C512 peony wilting (2/2)

Now, the store that Hong Sanniang opened had been destroyed by their arrival, so on the way back, they didn't have anything! This knowledge instantly made Mu Ru Yue's entire heart hurt. At this moment, when the sun was shining on the ground, Mu Ru Yue felt as though she would be roasted alive if she were to lie on the ground.

There was not even water on them because of the previous fire. He didn't even want to talk anymore for fear of wasting his energy.

Ahead of them, Feng Qing's face was slightly pale, but he wasn't in a sorry state like Murong Yue. Amongst these people, Mu Ru Yue was currently the most embarrassed. Firstly, she was afraid of the heat, and secondly, he had consumed too much energy yesterday when he was underground. That was why he was in his current state.

Feng Qing looked at Mu Ru Yue and took the initiative to step down. ”I'll carry you on my back.”

”How can we do that!?” Your Highness, how can you carry someone else when you are a precious person? ”If this gets out, wouldn't it be …”

”There is no one here. No one will know.” Feng Qing coldly interrupted Tao Er's words. Peach looked at her unkindly, but her pupils shrank. In her heart, she hated Murong Yue even more. She gritted her teeth and said, ”Esteemed wangfei, this servant will carry you.”

Mu Ru Yue looked at Tao Er, a little surprised, only to see a reluctant expression on Tao Er's face. Therefore, he smiled, ”It's fine, I can still walk. We are almost out of Peony City now, and once we pass through these boundaries, we will be able to find an inn. Everyone else is just as tired. Carrying me on their backs would only make one more person tired. ”

Mu Ru Yue gestured for everyone to continue walking forward.

Feng Qing frowned as he saw the resolution in Mu Ru Yue's eyes. There was no way for him to refuse. Thus, Feng Qing could only continue walking in front. There was no need to carry Mu Ru Yue. Tao Er could finally heave a sigh of relief. Similarly, she just wanted to return to the capital as soon as possible so she wouldn't have to see Mu Ru Yue again!

When she returned, she would definitely be surrounded by all sorts of rumors and rumors. Those people wouldn't dare to attack His Highness, so Murong Yue would definitely be disgraced by everyone. When that time came, Murong Yue would truly be courting death.

Once she returned to the capital, she would no longer need to look at this annoying woman! Thinking about it this way, Tao Er's mood improved a bit. Even the hot weather was not as unbearable.

Along the way, everyone was infuriated.

In the evening, Mu Ru Yue was already in despair. Her gaze landed on the boundless public road before her as she inwardly cursed Qing Xun. If it weren't for the things that Peony City had done, they wouldn't have done such a thing!

”Royal Consort … ”Inn!” Just as Mu Ru Yue was cursing Qing Xun in her heart, she heard Yun'er's voice, filled with excitement.

When Mu Ru Yue heard that, she looked over and saw a run-down inn. This scene made Mu Ru Yue's eyes fill up with tears. She finally didn't need to die from thirst or starvation.

Yun'er's words naturally spread to everyone's ears. Among them, the one most excited was probably Bai Yu, who had remained silent. On the way, Bai Yu held onto the hand of Qinglin and didn't say anything. He simply wanted to merge into the shadows.

”Faster!” Bai Yu then picked up the Qilin and rushed back to the inn. That speed left Murong Yue and the others far behind. If they were to travel at such a speed, it was likely that they would reach the Royal Capital in two days. Almost as fast as the carriage.

Mu Ru Yue didn't bother with Bai Yu as she increased her speed and headed to the inn.

After a while, everyone had arrived at the inn.

The inn was two floors high, but its exterior was even more shabby than Jun Ruo's restaurant. Mu Ru Yue and the others hadn't walked this path when they arrived here, so they were a little shocked when they saw it.

To think that there was such a shabby restaurant.

However, the interior of the restaurant was cleanly cleaned up, letting people know with a single glance that they could stay there.

”Excuse me, is the boss here?” Mu Ru Yue asked.

”Manager?” Bai Yu also shouted.

However, there was no response. Mu Ru Yue felt that she couldn't stand anymore. She couldn't care about anything else, so she could only find a seat and wait for them to come out, half-dead. Very soon, they heard the sound of pawning from upstairs as a person walked down.

It was an old lady over the age of sixty. She walked down shakily with a cane in her hand.
