After temporarily entrusting the management of the restaurant to Li Dayer and Xiaoyu, Yang Ruoqing set off with Bai Laowu overnight and rushed to Licheng, a hundred miles away.

The two fast horses took a short rest at the inn halfway.

After feeding the horses fodder and water, they continued on their way.

Finally, we entered Licheng at noon the next day.

As the largest capital city in the south and the fiefdom of Prince Nan, Licheng is the most prosperous city that Yang Ruoqing has seen since traveling through time.

There are many restaurants and shops on both sides of the street.

There was a lot of traffic, a crowd of people, and hawking sounds in various accents.

There are all kinds of novel and strange small commodities, which are overwhelming.

If it were normal times, Yang Ruoqing would definitely get off her horse and take a good look at it.

But at this moment, I was exhausted and had something else on my mind, so I no longer had the mood to watch.

"Uncle Bai, let's find an inn to stay at first." She suggested.

Bai Laowu nodded.

The two of them immediately found an inn that could be called a chain in Daqi and asked for two guest rooms.

After a simple lunch, after returning to the house, Bai Laowu said to Yang Ruoqing: "I didn't sleep all night last night. Qing'er, you will stay in the inn to rest in the afternoon. Uncle Bai will go out to meet an old friend first."

Yang Ruoqing nodded.

I asked the innkeeper for a bucket of water and took a good bath.

After washing away the dust and fatigue all over my body, I changed into a clean and neat dress.

Her hair is like clouds, and she has two simple but cute buns on both sides of her head.

The remaining hair hangs down along the side of the ear and is braided into several thin braids.

She rarely wears flowers, so she took out a pair of blue camellias given to her by Luo Fengtang last time and decorated them on her two buns.

He bought this camellia from a businessman from the Western Regions.

It matched the ice blue cold silk dress she was wearing very well. Looking in the mirror, she looked at the girl in blue with fair complexion and delicate eyebrows.

Yang Ruoqing curled her lips and smiled.

Baili Xunhu, she can't make herself look sloppy.

We haven’t seen each other for a long time, and he wants him to see her beauty!

Even after packing everything, she couldn't sleep.

I sat alone in the house for a while, watching the sun outside the house gradually turn westward, but Uncle Bai hadn't come back yet.

She planned to walk around the streets outside, maybe she would meet Tang Yazi!

Nanwang Mansion.

Luo Fengtang was sitting under the window, holding a piece of wood as big as a radish in his hand, and was immersed in carving.

A sharp knife was used to carve it out, and the originally smooth wood was carved into clear features and edges.

He gently blew off the wood residue on it, and then traced it carefully.

The originally ordinary piece of wood slowly took shape under his hands.

It was actually the smile of a girl.

Delicate eyebrows and playful smile.

Looking at the familiar features and eyes that became clearer in his hand, the warmth in Luo Fengtang's eyes deepened little by little.

"Ah, General Luo has such a skillful hand. This wooden doll is so realistically carved!"

Behind him, a woman's surprised voice suddenly sounded.

Luo Fengtang turned around and saw Princess Bingqing standing there out of the open window.

When he turned around, her smiling gaze shifted from the puppet in his hand to his face.

Their eyes met, her eyes averted slightly, and two blushes appeared on her pretty face.

"It's just a small trick that made the princess laugh." He said calmly, without much change in expression on his face.

Bingqing smiled and walked in through the door of the house over there.

"I just saw that General Luo was concentrating on it, and Bingqing couldn't bear to disturb the general."

"I was really amazed by the general's excellent carving skills, so I couldn't help but make a sound."

"Bingqing...didn't I disturb you, General?"

She smiled shyly and asked cautiously.

Luo Fengtang shook his head lightly: "No, the princess is serious."

Bingqing nodded and his eyes fell on the puppet in his hand again.

"General Luo, Bingqing has always liked collecting these exquisite gadgets."

"Bingqing is bold and wants to ask General Luo to give me this puppet, okay?" Bingqing asked.

There was a trace of embarrassment on Luo Fengtang's face.

He lowered his eyes and glanced at the puppet in his hand, and then at Princess Bingqing who was in front of him with a pleading look on his face.

"Princess, I'm so sorry." He said aloud.

"I carved this puppet in the image of my fiancée."

"I'm not afraid of the Princess's jokes. I carved this puppet to comfort her when I miss her."

"If the princess wants puppets, I will carve dolls of kittens and puppies later and give them to the princess, as long as the princess doesn't dislike them."

His words were sincere and his attitude was sincere.

However, hearing this in Princess Bingqing's ears was like an awl pricking several bloody holes in her heart.

"In this case, Bingqing will no longer be loved by others."

She forced a smile and said, "But General Luo, please remember your promise. Bingqing is still waiting for the cat and dog dolls you present!"

Luo Fengtang nodded and said nothing.

It's not his style to carve dolls and give them to other women.

However, as long as we can keep this doll carved in Qing'er's likeness, let's make an exception!

Both of them stood awkwardly, and Luo Fengtang had no intention of asking Princess Bingqing to sit down.

He was thinking again, what excuse should he find to send the princess away?

This left a man and a woman alone in a house, and she even left the maid and mother-in-law outside the house.

It’s really inappropriate, it’s inappropriate!

Princess Bingqing was also secretly looking at Luo Fengtang, who was standing stiffly on the spot, keeping a long distance from her.

I just felt that this man was too arrogant and indifferent.

Even, I don't understand the style, and I don't care about the beauty.

However, when she saw the puppet carved in his hand, she had some doubts.

She couldn't understand this mysterious man.

But the more I don't understand, the more I want to explore him, conquer him, and make him bow down to me.

Just when the two of them were having their own thoughts, the maid outside the house suddenly came in, holding a gold-plated post in her hand.

"What is this?" Princess Bingqing asked the maid.

The maid said: "Master Kang just ordered someone to send it here."

"Mr. Kang is hosting a banquet tonight at the Yipin Qingfeng Pavilion in the city and invites General Luo to the banquet."

Yipin Qingfeng Pavilion?

Bingqing raised his eyebrows and asked the maid again: "Have you inquired? Who are the other invited guests at the banquet tonight?"

The maid picked up the names of several people at once.

These names were all unfamiliar to Luo Fengtang's ears, and he didn't recognize even half of them.

But after hearing this, Bingqing frowned slightly, looking unhappy.

She turned around and looked at Luo Fengtang, but saw that there was no sign of rejection on Luo Fengtang's face.

Bingqing said: "General Luo, please excuse Bingqing's advice. General, it would be better for you not to go to the banquet tonight!"

Luo Fengtang was surprised and looked at Bingqing.
