Chapter 21
"I'm full, I'm full."

After drinking the last sip of wine in the glass, Yueying sighed contentedly.

Sheng Fengxue, who was eating at the same table with him, had put down the bowls and chopsticks long ago, watching him with full vigilance.

"Huh?" Yueying put down her cup and looked up.

Just now when they ate together, they got along well, but seeing the change in Sheng Fengxue's expression now, he guessed that this matter is not over yet.

So he leaned forward, narrowed his peach eyes, tilted his head slightly and thought for a while, and then said: "After I pay for the meal, I will talk to you, Miss Sheng."

His appearance is really flattering, coupled with the chicness of not wearing a coat, it made Sheng Fengxue not so angry.

Speaking of which, this war really came out of nowhere, now Sheng Fengxue can no longer feel Yueying's anger, and feels that the matter should be resolved soon.

In this way, she can continue on her way.

He wanted to pay the money himself, but because he knew he was short of cash, Sheng Fengxue didn't speak to him, but just silently watched him get up, and said with a faint smile, "Then I'll just wait here."

After eating and drinking enough, she no longer had as much anger as before, and the dissatisfaction in Sheng Fengxue's heart disappeared like this.

On the contrary, she was very grateful for Yueying's kind meal, so whether consciously or not, she had remembered his appearance, thinking that if she met again in the future, she would definitely invite him back.

When the two were alone, Yue Ying was no longer as flamboyant as before, completely different from when they met just now.

Xiao Er joyfully led Yueying to the counter, and after handing Yueying over to the shopkeeper, he went to the backyard as if he had relieved the burden from his heart.

The shopkeeper looked around, but Sheng Fengxue didn't come out with her, she felt bad, and when she was about to ask something, Yueying lowered her head and took out two ingots of silver from her sleeve and put them on the counter.

What he said next dispelled the shopkeeper's doubts and worries.

"20 taels should be enough. The rest will be stored with you first. When Miss Sheng comes here again, the remaining silver will be considered as paying for her meal."

"Why?" The store owner shook his head wearing a tall hat, curious in his heart, he had never encountered such a thing.

The rest of the money is enough for Sheng Fengxue and him to stay here for half a month, which is really an exaggeration.

"I will not reject the most sincere voice of the body." Yueying still smiled lightly.

He who speaks in a serious manner makes people feel bored, but he who smiles and speaks polite words is actually very pleasing.

Seeing that the shopkeeper was puzzled, he pointed to his ear again, and said in the serious tone just now: "Didn't I say it before, my hearing has always been very good."

The shopkeeper was still confused, but it was impossible to refuse the real money, so he hurriedly collected the money with a better attitude than before.

"Okay, I've made a note of it, little one."

"That's work."

Yue Ying was very polite, she turned around and went outside after speaking, she smiled happily while walking and said: "Thank you Miss Sheng for me, I am very happy this time, haha."

Besides, Sheng Fengxue had been honestly waiting for Yueying to come back before continuing her theory, but after all the waiting and waiting, there was no sign of him, so she went downstairs to ask what happened.

The shopkeeper could only tell her exactly what happened just now.

When Sheng Fengxue heard Yueying's words "I will not reject the most sincere voice of my body", she was puzzled at first, but she understood after thinking about it.

Yueying heard Sheng Fengxue's stomach growling with hunger.

Saying goodbye to the store, Sheng Fengxue was extremely grateful to Yueying, and when she rode Shanyou to catch up with all her strength, he was already gone.

"...Didn't he say he was going to Beijing? Maybe we can meet again if we are destined."

Yueying's actions not only changed Sheng Fengxue's bad impression of him, but also made her fall in love with her.

After all, the last thing Sheng Fengxue wants to owe is favors!

But along the way, she felt that she owed more and more, and they were all strangers.

"Speaking of which, these strangers treat me much better than the people in the Du Mansion." Sheng Fengxue sighed and headed towards the capital.

Touching Shanyou's head, she thought of the white robe behind her again, and couldn't help but said to herself: "It would be great if I could also return the clothes."

Shanyou could only yell in a low voice as agreement.

There was only one road leading to the capital, Sheng Fengxue got off his horse and asked about it, and indeed a young man on a white horse passed by here.

If it is said that they can't see the appearance of the person clearly, then the white horse and the others can still see clearly.

After confirming several times, Sheng Fengxue felt at ease.

While passing by along the way, she ran into some women who were arrested in Beijing and knew some kung fu. She could only watch them sitting in a prison car and being taken away by officers and soldiers from a distance.

Those who were taken away were mostly women in their teens and twenties who were in their prime.

It is strictly forbidden for women in the Ring of Japan to practice martial arts. If they are found, they will be arrested or killed by the government.

Sheng Fengxue sighed endlessly.

"Because of such a reason, it is really strange for the Ring of Sun Kingdom to be killed."

His Majesty the Emperor of the Huanri Kingdom is called Huanri Mingxi, a person Sheng Fengxue is familiar with but has never met.

Sheng Fengxue had inquired about it when he was in Du Mansion.

She never thought that one day she would meet His Majesty the Emperor.

By the time Sheng Fengxue searched for things, hurried along while doing work, and worked very hard to reach the capital, a long time had passed.

Sheng Fengxue felt a bit cold, but the women in the capital were still wearing crisp clothes.

It was so beautiful that even Sheng Fengxue felt dazzled.

Sure enough, as Qili and Lingluo said, after arriving in the capital, it's not so cold anymore.

Sheng Fengxue delivered a letter to a person named He Yuan first when she arrived in the capital, and when she followed the address on the envelope all the way to the place where He Yuan lived, it was already nightfall.

He Yuan was Qili who stayed in the capital and made arrangements for Sheng Fengxue. When Sheng Fengxue was determined to leave the Du Mansion, Qili made arrangements for this matter.

"Are you sure this is the letter you want to hand over to me?"

Facing this emaciated young man with a sallow and thin face who looked at him maliciously, Sheng Fengxue could only nod helplessly.

She thought that this person was the He Yuan she was looking for.

In fact, this person's name is Yan Ming, and he has something to do with Yan Yuxin. He Yuan went out to do some errands, and he thought that Sheng Fengxue would take at least a few days to reach the capital, so he asked Yan Ming to wait here.

Unlike Dongfang Yu who was sickly and pale on Shengfengxue Road, he was pale and thin, as if he had been malnourished.

Completely depressed.

Seeing the other party's searching eyes, Sheng Fengxue felt uncomfortable in her heart, as if she was an item for sale, being watched with evil intentions.

"I see!"

Yan Ming's skinny face showed a slight smile, Sheng Fengxue looked at it in horror, moved his toes and wanted to turn around and run away.

"Since everything has been arranged clearly, please, Miss Sheng, you can stay here for now." Yan Ming squinted his eyes and said, in an unprecedentedly good mood.

It has already been stated in the letter that He Yuan should take good care of Sheng Fengxue and not be negligent.

"...No, no need!" Sheng Fengxue took a step back, uneasily refusing.

There was a cold wind blowing by her ears, she shivered for a while, and suddenly felt a chill in her heart.

The other party's smile made her feel inexplicably uneasy in her heart, and she just wanted to run away from here.

Seeing this, the smile on Yan Ming's face deepened, and he was a little more pleasant than before. He glanced behind Sheng Fengxue, and then kindly reminded him.

"Miss Sheng, you see it's almost late at night. It's not safe even in the capital at night, so I advise you to stay here first. Even if there is something urgent, you have to wait until dawn."

Hearing what he said, Sheng Fengxue took a sneak peek at the surroundings, except for the sound of the clock and the chirping of night insects, there was really no one else.

There are other mansions around here, Sheng Fengxue nodded silently when she saw this place and said very politely: "Then I will trouble you."

"It's all right, since you have brought Miss Qili's letter, you should treat her well."

The smile on Yan Ming's face was about to bloom, and Sheng Fengxue had seen the gloomy smile that turned away many times.

This time it was covered by darkness.

After entering the mansion and finishing grooming, Sheng Fengxue finally couldn't bear the fatigue and fell into a deep sleep, not even aware of being moved away...
