The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 738

Chapter 738: 342 Get Close (Seventh Watch)

At night, Little Jingkong wrote a heartfelt response for Brother Minmin and hung the letter on Xiaojiu’s neck. Holding Xiaojiu, he went to the east room and exclaimed, "JiaoJiao, I also have an eagle!"

He was going to use Xiaojiu to send the letter to Brother Minmin!

Gu Jiao found this amusing and patted his little head, saying, "XiaoJiu has never been to Liang Country and doesn’t know the way."

Besides, wouldn’t the letter fly away if it was left hanging like this on its neck?

How could this child be so playful?

Xiaojiu was no longer a fledgling, it was a true Hai Dongqing eagle. It didn’t understand what its little master wanted it to do and stared in confusion with its pair of eagle eyes.

"Uh, alright then," Little Jingkong was a bit disappointed. If he could use the eagle, his letter could especially fly very fast, and Brother Minmin would receive his letter in two days!

"Can I use the Eight Hundred Li Express?"

He really wished Brother Minmin could get his reply faster!

Gu Jiao looked at him and said, "You can’t use the Eight Hundred Li Express for ordinary letters."

Little Jingkong tilted his head and said, "But, but, I used it last time! I sent a letter to my master. Brother-in-law went with me and he sent it using the Eight Hundred Li Express!"

This little guy must have been fooled by Xiao Liulang.

Well, since Xiao Liulang was her husband, she decided not to expose him.

Gu Jiao then said, "That’s because Brother Minmin is not in Zhan Country, the Eight Hundred Li Express from Zhan Country cannot reach Liang Country."

Little Jingkong drooped his little head, "I see."

Gu Jiao looked at the little one’s downcast demeanor and couldn’t help but feel a little sorry. After thinking for a moment, she said, "How about this, we’ll go to the Imperial Palace tomorrow to meet Grandmother and ask if she has any official letters that are being sent to Liang Country soon. The official letters deliver much quicker than ordinary ones. If there are, we can include your letter."

"Okay!" Little Jingkong immediately turned happy again!

The next day after Little Jingkong finished his classes at Guozijian, Gu Jiao picked him up and took him to the Imperial Palace.

Gu Xiaoshun and Gu Yan had to study their crafts, so they did not come along.

Little Jingkong saw a red wax seal on the envelope of the letter Minmin sent to him, and asked Brother Xiaoshun to make one for him too.
