On the day of travel.

In order to be able to see Yu Wangfei all the time, Chu Yuheng sat in Yu Wangfei's carriage on the pretext of telling Yu Wangfei about the customs and culture of Jiangnan.

Since the people he brought with him on this trip were all soldiers under Chu Yuheng's command, they did not talk much. On the contrary, they deliberately provided him with opportunities to get close to Yu Wangfei.

Just as the two were exchanging ambiguous greetings in the carriage, the advancing queue suddenly stopped.

Chu Yuheng, puzzled, lifted the car curtain and asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Why don't you leave?"

This trip to the south of the Yangtze River is time-sensitive and has a heavy mission. He must not waste time on the road, otherwise Chu Aotian will definitely take advantage of his absence to stir up a bloody storm in the capital.

"Your Highness, it's Miss Lu." The guard pointed to the front of the queue somewhat awkwardly. He didn't know how to explain why Lu Xiaoting appeared.

Following the direction pointed by the guard, Chu Yuheng saw an uninvited guest.

Lu Xiaoting was dressed in military uniform and holding a red tasseled spear, and she walked towards the carriage deliberately.

"Your Highness, it's me." Lu Xiaoting smiled and walked to the side of the carriage, responding enthusiastically, "Your Highness, won't you let me get on and sit?"

Hearing Lu Xiaoting's voice, Yu Wangfei immediately closed his eyes in disgust.

She is really a haunting presence, she is everywhere.

If Chu Fei didn't need their Lu family, Yu Wangfei would have dealt with Lu Xiaoting just like he dealt with the Gu family.

"What are you doing here?" Chu Yuheng frowned slightly and asked with some dissatisfaction.

After the last incident, Chu Yuheng's impression of Lu Xiaoting was greatly reduced. Before, he just thought that Lu Xiaoting was still young and treated her as a younger sister. Even if she made a mistake, Chu Yuheng would not care too much about it.

But she actually dared to openly tell the people that she was the Ninth Prince's Consort, and even spoke ill of Yu Wangfei in front of everyone, so Chu Yuheng became a little annoyed with her.

But it was just annoyance, not hatred. After all, they had a comradeship, and Chu Fei needed the Lu family now. After Chu Yuheng warned her, he planned to turn a blind eye to Lu Xiaoting.

"The prince didn't take me with him when he went to the south of the Yangtze River. I have expressed my feelings to His Majesty, so His Majesty allowed me to go with him." Lu Xiaoting raised her head proudly.

She knew from the beginning that Chu Yuheng was going to Jiangnan, but she didn't know that Yu Wangfei would also go with him.

When Lu Xiaoting heard from Yu Wangfeng that Yu Wangfei was going to Jiangnan with Chu Yuheng, she was so angry that she wanted to throw Yu Wangfei into the sea. She absolutely could not let the two of them be alone together for such a long time.

So Lu Xiaoting went to the palace specially and told His Majesty about her feelings, and then she got the opportunity to go together.

As for why the emperor agreed to let her go, it was because the emperor also wanted to see who Chu Yuheng would choose. After all, Lu Xiaoting represented the Lu family, while Yu Wangfei was alone.

"Since His Majesty has agreed, please come in, sister." Yu Wangfei deliberately spoke to indicate that she was also in the carriage.

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoting's face suddenly darkened.

When she came just now, she didn't see Yu Wangfei, and was wondering if Yu Wangfei didn't follow her. She didn't expect that they were actually sitting in the same carriage. It was really a testament to the moral decline of the world.

After hearing what Yu Wangfei said, Chu Yuheng didn't know what to say, so he took the initiative to get out of the carriage and let Lu Xiaoting get in by herself.

Because Chu Yuheng was traveling in a low-key manner this time, the carriage was not big and could not accommodate three people.

"No need, I will just ride with the prince." Lu Xiaoting wanted to be alone with Chu Yuheng, "We rode together in Xizhou before and fought together."

"Are you really not going to go up?" Chu Yuheng asked, "Since you don't want to take the carriage, then I will."

According to the original plan, he and Yu Wangfei were supposed to ride in this carriage together. If Lu Xiaoting hadn't shown up halfway, there was no way he would have gotten off the carriage.

Since Lu Xiaoting didn't want to go, he could just get back on the carriage.

"Wait." Lu Xiaoting hurriedly reached out to stop him.

She never thought that if she didn't get on the carriage, Chu Yuheng would get on. She thought that Chu Yuheng would ride on horseback with her like before, leaving Yu Wangfei sitting alone in the carriage.

"Wang Fei has invited me, so of course I have to go up." Lu Xiaoting forced a smile and sat in the carriage.

No matter what, she could never let Chu Yuheng and Yu Wangfei be alone together.

Seeing Lu Xiaoting coming up, Yu Wangfei subconsciously moved to the side, not wanting to have too much contact with her.

Chu Yuheng sighed helplessly, got on his horse again, and began to order the team to move forward.

"Wang Fei, long time no see." Lu Xiaoting greeted deliberately.

But Yu Wangfei didn't want to chat with him at all, so she pretended to open the curtains and appreciate the scenery outside the window.

Suddenly, she seemed to see something and her face became heavy.

Seeing that Yu Wangfei ignored her, Lu Xiaoting said sarcastically in anger, "You really think you are the Ninth Prince's Consort, but now you ignore me."

"What did you say?" Yu Wangfei lowered the curtains, came back to his senses and questioned Lu Xiaoting.

"Nothing." Lu Xiaoting snorted coldly.

"I don't want to talk to you too much." Yu Wangfei didn't give her a good look.

"Just pretend that what happened before never happened. I won't target you and distract the prince this time." Lu Xiaoting brought up the topic of the two of them living in peace temporarily with a cold face.

Yu Wangfei strongly agreed with this point. She didn't want to have too much contact with Lu Xiaoting, and she didn't want to make Chu Yuheng tired because of her private affairs with Lu Xiaoting.

"Okay, I promise you. But I can't pretend that nothing happened. I only promise you that during this period of time, as long as you don't provoke me, I won't quarrel with you."

"Then it's a deal. I hope you'll keep your word."

After driving for about a day, Chu Yuheng led everyone to a wilderness inn to rest before it got dark. They planned to rest here for a night and continue their journey at dawn the next day.

Upon seeing this, the innkeeper enthusiastically introduced their room to Chu Yuheng.

"There are only two rooms left in the upper house. Would you like one, sir?" the shopkeeper asked with a smile.

"Okay, let's get two upper rooms. As for the other rooms, let my brothers stay there." Chu Yuheng suddenly grinned.

Above the two rooms, Lu Xiaoting has one, and he and Yu Wangfei have one, which is naturally the best.

Their conversation happened to be overheard by Lu Xiaoting, who came over. She naturally took over the conversation: "Then I will share a room with Wang Fei, and Your Highness will share a room by himself, is that okay?"

After saying that, she did not forget to look at Yu Wangfei behind her, deliberately letting her hear her suggestion.

After these words were spoken, Chu Yuheng's face darkened again. He didn't book two rooms upstairs with the intention of sleeping in separate rooms with Yu Wangfei.
