"Sister, why should we go with them? My eyes hurt just looking at that Yunniang."
Feng Yuyun angrily threw down the carriage curtain. She had just planned to see the scenery because she was bored on the journey, but when she opened the curtain, she saw her brother and Yunniang kissing each other, which was really eye-catching.
"Okay, I've explained it to you already. You should think of some way to slow down their progress."
At this time, two days had passed since they were in Fengcheng, and they were on their way to Qingzhou without stopping. However, Fengming still couldn't think of any way to openly stop Feng Heng and Zhu Shiqing.
As for why she wanted to stop them, Feng Ming also explained it, including the side quest of investigating the mystery of Wu Wan's fake death. She explained it clearly. After all, five people could investigate faster than her alone.
Ge Wei had left for Yaowang Valley two days ago. She was originally struggling with whether to train for a while longer or go back to Yaowang Valley, but she just received a letter from a carrier pigeon saying that something happened in the valley and she had to go back.
However, before she went back, she had already drawn a complete route to Yaowang Valley and left a token of entry to Yaowang Valley.
According to Ge Wei, Yaowang Valley is hidden deep in the mountains of Bashu. Only those who follow a specific route and hold special tokens are allowed to enter. It is extremely mysterious.
Feng Ming planned to deal with the two potential lucky people on Feng Heng's side, and then hurried to Yuncheng to deliver the things that the mysterious former leader asked him to send. Then he went to visit Yaowang Valley. Ge Wei's eyes and tone when she talked about the scenery of Yaowang Valley were so tempting. It must be a very beautiful place.
But that will happen in some time, so it’s more important to resolve this issue first. If we don’t think of a way to delay it any longer, we’ll really reach Qingzhou.
"Master, according to the weather forecast, there will be high temperatures and heavy rain in the afternoon. There is a small town ahead, why not take shelter there?"
0137 issued a weather warning at the right time, which is a good way to postpone the trip.
"Bi Chun, go tell Feng Heng that the temperature is too high this afternoon and it's not suitable for travel. Let's go to the small town ahead to take shelter before we continue. Oh, and tell Zhu Shiqing too that the patient shouldn't travel in hot weather."
Soon Bi Chun brought back the responses from Feng Heng and Zhu Shiqing, and they both agreed to go to the small town ahead to escape the summer heat and have lunch there.
The town is called Songxi Town, and the name sounds cool and refreshing.
The town is not big, but it is full of unique refinement and comfort everywhere. There is a stream flowing through the town, and the blue bricks and tiles are very elegant.
"Hey, old man, can you tell me how to get to the restaurant in this town?"
"Well, just walk straight ahead. The tallest three-story building at the end is the largest restaurant in Songxi."
Feng Xiyun felt too hot to ride his horse and lead the way. After finding out the address of the restaurant, he greeted it and ran over first. Fortunately, it was almost noon and there were not many pedestrians on the street.
However, they didn't expect that in such a small town, there were quite a few people in the restaurant, and the hall was bustling with people, which was no worse than the restaurant they had visited before in Fengcheng.
"Hey, sir, please come in~"
When the waiter saw Feng Xiyun coming in alone, he came forward to greet him enthusiastically, and Feng Xiyun threw the saddle to the waiter.
"Prepare four or five private rooms for me."
The waiter was stunned. Why would one person need so many private rooms?
Just at this time, the subsequent carriages arrived, and the waiter was smart enough to call out a few other waiters to help with the reception.
But she was a little hesitant about Feng Xiyun's request for a private room, "Sir, I'm really sorry, but our inn really doesn't have any private rooms."
Feng Xiyun looked up at the unusually luxurious three-story building with a look of doubt on his face.
"Sir, please listen to my explanation. We have a big event in Songxi the day after tomorrow, and a lot of guests have flocked here in the past few days. You may think our building is big, but the second and third floors are all guest rooms, and only this floor is for dining. We really don't have any private rooms."
Fengming got off the carriage and walked over. Something in his mind moved. There was a big event, a good opportunity!
"What big event, little brother?"
The waiter heard a pleasant female voice asking from behind and quickly turned around to reply.
"It's the day when Miss Songzhu, the most beautiful lady in Songxi, is competing for a husband."
After the waiter finished speaking, he looked up at the person who asked the question. For a moment, he wanted to take back what he had just said. The person in front of him was truly the most beautiful woman.
"Ahem~"
Bi Chun took a gauze hat and put it on Fengming, and couldn't help coughing to remind the waiter who didn't know etiquette.
In fact, Fengming didn’t think it was a big deal. She was just being looked at. If she had this face in her previous life, she would definitely become a star and attract a lot of fans.
"I see."
Feng Ming didn't say much. Although she was already thinking about how to keep Feng Heng and Zhu Shiqing, it was more important to go into the house first. It was really too sunny outside. There was no sunscreen in ancient times, so the sun would really hit the face.
Although the waiter said there were no private rooms, the knowledgeable waiter could still tell from the luxurious clothes of the guests that they were either rich or noble, so he arranged a more private place for them, where they could barely block their view with a screen.
But because there really wasn't enough space, the group of five had to eat with the other four people. This was the first time in a few days.
"Ah, I'm sorry to have wronged you, Yunniang. This place is too small."
Feng Heng helped Yunniang sit down, and Feng Yuyun curled her lips at his thoughtful care.
"Wan'er, come, sit here."
Zhu Shiqing took care of Wu Wan just as well as Feng Heng did. Feng Ming felt that as a proper princess, she had never been taken care of like that.
Wu Wan's condition has been slightly better in the past two days. Although her eyes are still following Tu Nan all the time, at least she is no longer resisting Zhu Shiqing.
Fengming was a little jealous that she kept staring at her boyfriend, so she deliberately pulled Tunan to sit next to her.
"I just heard from the waiter that the most beautiful lady in this town, Miss Songzhu, will be having a martial arts competition to find a husband the day after tomorrow. Why don't we rest here for a couple of days and watch the fun?"
After three rounds of drinks and half a meal, Fengming saw that the atmosphere at the table was quite harmonious, and finally took the first step in her plan to stop it.
"Forget it. We should go to Qingzhou as soon as possible to get the account book evidence."
Unexpectedly, Yunniang was the first to speak. This was the first formal communication between Fengming and her in so many days.
But this communication is better off not happening. What she wants is agreement to stay.
Feng Ming then turned her gaze to Feng Heng. She knew that Feng Heng was a man who was very greedy for beauty. Judging from his reaction when he heard the words "the most beautiful woman" just now, Feng Ming felt that he should want to stay.
