Both worlds are like dreams

Chapter 489 Chasing and Fighting

Seeing him walk away, Xue Huang said, "This letter will be delivered to Shangyang City soon. You don't have to do anything. As long as you show up in Shangyang City, someone will take you to see the ghost doctor."

Yue Jiuyun was still in shock, but after he reacted, he quickly thanked her, "Thank you, young lady."

"You're welcome. Just remember to bring along the two great doctors from Medicine Immortal Valley."

"sure."

"I have a small favor to do you."

"Girl, please tell me."

"We plan to leave now. Please keep our whereabouts secret, Master."

"You two can stay a little longer to give me a chance to thank you for your hospitality."

Xue Huang shook her head. "I have something urgent to do, so I won't stay any longer. See you in the rivers and lakes."

Yue Jiuyun had no choice but to stop trying to keep them and quietly sent them away from Lubai Villa.

Xue Huang tasted the cakes while riding a horse. The more she ate, the more she frowned. The cakes looked good, but unexpectedly they tasted so-so.

She found a forest and fed the birds, then continued riding forward.

Mo Yunchen didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and was actually in the mood to take her around for a stroll.

Along the way, we traveled around the mountains and rivers, tasted delicious food, and went to places where people from all walks of life gathered.

After three days of stopping and starting, Xue Huang finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"I don't have the letter of exoneration anymore. If your majesty asks for an inquiry, I can do nothing about it."

Mo Yunchen was feeding the horse water, and he said calmly, "He won't do that as long as you are here."

"So you are using my name to disobey the imperial decree?"

"This is not considered disobeying the imperial decree."

"I don't understand where you get the leisure time from."

"Maybe I have been carrying too much in the past, and now I finally have a moment of relaxation."

Xue Huang looked at the picturesque scenery in front of her. Such moments were indeed rare.

She doesn't know how many more moments like this there will be in the rest of her life, and she should really enjoy and cherish them.

Living in the present moment was something she had forgotten about for a long time.

"This road is not fun at all." Xue Huang said lightly.

Mo Yunchen looked at her with a deep gaze, "Because the destination is Shuanglin City?"

“Because I’ve walked here many times.”

"is it a lot?"

"Go west and you'll reach Guigu. We go out to buy things every year. Shuanglin City and Sanbai City are the places we visit most often, so this road is not unfamiliar to us at all."

"I think it's quite interesting. Since you are familiar with it, do you know what is ahead?"

Xue Huang thought for a moment and said, "If we go further, we should reach the last town before Shuanglin City, and it will also be the last inn we can stay in. I heard that the inn has a very famous dessert called peach snow cake. We should be able to get there before dark."

Mo Yunchen got on his horse and said, "Let's go."

Xue Huang did not object and rode away.

Just as she said, when the sun set, they arrived at the inn called Taoyun Cottage.

As the sun sets, the sea of clouds is brilliant, and the streets are filled with the aroma of peach snow cake, which is fresh, elegant and appetizing.

Xue Huang didn’t eat any decent snacks along the way and went straight to Taohua Cottage.

Mo Yunchen chose a room on the second floor and asked the waiter to bring her a table of food, including the peach snow cake she had been craving for.

Xue Huang was not polite either. Half of the two thousand taels of gold in his hand belonged to her anyway, so she sat down and feasted.

But the smell of the roast duck was strange, so she pushed it aside and said, "This is not delicious."

"You haven't eaten yet."

Xue Huang frowned, "It makes me uncomfortable just by smelling it."

Mo Yunchen pushed the other dishes in front of her, stood up and put the plate of duck meat far away, but his eyes were attracted by the window.

He frowned slightly and said indifferently, "He actually caught up with me."

Xue Huang had a bad feeling, so she immediately stood up and went to the window, and saw two people sitting in the lobby on the first floor of the inn.

One of them is Guan Canghai and the other is Lou Sheng.

Guan Canghai was still asking the waiter if he had seen a man and a woman.

Fortunately, there were so many men and women who came and went that the waiter said he couldn't remember clearly.

Xue Huang was somewhat helpless. She didn't believe that Lou Sheng's appearance here was a coincidence, but why did Guan Canghai come to join in the fun?

Doesn’t he worship the ghost doctor?

In the letter Xuehuang wrote, she also specifically mentioned the matter of Guan Canghai, just to avoid him bothering her, but she didn't expect that he would come anyway.

Mo Yunchen glanced at her and asked, "How do you plan to deal with this?"

Xue Huang was silent for a moment, and without hesitation, she said, "Eat first, then we'll talk." After she finished speaking, she smelled the plate of duck meat in his hand and suddenly felt nauseous, "Take it away, it smells terrible."

Mo Yunchen had no choice but to call the waiter and ask him to replace the dish with something else.

This room has a particularly good view, with windows in the front and back, so you can see both the lobby downstairs and the green mountains and clear waters outside the window.

After eating and drinking, Xuehuang leaned against the window to enjoy the scenery. She really didn't want Lou Sheng's appearance to affect her mood.

But he just had to find fault.

I don't know how he was sure that she was here. He stood alone in the lobby, holding a sword and blocking the way. He was full of murderous intent. Not only did people outside dare not come in, but he also scared away several guests.

The shopkeeper knew that people from the underworld were not easy to mess with, so he didn't dare to say anything. He just apologized with a bitter face.

Lou Sheng said directly, "The opponent I am waiting for is in the store right now. If she doesn't show up, I will never put down my sword. I am a man of my word, and I will do what I say."

The shopkeeper asked him who they were, and he just said they were a man and a woman, who must have covered their faces and looked quite mysterious.

After a while, someone knocked on their door.

"Sir, Miss, do you recognize the guest downstairs? If there is any grudge, please move to another place to settle it. Our shop still needs to do business."

Xue Huang replied directly: "I don't know him."

After saying that, she closed the door, ignored Lou Sheng, and went to bed.

And Lou Sheng was really persistent. He actually sat downstairs all night.

Xue Huang glanced down while eating breakfast, and he was just called by Guan Canghai to have breakfast.

Not stupid, he knows how to eat.

Xuehuang took a bite of the steamed bun and frowned. The taste was very different from what she had eaten before.

She put down her chopsticks, picked up the egg custard, smelled it, and immediately put it down. She actually felt nauseous at the smell.

"Did they change the cook? Why is the food so bad?"

Mo Yunchen raised his eyebrows, "But after living in the open air for the past few days, his taste has become more sophisticated. I think this chef's cooking skills are no less than the one you brought to the palace."

"If it's delicious, just eat it all." Xue Huang rolled her eyes at him, then fell back onto the couch and began to sleep.

Maybe she was too tired these days, not only did she have a poor appetite, but she also couldn't muster up any energy.

Mo Yunchen finished his breakfast alone and walked out silently.

When Xue Huang woke up, he had not returned yet, and more than an hour had passed.

She got up and looked downstairs. Lou Sheng was still there, and apart from Guan Canghai, there were almost no other guests staying there.

The guests who stayed there last night left in a hurry early in the morning because Lou Sheng's sword intent was like the howling of ghosts and wolves in the dark night.

The shopkeeper had a sad face, as if his mother had died, and came to her door again to beg for mercy.

"Girl, I've racked my brains and thought that you are the most likely person they are talking about. Why don't you go and meet them? It's not easy for me to run this inn until today! Please have mercy on me."

Xue Huang was speechless and angry. She immediately opened the window and looked at Lou Sheng. "Senior, just come to me. Why make things difficult for others?"

Lou Sheng's eyes flashed with excitement, "You promised to fight me, why don't you keep your word?"

"When have I ever broken my promise?" Xue Huang said coldly. "I did agree to fight you, but I didn't say when."

"This is a good time."

"I feel bad."

"Why?"

"I'm in a bad mood. I don't want to fight with you."

Lou Sheng frowned, "What kind of reason is this?"

Xue Huang didn't care about the reason. She just felt that she was a little irritable at the moment, and the more he wanted to hit her, the more she would refuse to agree.

"Anyway, I'm not happy. If you insist on forcing me to take action, I might have to complain to someone. I hope you can bear the consequences."

As for the people she was looking for, they were probably the royal families of Dongchu and Beiling.

Thinking of this, Xue Huang regretted how she had just realized how strong her backbone was now. She would certainly not slack off when it was time to maintain the face of the two countries, but she could not back down when it was time to bully others!

Lou Sheng didn't say anything and looked very unhappy.
