I'm already dressed like a fool, what's wrong with taking the regent into the bridal chamb

Feng Yunxiao shook his head. "I'm not sure about that. We didn't encounter any ferocious beasts during that period. When your people arrive, please be more careful. If there are any ferocious beasts, avoid them."

"it is good."

Wen Qingzhi agreed, "If you feel like it's not working, tell me. We'll stop and rest."

It was a caring word, but Feng Junxiao felt it sounded a little awkward.

He frowned twice, turned back to look at Wen Qingzhi, and seeing that she didn't seem to be joking, nodded, "Yeah."

joke!

At this time, how can a man say that he is not good enough?

Even if it doesn't work, it has to work!

The two continued on their journey. After about two hours, Feng Yunxiao's frail body reached its limit. His figure trembled as he moved forward. Wen Qingzhi, watching from behind, suddenly reached out and grabbed him.

"That's enough. Let's stop here for today. If you keep going, your body will be ruined."

After saying that, she pulled Feng Junxiao into the space to rest.

That night, Wen Qingzhi asked the system to monitor every move outside to see if any ferocious beasts could be encountered.

The next morning, she got up and asked, and the system said that no ferocious beasts were detected.

This made her feel confused.

As the two continued on their journey, Wen Qingzhi told Feng Yunxiao about her observations from the previous night. Feng Yunxiao wasn't surprised to hear this and nodded, "I certainly didn't see any ferocious beasts when I was there before."

Wen Qingzhi was confused and said, "Forget it, let's go and hurry up."

Because Feng Junxiao was injured, the two of them didn't find the entrance to the valley that Feng Junxiao mentioned until the afternoon.

The entrance was hidden in a cave behind a mountain stream, hidden behind the weeds. If Wen Qingzhi hadn't known about it, she would never have imagined that there was a paradise behind it.

Feng Yunxiao said that it is necessary to rely on the two trees on the side to distinguish them. There are mostly birch trees in this forest, and there are only a few pine trees.

There happened to be two of them at the entrance of the mountain stream.

Wen Qingzhi was speechless about this way of identification and did not expose it.

Entering the valley, Wen Qingzhi was captivated by the scenery. It was surrounded by vast mountains, and not far away, a waterfall could be seen cascading down, the gurgling sound of the water was mesmerizing.

She saw a dilapidated bamboo house not far away, which should be where Feng Yunxiao lived when he was recuperating from his injuries.

"It's getting late. Let's rest for the night and return to Beijing tomorrow."

Feng Yunxiao found a stone to sit on and analyzed the situation here for her.

"When the time comes, we can set up a trap at the entrance. The terrain here is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and with its strong concealment, it will generally not be discovered."

"here."

He pointed to the wide open space in front of him and said, "We can build a house here. There are plenty of trees outside, so it will definitely be enough."

"That's the spring, and beyond that is a larger open space. It's perfect for farming. I sent someone to check out the soil there a while ago. It's top-quality black soil, extremely fertile."

When he said this, he felt an inexplicable longing.

"At the beginning, I also thought... that when I get old, I will live in seclusion here."

After saying that, he smiled bitterly and said, "It seems there is no chance."

He sighed, "If there's turmoil outside, it won't matter. Even if it's a change of dynasty, it will calm down in a few years. Then, your people can gradually go out and integrate into the market."

"it is good."

Wen Qingzhi spoke calmly and pulled him into the space to rest.

At night, the two of them came out and lit a bonfire in the valley. While looking at the starry sky, Wen Qingzhi smiled for the first time.

"gorgeous."

It was the first time that the two of them sat together so calmly, talking about nothing else except love.

Without the usual intrigues, Feng Junxiao felt that Wen Qingzhi was particularly beautiful at this moment.

Wen Qingzhi looked as pure and radiant as a fairy under the stars. Her white dress added a new sense of mystery to her, like a holy fairy.

"Well, it's beautiful."

Feng Junxiao followed suit and quickly looked away after realizing what he had said.

In order to travel earlier the next day, the two returned to the space to rest. Feng Yunxiao had many questions about this space, but he didn't ask. He knew that he wouldn't get any information.

Half a month later, the two changed their clothes and arrived in the capital. When Wen Qingzhi returned to the Marquis' Mansion, everyone in the mansion was shocked.

After learning the purpose of her visit, Zhang He and others immediately went to the small mountain village to inform them, asking them to leave the city one by one and meet at a secret village outside Fengyunxiao City.

She had originally worried that someone was watching the mansion, but she was told that there were indeed people there at the beginning. However, they withdrew nearly a month after she left.

Chang Yan looked at Feng Junxiao with a nervous expression.

Feng Junxiao: "Speak."

Chang Yan, who was being watched, immediately said cautiously: "Nothing, just a rumor..."

Chang Yan saw Feng Junxiao's unfriendly expression and didn't dare to speak.

After hesitating for a long time, he said cautiously: "There are rumors that your Highness has met with an accident..."

"Why, is there a funeral in the palace for this king?"

"No, there is no news from the palace."

"Don't worry about that. Just think about how to get out of the city smoothly."

If it were in the past, Feng Yunxiao would only need to give an order.

But now, he comes back secretly, how dare he reveal his identity?

"The tunnel of my shop can lead to the outside of the city."

Zheng Yuedao.

"No."

Wen Qingzhi refused and said, "If we leave through my sister's shop and it's discovered, my sister's whole family will be implicated."

"Even if you don't leave me, once you all disappear, the Zheng family will be blamed. On the surface, you and our Zheng family are one."

"Father and mother have returned home and sent a letter to let us know everything is fine. From the day you left with the Regent, we have been planning our next move."

"Lingnan is a mountainous region with long and arduous journeys. Furthermore, the Zheng family is quite well-known in the area. The Emperor wouldn't do anything to the Zheng family without a legitimate reason."

Zheng Yue advised, "After all, you're a goddaughter. If there really were any problems, your parents would pretend to be friends with you and claim they'd already severed ties with you. No matter what happens, you won't be implicated. Don't worry about that."

Zheng Yue spoke this time because she wanted Wen Qingzhi to dispel her worries and plan her own affairs in peace.

How could Wen Qingzhi not know this?

After thinking it over, she looked at the people in the Marquis' Mansion and lowered her head for the first time.

She felt like the burden on her shoulders was a thousand pounds, weighing her down, making her unable to straighten her back. She had clearly been dealing with the cause of her parents and brother's death, so how had it come to this?

"Azhi, there is no time to lose!"

Zheng Yue said earnestly, "The palace will know about your return sooner or later. If someone with ulterior motives finds out and spreads the news of your secret return to the capital, then you won't be able to leave even if you want to!"
