Chapter 225: You can’t go to Baicheng!
Xiangying raised her eyelashes and looked at him blankly.
Jie Chen avoided her gaze and looked at the snowflakes falling not far away.
There was endless white all around, and the cold wind was howling.
Ever since she came back last time, Jie Chen has deliberately avoided contact between the two of them.
Hearing what he said, Xiangying was distracted for a moment.
She took a moment to calm down and said, "I see. I am being nosy. Don't worry, there won't be a next time."
After saying that, she turned and left.
When the Sixth Prince came back with the gold, he only saw Xiangying's back walking away quickly.
He frowned and raised his voice: "Why did you run away? You are not going to deny it, are you? Xiangying, come back here!"
"Stop making noise!" Xie Chen snorted coldly, leaving the Sixth Prince stunned.
The Sixth Prince looked at Jie Chen in disbelief.
How dare this kid be so mean to him?
Aren’t you the one who never resists no matter how hard you try?
Xie Chen's eyes were as cold as a knife: "If you make trouble again, you will go to Baicheng by yourself."
After saying that, Xie Chen jumped on his horse and left.
After a while, Qi Fengyi came carrying ten bundles of firewood and threw them directly into the arms of the Sixth Prince.
With a cold face, he took the gold bag from his hand and turned to leave.
The Sixth Prince almost couldn't hold on and asked his guards to come and help.
He called out to Qi Fengyi: "Wait!"
"Is there anything else?" Qi Fengyi stared at him with an unfriendly look.
Just now, after their eldest princess came back, her face looked unhappy. She must have been bullied by the Sixth Prince.
Qi Fengyi naturally didn't have a good face towards him either.
The Sixth Prince frowned: "Didn't Xiangying say that it should be given separately? Now that I give it all at once, she won't ask me to give her gold again, right?"
Qi Fengyi said impatiently: "The princess didn't say anything. If you are willing to give it, go find her yourself."
After saying that, he turned and left.
The Sixth Prince kicked the snow on the ground in anger.
Both of them are like people who have eaten gunpowder. Xiangying bullied him, Jiechen also bullied him, and now a small prisoner dares to look down on him.
Who did he offend?
The Sixth Prince had a cold face as he brought the firewood onto the carriage and asked the guards to light it. Soon they felt warm.
Ever since Jie Chen said that, Xiangying never left the carriage again.
However, every once in a while, pirates and exiled prisoners would take turns to come to her carriage to keep warm.
Everyone can also get a bowl of hot ginger soup.
Xiangying huddled in space to farm. She had just harvested a crop of big cherries and was now eating them to her heart's content.
The space is like spring all year round with suitable temperature, especially in the planting layer, where the temperature will be adjusted at any time according to the type of crops.
Xiangying was busy running around, but he didn't forget to reclassify everything.
After doing all this, she went to take a shower.
It would be strange if she wasn't sad considering how Jie Chen treated her.
But Xiangying also came to terms with it.
It’s good that Jie Chen can draw a clear line between the two. After all, they are not on the same path.
Xiangying decided to focus on collecting supplies.
She walked to the location leading to the seventeenth floor on the sixteenth floor to see what the conditions were for unlocking the new floor.
Unexpectedly, this time the space asked for an exorbitant amount of jades, asking for two hundred thousand jade stones!
Screen display: [86192/200000]
In front is the total amount of jade already in Xiangying's space.
If calculated by the piece, then she would have to stock up too much!
Fortunately, the next stop is White City, so she can see if she can loot something.
Xiangying came out of the space, but found that the carriage had stopped.
A pirate sat up to keep warm, rubbing his hands and saying, "The deputy general picked up a frozen man ahead. It seems he escaped from Baicheng."
Tao Xue was puzzled: "It's freezing outside, Baicheng should be safe, what happened that made us have to escape?"
"I don't know. The deputy general has already sent the man to the carriage and called a military doctor to see him."
Xiangying was curious and flew over with a drone to investigate the situation.
Her drone approached Jie Chen's carriage and heard the panicked voice of the military doctor inside.
"This is a plague! Deputy General, if the plague is rampant in White City, we must not stop there!"
The sour scholar was shocked: "This person is also infected with the plague? Then we have to throw him away quickly!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the military doctor suddenly exclaimed: "He is dead!"
Xie Chen frowned and felt the pulse on the man's neck. After confirming that he was dead, he said in a deep voice, "Throw him away and find a place to bury him."
The military doctor bowed and said, "This man only said one thing, that the situation in White City is not optimistic. He would rather risk freezing to death and run out, which means that the city is already full of epidemics."
"Deputy General, you must change your route."
Xie Chen took out the map and studied it with a serious look on his face.
"The nearest town here is Baicheng. If we go further, it will take more than ten days to reach the next town. Even if we move quickly, it will still take seven or eight days."
"It's freezing cold today. We haven't received much supplies in Meicheng, and there's not much food left. If we don't stop at Baicheng, the entire team won't be able to make it to the capital alive."
There were so many exiled prisoners, two of them froze to death today, let alone the days to come?
I don’t know when this heavy snow will stop.
Everyone sighed in worry.
Xie Chen thought about it, called a scout, and ordered him to ride as fast as possible to Baicheng to find out the situation.
And tonight, they had to rest temporarily in a simple and abandoned post station.
It is called a post station, but in fact it is just a thatched hut.
Because it has been abandoned for a long time, it has not been properly repaired.
The only advantage is that it can still block the wind.
Xie Chen made all the exiled prisoners squeeze in, with people standing next to each other, and they could only sleep sitting up.
Xiangying and her friends had a carriage, so they didn't have to squeeze in.
She knew that the situation was not optimistic, so she took the initiative to prepare three large pots of mutton soup and invited everyone to eat.
This time, the Sixth Prince also came with a bowl.
He stood in line obediently in the cold wind, and remained indifferent even when the prisoners around him gave him strange looks.
It’s because the mutton soup tastes so delicious!
Xiangying was really generous. Not only did he put a few slices of meat in each person's bowl, he also gave them two palm-sized sesame buns so that they could eat them with soup.
After eating this bowl of rice, even the coldest snow will melt!
The Sixth Prince and Xiang Qianqian were queuing up. The Seventh Princess passed by and stopped immediately.
"Hey! Xiang Qianqian, you also want big sister to give you broth? You are so careless. Have you forgotten how you treated us before?"
Xiang Qianqian bit her lip: "I came here to accompany the Sixth Prince, why are you so worried?"
The Sixth Prince looked back, glanced at her from head to toe, and said, "You should get back on the carriage first."
Xiang Qianqian was stunned: "Your Highness!"
She was about to cry.
She originally wanted to ask the Sixth Prince for some mutton soup, so why did the Sixth Prince let her go now?
The Sixth Prince's eyes were cold: "Go back, Xiangying will probably not give us food while you are here."
No matter how unwilling Xiang Qianqian was, she could only stomp her feet and leave.
The Seventh Princess burst into laughter: "It's what you deserve. What did you do to us before?"
When Xiang Qianqian passed by Xiangli, she suddenly stopped.
The Sixth Prince is unreliable, but her brother, the Crown Prince, is known to be soft-hearted.
She immediately looked at Xiangli with red eyes: "Brother Crown Prince, can you give me a bowl of soup?"
It snowed here today!! Wuhu, I woke up to see snow outside, I was so happy~~
