Chapter 173 - Felerol

Facing Wei Qing who was unmoved by oil and salt, Xiao Qingqian was truly very angry. Ye Zichen glared at her for a moment, then looked away.

After Wei Qing was bandaged, she took off her shoes.

The soles of her feet were already swollen. She frowned and was about to put her stockings back on when her face suddenly leaned forward as if it was a cloudy day and grabbed her tender white feet with her big palm.

She was in so much pain that she couldn't help but gasp. ”Are you trying to take revenge?”

Xiao Qingqian's face was expressionless as he brought the medicinal wine over and placed her feet on his lap.

Wei Qing was extremely nervous, she secretly felt that if Xiao Qingqian helped her to mix the medicinal wine, she would definitely die from the pain!

Seeing her struggling, Xiao Qingqian flung a blade at her, tensing up his back, and did not dare to move again.

Looking at Xiao Qingqian, he seemed to be wishing that he could break her ankle, but, the way he rubbed the medicinal wine was actually very gentle.

”Alright!”

Wei Qing replied ”Oh” and put on her stockings and shoes again.

The entire team was meticulously chosen by Xiao Qingqian, they moved extremely quickly and neatly, and quickly evacuated from the mountain road where there would be stones rolling down at any time.

As the sky darkened, the rain got heavier and heavier.

Chen Cheng picked the curtain of the carriage, ”Your Highness, the rain might get heavier and heavier tonight, so who knows how hard it will be to walk on this mountain road tomorrow?

Xiao Qingqian also had the same intention, he furrowed his eyebrows and said, ”Go quickly and come back quickly.”

Chen Cheng replied with a ”En”, then picked a few of the hidden guards to go with him to the nearby areas to check out the terrain.

Wei Qing's stomach rumbled loudly as she looked at her intently, ”There's something to eat.”

She didn't say anything.

As a foodie, Wei Qing actually felt a little embarrassed at this moment.

”My stomach is growling so much, why aren't I eating?” He put down the map in his hand and raised his eyes to look at her.

”Those people outside are still starving from the rain, how can I be embarrassed?”

”How can I be embarrassed?” he repeated, and suddenly laughed.

Wei Qing glared at him fiercely, ”What's so funny?”

It hadn't rained that heavily in the past few days, so they could find a cave to make soup. But now, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and these people could only eat cold dry food in the rain.

His gaze suddenly became deeper, he did not notice that Wei Qing was actually considerate of her subordinates.

”They're men, different from you. They don't need to feel any guilt!”

Wei Qing's mouth was wide opened.

At most, she would feel embarrassed. Where could she feel guilt?

He curled his lips, poured a cup of water, and drank it down.

Xiao Qingqian took out the box of snacks, ”Letting you accompany us is of great use. If you get hungry, it will only harm the common people.”

Wei Qing looked at him deeply for a while, then began to eat with his starting point.

The more it got into the night, the darker Wei Qing's eyelids became. She curled up on the carriage's soft ground and gradually breathed in and out.

Xiao Qingqian was still staring at the map. Because of the heavy rain, several roads could no longer be traversed, and if Chen Cheng and the others could not find the path, they would have to take the risk and walk on the mountain path before them.

When she raised her eyes, she inadvertently saw her sleeping soundly.

The corner of his mouth curled up slightly, and he silently looked at her for a long time.
