Because of the dead Silver-Armored Guards and the women who were kidnapped and had their lives ruined, Xiao Li was in a very gloomy mood, with a cold face.
When they returned to where the carriage was left, they saw Hongyue, Qiao Lanzhi and her maid fighting with each other.
The three girls were fighting, and the guards next to them did not take any action. Of course, Hongyue was the one who had the upper hand.
"What's going on?"
Hearing Xiao Li's voice, Hong Yue immediately withdrew: "Master, you are back."
"I just made some soup, it's time for dinner."
She came over quickly and gently pulled Xiao Li to sit on the stool next to them.
She didn't follow them to the bandit's lair. She asked someone to build a stove and cook here.
As she brought water for Xiao Li to wash his hands, she glanced at the two people beside her with disdain before saying, "Master, I was just making soup, and Miss Qiao said she was hungry and insisted on eating. I'm not unreasonable, and there were some dry food and dried meat nearby, so I gave some to her, but she insisted on eating this freshly cooked food, and even said she only eats chicken legs."
She was not angry at first, but after hearing this, Hongyue almost exploded again.
"This servant said that this was cooked for the master and could not be eaten by her. She said that she was the daughter of the governor, a rich lady and so on. But can the daughter of the governor force herself to eat other people's food?"
"I didn't say anything, but they said that if I served her well, I would get some benefits."
If she wasn't facing Xiao Li, Hongyue would have wanted to roll her eyes. Please, she was the most favored maid beside the empress. What benefits did she need from a prefect?
Besides, this so-called daughter of the prefect is really ignorant. When she goes out, she is accompanied by four guards and a coachman. Look at this side. Even if we don’t know the identity of His Majesty, looking at those thirty murderous guards and the decoration of this carriage, how is she not more noble than the daughter of the prefect?
His brain wasn't working properly and his eyes were blind.
"Then it got even funnier... She actually said she was the future Princess of Wei. I told her she was lying and that the King of Wei would never marry her. Then she hit me. I had to protect the soup, so I had no choice but to hit them. And then this is what the master saw."
Hongyue was truly speechless.
She asked why she was still so arrogant after seeing this team. It turned out that it was because she felt she had to climb higher.
But isn't this a joke?
The King of Wei married her, so what was Your Majesty going to look for?
The King of Wei has been kidnapped and his life or death is unknown. He is still waiting for Your Majesty to rescue him, but she said that the King of Wei would marry her. She is showing off in front of Your Majesty, which is simply hilarious.
Xiao Li: This is actually Xiao Jingyi’s love debt?
Over there, Qiao Lanzhi and her maid were fixing their hair and clothes. After hearing Hongyue's words, Qiao Lanzhi suddenly grabbed something, walked towards them aggressively, and handed the thing in front of them.
"Open your eyes and see clearly. This is the token given to me by the King of Wei!"
Xiao Li didn't open his eyes wide, but he still took a look. Well, there was a word "Yi" written on it. Although Xiao Li had never seen it before, judging from the style and material, it was indeed the token of the King of Wei.
Seeing Xiao Li's silence, Qiao Lanzhi thought she had intimidated her and said proudly, "The King of Wei said that I am a woman of great intelligence and a rare talent in the world. If there is a chance, he will introduce me to Her Majesty the Empress."
She deliberately emphasized the last four people, Her Majesty the Empress!
Hongyue: “…”
Everyone: “…”
Girl, there is no need for the King of Wei, you have already met the empress, but the King of Wei is a man of great talent and intelligence, when did he go blind?
Xiao Li's depressed mood was almost amused by her.
Hongyue suppressed her laughter and shook her head, then turned to prepare the table and brought the cooked food.
Hongyue was only responsible for cooking for Xiao Li, which was inconvenient when he was away from home, but they were well prepared, so Hongyue cooked rice, stewed dried meat, stewed chicken, a vegetable, a dish of cold salad, and a small portion of fried pancakes.
Xiao Li doesn't care about these things. Eating some dry food and drinking some water is fine. But Hongyue can't bear to see her master suffer. She came here to take care of His Majesty. Not to mention her, even other people will try their best to serve His Majesty.
No one in this world is more important than Your Majesty.
Seeing that Xiao Li ignored her and ate so many dishes alone, Qiao Lanzhi was hungry and angry.
But she could get close to Hongyue, but not to Xiao Li. Rong Qing was like a mountain standing in front of her, with a cold face and majestic gaze that made people feel scared.
In the end, she could only stamp her feet in anger: "You will definitely regret this."
The group had their meal and continued on their journey.
Someone specially sent Yu Song's body away, and a coffin was found for it to be sent back for burial.
The journey was delayed for half a day, and the inn that was originally planned to be a rest stop for lunch ended up becoming a place to spend the night.
Qiao Lanzhi took some money with her and went to live alone.
Xiao Li went into the house to rest and read the news sent from the court.
Most of the news in the court passed through Song Junzhan's hands, and this handwriting is obviously his.
First report on the government affairs of the court, and then report on the news about King Wei. King Wei is nowhere to be found now, but there is some movement on King Xian's side, and it seems that something is about to happen.
After reporting everything, he only wrote two words at the end: Nian'an.
The first part was all official business, and the last two words were the only ones he wanted to write.
There was clearly not a single word related to feelings, but the last two words, every stroke, were full of tenderness.
Xiao Li looked at the letter several times before burning it and writing a reply.
As for Lou Yan, he couldn't send letters at any time in Longxi Valley, but he had only been away for a few days, so Xiao Li ignored him for the time being.
The next morning, Xiao Li and the others were preparing to leave. Zi Yue whispered, "Sister, that Miss Qiao left early this morning."
Although Xiao Li didn't expect it, he wasn't very surprised either.
Knowing that you can't gain any benefits and being ignored, there will be problems if you don't leave.
Xiao Li didn't take Qiao Lanzhi seriously. He never thought that just an hour after they left, it suddenly started to rain heavily and a landslide in front of them blocked the road, forcing them to change their route to Luoxia City.
When they arrived at the city gate, they happened to see Qiao Lanzhi's coachman driving the carriage slowly towards them, preparing to hand over the document to enter the city.
Qiao Lanzhi accidentally saw this and instantly became angry: "Didn't you say you wouldn't come to Luoxia City?"
Xiao Li didn't move. Hongyue lifted the curtain and took a look, and was also convinced by this bad fate.
"Master, what should we do now?"
Xiao Li propped up his head with one hand to relieve the dizziness: "What can I do? Am I really afraid of her father, the governor?"
Seeing that no one in the team paid any attention to her, Qiao Lanzhi did not insist. She just gave them a hateful look and left.
However, when Xiao Li and his companions entered the city to rest and have lunch, they were surrounded by soldiers from the prefectural government.
"It's them, colluding with the bandits to hunt down the Third Miss. Take them down."
Xiao Li couldn't help but curse in his heart: Xiao Jingyi, just wait for me!
