Chapter 58

"Fourth Highness?"

Nangong Ningzhi stopped the carriage and exclaimed.

In front is indeed the fourth prince of the Jiangxian Empire——Yue Zangying!

"Ningzhi?" Dongfang Yu pushed aside the curtain of the carriage, and whispered in doubt, Nangong Ningzhi turned to him before asking, "Is there something wrong?"

"The Fourth Highness is in front," Nangong Ningzhi said, "Just stand there."

Dongfang Yu poked his head out a little more, and looked in the direction Nangong Ningzhi pointed: "Indeed, but what is next to him?... a sheep cart? It seems to be... it looks like it? There is also a—— -people?"

The distance between the two sides is a bit far, and only the outline can be seen.

Yueying still stood like that, motionless, with her back to Sheng Fengxue.

"Let's go and have a look," Nangong Ningzhi said, "You wait here for a while, I'll go over and park the carriage first."

"Okay." Dongfang Yu nodded.

After Nangong Ningzhi meticulously helped her out of the carriage, Dongfang Yu added, "You need to come back soon."

"Understood!" Nangong Ningzhi waved her hand, always impatient with Dongfang Yu.

"...It seems to be a woman," Dongfang Yu thought, tapped his forehead a few times with his index finger, and frowned, "It seems that the relationship is unusual."

Nangong Ningzhi quickly folded back.

Dongfang Yu supported his knees, his legs were trembling, and when he saw Nangong Ningzhi, he began to ramble again: "I'm so tired, I'm so tired... My legs are so soft, Ningzhi, I'm so tired!... What are you doing, Are you only coming back now?"

With a weak voice, pale complexion, and a frail appearance, it seemed like he was about to die at any moment.

Like a candle in the wind.

Nangong Ningzhi was dressed in goose green clothes, her hair fluttered in the wind with her hurried steps, and her clothes fluttered like a fairy descending to earth.

"You just fall to the ground." Nangong Ningzhi supported Dongfang Yu when he was about to collapse on the ground, and still treated him badly. "In that case, you don't have to be so tired."

"If it wasn't for the dirt on the floor, I would have been lying down," Dongfang Yu gasped and babbled, "You really think I don't want to lie down."

"Didn't I tell you to take a sedan chair?" Nangong Ningzhi frowned, "If you listen to me, there won't be so many troubles."

"It's... such a long way," Dongfang Yu straightened up slowly, "How can I have the heart to let you go such a long way!"

Nangong Ningzhi loosened her brows and glanced at him: "Ningzhi is just a palace man."

"You're different from them," Dongfang Yu said eagerly, and it didn't go well in a moment of impatience, "They are just palace servants, and you are the palace servant of His Royal Highness the princess."

"Isn't it just two more words?" Nangong Ningzhi pursed her lips and smiled, "The meaning is still the same."

"Anyway, no matter what other people think, it's different with me... at least it's different with me!" Seeing Nangong Ningzhi smile, Dongfang Yu was in a good mood, "Others secretly look down on me, but you..."

"Secretly, I also look down on you," Nangong Ningzhi said, "I am the same as them!"

"But, but...you didn't leave me!" Dongfang Yu tried to argue, his pale face flushed instantly.

"That's because you're smart enough." Nangong Ningzhi looked up at the clouds in the sky, and then fixed her eyes on Dongfang Yu's cheek. "You are more self-aware than them."

"Hey," Dongfang Yu smiled, "That's because I don't like fighting for power."

"It seems that even if we stand here until sunset, His Royal Highness will not be able to find us." Nangong Ningzhi sighed, not wanting to continue the topic just now.

"Standing there is really disrespectful!" Dongfang Yu said as he leaned against Nangong Ningzhi.

If it weren't for knowing that Dongfang Yu was ill, Nangong Ningzhi would have kicked him if it were someone else!
"Now he is no longer the fourth prince of Jiangxian Empire." Nangong Ningzhi said.

"The Fourth Highness has really changed a lot compared to before," Dongfang Yu said, "It's like two people."

"People change," Nangong Ningzhi said, "The Fourth Highness will also become more and more mature."

"Although it's a good thing, I always think he's a little too mature."

Dongfang Yu glanced at Nangong Ningzhi, and seeing that she didn't refute him, he continued: "Suddenly he became enlightened. He never participated in court disputes before."

"Didn't that matter fail, so he didn't become so smooth," Nangong Ningzhi said, "This is still good, and he is more humane than other princes."

Dongfang Yu nodded and pointed to Yueying. Nangong Ningzhi understood and helped him go there.

Yueying was not surprised to see them.

This is their agreed place.

Dongfang Yu looked at Sheng Fengxue sleeping soundly on the goat cart, Nangong Ningzhi knew who she was just by taking a glance, Dongfang Yu thought about it, turned to look at Nangong Ningzhi with doubts, Nangong Ningzhi nodded silently.

Nangong Ningzhi has the ability to see people with a photographic memory.

As long as she has met people once, she will remember them.

She doesn't like reading books, she likes watching people.

"What?" Yueying turned her face sideways and saw Dongfang Yu and Nangong Ningzhi flirting, "Do you know her?"

Nangong Ningzhi nodded, and Dongfang Yu followed suit.

"When?" Yueying asked curiously.

"It's not long since I left Nangong's pawn shop." Nangong Ningzhi said.

"We even gave her a pony at that time," Dongfang Yu said, "Our carriage stained her clothes."

Yueying thought about it, recalled the first time he met Sheng Fengxue, and knew it instantly.

At that time, Sheng Fengxue was indeed riding a pony.

"Isn't she cold like this?" Nangong Ningzhi asked, "The sun is not too bright, so let her sleep outside like this?"

"It's not easy for me to do it," Yueying said, "I'm afraid it will wake her up."

"If other people start directly, Si... You are so honest, young master." Nangong Ningzhi said with a smile.

"My sister educated me," Yueying sighed, "I don't have to listen to anyone, but I must listen to my sister!"

"She's fine, you don't have to worry," Nangong Ningzhi knew the worry in his sigh, "We just went to see it, and there is nothing missing except freedom."

Yueying nodded silently, without further questioning.

In any case, he must draw a clear line with Huang Jie now, and not implicate her because of his own affairs.

"By the way, how is Princess Ruyi doing recently?" Nangong Ningzhi asked suddenly.

"It's the same as before. Some time ago, because I was bored, I went to burn down other people's houses." Yue Ying said with a frown.

He doesn't like Princess Ruyi.

Because Nangong Ningzhi said that Princess Ruyi was her friend, he paid attention to her.

"That's good," Nangong Ningzhi nodded, the burden on her shoulders was lightened, "As long as she doesn't have any accidents."

"She is a child, why do you care?" Yueying asked, "She is not an obedient child."

"She helped...uh," Nangong Ningzhi thought for a while, "helped me a lot, and I am very grateful to her."

"Forget it," Yue Ying didn't want to worry about it anymore, "This is a matter between you two."

"...Yes." Nangong Ningzhi nodded silently without making any excuses.

"Should we take her to the inn?" Dongfang Yu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "It's getting cold, don't get sick."

"Let me come," Nangong Ningzhi said, "I used to carry your sister back to the room, my lord."

"Ningzhi is so powerful," Dongfang Yu smiled, "I'm almost able to hug me."

"When will you guys get married?" Yueying said with a smile, "Ningzhi won't be able to get married if this continues."

"I have no objection." Dongfang Yu smiled brilliantly.

"I have an opinion," Nangong Ningzhi said, "I'm afraid of becoming a widow."

"How could it be?!" Dongfang Yu said in surprise, "The imperial doctor said that I can live to be at least 80 years old!"

"Then go ahead, haha." Yueying smiled happily.

"Well... I will work hard!" Dongfang Yu clenched his fists and vowed.
