While Liusu was still having a farewell meal with Li Zhao, Tan Feng had already rushed back to the capital on a fast horse.

As soon as he showed up, he was stopped by several big men. Several of them had faces from the Western Regions, and the leader spoke jerky Chinese.

"His Royal Highness Lou Yuan wants to see you."

In order not to attract attention, Lou Yuan lived in Shangbei Street, where people from the Western Regions gathered. He was surrounded by merchants from various countries in the Western Regions. The street was very lively. When there were customers, they introduced their products in fluent Chinese. When there were no customers, they would introduce their products. The merchants chatted animatedly.

Qin Feng led Guyun to the market. The merchants on both sides were trying to recruit him, but he was shocked by the several big Rouran men walking around him. He suddenly realized that this was the customer of a certain big shot inside, so he didn't dare to Provoke again.

Scanning the dazzling array of merchandise, Qin Feng couldn't help but think of the time when he first went to Jinzhou. His senior brother was afraid that he would be bored and want to go back to Jiangning, so he took him out for a walk. The streets were full of exotic gadgets, and the gifts he bought were all It's still in the small courtyard, and I didn't take it with me when I left.

When I think of these memories now, it feels like a lifetime ago.

From the moment he accepted Chu Hong's kindness, he was destined to go against his senior brother.

So, when he walked to the stall, several big men looked at each other and did not say anything or stop him. Tan Feng didn't care. They couldn't really do anything in broad daylight. What's more, he just wanted to buy something.

He picked things quickly and came back after paying. A few big men saw that he was holding a palm-sized exquisite glass bottle in his hand, and he happily showed it to them.

"Let's go."

The glass vase was prepared by him for Guhari, but the sharp-eyed Lou Yuan saw it.

Stepping into a courtyard, surrounded by Western-style decorations, it felt like entering another country. Tan Feng was invited in. Lou Yuan stood at the door, wearing soft clothes, with braids flowing neatly on his shoulders, and his deep eyes like She was as sharp as a wolf, but she was waiting for him to come with a smile.

"It's really difficult to meet you."

"I heard you were looking for me everywhere."

Qin Feng reached out and touched Gu Yun's neck, motioning him to wait aside. Then he handed the reins to the person next to him and walked straight to Lou Yuan. Without any greetings, he said straight to the point: "Lou Yuan, I want to see Gu Hali." Princess."

Hearing him say this, Lou Yuan's smile gradually disappeared, and he spread out his palm in front of him, with the dagger engraved with the word "Lou Yuan" lying on it.

Qin Feng frowned and said nothing.

"Why don't you speak?"

Lou Yuan stared at him disappointedly, but still couldn't see a trace of nostalgia on his face.

Suddenly, Qin Feng smiled: "It seems that Mr. Zhao Xiaohou did not break his promise and did return the dagger to you."

"you"

Lou Yuan opened his mouth, and for a moment he didn't know how to talk to him. He lowered his eyes and caught a glimpse of a glass bottle tied to his waist. He felt happy and said, "If you like things from the Western Regions, I can get you more." many."

"No need."

Tan Feng said softly and refused.

"I was just passing by and bought one to give to Princess Guhari as a farewell gift."

Lou Yuan was really frustrated by his incomprehensible attitude and said: "It's just a broken bottle, what kind of gift can it be? Besides, it's not appropriate to give a gift from another country to someone from another country."

Tan Feng was unimpressed and replied: "It doesn't matter which country's etiquette or how much money you have. The etiquette is light but the affection is heavy."

Lou Yuan was deflated and his chest was heaving.

"You really don't want to go back to Rouran with us?"

Tan Feng glanced at him and corrected him: "You are going back and I am going. That's right. I don't plan to go to the royal court with you."

After hearing this, Lou Yuan turned around and headed upstairs, followed closely by Qin Feng. The sound of stepping on the wooden ladder under his feet was heavy and thick. Lou Yuan's voice was mixed with unbreakable depression.

"why?"

"Winter is about to come. Winter on the grassland is the coldest. I don't like winter."

"You're lying, you obviously want to go to the grassland."

"Yes."

"Then you." Lou Yuan turned around and looked at Tan Feng with two or three steps. Tan Feng's figure was not very clear in the dim place.

"Let's go."

Tan Feng said these two words helplessly, obviously not wanting to continue this topic.

Lou Yuan clenched his fist and said, "Okay."

Ever since she was found and brought here by Lou Yuan, Guhari has been locked up in a small building with guards around her. Over the past few days, she has been facing boring things every day, and she has inevitably become a lot more tired.

The door was opened from the outside. Guhari squinted her eyes to adapt to the bright light, not paying any attention to the appearance of the person coming.

After a moment of movement, the door was closed again.

A flash of bright color flashed in the air, and Guhali subconsciously reached out to pick it up. There was a cold touch in her palm, and it turned out to be a glass bottle. She suddenly raised her head and looked at the direction in which the bottle was flying. Tan Feng stood at the door and stared at her.

"You finally came!"

Guhari wanted to stand up excitedly, but her legs were numb from sitting for a long time.

"I am coming."

Tan Feng strolled up to her, pointed at the glass bottle, and said, "I put the antidote in the bottle, so you can rest assured."

When she heard the word "antidote", Guhari quickly opened the bottle and checked. It was filled with pills, but they gave her an extremely headache and annoyance.

"Why is it still a relief medicine? I want a detoxification medicine."

"Sorry Princess Guhari, from the moment you broke your trust with me that day, there is no pure trust between us."

When he first proposed cooperation, Qin Feng never thought of poisoning her. However, Guhali not only made a mistake, but also wanted to enter the hospital to murder Gu Shan and Ina while he was away. It was this incident that made him realize There must be a bond between mutual benefit.

Guhali became irritated when she thought of what happened before: "What do you still remember about sesame seeds and millet?"

Tan Feng smiled silently and got down to business: "The bottle contains half a year's antidote. Half a year is enough for you to plan your marriage. As far as I am concerned, it doesn't matter who you marry, so half a year is more than enough."

Guhari asked back: "Aren't you afraid that my father Khan will marry me to the prince, and the East Palace will become more powerful because of this?"

Tan Feng ridiculed: "It would be better to marry him. I can still have a good show."

"You are too worried. I don't want to discuss their affairs with you. The purpose of asking Lou Yuan to find you is not really to let you return to the royal court together, but to tell you that before Lou Yuan finds me, I have reached an agreement with Gooden."

Guden is another prince in the royal court and one of the strong contenders to succeed the Great Khan.

"When I return to the royal court, my father will definitely send someone to guard me strictly. The queen and Keduo will also keep an eye on my every move, so Guden will contact you when the time comes."

Qin Feng responded and couldn't help but asked curiously: "Before contacting Prince Gudeng, have you ever thought about cooperating with Lou Yuan?"

"Lou Yuan has long been in cahoots with Dong Gong Hang and cooperated with him. That means he has tacitly agreed to marry the prince of Han Yun Dynasty. I have said that I hate princes. If you marry a scheming person like Li Yingyu, sooner or later you will be drained of your use value."

Suddenly, Guhali looked a little cunning.

"Speaking of the East Palace, I heard one thing."

Tan Feng's eyes tightened: "What?"

"When Lou Yuan was talking to someone, what I overheard was that the merchant princess was pregnant!"

"how come?"

Tan Feng's eyebrows narrowed. He had only left the capital for less than half a month, so it was very strange that Lu Jingya was pregnant.

Guhali said with excitement: "Why not? The merchant girl has been hiding this matter. She was diagnosed with a happy pulse recently by the imperial doctor. I heard that the child is full term. I know what she is thinking. She is afraid that the prince will not let her If she gives birth, she will hide it and wait until her belly gets bigger and she won’t be able to abort her. When the time comes, she will be able to hold the power of the Eastern Palace based on her son’s worth.”

"She can only do this."

Tan Feng felt sad and ironic, but he also felt that Lu Jingya was asking for it.

If Li Yingyu can kill one of her children, he can kill the second one. What's more, now that she has no use value, if she can't save it, Li Yingyu will give her a bowl of poison and a piece of white silk to end her life.
