Liangchen smiled and said: "Miss Furong, it's not that I'm an outsider, but you are different now. You have become Mrs. Li's granddaughter, so naturally you are the daughter of a wealthy family. We are just people from the mountains and we don't dare to climb high. Otherwise, people will say that we are I don’t know how high the world is, but I actually call myself sister to a wealthy lady!”
Furong's face suddenly turned red and she was about to defend herself when Wu Zetian said: "Furong, Miss Liangchen was just joking, you don't have to mind. Since you are ready, let's set off now!"
Wu Zetian immediately bowed her hands to Chen Cunhua and Feiyun, took Furong's hand, and turned around to leave the yard. Wu Wei and Wu Zhong hurriedly followed, and the four of them quickly walked away.
Chen Cunhua walked outside the door and kept waving to each other until the backs of the four people could no longer be seen, then she put down her arms and slowly returned to the courtyard.
Seeing that Chen Cunhua was in a trance and depressed, Meimei said, "Auntie, since you are reluctant to leave Furong, why did you agree to Mrs. Li to let Furong accompany her?"
Chen Cunhua smiled bitterly, sighed, and said: "Who wants their children to leave their hometown and travel around all year round? But you can also see that we are a remote place. If the year is better, we can still have enough food and meet people. In lean years, it's hard to tell. If Furong can meet a wealthy family like Mrs. Li, and stay with her, she will naturally have enough food and clothing. No matter how reluctant I am, I can't delay her!"
After listening to Chen Cunhua's words, Feiyun and the others knew that what she said was the truth, so they comforted her with a few words. Under the guidance of good times and beautiful scenery, Chen Cunhua slowly calmed down.
Feiyun then nodded slightly towards Liangchen. Liangchen understood, took out a piece of silver, handed it to Chen Cunhua, and said: "Auntie, we have been staying at your house these days, and there has been a lot of disturbance. We are leaving too, This is a reward for you, it’s nothing but disrespectful!”
Chen Cunhua declined quickly and refused to accept anything she said. Chen Cunhua felt that accepting Wu Zetian's gold was a bit too much, so now she naturally refused to accept the money from Feiyun and the others.
Besides, Chen Cunhua also believed that apart from Wu Zetian, he must come from a rich family, and his family must have a huge fortune. A piece of gold may be nothing to Wu Zetian. But the three people in Feiyun are different. They obviously have average family backgrounds. Chen Cunhua refused to take it, so Liangchen had no choice but to put away the money.
Meijing and Feiyun led the horses outside the door. The three of them bowed their hands to Chencunhua, jumped on their horses, moved forward slowly, and soon left Guojiacun.
When they arrived at the entrance of the village, Wu Zetian and others were no longer visible. Meimei looked around and asked: "Brother, second sister, do we really not care about Wu Zetian? Then can we go back to Nanyue to return to Master?"
Feiyun hesitated for a moment and asked Liangchen, "Second sister, what do you mean?"
Liangchen smiled and said: "Brother, if we go back like this, what if Master asks us, did we send Wu Zetian to Luoyang? How should we answer?"
When Meimei heard this, she immediately said: "Brother, the second sister is right. We should still send Wu Zetian to Luoyang, otherwise we won't be able to explain to the master when we go back!"
In fact, Mei Mei didn't want to go back like this. She also wanted to visit Luoyang. The same goes for Liangchen. The two of them have never been to the Central Plains, so they inevitably want to see the local customs and customs of the Central Plains.
Feiyun laughed and said: "I know you haven't had enough fun yet, so of course you don't want to go back. In this case, second sister, the rest is all up to you!"
Liangchen knew that Feiyun was unwilling to protect Wu Zetian with Wu Wei and others, so he said that the three of them were following Wu Zetian and others. It's best if nothing happens. If they run into trouble, the three of them can help.
Liangchen also thought that Wu Wei must have taken Wu Zetian to Guojia Town at this time. They will rest one night in Guojia Town and continue westward tomorrow to Yuquan Temple.
Liangchen told Feiyun that the three of them were also resting in Guojia Town tonight. Wait for Wu Zetian in front tomorrow morning. Once they pass, follow them from a distance.
Liangchen estimated that Wu Zetian's journey would definitely not be smooth. There has been no news about Pei Shouyi and the other three recently, and they must be hiding everywhere in front of them. Xu Zhitang will not let Wu Zetian go easily and will definitely take action.
Feiyun listened to Liangchen's explanation and agreed with her opinion. In order not to run into Wu Zetian and others, the three of them left slowly. They chatted and enjoyed the scenery along the way while they were free to rein in the horse.
Unknowingly, at Shenshi time, Feiyun and the other three entered Guojia Town. The three of them were worried about running into Wu Zetian and others, so they did not go to a big inn, but found a small, remote inn. Feiyun and the others asked for two guest rooms and stayed there.
Feiyun estimated that Wuwei would definitely send many people to patrol the town and monitor the town. Feiyun was worried that he would meet these people when he went out, so he told Liangchen and Meimei not to go out.
Naturally, they knew the good time and the beautiful scenery very well, but after all, they were young and lively. The two girls felt it was too boring to stay in the room, so they ran to Feiyun's room to chat.
Feiyun was about to meditate and practice when he saw a good time and beautiful scenery. He knew that the two of them couldn't bear the loneliness, so he had to give up the idea of practicing and talk to them first.
Feiyun asked the two of them to sit down and said: "I have been very nervous these past few days and have never had the opportunity to practice my internal skills. Why don't you use this rare leisure to practice the Hunyuan Mind Technique and come to disturb me?"
Liangchen smiled and said: "Brother, it's still early, and we have plenty of time. After dinner, we will practice again. I have something that I haven't thought about clearly, so I came to you, and the three of us will analyze it together."
Feiyun smiled slightly and said: "You can't figure it out, and me and Mei Mei can't figure it out either. Third sister, what do you think?"
Meili curled her lips and said, "Brother, it's actually not a big deal. She thought there must be some conspiracy behind Wu Zetian accepting Furong as her grandniece. I told her that she was just overthinking it. Furong is smart, lively, sweet-looking, and personable. It’s very normal for Wu Zetian to like Furong!”
Feiyun thought for a while and said to Liangchen: "Second sister, I think what third sister said is reasonable. Furong is just an ordinary little girl in the mountain village, there is nothing special about her. Wu Zetian may have accepted Furong as her grandniece on a whim. She Maybe there is no other purpose, are you too worried?"
Liangchen shook his head, thinking that it was because there was nothing special about Furong that made Liangchen suspicious. Liangchen thought that for someone like Wu Zetian, if Furong really had no effect on her, she would not be so kind to Furong.
But Liangchen couldn't figure out what Wu Zetian saw in Fu Rong, so she deliberately wanted to win over Fu Rong. Although Fleur is very clever, she is not extremely smart. Although Furong is very beautiful, she is not considered stunning in the world.
Whether it is intelligence, beauty, temperament or background, Furong cannot compare to Li Xiaoyan. But Wu Zetian seemed to have no interest in Li Xiaoyan, on the contrary, she was a little wary of Li Xiaoyan. Wu Zetian valued Furong very much for no reason. There was really no reason.
Feiyun couldn't help but be startled when Liangchen mentioned Xiao Yan. After thinking about it carefully, he felt that something was indeed abnormal. It is indeed logical to say that Wu Zetian admires Xiao Yan very much. After all, Xiao Yan is better than Furong in every aspect, especially her talent and appearance, which is very eye-catching.
Feiyun couldn't figure out the reason, so he said: "Second sister, you don't have to think too much. Maybe Furong and Wu Zetian are destined to make them like each other. This matter has nothing to do with us, Wu Zetian will never go Harm Furong, Furong poses no threat to Wu Zetian, and will not be of any help to Wu Zetian. By the way, I just have something to ask you!"
Liangchen smiled and said that he knew what Feiyun wanted to know. Isn't it how she persuaded Wu Zetian? What else did Madam Wang talk to Wu Zetian.
Feiyun nodded when he saw Liangchen guessing it. But Feiyun also said that if Liangchen promised Wu Zetian to keep it secret, Liangchen didn't have to tell him.
After hearing Feiyun's words, Liangchen said unhappily: "Brother, what are you talking about? What would I hide from you and Sanmei? Even if I promised Wu Zetian, I would tell you. Wu Zetian and Wang The old lady also knew this, so she didn’t ask me not to tell you.”
Feiyun was not happy when he saw Liangchen and quickly apologized, saying that he had made a mistake. Feiyun grabbed Liangchen's hand again and lightly slapped his face twice as punishment.
Liangchen took the opportunity to twist Feiyun's face. Feiyun was caught off guard and screamed in pain, begging for mercy. Liangchen couldn't help but laugh happily when he saw Feiyun pretending.
Liangchen then told Feiyun and Meili that she actually didn't say anything to Wu Zetian, but just told Wu Zetian that if she didn't agree to pardon the Wang and Xiao families, she would not be able to leave the cave.
Liangchen also told Wu Zetian that his three brothers and sisters would definitely support Mrs. Wang on this point. If Wu Zetian refused to agree to this, the three of them would not help Wu Zetian. Instead, he would help Mrs. Wang deal with Wu Wei and others.
Liangchen believed that Mrs. Wang's request was reasonable and not excessive. On the contrary, what Wu Zetian did back then was extremely excessive.
Wu Zetian thought for a while and then agreed. However, according to Liangchen's opinion, Wu Zetian had actually already accepted Mrs. Wang's request in her heart and just found a suitable step to get down.
Meimei then asked Mrs. Wang and Wu Zetian what they had talked about in the end. Liangchen told Feiyun and Meili, but Mrs. Wang didn't say much, she just threatened Wu Zetian.
Mrs. Wang told Wu Zetian that the antidote she gave Wu Zetian could not completely detoxify. After she saw the pardon edict, she would naturally send someone to deliver the antidote to Wu Zetian.
Of course, within a year, Wu Zetian's poison will not attack, nor will it affect any of Wu Zetian's life. But if Wu Zetian hasn't taken the antidote in a year, she will die of poison, and even gods can't save her!
Wu Zetian was shocked when she heard this. She had never thought that Mrs. Wang had such a skill. Wu Zetian had no choice but to believe it in view of the hardships she had suffered before. She also knew that Mrs. Wang was a difficult person, and it was entirely possible to treat her like this.
After hearing what Mrs. Wang said, Liangchen was also very shocked. After thinking about it for a moment, Liangchen felt that Mrs. Wang would not lie, but that it was indeed true.
