The Divine Doctor And A Common Farmer-Chapter 1675 - 1762: The Days Ahead Are Long

She put on a conflicted expression and said, "Can’t we wait a little longer? My Zhi Chen has already settled matters in the Capital, he must be on his way to Nanling now... I haven’t seen him for such a long time. Can we wait for him to arrive before we set off?"

The Great Commander was slightly taken aback, then clenched his fists and took a deep breath. "You’re right, I was thoughtless."

Dong Huiying went to support the Great Commander again, "Alright, alright, you don’t need to kneel anymore. I call you Auntie, you are an elder, how can an elder kneel to a junior? This really puts me in a difficult position!"

This time, Dong Huiying finally managed to help the Great Commander up. And after this incident, there were a few more people hoping that Liang Zhichen would arrive in Nanling soon.

This group led by the Great Commander was longing, hoping Liang Zhichen could arrive in Nanling quickly! Because only when Liang Zhichen reunited with Dong Huiying could they set off for the Empress’ hiding place.

At the same time.

The Eighth Princess was still in the dark, unaware that the current situation in the Capital had already changed drastically. She was still daydreaming about ascending the throne, with a single-minded desire to find the Queen’s whereabouts and obtain the Imperial Jade Seal.

However, Qinghe received a letter.

The contents of the letter deeply moved him, and he was greatly shocked.

Even though he had already doubted some days ago that the Eighth Princess was not reliable and regarded her as a discarded piece, he had hesitated because he wanted to observe the development of the situation a little longer.

Now that all matters in the Capital had settled, the Ninth Princess had taken power, and the Eighth Princess’s followers in the Capital had been completely wiped out. Even the ambitious Prime Minister had been eliminated by the Ninth Princess and Liang Zhichen working together.

Next, the inevitable was that this raging fire would reach the Eighth Princess.

And as the Official Husband of the Eighth Princess, Qinghe had long been marked by his association with her. If he continued to stay by her side, he would certainly be implicated by her.

Thus, he had to make a decision at this moment!!

Qinghe went to the candlestick and burned the letter. Gazing at the ashes of the burnt letter, he narrowed his eyes slightly.

Silently, thoughtfully, he pondered for a long time, then finally called Ah Lian over. "Let’s go, pack up, we’ll leave tonight!"

He opened the window, gazed in the direction where Dong Huiying and her family were residing. Slowly twisting the White Jade Ring on his hand, a flicker of uncertainty appeared in his eyes, just like a candle flickering in the wind at night. Bright for a moment, then dim...

He was silent for a long while before uttering a single phrase.

"The future is long..."

Qinghe left, departing silently.

It wasn’t until the next day when the sun was high in the sky that the Eighth Princess realized Qinghe was gone. Recalling their conflicts in recent days, her face turned deathly pale.

"He’s surely angry with me!" She thought it was her suspicion towards Qinghe that made him disheartened, leading to his departure.

Little did she know, Qinghe’s heart had never been with her from the beginning.

Being overly sentimental, the Eighth Princess grew melancholy, spending her days in a stupor, constantly calling Qinghe’s name. But the man had gone far away, unaware of everything here. Even if he knew, he would at most smile indifferently.

However, while the Eighth Princess was immersed in the sorrow of Qinghe’s departure, someone else smelled the scent of crisis. ——That person was Bai Xian!
