Chapter 293 This place looks eerie!

"It's ridiculous that my relatives would plot against me like this. I'm really confused!"

Although she had already made a mental plan, she was still filled with anger when she learned that she had been framed by her mother and brother.

But she now knows the importance of the matter and will not waste too much time on it. The most important thing right now is to find the prince first.

Feng Xuanling thought Xu Yanyi was angry and was afraid that she would do something inappropriate, so he quickly comforted her, "Princess, please take the overall situation into consideration and don't let your feelings get in the way."

In fact, he regretted it the moment he said this. After all, the eldest princess was still a girl, and she was good at romance. He felt a little lucky.

Fortunately, Xu Yanyi didn't think too much about it. She nodded and said, "Don't worry, I know the seriousness of the matter. I will definitely settle accounts with them after this matter is over. Let's find our destination quickly before it gets dark!"

Feng Xuanling nodded, but looking at the palace maid in front of him who was moving around in the clouds, he pointed at her in confusion, "Then what about this woman?"

Xu Yanyi paused for a moment, then pulled the earrings off the chain and put them away. Then she snapped her fingers in the ear of the palace maid, who then dropped her head and fainted.

"Is this the solution?" He didn't know much about hypnosis and didn't know what the current condition of the palace maid was.

"Well, she won't wake up in the short term, and she won't be a problem for us, but she has given us so much useful information, and we should be grateful to her."

As she spoke, she took out a stack of banknotes from her arms and stuffed them directly into the maid's hand. Although the maid was unconscious, she was unconscious and could not move, so she just had to stuff the banknotes into her hand and wait for her to see the banknotes after she woke up. She couldn't throw them away.

Besides, the banknotes were compensation, and Xu Yanyi had given them out. If the palace maid didn't want her anymore, it had nothing to do with her anymore.

Feng Xuanling nodded in agreement, "That's fine. If you give this woman some money, she can find a place to live after she gets out. It can be considered a favor you have bestowed on her. But at this rate, she probably won't be able to get out alive."

Xu Yanyi also understood what he meant. The palace girl already looked a little insane, and was unconscious here. It was impossible for anyone passing by here to save her life.

In that case, since we have already done it, we might as well do one more step.

"There should be a lot of hidden places around here. Look around and find a safe and hidden place. We can hide the people there."

"Okay, I'll go right away." He followed Xu Yanyi's instructions without hesitation, turned around and went to check the nearby most agricultural grass forest.

After a while, he trotted back and said, "The princess has found it. There is a small cave in the mountain in the dense forest not far away. There are no traces of wild animals in it, so it is relatively safe. It is also relatively hidden and ordinary people can't find it. It is the most suitable place to hide people."

"Carry it away!"

At the command, Feng Xuanling immediately carried the palace girl on his back and walked towards the dense forest. Finally, he hid the person in the small cave and did not forget to cover the person with dry grass while leaving.

After doing all this, Xu Yanyi also breathed a sigh of relief. "After doing so much, it's none of our business if she continues to make trouble and seek death after waking up. If she's lucky... maybe there's still a glimmer of hope."

"Let's go!"

After the two men settled the palace maid, they immediately continued walking along the road the palace maid came from. Since this road was walked by the palace maid, it meant that the destination was at the end of this road.

We walked deeper and deeper, and soon we were deep in the woods. Our steps became slower and slower, and the path became more and more desolate and remote.

"Princess, this place looks eerie. I'm afraid it's not very safe. No wonder the old witch at the Queen Mother was able to hide people in a place like this. Most people wouldn't go so deep into the place."

Feng Xuanling kept calling her an old witch, and he didn't care that the so-called old witch was Xu Yanyi's mother. He was only thinking about complaining.

But Xu Yanyi didn't care that much. After all, her mother and the emperor had done so many things against her, she would never let it go.

But Feng Xuanling was right. The place became more and more desolate as they walked along. The sky even gradually darkened, causing Xu Yanyi to feel the cool and stimulating breeze blowing on her body every two steps.

"Be careful, it's not safe in the woods after dark." Xu Yanyi whispered to Feng Xuanling behind her.

Feng Xuanling didn't take it seriously at first. After all, there were no one from the emperor nearby, and other dangers were not a big deal.

But the two felt something was wrong the further they walked. The forest was relatively quiet when it was still daylight, but as the moon slowly climbed up into the sky, they could hear many faint rustling sounds in the forest.

Accompanied by the howling of some wild beasts, this forest seemed extremely terrifying.

These beasts come out to hunt at night, so if the two of them are unlucky, they may encounter beasts that come out to hunt.

Thinking of this, Feng Xuanling was also worried that the princess would be scared when she heard these sounds, so he couldn't help but say, "Princess, there may be wild beasts attacking near us. For safety, you should hide behind me. If a wild beast rushes out, I can still protect you."

In fact, after he said this, he felt the atmosphere was a little different. After all, most girls are afraid of the night, ghosts and beasts. After hearing such words, they would definitely hide behind Feng Xuanling obediently.

But it had been a while since he had said this, and the princess showed no intention of moving. She was even groping slowly forward. He was surprised by her calm and self-possessed spirit.

Only then did he touch his nose awkwardly, realizing that the eldest princess was not afraid at all and did not need his protection.

This was not the most embarrassing thing for him. What was more embarrassing was...

"Hey, what is this? Get out of the way!" Suddenly Feng Xuanling felt a dark shadow coming towards him from above. He was so scared that he quickly swung his sword to drive away the dark shadow.

When he came to his senses, he realized that it was just a crow. His face turned red and he was extremely ashamed.

In the last second he said he wanted to protect the eldest princess, and in the next second he was scared like this by a crow. It was really embarrassing.

Xu Yanyi turned around to look after hearing the noise, but in the end she didn't turn him down and said calmly, "It's hard to see clearly at night, so you're right to be scared. Just be quieter next time you shout, so as not to provoke the enemy."

"I understand." Feng Xuanling's face turned even redder. He was actually comforted by a woman.
