In the corner of the east wall of the farmer's yard, there is a ripe green apricot.

Wen Qiqi sat on a small stool, drooling as she looked at the apricots on the tree.

Die Jiu and Xin Yi immediately realized that the young lady was greedy and felt anxious and distressed.

Even if a woman in the common people is pregnant, she will be pampered by the whole family and can eat whatever she wants.

Miss, you are the daughter of the Wen family, but now you are wandering with the team. If you want to eat something sour, you can't pick it yourself...

"Your apricots are so delicious! Can I pick a few? I've always liked sour ones since I was a kid!"

Die Jiu simply acted like a greedy girl and spoke to the farmer's wife with a smiling face.

The wife said quickly, "Of course, of course... You can pick whatever you want, young man. The ones from the tree in my yard are better and a little sweeter. The ones from the tree in the backyard are more sour."

"Then I won't be polite. I'll pick some of them."

Die Jiu went to pick apricots without saying a word.

The Fourteenth Prince saw Die Jiu jumping under the tree for a long time but couldn't reach her, so he went over and reached out to hook down a branch.

Die Jiu looked at the Fourteenth Prince with gratitude...

The Fourteenth Prince nodded: "Pick it!"

Die Jiu didn't say anything and quickly picked a dozen of them.

Xinyi ran to the backyard and picked quite a few.

"Well... Master, these apricots taste pretty good, please have some!"

Die Jiu pretended to love sour food and ate sour apricots in big mouthfuls, feeling like her teeth were about to fall out from the sour taste.

"It's delicious... Um... Fourteenth Prince, would you like to try it?"

Anyway, the farmers had gone back, so she whispered to the Fourteenth Prince to have some green apricots as well.

The Fourteenth Prince shook his head: "No!"

These apricots don’t look delicious. I don’t know where Die Jiu got the appetite from.

Wen Qiqi didn't dare eat the green apricots in front of the Fourteenth Prince. She didn't like sour food since she was a child, and the Fourteenth Prince knew it.

But now she wished she could eat all the apricots in Die Jiu's hand in one breath!

"I do not want it!"

Wen Qiqi said firmly, turning her head to the side.

Out of sight, out of mouth.

Die Jiu's eyes were red, and she pretended to be careless and said, "Then I'll take it back and eat it slowly!"

Wen Qiqi nodded, understanding what he meant.

About half an hour later, the soldiers who went to buy wine came back with the man.

The Fourteenth Prince thanked the man, filled two barrels of rice wine at the man's house, and gave him five more taels of silver as a fee for running errands.

The man refused to accept it no matter what. He said that the army could pass by his house during the march and drink his rice wine. He said that he would talk about it with his descendants in the future.

Everyone went back together, and the Fourteenth Prince and Wen Qiqi walked side by side.

The Fourteenth Prince looked at the curling smoke from the village and smelled the faint aroma of cooking. He suddenly said, "In fact, if I were an ordinary citizen, enjoying the worldly life and having a good person by my side...it would not be a bad thing."

He had said this to Wen Qiqi back then.

The Thirteenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince were fighting endlessly, and Wen Qiqi was deeply involved in it and would not listen to anyone's advice.

The fourteenth prince later told Wen Qiqi that he should take Qiqi away from Kyoto and find a village to live in hiding...

Qiqi rejected him.

He would rather give up his noble status as a prince for Qiqi, but Qiqi ultimately let down the Fourteenth Prince.

The Fourteenth Prince understood that if the person who said this was General Ye, Wen Qiqi would definitely follow him forever without hesitation even if they were at the ends of the earth or on grasslands or deserts.

Love or not love, the difference is always too big.

And this gap cannot be resolved by childhood sweethearts or wishful thinking.

Everyone in the army can have a drink tonight.

The Thirteenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince were slightly intoxicated by what they drank, and both recalled the past, but neither of them spoke.

Now Qiqi is by her side, but she only treats them as brothers.

"Zhang Xiaojiu! Didn't you say you can drink a lot? Do you dare to toast the Thirteenth Prince? The Prince can drink a lot!"

Xinyi said deliberately.

Die Jiu looked at the Thirteenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince with a smile.

"Why not? I'm afraid the two princes don't dare to drink with me!"

The Fourteenth Prince raised the corner of his mouth, smiled playfully, picked up the wine bowl and drank it all.

Die Jiu also drank a small bowl.

"Thirteenth Prince, Zhang Xiaojiu would like to offer you a toast on behalf of my young master! Thank you for your care along the way... Thank you!"

Die Jiu picked up the wine bowl and drank it down in one gulp.

The Thirteenth Prince was slightly shocked. Die Jiu was Wen Qiqi's maid, so he was naturally not unfamiliar with her. However, he never remembered that she liked drinking so much before.

"Drink less, be careful not to get drunk at night!"

"Hahaha, no no, please, Thirteenth Prince!"

Die Jiu acted very generously, and the Thirteenth Prince didn't want to offend a girl, so he also picked up the bowl and drank it all.

When Xinyi saw this, he struck while the iron was hot and walked over to start toasting.

"I am toasting on behalf of my young master. You two princes must drink! I will drink first as a sign of respect..."

After a round of heavy drinking, it was already getting dark, so the Thirteenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince also walked into the tent, intending to rest early.

Die Jiu and Xin Yi went into Wen Qiqi's tent. They both smelled of alcohol. Wen Qiqi asked worriedly, "Are you not drunk?"

"No, we both secretly took hangover medicine. We just vomited for a while, but we're fine now."

Diejiu saw that Qiqi had packed her things, so she quickly put the bag on her back and threw another bag to Xinyi: "Miss, let's go!"

Now that they had left the Lu Mansion, the two of them no longer called Wen Qiqi Madam, but just called her Miss, just like when they were at the Wen Mansion.

The three of them tiptoed out of the tent. The candles in the tents of the Thirteenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince had been extinguished.

Wen Qiqi looked at the letter she had left in the tent, her eyes moist.

If she hadn't been helpless, how could she have escaped from Kyoto by taking advantage of the two princes' kindness to her...

Hey……

The baby in the belly doesn't wait for anyone.

In three months at most, you will start to see that you are pregnant.

If he stayed in the army like this, he would inevitably be murdered and would also cause trouble for the two princes.

Thinking of this, Wen Qiqi made up his mind. He took Die Jiu and Xinyi and quietly avoided the soldiers on guard in the army. He went directly behind the tent, and then followed the path they had just taken from the village and quickly climbed up the back mountain.

The mountain behind the village was quite steep and pitch black, so the three of them had a very hard time climbing.

"Xinyi...you walk in front, don't let the young lady get bit by a poisonous snake. I'll walk behind, if there's a wild beast, you protect the young lady and run quickly!"

Die Jiu said in a low voice while panting.

"What nonsense! Xiaojiu!"

Wen Qiqi took Xinyi with one hand and Diejiu with the other: "You two have been with me for many years, and now you have suffered for me! Although we are master and servant, we are also relatives! So... from today on, we will live together and die together!"
