Chapter 145 Reaching the Southern Qi Kingdom

Chapter 140 Six

After a table of dishes was served, Feng Xi was really frightened by Jiang Jue's financial resources. It seemed that the rich people in this southern land were indeed very powerful. The dishes on this table looked very luxurious, compared with the dishes of the court Not bad, maybe even better.

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang." Looking at the dishes on the table, Yu Mingqian understood that Jiang Jue was looking to please his sister on the one hand, and entertain himself on the other.No matter what the purpose is, he is very grateful.

Jiang Jue smiled indifferently, "Don't worry, Mr. Fang, these are nothing to me."

Yu Mingqian also smiled back. Although Jiang Jue's tone was a bit arrogant, it was also reasonable.

"Everyone move your chopsticks." Jiang Jue, as the host, naturally spoke first.

Yu Mingqian then started to move his chopsticks, Yu Zimu and Yu Xiaole followed Yu Mingqian and started to do it, Fengxi saw that they were all moving their chopsticks before starting to eat.

"Mr. Fang, I don't know where you are going?" Jiang Jue asked a question unintentionally.

Yu Mingqian paused while holding the chopsticks, "We are going to the Southern Qi Kingdom."

Jiang Jue was taken aback. Few people would go to Nanqi Kingdom, because Nanqi Kingdom and Xilong Kingdom have been feuding for many years, and the people of Nanqi Kingdom are good at fighting, very aggressive, so few people from Xilong Kingdom are willing to go Even businessmen from the Southern Qi Kingdom seldom go there, that's why he was so surprised.

"You are going to Nanqi? Why are you going there?" Jiang Jue continued to ask.

Seeing that Jiang Jue asked this question, Feng Xi didn't want to answer, but because of Jiang Jue's enthusiasm, she still spoke up, "Young Master Jiang, we went to Nan Qi to save a very important person."

After listening to Feng Xi's explanation, Jiang Jue also understood what Feng Xi meant. She didn't want people to know who they were trying to save.It seems that this matter is very important and secretive to them.

"So that's the case." After Jiang Jue said this sentence, he didn't say anything else.

Feng Xi felt relieved, but fortunately Jiang Jue didn't continue to question her.

Several people ate this meal very happily, because of the deliciousness of the meal, but also because of the place where they ate and who they ate with.

"Brother, are you going back to the inn now?" Walking out of the inn, Yu Zimu asked Yu Mingqian.

Yu Mingqian nodded, because he walked too fast, so he never had a chance to rest, let's take a good rest today and take advantage of this opportunity.

Yu Zimu was a little disappointed. She originally wanted to go shopping with her brother's family, which was considered a reunion. Now that her brother and the others needed to rest, she was too embarrassed to bother her.

Jiang Jue saw her loss, and hurriedly followed her, "Zi Mu, do you want to go shopping, I will accompany you!"

Just as Yu Zimu was about to stop him, Yu Mingqian took the conversation away.

"Mu'er, let Mr. Jiang accompany you, so I can rest assured."

Yu Zimu couldn't bear to make her brother angry, so she nodded obediently, and it was because of Jiang Jue's hospitality to her brother just now that she was willing to go shopping with Jiang Jue.

"Brother, you guys have a good rest at the inn, when will you leave tomorrow morning?" Yu Zimu continued to ask.

"Leave at Chenshi tomorrow morning." Yu Mingqian said with a smile.

Yu Zimu nodded, turned and left silently, and Jiang Jue followed behind her.

Seeing Jiang Jue talking to Yu Zimu, Yu Mingqian couldn't help laughing, this Jiang Jue might be Yu Zimu's beloved.

"Are you really worried about that Jiang Jue?" Feng Xi whispered in his ear at this moment.

Yu Mingqian turned his head to look at Feng Xi, "Although he is a noble son of a rich family, he has no airs. I think he is very suitable for Mu'er."

Feng Xi didn't say anything anymore, after all, her elder brother had already acquiesced, so why should she continue talking.

Turning around and entering the inn, she brought Yu Xiaole into the room with the two of them.

Because Yu Xiaole was still young, Feng Xi resolutely kept Yu Xiaole by her side, and decided to let Yu Xiaole share a room with her, which made Yu Mingqian very angry.

On the other hand, Yu Xiaole was very proud. Seeing his father being so angry that he could only hold back, he was not to mention how happy he was.Fortunately, mother is on his side, and father can't make any tricks.

There was no dream all night, this night Feng Xi hugged five-year-old Yu Xiaole and slept peacefully.

Yu Xiaole has been refusing to sleep, Feng Xi told him a few stories, Yu Xiaole slowly fell asleep, Feng Xi also fell asleep while talking.

Yu Mingqian looked at the two people on the bed, one big and one small, and couldn't help but smiled softly. The mother and son really looked alike.

Fengxi sleeps curled up, even Yu Xiaole in her arms is curled up, it makes people feel very distressed.

After watching for a long time, Yu Mingqian finally stopped looking, stood up, closed the door gently, and went to sleep in his room next door.

The second day was sunny and the weather was surprisingly good.Yu Mingqian woke up early in the morning and felt that today was a good day to hurry, so he walked out of the room and woke up Fengxi and Yu Xiaole.

After the three of them finished their breakfast, Yu Zimu came in from outside the inn at exactly the same time, and Jiang Jue followed behind him.

"Brother, these are some necessities I bought for you yesterday. If you are inconvenient on the road, just take these with you." Yu Zimu held a big bag of things in his hand, his eyes were full of reluctance.

Yu Mingqian took the things in her hand and patted her head, "Thank you Mu'er, brother will be back soon, if you don't want to stay here, go home."

Yu Zimu nodded, she understood that her brother wanted her to go back to see her mother, and she had exactly the same intention.

"Young Master Jiang, please take care of our Mu'er." Yu Mingqian said to Jiang Jue with a smile.

Jiang Jue nodded, "Naturally, if Mr. Fang doesn't say anything, I will do my best to take care of Zi Mu."

The conversation between Yu Mingqian and Jiang Jue made Zi Mu blush, why now it feels like Jiang Jue is her husband, and her brother is confessing to her brother-in-law.

On the contrary, the two big men didn't care about Yu Zimu's feelings at all, they talked to themselves there.

"Sister Fengxi, you have to take good care of my brother, he is very careless." Seeing that the two of them ignored him, Yu Zimu turned his gaze to Fengxi.

Feng Xi's head is full of black lines, what does your brother have to do with me, but after thinking about it, Fang Wuyue also took care of her a lot, even if Yu Zimu didn't tell her, she would still take care of him.

So Feng Xi nodded awkwardly, "Understood, you have to take care of yourself too."

"Sister Zi Mu, you have to take care of yourself!" Yu Xiaole was also saying goodbye to her aunt, but because she wanted to hide her identity from Feng Xi, she had to say goodbye in a strange way.

Yu Zimu was very happy after hearing that, her own nephew still didn't forget her, so she immediately hugged Yu Xiaole.

"Xiao Le should also be well. I'll treat you to dinner again when I get back!" Yu Zimu and his nephew faced each other with their noses facing each other.

Xiao Le was naturally very happy when he heard that someone invited him to dinner, "It's a deal!"

"A word is settled!"

After leaving this city in the south, the itinerary became very fast.

After four or five days, they finally arrived at the border of the Southern Qi Kingdom.

The generals defending the city seem to be very strict with people from Xitaki country.Both Yu Mingqian and Feng Xi raised their vigilance, fortunately they took Yu Xiaole with them, so they could pretend to be a family relocated from Xilong Kingdom to Nanqi Kingdom.

"You stop!"

Just a little bit, they passed by, and suddenly the voice of a strong man stopped their footsteps.

Looking up, he saw a man in military uniform. Judging by his attire, he should be at least a small captain.

The strong man walked towards them, looking straight at Feng Xi, "This little lady looks really good!"

Feng Xi immediately looked over with a cold look, she was most disaccustomed to this kind of lecherous person, in such broad daylight, he dared to openly moles a decent woman, it's really outrageous.

Feng Xi was about to open her mouth to scold this strong man, but Yu Mingqian stood in front of her.

"This old man, the villain's wife is suffering from tuberculosis, so the villain has traveled thousands of miles from Xilong country to Nanqi country, just to let the villain's wife see his hometown, and please accommodate me " Yu Mingqian said as he secretly stuffed a silver coin into the strong man.

The strong man wanted to leave as soon as he heard that Feng Xi had tuberculosis. Now that he still has money to collect, he naturally wouldn't be in any trouble.

So he laughed loudly.

"It turned out to be home to visit relatives, so go in quickly, it's quite pitiful!"

When Feng Xi heard Yu Mingqian's words, she was a little surprised. She thought that a person like him must be more intolerable than she was for such a mess, but she didn't expect that Yu Mingqian would be so perfunctory to this person.

They are on the border of the Southern Qi State, if there is any dispute, they will be the ones who will suffer.

These defenders of the city are nothing more than trying to get a sum of money from the people who enter the city, and it is not difficult to deal with it. Yu Mingqian's method does not need to consume physical strength. Besides, they have plenty of money. Before leaving, Jiang Jue gave it to them. Not a lot.

Feng Xi secretly admired Yu Mingqian, quickly took Yu Xiaole's hand, lowered her head, coughed, and followed Yu Mingqian into the city.

They are restricted by people outside the city, but they don't have to worry so much inside the city.

After settling down, Feng Xi lay on the bed, wondering if that person would send him another message, since they had already arrived in Southern Qi Kingdom, she didn't know what that person would do next.

Flying Light General's Mansion, a scene of extravagance.

Cups of wine were intertwined, beauties paired with wine, Bai Ye was sitting on the highest seat, drinking a glass of wine, surrounded by a few enchanting women, walking around him non-stop, trying to attract his attention, but Bai Ye's His eyes kept looking forward, unshakable, just ignoring these enchanting beauties like that.

Fengxi, you should be here by now.

"Master, Li Fengxi has arrived, but she also brought a man and a little boy with her." A person suddenly appeared, kneeling in front of Bai Ye, and calmly reported.

Bai Ye slowly put down the hand holding on to the wine glass, put the quilt on the table, and looked at the person kneeling on the ground.

"But I've found out, what are the identities of that man and that little boy?" The voice was cold, without a trace of emotion, and no one except Li Fengxi would cause him to have emotional fluctuations.

"That man is Yu Mingqian, the emperor of Xitaki Kingdom, and the child beside him is Yu Xiaole, the prince of Xitaki Kingdom." The person who came to report obviously had been trained by Bai Ye long ago, so he put everything in order early in the morning. He only came to report after asking all the questions clearly, which is considered to have lived up to Bai Ye's training.

"Yu Mingqian and his son are here. He is really bold. Are you really not afraid that I will kill him?" Next, you must know that your master is very cold-blooded, and if you say a wrong sentence, you may have your tongue cut out.

Bai Ye waved his hand, signaling the women around him to leave.

Although those women were unwilling, they left one after another because they were afraid of Bai Ye.

Bai Ye stood up, dragging the robe behind her, "Yu Mingqian, just wait for me, Fengxi will definitely be mine, in this life, I won't let you succeed!"

His subordinates felt a gloomy aura coming from him. This was a sign of his master's displeasure. He should stay away.

In the north, the weather is getting colder and colder. Walking on the road, the sky is full of gravel. This is the border of Beifeng Country. The environment here is very harsh, so some people who have committed crimes are often sent here. Die here.

Yi Cheng was riding a horse with a small burden on his back. Looking at such a desolate scene, he felt uncomfortable. When he left this land more than five years ago, it was not so desolate here. Several families insisted on staying here, but after more than five years, he finally came back, but there was no one there, and he had to continue walking for another day to reach the gate of the small border town.

This journey was difficult, and he kept asking himself in his heart, if he went back, would his father admit him.It is said that Yin Sheng, the prince of Beifeng Kingdom, returned safely back then, which meant that someone replaced him, but now his face is somewhat unrecognizable, and the scar on his face forced him to wear a mask all year round. I was really a little afraid that my father would really deny him. He was indeed too willful back then, thinking that everything was easy, but in fact, his uncle would not easily let go of any opportunity to usurp the throne.

This time, he finally came back.

This time, he won't let anyone take advantage of him!

After finally arriving at the city gate, Yi Cheng's clothes were a bit worn out by the gravel, but fortunately his clothes were still intact, and the guards at the city gate easily let him in.

After entering the city, he looked up at the sky here, although it was the same sky, but looking at it here, it felt different after all, it was the breath of his hometown, the clouds of his hometown.

"Shopkeeper, I need an upper room and bath water." Yi Cheng ordered the innkeeper, and then went upstairs by himself. In a few days, he will be able to reach the capital of Beifeng Country. Find a way to find the concubine mother, and then meet the emperor father.

The dew in the morning was heavy, and Southern Qi was a hot and humid place, so it was even more weird.

Fengxi can't adapt to the climate here, it's a bit unbearable.

The food here was also a bit unacceptable, but she still managed to eat it.

He Yu Xiaole was eating when suddenly a dart shot in from the window and stuck into the pillar on the opposite wall.

After all, Yu Xiaole was still young, she looked a little frightened, and immediately hid behind Feng Xi, looking at the dart.

Feng Xi knew that this was just a means used by the other party to convey information, so she probably didn't intend to hurt them, so she immediately stood up, took Yu Xiaole into her arms, took the dart off the pillar with all her strength, and pressed it under the dart. With a piece of paper.

Feng Xi asked Yu Xiaole to sit beside her, then put the dart on the table, opened the note, and began to read.

"Please go to the capital of the Southern Qi Kingdom in five days. I'll be waiting for you, Fengxi."

The style of writing this time was obviously different from last time, Feng Xi was a little confused, since that person wanted to see her, why didn't he come to her directly, why did he arrest his brother-in-law, wouldn't it be superfluous?

"Fengxi, I just heard that there was some movement on your side. What happened?" Yu Mingqian just came to the door, saw Fengxi holding a note in his hand, and understood what it was, it was 'that person'. The news came, even though he knew who it was, he couldn't say it because he couldn't let Feng Xi know his identity.

"Someone sent a note with a dart saying that we will arrive in the capital of the Southern Qi Kingdom in five days. Is there time?" Feng Xi was a little uncertain because she didn't know the Southern Qi Kingdom very well and didn't know the situation here How far is Kyoto? If it is too far to reach, it can only show that this person is making things difficult for them.

Yu Mingqian took the note from Feng Xi's hand, looked at it carefully, and felt a faint feeling of uneasiness in his heart. He suddenly regretted that he shouldn't have brought Feng Xi to the Southern Qi Kingdom. He always felt that 'that person' had for other purposes.

"Fang Wuyue?" Seeing that Yu Mingqian was in a daze, Feng Xi called out again.

Yu Mingqian came to his senses and handed the note to Feng Xi again, "The capital of the Southern Qi Kingdom is not far from here, and it can be reached within five days."

Not far away, Feng Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what the other party's purpose is, she will still go. The righteous brother is in the hands of that person. Even if she can't remember anything now, but according to what her father told According to her, she has a good relationship with her brother-in-law, and she also learned that it seems that brother-in-law went to the border of Nanqi to serve as a city guard general because she disappeared.

She felt very sorry. She didn't expect that the events of the year would make these people change like this. She was really guilty.

What Feng Xi didn't know was that those who cared about her were all guilty of her disappearance, and they always wanted her to come back.

"Then let's set off immediately and try to reach the capital within five days. I'm afraid that brother Yi will have an accident." Feng Xi put away the note and said to Yu Mingqian.

Yu Mingqian nodded, "But don't be in a hurry, it's better to take your time, after all, it will take four and a half days to travel."

Feng Xi responded without arousing suspicion at all, she didn't think it was strange that Yu Mingqian knew these things.

Yu Mingqian also murmured in his heart, fortunately Feng Xi's suspicions were not serious, otherwise he would really be afraid of revealing his secrets.
