Chapter 139 I love this chapter
Huangfu Yuesheng and Chu Ling walked out of the gate of Kunxu City together.
Lu Rongqi saw with his own eyes the Second Princess and General Chu Ling riding away on horseback, talking and laughing.
It turns out that Huangfu Yuesheng dared to act recklessly and drove Ma Shangfei crazy with the help of Chu Ling!
Those cartloads of food and fodder were not prepared overnight but were planned in advance.
Huangfu Yuesheng stood up just to deliver food and supplies to Chu Ling!
Her purpose in currying favor with Chu Ling is to gain her support, and then the Queen will summon them back to the palace!
Chu Ling looks careless, but he is actually a smart man with a meticulous mind. If he returns to the capital, the Xiyan Kingdom will continue to prosper for a hundred years without declining!
Lu Rongqi touched the soft sword at his waist.
Seven men stood behind him, lowering their brows and heads, saying, "Master, let's go and deal with the two of them."
"When they are halfway there, send some men to burn their food supplies."
At this moment, Lu Rongqi no longer had the smile she had in front of outsiders. There was no expression on her face, and her dark eyes were so deep that one could not see what was inside. Thick ink was rolling in her eyes, as if some storm was brewing!
"I obey my orders!"
The people behind Lu Rongqi received the order and set off immediately.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Ma Shangfei's servants couldn't stand the loneliness any more.
In a room filled with thick incense, there were several men sitting on couches and beds, wearing revealing clothes that only covered their private parts.
"The Second Prince is out, why don't we go out and have some fun."
"It's good to go out. I haven't had a happy day since City Lord Ma went crazy. I used to wear this dress and stroll around the mansion, but the people under the Second Prince have nothing to do all day and stare at me and control me. If I wear something a little revealing, they will drive me back and won't let me leave the yard! It's so annoying!"
"I was thinking about seducing the Second Princess, but who knew it would be hard to even get close to her, with a bunch of guards guarding her yard!"
"I'm furious!"
"After two years, our appearance will become old and ugly. Who will support us?"
"The Second Prince doesn't even look at a man as beautiful as me. Sigh... I really want to be her man... When she returns to the capital in the future, she will take me with her because of my kindness..."
"Hey!"
These men became sad and depressed. "Men's lives are cheap, but mine is even cheaper. I grew up in such a promiscuous place. I finally got close to City Lord Ma, but who knew happiness would be so short-lived..."
"You idiots are still thinking about relying on women. I have already packed the money. Now the Second Prince is not in the City Lord's Mansion, and there are not many guards. Even if I run away, no one will notice."
Several people's eyes lit up and they sat up straight immediately.
Ma Shangfei was tied to the bed and couldn't move.
The maid guarding outside the door saw so many men coming, and they were all City Lord Ma’s male favorites.
"Let's take a look at the city lord."
The maid's eyes fell on the food boxes in their hands.
These men are usually incompetent and never look at others in the eye, but they care about the city lord very much.
The maid opened the door and said, "You can only go in for a quarter of an hour. You must come out when the time is up. The Second Prince said that if someone visits the city lord for too long, we will go in and drag them out, and then break their legs."
The handsomely dressed men suddenly felt weak in the knees: "..."
This Second Prince is so vicious.
"Okay, we got it. You stay away and keep watch. We have a lot to say to the city lord. You are not allowed to eavesdrop."
The maid lowered her eyebrows and spoke in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "The Second Prince asked me to guard outside the door."
"Alright alright!"
The six men turned and went inside.
They saw the woman lying quietly on the bed, the quilt had not fallen down, but her eyes were wide open and her mouth was opening and closing, but they could not hear what she was saying.
However, they didn't really come to see her.
The six men looked at each other and nodded. The next step was to rummage through the jewelry box on the dressing table and take away all the gold bracelets and hairpins inside.
Ma Shangfei was lying on the bed just fine, but someone went over to look at her pillow and discovered the secret under her quilt.
"The city lord was tied up and couldn't move..."
"Shh! Keep your voice down!"
They put the quilt back on.
These people took away all the things that were previously in the room.
The maid guarding outside the door saw that their walking posture was a little strange after they came out, and it seemed that they were carrying something weighing more than ten kilograms on their backs.
At this time, the maid had not noticed anything wrong.
……
Huangfu Yuesheng and Chu Ling walked side by side.
"You said you were coming to Beimo, but you didn't even ask anyone to send me a letter. As soon as you open your mouth, I will ask someone to bring you out immediately!" Chu Ling's eyes were fixed on Huangfu Yuesheng's face.
Huangfu Yuesheng, who had used a stand-in for two years: "..."
Chu Ling sneered: "It's too ugly to have a tense face, why don't you smile!"
Huangfu Yuesheng turned his head away and looked at the yellow sand around him.
"Don't be fooled by the sand here. There's green grass over there!"
Huangfu Yuesheng said calmly: "The environment here is miserable, and there are many fierce bandits..."
"What nonsense are you talking about! As long as I am here, there will be no bandits here! As long as there is a villain who dares to harm the people, I can catch her no matter how powerful she is!" There was a fierce flash in Chu Ling's eyes.
Huangfu Yuesheng's eyes were looking straight ahead.
"I really can't stand your cold and aloof look." Chu Ling muttered, "I held you in my arms when you were a child. Now that you've grown up to be like this, I wonder if the Crown Princess has become even more conservative."
Huangfu Yuesheng said calmly, "My sister is not old-fashioned, she is calm."
"The word calm is well used, hahaha! People who have read books are different, they really know how to talk."
Huangfu Yuesheng: "..."
It was hard to tell whether it was a joke or sarcasm.
The woman had a bold smile on her face, and her dark eyes were firm and fiery.
Huangfu Yuesheng withdrew his gaze.
Walked for half a day.
The sun is about to set.
Chu Ling smiled and said, "I'm afraid we won't be able to reach the tent camp tonight. We'll have to sleep outside all night. Are you afraid?"
"What is there to be afraid of?" Huangfu Yuesheng picked up a bottle of water, opened the lid, raised his head and drank a few sips to moisten his throat. He continued, "With an invincible general like you by my side, I should be afraid of others."
The smile on Chu Ling's lips deepened, "I like to hear what you said."
It quickly became dark.
Huangfu Yuesheng sat next to a cart of food and fodder, and Chu Ling also came over.
"Huangfu Yuesheng, I heard that you were driven out of the capital for some...reasons."
"There was a half-baked imperial tutor who said I was a disaster star. The Queen Mother believed the tutor's slander and drove me out."
"I never believe in ghosts and gods! What about the fate of being a disaster star? That's all fake. Natural disasters and man-made disasters are very normal. It happened to be a spring drought. My mother said that there was no rain for half a year before..." Chu Ling felt something was wrong as he spoke. He frowned and spoke out his guess, "Aren't you the Queen's child..."
