At a fork in the road twenty miles away in the eastern suburbs of the capital, two people and two horses stopped side by side. One of them was Bu Cong, the commander of the East Realm, and the other was a girl who had the same face as Feng Yuheng.
The girl pointed to the road leading to the east and said to Bu Cong with a smile: "General, if you keep going that way, the world will be yours. Come on, I'll take you there."
Bu Cong turned his head to look at her and asked, "What about you? The east is my world, yes, but it also refers to the east of Dashun. If you extend it in that direction, you are the landlord."
The girl giggled again. "It's not my territory, it's my father and brothers' territory. I'm just dominating under their protection, but who knows who will be the brother who will replace my father in the future? I don't know how many years I can continue to do so. Why not come out and see, make more friends, and ensure my safety and wealth for the rest of my life. For example, General Bu, we are already friends, aren't we?"
Bu Cong stared at her for a long time. He was distracted for a moment, but soon recovered.
The girl raised her hand and touched her face, "Very similar, right? General Bu likes her." The latter sentence was a statement.
Bu Congdao did not refute, but just said: "It resembles, but lacks some charm." But after saying that, he shook his head, "What charm or not, she is not the same as before." Seeing that the girl was looking at him puzzled, he could not help but waved his hand and said no more.
The girl then asked, "Are you so sure that the Third and Fourth Princes will lose this battle? If you just run away like this, what if the two of them really take over the capital and the palace in one fell swoop? Wouldn't you go from being a meritorious official to a guilty official?"
Bu Cong sneered, "It's not that easy. One of them had his brain damaged by the Princess of Ji'an, and the other has never had a healthy brain since childhood. If you want to take down Dashun from the Ninth Prince, you can just dream on!"
"Then why are you helping them?"
"This is my business, you undoubtedly know it." Bu Cong's eyes suddenly turned cold, and when he shot at the girl again, there was a warning in his eyes. "I don't care how you mess around in Beijing, but you'd better choose the right person before you attack, otherwise..."
"General Bu means that if I touch Feng Yuheng, you will kill me, right?" The girl laughed loudly, "You really are grateful but don't expect anything in return. Well, let's go quickly. If someone finds out your weakness any later, I won't be able to help you." After she finished speaking, she turned around and rode back in the opposite direction.
Bu Cong stared at the back for a long time, clenching the hilt of the sword in his hand again and again. Several times he had the urge to kill the girl with a sword from behind, but he always gave up his determination at the last moment.
He has too many things to do. The girl's safety is taken care of by the right people, not him.
He gave a wry smile, whipped his horse, and headed straight for the eastern border.
The girl who had already run back to the capital raised her hand and wiped off a thin mask. The face that looked exactly like Feng Yuheng was removed, and the real face underneath was finally exposed. It turned out to be Yu Qianyin.
A sneer appeared on her real face. She turned around to look at Bu Cong who had already run away. She opened her red lips and said, "You are really a fool, but..." Yu Qianyin turned her head back with a cold look, "You have cut off my sect's Sui Tiejing and ruined my marriage. Feng Yuheng, this princess and you will never coexist." Once this fierce look came up, she could no longer look innocent like an eleven or twelve-year-old. She whipped her horse and galloped around the capital to the north.
At this time, Feng Yuheng and Xuan Tianhua had already met the secret guards who came to pick them up. The secret guards escorted them all the way back to the city, but when they were about to reach the city gate, they heard someone in the bushes beside the official road calling out in a questioning voice: "Seventh Brother!"
Feng Yuheng frowned, this voice was too familiar to her. She never expected that during such a chaotic night, Yu Qianyin could actually get out of the city.
Everyone stopped their horses, and a secret guard followed the sound and soon brought Yu Qianyin to them.
Hua Tianhua looked over expressionlessly, only to see Yu Qianyin in a mess, with mud all over her dress, her face blackened, and her hair disheveled. Seeing Xuan Tianhua looking at her, she quickly rushed to his horse and called out, "Seventh Brother!" Her voice sounded aggrieved, and tears fell down in an instant.
Before Xuan Tianhua could say anything, the horse that Yu Qianyin had jumped on refused to obey. It moved its hooves, took a half step back, then tilted its body and pushed Yu Qianyin aside.
Yu Qianyin couldn't stand steadily and sat down on the ground. He couldn't help but curse: "Damn horse, I risked my life to come out to find your master, and you treated me like this!" Then he said to Xuan Tianhua: "Seventh brother, you must not return to the capital. The capital is in chaos. I saw many people dead. If I hadn't been smart enough to get through the dog hole, I'm afraid I would have been chopped down on the street now."
Feng Yuheng laughed, "There's chaos in the capital and you're still running away. You deserve to be killed."
Yu Qianyin rolled her eyes at Feng Yuheng and said aggrievedly, "I came out to look for my seventh brother. He said he was going out to buy me food, but he never came back. I'm not as cold-hearted as the Princess of Ji'an County. If anything happened to my seventh brother, I wouldn't be able to live."
"Shut up!" Xuan Tianhua finally couldn't listen any more. Although Yu Qianyin's sudden appearance here caught him off guard, he was more confused. This was the capital city. Not to mention whether there was a dog hole on the city wall that could be drilled, even if there was, there was a turmoil tonight, and there were many people and horses staring at every corner. Would they let someone go through the dog hole? He looked at Yu Qianyin coldly, and he had no sympathy for her embarrassment. He just said coldly: "We are going back to the city now, you follow!" After that, he winked at a secret guard, and the secret guard grabbed Yu Qianyin and put her horizontally on his horse's back, just like putting a bag of goods. He didn't use any lightness or strength under his hands, and Yu Qianyin grimaced in pain.
She shouted, "Seventh Brother, I want to ride a horse with you!"
Xuan Tianhua ignored him, pulled Feng Yuheng's reins, and rushed out first.
Feng Yuheng followed behind, glanced at Yu Qianyin, and said with a smile: "I'm saving all those delicious dishes that Miss Yu gave me for you! After returning to Beijing, I'll pick a good day to send them to your door, so that Miss Yu can also taste my cooking skills."
These words made Yu Qianyin confused. She understood what good food meant, but how long ago was that? She was not surprised that Feng Yuheng was not poisoned to death. What was surprising was that Feng Yuheng actually said that the food was still there, which made her completely unable to understand.
The group returned to the capital with their doubts and guesses. On the way, they met the second group of people. Bai Ze personally led the people out and briefly told Feng Yuheng about the things in the capital. She was a little frightened after listening to it.
She didn't know that Xuan Tianming had done so many things behind the scenes, and he had replaced Xuan Tianye's 20,000 soldiers without anyone noticing. What a huge project! However, she was also somewhat smug about her neat technique of breaking Xuan Tianye's bones, and asked Bai Ze with a smile: "When the Third Prince lay down, did he look like a boneless soft fish?"
Bai Ze nodded, "Softer than fish, like mud."
Feng Yuheng laughed loudly, "That's good, my efforts were not in vain." After that, she turned back to look at Yu Qianyin who was laid horizontally on the horse's back by the secret guard, and said loudly, "You look old from this angle. From the way I look at you, you are older than me. You must have reached the age of marriage a long time ago, right?"
Yu Qianyin's eyes showed a hint of cruelty, but she still said, "I don't understand what the county lady is saying."
Feng Yuheng waved her hand, "Whether you understand or not is not the point. This county lady is just reminding you that no matter what you do, it's best to take it easy and don't get yourself involved. Yu Qianyin, this county lady is not familiar with this name and has never heard of it before. I'm afraid you can't find it with the household registration officials in the provinces of Dashun, right? People like you are called black households, and no one will know even if you die."
Yu Qianyin stopped moving and turned her head away, not wanting to pay attention to her. Xuan Tianhua shrugged and smiled bitterly, then leaned towards Feng Yuheng and whispered, "Why are you scaring her?"
Feng Yuheng stretched out a hand and placed it on Xuan Tianhua's shoulder, saying carelessly: "Some people need to be beaten from time to time, otherwise they will always forget who they are. Seventh brother, you have your reasons for accepting her, and I have my reasons for punishing her. Of course..." When she said this, her face darkened, "She also has the freedom to seek death."
"Hengheng." Xuan Tianhua couldn't bear to see the girl's fierce look, and said helplessly: "I just don't want you to be like this, so I keep her by my side, why are you doing this?"
Feng Yuheng shook her head, "But you will hurt yourself, and that woman may not give up." After she finished speaking, she raised her eyebrows at Xuan Tianhua and whispered, "Seventh Brother, that woman imitated me in every way. At first I thought she was trying to get close to you, but later I felt that was not the case."
Xuan Tianhua looked a little unnatural, because Feng Yuheng's words clearly meant that if she pretended to be like her, he would pay attention to her, like her, and might keep her by his side. He lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Feng Yuheng's face was filled with laughter again. He used some strength on the arm that had been hooked around Xuan Tianhua's neck to bring Xuan Tianhua closer to him.
Xuan Tianhua said helplessly: "Why don't you just sit on my horse."
She thought this was a good idea, so she stretched out her hand and handed it to Xuan Tianhua. The other party exerted force and pulled her in front of him, sitting her steadily on the horse's back.
"Go ahead."
"Okay." Feng Yuheng half raised her head and spoke to him: "Ah Heng doesn't think Yu Qianyin would know what Seventh Brother is thinking." She said it seriously, and actually said out loud something that Xuan Tianhua had been hiding in his heart and dared not say or even admit.
He was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer. Fortunately, Feng Yuheng did not ask any more questions, and did not even linger for too long, and continued: "So it makes no sense for her to learn from me in order to get close to you, so the only possibility here is... the person she wants to get close to is actually Xuan Tianming. Right?"
