Golden and Silver Devils to the imperial capital, which shows that the situation has become extremely urgent. I hope that the Third Master can get through this, otherwise, Ye Lixuan’s situation will not be very good when he arrives in the imperial capital.
no!
She couldn't delay any longer, she had to make a decision as soon as possible.
She rode back to the farm and called Diguo, Yingsan and Yingsi into the house to talk.
When the three heard that the Golden and Silver Devils were taken away by Scarface, they were also worried that their master would be in danger after arriving in the imperial capital.
"Girl, don't hesitate. It will be very dangerous for Young Master Qinian and Miss Weiwei to continue staying here." Diguo suggested.
"Yes, only when they go back, will Master San feel that they have cut off contact with you." Ying San also thought so.
"I'll talk to them about this tonight, and tell the people in the village about it tomorrow." Gu Xiaoxi made the decision.
After the matter was settled, everyone was in a bad mood.
Gu Xiaoxi didn't say a word during dinner.
Seeing that Xiaoxi was in a bad mood, Mr. and Mrs. Gu thought that she was reluctant to leave Ali, so they tried to comfort her.
"Dad, Mom, eat. I'm fine." Gu Xiaoxi forced a smile and finished the rice in the bowl.
Putting down the bowl, she looked at Chen Qinian and Ma Weiwei and instructed, "Come to my room after dinner. I have something to tell you."
"Yes!" Chen Qinian and Ma Weiwei agreed in unison.
They also noticed that Sister Xiaoxi was in a bad mood, and it was probably not just because of the Second Master's departure.
Could it be...
They all seemed to have figured out the problem, and then they quickly finished the rice in their bowls and went to find Sister Xiaoxi.
Gu Xiaoxi made tea in the house and drank it while waiting for the two to come.
"Master!" The two men walked in and their names changed.
"Close the door." Gu Xiaoxi ordered.
Chen Qinian closed the door and the two of them walked to the chairs and sat down.
"Have you guessed why I called you here?" Gu Xiaoxi asked.
"Master, I don't want to leave." Chen Qinian looked at him with pleading eyes.
"Master, I don't want to leave either!" Ma Weiwei also looked reluctant.
Gu Xiaoxi took a sip of tea, sighed deeply and said, "Do you think I want to drive you away? If it weren't for the situation, I would have wanted you to stay at home for a few more years.
But, you also saw that the Second Master received the news and returned to the imperial capital. That's because the Third Master was fighting with the First Prince, and the Third Master was about to lose. Do you understand what this means?"
Both of them stood up nervously when they heard the news.
What does it mean?
This means that even if the second master doesn't want to ascend to the throne, he has to ascend to the throne. If he doesn't, the eldest prince will not let him go.
However, they also knew that the Second Master had no such intention and was now being forced to climb up, which would be very tiring.
"Go back and pack up, say goodbye to your friends, and after this matter is over..." Gu Xiaoxihua couldn't continue.
Because no one knows when this matter will be over?
Perhaps we can never get over this separation. Even if we meet again in the future, we can only be strangers. Otherwise, it would be harmful to these two disciples.
"Master!" Chen Qinian and Ma Weiwei knelt on the ground.
"Get up, my apprentice, you can't be so fragile. Remember, if the Third Master asks you why you went back, you must tell him that I drove you away.
You were driven away because you disobeyed my orders and wanted to gain skills outside." Gu Xiaoxi also thought about this.
"Wuwu...Master!" Ma Weiwei burst into tears.
Chen Qinian also wiped away his tears. Sister Xiaoxi was afraid that they would be implicated, so she wanted to expel them from the sect.
"Don't cry, this is all for your own good. Take these books back, read them carefully, study them well, and remember not to rush for quick success."
Also, you can't show off these skills. The princes are bringing in many experts from outside to show off their abilities. If you encounter a powerful one, you'll be in trouble." Gu Xiaoxi also wanted to tell them about this matter. Besides the Golden and Silver Devils, there must be other accomplices in the imperial capital.
After all, the fight for the throne is not just being done by the eldest and third princes. The other previously inconspicuous princes will probably stand up at this time.
