Chapter 562: Chapter 561 Like a Pair of Good Friends
The Empress’s convoy had already entered Beiming Territory, but it seems they have recently met with some delays.
According to the messages sent back, it will probably take another four or five days to arrive.
"Is she really in the convoy?" Feng Yexuan didn’t know what he was thinking.
Leng Ji couldn’t understand either, "Prince, if the Empress isn’t in the convoy, then what would be the point?"
Only within her own army would she be safe.
"They... saw her with their own eyes?"
"Of course, everyone saw her with their own eyes. Moreover, Fu Ning has been constantly by the Empress’s side."
Leng Ji instinctively glanced towards the guestroom’s doorway.
But perhaps even he didn’t know what he was thinking.
Neither did the Prince. What was the Prince thinking?
"Prince, do you plan to turn back and personally welcome Her Majesty?"
The paths they took were somewhat different, but the road ahead was the same.
If the Prince set off now and took the official road from Qingxi Town to Longteng Country, it would take at most two days to meet up with the Empress’s convoy.
No, with the Prince’s speed, a day and a night would suffice.
Leng Ji had even mentally prepared himself for the possibility that the Prince might depart right now.
But unexpectedly, Feng Yexuan fell silent.
"Prince?" Leng Ji couldn’t figure out what he was thinking.
Leng Ji had actually already ordered his luggage to be packed.
With such a short distance between them, just one day and a night’s journey, the Prince could see Miss Chu.
Could it be that the Prince, despite being desperate to see Chu Qianli, wasn’t planning to hurry?
At this time, on the other side of the guestroom, Feng Jinrui and Xiaoyao carrying a bundle were coming out together.
Who knows what Fourteenth Prince had said, but Xiaoyao seemed quite happy now.
Not as upset as before.
However, upon lifting her head and seeing Feng Yexuan standing in the courtyard, the smile at the corners of Xiaoyao’s lips faded quite a bit.
She pursed her lips and walked over to Feng Yexuan with her bundle in hand.
One could see that she was somewhat reluctant, but she seemed to have been persuaded by Fourteenth Prince.
"Prince, seeing as I’ve also made a contribution to the people of Qingxi Town, please let me follow the convoy back to the Imperial City," she said.
After a pause, a glint of light appeared in her eyes, "Don’t worry, Prince, once we reach the Imperial City, I will leave immediately and won’t delay the army!"
Traveling alone, she thought it wouldn’t be a problem, but her master was worried.
Her master had instructed her to follow Prince Yexuan’s army, and she had to obey her master’s words.
Feng Yexuan stared at her, not speaking, his expression not looking very good, but without the intent of getting angry.
After all, this distinguished Prince was capricious and difficult to get along with, something Xiaoyao was mentally prepared for.
Feng Jinrui whispered, "What the Fourth Prince means is, he does not object."
Xiaoyao immediately beamed with joy, "Thank you, Prince."
"Jinrui, let’s go," Feng Yexuan said.
"Loyal Brother, I’ll take Xiaoyao back to the camp first," replied Feng Jinrui.
Carrying her bundle, he walked with her.
They had the look of good pals; they were only short of holding hands!
Even Leng Ji found it rather peculiar, "When did Fourteenth Prince become so willing to be close to a young lady?"
Although, this young lady looked like a little girl who hadn’t grown up yet.
But Fourteenth Prince was always quite averse to being close to women!
The Prince nearby gave no response.
Leng Ji couldn’t help but take a covert glance at him.
But all he saw was him gazing in the direction in which Feng Jinrui and Xiaoyao had left, his eyes profound, unknowable in thought.
For a good while, he just stood there in that posture, saying nothing.
Leng Ji felt it necessary to remind him, "Prince, so, are we going..."
"Go back, reorganize the troops, and depart at dawn tomorrow," Feng Yexuan said as he started walking.
He’d only taken a few steps when he suddenly, intensely remembered something.
Hadn’t they just been discussing whether to turn back to greet Lili?
