The prince's personal bodyguard

Chapter 133 Sending Buddha to the West

"Hey, you rascal, you are acting like a rogue?" Bai Xinyin smiled helplessly.

Zhao Qing casually pulled a piece of dogtail grass beside him, put the stem into his mouth and bit it, then raised his head to look at the sky, acting like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.

"Hurry up and help the Seventh Princess up and send her back to Kyoto!" The Third Prince hurriedly ordered the guards around him to go and help the princess up.

"Who dares to help me?" Zhao Qing picked up the sword and pointed it at the guards.

These guards were all men, and knowing the princess's noble status, it was difficult for them to help her, let alone directly offering a hand to help her.

The third prince had no choice but to look at Bai Xinyin for help, but Bai Xinyin turned her head away, deliberately avoiding his sight.

Bai Xinyin turned to look at the man holding the folding fan, and felt that he looked familiar.

So she looked towards the man, only to see him pointing at Zhao Qing and slightly revealing a corner of his fan. At this moment, Bai Xinyin suddenly realized that it was Huangfu Yan.

"How did you two get together?" Bai Xinyin couldn't help but feel very surprised, with a look of disbelief on her face.

Huangfu Yan simply didn't cover his face, walked up to Bai Xinyin and said, "Two days ago, my mother's unjust case was finally cleared, which can be regarded as the fulfillment of my long-cherished wish. Today I was planning to go out for a trip and appreciate this magnificent and beautiful land. Who would have thought that I would run into the Seventh Princess as soon as I stepped out of the city gate early in the morning. She said she was lonely and wanted to go to Wei State with you, and asked me to help her. It happened that I had nothing to do recently, so I agreed to her and accompanied her here to wait for you!"

Bai Xinyin didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Then you help her, will you come back to protect her? Will you be responsible for her safety?"

"The princess is a precious lady, I can't afford it. I just said I wanted to help her, I didn't think so much about it? I'm sorry, Seventh Princess, can I leave now?" Huangfu Yan said as he was about to leave.

"You are not allowed to leave. You have to help people to the end and send them off to the west. Huangfu Yan, you are not keeping your word?" Zhao Qing muttered angrily.

"What nonsense are you talking about, bah, bah, bah, what a jinx. 'Send the Buddha to the west' or 'Send someone to their home', don't use the words carelessly if you don't know how to use them. And 'Send someone to the west'? We haven't even left the house yet? Are we all going west?" Ah Dai looked down on Zhao Qing.

"You are not a human, you are a bird. I can't send you away, so why do you care so much? You live by the sea?" Zhao Qing was not convinced at all.

"I don't live by the sea. I live by the mountains. The higher the mountain, the higher the peak. I'm going to piss you off! Haha!" Ah Dai deliberately angered Zhao Qing.

"You crazy bird!" Zhao Qing sat up angrily.

…………

Everyone looked at them and started talking to each other.

"Ah-du! Rip the knife!" Bai Xinyin couldn't let the man and the bird keep quarreling, so she made a pause gesture, "Excuse me, if you can't get the Seventh Princess, are you determined to fight to the death here?"

"Yes!" Zhao Qing nodded firmly.

"Okay, then it's not impossible for you to fight to the end! Maybe Third Brother will send you back soon, right? Third Brother." Bai Xinyin winked at the Third Prince.

The third prince looked bewildered. He was always good at dealing with challenges from the outside world, but facing his own sister he seemed helpless and could only stand there and watch.

"So, will you listen to me or not?" Bai Xinyin turned to look at Zhao Qing, with a cunning look in her eyes.

Zhao Qing's little brain was working rapidly at this moment: if she answered obediently, she might be sent back immediately; but if she said she was not obedient... thinking of this, she blurted out without hesitation: "I am not obedient!"

"Oh, so you were disobedient." Bai Xinyin frowned slightly and fell into contemplation for three seconds.

Then, she raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and said, "Okay."

Bai Xinyin slowly turned around and whispered to the people behind him, "Come here! There is a lot of dust raised by the vehicles going back and forth on this road. You carefully help the Seventh Princess to the clean and tender grass next to her. By the way, it is not good to let her sit like this all the time. Find someone to help her press the acupoints and change her posture so that she can lie on the grass. This will make her more comfortable and prevent her from speaking again and becoming thirsty. Then, seal her mute point as well, and reduce the number of times she speaks as much as possible to avoid a dry and painful throat. When we leave for a distance, the acupoints will naturally unblock themselves. Leave a few people here to guard the princess, and when we walk a little further, we will safely escort the princess back to the palace. After you complete your task, immediately catch up and meet us."

"Yes!" The person behind Bai Xinyin answered loudly.

"Ayin, you are not fair..." Zhao Qing was interrupted before he finished speaking. Meijiu and Nanxing smiled at each other and came to Zhao Qing's side.

Nanxing reached out and gently pressed the acupuncture points on Zhao Qing's body. Zhao Qing suddenly felt his body stiffen and he could not move.

She secretly groaned in her heart, and thought that when the two men came to her, she could still struggle, but Nanxing's method was too fast, leaving her no time to unleash her potential as a shrew.

Seeing that she was about to be carried to the roadside by these two people, Zhao Qing couldn't help but feel anxious. She tried to ask for help from the people around her, but everyone seemed to turn a blind eye to the scene before her.

"Don't let her lie here any longer. What if ants bite her? Give her one of our stools. Well, we should leave here too!"

Before she finished her words, she was ready to lead the others to leave.

"Ah...that's not..." Seeing that Zhao Qing was about to cry, the Third Prince couldn't help but feel a trace of pity in his heart. He wanted to plead for her, but when he thought of the dangerous road ahead, he swallowed the words back.

After a moment's silence, he turned to Zhao Qing and said, "When you return to the palace, you must be obedient and never run around again." After saying this, the third prince sighed helplessly, turned around and prepared to follow the main force.

Just when Zhao Qing was filled with panic and thought that everyone would abandon her here, Bai Xinyin suddenly took action and easily opened her mute point, and asked again: "I'll ask you again, are you obedient?"

"Listen...be obedient!" After the lesson just now, Zhao Qing obviously became much more obedient. Not only did he respond quickly, he also nodded vigorously to show his sincerity.

"Be obedient, and we'll go back if you do!" Bai Xinyin couldn't help laughing and teased her on purpose.

Zhao Qing smiled at Bai Xinyin and shook his eyes: "Ayin, don't smile like that, it will make people drunk to death!"

"Actually, it's not that we are completely unwilling to take you with us, but if you disobey orders along the way, you will most likely fall into the hands of our opponents. At that time, they can use you to threaten us, and you will become our weakness, thus putting us in a passive situation. So, everything depends on your own performance. With your current ability, I'm afraid you can't even match one finger of Nanxing!" Bai Xinyin said earnestly.

Faced with this straightforward evaluation, Zhao Qing could only nod silently, secretly regretting his own incompetence.

The third prince nodded after hearing this.

"We are on a mission of great importance. It is not just to protect you. Everyone has their own mission. You must be clear about this. I have two things to say. If you agree, you can go with us. If you don't agree, you can go back to Kyoto immediately. Okay?"

"You talk, you talk, I'm listening." Zhao Qing's eyes were filled with tears after hearing what Bai Xinyin said, and she could only obey obediently. It was exactly like the relationship between a superior and a subordinate.

"First, you have to change your clothes a little and pretend to be my maid. Then, you have to learn a way to save your life. You have to learn Qinggong from Nanxing every day during this journey. If anything happens, you can run away. But learning Qinggong is very hard. Are you sure you can do it?!"

"I can do it! I can do it!" Zhao Qing nodded repeatedly, having just come out of the sadness of being abandoned.

"Okay, don't just agree with your mouth. If you slack off once on the way, the same thing will happen again!"

"Don't worry, sis. No, I will persist!" Zhao Qing's eyes sparkled.

"What did you call me?"

"Your Highness!" Zhao Qing burst into laughter.

"Okay, let's go, Xiao Qingzi!" Bai Xinyin originally wanted to take Zhao Qing with her, but felt that she had to teach her a lesson, so that she would remember to protect her.

Zhao Qing was not stupid, so how could he not know? He immediately got up, took his horse, and followed Bai Xinyin.

"Let's go west to obtain the scriptures together!" Ah Dai shouted again, causing everyone to laugh.
