Bai Zhi asked urgently: “What did he say in the letter? What is it all about? Did he find it or not?”
Dongfang Mu waved his hand: “I don’t know if he found it or not. He didn’t say it in his letter. It means he wants us to go there. I have nothing to do today, I will accompany you.”
Hu Feng sighed: “I wanted to go too, but unfortunately, the matter about Song Lang is not over yet. I can’t leave.”
Bai Zhi didn’t care whether he goes with them or not, she got up and pulled Dongfang Mu: “Let’s go, let’s go now.”
Dongfang Mu sat still and said, “That won’t work, I haven’t eaten breakfast yet. How can I go to work when I’m hungry?”
Bai Zhi understood his meaning. She shook her head helplessly and smiled bitterly: “Well, what do you want to eat? I’ll do it for you.”
Dongfang Mu immediately began to rub his palms. Bai Zhi’s dishes were more appetizing than the imperial cook in the palace. Everything she cooked was delicious.
Dongfang Mu hadn’t thought of what to eat, but Hu Feng interjected: “Egg pancake.”
Dongfang Mu hurriedly nodded: “Yes, egg pancake, this is good, this is good.”
Hu Feng said again: “Spicy noodles!”
Dongfang Mu nodded again: “Yes, not bad, that is good, that one is also good.”
Hu Feng swallowed and wanted to speak again, but Bai Zhi glared at him, “Aren’t you done yet? Do you want more? Aren’t you busy?”
Hu Feng laughed twice: “Then, just these two, but make it double!”
When Bai Zhi turned around and went out, Dongfang Mu said: “You kid, haven’t you eaten enough of my granddaughter’s cooking?”
Hu Feng nodded his head: “I have indeed eaten a lot. I have eaten them almost every day before, but I haven’t got tired of it. How fortunate it is!”
Dongfang Mu puzzled: “Fortunate? Fortunate, what?”
“How fortunate it is, that I can eat them for the rest of my life. I don’t have to worry about it. But master… … I’m afraid that you won’t have this blessing.” Hu Feng smiled smugly.
Dongfang Mu’s face immediately twisted: “You brat, you now have enough gall to curse me. You haven’t become the son-in-law of my Dongfang family. My granddaughter still lives with me. You go, you don’t need to have breakfast here. Go back to your house!”
Hu Feng immediately compromised. He said with a smile: “Don’t, I am just joking with you, it’s just a joke!”

At the Imperial Hospital
Princess Qianfang cried all night. Her eyes were swelling like a walnut. The veil on her face was soaked with tears, so it stuck on her cheeks, which outlined her beautiful facial features.
Jin’er embraced her in her arms and said a lot of comforting words. It was just a pity, all of them seem to be useless.
“Princess, this is the end of the matter. It’s useless to cry. Fortunately, you learned the truth much earlier. If you really go with him, the consequences are unimaginable.”
Princess Qianfang understood what she meant to say, but her heart ached when she thinks of her Brother Lang. She felt like someone stabbing her heart with a sharp knife, cutting it into pieces, throwing it on the ground, and letting people trampled on it. The pain she felt reached up to her bones.
“Princess, Miss Bai said, shizi has poisoned you. She can’t solve it. So she pretended to be you and went to meet shizi to know what poison he used out from his mouth.”
Princess Qianfang’s heart died and turned into ash. She doesn’t care whether she was poisoned or not. She just wanted to die. And if she will die, she wanted to die in her Brother Lang’s hands. If she can comfort him by losing her life, then it was worth it.
“Princess, did you hear what this servant said?”
Princess Qianfang looked at her and said: “If you are poisoned, then you are poisoned. Even if I die, what’s the fuss about it?” She said in a low tone.
