Upon hearing that Yuan Yao was worried about Tangyuan, Jing'er's eyes reddened again: "The princess has already lost Qian Sui, she can't lose Tangyuan too."
Princess, this servant will be obedient and wait for you at the palace!
However, since I'm not by your side, Your Highness must take good care of yourself..."
"I know."
Yuan Yao raised her sleeve to wipe her eyes, but she couldn't wipe away the two tears at the corners of her eyes.
Aruo looked at her, hesitant to speak.
After holding back, Aruo curtsied and said, "Since the princess is going on a long journey, this servant will pack your luggage for her right away."
Yuan Yao nodded: "Go ahead."
Aruo left, and also called Jing'er away.
After packing was finished, Yuan Yao saw that the bundle was large and heavy.
Yuan Yao chuckled: "Aruo, Jing'er, what have you both been pretending for me?"
Jing'er quickly answered, "They are all clothes, jewelry, banknotes, and silver."
Aruo said that, fearing the princess might feel wronged while traveling, she insisted on packing her 100,000 taels of silver notes.
One hundred thousand taels?
Yuan Yao was surprised and amused: "I was only out for a short while, why are you giving me so many silver notes?"
Aruo replied, "The princess has been raised in luxury since childhood, and everything she has is the best."
"I'm afraid the princess won't be used to going out, so I thought you should take more silver notes with you."
"Mmm!" Jing'er chimed in from the side, "And there are glutinous rice balls! Glutinous rice balls eat so much meat every day!"
"Princess, please bring more money so you can buy some good meat to feed Tangyuan."
That's all.
Yuan Yao instructed, "I will be leaving once night falls."
If anyone comes from the palace, please send a message to me.
The Emperor knows I am leaving, so presumably no one will come to the palace anytime soon.
After I leave, continue as usual; do not let anyone know I am not here.
Jing'er assured, "This servant will!"
Yuan Yao looked at Aruo: "Aruo, keep an eye on Jing'er and the palace."
Aruo said solemnly, "Please rest assured, Princess, I know what to do."
Yuan Yao nodded.
The medicine had taken effect, and her discomfort was completely gone.
After lunch, Yuan Yao took a nice bath.
As soon as it got dark, after dinner, Po Yue took her out of the palace.
The Donghu Imperial Palace was extremely deserted at night.
Looking around, the palace lanterns dotted the sky like stars.
After flying for a long time, Yuan Yao couldn't help but ask, "Where's the horse?"
Po Yue: "..."
He said coldly, "I was so cold I forgot."
Yuan Yao: "?"
She said irritably, "How come you haven't forgotten me!"
Po Yue: "..."
He glanced at the gloomy woods at his feet and asked coldly, "How about we find a place to stay for the night and continue our journey at dawn?"
Yuan Yao glanced sideways: "Po Yue, are you afraid?"
"I'm not afraid," Po Yue gritted her teeth.
Yeah, right!
Yuan Yao smiled inwardly.
She pointed in a direction: "After you cross that mountain, there will be a field."
The fields reflect light at night; pay attention.
"What are you doing watching the fields?" Po Yue asked. "The broad beans aren't ripe yet."
Hudou?
puff……
Yuan Yao was quite helpless: "Po Yue, is food all you think about?"
They're unstoppable, waiting for us over there!
Po Yue: "..."
I really want to throw her away.
Never mind, I'll just have to bear it.
Po Yue wrapped Yuan Yao in her cloak: "Hold on tight!"
After speaking, he gathered his strength and flew in the direction Yuan Yao pointed.
After crossing the mountain, a paddy field was clearly visible in the night.
On the path beside the field, four black-clad guards were waiting with their horses.
Immediately, they all took their luggage.
Upon seeing Yuan Yao, the four of them bowed and said, "Greetings, Princess!"
Yuan Yao waved her hand: "Once we're out of the palace, there's no need for so many formalities." Then she asked, "Have you packed your luggage?"
One of the guards replied, "Your Highness, we've brought it."
Yuan Yao looked southwest and said, "Let's go."
At night, water freezes instantly.
Five horses trotted through the snow.
On the way, Yuan Yao summoned a messenger hawk and sent a message to Yun Chan.
After careful consideration, she decided that she couldn't bring Tangyuan with her on her trip to Nanxi Town.
Bringing along glutinous rice balls is too eye-catching!
If you have glutinous rice balls on the left and your father standing on the right, that would be even more eye-catching!
Wouldn't that make it easy to expose Father?
Therefore, she had to find a good place for the glutinous rice balls.
For example, temporarily send the glutinous rice balls to Yunchan's side...
After releasing the carrier hawk, the group continued on their journey.
On the morning of the third day, Canfeng met Yuanyao and Poyue outside Yicheng.
"Lingering Wind!"
Yuan Yao jumped off the horse and pulled her cloak tighter around herself.
Wearing a half-mask, Canfeng greeted the morning light and asked with concern, "Is the princess tired?"
Yuan Yao shook her head.
She strode towards Canfeng and asked, "Have the Imperial Guards that Xie Zhi sent all returned?"
Canfeng nodded: "They've all gone back."
That's good.
Yuan Yao exhaled a puff of white breath: "It's so cold, let's go into the city first."
Seeing this, Canfeng's eyes flashed with a hint of heartache: "I have prepared a carriage with hot tea and a heater. Please get in first, Princess."
"Uh-huh!"
Yuan Yao rubbed his hands together and climbed onto the carriage.
She had barely stepped onto the carriage when Po Yue lifted the curtain and came up too: "Move over a bit."
Yuan Yao: "?"
She laughed in exasperation: "Po Yue, you're getting more and more unruly."
Po Yue sat down opposite her with an air of nonchalance, poured a steaming cup of tea, handed it to Yuan Yao, and said coldly, "Drink the tea."
Yuan Yao took the teacup.
Poyue poured herself another cup of tea and drank it all in one gulp.
After drinking the tea, he said, "Your hands are very cold."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Yao flexed her fingers.
My fingers are a little stiff.
Po Yue poured another cup of tea and said to the outsider, "Can Feng, come in."
The carriage curtain swayed, and Canfeng poked his head in: "What's wrong?"
Po Yue sipped her tea and instructed, "She's too cold. Circulate some internal energy into her to prevent her from catching a cold."
Canfeng readily climbed onto the carriage: "Princess, I have offended you."
"Thank you, Canfeng!" Yuan Yao held her teacup and took a small sip. "Actually, I'll just take a hot bath when I get to the inn..."
"No!" Po Yue's round, dark eyes glared at Can Feng: "Transfer her internal energy!"
Canfeng glanced at him helplessly, then said to Yuan Yao, "Princess, give me a quarter of an hour."
"Oh well."
Yuan Yao took off her cloak and sat with her back to Canfeng.
While channeling his inner energy into her, Canfeng looked at Poyue and said, "The black mist on your face..."
Po Yue sipped her tea and replied, "They've all been removed from here on out."
Canfeng was silent for a moment, then smiled slightly: "Very well."
Listening to their conversation, Yuan Yao realized that Can Feng wasn't surprised at all when he saw that Po Yue wasn't covering her face with black mist.
Huh...
The carriage slowly started moving and entered the city.
The inn is the best in Yicheng.
Open the window and you can see the mountain where the glutinous rice balls and rice cakes are located...
As the lingering breeze brought lunch, her ears turned slightly red: "Princess, the glutinous rice balls and rice cakes are currently enjoying their sweet time together, so perhaps... perhaps the Princess should wait a couple of days before going up the mountain?"
Deep affection?
Yuan Yao's face felt slightly hot.
Her glutinous rice balls have finally grown up.
Harmful!
Yuan Yao counted the time on her fingers: "Give them two more days. In two days, I'll take the glutinous rice balls and head to Nanxi Town."
She didn't want to wait any longer.
She... really misses her father so much...
