"If the news from the prince is correct, it should be within the next two days." Shen Haoxuan waved his fan and slowly answered the question that Shang Zhiqing had whispered to him just now.
"Really?" Shang Zhiqing was immediately beaming with joy as she exclaimed.
Tch, Shen Haoxuan placed the fan on the table, pretending to be angry, "Do you think I would lie to you?"
"No, no." Shang Zhiqing immediately started massaging Shen Haoxuan's back and shoulders in an attempt to curry favor.
Shen Haoxuan closed his eyes in satisfaction.
"Giddap!"
Xie Qingrong held onto the reins in one hand and the whip in the other hand as she patted the horse's back. Xuanyuan Chen and the rest led the imperial guards along as they walked slowly on the public road.
That day, when she had sent a message to Leng Tianning with the pigeon, she had clearly told Leng Tianning that she would arrive in the capital three days ago.
Currently, she was only fifty li away from the capital, and there was only one day left until the three day agreement.
Today, at the eleventh hour, she would be able to arrive in the capital.
The snow flew past on both sides of the road. Wild flowers bloomed brightly on both sides, flashing with layers of gorgeous colors.
However, she was not in the mood to admire this rare beauty.
Four figures flashed past Treading on Snow's body. Xie Qingrong suddenly turned his head, and could only see a few vague outlines. They gradually turned into little black dots, and disappeared in the end.
"That beautiful big sister looked really familiar. Why did you cover my mouth and not let me call her?" A young girl around the age of ten angrily glared at him.
Opposite her stood a very refined young man in white.
"Changle, did you forget?" The youth was waving his fan, appearing to be a handsome and elegant young man. However, his eyes were cold and indifferent.
"You have to listen to Ziyi gege when you go out. You're not allowed to run around, and you're not allowed to contradict Ziyi gege either." The cute girl pouted and was extremely dissatisfied with the youth's actions just now. "But big brother Zi Yi, Chang Le only wants to stop that pretty big sister."
The youth put away his folding fan and lightly tapped the girl's head, pretending to have a straight face as he said, "But that elder sister just now clearly had something important to do. What if Chang Le stops her and interferes with elder sister's work?"
"Alright, Zichen-gege, you're right." The little girl pouted her lips, walked to the back of Jing Feng in an aggrieved manner, and hid herself.
Jing Feng was startled by the little girl's actions, he hurriedly turned around and squatted down, then used an extremely respectful and doting voice to coax the little girl: "Young mistress. Mistress is doing it for your own good, so don't get angry with Mistress, okay? We have to get into the city before it gets dark. "
"Alright then. I reluctantly agreed to it. "
The little girl only tilted her head slightly, but mischievously agreed with Jing Feng.
Once Jing Feng saw that the young mistress had been coaxed by him, he consciously brought her to his side. The little girl coldly snorted and unwillingly held onto the young man's hand.
Actually, the little girl really liked to hold hands with the youth. The youth's hands were wide and warm, and every time they held hands, there was always an indescribable sense of security.
Xie Qingrong was still flying rapidly towards the capital, completely unaware of what had happened after she had stepped on the snow.
After just a short while, the tall walls of the capital city of Heavenly Sage Kingdom were already faintly discernable, and gradually appeared before Xie Qingrong's eyes.
After entering the capital, the speed of running on the snowy streets became slower and slower. Although it was already ten years old and every household was preparing dinner, there were still a few pedestrians on the streets.
If they were too fast, they would run into passersby.
He slowly walked on the street while treading on the snow.
Suddenly, he heard the sounds of horse hooves coming from the distance, and the pedestrians on the street all avoided them. Xie Qingrong held onto the reins, and just as he was about to walk towards the side of the road while stepping on the snow, he saw a child standing on the street.
The surrounding pedestrians didn't have the time to step forward and pull her away, and they all had troubled expressions on their faces.
At this moment, the dark brown horse had already galloped over.
In the nick of time, he saw the horse that was running at full speed was about to put the child under the horse's hooves. Xie Qingrong lightly tapped his toes on the horse's back and in a flash, he embraced the innocent child into his arms.
The violet-gold whip had already been extracted from the back of its waist. It swung its whip on the horse's head, causing it to scream in pain.
Xie Qingrong then seized the chance to carry the child and whip him.
As for the girl riding on the dark brown horse, she was in a terrible situation. No matter how much the girl tied the reins, she was unable to ease the horse from the pain. In the end, the horse threw the girl off.
Fortunately, the girl knew some martial arts. She rolled twice on the ground, using her palms to support herself as she somersaulted in the air and stood up.
"Who are you? How dare you injure my Liu Xu! "
The young girl was dressed in red with delicate facial features. Her face was filled with a domineering and arrogant expression, and her eyes were currently glaring furiously.
Xie Qingrong placed the child on the ground and helped the child tidy up his clothes. After confirming that the child was safe and sound, she finally relaxed.
He ignored the girl in red's question and walked to Treadmill's side. Just as he was about to jump onto the horse.
The young girl's sharp eyes discovered that the snow-white horses were actually Treading on the snow. She cried out in alarm, "Treading on the snow!" Then, she stared at Xie Qingrong suspiciously for a while, before realizing that Xie Qingrong was holding onto a whip.
It was actually a violet-gold whip.
The girl asked sternly: "How did you get the Big Brother Chen's violet-gold whip? Could it be that you stole it from the Big Brother Chen? See if I can't teach you, a thief, a good lesson today! "
With that, he swung the horsewhip in his hand towards Xie Qingrong.
Xie Qingrong tilted his body slightly to the side and dodged her attack. With a swing of the violet-gold whip in his hand, she wrapped herself around the girl's whip and pulled fiercely. The girl's body leaned forward uncontrollably.
Xie Qingrong used her violet-gold whip to bind the girl together.
The girl glared angrily at Xie Qingrong and threatened fiercely: "You actually dared to tie me up, release me! Otherwise, if you don't have a good dinner, you might as well eat it! "
Xie Qingrong held onto the violet-gold whip's handle with her right hand, without even looking at the girl once, she asked indifferently: "I wonder why this lady did not give me the good fruit to eat?"
She usually hated people who threatened her the most!
"Do you know who I am?" After finishing her words, the young lady's eyebrows shot up, as though she was confident in her identity.
If she knew his identity, she would definitely curry favor with him and he would teach her a lesson.
"I don't know." Xie Qingrong replied coldly, as if she was not interested in the girl's identity.
My father is General Lin Lin Yi! You must be scared! Hurry and let me go. "
Hearing that, Xie Qingrong looked at the young lady in surprise.
After the girl revealed her identity, when she saw Xie Qingrong's shocked expression, she thought that she was afraid. She then looked away disdainfully, waiting for the man to let him go.
Then he would let himself do as he pleased.
