Chapter 259: Leaving Liaodu

Toya looked at the two of them with envy. She heard her father tell Xiao Yonghan's identity last night. She always thought that noble men were somewhat proud, but when she met Xiao Yonghan, she realized that everything was just a cloud in front of the one she loved.

Think about how stupid I was before, loving so humblely, putting him first in everything, but as a result, my infatuation was always betrayed by my infatuation!

Daiduo may not love anyone, he only loves his country and his throne.

After a while, the refugees finally finished leaving, and they lined up waiting to leave the city.

While waiting, Mo Ruxue asked: "How long does it take to walk from here to the border of Yan State?"

"Didn't you go there? It's only been three months and you forgot about it?" Mr. Cao replied: "The carriage is relatively slow. It takes about twenty days to go!"

It's not that she forgot, but it was snowing all over the sky when she arrived, and it was dark all day long. She couldn't tell whether it was day or night.

It was so cold that she didn't want to move all day long and huddled in the carriage every day, so she didn't know how long she had been walking.

"It takes so long to walk? I didn't feel anything when I came here, I just felt cold."

Xiao Yonghan held her hand and said, "Do you still feel cold now?"

"It's not cold, hehe, you are my personal heater!"

"Ahem, don't be so tired, okay? There are old people and children here!" Mr. Cao gave them a blank look.

Toya couldn't help but laugh: "Dad, I'm not a child anymore. I'm seventeen this year, and I'm only one year younger than Xue'er."

"No, I shouldn't be called Xue'er, I should be called cousin-in-law. My cousin and cousin-in-law have such a good relationship, I'm very envious of them."

Mo Ruxue felt embarrassed. They were all Dai Duo's concubines in the Prince's Mansion, but now she became her cousin-in-law! What a wonderful fate!

The carriage moved forward, and it was their turn to leave the city.

The groom spoke fluent Mohe and communicated with the officers and soldiers at the city gate. He took out a token in his hand. When the man saw the token, he stopped questioning him.

Just as they were preparing to set off, the leader of the city defense came back.

"Stop! Has the inside of the carriage been checked?"

The soldier hurried over and whispered something in his ear.

Who would have thought that the leader didn't buy it. He glared at the soldier fiercely and shouted: "I don't care who they are, they will be checked whenever they leave the city! If anything happens, I will bear it!"

"Yes, my subordinate will go check it out right away."

"I'll come and check it myself."

The leader opened the curtain with the portraits of Mo Ruxue and Bai Cangsheng, and looked inside. The whole carriage was filled with old men. After a closer look, they didn't look like the portraits, so they didn't have any doubts anymore.

He walked to the carriage at the back again, and the coachman quickly stopped him and said with a smile: "Sitting here is a distant relative of mine. I don't know what kind of strange disease he has. His whole body is covered in ulcers. I'm afraid."

It’s dirtying your eyes, uncle.”

"What kind of person do I have never seen before that you should worry about here?"

"Yes, yes, it's just a small worry. Please take a look."

When the curtain was opened, the leader just took one look and quickly put it down. He stood beside him and retched, and said bitterly: "That's so damn disgusting! I'm afraid this person won't survive? Pull him away quickly, pull him away."

Let’s go, don’t make me angry about your illness, and you should leave quickly!”

"Hey, okay, let's go now."

The carriage slowly passed through the city gate, and they finally came out safely!

After walking for more than two hours, the wind outside became stronger. It was indeed much colder here than in Liaodu.

The biting wind blew whistling, whining, and howling like ghosts and wolves. Fortunately, the carriage's compartment was sealed with two layers of cowhide, and the curtains were separated by heavy mattresses, so no wind could blow in at all.

Mo Ruxue nestled in Xiao Yonghan's arms, listening to the wind outside, and felt inexplicably safe.

A small charcoal stove was used to heat hot water in the carriage, and in this damn weather, people didn't even have the desire to chat.

"Husband, where is the bamboo sword? Why don't you see the bamboo sword?"

Xiao Yonghan tightened the blanket on her body: "He is leaving first on horseback to explore the situation ahead. We will meet in the small town ahead later."

"Oh, well, it's such a cold day, how cold it must be to ride a horse! Poor Bamboo Sword, doesn't he even have to drink hot water?"

Mr. Cao raised his eyebrows and said, "That's not the case! The wind outside is like a knife. I'm afraid your hands will be frozen, right?"

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Toya's eyes fluctuated, looking at the bad weather outside through the gap in the window in a daze.

Mr. Cao glanced at Mo Ruxue appreciatively, and Mo Ruxue winked at him mischievously.

Xiao Yonghan looked at the interaction between the two people, then looked at Toya's actions, smiled slightly, and felt reassured.

Zhujian is his most trusted subordinate, and his character is beyond description.

It's just that his and Toya's identities don't seem to be a good match, and he doesn't think highly of these two people anyway.

Mo Ruxue broke away from Xiao Yonghan's arms: "The water is boiling. I'll make tea for everyone. It's time for me to move."

She poured two more glasses for the elder brother who was driving the carriage outside. Seeing that all the people in the carriage had higher status than her, forget it, she didn't dare to order them around, so she should carry them out herself!

Just as she took a step towards the door, her arm was grabbed by Xiao Yonghan, and he asked: "What are you doing out there? Sit down and I will carry it out for them."

Xiao Yonghan took the tea cup from her hand: "You are weak and the wind is strong outside. Just call me if you need anything. Go sit down and drink some tea to warm yourself up."

"Hehe, okay, I will listen to my husband, thank you for your hard work, Your Highness, Prince Luo!" Mo Ruxue's heart felt as sweet as honey, and she teased mischievously.

Xiao Yonghan looked back at her, the tenderness and sweetness in his eyes too thick to be melted away.

He turned around and went out to deliver tea. The two people outside were so surprised that they were speechless. The master actually served them tea himself. They were so frightened that they almost spilled the tea!

The two of them didn't dare to let Xiao Yonghan wait for a long time in the cold wind. They didn't care whether it was hot or not, so they drank the entire cup of tea in one gulp.

Until Xiao Yonghan entered the carriage again, neither of them could recover. One of them quietly asked: "Just now, the master actually served us tea and water in person. Is this true?"

"How about I slap you?"

"piss off!"

Mo Ruxue was listening to the conversation between the two outside in the carriage, looked at Xiao Yonghan and joked: "How does it feel to be condescending? Do you feel wronged? If you feel wronged, I will lend you my shoulder to lean on."

"Am I that hypocritical?" Xiao Yonghan said angrily.

"No, my husband is the best! I was just a little arrogant and a little bitchy in the past, haha."

Toya covered his mouth and laughed out loud. It can be imagined that this dignified Prince of Yan Kingdom must have been eaten to death by Mo Ruxue.

She has never seen a man who dotes on his wife so much. Mo Ruxue's face is filled with a happy smile, that smile goes straight to the bottom of his eyes, and he must be very sweet in his heart!

Seeing Mo Ruxue enjoying Xiao Yonghan's extreme pampering, Toya finally understood why she tried her best to dissuade her the day before yesterday when she knew she was going to meet Dai Duo, saying that she was not worthy.

Mr. Cao rolled his eyes at them and said to Toya: "Don't imitate that Mo girl in the future. She has no integrity at all. She laughs and laughs every day. She is a crazy girl!"

Mo Ruxue glanced at Mr. Cao but did not quarrel with him. She smiled and said to Toya: "Toya, when we return to Yan Kingdom, I will introduce you to a sister. Her name is Murong Yan, she was raised by the master since she was a child.

Orphan girl, she is quite fun, let me tell you..."

She opened up the chatterbox and told Tuoya the stories about her and Murong Yan. Tuoya was stunned for a while. She really didn't expect there to be such an upright woman in the world!

Especially when she heard Murong Yan grabbing Ouyang Xun by the collar and asking him if he liked her, Toya was shocked and speechless!

She likes this woman's character!

Toya looked at Mr. Cao in shock and said, "Dad, was this girl Murong really raised by you?"

"Ah...well...even though I'm not raised like a girl, it's not too bad after all, right?"

Mr. Cao answered carefully, fearing that Toya would dislike him as a father who could not take care of others.

Toya smiled and said, "Haha, daddy is much more interesting than I thought. I suddenly look forward to the future."
