Chapter 322: See Through a Layer of Skin
The horses' hooves raised up clouds of dust, and among the many horses, the black horse in the lead was the most eye-catching.
The black horse's coat was as shiny as silk, with only its hooves showing white. Its gallop was like thunder, and its speed was like lightning. If the rider hadn't been trying to control it, it would have left everyone far behind.
This horse is Xiao Jingfan's favorite horse, named Wushuang, and was given to him by the late emperor.
The person on the horse is naturally Xiao Jingfan.
Today he rarely wore a white robe, covered with a red cloak with silver embroidery and dark patterns. His handsome eyebrows were relaxed, lacking some of the majesty of an emperor, but with some of the youthful vigor.
Following closely behind him were Lu Fei and Zhou Yuande.
The two men also disguised themselves, one as an attendant and the other as a butler.
It was the first time that Chu Liuzheng knew that Eunuch Zhou's riding skills were so good, and he couldn't help but look at this fat eunuch with admiration.
As expected of the emperor's top official, he does have some real skills.
After that came the group of people who disguised themselves as guards and Feng Jing, the accompanying doctor.
He was pulled out of bed by Lu Fei in the middle of the night. Thinking that it was an enemy coming to visit him, he raised his hand and threw a handful of poison powder at him.
If he hadn't poisoned and detoxified it quickly, Lu Fei's coffin would have been buried underground.
Don't poison someone or something if you have a disagreement with them. Don't be too cruel.
The flying yellow sand is a bit choking.
Chu Liuzheng turned his gaze away and asked Chen Xing, who was also looking outside with an envious look on his face, "How long will it take to get to Xiancheng?"
Chen Xing lowered the curtain and said, "If we keep traveling like this, it will take about three more days."
Chu Liuzheng's face suddenly turned bitter.
She actually had to be tossed around like this for three days!
Everyone is falling apart!!
Chen Xing smiled and hugged her arm: "If you feel bored, I can tell you a story."
【That’s not necessary.】
Chu Liuzheng poked her cheek and said, "If you want to ride a horse, go ahead."
Everyone was out riding horses, and Chen Xing was indeed itching to ride. However, she remembered her mission and shook her head. "It's dusty when riding horses, so I'll just stay in the carriage and talk to my sister."
Chu Liuzheng appreciated the kindness.
She reached out and pushed the girl next to her: "I want to take a nap. It's not easy for me to stretch my legs while you sit here."
Chen Xing: “…”
She wrinkled her nose in pretended displeasure, but went out riding very honestly.
Miyue was driving outside. When he saw her jump on the horse, he couldn't help but glance at the carriage behind him and asked, "Is Sister Liu Zheng asleep?"
"Yeah." Chen Xing responded, pulled the reins, squeezed his legs against the horse's belly, and galloped towards the front.
Have fun.
Miyue shook his head helplessly, pulled the reins, and tried to steer the carriage as steadily as possible.
Xiao Jingfan had only one request for this trip, which was to get there as conveniently and quickly as possible, so Zhou Yuande offered the option of riding a horse.
But he didn't expect that Xiao Jingfan would bring Chu Liuzheng with him on this trip, so he naturally forgot to ask Chu Liuzheng if he could ride a horse.
So, when everyone was riding on their horses, Chu Liuzheng, who was temporarily pulled over, was still staring at the horse in front of him, very worried about being kicked.
Lu Fei suggested finding someone to take Chu Liuzheng on horseback riding.
Among the people accompanying them, apart from Chu Liuzheng, only Chen Xing and Si Yue were women.
Chen Xing volunteered, but unfortunately, they had only ridden for less than an hour when Chu Liuzheng's inner thighs were rubbed and his butt was sore. If they continued to ride at this pace, Chu Liuzheng would be exhausted by the time they reached his destination.
Xiao Jingfan had no choice but to ask Zhou Yuande to buy a carriage.
Although Eunuch Zhou was already busy buying a good carriage and wanted to save Chu Liuzheng from suffering, how could the carriage bought temporarily in the town be as stable as the royal carriage?
The journey was so fast and bumpy that Chu Liuzheng finally couldn't help vomiting.
Once he started vomiting, it was unstoppable. If it weren't for the pills Feng Jing gave him, Chu Liuzheng would still be vomiting.
She fell asleep in the carriage and had many bizarre and colorful dreams.
There is a big hall and a stream of light.
In that light there is...
"Sister Liu Zheng? Sister?" Chen Xing gently pushed the person on the bed and called out, "Get up and eat."
Chu Liuzheng slowly opened her eyes and felt the bed curtains above her head swaying. She propped herself up on the bed and looked around: "Are we at the inn yet?"
"It's already two o'clock. Sister is really sleepy." Chen Xing took her coat and said, "The guys said the night market in the west of the city is very lively, with lots of food and entertainment. The young master plans to go out for a walk and have dinner outside tonight."
【Shopping is great! 】
Chu Liuzheng's eyes lit up, he quickly put on his shoes and got out of bed, tidied up a little, and went to the next room with Chen Xing.
Xiao Jingfan had just taken a shower, and there was still some moisture in the room.
He was standing by the window, having changed his clothes.
Her black hair was tied up with a silver crown, and she wore a moon-white robe with silver thread and dark flower patterns, which made her look slender. The jade pendant and green bamboo purse hanging on the jade belt around her waist swayed gently as she turned around, and the black soft boots embroidered with Qilin patterns on her feet looked extremely expensive.
[Tsk tsk, with that face, that figure, and that outfit, if the tyrant were to go out like this, why would we even bother visiting the night market? He'd be considered shameless if he didn't get a lick of his skin. I'm afraid he'd be showered with handkerchiefs and sachets.]
Xiao Jingfan, who was originally in a good mood: "..."
Can this woman speak?
He raised his eyebrows and said, "You seem very dissatisfied with my—ah, my attire."
[Fuck! Is my expression that obvious?]
[It's over, it's over. Two days of riding in a carriage has completely ruined my ability to control my facial expressions.]
"I dare not." Chu Liuzheng knelt down immediately.
Xiao Jingfan stared at her for a moment, then sat down on the stool and asked, holding his chin, "How do you think I should dress?"
His tone was quite gentle, not like he was angry. Chu Liuzheng raised his eyes and looked over, sincerely suggesting: "Would you like to wear a mask?"
[Blocking this evildoer's face will reduce the accident by half. ]
Xiao Jingfan: "..."
Chen Xing chimed in, "Master, Sister Liu Zheng is right. You should wear a mask. When we first arrived at the inn, two aunts wanted to be your matchmaker. If you keep going out like this, there will surely be even more aunts and aunts who want to be your matchmakers."
Zhou Yuande had felt that his master's outfit was too handsome and too likely to cause trouble, so he immediately joined in and asked Xiao Jingfan to wear a mask.
For the first time, Xiao Jingfan felt that his face was so shameful to be seen by others.
He still didn't believe it.
"I won't wear it." He grabbed the folding fan on the table, got up and went out.
Chu Liuzheng and others hurriedly followed.
A quarter of an hour later, Xiao Jingfan reluctantly took the fox mask bought by Chu Liuzheng and put it on.
In an instant, more than half of the people looking at him dropped away.
Xiao Jingfan breathed a sigh of relief.
Although no one will do anything, being stared at like a monkey really affects your mood for shopping.
It's rare to come out for a walk.
"Young Master, the fried crispy fish sold here is good, you should try it." Chu Liuzheng bought a few boxes of fried crispy fish from the stall and shared them with everyone. Of course, the first box had to be given to the boss.
Xiao Jingfan lowered his eyes and stared at the fried yellow and black fish in front of him, with no intention of reaching out to take it.
Chu Liuzheng passed it forward and tried his best to sell it: "Although it's not as good as the one made at home, it has its own unique flavor. Butler Zhou and the others all said it was good after eating it."
Xiao Jingfan looked at everyone who was eating with relish, then he picked up a small crispy fish with chopsticks and tentatively put it into his mouth.
Everyone stared at him. One advantage of having Feng Jing, the miracle doctor, accompany him was that he only had to worry about whether the food tasted good or not, and didn't have to worry about whether it was poisonous or not.
"It's too salty." Xiao Jingfan swallowed the food in his mouth and commented expressionlessly.
Upon hearing this, Chu Liuzheng immediately handed over the juice in a bamboo tube and was about to suggest going to eat fried noodles when a commotion suddenly broke out ahead.
Screams continued to be heard from the crowd.
