Feng Yuheng's crazy plan finally kicked off. When Qiu took the fifty taels of silver from Madam Lu, and when Yuan Fei watched Feng Yuheng being dragged away by Madam Lu, the worry in his heart seemed to be unable to be suppressed any longer, and it surged up, and a terrible intuition also came over him. (
.
He had been a secret guard for many years, and his intuition was the most sensitive when facing a crisis. Now, his intuition told him that it was extremely dangerous for Feng Yuheng to leave all of them behind and venture to the Northern Territory.
He took a step forward, as if to pull Feng Yuheng back, but Qiu stepped in front of him before him and said in a low voice: "The overall situation is more important."
Yuan Fei took a few deep breaths, and his mood finally calmed down a little, but after stabilizing, he sighed bitterly. It was already extremely dangerous for the princess not to go with His Highness, and now she has come up with such an idea. What should he do?
At this time, Huang Quan also came back, but she did not bring Qingle with her. She returned to Yuan Fei and saw that Feng Yuheng was not there, so she knew that he must have left. A layer of anxiety covered her face, but it faded quickly. No matter what, the plan had already begun, and they absolutely could not hold Feng Yuheng back at this time.
So she said to Yuan Fei respectfully, "Master, the singing girl leader said that woman is not for sale. If you are interested in the goods he has, you can exchange it for another one. Why not that one?"
Yuan Fei snorted angrily, flicked his sleeves and said: "Do you really think that I can't do without her? You don't even want her to show me respect! Humph!" Then he turned around and walked away quickly.
Huang Quan breathed a sigh of relief and carefully looked towards the official road to the north. Mrs. Lu and her family had already boarded the carriage and left. She shook her head helplessly and quickly followed Yuan Fei.
At this time, Feng Yuheng was sitting in the Lu family's carriage, her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and she kept asking Madam Lu: "Is our young lady okay? If I leave like this, the young lady will definitely be sad."
Having been forced to get rid of the maid, Judge Lu always felt bad. Although he had several concubines in his house, they lived in fear under the suppression of Madam Lu. Even if they gave birth to children, only daughters could survive, and then those daughters would be sent to various useful families to be concubines after they reached the age of 15. On weekdays, he could only stay in the concubines' room for three days at most each month, so he could not even have a turn in one of the four concubines in a month.
Moreover, there is a saying that a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a secret lover, and of course, a secret lover is not as good as not being able to steal. The maidservant was in a secret lover's position, and she was bold enough to dare to do something shameful under the eyes of Lu Tongpan while Mrs. Lu was asleep. Naturally, her position in Lu Tongpan's heart was different.
It's hard to meet such a special maid again! When Lu Tongpan thought about it, he felt even more resentful. However, he didn't dare to express such resentment to his wife, so he took it out on Feng Yuheng, who replaced the maid.
Feng Yuheng's words did not wait for Madam Lu's reply, but made Lu Tongpan furious, and he suddenly shouted - "You conscienceless brat! Who is your young lady? You are a slave that we have bought, but you still keep claiming that someone else is your master. What use do we have for such a slave?"
Feng Yuheng shrank into a ball in fear, but she snorted in her heart. In order to act, she insisted on describing Yuan Fei as a man who was moody and lusty of women. However, she didn't know that the real man who was moody and lusty of women was actually this Lu Tongpan. Seeing that he was still honest when he was in Yuan Fei's private room that day, she didn't expect that he would turn his face so quickly.
But he only yelled a few times, and he couldn't really do anything. With Madam Lu sitting here, even if he wanted to show off his eloquence, Judge Lu could only stop there.
Madam Lu looked at him gloomily and snorted, "Why, I have a yellow-haired girl with me now, and you can't do it, right? Not as good as the previous one, right? Lu Zhengtian, let me tell you, if you want to sit on the position of Qingzhou governor, you have to rely on my Duanmu family, otherwise, with your little connections, forget it."
When the position of Qingzhou prefect was mentioned, Lu Tongpan immediately became dispirited. He had longed for this position, and he really could only rely on the Duanmu family. Otherwise, how come he had never succeeded after so many years of secretly working?
Seeing that Lu Zhengtian stopped talking, Madam Lu rolled her eyes at him again, then reached out to pat Feng Yuheng, lowering her voice: "Don't be afraid, he's just a paper tiger, he can scare people, but he has no other abilities. You used to work in the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, and the young master had such a temper, I think you must have seen many scenes like this."
Feng Yuheng nodded and agreed, "Lord Lu and Madam Lu are already very good people. The young master in the past was really..." When she mentioned the young master, her eyes became red again, and Madam Lu coaxed her for a while again.
But despite the coaxing, she did not forget the purpose of buying this girl. From time to time, she asked a few questions about the Right Prime Minister's Mansion. Feng Yuheng talked nonsense and turned the topic around to the fact that the Right Prime Minister and the Left Prime Minister Feng Jinyuan did not get along with each other, and Feng Jinyuan was eventually demoted. At the same time, she also gave herself another name, Qianxi.
The three people in the carriage, each with their own thoughts, hurried to the north. Wang Chuan and others who stayed in Qingzhou were anxious but did not dare to chase them. After all, the Lu family was considered a local tyrant here, and Mrs. Lu had the blood of the Duanmu family. They suddenly bought a little slave and made such a big fuss, which would definitely attract the attention of someone with ulterior motives. I'm afraid that someone with the intention of inquiring has already followed them at this time. If they act again, it would be too dangerous.
Wang Chuan and his party were trapped in Qingzhou, and it would take at least a few days before they could change their appearance and continue their journey. At this time, Xuan Tianming's large army was still marching in the mountains. Bai Furong's horse riding skills had improved a lot after these days of training, but they were still awkward, not as free as Feng Yuheng.
Bai Ze and Xuan Tianming protected her in the middle, in the name of protection, but in reality it was for surveillance. Bai Furong naturally had no idea what was going on, and she focused on controlling the horse, fearing that the mountain road was rugged and the horse would throw her off again.
Bai Ze looked at her nervousness and couldn't help but say, "If I had known this would happen, I should have practiced horse riding in advance."
"Huh?" Bai Furong was stunned, not understanding what Bai Ze said: "How could I have known that this day would come?" She widened her eyes, "This is just a coincidence, I did it with gritted teeth, otherwise, as the daughter of a skilled craftsman, why would I practice horse riding when I have nothing better to do?"
Bai Ze curled his lips, "She is the daughter of a skilled craftsman, but none of the good sisters you have made are simple. Apart from the girl from the Feng family, tell me, Princess Wuyang, the daughter of General Pingnan, and our princess, who is not a fierce general? You should be mentally prepared when you hang out with them. Sooner or later, you will have to ride a horse."
"Tsk." Bai Furong rolled her eyes at him. "It's my father's ability to make these friends, but who says I have to be able to do what my friends can do? Go ask Feng Tianyu if she can ride a horse."
Bai Furong didn't let Bai Ze down without saying a word. Bai Ze touched his nose and thought, as expected, everyone around the princess is good at talking. But Bai Furong, Bai Furong, I want to see how long you can pretend like this.
The army marched through the mountains for another five days and finally bypassed Qingzhou. But the troops could not take the official road, so what awaited them was another round of marching into the mountains.
On this day, Bai Ze delivered a secret letter to Xuan Tianming. It was sealed with wax and the word "Chuan" was written on the outside. They knew that the letter was sent by Wang Chuan.
Xuan Tianming opened the letter and was shocked when he saw it. Bai Ze was puzzled as to why his master had such an expression, and he also looked at the letter in surprise. It didn't matter if he saw it, he was almost scared to the ground.
“This, this, this, this…” Isn’t that woman too bold?
Xuan Tianming clenched the hand holding the letter into a fist. The secret letter was crumpled in his hand, and his fingers made a creaking sound.
Feng Yuheng, what on earth do you want to do? Xuan Tianming looked up at the sky, and it took a lot of effort to stop the urge to chase her. At this moment, his inner thoughts were exactly the same as Bai Ze's. That damn girl was so bold that sometimes he felt that he couldn't control himself.
But things couldn't be changed since they had come to this point. He threw the ball of paper into the burning fire and whispered to Bai Ze, "Send someone to investigate. Just keep an eye out for any suspicious people following the Lu family. Make sure the princess is safe."
Bai Ze nodded and immediately went to make arrangements.
Five days later, the news came back again. Bai Ze told Xuan Tianming: "Except for Wang Chuan and his group who continued on their way north, no suspicious people were found." He paused, and then said: "Not only did no one from the Lu family chase them, but there was no one following Wang Chuan and his group. I think those people went back to the capital to search."
He recalled the conversation between Bai Furong and the man in black that he heard that night, and he was still confused. But that was also the reason why he had been kind to Bai Furong these days. Otherwise, if Bai Furong revealed Feng Yuheng's whereabouts, he would have killed her immediately.
Xuan Tianming was not surprised to hear this. He turned sideways and squinted his eyes to look at the tent where Bai Furong was sleeping. From childhood to adulthood, he had never complained about his royal family background. To him, being a prince or a commoner was life. Being a prince meant taking on more responsibilities and fighting more big battles. Moreover, he had always been ambitious about this, so he was quite content.
But these expeditions were different. There was a woman in his life. She had almost the same personality and hobbies as him. When talking about fighting, the girl would jump up and down, even happier than him. He had originally been looking forward to the two of them going to the battlefield together. He had even thought about protecting her well on the battlefield and not letting her get hurt at all.
But he didn't expect that the dead girl wanted to go ahead before the camp even left, and she used countless great principles to convince him. He knew that those principles were all right, so he let her go first. But now, the dead girl even got rid of the maids and secret guards. She knew that the army was slow to move, and it would take at least four months to go north. How worried should he be during these four months?
From the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves to the bone-chilling wind, slowly, finally, heavy snow covered the sky.
Two months have passed... Please visit:
