Quick Wear: Saving Three Thousand Matches

Jin Jiusi and Yun Chenyu slowly walked out of the heavy door of the main pavilion.

She raised her head slightly, her gaze passing through the layers of pavilions and courtyards, and finally fixed on the rolling, mist-shrouded mountains in the distance.

Those beautiful and deep eyes seemed a little dazed at this moment.

After a long while, she finally spoke softly, "Since he doesn't want to, then don't make it difficult for him."

Everyone has his own destiny. All she can do is, if the King of Hell takes his life at three o'clock in the morning, she will do her utmost to ensure that he lives until five o'clock.

Just as they walked away, Feng Qingcang stood quietly in front of the window, with an unconcealable look of loneliness on his face.

His tall and majestic figure now looked somewhat lonely and fragile.

Seeing this, the steward standing by couldn't help but step forward and asked cautiously, "Pavilion Master, why don't you let the Young Master stay a few more days? Your health..."

Having said this, the steward paused for a moment, as if he had some reservations. However, seeing Feng Qingcang's resolute expression, he mustered up the courage to continue, "If the Young Pavilion Master were by my side, perhaps it would be better."

However, Feng Qingcang did not take his eyes away from the mountain scenery outside the window, and replied calmly: "She is not only my daughter, but also the future of Donghua Nation."

Today, all the surrounding countries are eyeing Donghua covetously, and Xiaojiu is the best candidate he had deduced to break the deadlock.

At this critical moment, Donghua needs her more than ever to shoulder the responsibilities of the royal family.

Thinking of this, Feng Qingcang's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile.

After hearing this, the manager couldn't help but sigh deeply, then shook his head helplessly and said nothing more.

He knew very well that the Pavilion Master always put national affairs first and never cared much about personal gains and losses.

But even so, looking at the Pavilion Master's increasingly haggard face and weak body, his heart was still filled with worry and heartache.

A maid walked in respectfully, "Pavilion Master, this is what the Young Pavilion Master asked me to give to you."

As she spoke, she handed a letter and a small white porcelain bottle to the steward.

The steward took the envelope and the small porcelain bottle with doubt and handed them to Feng Qingcang.

Feng Qingcang's hands trembled as he took the envelope and immediately opened it. "Old man, a nation's destiny is bestowed by Heaven, and cannot be reversed by one man. You sacrificed your own imperial aura to enhance the nation's fortune. This is defying Heaven. Now you're already suffering the backlash, and your health is rapidly deteriorating. This must be the reason for your seclusion. Take one of the pills in the small porcelain bottle, and it will counteract the backlash for six months. Remember, take it and cherish your life."

After reading the letter, Feng Qingcang's expression changed more than a dozen times.

He never imagined that his daughter knew everything.

What he didn't expect was that there was actually a pill in this world that could resist the backlash on his body, and it was given to him by his daughter.

He looked down at the small porcelain bottle in his hand, his expression complicated and relieved.

At noon, Jin Jiusi and Yun Chenyu arrived at the foot of the mountain.

Feng Wu, who had been waiting since morning, suddenly appeared in front of her and knelt down. "Your Highness, I have deserted my post and beg for your punishment."

Jin Jiusi was quite surprised to see him, "Why don't you go up the mountain?"

"Earlier today, I saw people from the mountain coming down to feed the horses. I learned that Your Highness was coming down the mountain today, so I waited here." Feng Wuditou explained seriously.

Jin Jiusi raised his eyebrows slightly, "Get up, Yun Xiang has already told me."

Feng Wu quickly stood up and bowed to Yun Chenyu, "Thank you, Prime Minister Yun, for escorting Your Highness all the way."

Yun Chenyu just nodded slightly at him and didn't say much.

"There are several people in the secret room of the Lanyue Inn. Go and check if they are dead or not. If they are still alive, find a few people to carry them back to the Imperial City." Jin Jiusi ordered.

Feng Wu was slightly surprised, as he had been to that inn before.

I just thought it was robbed by bandits, but I didn't expect it to be...

"But if your Highness returns, on the way..."

"With the Prime Minister here, who dares to touch me?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Wu bowed to Yun Chenyu again and said, "I hope Prime Minister Yun will escort His Highness back to the palace safely."

"Ah."

Yun Chenyu was still as quiet as ever.

Feng Wu took the order and left, while Jin Jiusi and Yun Chenyu set out on their return journey.

The carriage moved forward slowly. Jin Jiusi closed his eyes and rested inside the carriage, while Yun Chenyu drove outside.

"Your Highness, those people in the inn..." Yun Chenyu broke the silence.

Jin Jiusi opened his eyes, a faint smile playing on his lips, "Since he is the culprit who caused you to be poisoned, it is more appropriate to let you handle it."

Yun Chenyu chuckled softly and said softly, "Then I would like to thank Your Highness."

"Why is there such a need for such empty formalities between the Prime Minister and me?"

"I will obey your Highness..."

The carriage traveled for a long time and came to a path in the dense forest. Suddenly, a rain of arrows came.

Yun Chenyu quickly drew out the soft sword from his waist and knocked down the flying arrow.

He immediately entered the carriage, protecting Jin Jiusi behind him with a cold look in his eyes.

Kong Kong suddenly said, "Master, it's that old witch from the Yun family."

"Isn't she under house arrest?" Jin Jiusi asked unhappily.

Kong Kong: [Her lover rescued her and even spent one hundred taels of gold to buy the life of the man in front of you from the Killer Pavilion.]

"Is that so? I thought it was my enemy." Jin Jiusi was calm, with a hint of regret in his words.

Outside the carriage, someone was approaching.

Yun Chenyu clenched his fists and said, "Your Highness, don't worry. This time, I will protect you." After saying that, he flew out and started fighting with the attacker.

Kong Kong: Is it possible that you recruited these people?

Yun Chenyu's moves were so fierce that several people fell down in a short while.

A slight smell of blood wafted into the carriage, and Jin Jiusi frowned.

Jin Jiusi pulled out the arrow that shot into the carriage, stared at it for a moment, and then threw it out.

The man who was fighting with Yun Chenyu was shot through the body by an arrow that flew out of the carriage.

The entire arrow was stained red with blood and was stuck straight into a tree trunk not far away.

Jin Jiusi covered his mouth with one hand and yawned, and with the other hand he opened the curtain and shouted to Yun Chenyu, "I'm sleepy, please return to the palace quickly."

Yun Chenyu responded, but his hands did not stop moving.

He had dealt with all the people outside, but the man just now should be as powerful as him.

And a single arrow from His Highness could kill him...

Yun Chenyu sheathed his sword, turned around and walked towards the carriage. His body was stained with the enemy's blood, but he did not look embarrassed at all.

"I'm sorry to have frightened Your Highness. I will definitely find out the truth about what happened today." Yun Chenyu said, looking at the black token in his hand with a grim look in his eyes.

Oh, the Killer Pavilion, that’s quite a big deal.

His Highness has just returned to the Imperial City and rarely interacts with others, so it is impossible for him to have enemies.

It seems that these killers were sent by his enemies.

Hopefully, it won't be her again...
