  That night, Zhang Qi slept very sweetly. Watching entertaining pictures just went up

  She slept until noon the next day, and woke up in a daze. After washing up hastily, she remembered that she was with Prince Lanling, and rushed out of the room door.

  As soon as she stepped out of her room, she saw Langling Wang standing outside her door with his hands behind his back, quietly gazing into the distance, lost in thought.

  In his hand, a carrier pigeon was still perched. Upon hearing her footsteps, he slowly and deliberately threw the pigeon to one of the guards standing in the courtyard, then casually put a piece of paper into his bosom before turning around to look at Zhang Qi.

  Langling Wang looked at Zhang Qi with an expressionless face and asked faintly: "Are you hungry? Do you want to have a meal?"

  Zhang Qi blinked and asked in a low voice: "Aren't you going out today?"

  Looking at the blue under her eyes, Lang Ling Wang's voice was cold and flat, "Rest for a few days."

  "Oh." As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Qi let out a small yawn, covering her cherry lips with her hand and blinking sleepily: "Then I'll sleep some more" After that, she went back to bed.

  Looking at her back, Prince Langling's lips curled slightly, and he turned around and walked into the courtyard.

  The guard who took over the pigeon approached quietly and asked: "Your Highness, have you received all the letters? Do you still need to rest for a few more days?"

  "Alright."

  Following closely behind Langling Wang, the guard asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, what did His Majesty say?"

  The King of Lanling paused, a cold smile spreading across his lips as he said, "Your Majesty says that Zheng Shi repeatedly cried out the Empress Dowager's name and fainted several times. Seeing her like this, he didn't dare to mention our divorce." It was just that he didn't want to speak up.

  What kind of person is Your Majesty? He is the one who can wear red robes and drink fine wine as soon as the Empress Dowager has just passed away, and it's really ridiculous to mention the word "filial piety" to him!

  "The queen's place, is it really unwilling?"

  The King of Lanling lowered his eyes, and after a while, he said faintly, "Not bad."

  He waved his hand and ordered, "Notify everyone for now. Just say that since we've come out this time, the duration of our stay will be short, at least a year or more, so that everyone can prepare mentally. One day, Zheng's patience will wear thin, Your Majesty will be in trouble both domestically and internationally, and he will be willing to compromise."

  He then said, "Send the homing pigeon back to the Wang Manor and tell them that I have found Ah Gui. She is reluctant to leave her hometown, so she refuses to return to Qi State. Therefore, I will accompany her in settling down in Chen State. Once we have children, we will bring Old Fang over to raise them together!"

  As soon as he said this, the guard's eyes widened. The King of Lanling smiled faintly and slowly said: "This way, they will be anxious, everyone will be anxious."

  "Yes."

  After some thought, the guard looked at Zhang Qi's room and asked in a low voice: "Since the king has made up his mind to divorce, why not tell Zhang Qi this good news and let her have no more doubts?"

  His voice had just fallen when Langling Wang coldly said, "Why should I let her have no more doubts?" He gritted his teeth and said, "She has died several times, causing me to be heartbroken many times. Why should I let her have no more doubts?"

  Watching Lang Ling Wang walk away, the guard stood in place with his mouth agape, and after a while, he stuttered: "Th-th-this isn't to make you two get along sooner? Every night listening to wolf howls, everyone can't sleep well!" Suddenly he looked crestfallen again, muttering to himself: "This is also possible, really...really..." What it was, even he didn't know.

  It was already November at this time.

  The sky has entered winter, the cold wind blows on the body, bringing a chilly feeling. The grass and trees have begun to wither and turn yellow, and the sky is also gloomy. Looking at this situation, I'm afraid it won't be long before there will be heavy rain.

  Zhang Qi thought: I'm afraid we won't make it to Chen's place this year.

  Returned to Chen with Prince Langling, which made her have nothing good to expect from returning to Chen...

  She slept again, and when she woke up it was already late afternoon. Under the pressure of Lanling King, Zhang Gui ate another bowl of mutton. To be honest, this meat was really nourishing, and after eating two meals, Zhang Gui's face had some color, and her body felt warmer too. However, due to exhaustion and illness, she still hadn't fully recovered from the weight loss.

  While eating her meal, Zhang Qi gazed out at the street scene outside. Under her veil, her eyes shone brightly.

  He glanced at her and stood up, taking her hand, "Let's go."

  He led her into the street.

  Today it got dark early, people in Jingyuan City took advantage of the remaining light to gather together in twos and threes, chatting and laughing, strolling and playing.

  Zhang Yi's hand was tightly grasped by Langling Wang, walking like this on the street, in the crowd that flowed like water, listening to people's whispers and snickers, somehow giving Zhang Yi a sense of ordinariness.

  Zhang Qi looked at the crowd flowing by with a shallow smile, and Lang Ling Wang asked in a low voice: "Do you like Jingyuan City?"

  Zhang Qi shook her head, "I don't like it."

  When she spoke to herself in that soft and gentle Wu dialect, drawing out the long tones, Langling Wang felt a little dazed and enchanted. Unconsciously, his voice also softened, "Why?"

  "This is a land of savagery!" Zhang Qi looked somewhat annoyed, and muttered: "There are too many wolves, not at all the peaceful Chen State!"

  As soon as the words came out, the two guards who were closely following behind the two people suddenly coughed at the same time. After just one cough, a cold light appeared before them, and they quickly turned their heads around, making an effort to look around in all directions, resolutely not looking back at the two people.

  Zhang Qi also didn't notice their abnormality, she bit her lip and muttered: "The south is the best, there are no wolves outside the city in the south."

  "Oh?" He tightened his grip on her hand and asked again, "Which city in the south do you like?"

  Zhang Qi thought for a while with her head tilted, and after a long time, she said in a low voice: "I like the prosperous ones without war."

  Is there such a place in this world? Moreover, the solar eclipse had just occurred not long ago... The King of Lanling looked down at Zhang Yi, his large hand wrapped around her small one, and said gently: "Alright, when we reach that kind of city, we'll stop."

  Aren't we going to Jiankang? Why did we stop at such a place? Zhang Gui was somewhat perplexed.

  After resting for four days in Jingyuan City, Zhang Qi also slept for four days and the team set off again.

  This time on the official road, people coming and going, obviously more than usual. It seems that many businessmen want to make their last deal of the year before the big snow falls.

  In the midst of these people coming and going, they saw Lanling King leading a group of 500 robust warriors, each one proceeding cautiously. When they found out that they were marching in an orderly manner and handling matters with restraint, many of them had second thoughts and went forward to attach themselves to him, wanting to be incorporated into his ranks.

  The King of Lanling was unwilling. Sitting in the carriage, he leisurely waved away the crowd, turned his head to glance at Zhang Yi who had started dozing off, and then gazed at the withered tree branches on one side. Slowly, a smile spread across his lips.

  It's been a whole year now, and it wasn't until this moment that he felt peace and joy.

  With a glance, he saw Zhang Qi's little head starting to knock again, and the King of Lanling stretched out his arm and forcibly pulled her into his embrace.

  Just as he was about to hug her tightly, Zhang Qi suddenly opened her eyes in a daze and said with a smile: "I knew it was you who pulled me strongly, I wouldn't fall asleep and run into your arms." She hadn't woken up yet, her eyes were still half-closed, but she smiled happily.

  As soon as the words fell, Langling Wang stared at her with a heavy gaze. He looked at her sternly and said faintly, "What's that to you?" After speaking, he locked his arms tightly, making her stick closer to his chest.

  Zhang Qi blinked her dazed eyes, and her confused brain was also thinking: Ah, what's the big deal? Zhang Qi mumbled for a while, but she was really too tired, and couldn't hold on for long before falling asleep again.

  Before I knew it, night had fallen again.

  Looking at the scattered tents and bonfires all over the desolate plain, Zhang Gui took a deep breath and thought to himself: Tonight, no need to fear wolves.

  Perhaps it was because the 500 soldiers led by Langling Wang were too elite, and on this day, they got along with each other and found out that these 500 people were disciplined and dignified. Unconsciously, many small merchant teams had a dependent heart. So when these 500 people stopped to set up camp, they also stopped nearby.

  Zhang Qi, who was forced to eat a bowl of mutton, shrank his hands and feet and crawled into the carriage. As the weather got colder and colder, the carriage had already been laid with thick animal hides and quilts, which were very comfortable and warm.

  She snuggled into the bedding, and let out a comfortable sigh. She turned her head to look at the torches burning around the carriage, gazing at the distant figure of Lang Ling Wang standing straight and tall, before becoming dazed for a while, her eyelids growing heavier and heavier until she gradually fell asleep.

  She slept soundly, but the King of Lanling outside did not sleep. After dinner, he read a book by candlelight for a while, and then listened to the guard talk about some big and small things that happened in his mansion. He slowly stepped into the darkness, with his hands behind his back, staring at the stars in the sky in a daze.

  He didn't sleep, and several guards didn't either. One of the guards rubbed the back of his head and whispered to his companion beside him, "Tonight, we shouldn't have to howl like wolves, right?"

  Another guard also opened his eyes. Before long, he waved his hand and said, "Go to sleep first, this is the king's trouble!"

  Just as he finished speaking, Langling Wang beckoned from a short distance away.

  The guard who spoke first hastily stepped forward.

  In the darkness, Langya Wang stood quietly, under the faint light of a distant fire, his expression was noble and majestic, with an air of dignity and grandeur, his whole being was solemn as a mountain, exuding a kind of steady calmness that did not allow for frivolous words.

  "Where is your mount?"

  "Over there."

  "Bring it over and tie it next to the carriage. Right, while you're at it, put out those torches too."

  "Ah? Yes." The guard trotted over, leading his horse to the carriage where Zhang Gui was. At this time, the carriage was standing alone in the darkness, and the four horses that had been pulling it were led aside according to custom to rest.

  As he walked, the guard muttered to himself: "What is the king up to?" He looked back at his mount. This horse was quite good, with endurance and a gentle disposition, except that it had insomnia at night.

  Zhang Qi slept very soundly.

  She felt a little uneasy after falling asleep.

  It seems that something has been blowing air at her from the side, and from time to time it walks around her. With its movement, a gust of dark wind whizzes by...

  There's a ghost!

  Zhang Qi suddenly opened her eyes wide.

  It was pitch black outside the carriage.

  Zhang Qi trembled, and after a while, she mustered up the courage to quietly lift her head and look in the direction that made her feel uneasy. At this moment, the car curtain shook, and a huge skull squeezed in. In the boundless darkness, Zhang Qi suddenly met its pair of eyes emitting a faint glow!

  "Ah——" A sharp cry suddenly came in the dark night, and the people around were startled for a moment, but the cry stopped abruptly.

  There were some people who lifted the flap of the tent and saw that the young leader, who was always wearing a veil, carefully carried out a woman from a horse carriage, patting her back gently and coaxing her, while walking towards his main tent in the middle...
