Chapter 278
"I'm relieved to have you taking care of me. It's getting late, so I'm leaving."

Zhao Sanniang watched the carriage leave her sight, finally couldn't help it, took out the handkerchief and choked up.

"Dodo, where do you want to go?"

"Let's look for Lu Qingfeng while traveling in the mountains and rivers."

"it is good."

In the autumn of the 21st year of Tianhe, the political situation of the Yun Dynasty was in turmoil, and the conflict between King Feng and the prime minister became more and more intense. The two factions refused to give in to each other in terms of political views, which made neutral people very worried.

Later, an old lady in the palace came forward and said that the current prince is not the emperor's own son, but the result of an affair between the empress and her elder brother.

Although there is no definite evidence for the matter of the prince, but after being reminded by someone, everyone also found that the prince is indeed similar to the prime minister in many ways. Although the prime minister retorted angrily, it was of no avail. But it will grow bigger and bigger, and all the ministers who were originally in a wait-and-see state expressed their stand on the side of King Feng.

King Feng had an extraordinary appearance and inherited the bloodline of the Yun family. He was somewhat similar to Emperor Sheng Yuan. Naturally, there was no doubt about the bloodline. If the crown prince is not orthodox, then there is no doubt about who will be the emperor in the future.

The battle in the temple became more and more fierce. The Fengwang faction and the prime minister's faction seemed to be in a heated situation. The Xianwang Yuntianye and the Situ family even publicly stood up to support Fengwang. Soon after, the situation in the court was one-sided. Because of the prince's scandal, the Xiao family seemed to have fallen into isolation. Except for Xiao Guozhong's loyal disciples and students, close relatives, ministers who began to stand on the side of the Xiao family turned their backs one after another.

No matter how turbulent the court situation is, it seems to have no effect on the distant rivers and lakes, and everything is calm.

However, there have been rumors among the neighbors recently that it seems that the imperial court is looking for the legendary woman who can attract "hundred birds and phoenixes", summon "ancient beasts", and has extraordinary medical skills.

During the autumn hunt, this woman blatantly despised the imperial power and actually instigated King Feng to rebel. She was expelled from the capital by the current Holy Majesty, and would never be allowed to return to the capital.Feng Wang was also implicated because of this, he was banned for three days and his salary was reduced for one year.

It was rumored that this woman was pregnant with Liujia, and she was accompanied by the number one scholar who gave up her future for her. It was rumored that if anyone reported the clues to this woman, he would get a thousand taels of silver, and if he gave this woman to the official family without any damage, he would be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold.

Rumor has it that this woman is very confusing. Her mother is actually Rong Yu, the number one beauty in martial arts back then. She and Feng Wang had a deep love for each other, but they had no choice but to leave because of the persecution of the royal family and her mother.

Because of the curiosity about this woman, there was a trend of "hunting people" among the people. People everywhere in the street took the pregnant woman and questioned them. Some people came to report that they saw the woman in the portrait posted on the wall, but in the end they checked and checked, and none of them were true.

The current emperor once issued an order that this woman is not allowed to step into the imperial city again. Once she enters the imperial city, she will be shot or killed. Many people also watched them leave in person, but they don't understand why the two living adults gone?

The two seemed to disappear into this world overnight, and even the people sent by the imperial city to search for them found nothing.

"Old man, can you take us across the river?"

On the bank of the crystal clear Nanjiang River, a petite peasant woman stood on the bridge and waved to an old man fishing not far away with a smile on her face. Behind her stood a tall and tall middle-aged man who seemed to be going to When the relatives came back, both of them carried large and small bags, especially the middle-aged man with a beard, who carried a lot of gift boxes.

The old man who was collecting the fishing net in the middle of the river was taken aback for a moment, and looked at the two people on the trestle bridge strangely.

"Old man, I know you can hear me. You can just go and take us for a ride. It's almost dark today. If we hurry up, we won't be able to go back tonight."

Seeming to be in a hurry, the woman on the bank saw that the old man on the river did not respond, and her words were a little anxious.

It was indeed dusk in the sky, the sun had already set on the halfway up the mountain, the sky was full of sunset clouds, and it seemed that it would be dark soon.

After receiving the fish on the boat, the old man looked up and saw that the people on the ferry didn't seem to have any intention of leaving, he lowered his head, sighed, and went there with the boat.

The fishing boat approached the shore, and the man in rough cloth impatiently approached the boat and looked at the old man, saying: "Old man, can you help me and my father to the other side? We just came from the city to visit our relatives." Come back and hurry on your way."

The old man looked at the woman's protruding belly, and there was a flash of hesitation in his eyes, then he lowered his head and threw the fish in the net into the bamboo basket on the bank, "The mountain road on the other side is not easy to walk. It's not safe, you should go back by another way, I have to deliver fish to my wife, I don't have time to ferry you."

It seems that few people come to this ferry, the wooden boards on which it is built are very rotten, and there is a lot of moss growing around it.

The woman on the plank road was taken aback when she heard what Old Wen said, as if she was a little embarrassed by his obvious refusal, "Well, old man, my father and I haven't traveled far for more than ten years, and the aunts in our village said This is the shortest way home, just go over the big mountain. When we came, we took the bullock cart in the village, so we didn't feel tired. There are many people and we don't fear any bandits. The road is too far to walk back, it will take three days, and my father and I have asked the people on the road, they said that the mountain opposite is very safe, there are no bandits, you can give us a ride ".

"You guys..." The old man was about to raise his head and say something, but he seemed to see a glance behind the two of them, startled, then bowed his head and nodded, "Wait a minute, I'll take you there when I get the fish up."

"Let me help you, old man."

"Hey, no need, you big belly woman, why are you meddling with our men's affairs?" The old man refused her help impatiently, and put the fish baskets on the boat up one by one. After moving, she seemed a little annoyed, and after the move was over, she looked at the woman and said, "Old man, I just don't understand what you girls are thinking now, you don't feel at ease raising babies at home with such a big belly." If you want to come to visit your relatives, is this city so good? If something happens to you, your man will not die?"

"What the old man said is that I really shouldn't go out. It's just that my aunt turned [-] this year and insisted on me going. I couldn't get rid of it, so I went with him. But, thank you, old man, for your concern. You took good care of me on the way, so I should be fine."
