Li Jingxing led two thousand cavalrymen, hurrying as fast as he could, and arrived at the location of the Chen family in the middle of the night.
Fu Bai was awakened by the sound of horses' hooves.
The moment he opened his eyes, 748 spoke in his mind: "Your husband is coming."
Fu Bai knew who had come, but the rest of the Chen family did not. Hearing the sound of horses' hooves in the middle of the night, they all became alert. The guards surrounded the Chen family members and waited quietly for the sound of hooves to pass.
Unexpectedly, the sound of horses' hooves grew closer and closer.
The last cavalry force of two thousand men appeared before the Chen family like a dark, ghostly mass, sending chills down their spines.
Li Jingxing rode a tall, chestnut-colored horse, his gaze sweeping over the Chen family members before finally settling on Fu Bai.
He narrowed his eyes.
His dark eyes were unfathomable, brimming with a dangerous aura.
The sound of hooves stopped, and the entire forest was so quiet that not a sound could be heard, creating a somewhat oppressive atmosphere.
Grandpa Chen and Second Grandpa Chen stood beside Grandpa Chen, feeling Li Jingxing's imposing aura, and dared not say a word.
Old Master Chen had learned from Fu Bai earlier that Li Jingxing would be catching up, so he wasn't surprised. However, when he saw the two thousand cavalrymen behind him, Old Master Chen felt a slight pain in his temples.
This is completely inexplicable now.
He sighed softly, and was about to step forward to greet Li Jingxing when he saw his carefree grandson slowly stand up and leisurely walk to Li Jingxing.
"Why are you only arriving now? I've been waiting for you for ages."
When Old Master Chen heard this, he resisted the urge to facepalm.
Listen to this, listen to this, is this even human language?
He left without saying goodbye, and when he was caught, he accused the villain first.
Even his own grandfather couldn't stand it; I don't know what the prince was thinking.
What could Li Jingxing think?
Without thinking, he stared greedily at Fu Bai's face for a long time before suddenly reaching out to Fu Bai.
Fu Bai raised an eyebrow and placed his hand on Li Jingxing's palm.
Li Jingxing grasped the man's hand and swiftly and deftly pulled him onto the horse.
Before Fu Bai could even settle in, Li Jingxing rode off, leaving behind only billowing dust and a single sentence.
"Zhao Shen, protect the Chen family. The king and queen will go ahead first."
Zhao Shen wanted to respond to Li Jingxing, but he couldn't even see the horse's rear end.
Grandpa Chen and Second Grandpa Chen were dumbfounded. Second Grandpa Chen couldn't help but worry about his son: "Dad, will Fufu be alright?"
Old Master Chen stroked his goatee and sighed softly, saying, "Even I don't know."
Fu Fu, you'd better pray for good fortune.

The night wind rushed past her ears, and Fu Bai was wrapped in Li Jingxing's cloak, with only her porcelain-white face showing.
He looked up slightly and could see Li Jingxing's taut jaw and tightly pursed lips.
Li Jingxing held Fu Bai in one arm and controlled the reins with the other, without saying a word the whole way.
Li Jingxing stopped his horse only when he reached the top of the mountain and looked down at Fu Bai.
Fu Bai smiled slightly, and reached out from under his cloak to place his hand on Li Jingxing's wrist, taking his pulse for a while.
After confirming that removing the Gu worm would not harm Li Jingxing's body, Fu Bai looked up at Li Jingxing again.
Li Jingxing looked down at him; his exquisitely beautiful face appeared even more radiant and lovely in the moonlight.
Knowing Fu Bai's purpose in taking his pulse, Li Jingxing snorted, but said, "The people of Taizhou are indeed in danger. They are of utmost importance. Your Highness need not worry about my health. I was fine before, and after the Gu worm was removed, I will be even better off. I also troubled Your Highness to leave me a letter."
"Writing this letter must have taken up a lot of the princess's time, right?"
Fu Bai burst out laughing after hearing this.
The mechanical fox in the sea of consciousness was dumbfounded.
etc!
Why does this tea taste so familiar?
Li Jingxing, you are a god of war on the battlefield, how could you be so stupid?
Regardless of 748's shock, Fu Bai tilted his head back and kissed Li Jingxing's chin, coaxing, "It was indeed my fault for not telling you beforehand. You can punish me however you want."
Li Jingxing lowered his eyes to meet the fox-like eyes that seemed to gleam with light. His gaze darkened, and he asked again, "Are you sure you can ask for any punishment I give you?"
While Li Jingxing was looking down, Fu Bai kissed him on the lips.
"It will be all right."
Li Jingxing: "Okay."
748 overheard their conversation and was already prepared to be blocked.
For a shameless vixen, things like outdoor sex and horseback riding are nothing.
However, the familiar shield did not appear. 748 only saw Fu Bai being turned around by Li Jingxing and lying on his lap. Then Li Jingxing raised his hand and then lowered it.
A large palm landed on her pale buttocks.
One, two...
A crisp, crackling sound rang out in the quiet mountain forest.
748：::::::
Feeling the slap on his buttocks, Fu Bai was stunned for a moment.
"Li Jingxing!"
Fu Bai reached out and pinched Li Jingxing's waist as revenge for the spanking.
Unfortunately, Li Jingxing's waist was stiff and couldn't be pinched at all.
Fortunately, Li Jingxing didn't want to continue. After patting Fu Bai a few times as a formality, he helped Fu Bai sit up again.
As soon as Fu Bai settled down, he raised his hand and slapped Li Jingxing like a fox with its fur standing on end.
Li Jingxing swiftly grabbed the person, pulled them into his arms, and held them tightly.
A hot breath brushed against Fu Bai's ear: "Fu Fu, next time you're going somewhere, please tell me in advance, okay?"
His voice lost its usual calmness and trembled slightly.
God knows how panicked he was when he woke up to find Fu Bai gone.
Even though it was the first time, Li Jingxing had a vague sense of panic, as if the other person had completely disappeared from his life.
Sensing Li Jingxing's emotions, Fu Bai's anger and embarrassment were soothed. He buried his face in Li Jingxing's neck and replied with a "Okay".
To appease Li Jingxing, Fu Bai looked up and exchanged a tender kiss with him.
After that, the two didn't say anything more and snuggled together as they waited for the sun to rise.

After traveling for seven days, the group finally arrived in Taizhou City on the eighth day.
The closer we got to Taizhou, the more desolate the road became.
In every village we passed, every household had closed their doors to visitors; the place was deserted and devoid of any sign of human life.
The city gates of Taizhou were tightly closed, and the city walls were heavily guarded.
The guards spotted the Chen family's group from afar and immediately went on alert, sending someone to inform their superiors.
Li Jingxing's two thousand cavalry did not enter the city; instead, he had them hide in the hills near Taizhou Prefecture.
He changed his clothes and mingled into the Chen family's group, heading to the city gate with Fu Bai.
The soldiers guarding the gate stood on the city wall and shouted loudly at them, "Who goes there? What brings you to Taizhou?"
