Yan Fengqin poured a basin of warm water, carried it into the carriage himself, and shocked the jaws of the guards around him.

He thought of Zhu Yi's foot that had lost its shoe, and the dirty socks. There were so many gravels in the mountains, and Zhu Yi's feet might have suffered.

Yan Fengqin took off the girl's shoes and socks, and let the pair of small feet rest on his knees. He felt that these feet were exquisite and exquisite, as cute as human beings, but they were also really cold, so cold that they soaked people.

The man lifted Zhu Yi's foot a little higher, and seeing that the sole of her right foot was indeed covered with bruises, he thought that he would have to apply medicine to her later. I also felt that this little girl looked soft but was strong, her feet were like this, so she didn't say a word.

He really didn't understand the girl's mind, if it was Xie Ying who was in front of Zhu Yi, she would have cried out for pain, to win Xie Ying's pity and comfort.

At this time, someone said from outside the curtain of the carriage: "My lord."

Yan Fengqin said: "Say."

Fang Fang said: "Qi Dong came to report that the person who guarded the girl that day was Rong Xiao, the youngest son of the Duke Cheng's family."

Yan Fengqin narrowed his eyes slightly: "Rong Ting's younger brother?" The only people who can be protected by Duke Cheng's mansion, except for the boy's own sisters or women, will only be those in the palace. Yan Fengqin was already thinking about it.

He put Zhu Yi's feet in warm water, washed them and dried them, then put them back on his own legs.

Zhu Yi groaned softly in his sleep, and wanted to retract his feet, but Yan Fengqin held on. He saw the coral bead ring on her left ankle, the bright colors of snow white and vermilion, just looking at it like this made him feel hot and tight in his lower abdomen.

Yan Fengqin stretched out his fingers and gently fiddled with the coral, and saw that each coral bead was carved with the same pattern, and after a closer look at the patterns, his smiling expression gradually changed, and he found that the carved patterns were all a "Ying" The seal character of the character.

This is the first time I have seen such carvings. Ying... Yan Fengqin inexplicably came up with the name Zhu Yi called out when he was crying. It was difficult to distinguish at the time, but now that he thinks about it, it sounds like the pronunciation of the word "Xie Ying"... He suddenly raised his eyes and looked at the girl's face.

Is it a coincidence

Yan Fengqin immediately denied it, and he remembered Yan Yuer's words. If there is really a woman in the world who can change Xie Ying's decision, besides the one in front of him, he can hardly imagine that there are other colors that can surpass this beauty. Plus Rong Xiao... The identity of this little white rabbit is already clear.

He shouldn't have thought that she was at least the daughter of an official just because she was dressed in plain clothes and went to the night market to watch iron flowers with only one guard. It's rare to lose sight.

When Yan Fengqin looked at the coral ankle ring again, his face was completely gloomy. Jingzhou has a legacy of Xianbei, the concept of chastity is not important, and the marriage customs and etiquette are not strict, but Yan Fengqin knows that the mainland of the Central Plains is different, looking at a woman's feet is equivalent to looking at the most secret part of the other's body.

Since the little girl agreed to put something like Xie Ying on her feet, the two must have agreed to each other in private for life. It's just that I don't know how close it is, whether there is a breakthrough in the final...

The next morning, when Zhu Yi got out of the carriage, she noticed that the guards around her looked at her a little differently, as if they were more respectful than before? Zhu Yi didn't know it was because Yan Fengqin washed his feet with water last night.

She soon discovered that the way Yan Fengqin looked at her seemed to have changed from yesterday, but she didn't know if she was thinking too much.

After Zhu Yi finished washing up, Yan Fengqin said, "Come here for breakfast."

Zhu Yi sat across from him with a blank expression, and started to drink porridge without any hesitation, because the man had said to her on the first day: "What am I going to do to you, do you still need medicine? If you don't eat enough , you can’t even escape, can you?”

She put down the bowl after finishing the porridge, and asked the man again, "Where do you want to take me?"

Yan Fengqin glanced at her: "I said, you can go wherever I go."

Since Zhu Yi was threatened by him yesterday that he would be stripped of his clothes if he ran again, he really didn't dare to act lightly. She thought for a while, and then said rationally: "Young master, let me go. Based on your conditions, what kind of girl can't be found. I have someone in my heart. Would you like a girl who doesn't have you in her heart and only thinks about others?" woman?"

"Who is there?" Yan Fengqin lowered his face, his eyes were clouded. He asked playfully, "Do you just have a man in your heart, or have you dedicated your whole body to him?"

Zhu Yi's complexion suddenly changed, she didn't understand the meaning of the man's words, she quickly stood up and got into the carriage.

Turning around and seeing the man who was about to follow her into the carriage, Zhu Yi panicked, grabbed the empty cup on the small table and threw it at him: "Don't come in, get out!"

"..." At such a short distance, thanks to Yan Fengqin's vigilance and agility, he blocked it with his hand, so that Zhu Yi didn't make a hole in his forehead.

Yan Fengqin still got into the carriage steadily, he glanced at Zhu Yi up and down, and suddenly said pointedly: "It is said that Princess Xizhen has a gentle temperament, so you are still gentle?"

Zhu Yi never had a good face towards him, and he would always hit him with something. I don't know how many times he hit him, but he even slapped him. Was this done by a gentle woman

Zhu Yi was already astonished, and looked at the other party in disbelief. She has always been careful to hide her identity, how did this person know.

Yan Fengqin's smile made Zhu Yi feel glaring, she came back to her senses, stared at him and said, "Who would say courtesy to a robber?"

Being scolded as a robber, Yan Fengqin wasn't angry, but felt that Zhu Yi was staring at him with rolling eyes, which seemed to turn anger into anger, which made his bones crumble. He laughed and said, "Princess, don't stare at me like that, your eyes are not suitable for staring at men."

As soon as Zhu Yi heard the frivolous words, he wanted to get out of the carriage, but he restrained himself and looked at the other party sharply: "Who are you?"

The man didn't hide any more, he bowed in the carriage and said, "My minister, Jingzhou Yan Fengqin, sees Princess Xizhen."

Yan Fengqin... Prince Jinghai's son? Zhu Yi was dazed for a while. No wonder, such confidence is full. However, although the Jinghai Palace is powerful, at least it still respects the royal family on the surface, which is better than people with unknown backgrounds. Zhu Yi finally had a light in his heart, and said lightly: "Then the son will send me back to the capital. Yes, please keep your mouth shut about me going south with you."

Zhu Yi knew that if the story of her kidnapping was publicized, she would be the one who would be most affected.

Yan Fengqin smiled: "But I haven't planned to send the princess back to Beijing yet." The arrogance that the other party had restrained these days showed again inexplicably.

Zhu Yi was stunned, he actually knew her identity and still didn't let her go? She said: "Your Majesty can also be called a hero in this world, why bother to embarrass me, a little girl. Do you know that if you take me away like this, if people find out, what will happen to my reputation?"

Although Yan Fengqin didn't force her to have an intimate relationship, but they faced each other day and night, who would believe that she was innocent. Will Xie Ying believe it? Does Xie Ying really not mind? Zhu Yi didn't dare to think about it at all.

Yan Fengqin knew that Zhu Yi was worried about her reputation. But these days are about to change, the world is in chaos, many women want to change husbands and masters, and become dusty, who cares about who's reputation? What's more, he didn't mind her reputation at all, even if she was married before, he would be happy to marry her.

For him, the only troublesome thing for him to get Zhu Yi is not her princess status, but Xie Ying...

Yan Fengqin said: "Princess, don't worry, if you are outside, the emperor will take care of you when he finds out. And if someone who really admires you, wouldn't he mind your reputation."

Zhu Yi sneered, these words were really embarrassing, she said solemnly: "The feudal lord is not allowed to enter the capital unless he obeys the edict. If I guessed correctly, the prince entered the capital privately, right? I haven't heard of you entering the palace recently. I have made a pilgrimage to my father. If the son does not want my father to know that you have entered Beijing without permission, please send someone to send me back immediately, and don’t mention our affairs in the past few days. This is good for you and me.”

Yan Fengqin smiled, this little princess, knowing his identity, immediately threatened him. Didn't she just want to draw a line with him and pretend that she never knew him? According to the rules set by the Taizu of this dynasty, the vassal kings are indeed not allowed to enter the capital unless they obey the edict, but since many years ago, the three of them have actually entered the capital secretly many times. The emperor knows it well, but there is nothing he can do. .

"The princess is right... How about this, the princess gives me a little time and allows me to think about it, okay?" The man wanted to ease Zhu Yi's heart first.

Zhu Yi slightly raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, but didn't speak.

In the afternoon, just in front of the village, Yan Fengqin asked his subordinates to find several vacant houses to live in.

The aunt Yan Fengqin hired to serve Zhu Yi was a widow. She brought Zhu Yi bath water, and while she was running the water, she couldn't help but look back at Zhu Yi, and said, "Little lady, you are so handsome. I have never seen such a beautiful little lady at my age, she is a perfect match for your husband!" the aunt said with a smile.

Zhu Yi was slightly stunned, and finally said nothing. It was meaningless to refute Yan Fengqin not her husband to the aunt.

Zhu Yi didn't want the aunt to serve her, so she ordered her to go out. Although he hadn't bathed for a few days and felt very uncomfortable, Zhu Yi didn't dare to take off his clothes, and just sat at the table in a daze. Soon there was a knock on the door.

Zhu Yi opened the door, it was Yan Yu'er

Zhu Yi was slightly stunned: "Yu'er?" She turned her head and saw the guard lying on the ground outside the door, who must have been drugged.

Yan Yu'er said: "Sister Xizhen, I'm here to let you go. My brother and the others are discussing matters at the neighbor's house, so they won't notice you so quickly."

Zhu Yi was still puzzled: "Why is Yu'er here?"

Yan Yu'er said: "Sister, don't worry about why I'm here, let's go." As she spoke, she took Zhu Yi's hand and was about to lead her out of the room.

Zhu Yi paused and withdrew his hand calmly: "Why did Yu'er help me instead of helping your brother?" At least her life would be safe if she followed Yan Fengqin, did she follow Yan Yuer...

"Hey, it's not all because my brother didn't know her sister's identity before and did something wrong. With Xie Ying's concern for her sister, I'm afraid she already knows about her disappearance, and it won't take long for her to find her." Yan Yuer worried. : "My brother has a very violent temper, and Xie Ying is also arrogant. If Xie Ying sees you with my brother, he will definitely fight. If the two of them fight with their skills, they will definitely be injured. I don't want to see My brother is injured, so my sister must not want to see Xie Ying injured? That's why I want to let you go."
