Chapter 177 What is this woman planning?
Just as his patience was about to run out, Ye Chuxue finally walked in leisurely.
Guan Qiuyao stared closely at Ye Chuxue's gradually approaching figure, and a barely perceptible malicious look flashed across her beautiful eyes for a moment, but in the blink of an eye, this trace of viciousness disappeared without a trace as quickly as a flash in the pan.
Then, as if her expression had changed, a flattering smile immediately appeared on her face. She said in a delicate voice, "Princess, I have the audacity to bother you again. I wonder if I have caused you any trouble?"
Ye Chuxue glanced at Guan Qiuyao with a cold gaze and responded slowly, "Well, it is indeed a bit of a hindrance.
I'm sure you've heard that this princess is going to the border on the orders of His Majesty to handle important matters. I'm burdened with many tasks and am really busy!
If you don't have anything particularly urgent or important to discuss with me, please return home. We can discuss this further once I complete my mission and return to the capital."
After saying this, Ye Chuxue looked serious and spoke in a solemn tone, as if there were really a lot of important things waiting for her to deal with.
When Guan Qiuyao heard this, a ball of anger suddenly ignited in her heart.
She had never imagined that the other party would be so rude as to leave her alone for an entire hour! What was even more outrageous was that after just meeting her, he ruthlessly ordered her to leave without even a single polite exchange of words.
Humph, do you really think I, Guan Qiuyao, am easy to bully? I absolutely cannot just leave like she wishes!
Guan Qiuyao took a deep breath, trying to calm her inner anger, and then said calmly, "Princess, I know you are very busy with your affairs, but I have come to see you today to discuss something important.
To be honest, I came here this time precisely for the border matter that concerns the safety of the country! As far as I know, the journey from the capital to the border is long and extremely dangerous, and Muyang County is currently suffering from a huge disaster, so the situation must be extremely critical.
I am concerned that you, Princess, will not be able to handle such a complex situation alone, so I boldly request that you bring me and your subordinates with you."
Having said this, Guan Qiuyao paused for a moment, then continued, "Furthermore, my father is the Minister of War of the imperial court, and I was fortunate enough to have lived in Muyang County for three years. I am very familiar with the local customs, geography, and people's livelihood.
I believe that if I can accompany the princess, I will be able to help her solve the difficulties in Muyang County as soon as possible and seek benefits for the people. I also hope that the princess can agree to my request."
Ye Chuxue's eyebrows, as beautiful as distant mountains, were slightly raised, and a deep inquiry was revealed in her beautiful eyes. She stared closely at the person in front of her, thinking secretly in her heart: What is this woman planning?
Yun Muzhe had just asked the emperor for permission to go to Muyang County, and she was so eager to follow him. Could there be some unspeakable secret?
However, in a moment, Ye Chuxue's mind suddenly changed: Well, since she really wants to go, let her go!
As long as she was moving under his nose, everything could be under control, and he could make countermeasures in advance just in case.
Thinking of this, Ye Chuxue's face showed a trace of embarrassment, and she slowly said: "As a woman, why do you insist on going to that distant and dangerous border with this princess?
Not to mention the difficult journey and harsh environment, your parents would definitely not agree to this."
When saying this, Ye Chuxue's eyes never left the other person, as if she wanted to catch some clues from the changes in his expression.
Guan Qiuyao originally thought that she would have to have a good chat with Ye Chuxue again, but when she heard the last sentence Ye Chuxue said, her heart instantly blossomed with joy, and her face was full of uncontrollable joy.
I quickly responded excitedly, "No, no, no, that's absolutely not the case, Princess. I've already discussed this matter with my parents, and I've always admired you, Princess.
Even my father hopes that I can follow the princess so that I can have the opportunity to see more of the world and gain more experience."
Ye Chuxue sighed softly and said slowly, "Since it has been decided, then fine, you will go with me."
Guan Qiuyao was about to open her mouth to express her gratitude to Ye Chuxue, but Ye Chuxue did not give her the opportunity.
Instead, he immediately added: "However, some things should be made clear first.
Since you have decided to go on this trip with me, I will not be responsible for any unexpected situations or dangers that occur along the way.
In addition, this princess has always hated those spoiled little princesses who act like spoiled little girls all the time.
So, if you encounter any difficulties or hardships along the way, you can either grit your teeth and persevere, or stay in the capital and continue to be your daughter!"
A hint of viciousness suddenly flashed across Guan Qiuyao's beautiful eyes, but that look disappeared without a trace in an instant, as if it had never appeared.
She snorted softly, thinking to herself, "Hmph! When the time is right, I will definitely take all the treasures you brought with me, and then I will personally send you to the west!"
Then, as if she had suddenly changed her expression, an ecstatic look quickly appeared on her face, and she nodded hurriedly and replied, "I understand, Your Highness. Thank you, Princess, for giving me such a rare opportunity.
Please rest assured, Princess, I will do my best and will never disappoint you, nor will I become a burden to you!"
Ye Chuxue waved her hand slightly, indicating Guan Qiuyao to leave and make preparations on her own, and told her that they would set off early the next morning.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is already dawn of the next day.
Before daybreak, Guan Qiuyao couldn't wait to pack up and hurried to the gate of Prince Yunxin's Mansion in a beautifully decorated carriage.
At the same time, Yun Muzhe also arrived at the gate of the palace early.
Just as the two men slowly walked out of their respective carriages, their eyes happened to meet and collide in the air.
In an instant, Guan Qiuyao felt a bone-chilling chill suddenly surge up from her spine like a surging tide, quickly spreading to every corner of her body.
The chill came so suddenly that she couldn't help but shiver, and even had an urge to turn around and get into the carriage to hide.
At this moment, Guan Qiuyao stared straight at Yun Muzhe in front of her, and the face that was exactly the same as the modern Ling Ze came clearly into her eyes.
