The Rebirth of the Deposed Empress

Because Hua Wu Ke wanted to return to the capital as soon as possible to find out the news about Huo Lian, the two of them rode fast horses all the way back from Anyang City. Ye Buhuo was afraid that Hua Wu Ke's body could not handle it, so he wanted Hua Wu Ke to change to a carriage several times.

But no matter how Ye Buhuo persuaded him, Hua Wuke insisted on riding a horse.

After riding for dozens of days, the two men were far away from the border and were very close to the capital.

Seeing that it was almost night, the group happened to pass by a small town and decided to go into the town to rest for a night.

There were only two inns in the town, and Ye Buhuo walked into the one that was cleaner and brighter without hesitation.

There were not many outside guests in the town, and there were only a few tables on the first floor where people were having dinner.

The shopkeeper rested his left hand on the counter, and occasionally moved his right hand on the abacus.

Hearing the noise of Hua Wu Ke and others entering the room, he casually raised his head and took a look.

Although the styles of their clothes were low-key, it was obvious that the materials were not what ordinary people would use.

In addition to the man and woman walking in front who have extraordinary aura, the people following behind them should not be underestimated either.

After taking a look at this, the shopkeeper quickly changed his casual attitude at the beginning.

It's obvious which young master or young lady is going out for a trip with their servants. We can't neglect them, as this month's revenue depends on them!

The shopkeeper put down the abacus in his hand, held up the hem of his long gown with one hand, and walked over with a smile on his face.

"Dear guests, do you want to stay overnight or stay in the hotel?"

Ye Yi answered the shopkeeper: "I need three upper rooms, and prepare three of your specialty dishes and send them to the rooms."

The first thing they did was to have three upper rooms. The shopkeeper laughed even more happily after hearing this.

He quickly called the waiter in the store to take the group upstairs, and the shopkeeper personally escorted them to the stairs.

Hua Wu Ke and Ye Bu Huo's rooms are next to each other. As for the rest of Ye Bu Huo's followers, they are all in the room near the stairs so that they can respond in time if they hear any movement.

The waiter had just led Hua Wu Ke to the door and was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Hua Wu Ke.

"Please bring some hot water."

They had been sleeping in the open air for the past few days on the road. Now that they had finally managed to stay in an inn, Hua Wu Ke just wanted to take a good hot bath.

The waiter worked quickly and soon a large bucket of hot water was ready in the room.

As soon as Hua Wu Ke entered the hot water, she felt a slight pain at the base of her legs, but the hot water was so comfortable that she quickly forgot about the slight pain.

Qingzhu helped her wash up comfortably, and then she changed into dry underwear.

Just as he was about to lie down on the bed for a while, Hua Wu Ke had not taken a few steps when he realized that the base of his legs was really painful, especially when they were rubbed by his pants from time to time, which made him feel a little hot.

Hua Wu Ke probably knew that this was because he had been riding horses for days and had some injuries.

This was not the time to be pampered. Hua Wu Ke said nothing. He just wanted to lie down on the bed and have a good night's rest. Maybe he would recover tomorrow.

But because of the abrasions, Hua Wu Ke walked very cautiously.

So even if she didn't say anything, Qingzhu could tell at a glance that Hua Wu Ke was a little hurt.

She silently searched through the package she brought with her, but couldn't find any medicine.

She had no choice but to knock on the doors of Ye Buhuo and Ye Yi's rooms next door.

Qingzhu knocked only twice before Yeyi opened the door.

"What's the matter?"

"Did you bring the medicine for wounds? Miss is feeling unwell."

Ye Buhuo heard Qingzhu's words. Before Ye Yi could answer Qingzhu, Ye Buhuo had already walked over.

"Is the injury serious?"

Qingzhu answered truthfully:

"I don't know. The lady didn't say anything. I guessed because I saw that she had trouble walking."

It's easy to imagine that Hua Wu Ke was trying to be brave just to hurry on his way.

Ye Buhuo frowned and even ignored his body.

It was inconvenient for him to check the wound, and Ye Buhuo was angry but helpless, so he gave the medicine to Qingzhu.

"Take good care of her."

After Qingzhu left, Ye Buhuo gave Ye Yi a few instructions, and then Ye Yi went back to the small building.

After dinner, Hua Wu Ke had a good sleep. When he woke up the next day, he felt that he had recovered most of his energy.

She got off the bed and felt it carefully. The abrasion was much lighter than last night.

With this medicine, the journey ahead won't be too difficult.

She encouraged herself in her heart.

After packing up, Hua Wu Ke opened the door and saw Ye Buhuo waiting for her there.

"You've been waiting here for a long time? Why didn't you knock on the door and call me?"

After enduring the hardships and sleeping in the open air along the way, she finally got a good night's rest. How could Ye Buhuo bear to rush her?

"I just happened to be out, so there's no rush."

After that, the group went downstairs to have breakfast.

The inn in the small town is not that fancy, and the breakfast is just ordinary steamed buns and porridge.

The soft and sticky rice porridge paired with the hot buns made Hua Wu Ke narrow his eyes in satisfaction.

Hua Wu Ke was just taking a big bite of the bun when the waiter came over.

He walked to Ye Yi's side, bent down and said:

"Sir, the carriage you requested is already waiting outside the inn."

Ye Yi took out some silver from his waist and gave it to him. The waiter thanked him repeatedly and left.

Hua Wu Ke chewed the bun quickly, then swallowed it in his mouth anxiously.

"Why do you need to hire a carriage?"

Seeing that Hua Wu Ke was eating voraciously just now, Ye Buhuo scooped some porridge and put it next to her so that she could eat it.

Then he said expressionlessly:

"I am hurt from riding my horse, and cannot ride in a carriage."

Hua Wu Ke happened to have taken a sip of porridge when she heard Ye Buhuo say this. She was not choked by the bun, but almost choked by the porridge.

It seems that when Qingzhu went to get medicine yesterday, Ye Buhuo knew that he was injured.

Looking at Ye Buhuo's expressionless face at the moment, Hua Wuke silently complained, this expression is quite intimidating...

He knew in his heart that he said that because he was worried about him. Looking at that cold and hard face, Hua Wu Ke felt inexplicably soft in his heart.

Not wanting Ye Buhuo to get angry because he was rushing on the journey regardless of his health, Hua Wu Ke picked up a bun and put it in Ye Buhuo's bowl.

When he looked at me, she smiled obediently with her eyes curved, with the words "trying to please" clearly written on her face.

Ye Buhuo glanced at her, then lowered his eyelids as if nothing had happened and picked up the bun in the bowl.

Although he appeared indifferent on the surface, he was both angry and amused in his heart.

Using a bun to coax people is really...

He put the bun to his mouth and took a bite, then looked at her again. This time, there was more helplessness and doting in his eyes than before.

As for the rest of Ye Yi Qing Zhu and the others...

They had already seen that His Royal Highness Prince An did not have any dignity of a prince in front of the future princess, so they were no longer surprised and just focused on having breakfast.
