Feng Xingying first threatened and then suddenly made a request. The palace guards are also human beings, so they naturally understand the importance and responded to her immediately:
"We are only ordered to take Mr. Ye and Miss Xiaonian back. The others are not part of the order. You can do as you please."
"Then I'll help you all." Feng Xingying winked at Luo Lie and Ye Jingning.
"Okay!" Luo Lie nodded.
Wang Dali has a simple and loyal character: "Since I sold myself to you, of course I have to protect your safety. I will go wherever you go."
"Okay." Feng Xingying didn't have time to explain to him.
Hou Jiao was not to be outdone: "I, Hou Jiao, am not an unloyal person. I want to protect my sister Xiaonian."
"Forget it, help me find medicinal materials." Feng Xingying rejected his request.
"What medicinal materials?"
"Shut up!" Luo Shang rolled her eyes at him.
This Hou Jiao is sometimes very smart, and sometimes he is suddenly stupid. There is really nothing that can be done against him.
Feng Xingying wanted them to go out of the city to find a way to find some medicinal materials.
In other words, the medicinal materials Mr. Ye mentioned are the solution, and maybe Ye Jingning will have some clues.
It was unusual for Mr. Ye to leave in such a hurry before. Now seeing the tough attitude of these guards, it is definitely not a good thing.
No matter what, some people have to go out of the city to find a way, and they can't all be trapped and die in the city.
Fortunately, the guards followed the rules and were really afraid that Feng Xingying would use poison, so they didn't care about anything else. They only took Feng Xingying and Ye Xiaonian back and let the others go.
Ye Xiaonian was not stupid. Halfway through, he asked Feng Xingying: "Brother, did I say the wrong thing today?"
Feng Xingying nodded and threw a piece of candy to Ye Xiaonian: "Eat this."
"What is this?" Ye Xiaonian peeled off the candy and stuffed it into his mouth without waiting for Feng Xingying to answer. Anyway, the snacks from the chef are always delicious and special.
But after eating the candy, Ye Xiaonian discovered a problem. She couldn't speak.
"Next, you can always make fewer mistakes by saying less. I feel sorry for you." Feng Xingying patted Ye Xiaonian on the shoulder.
Ye Xiaonian shook his head, his eyes firm, meaning that he didn't blame Feng Xingying.
Feng Xingying liked Ye Xiaonian the most, maybe because of her trust. Even if she was poisoned by Feng Xingying, she would still choose to trust Feng Xingying in her heart.
When they arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, the guards sent them to a wing to rest, which was actually house arrest.
Feng Xingying acted very calmly. He made two cups of tea, took some dried meat snacks, and ate them with Ye Xiaonian. It really felt like he was home.
Before even finishing a cup of tea, the city lord came over in person with several disciples from Lingshu Medical Island.
"Guys, do you want some tea?" Feng Xingying took the initiative.
"Huh, you're a prisoner now, and you still feel arrogant!" Lan Yu was furious with Feng Xingying, and now she wanted to whip out a whip and beat the beautiful boy in front of her.
"Prisoner? Me? Why? My sister has won three famous medical conferences. Didn't the city lord invite us back?" Feng Xingying said with a smile.
"Don't be so shameless. You think you are really invited to come back. How long do you want to keep pretending that you have stolen something from our Lingshu Medical Island?" Lan Yu couldn't hold back her anger and became extremely excited when she saw Feng Xingying.
The leader this time was still the senior sister Ye Minglan who visited the alchemy last time. She was quite calm and she scolded Lan Yu:
"How is it appropriate to make a noise? We just asked Mr. Ye to ask a few questions, but we did not find him guilty."
