Yao Ling and Yue Ming then entered the inn, and Yao Ling did not enter her room, but went to the mute girl's room. The father and daughter lived in a house in the cheapest corner of the inn, dark and gloomy. When I entered the door, I saw the girl wiping the rain from her father's face.

Turning her head, the girl saw Yaoling, immediately walked over from the bedside, moved a chair for Yaoling, stretched out her hand and made a gesture of please, and then quickly got a glass of water from the table next to her and handed it to Yaoling with both hands, with a grateful smile on her face, Yaoling took the water and put it lightly on the table, and then walked to the bedside, at this time, the man in the middle closed his eyes tightly, his face was red, and his breath was heavy. Yaoling sat down on the chair next to the bed, pulled up the man's right hand, and put three fingers like tender onions on his pulse. At this time, Yueming also walked in slowly, and the dark room suddenly felt a lot brighter, and he walked lightly to Yaoling and stood up, looking at the silhouette of Yaoling's pulse.

After a while, Yaoling came to the table and called the shopkeeper to ask for paper and pen, buried himself in writing, and after a while, handed the written paper to the girl and said softly: "Go get the medicine" and then she looked at Yueming next to her, Yueming took out ten taels of silver from her arms and handed it to the dumb girl. The mute girl looked at the two of them, her expression of joy and gratitude was overflowing, her eyes were already full of tears, and she wanted to kneel down to thank the two, but she was stopped by Yaoling, and after taking the money, she hurried out of the door to grab the medicine.

"Heh, Mr. Ghost's apprentice also needs to prescribe medicine. After the mute girl left, Yueming quipped. Yao Ling rolled his eyes and said, "You think that I will be full of all kinds of pills, and then when I see a sick person, I will take out one and give it to people to eat at any time, and I can bring the dead back to life." Yueming had a smile on her face when she heard this.

Looking at his expression, Yao Ling knew why Xiao Feng was so calm and introverted, and people would be mad by his anger. She looked at his eyes and said contemptuously: "I have a lot of pills on my body, but they are all miracle medicines that can make people die or live, this person is just depressed and overworked and infected with wind and cold, just take some ordinary medicine." Yueming looked at her, and her head was the way, but she was not speaking.

This is the man on the bed who shouted softly: "Jiaojiao"

Yaoling walked over and looked at him, the man opened his eyes in a daze, he looked at Yaoling in a blur, he looked at Yaoling for a while, his confused eyes looked at the sudden clarity, and then he looked at Yaoling's back with a dull gaze, and for a moment he raised his hands and shouted eagerly: "Yu'er, Yu'er, is it you?" Then there was a violent cough, and then the person passed out again.

Yaoling picked up the water cup next to her, picked up the small spoon inside, and fed the man a few small spoonfuls of water very carefully. Yueming on the side looked at Yaoling's appearance, and somehow remembered the little Yaoling who kissed the wind under the kapok tree. There was a kind of gentleness and warmth in his eyes.

"What are you doing in a daze?" Yao Ling, who was next to Leng Buding, brought her whole delicate face to his eyes, and a pair of black and bright beautiful eyes looked at his eyes with a little question. Yueming's face turned red suddenly, and he flicked his sleeves and walked out.

Looking at his back as he went out, Yaoling said to herself inexplicably, "What's wrong with that dead moon?"

As soon as I got up in the morning of the second day and finished washing, I heard someone knocking on the door, and when I opened the door, I saw the mute girl standing at the door, and when she entered the door, the dumb woman gestured with her hand to tell Yaoling that her father's illness had been cured, and that the person was awake, and that she had come to thank Yaoling. Yaoling smiled and shook her head, at this time the mute girl saw the jade hairpin on Yaoling's head, and people couldn't help but stay for a while, Yaoling thought that she must also like the jade hairpin, so she asked her, "Isn't this jade hairpin very beautiful?"

The mute girl nodded, a hint of doubt in her eyes.

Yaoling reached out and touched the jade hairpin on her head, and said softly, "This is what my mother left me." The dumb girl's body trembled slightly, but at this time, Yaoling was immersed in a kind of sadness, and she said softly: "But I have never seen what my mother looks like?"

Looking at the mute girl, she said to her, "Your father is sick, but he has you with him after all?" I don't know who is with my parents when they are sick. ”

A light cough came from outside the door, breaking Yaoling's contemplation, and she woke up from her trance to see Yueming standing in the doorway. The mute girl also seemed to wake up from a trance, saw Yueming saluting, and left in a panic.

Yueming came to Yaoling and looked at Yaoling with a calm face, and said softly for a moment: "It's time to go"

Yaoling was a little hesitant, Yueming knew that she was worried about the father and daughter, and said slowly: "I will arrange it, you don't have to worry" nodded, Yaoling packed up her things and the two went downstairs. At this time, Asaga's team was already waiting at the door, and when he got into the carriage, Yueming called a guard and gave him a hundred taels of silver tickets, and ordered him to be handed over to the mute girl in the room at the far end of the upper floor.

Then the team left the inn in a big way.

At this time, the mute girl was gesturing with the middle-aged man lying on the bed, when a guard suddenly came in. After entering the door, he looked at the two of them, and the middle-aged man looked at the guard with a miserable smile on his face: "I've been running for so many years, and I still haven't been able to hide." The mute girl stood on her father's body and looked at the guard and gestured to something. The cold guard didn't know what they were talking about, but took out a silver ticket from his bosom and handed it to the mute girl, saying, "This is my master for you," and then turned around and left. Before he could go far, he heard stumbling footsteps coming from behind, "Brother Bing, wait." The guard stood down and turned to look at the middle-aged man behind him, the middle-aged man was already sweating profusely, and stumbled to the guard and bent down to salute: "Brother Bing, can you tell which adult helped our father and daughter, and I will repay your master for his kindness in the future." The guard looked at him and said coldly: "My master is His Royal Highness Prince Yanlong Ming" After the guard finished speaking, he turned around and left, hearing this, the middle-aged man was stunned. The owner of the inn, the shopkeeper, was stunned. Looking at the guards who had left, he chased after them again, and the guards asked impatiently, "What else do you have to do?"

"By asking Brother Bing, is that woman also from the Yanlong Prince's Mansion?" the guard looked at him coldly again and said, "You asked a lot, she is from the Yanlong Ning County Palace," he turned around and soared away.

Two days later, they arrived at Mingcheng, the capital of Western Wu. Yueming was afraid that Yaoling would be lonely, so she disguised Yaoling as a man and asked her to pretend to be an official of the mission to follow him in and out of the palace of Western Wu.

Besides, Fengzhao traveled all the way day and night and entered Jiang Li's capital Jindu sixteen days later, and he was greeted by Jiang Li's crown prince Rong Jianghai, and Jiang Li's monarch did not receive him for the first time. Two days later, the crown prince held a banquet in the prince's mansion and invited Fengzhao and other Yanlong envoys.

And Feng Zhao was not in a hurry to see Jiang Li's monarch, he just hinted during the banquet that the prince did not come to Jiang Li this time mainly to congratulate him, and his words revealed the message that he wanted to break off diplomatic relations with Ji Guo, and sure enough, on the second day after the prince set up a banquet, Jiang Li Guojun summoned Feng Zhao alone.

Jiang Li's monarch Rong Yuan is a beautiful man forty miles away, if he doesn't wear that yellow brocade robe, he looks like a Confucian student. When he heard the prince say that the main purpose of the king of Yanlongning County to come to Jiangli was to discuss the alliance between the two countries and the joint severance of diplomatic relations with Jiguo, he knew that he could no longer hide from the envoy who did not see Yanlong.

Looking at this calm and elegant young man in front of him, Rong Yuan had an indescribable annoyance in his heart, he once wanted to marry his favorite daughter Seventh Princess to this young man, but he refused, which made him and his country very faceless, originally he didn't plan to see him this time, but he had to see him when it was about the future of the country.

After looking at it for a long time, Rong Yuan asked Feng Zhao coldly: "I heard that King Ningjun didn't come here this time just for the sake of congratulating?"

Feng Zhao took out the letter written by Chang Ruojin, the monarch of Yanlong Kingdom, to Jiang Li from his sleeve cage and handed it to Rong Yuan, Rong Yuan opened the letter and read it, his brows furrowed slightly and said: "Since the beginning of the war and chaos of the right country, the three kingdoms of Yanlong, Jiangli, Xiwu have belonged to the Ji Kingdom for a hundred years, and during this period, the Ji Kingdom has treated Jiang Li very well, and now there is no excuse to break off diplomatic relations with the Ji Kingdom, I am afraid that the people of the Ji Kingdom and Jiang Li will not be able to say it." ”

Hearing him say this, Feng Zhao thought for a while and looked at Rong Yuan's indifferent eyes and said: "The Three Kingdoms of Yanlongjiang, Lixi, and Wu were vassal states of Youli a hundred years ago, and Youli did not treat any of them badly, but the three kingdoms of Yanlongjiang, Lixi, and Wu finally turned their backs on Youli and attached to Ji, just because Youli could no longer bless these three countries. And now although the country of Ji seems to be strong, the country of Ji has gone through five generations of monarchs, the domestic financial resources are empty, and the people's lives have been difficult. The Great Dragon Dynasty in the north has gone through three generations of monarchs, and it is the time when the country is strong and the people are prosperous and the territory is expanded, and the ambition of the Great Dragon Dynasty to the Ji Kingdom and Yanlongjiang Lixi Wu is also known to everyone in the world. After a slight pause, he continued:

"In the face of such two powerful countries, the three small countries in the south have always preserved their national strength in the form of subordination, but may I ask Your Majesty if you have ever thought about whether these three countries can safely avoid the war once there is a war between the Great Dragon Dynasty and the Ji Kingdom?" He stood opposite Rong Yuan, wearing a purple wide-sleeved brocade robe, with long hair scattered, and a faint domineering look in his expression and words, which made Prince Jiang Li Rong Jianghai next to him can't help but have a look of envy.

Listening to Fengzhao's words, Rong Yuan couldn't help but ponder deeply.

"What is needed to survive in the cracks of great powers is keen judgment and foresight to be able to foresee the future. I'm afraid that His Majesty also understands in his heart that if there is a war between the Ji Kingdom and the Great Dragon Dynasty, who will be the final winner. After being silent for a while, Fengzhao said softly: "If you are attached to the Great Dragon Dynasty by then, won't you feel a little late?" After that, his dark eyes stared at Rong Yuan tightly, and he did not avoid it because he was Jiang Li's monarch.

After pondering for a long time, Rong Yuan said to Feng Zhao: "This matter is very important, and the Lone King must consult with the courtiers before he can make a decision. Please stay a few more days. At this point, there was no longer the cold detachment between his words.

Leaving Jiang Li's palace, Feng Zhao was dragged by Jiang Li's prince Rong Jianghai to his mansion to eat and drink. During the banquet, I heard the chief steward come to report: "Concubine Min and Her Royal Highness the Seventh Princess have come to the Prince's Mansion to play. Rong Jianghai was busy with Fengzhao to greet Concubine Min and the Seventh Princess.

Hearing the Seventh Princess, Feng Zhao couldn't help but sneer: It seems that after all, she can't avoid this side of the relationship.

Without a moment, a gorgeous sedan chair stopped at the door of Rong Jianghai's house, and two women came down from the sedan chair, a woman dressed in a red embroidered peacock peony palace dress and a young girl dressed in an apricot red brocade dress. "Rong Jianghai's biological mother is Jiang Li's queen, and although this concubine is the concubine of Jiang Li's monarch, she is not a noble concubine, so in terms of dignity, she is not as high as the crown prince Rong Jianghai's status, so Rong Jianghai can see him with a slight bow. Feng took care of Rong Jianghai and saluted like this, and he also hugged his fists slightly, covered half of his face with wide sleeves, and said: "The king of Yanlongning County has seen Concubine Niangniang. ”

Concubine Min hummed arrogantly, and then looked Fengzhao up and down with a pair of apricot eyes, a trace of surprise crossed her eyes, but she said arrogantly: "I have heard for a long time that the king of Yanlongning County is a talent, and what I see today is nothing more than that." ”

Fengzhao smiled faintly and did not talk. Rong Jianghai next to him hurriedly interrupted and said, "How can the seventh sister have free time today?" The girl next to her lightly opened her lips: "The mother concubine said that there are some good brocades in the prince's brother's mansion, let me take a look." As he spoke, his eyes were secretly looking at the wind to the side. Rong Jianghai pretended to be suddenly enlightened, patted his head and said: "Look at my memory, the envoy of Xiwu sent some excellent brocade the day before yesterday, I remember to bring some to my sister, how did I forget?" "

"I heard that the king of Ningjun of Yanlong has a strange personality and doesn't even listen to the words of the king of Yanlong, and he made a marriage contract with a woman privately, can it be true at this time. Concubine Min still asked reluctantly.

Feng Zhao took a sip of a glass of wine elegantly, then stared at the wine glass in his hand and paused for a while, before raising his handsome eyes and coldly swept over Concubine Meng's finely painted face and said lightly: "My father only cares about my brother's marriage, and I am just a prince who doesn't care about what kind of wife he marries, so I don't have to worry about my father." Looking at Fengzhao's cold temperament and listening to his cold words, Concubine Min's face couldn't help but change again and again, while the seventh princess on the side had never left Fengzhao's face for a moment, and a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes when she heard this.

Concubine Min wanted to say something, but unexpectedly, Feng Zhao hugged her fist at Rong Jianghai and said, "Since the princess and the princess have something to do, Yue Ning will retire." Without waiting for Rong Jianghai to say anything, Feng Zhao walked out with a flick of the sleeves of his robe, and did not glance at the seventh princess next to him from beginning to end. Looking at the back of Fengzhao, Concubine Min's delicately painted face suddenly changed shape, and her face was full of viciousness and anger. And the eyes of the seventh princess were already full of tears.
