Wuhen stood aside, watching Ji Fengyao's fair and nimble fingers skillfully apply medicine to Shang Xiye's face. The tears she had held back all night finally fell: "Your Highness is indeed only right when he is with the Princess. As long as the Princess is there, Your Highness will get better every day."
Unlike that woman, the prince always has endless bad luck whenever he gets involved with her!
The prince treated her with such sincerity, yet she still harmed him!
Ji Fengyao applied the dressing to Shang Xiye's wound and secured it with a beautiful cicada wing, quite satisfied with her work.
Hearing someone crying nearby, Ji Fengyao turned around and saw Wuhen, a man of steel, crying his eyes out. She couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Wuhen, why are you crying? The prince's face is almost healed. Aren't you happy?"
"No! Please take care of the Prince, Your Highness. I will take my leave now!"
Wuhen wiped the tears from her face with her sleeve, then with a half-smile, decisively turned and left.
"Is he happy or unhappy?" Ji Fengyao asked Shang Xiye, completely baffled, feeling that the people under his command were all quite eccentric.
Shang Xiye's thin lips curved slightly: "He's probably just too happy to think straight."
Well, not only was there no trace of him, but he also seemed to be so happy tonight that he almost went crazy.
He kissed his wife, and the naive young woman even responded to him!
"The weather is hot now, and the wind is not breathable, so we need to change the dressing frequently. Tomorrow, it would be best if I rode in the same carriage with Your Highness," Ji Fengyao said, looking up and asking with her eyes.
Looking at her increasingly charming appearance, Shang Xiye felt a tingling sensation in his heart. He tried his best to restrain himself and did not reach out to pull her into his arms and rub her. His voice became even lower and deeper: "The princess is the principal wife, and she should ride in the same carriage as me."
However, we will take a boat tomorrow instead of a car.
He didn't want to bring this up now, not wanting to remind her of those unpleasant people and things at such a pleasant moment.
Ji Fengyao nodded and said nothing more.
Seeing that she had put away the jade bottle containing the worm and the flesh, Shang Xiye asked with some disgust, "Why don't you burn it? What's the point of keeping it?"
"This cannot be burned, I have a great use for it," Ji Fengyao said, raising her small face and smiling sweetly.
"What's the use?" Shang Xiye had a vague guess in his heart.
The little bandit girl reverted to her usual playful and unreliable self: "I'll raise a Gu worm for fun, let it produce little cubs, and if anyone dares to mess with me, I'll cook those little cubs and feed them to them!"
Shang Xiye was disgusted, and his expression was indescribable.
His wife seems to be a bit difficult to deal with; he could easily end up being fed insects if he's not careful. It looks like he'll have to be more careful in the future.
Ji Fengyao looked up and saw Shang Xiye, the village idiot, laughing so hard he rolled around on the bed.
Shang Xiye was itching to pounce on her, but the little bandit quickly got up and ran away.
By the time he finished bathing and acupuncture, it was already late at night.
Thinking that he had to get up early to leave tomorrow, Shang Xiye gave up the idea of ​​bothering her. He held the little darling who had just fallen asleep in his arms tightly, leaned down and stole a little sweetness between her lips and teeth, and then fell asleep contentedly.
The next morning, the carriages of all the accompanying families waited at various intersections along the main road.
It wasn't until she got on the carriage that Ji Fengyao learned that the place where the Summer Palace was located was called Tongyou, a place of water and marshland, with a waterway leading directly to it. It would take less than half a month to reach the palace by boat from Liting Ferry, which was two miles outside the South Gate.
The royal procession was a grand affair, and despite it being early in the morning, it still attracted a large crowd of onlookers.
