The shopkeeper nodded, ordered the waiter to go to the kitchen to prepare food for Feng Xizi and the others, and then went back to his counter to calculate the accounts.
"Miss, this place is only fifty miles away from Yunzhou City. Let's sleep here tonight and head to Yunzhou early tomorrow morning." Qiyu knew that Feng Xizi was in a hurry, but he couldn't ignore her health at the moment.
Feng Xizi breathed calmly and said softly: "Qiyu, how long have we been out?"
"Eighteen days."
"Eighteen days...it has been eighteen days..." Quietly closing her eyes, Feng Xizi leaned half on Tinghe's shoulder, and said slowly: "Second brother has been trapped in Yunzhou for more than a month, and the Feng family is here
Business between the north and the south has also been suppressed, and if we delay for a moment longer, we will be in danger."
"But miss, even if we go to Yunzhou now, we can't save the second young master." Tinghe did not forget that Feng Yue, one of the masters of the Feng family, was imprisoned by the emperor's order. Even if the Feng family has
Even with great power, one cannot refute the emperor's will.
"There is no need to save him. As long as we get to Yunzhou, the second brother will be absolutely safe." Yu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and Feng Xizi slowly raised her lips, half-smiling but not smiling, bitter and determined.
"This slave doesn't understand..."
"What the young lady means is that His Majesty the Emperor never really wanted to deal with the second young master." Qiyu looked at Feng Xi's face under the brim of his purple hat and sighed softly: "What he wants is to force the young lady to leave the imperial capital. As long as the young lady leaves.
, it’s like reaching an agreement with him. If he gets what he wants, he will naturally let the second young master go."
"You mean..." Tinghe thought for a while, and suddenly an idea flashed: "You mean, the emperor wants the young lady to leave so that the prince can have the opportunity to marry Princess Loulan?!"
"Tinghe!" Qiyu glared at her displeasedly and scolded her for her impulsiveness.
Ting He was frightened by Qi Yu, and when he looked at Feng Xi Zi, she had already opened her eyes, her pupils were blank, emotionless and heartless.
Knowing that what he said wrongly had hurt Feng Xizi's weakness, Tinghe quickly admitted his mistake: "Miss, I didn't mean it on purpose."
"It doesn't matter." Feng Xizi supported herself with one arm. Under her long eyelashes, her pupils were deep and her lips and teeth slowly opened and closed. "He can marry whoever he wants. Originally, the relationship between us was just because of each other."
The interests have only been combined together. Now that these interests are broken, we are also broken. He is still his prince, and I will still be my Feng Xizi."
"Miss……"
Looking at Feng Xizi with some worry, Tinghe hid the words he was about to blurt out in his heart. He quietly turned his eyes and saw that Qiu Yu was also clearly helpless.
Miss, I thought I was still the same lady as before, but little did I know that things had changed a long time ago. Miss Feng Xizi was right, but Miss could never be the same Feng Xizi who was so radiant when facing the emperor. And all of this
Everything is because of the young lady's marriage, which even she herself cannot control...
When the three of them fell into silence for a while, the shopkeeper and the waiter brought their dishes and rice, "Here, please be objective!"
The fragrant green vegetables are cooked just right, which shows that the chef of this Yunlai Inn is a first-class expert.
Feng Xizi couldn't smell these smells in the past few days, and she would start retching after a little while. After all, these dishes were really light and stimulated her appetite a little.
Tinghe put all the dishes into Feng Xizi's bowl, and when she saw Feng Xizi finally holding up her chopsticks and swallowing the vegetables and rice in small mouths, she and Qiyu both breathed a sigh of relief.
