C314 The prince leave the capital

The sun rose and set.

It was already winter and winter, but the Fifth Prince had to get up easily and rush to Jiangnan to take care of the salt transportation. The empress quickly prepared some luggage to send the Fifth Prince out of the capital city.

"Mother, your son will take at least three months to return from the capital this time. I can't be filial to you anymore, please take care of my health." When they parted ways, the Fifth Prince held onto the empress's hand as he spoke to the empress with sincere feelings.

The Fifth Prince was already at the age of a weak crown. However, he was, after all, a prince and had never left the capital before. Even when he was far away from the capital, his heart was still filled with unwillingness.

Compared to the Fifth Prince, the Empress's heart was even more filled with joy. For the Emperor to hand this matter over to the Fifth Prince, it was sufficient to show that the Emperor had higher expectations of him than others.

"My son, this is a very important matter. When encountering something, you must think it over carefully. You absolutely must not make any mistakes." The Empress repeatedly warned the Fifth Prince, hoping that he would rely on this matter to gain the emperor's favor.

The Fifth Prince nodded his head and bowed towards the empress. With a resolute gaze, he said, "Imperial Mother can rest assured that this son will do his best and will definitely not disappoint Imperial Mother."

It was cold outside, so the Fifth Prince bade farewell to the Emperor and Queen before leaving for Jiangnan. At this moment, he was full of ambition. He wholeheartedly wanted to complete the task given to him by the Emperor, to satisfy the Emperor and the Empress. However, he still did not know what sort of enormous whirlpool awaited him in the Jiang Nan that travelled tens of thousands of miles.

On the day that the Fifth Prince left the Li Palace, the Jin Country welcomed the greatest snowfall in thirty years. Snow swirled in the air, as if it wanted to completely cut him off from the world he lived in.

However, no one knew that the Duan Yunfei of that day was standing on top of the palace wall. As she leaned against the city wall with her hands behind her back, she stared blankly at the Fifth Prince's figure that had gone far away.

"Princess, the Fifth Prince has already left." Xiao Yang stood behind her and used his hands to lightly brush away the snow on her shoulders. He couldn't help but remind her: "The weather is cold, let's go back early."

Hearing Xiao Yang's words, Duan Yunfei came back to his senses. He looked at Xiao Yang and laughed faintly.

"The Fifth Prince is only in the year of the weak. If he was born in a rich and powerful family, he would have to properly study and build a family, but when he was born in this palace city, he would have to shoulder too many burdens." As Duan Yunfei spoke, she let out a heavy sigh.

Xiao Yang supported Duan Yunfei, and followed along as she sighed: "Of all the children who grew up in this palace city, who could possibly escape from all these? Princess, let's not talk about others. Aren't you the same as well? "

Hearing Xiao Yang's words, Duan Yunfei was unknowingly stunned for a moment. She turned her head to look at Xiao Yang, and then, she smiled lightly.

As far as he could see, the Fifth Prince's figure was no longer present, and even the traces of the wagon that he'd just passed were covered by a new sense of snow.

Duan Yunfei felt a little cold, so she waved her hand towards Xiao Yang and said softly, "Go back."

When she returned to the Red Luan Courtyard, Mu Chuyang was flying along the eaves, jumping up and down along the eaves. It was unknown what he was doing.

Duan Yunfei threw a small stone at him, causing him to stand up in shock.

"A dignified Young Prince of the Mu Family is actually like a thief who has come to uncover the secrets of our house. What crime should he be punished for?" Duan Yunfei stood in the center of the courtyard with his hands on his hips, looking at Mu Chuyang, and said while pretending to be angry.

Seeing that Duan Yunfei had returned, Mu Chuyang hurriedly jumped down from the roof and walked in front of him while smiling.

"Now, it's winter, winter, and the moon, and the continuous snowfall has arrived. I saw that your roof was leaking, so I went up to help you repair it." I didn't expect you to have the name of a Thief. This is truly unfair. " Mu Chuyang said to Duan Yunfei as he deliberately pretended to be pitiful and looked at Duan Yunfei with a wronged expression.

"So it's like that. That's because I misunderstood the good intentions of the Young Prince Mu." Seeing Mu Chuyang's situation, Duan Yunfei could not help but burst out laughing. He extended his hand and patted's shoulder, and said to Mu Chuyang straightforwardly: "Since I have to trouble Young Prince Mu to do it personally, then I cannot appear to be too petty, Young Prince Mu can speak freely, and would like to know how you will repay me."

"If you really want to repay me, it would be great if you could repay me with your body." Mu Chuyang looked at Duan Yunfei shamelessly, revealing a sly smile.

Just as Mu Chuyang's voice fell, Duan Yunfei struck out without any warning, heavily hitting Mu Chuyang on the shoulder. After that, she walked into the house without even turning her head back.

"Hey, it hurts, you hit my wound!" Mu Chuyang held onto his shoulder, squatting down and moaning.

Duan Yunfei stopped in her tracks, turned around and looked at Mu Chuyang, then said to him with her head raised: "Young Prince Mu's acting skills are really clumsy, you were injured on your right shoulder, and I just bumped into your left shoulder."

With a "bang", Duan Yunfei tightly closed the door.

Mu Chuyang saw that his thoughts had been exposed, and immediately became serious, pushing open the door and chasing after his.

"The Fifth Prince has already left the capital?" Mu Chuyang withdrew his mischievous smile and asked Duan Yunfei seriously.

Duan Yunfei glanced at Mu Chuyang, and then nodded lightly.

She did not say a word, but only brought over the hot liquor she had just boiled just now, and poured herself a cup as well as Mu Chuyang's.

"Alright. Since he has already left the capital, the rest is up to me. " Mu Chuyang pondered for a moment, then said those words to Duan Yunfei, and unconsciously revealed a faint smile.

Duan Yunfei did not reply, she only raised the wine cup in front of him and blew away the mist on it, then used her mouth to sip. Warm wine flowed from her tongue and slowly flowed into her body.

Green ant new fermented wine, red mud small stove. If you came late, would you drink nothing?

After a long while, Duan Yunfei finally opened her mouth and called out to Mu Chuyang.

"Mu Chuyang, the Fifth Prince has only just become weak, he does not know about the darkness in the palace in the slightest. He's really innocent. " Duan Yunfei's expression was somewhat excited, she raised her head and looked at Mu Chuyang.

Before Duan Yunfei could finish, Mu Chuyang interrupted her.

Mu Chuyang walked in front of Duan Yunfei, stretched out his hand to grasp her fingertip, and looked into her eyes: "Little Thirteen, most of the people in this palace are innocent. If Fifth Prince is like this, you are no exception. However, we are all deceiving ourselves. If we do not take advantage of this opportunity to bring down the empress, then there will be endless trouble in the future. Don't forget, the Fifth Prince is the Empress's son, her greatest hope. "

Hearing Mu Chuyang's words, Duan Yunfei became silent and was unable to say a single word.
