Chapter 73 The Mysterious Man in Black (1)
Mei smiled at her: "Understood, little girl."

Sticking out her tongue mischievously at him, Su Xiaoyu walked out of the wing happily.Walking halfway, she suddenly remembered that she forgot to ask Fengtian Muchen what kind of drink he likes to drink, so she turned back again.Just as he was walking up the stairs, Yu Jian happened to come down.

"Huh? Yu Jian, why did you come down?" She asked in surprise.

"Master said he left something on the carriage and asked me to get it." Yu Jian replied.

"Oh, then you go first, I still have something to ask brother Muchen."

"Yeah." Yu Jian smiled at her and went downstairs.

Walking along the corridor, Su Xiaoyu stopped at the door of the wing where Fengtian Muchen was, and raised her hand to open the door.

"I have sent people to check the village you mentioned, and there is not a single family belonging to Xiao. What is the purpose of your approaching Xiao Yu'er?"

She didn't know whether her ears were too sensitive or the sound insulation of this wing was too poor, but she could clearly hear Fengtian Muchen's voice coming from inside.

He stretched out his hand in the air and then retracted it, because what he said puzzled her.

A charming chuckle came from inside: "His Royal Highness really cares about his god-sister. You are right, Xiao Yuer is not my wife, and I am not her husband-in-law. I lied to all of this." her."

My heart trembled suddenly!Su Xiaoyu froze in place in shock.

"Why did you lie to her?" Fengtian Muchen's voice was deep.

Mei chuckled again: "I don't need to answer this for you."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll tell her the truth about you deceiving her?"

"Little Yu'er now regards me as her husband-in-law, do you think she will believe what you say?"

"..."

Su Xiaoyu, who was standing outside the door, couldn't help feeling angry after being astonished, an anger of being deceived!
Pushing open the door angrily, she stepped into the wing. "But, I heard it all!"

The huge wing room is luxuriously furnished, and there is a rosewood round table in the center of the room.

Fengtian, Muchen sat opposite Mei.

"Little Yuer..." Fengtian Muchen was stunned, as if he didn't expect Su Xiaoyu to appear suddenly.

Mei, whose back was facing the door, trembled slightly when she heard Su Xiaoyu's voice!He stood up slowly and turned around.

Su Xiaoyu walked towards Mei step by step, stopped two steps away from him, looked straight at him, with anger shining in his eyes: "Why did you lie to me?"

There was a gleam in Mei's eyes, and after a long time, he said softly: "Because I like you and want to stay by your side all the time."

Is that why he lied to her?However, now that the lie has been exposed, what kind of identity will he stay by her side?And what reason could she keep him by her side?
Su Xiaoyu smiled wryly in her heart.Perhaps, she already knew that he was lying to her from the beginning, but she refused to admit it.Silently watching Mei standing on the stage announcing to everyone that she was leaving Yuncui Restaurant, Su Xiaoyu's heart was in a mess.Everyone asked him why he left?Beg him not to leave!He just smiled and replied: "I want to go back to my hometown." After speaking, he turned to look at her standing in the far corner.

Su Xiaoyu looked away dejectedly, avoiding his gaze.

Early the next morning, Mei got into the carriage and left under everyone's reluctance.A few days later, Fengtian Muchen and Yu Jian were also recalled to the palace by the emperor.

The restaurant is still operating normally, the business is still booming, and the employees are still working actively. There is only one person who is doing nothing all day long, not knowing what he should do.

That person is Su Xiaoyu.

Where is he now?doing what?Did you live well?Are you eating well?Are you well dressed?A person as smart as him should not embarrass himself!

"Master, master..."

Su Xiaoyu was thinking about something when she suddenly heard someone shouting in her ear.

Glancing over, she said angrily, "What's your name, don't you see that I'm thinking about something?"

"But master..." Li Yingchun said timidly, "You burnt the vegetables."

ah?She looked down and saw that the vegetables in the pot were burnt black.Because she was really bored, she ran to help in the kitchen.Unexpectedly, in a moment of distraction, the vegetables were fried.

Su Xiaoyu smiled awkwardly: "Hehe, I didn't pay attention for a while, I'll re-fire it again!"

"But master, this is already the tenth time you have burnt the vegetables." Li Yingchun said hesitantly, "I think you should go outside to relax, and leave it to the apprentice here."

Just like that, Su Xiaoyu was "driven" out of the kitchen by Li Yingchun.

With nothing to do, she had to go to inspect the restaurant.

At a table, two people are chatting.

"Hey, have you heard about it? Fenghuang Kingdom is going to war with Cang Yue Kingdom!" Guest A said to Guest B.

Su Xiaoyu, who just passed by, was shocked when she heard this: "What? Fenghuang Kingdom is going to fight Cangyue Kingdom?" How is it possible, isn't Brother Mu Chen going to marry Princess Yuqin of Cangyue Kingdom?How could the two countries be at war?She slapped the table anxiously, and asked the person who spoke just now: "Say it quickly! What's going on here?"

Guest A was taken aback by Su Xiaoyu, and replied tremblingly: "Listen... I heard that the current prince has regretted his marriage."

The prince regrets the marriage!Cang Yue Kingdom declares war on Fenghuang Kingdom!The prince invites himself to lead his troops to conquer!
In just a few days, so many things happened!

Although Su Xiaoyu wondered why Fengtian Muchen regretted his marriage, he was even more worried about his safety.

So early the next morning, she packed her luggage, handed over the restaurant to Li Yingchun to take care of, and then rented a carriage and set off to the battlefield where Cang Yue Kingdom and Fenghuang Kingdom fought.

After leaving Nancheng, the carriage drove forward all the way.According to the groom, it would take at least seven or eight days to reach from Nancheng to the place where Cang Yue Kingdom and Fenghuang Kingdom fought.

Seven or eight days!This must be too long!If it's not that she doesn't know the way to the battlefield, she doesn't have to sit in this rickety and slow carriage, and just run wildly there with light work.

The groom is a thin middle-aged man dressed in coarse linen.

On the way, he kindly asked Su Xiaoyu if he was not thirsty, and if he wanted to drink tea in the tea shed in front.

Su Xiaoyu opened the curtains and took a look, and saw that there was really a stall not far ahead, with a piece of white cloth hanging above a bamboo pole, and a big "tea" character on the cloth fluttering in the wind.

After sitting in the carriage for a long time, she was so tired that her back ached and she wanted to find a place to rest, so she nodded and agreed.

I drank a cup of tea under the tea shed, rested for a while, and set off again in the carriage.

Sitting in the bumpy carriage, Su Xiaoyu felt bored, so she just lay down and slept.Not long after he lay down, he suddenly felt that the curtain in front of the carriage had been lifted and quickly lowered.She didn't care, thinking it was blown away by the wind, and continued to sleep with her eyes closed.
