"Who is that short and fat guy riding on the horse?" Qin Haoran was still chewing the straw in his mouth impatiently.

The crowd gradually dispersed to both sides, and a group of officials riding on horses and dressed in gorgeous silk and satin appeared in everyone's sight.

The Crown Princess looked from afar and said calmly, "That's the Minister of Personnel, Lord Feng!"

"When the people suffered, instead of sending an official to handle the matter, they sent a minister of personnel. Why? Could it be that they want to execute all the officials who committed the crime on the spot?"

Qin Haoran has always had a filter for the officials of this great country, and he really couldn't help but want to complain.

Yangyang glanced at the Crown Princess's calm expression. She must have guessed that Her Highness Xuanyi would send this person.

It seems that the Feng family are truly loyal believers of His Highness Xuanyi!

Minister Feng didn't look like he was here to appease the people; it was obvious that he was just going through the motions to establish his authority.

Even when he got off the horse, he wished he had three or four people to help him, and when his feet touched the ground, he wished someone to lift him up with hands.

Qin Haoran sneered and said sarcastically, "Oh my! If you don't know, you would think she is a virgin from some family!"

Perhaps the sound was too loud, causing the people around to burst into laughter.

Everyone watched as Minister Feng dragged his fat body slowly off the horse as if he were watching a monkey show, and they murmured as they watched.

There were constant laughter and chattering.

"How dare you! You unruly people!"

The lackeys around Minister Feng were eager to protect their master. As soon as they helped Minister Feng off the horse, they started shouting anxiously.

Chang Saner couldn't stand it the most and was the first to stand up, "Damn it, who do you say is the troublemaker?"

The burly and overbearing appearance of the man really frightened Minister Feng, so he grabbed the guards around him and dragged them away, "Quick, protect me!"

Several guards immediately rushed forward and surrounded Minister Feng, and each of them drew their swords and pointed them at the people, looking ridiculous as if they were facing a powerful enemy.

“Master Feng, you are probably here in Tong County to perform, right?” Qin Haoran added, “And you are performing the role of the clown! Hahahaha!”

Chang Saner slapped his thigh, "Hahahaha! You know what, it really looks like him!" While laughing, he imitated Minister Feng's frightened expression.

This caused other people around to laugh even more unscrupulously.

"Hahahaha!"

"Hahahaha, grandma, is he really here to sing?", a little child asked in a low voice, pulling his grandmother's clothes.

"Little boy, stop talking!"

Seeing this, the lackey cleared his throat and said, "You unruly people, you unruly people, this is the Minister of Personnel of the court, Lord Feng, why don't you kneel down and bow down!"

"Kneel?" Chang Saner patted his chest and took two steps forward. "We can't even get enough food these days. If we kneel down to him, will that give us three more bowls of rice?"

"What do you want to do?" The lackey saw Chang San'er, who was tall and strong, hiding in the middle of the guards with Minister Feng, and shouted slowly, "Kneel down when I tell you to!"

"I won't kneel, why are you blaming me?" Chang Saner's eyes were as big as gongs, he rolled up his sleeves and wanted to rush forward.

The other side's guards were also eager to try, holding their knives.

Seeing this situation, the Crown Princess said from a distance, "Lord Feng, these are all suffering people. I am looking forward to the arrival of the Beijing Guards!"

When Minister Feng heard the voice, he pulled aside the heads of the guards to see through a gap, squinted his eyes and took a closer look, "Crown Princess? It's Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess!"

"Disperse from me!" Minister Feng waved away the guards, straightened his brocade clothes, and then walked towards the direction of the Crown Princess.

"How could the Crown Princess?" Minister Feng pretended to have just learned about it, but in fact, before he was sent here, Xuan Yi had instructed him that if he met the Crown Princess, he must find a way to bring her back or...

The Crown Princess smiled and looked at Minister Feng with sincerity, as if it was true. "Minister Feng, you are forgetful. Didn't His Majesty Xuanyi send me here to appease the people first?"

Minister Feng understood the reasoning and patted his forehead, "Oh! That's right, His Highness Xuanyi was worried that the Crown Princess might get hurt if she came alone, so she asked me to come here! Haha!"

The two of them chatted for a while, saying all the polite words in official circles!

Qin Haoran then realized that Yangyang had already disappeared into the crowd.

But it was also true that she was a wanted criminal of the imperial court. How could she appear so openly in front of an official sent by the imperial guards?

What Qin Haoran didn't know was that Yangyang didn't leave quietly on her own, but was taken away by Tang Yuwei.

"Where are you going? Where are we going?" Yangyang was pulled forward by Tang Yuwei, not knowing where to go.

"Jiang Chi is back, I'll ask him to send you to Mobei right now!"

"What?" Yangyang broke free from Tang Yuwei's hand and stood there waiting for Tang Yuwei's explanation.

Tang Yuwei had a complicated expression. "Jiang Chi led those who wanted to assassinate the Crown Princess into the dark and strangled them all. Now the Crown Princess is calm in front of the people, and the Beijing Guards have also come to confirm it. She is safe for now."

"But you are different. If Minister Feng's people knew that you were still in Tong County, it would be extremely dangerous! You must leave immediately."

There is another layer that Tang Yuwei did not say, which is what Qin Haoran said to him.

Although he has only detained Jiang Zhiang now, he will get some confirmation from him sooner or later.

"Yes," Yangyang understood that what Tang Yuwei said made sense, and going to Mobei was her original plan.

At that time, she was like an abandoned orphan, as if there was no place for her in this big world.

But now, she has a little hope again.

What love is is not that important to her. What is important is who she is.

She hated the feeling of being abandoned, the feeling of not being recognized and acknowledged.

She knew that this might be a little selfish, but she still had to say, "But I promised Qin Haoran that I would accompany him to Rong State!"

This is what Tang Yuwei was worried about. He was worried that Yangyang would say this.

But it's much better for her to say it out loud than not to say it or to say it later, Tang Yuwei smiled bitterly.

"Yangyang, is an identity so important to you?"

"Didn't we agree to go to Mobei together?"

Yangyang saw disappointment in Tang Yuwei's eyes, or maybe not.

She couldn't explain why she was so persistent in finding an identity. She was obviously a time traveler, so why was she so stubborn?

"General Tang, even if you go to Mobei, you still have your responsibilities. You can't just do nothing for me."

"And I also have things I want to do," Yangyang felt like she was trying to make excuses, not daring to look Tang Yuwei in the eye while she spoke, "I'm not saying I won't go to Mobei with you, I just want to go to Rong Country first..."

"Let's go to Rong State first?" Tang Yuwei repeated.

But he felt a lump in his throat as he thought about the next sentence: What if he went to Rong State and never came back?
