After the enchanted mirror was shattered, the strength and youth that had been sucked away from Ruyi returned. Her cheeks suddenly became plump. She turned around twice, clenched her hands, and breathed a sigh of relief.
When it was almost dawn, Qin Xiaocai came back after a long journey.
"How's it going? What clues can the store provide?" Ruyi asked.
Qin Xiao shook his head and said: "There is nothing. We moved quickly enough. I didn't say anything and went directly with the elite soldiers. But the store was empty, not to mention people, not even furniture or objects could be found.
"
Ruyi muttered: "Mr. Ji, this old fox is too cunning. He will run away after setting up a plan, and will never have a direct conflict with anyone. He knows that he will suffer a loss in a face-to-face confrontation, so he always plays tricks."
"There is a first time, and there will be a second time. He may not give up. I think we should not take shortcuts in the future. It is safer to go to a city with a lot of people." Qin Xiao suggested, "Of course.
, it is best not to stay too long, rest for at most one day and then leave. In this way, even if Mr. Ji wants to harm others, there is nothing he can do. Once we leave the border of the Celestial Empire and arrive at Rongzhu, we should have nothing to worry about."
At this point, Qin Xiao's eyes suddenly became complicated. The meltdown has always been an inescapable nightmare for the two of them, but now that a powerful enemy appears, they need to use this nightmare as shelter.
.It’s really unspeakable helplessness.
They each went back to take a short rest. Fifty elite soldiers were already on standby at the palace, waiting for the two of them to have lunch before they could go on their way.
It's still the same front hall, the same people, but the atmosphere is slightly different.
The Fuyin couple are not fools. They heard some noises last night when ghosts and wolves howled. But they did not dare to ask questions for fear of getting into trouble. The princess could not afford to offend them. For them, they could send the princess away safely.
Walking is more important than anything else.
Therefore, apart from some pleasantries, the couple said nothing more. Apart from the exchange of cheers, there was no other sound during the dinner.
The two young masters of the Wang family are young men who don't know how to feel sad. They have smiles on their faces. You take my meat and I take your food.
Ruyi looked at the two of them and smiled unconsciously. This kind of innocence of children is very valuable. I really hope that this happiness can stay with them for a longer time. Grow up later! If you grow up later, you will be exposed to it later.
When you become an adult, you will feel the powerlessness and helplessness later.
As for Wang Jinzhi, she buried herself behind the broken hair as usual, with her head sinking so low that it almost touched the table. Ruyi knew that after yesterday's farce, Wang Jinzhi was sitting there
She must be on pins and needles, but she had no excuse to leave the table. It was really worse than death.
"Is the princess's health really safe? She has just recovered from her illness, so why not rest at home for a few more days." It was different from the sincere attitude when she first met Ruyi, Mrs. Wang's tone at this time
It's more of a courtesy.
"No need. I'm in good health and I'm fine with any minor illnesses or disasters. After all, I have something important going on, and Rongzhu has set a time limit. It's better to arrive early than late. We'll set off after dinner." Ruyi.
Refuse to stay.
"Then the princess and the general should eat more!" Mr. Wang stood up and kept picking up food for the two of them.
After the meal, Fuyin and his wife ordered some specialties from the polder for the princess and sent them to the carriage. The family lined up in a row as they had when they arrived, waving goodbye to Ruyi and his entourage.
