C2755 Princess Qi's Analysis
"Looks like we can't live here anymore. Let's go." Huang Feng looked at the corpse on the ground again and said to Princess Qi and Xiao Huan.2
Although these people were not killed by Huang Feng himself, they had committed suicide, but this matter was also related to Huang Feng. He believed that there would be people from the government coming soon. Although... Huang Feng was not afraid of the government. Even if those people wanted to arrest Huang Feng, it was impossible to capture him.
However, Huang Feng didn't want any trouble. What he wanted to do now was to do it. Yes. He wanted to bring Princess Qi and Xiao Huan back to the capital as soon as possible to find out the true cause of Princess Qi's death. During this process, he did not want to complicate things.
"En." Princess Qi nodded. Obviously, she also understood the current situation. It was true that she was the princess of the Great Lu Dynasty, but this identity was not always useful. Especially now, the Emperor had given the order. The officials had come to stop her from entering the pass. After knowing her identity, she might not be like the previous general. Let her go.
Thus, Huang Feng threw down some silver as compensation for the meal and the things he broke. Then, he took Princess Qi and Xiao Huan and left the inn.
It was not until Huang Feng and Princess Qi had gone far away that the inn's boss and waiter carefully walked out. After looking at the corpse on the ground, the innkeeper quickly asked the waiter to report to the official. As for the silver that Huang Feng threw down, the innkeeper naturally kept it without any hesitation.
To be honest, the boss did not hate Huang Feng in his heart. In fact, he even felt a little grateful. After all, he could see that... It wasn't Huang Feng who did it. Besides, when Huang Feng left... He had returned enough money, and even the remaining silver. It was enough to compensate him for all the losses he had suffered today. Even if Huang Feng didn't give him the money, he would just leave. He didn't dare to stand out and say anything. He had just witnessed how Huang Feng had forced these people to commit suicide. He didn't think that he was a match for Huang Feng.
Under such circumstances, Huang Feng could still take the initiative to pay. Furthermore, it was an extra amount of money. This naturally gave the boss a favorable impression. Of course, no matter how good the impression he had towards Huang Feng was, he still had to report this official. After all, he was a dead man. If he didn't report this official, he would be implicated as well. After reporting this official, the government would arrest Huang Feng, and Huang Feng wouldn't be able to escape safely. That wasn't something he needed to worry about.
On the other side, Huang Feng was already waiting for the officials to react. He took Princess Qi and Xiao Huan out of the city. But... At this time, the sky was about to turn dark. He wanted to rush to the inn in the next city. Obviously, it was unrealistic, so they were destined to spend the night in the wilderness.
Fortunately, when they were being chased halfway, Princess Qi and Xiao Huan had also lived in the wild before, although they were not very used to it. However, they could still live in it. And now... With Huang Feng by their side, there wouldn't be any problems.
As for Huang Feng, he had no problem living in the wild. He had experienced even worse environments, let alone now.
After the three of them stayed in the wild for a night, they continued their journey the next morning. However, because of what happened in the inn yesterday, the three of them became much more careful. They were afraid that they would encounter similar people on the way. More importantly... They still did not know who sent those people.
"I think they should be sent by Wu Yan." Along the way, Princess Qi told Huang Feng about her guesses.
"The only ones who will harm us now are Rebellion Force and Wu Yan. The Rebellion Army's main focus is on attacking the city. They won't put me, a princess who has been married for a long time, in their eyes. They won't attack you recklessly. If that's the case, they will offend the Yuan Feng Country. For the Rebellion Force who wanted to conquer the entire Great Lu Dynasty, it wouldn't do them any good." Princess Qi analyzed.
Huang Feng didn't say anything. Instead, he had a smile on his face. He quietly watched Princess Qi analyze the matter with a serious expression. He discovered that although Princess Qi grew up in the Imperial Palace, she was protected by Royal Brother. She was a little naive, but she was definitely not stupid. Her brain was still working very quickly.
"The remaining one is Wu Yan, who is the biggest suspect." Princess Qi did not notice Huang Feng's expression. She was still analyzing the matter seriously. "Everyone knows that the current Emperor is young and ignorant, and the power of the Imperial Court is in Wu Yan's hands. The order to not let me return to the Imperial Court must have been given by him. When I was still in the capital Imperial Palace, I was already at odds with Imperial Concubine Wu. He definitely knew that if I was still here... He definitely wouldn't agree to appoint the Eleventh Prince as the Emperor. Besides, because of Royal Brother's love for me, I still have some influence in the Imperial Court. If I object, the matter of the Eleventh Prince becoming the Emperor... It may not go so well."
Huang Feng nodded and continued to listen quietly.
"Besides, Royal Brother's death is very strange. The others may not dare to have any suspicions. However, I can. If Royal Brother doesn't die... Then, Wu Yan will definitely be dismissed from his post and investigated. Once Royal Brother dies, no one will punish him anymore. He was the one who profited the most. Therefore... He was very suspicious. He also knew about the relationship between Royal Brother and me. If I return to the Palace, I will definitely investigate this matter. So, he doesn't want me to return to the Imperial Palace. First, he decreed that I am not allowed to enter the Imperial Palace. After knowing that I have entered the pass, he sent people to assassinate me. They all wanted to stop me from returning, so, this matter... He's the most suspicious!" Princess Qi continued.
"Pak pak pak!" Huang Feng clapped with a smile on his face.
Hearing the clapping sound, the serious expression on Princess Qi's face instantly disappeared. In its place was a shy and embarrassed look. She was thinking in her heart that Huang Feng was much smarter than her. He would definitely be able to think of the things that he could think of. He was still analyzing a lot of things.
It was really too embarrassing.
"Don't be embarrassed. What you said makes sense." Huang Feng said.
"You must have thought of it too." Princess Qi said.
"I did think of something, but after hearing your words, I feel that he is even more suspicious." Huang Feng praised.
"Is that so?" Princess Qi did not believe it. She felt that Huang Feng was deliberately teasing her.
"Yes." Huang Feng said with certainty.
In fact, this was indeed Huang Feng comforting Princess Qi. After all, Princess Qi grew up in the Imperial Palace. She had never been to many places before. Therefore... It was normal for him to have little experience. Huang Feng, on the other hand, was different. He had encountered more things than Princess Qi, and all kinds of dirty things were not uncommon either. Therefore, he could naturally think of this.
However, it was obvious that he was unwilling to blow Princess Qi's confidence, which was why he said so.
