Warm medicine emits fragrance

The pursuers were killed, and Fubuki raised her hand and whistled. The next second, an eagle swooped down from the sky and landed on her shoulder.

She took the token out of her bosom and handed it to the eagle, then patted the eagle on the shoulder.

The eagle immediately picked up the token and flew into the sky.

Li Chenbi was sitting in Yan Qi's study, listening absentmindedly to Yan Qi's arrangements for the upcoming trip north.

He glanced at the sky outside the window. The weather was nice today, clear and sunny, but he felt empty inside.

"Sinking Wall".

At this time, Fan Liuer should not have reached the next town yet, but she should be able to arrive before tonight.

"Chen Bi, what are you looking at?"

If she's not in a hurry to travel, she should arrive in Xingzhou in ten days. By then, the battle in Ganzhou should be over, and he can take some time to go back.

"Li Chenbi!"

Yan Qi's stern rebuke pulled Li Chenbi back to reality, and he turned to look at Yan Qi.

Yan Qi got up and walked to his side, leaning out the window to look out. "I want to see what you're looking at. You didn't even hear me talking to you."

Li Chenbi said calmly, "I miss my wife."

Yan Qi: "..."

"You..." He turned to look at Li Chenbi, about to speak, when Li Chenbi's expression suddenly changed, and he stood up, staring intently at the sky outside.

Yan Qi followed his gaze again and saw an eagle circling in the sky, which had been empty just moments before.

Soon the eagle swooped down, flew into the window, and landed on Li Chenbi's shoulder.

Li Chenbi reached out and took the jade pendant from the eagle's beak, then immediately walked outside.

Yan Qi had never seen Li Chenbi look like this before. "Where are you going?"

"Get them." Li Chenbi's voice fell, and he had already disappeared from the house.

The eagle on his shoulder took flight, circled the room twice, then shot out the window and disappeared into the sky. Li Qiuping, who was waiting outside, saw Li Chenbi rush out and guessed what was wrong. He quickly followed, "Master, has something happened to Madam?"

"The hawk that blows snow has delivered a message."

Upon hearing this, Li Qiuping's expression turned serious. "I'll go prepare the horses right away."

"Yes."

Li Chenbi hurried to the prefect's mansion. A horse belonging to someone was parked at the gate. He mounted the horse and galloped towards the city gate.

Feng Ji drove the carriage at breakneck speed, causing the carriage to jolt and shake, spilling all the exquisite pastries and dried fruits that Li Chenbi had prepared onto the ground, leaving a mess.

Fan Liuer had to hold on tightly to the side of the carriage to keep her body from being thrown around.

The pursuit from behind did not stop, and Chuixue remained on the roof of the car, causing Fan Liuer's heart to clench tighter and tighter.

On the way here, the journey was slow so that Fan Liuer could sit comfortably. Now, they are speeding along, and in less than half an hour, they have covered more than half the distance.

Feng Ji's voice came from the outer door, "Madam, we have shaken off the people behind us. You don't need to worry. We will be able to enter the city soon."

These words reassured Fan Liuer somewhat.

She longed to see Li Chenbi as soon as she entered the city; only by seeing him could she feel at ease.

"How much longer..." she asked from outside.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Feng Ji's voice came from outside, "It's Master."

Upon hearing those two words, Fan Liuer disregarded the jolting of the carriage, released her grip on the carriage door, and rushed towards it.

The carriage slowed down at this moment, and she lost her balance and fell in front of the carriage door, crashing it open.

Startled by her commotion, Feng Ji, who was outside the door, immediately stopped the carriage and turned to look at her. "Madam, are you alright?"

Before he could reach out to help her up, Fan Liuer propped herself up on the carriage door, her mind and eyes fixed on the people riding towards her from afar.

Before the carriage had come to a complete stop, she lifted her skirt, jumped off, and ran towards the carriage.

This wasn't the first time she had been so eager to see Li Chenbi. Before, in the ancient tomb, when she was in a life-or-death crisis, she also longed to see Li Chenbi immediately.

But this time is different from that time. That time, she wanted Li Chenbi to come and save her.

This time, however, her thought was, "It's so good to see him again."

She was really scared just now, scared that she wouldn't be able to escape this time, scared that she would never see Li Chenbi again.

When Li Chenbi saw the carriage in the distance, he felt a little more at ease, but he couldn't be completely at ease until he saw Fan Liuer standing safely in front of him. That is, until he saw Fan Liuer jump off the carriage and run towards him.

Li Chenbi's heart skipped a beat, and an indescribable, overwhelming emotion welled up in his heart, making him both happy and bittersweet.

He spurred his whip again and sped off towards Fan Liuer.

Just as he was about to get close to Fan Liuer, he jumped off his horse, ran to Fan Liuer, and caught the person who rushed into his arms.

As soon as Fan Liuer fell into Li Chenbi's arms, the tears she had been holding back all morning burst forth. "Ugh... Li Chenbi, I thought I would never see you again."

Li Chenbi felt a pang of heartache at her crying. He hugged her tightly and soothed her with a choked voice, "No, I'm here now. How could I let anything happen to you?"

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, your husband is here."

Fan Liuer buried her face in Li Chenbi's arms, all her fear, worry, hesitation and dread were dispelled by the familiar scent of Li Chenbi.

At this moment, she cast aside all rationality and clarity; there was no safer place than in Li Chenbi's arms.

There is no more reliable choice than Li Chenbi.

She pressed her face even closer to Li Chenbi, wishing she could burrow into his chest and never be separated from him again.

She had never felt this way before. This emotion left her feeling lost and helpless, and she could only rely on instinct to convey her dependence to Li Chenbi.

The two people in the carriage in the distance looked at the figures who were tightly embracing each other and inseparable, and Fubuki's eyes were full of envy.

"I never imagined that someone as cold and ruthless as Lord Li would behave like this in front of his wife."

The people around her ignored her, so she turned to look at Feng Ji and asked, "Aren't you envious?"

Feng Ji shook his head.

Fubuki was curious. Was this person heartless? He wasn't moved by such a scene.

"You look at this scene and don't have a single thought in your mind?"

"have."

"What are you thinking about?"

"I miss my wife. I've been away from home for so many days, she must miss me a lot too," Feng Jicheng said honestly.

Fubuki: "..."

So, she's all alone.

She sat cross-legged on the carriage, resting her chin on her hand as she gazed at the two people in the distance. After a moment, she asked Feng Ji, "Did you choose your wife yourself, or was she arranged by Lord Li?"

"Tell me, since I completed this mission well, will Lord Li grant me a husband?"

Feng Ji finally turned his head to look at her, his face showing a complicated expression. "My wife and I are childhood sweethearts."

It's a bit of a shame that it snowed.

So it turns out I still have to find it myself. That's really difficult.
