Lin Xu'an took out the purse from his arms and placed it on the table. "Thank you for the compliment, old man. I just ran a little faster. Here is your purse."
"Okay, okay, thank you for your help, young man." Bai Qingwu showed a long-lost smile on his face. One reason was because the shop owner gave him wontons after he entered the shop and explained the situation. The other reason was because of the young man in front of him who saw injustice and helped him.
Even though he had experienced betrayal, and even been stabbed by his closest relatives, he was still happy. He was happy that there were people willing to show kindness to him, a stranger, and he was in high spirits.
"Eanzi, would you like to have a bowl of wontons?" Ye Bufan came over and asked after the two of them finished talking.
Lin Xu'an first glanced at Bai Qingwu, then nodded, "I only had one pancake this morning, so I'll trouble you, Dad."
"We are one family but we have different opinions." After receiving an affirmative answer, Ye Bufan nodded happily. He was quite satisfied with this son-in-law. Of course, he was firm in his position that his daughter was the best.
Bai Qingwu ate the wontons slowly. He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had eaten a meal slowly since he joined the army. Since he was settled in this small town, as long as he didn't think about the past, his life returned to normal.
"Young man, see you again if we have the chance." Bai Qingwu asked the price of the wontons, left ten copper coins, and said politely.
But no one expected that the next time would come so soon and so suddenly, so suddenly that the situation became tense.
When a person is unlucky, even drinking water will make them grit their teeth. At this moment, Ye Wanwan had to believe this sentence. Who can tell her that going out for a walk, falling and rolling around is fine, but also hearing a big secret that she shouldn't have heard? There is no need to go to such great lengths to save her life.
Ye Wanwan, who was squatting behind the low trees, had numb hands and feet, but she dared not breathe. What she heard was the royal dispute that she least wanted to be involved in. She just wanted to live a peaceful and prosperous life and didn't want to get involved.
"Master, the emperor said that he wants to let the fifth princess marry to Maple Country to settle the dispute. This is the letter from the fifth princess." Feng Er said with some fear. The fifth princess's biological mother died young, and she was raised by the queen. Sending her to marry is no different from stabbing the queen in the back.
Rong Chen opened the letter. The handwriting was still beautiful, but there were some smudges of ink, and it was not difficult to see that they were tear stains. How desperate must she have been when she wrote this letter?
"You Tang asks my Royal Brother how he is. Please do not disturb me. As the Princess Darong, I should stand up in times of crisis and do my best to help. I also ask my Royal Brother not to worry about me and to serve the Queen Mother more often in the future to show my filial piety."
After reading the entire letter, a trace of anger flashed across Rong Chen's face and he tore up the letter directly. He could think of the girl who grew up being spoiled, how she persuaded him to go, and how she wrote this letter.
Rong Chen's mask, which he was used to wearing for a long time, was a little cracked, but it was only a fleeting moment. As the emperor's order, they, as his subjects, could only be grateful, right?
He has traveled to many places to gain experience and escaped death countless times. That is what he deserves as the crown prince. When it comes to Rong Youtang, outsiders say that she enjoys the glory of a princess. Isn't that what she should do?
But You Tang was so innocent. This defeat was clearly caused by the man who wanted to drag General Bai down from the altar. Now, an innocent woman had to be used to smooth over the consequences of losing several cities in a row.
"Why did Feng Nation take action? Why did Uncle Bai lose the battle? Doesn't he know? He's really old and his mind is confused."
Feng Er agreed in his heart, but he didn't dare to say such outrageous words himself, and he also had to persuade others not to say them. "Master, be careful with your words."
"I lost my composure." Rong Chen sighed, jumped up from the big rock he was sitting on, drew his sword, and in his unrestrained and free-spirited manner, a hint of hostility was visibly stained with it.
Ye Wanwan didn't move at all, and she wasn't in the mood to appreciate it at all. If she was just a casual spectator, she would cheer loudly and enjoy it, but she wasn't like that. She was just a poor person who curled up, not daring to be discovered, and waiting for them to leave.
What kind of good person would talk about national affairs in the mountains? He's a prince, and he didn't stay in the palace, but ran to this mountain. Isn't this harming others? Poor her, she fell and rolled around, and just woke up, she encountered this incident again.
"Is there really no way? Handsome guys and beautiful girls, I really can't sit here any longer." Seeing that they were reluctant to leave, Ye Wanwan began to ask the system for help. She would earn as many points as she could, as long as she could spare her life.
[Hold on a little longer, maybe you'll be gone soon, just hang in there.] Xiao Shuai and Xiao Mei were both worried, sweating for Ye Wanwan and afraid for themselves, but there was nothing they could do but cheer her up.
"Who, who is there?" Rong Chen, who was dancing with the sword, glanced at a piece of cloth, raised his sword and suddenly stabbed towards the bushes where Ye Wanwan was.
Ye Wanwan closed her eyes. She thought that if she went out, she might still be alive. Otherwise, she would die without a sound. "Hero, please show some mercy. I have something to say."
"Who are you? Why are you here?" Rong Chen asked in a cold voice, revealing a murderous aura.
After Feng Er shouted "Protect the master", Ye Wanwan, who was alone and had no combat ability, was surrounded as if facing a great enemy.
"Brothers, I just fell and rolled down the hillside." Ye Wanwan said desperately. She couldn't hide this kind of thing. What she heard couldn't be hidden at all. God damn it, it was so deadly!
She had no martial arts skills, and no one would believe her if she said she came here halfway and suddenly appeared here. But she didn't reveal their identities, so this group of people should understand what she meant.
Rong Chen moved lightly with his lotus steps, and the sword stopped directly in front of Ye Wanwan. Seeing that the person did not move, he finally stopped. He was not a bloodthirsty person, but those words could not be heard by those who had ulterior motives.
"Master, just to be on the safe side, let's kill him." Feng Er was a little surprised and walked forward, intending to do it on his behalf.
Ye Wanwan quickly raised her hands and began to deceive, "Killing innocent people indiscriminately is not what a gentleman does. I am also a citizen of Darong. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince loves the people like his own children. How can you instigate me like this?"
"Then tell me, why are you here alone? Why don't you say anything when you see someone, but hide there and eavesdrop?" Feng Er scolded.
The unlucky Ye Wanwan could only think about what to say to get out of this situation within a limited time. After all, this was an evil imperial society. If she said something wrong by accident, all nine generations of her clan would be hanged on the wall.
