At this time, the carriage had slowly entered a small town with bluestone roads.
The sounds of vendors selling morning tea, the aroma of steamed buns fresh out of the oven, and people chatting and laughing can be heard all together.
The silent atmosphere along the way was instantly broken by the bustling streets, adding a bit of peace and warmth to the atmosphere.
Ru Liu was afraid that Li Sisi would continue to ask questions, so she quickly said, "Stop the car. I'm going to buy some buns."
"Whoa--" The carriage stopped in the middle of the road.
Ru Liu hurriedly jumped off the carriage and bought a few baskets of buns from the bun shop next to it.
He handed the bun in his hand to Rufeng and said, "This is Jiangling Town. I'm going to find a place to rest and then go find a doctor for Miss Sisi."
The carriage slowly found a place to stop at the corner of the street.
Seeing Ruliu leave, Li Sisi looked at Rufeng and asked, "Did you really leave Xiao Yunchen there?"
Rufeng said honestly, "That should be the case. The master only asked me to be responsible for the girl's safety, and Ruliu took care of everything else."
Zheng Hongye, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly spoke up: "You guessed right. The Censor was detained in the government office by Prefect Zhang. When they broke into the prison, we originally wanted to rescue him together, but the Censor sacrificed himself to save me and became a hostage in Prefect Zhang's hands."
When Li Sisi heard this, her heart sank, and her feelings of uneasiness and anxiety intensified.
No, she has to go back and rescue Xiao Yunchen!
suddenly.
Zheng Hongye spat out a mouthful of black blood with a "Puff!" sound.
Li Sisi was shocked: "What's wrong with you?"
Zheng Hongye raised his hand to wipe the corner of his mouth and smiled bitterly: "Zhang Zhifu gave me a chronic poison."
Zhang Zhifu and he were classmates and both pledged allegiance to the Fifth Prince.
However, he did not expect that when he became an outcast in the eyes of the Fifth Prince, it was his classmate Zhang Zhifu who poisoned him.
Zheng Hongye felt a surge of regret in his heart. He was so blind that he mistook fish eyes for pearls. He loyally did so many shameful things for the fifth prince.
Just as Xiao Yunchen said, once they enter the capital, the Fifth Prince will definitely put all the blame on him.
Now he has become a discarded child in that man's eyes, with no way out.
But he was unwilling to accept this! He was unwilling to accept this ending!
If he could do it again, if he had another chance, he would definitely not be so loyal to the Fifth Prince again!
Li Sisi didn't expect that after all these hardships, this would be the outcome?
Zheng Hongye had been poisoned, so what about Xiao Yunchen, who was standing on the opposite side? Wasn't his situation even more dangerous?
Li Sisi hurriedly lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage.
But Qingxuan's scabbard was pressed in front of her: "Miss Sisi, you'd better go back and stay here honestly. Don't even think about escaping."
Li Sisi explained: "I'm not trying to escape. I just want to go back to find Xiao Yunchen. He's in a very dangerous situation right now."
"The young master has instructed us to take good care of the girl. She doesn't need to worry about his affairs." Qing Lian walked out from the side and said loudly to Li Sisi.
Li Sisi looked at him unhappily and asked, "Aren't you worried about him? How could you leave him alone in such a dangerous place?"
Qingxuan's tone remained unchanged as usual as he explained in a cold voice, "Qingyan and the others will stay there. Our duty is to protect Miss Sisi and Lord Zheng and escort you two back to the capital safely."
At this time, Ruliu had already returned.
Seeing the postures of several people, he thought that Li Sisi was trying to escape and was caught again, and he couldn't help but frown.
His voice grew colder. "The accommodation has been arranged. Miss Sisi, please return to the carriage. You have been ill all the way here, and have delayed us for a long time. If you delay the important matters ordered by the young master, it will also affect the important affairs of the court!"
Qing Xuan sheathed his sword, his voice still cold: "Please get in the carriage."
Li Sisi's body had not recovered yet. The system only activated the life-saving mechanism, but the root cause of her illness was not eliminated.
She angrily returned to the carriage and sat down, and the carriage started again.
The system suddenly sounded, "Ding! The host is still ill. Would you like to redeem the pills for the cure?"
Li Sisi looked at her rapidly decreasing health points and replied indifferently, "No change."
Ever since she met Xiao Yunchen, her life value has not increased but decreased. She had more than 80 years of life value left before, but now she only has more than 50 years!
When Nian Nian met Xiao Yunyu, the system points pool expanded to 1000 years, and her health value increased rapidly.
After she met Xiao Yunchen, the system points pool was expanded through her insistence, but with a strange bug.
Moreover, the task of sticking with Xiao Yunchen to prolong his life was forced to end, and his health points dropped rapidly!
Nian Nian's health value has many zeros at the end. Her health value has many zeros at the beginning!
The system continued to suggest, "I think the host should take good care of himself in his current situation, then go find Xiao Yunchen, find him, and lock him in as a capture target. This way, the host's health will quickly recover."
[No!] Li Sisi thought and refused, "Once you bind a target, it's for life. I want to bind my future husband! That way my health will keep increasing!"
The system voice was puzzled and shocked. [Host, are you still thinking about Pei Yanli? No! He doesn't deserve it!]
The system's electronic voice took on an anxious tone. "Trust me! Seriously! I'm a high-quality strategy system! What kind of men haven't I seen? I've worked with quite a few hosts. As for men, you can find them anytime you want! But life is precious!"
[My hosts have taken in many men in the past, but those who don't trust their hosts and abandon them on their own accord like Pei Yanli can be used as tools to accumulate health points, but forget about spending your whole life with them!]
