Chapter 2172: Switch Back

Jun Linyuan nodded.

Feng Wu asked, “And His Majesty just let their power grow?”

Jun Linyuan said, “Old habits die hard.”

Feng Wu knew that when Jun Linyuan became the emperor, things would change for the big families.

Jun Linyuan said, “You’ll have time to find out more about that. We’re about to reach One Line Cliff. It’s a dangerous spot because there are mountains on both sides, and the ravine is only wide enough for a single carriage to go through. If someone stands on top of the mountains and throws big rocks down at us, it’ll be very dangerous.”

The look on Feng Wu’s face turned serious.

Jun Linyuan said, “I think someone is going to take the bait.”

Hearing that they would be expecting a battle, Feng Wu clenched her fists.

Seeing this, Jun Linyuan smiled. “What? Are you scared?”

Feng Wu rolled her eyes at him. “Of course I am. If an assassination is really going to happen, I’m the one they’re going to attack. I can’t fight like you, and they’ll kill me!”

Jun Linyuan studied her face. Suddenly, he pulled her to his side and whispered, “If we hadn’t swapped bodies, would you have stayed by my side?”

Thinking of the ninth trial, Feng Wu immediately said, “Yes, I would.”

“Good.”

Jun Linyuan leaned closer and kissed her gently on the mouth.

Feng Wu’s head spun. Then —

Wait!

She looked down at her hands and saw that they were fair and soft. They were her own hands!

Wow!

She immediately took out her mirror.

The face she saw in the mirror was that of a pretty girl.

Feng Wu was thrilled. She was herself again!

She didn’t know how to describe her excitement.

Roar —

She wanted to run out of the carriage to celebrate her “recovery.”

But she couldn’t.

She was still on the ninth trial.

She had to stay within ten steps of Jun Linyuan.

No one knew how much she had to endure because of that.

But today was her lucky day.

Ding —

The fairy said, “The ninth trial is over.”

Wow!

Feng Wu was over the moon.

Ahhh —

Hearing that, Feng Wu ran out of the carriage, jumped onto Feng Xun’s horse, and dashed off.

The wind chilled her to the bone, but she still opened her arms in excitement.

This was what freedom felt like.

Without the ninth trial, Feng Wu felt that the sky was her limit.

She had never been an extrovert, but being forced to stay close to Jun Linyuan was still more than she could take.

This entire time, she didn’t have time to go back to her own tent, and had no idea how Chaoge and Qiuling were doing.

Because Jun Linyuan was the crown prince, his carriage was at the front.

Feng Wu’s carriage was near the back of the convoy.

She wanted to see Chaoge now, but the road was too narrow for her to go through. In the end, she had to get off the horse and go back to Jun Linyuan’s carriage.
