The Prime Minister's Darling
Chapter 1271 - 1271 619 Gu Yan Wakes Up (First Update)

Chapter 1271: 619 Gu Yan Wakes Up (First Update) Chapter 1271: 619 Gu Yan Wakes Up (First Update) This admission document could be guessed to be for Gu Jiao even with one’s toes.

“Why didn’t you take out Jiaojiao’s admission letter earlier?”

If it weren’t for the fact that the little monk was only five years old, he would have suspected the guy did it on purpose!

Little Jingkong protested innocently, “You guys didn’t ask!”

“Isn’t that because…” you fell asleep? The more Xiao Hen thought about it, the angrier he got, “Why didn’t you put Jiaojiao’s letter with ours?”

Little Jingkong said righteously, “Jiaojiao’s things of course can’t be placed with you smelly men!”

Xiao Hen mocked, “Ha, as if you’re not one of them.”

Little Jingkong looked dumbfounded.

Uh… It seemed like he insulted himself…

Xiao Hen looked at the admission letter with delicate handwriting and a shy and delicate little pink lotus flower made of silk at the end, and he was entirely upset!

…

Yan Country was to the west of Zhan Country, with the Yanshui River in between.

Gu Jiao, holding the admission letters of the group as well as the travel pass lent by her aunt, rented a boat and left the border of Zhan Country.

There were five of them on this trip, apart from her, Gu Yan, and Gu Xiaoshun, Mistress Nan and Master Lu were also in the traveling party.

As for the background of these two, Gu Jiao had not inquired further, but one thing she was clear on: They had come all this way for Gu Yan’s sake.

“Alright, have something to eat, we will be going ashore in half an hour,” Mistress Nan said.

The boat they rented was a large canopy boat, fitted with beds and chairs inside the canopy, and with the curtains drawn, it resembled a small compartment; at that moment, aside from Master Lu who was outside keeping watch, the other four were inside the canopy.

It was worth mentioning that since leaving the Capital of Zhan Country, Mistress Nan and Master Lu had stopped speaking the language of Zhan Country, they communicated with each other and with the three Gu siblings in the language of Yan Country.

From initially being completely confused, to now where simple communication was not a problem for the Gu siblings.

“Okay,” Gu Jiao replied in the language of Yan Country, “We’re out of dried meat, we only have some pastries left, let’s just make do to fill our stomachs for now. Xiaoshun!”

“Eh, sister!” Gu Xiaoshun responded.

“Speak Yan Country’s language,” Mistress Nan reminded.

Gu Xiaoshun scratched his head sheepishly, “Oh, got it.”

Gu Jiao opened the food box and had Gu Xiaoshun take a pack of pastries to send to Master Lu.

Right after that, she put the rest in a large plate, and placed it on the table.

She turned to Gu Yan, who was leaning against her back, and asked, “How are you feeling? Are you seasick?”

Gu Yan shook his head slightly, his pale lips moved slightly, “Not seasick.”

Gu Jiao raised her hand to touch his forehead.

Gu Yan had been weak ever since he had been resuscitated, waking up the night after in the carriage, always lacking strength and extremely frail.

Whenever Gu Jiao saw Gu Yan like this, she was reminded of Nangong Li who had vented his anger on him by hitting him with a palm.

That’s right, after learning about the appearance and stature of the other party from Gu Yan’s description, Gu Jiao could confirm that the deranged man was indeed Nangong Li.

Gu Yan had merely bumped into him accidentally, and in anger, Nangong Li had inflicted heavy injuries on him.

Didn’t he know that even if Gu Yan hadn’t had a heart condition, that palm strike would have laid him up at home for half a month?

Moreover, it was he himself who had sneaked into the Academy, causing Gu Yan to bump into him.

Why was this person so unreasonable?

Of course, if he were reasonable, he wouldn’t have carried out the secret assassination in Zhan Country.

Gu Jiao fed Gu Yan a piece of pastry and when she reached for a second piece, he turned his face away in refusal.

“Drink some water,” Gu Jiao did not force him to eat more.

After drinking two sips of warm water, Gu Yan leaned against Gu Jiao’s back and fell asleep.

There was still some distance to be walked after going ashore.

Gu Jiao carried Gu Yan off the boat.

Mistress Nan led the way at the front, with Master Lu and Gu Xiaoshun following, carrying the luggage and weapons.

Gu Yan, lying weakly on his sister’s back, said, “I can walk by myself.”

Gu Jiao’s steps were firm, “No need, I’ll carry you.”

I’m not tired.

As long as it’s you on my back, no distance is too far.

Under the scorching sun, Gu Jiao, dressed in the green clothing of a youth, carried Gu Yan with sweat streaming down her back; along the way, Mistress Nan offered to relieve her several times but she refused each time.

There were many people at the border checkpoint, but the reputation of Tianqiong Academy was truly significant; as soon as they saw that stack of dark blue admission letters, the attitude of the officials changed and they immediately processed them separately, issuing travel permits for within Yan Country.

The group smoothly stepped onto the land of Yan Country.

The customs and culture of Yan Country were quite different from those of Zhan Country, but along the way, they were all too busy caring for Gu Yan to appreciate the scenery en route.
