Before Gu Deming could speak further, a man entered from outside. He had delicate features, fair skin, and was dressed elegantly. Upon entering the hall, he bowed deeply to Gu Deming and his wife, saying, "I am Chu Feng, and I serve by the Prime Minister's side. The Prime Minister is busy with official duties, so he specially sent me to pay my respects to Lord Gu and Madam Gu. This is a small token of the Prime Minister's appreciation, and I hope you will accept it."
Two people followed in, carrying a box on their shoulders.
Gu Deming knew that Han Jinqing was cunning and good at planning. He felt that the gift was too hot to handle without reason, but he didn’t want to offend him. He looked at Chu Feng and said, “Please thank Prime Minister Han for his kindness. However, I cannot accept a gift without merit. I appreciate Prime Minister Han’s kindness, but you should take the gift back.”
Chu Feng had never seen anyone dare to return a gift from the Prime Minister. His eyes darted around, and he smiled, "Lord Gu, once the Prime Minister has given something, there's no reason to take it back. Please don't make things difficult for me."
Gu Deming was about to push it away again, but Madam Gu grabbed him and said to Chu Feng with a smile, "Please tell the Prime Minister that Lord Gu has accepted the gifts and thanks him for his kindness. Our Qingyin is young and inexperienced, so we hope he will take good care of her during the spring tour."
Gu Deming listened without saying a word, his face turning ashen.
“Mother, you…” Gu Qingyin stood to the side and couldn’t help but say.
Han Jinqing's things are not so easy to take. Who knows what he's up to? Gu Qingyin looked at her father, hoping he would refuse to take them.
Unexpectedly, Gu Deming only glanced at the madam and didn't say anything more. Chu Feng understood immediately, smiled, and had the box placed in the hall. He then bowed and took his leave.
Gu Qingyin felt that her father still had something to say, so she remained standing to the side. Madam Gu stepped forward and said, "Qingyin, what are you still standing there for? The Prime Minister is already waiting outside. Go quickly, take care of yourself on the way, and don't just think about official business." As she spoke, she pushed her daughter out and handed her a neatly packed bundle.
Gu Qingyin glanced at the two elders in the hall again, and for some reason, she felt a pang of sadness and almost burst into tears.
The carriages were parked outside the main gate of the Gu residence. There were two carriages, one in front and one in back. The front one was slightly more spacious, with ebony brocade curtains, which was reserved for officials in the court. Both coachmen were unfamiliar faces. The back carriage was slightly smaller but more exquisite and luxurious. Chu Feng was sitting in the front of the carriage, talking quietly with a petite woman next to him.
Gu Qingyin hesitated for a moment, then boarded the carriage in front. Pulling back the brocade curtain, she saw Han Jinqing dressed in a dark blue court robe, half of his black hair tied up with a silver crown, the other half flowing down his back. He leaned lazily against the carriage wall, lifting the curtain with one hand, his phoenix eyes looking out indifferently. Hearing her enter, he turned his head slightly and said with a light smile, "I've been waiting for you."
Gu Qingyin sat down opposite him without hesitation. The soft morning sunlight shone through the thin curtains onto his hair ornament, softening his handsome and clear face. She glanced away slightly, cupped her hands and said, "This humble official greets the Prime Minister." After a moment, she added, "Thank you for your trouble, Prime Minister."
Han Jinqing raised an eyebrow and smiled, "I just picked you up on the way. I've put in a thousand times more effort than I have this time before, but you don't care at all."
Gu Qingyin's heart skipped a beat. She glanced at him quickly and met his eyes, which seemed to be smiling but weren't.
Because of the ordeal she had gone through the past two days, she was feeling unwell and was somewhat drowsy. Not wanting to say much, she took out an old copy of the Imperial Censorate's inspection records from her bundle and casually flipped through them.
The carriage fell silent for a moment. Gu Qingyin forced herself to calm down and didn't think anything of it until the scroll in her hand was suddenly snatched away, and a handsome face loomed in front of her.
"What's wrong, Lord Gu? You don't look well." Han Jinqing pinched her delicate chin, his brows furrowed slightly as he carefully examined her expression.
Gu Qingyin panicked for a moment, then shook her head to break free from his grasp, and said stiffly, "This humble official is unharmed."
Han Jinqing was very close to her, and she could smell the faint scent of ambergris on him again. His breath lingered around her nose, and his voice was low, "Is Lord Gu worried about the spring inspection? Or is he worried about your private affairs?"
Gu Qingyin met his dark eyes for a moment, then pushed him away slightly and said, "Prime Minister, you are busy with official duties and have many responsibilities. My worries are really nothing to worry about."
"Others' worries are naturally insignificant compared to mine, but Lord Gu..." A smile flashed across his eyes, and he looked at her with deep eyes, "both in public and in private, I am willing to share your burdens."
