Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress-Chapter 1281 - 1287: Is That You, Young Master? (6)

"Just as I was saying," a red-beaked green parrot flew onto a tree branch in front of the royal study, chirping cheerfully, "Master, I am back!"

Cai Wei, upon seeing Brother Ying, gladly said, "You’re back! That’s great, were the dinosaur fossils unearthed?"

"They have been dug up, retrieved three skeletons, and are on their way here now!" Brother Ying fluffed his feathers and swiftly entered into Space.

...

Xiang Yun was riding in a horse carriage, traveling on the countryside path toward the Capital, while thinking about how to contact Cai Wei and miserably rubbing her stomach.

Oh, she was so hungry!

At that moment, Cui Wen suddenly exclaimed, "Young Madam, the young master’s carriage is following us!"

Upon hearing this, Xiang Yun pushed aside Cui Wen at the edge of the carriage curtain, stuck her head out to look, and indeed saw a horse carriage bearing the insignia of Duke Li Guo’s Mansion maintaining a steady distance behind them.

Cui Wen said, "Young Madam? What shall we do? Shall we stop and wait for the young master?"

"Wait for him?"

Xiang Yun let out a cold scoff, patted the carriage wall, and loudly told the coachman, "Hurry up, as fast as you can. If you can shake off the carriage behind us, this madam will reward you with five taels of silver!"

Five taels of silver was a significant sum for a coachman, who upon hearing this, was overjoyed. He cracked his whip on the horses’ hindquarters and shouted, "Giddy up—"

The horse, after receiving the whip, reared its head and neighed, then galloped forward.

The rough and bumpy countryside path jolted the carriage. The man with an unhealed bone injury surely couldn’t bear it. As Xiang Yun saw her own carriage pulling further away from Mo Zili’s, the corners of her mouth curled up in delight.

In the carriage behind, Mo Zili’s face was pale, pressing against his wound in agony, with beads of sweat falling from his forehead one by one. The little boy Cheng Cai, seeing this, said with concern, "Young Master, you are not well. We should go back."

Mo Zili hung his head, and after a long moment, said with effort, "No need..."

Desperately, Cheng Cai said, "But, Young Madam has already run out of sight..."

"Go—" Mo Zili cut him off, slowly raised his head, looked ahead, and said with difficulty, "I won’t... let her escape..."

For those five taels of silver, the coachman was giving his all, continually cracking the whip with "clap clap clap" sounds, as the horse carriage dashed down the road, soon arriving in the city.

After entering the city, Cai Wei instructed the coachman to slow down, since it was crowded, and it would be bad if the carriage ran into someone.

"Young Madam, we’ve shaken off the young master’s carriage!"

Cui Wen withdrew her head from the carriage curtain, happily telling Xiang Yun.

Leaning against the carriage wall, Xiang Yun closed her eyes wearily and said, "Don’t mention him to me, it’s upsetting."

Cui Wen stuck out her tongue at Cui Lu, not daring to speak carelessly anymore.

The carriage clip-clopped along, quiet inside, without knowing how much time had passed when a distinct and refined voice came into the carriage.

"Officer Li, take care, we’ll meet again—" ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

Like being struck by thunder, Xiang Yun suddenly opened her eyes wide.

This voice, that had been lingering in her ears for two days, she had thought about it even in her dreams, she couldn’t be mistaken.

"Stop the carriage—"

She called out and quickly pulled back the carriage curtain to look outside, where on the bustling street, a tall and handsome man had his back toward her, speaking with another older man.

Xiang Yun, overwhelmed with emotion, disregarded the astonished looks from the maids, and even without her hood, she ’swooshed’ down from the carriage, stepping closer and closer to that figure...

Nearing, drawing ever closer...

Xiang Yun smelled that familiar fragrance, her heart pounding wildly, and she carefully asked, "Young Master, is it you?"
