Chapter 55: Wild Vegetable Mash

Start from the beginning
                                    

Qingfeng said simply, "I forcibly tied her into the palace to become a concubine and imprisoned her father."

Bai Wutong suddenly looked at Qingfeng with a surprised expression.

Cui Lingyi was even willing to take out the last Life Spirit Pill to relieve Qingfeng's pain. She was simply a saint!

Bai Wutong asked again, "Then how did she escape?" If Qingfeng did not stop, it was impossible for Cui Lingyi to escape from her.

Qingfeng said, "Prime Minister Cui made a deal with the emperor. That day, Cui Lingyi was released from the palace intact."

"And why was Prime Minister Cui arrested?"

"He's the pig the emperor had long wanted to slaughter and the time has finally arrived."

Bai Wutong asked again, "Where is Prime Minister Cui now?" Prime Minister Cui should still be alive. Otherwise, Cui Lingyi would not be so good-tempered.

Qingfeng said, "On the way to the border."

Before Duke Chu established his own kingdom, Prime Minister's Cui fief was the border.

Bai Wutong guessed in surprise, "So, Prime Minister Cui is on the same path as us?"

Qingfeng nodded. "The Cui family is probably here to help the prisoners escape."

Bai Wutong came to a realization and suddenly waved the hairpin in her hand. She smiled and said, "Then Cui Lingyi really has a good temper. If it were me, I would definitely take the opportunity to beat you up."

Qingfeng looked at her, and a bone-chilling smile suddenly appeared on her ice-cold face. "She wouldn't dare. If I wasn't dead, I would definitely let her die without a burial place."

Bai Wutong said, "...Alright, you win."

The team walked for another two days before finally entering the territory of Jiangyuan City.

At the rate they were going, they would probably be able to see the walls of Jiangyuan City the next day afternoon.

It was almost dark that day. The team was about to find a place to spend the night when a young man's clear and bright voice suddenly came from ahead. "I've finally found you!"

Cui Muzhi's energetic voice was extremely unique. Bai Wutong immediately recognized him.

Soon, Cui Muzhi appeared in front of everyone on a snow-white Ferghana horse.

Bai Wutong's eyes lit up when she saw his shiny white horse. It was an ancient version of a luxury car. It was indeed extraordinary.

Cui Muzhi noticed her stunned gaze and said generously, "Madam, do you like it? Come with us to Qinghe. I can give you one."

It was not easy for Bai Wutong to bring so many people here. For the sake of a horse, she was going to turn around and head to Qinghe to accept the unreliable ruling of Duke Ping. She was not stupid.

Although Bai Wutong thought so, she said, "Alright, I'll go to Qinghe City another day and you can give me one." She couldn't say that she would never go there.

Cui Muzhi said readily, "Alright, I'll definitely take you to the most fun place in Qinghe and eat the most delicious food there."

Bai Wutong smiled before getting down to business. "Why are you here? Where's your sister?"

Cui Muzhi patted his head and remembered what the urgent matter was. He said to Bai Wutong, "The people from the Imperial Court are holding your portraits and intercepting the refugees at the pass. My sister has asked the team to settle down in front. She asked me to wait for you to inform you about this."

Bai Wutong's face darkened as she looked at Lin Yue. "Is there any other way to pass?"

It was definitely impossible for ordinary officials to capture them. They were just afraid that the top experts sent by Duke Ping would rush over after hearing the news.

Lin Yue frowned and said, "Yes, I'm afraid someone will also stop us."

Bai Wutong thought for a moment and said, "Let's settle down first and make plans later."

As the team walked forward, they saw Cui Lingyi's team of more than 100 people cooking.

When Bai Wutong and the others dismounted, Cui Muzhi went over with a bowl of wild vegetable soup and warmly invited Bai Wutong to eat.

Bai Wutong glanced at the green "soup" in his bowl, glanced at the few large pots of the same thing behind him, and tactfully refused. "No, I'm not hungry. You guys eat."

Cui Muzhi naively thought that Bai Wutong was afraid that they would not have enough to eat. He could not help but push a bowl of wild vegetable paste into her hand. He even said, "Madam Bai, don't stand on ceremony. We still have a few large pots there. Even if we don't eat them ourselves, we'll let you eat your fill." With that, he got someone to fill many bowls. Even Village Chief Zhao's hand was stuffed with a bowl of green soup.

Soon, the soup in their pot was completely insufficient for their own people.
