Xiaoling suddenly opened her eyes wide. "What? Master, you're going to run away from home?"
Feng Yunshu nodded. "That's right. We absolutely can't let this old fox be so arrogant any longer!"
"Has Master thought about where to go?"
Xiaoling was a bit excited. She jumped in front of Feng Yunshu and blinked her starry eyes.
"We can find a place with abundant spiritual energy to settle down. It'd be best if there are also lots of delicious snacks and small taverns around. Then we can not only practice but also enjoy good food!"
Feng Yunshu couldn't help laughing. "You really have quite a wonderful imagination..."
"Now is not the time to play. The reason I said I'm going to run away from home is not entirely because of Helan Yanting. Actually, I have other purposes."
"What purpose?"
"These days when I was regulating my breath, I found that my meridians were a bit blocked. I even specially prepared several kinds of pills for myself, but they didn't work. This poison is still in my body."
"What? There's such a thing? Let me feel it."
Xiaoling stretched out her paw and placed it on Feng Yunshu's pulse. After feeling for a moment, she couldn't help frowning. "Master, your meridians are indeed blocked and a bit disordered. You can't gather your energy in the Dantian."
Feng Yunshu nodded, looking a bit solemn. "This poison was already on the original owner when I was reborn. It was probably poisoned by someone in the Prime Minister's Mansion. As for who poisoned me..."
"Does Master already have a guess?"
Xiaoling had been with Feng Yunshu for two lifetimes and knew her quite well.
Feng Yunshu squinted her eyes and stared blankly at the flickering candle on the table. "It's said that every grievance has its origin. Since I've occupied Miss Feng's body, I should avenge her."
"I've done almost all the preparations during this period. I've also learned more about this otherworld. Now that the time is ripe, it's time to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion and stir up that muddy water."
Feng Yunshu was a bit excited and looking forward to the upcoming drama. She was rubbing her hands in anticipation, and Xiaoling raised both paws to show her support.
"I like playing this game of teasing people the most! It must be great fun!"
The master and servant reached an agreement. They packed their things at night. They mainly took away all the bottles, jars, and all the money and jewelry in their small cubicle. They didn't care about the rest as they could buy them again.
Before dawn, Feng Yunshu carried her bag and slipped into Ziyuan's room. She originally planned to check on her physical condition and give her a few instructions before leaving. But unexpectedly, when Ziyuan learned that she was going back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, she immediately said that she wanted to go with her.
"Miss, Ziyuan's life was saved by you. Wherever you go, Ziyuan will go. Besides, Ziyuan's body has almost recovered. There won't be any big problems."
Under Ziyuan's insistence, Feng Yunshu finally nodded and agreed to her. "Alright then, you can go back with me. Anyway, with this young lady around, I won't let anything happen to you again."
Soon, the three of them were ready to sneak out of the Helan Prince's Mansion.
Before leaving, Feng Yunshu left a "divorce letter" on the table in her room. There were a few big characters written on the cover: "For Helan's Eyes Only"!
When it was just dawn, Feng Yunshu left the prince's mansion through the back door with Ziyuan and Xiaoling.
At the same time, in Helan Yanting's room.
"Your Highness, the princess has left the mansion with Miss Ziyuan and that spiritual fox. Before she left, the princess also left a... a letter on the table in her room for Your Highness to read in person... Does Your Highness want to chase the princess back?"
As he said that, Yan Qi handed the envelope to Helan Yanting. However, the expression on the master's face at this moment made him feel uneasy.
Helan Yanting took the envelope and opened it. His face became visibly more solemn. Yan Qi clearly felt the temperature in the room drop suddenly.
"This is the first time I've been served with a divorce letter. Hehe..."
Yan Qi stood there, looking straight ahead, only hoping that the master's anger wouldn't affect him.
Helan Yanting pinched the divorce letter. After being silent for a while, he slowly said, "Yan Qi."
Yan Qi's heart skipped a beat. He suddenly looked up. "What's Your Highness's order?"
Helan frowned slightly and his voice was low. "Do you think it's really that excessive for me to hide my identity?"
"This..." Yan Qi thought that the prince must be so angry that he would chase the princess back. He didn't expect such a question. He was a bit confused.
"Hmm?"
Helan looked up. Yan Qi immediately shook his head. "No, no. This subordinate thinks that it's a wise decision for Your Highness to hide your identity. It's also for the overall situation. The princess just doesn't understand Your Highness's situation. This subordinate thinks that if the princess understands Your Highness's situation, she will surely understand Your Highness!"
"Really?"
Yan Qi nodded. "Every word from this subordinate comes from the bottom of my heart. Moreover, this subordinate can see that the princess must also have feelings for Your Highness in her heart."
"How do you know that?"
"If the princess didn't have feelings for Your Highness in her heart, why would she care so much about Your Highness hiding your identity? Moreover, the princess also cares very much about Your Highness's safety."
Helan Yanting's expression softened a bit. Yan Qi felt the temperature in the room rise. He couldn't help sighing in relief. It seemed that he had said the right thing this time.
"Tell Yan Liu to follow the princess secretly. Report all her actions in the Prime Minister's Mansion to me. If she is in danger, immediately step forward to protect her."
After hearing this, Yan Qi quickly nodded. "Yes, Your Highness! This subordinate will go and arrange it right away."
Just as Yan Qi was about to turn around and leave, he was called back by Helan Yanting. "Yan Qi."
"What else does Your Highness want to order?"
Helan Yanting said seriously, "Do you know what girls like?"
"This..." Yan Qi was almost dizzy from these questions. I'm neither a girl nor in a relationship. Where can I know the answer...
"This subordinate once heard from other brothers that women generally like beautiful dresses and precious jewelry."
"Okay, you can go."
Yan Qi left nervously. He didn't touch the cold sweat on his forehead until he walked outside the room.
Inside the room, Helan Yanting looked down at the "divorce letter" in his hand and whispered, "Feng Yunshu..."
...
At the same time, Feng Yunshu and her group were already standing in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
On the way here, Feng Yunshu would turn around from time to time and even always had auditory hallucinations. She felt that there was a carriage following her. However, every time she turned around, there was no one behind her.
Xiaoling couldn't help saying, "Master, are you looking to see if the people of Prince Helan are following us?"
"Of course not. Whether his people come or not has nothing to do with me. I'm just worried that someone is following us."
Xiaoling nodded half - believing. "Master, are we really leaving like this? Will we never go back to the Helan Prince's Mansion again?"
"Didn't you say you still wanted to sleep? Why do you have so many words? Go to sleep quickly. You'll be there when you wake up."
Feng Yunshu seemed to have been hit on her sore spot. She flicked Xiaoling on the head. Xiaoling quickly shrank into Ziyuan's arms and pretended to sleep with her eyes closed. She couldn't afford to offend her.
When they arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ziyuan looked at the gate of the mansion with a hesitant look on her face. After hesitating for a long time, she said.
"Miss, last time you designed to rescue Ziyuan and gave a heavy blow to the First Lady and the Second Miss. Now they must bear a grudge against us. Will it be like a lamb walking into the tiger's den if we just go in like this?"
Feng Yunshu looked up at the plaque on the gate and sneered. "The devil may be one foot tall, but the Buddha is ten feet tall. I'm not a soft persimmon to be kneaded. Besides, who said we are lambs? We are wolves in sheep's clothing. Hehe."
