When Ouyang Yuqing heard Shen Yingying tell him that they had arrived at Shili Pavilion, he stopped absorbing the crystal core and slowly opened his eyes.

When Shen Yingying saw Ouyang Yuqing open his eyes, she asked him, "How does it feel to absorb the crystal core for cultivation?"

Ouyang Yuqing spread his hands and saw the crystal core that was about to become an empty core. He smiled and said, "It feels good."

"Pack your things, pack them up, we're getting off the carriage."

good……

The luxurious carriage slowly came to a stop.

A soldier driving the carriage outside shouted, "We've arrived at Shiliting!"

Upon hearing the sound, Ouyang Yuqing first pushed open the curtain covering the carriage.

He got off the carriage first.

After getting off the carriage, he waited for Shen Yingying to come out.

Shen Yingying didn't waste any time either; she got out of the carriage with her head down.

Ouyang Yuqing reached out and lifted Shen Yingying down from the carriage.

"princess……"

When Xiao Tao saw Shen Yingying, she was so excited that she ran over immediately.

Shen Yingying saw Xiao Tao smiling and asked her, "When did you arrive?"

"Your Highness, we have been waiting here for more than an hour."

You're here so early?

"We were afraid of being late and not being able to meet Your Highness, so we came a little earlier."

Xiao Tao, please stop calling us "Prince" and "Princess" from now on.

We are commoners now, so from now on you can call him Master and me Madam.

"Yes, Madam, Xiao Tao obeys."

Xiaotao, have you prepared the daily necessities I asked you to prepare?

"It's ready, madam. Two large carriages are full."

Um……

Shen Yingying glanced around the Shili Pavilion.

Because prisoners were often escorted to Shiliting for rest, there are several small stalls set up here.

Shen Yingying saw a tea stall.

She said to Ouyang Yuqing, "Let's go to that tea stall, order a pot of tea, and rest."

good……

Just as Shen Yingying was about to walk towards the tea stall, Ouyang Yuqing reached out and grasped her soft little hand.

She glanced at the small hand being held, then looked at Ouyang Yuqing.

"Is this what you're planning to stick on later?"

Well, let's just stick together for the rest of our lives.

Not too long...

Shen Yingying's lips twitched. "Isn't sticking together for a lifetime a long time?"

Are you planning to stick with me into the next life, and the life after that?

"I dare not hope for the next life, or the life after that, but you'll have to make do with this one."

Shen Yingying rolled her eyes helplessly.

She thought to herself: Where's the cold-faced prince I was promised? This is clearly a clingy, devilish man...

Seeing Shen Yingying roll her eyes, Ouyang Yuqing pursed her lips and gave a slight, mocking smile.

"Let's go, madam, to the tea stall to rest."

Actually, Shen Yingying wasn't tired sitting in the carriage, but they had to wait for the exile team.

Not only had the exile procession not arrived yet, but when they reached Shili Pavilion, they still had to meet with their relatives and friends.

For them to stand there waiting for so long, what else could it be but foolishness?

The group walked to the tea stall, and Ouyang Yuqing pulled Shen Yingying to sit down at the tea stall.

When the tea stall owner saw someone sitting at his stall, he quickly walked over to the stall.

"Sir, you need to pay for tea if you want to rest here."

Yes, I know. What kinds of tea do you have here?

"Sir, you are joking. As you know, most of the vendors here are prisoners."

I've got some really good tea, but how many people can afford to drink it?

Upon hearing the tea shop owner's words, Shen Yingying turned to Xiao Tao beside her and asked, "Is there any tea among the supplies in our vehicle?"

"Some ladies and housekeepers, fearing that their husbands and wives might be thirsty on the road and have no tea to drink, specially bought many varieties of tea from the tea shop."

Okay, then go get some tea from the car.

"It is Madam."

After Xiao Tao left, Shen Yingying said to the tea shop owner, "Boss, please prepare some hot water for us. We don't want your tea, but we'll still pay for it."
