And the other side.
Just as Nan Muze expected, Yichen really led the people all the way at high speed, riding horses during the day and sleeping in the carriage at night, letting the coachman take him on the road.
After driving day and night for several days, they gradually approached the capital.
At this time, they were less than a day's journey from the capital.
As he approached the capital, Yichen finally relaxed a little. In the afternoon, he finally took a rest in a nearby small county.
The county town was not very big, and the streets were deserted. After getting off the horse, Yichen deliberately found a small restaurant and took Banxia and He Xi to find a corner to rest.
After driving for several days, the three of them looked very tired. They ate dry food along the way. It was rare to eat a hot meal. The three of them devoured it. It was not until they finished eating that He Xi spoke leisurely.
"Sir, don't the brothers around you come in and have something to eat together?"
He was referring to the subordinates Yichen brought with him. Yichen just glanced outside and said, "They are not stupid, they will find food by themselves."
Liu Shengsheng told him to take those people with him. On the surface, he was asked to take Banxia back, but in reality, he cooperated with him and secretly took her back to the capital.
Yichen basically didn't speak much. He only answered when they asked questions.
He then heard He Xi say, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince, shouldn't know that the Young Master wants to take us back, right?"
In fact, she had wanted to ask for a long time, but she was too embarrassed to ask along the way...
After all, it was because of the "love at first sight" thing. At that time, she thought she would never see this young man again in her life, so she spoke out her heartfelt words in a fit of enthusiasm.
Who would have thought that they would meet again soon, which really made her embarrassed for several days...
Before Yichen could speak, Banxia said expressionlessly: "If the prince knew, we wouldn't have been able to get here so easily."
Hearing this, He Xi sighed, "That's right. Not only the prince, but also all the other princes are particularly partial to Du Qianyi. If they knew that the two of us secretly went to the capital, there might be many people on the way. Assassinate us."
"Haha, if we can alert so many princes at the same time, the two of us can be considered very powerful."
Banxia's voice was cold.
After eating and drinking, Yichen walked out. After walking a few steps, he stopped and said, "You haven't washed up for several days. It's rare to stop to rest, so I asked the waiter to open a room for you and wash up. Let’s change our clothes and continue on our way.”
After saying that, he walked outside the door and told the soldiers at the door to go in and eat. Then he walked to the stable and fed the horses that had stopped to rest.
As soon as he went out, Ban Xia immediately said: "It seems that you are the only one who is embarrassed. Along the way, he seemed to be like a normal person. He probably forgot that you fell in love with him at first sight."
He Xi immediately covered her mouth, "Stop talking, it's so embarrassing."
Banxia reluctantly took her hand away, "If you don't feel shy when you say it, why would you be shy?"
He Xi's face was as red as a monkey's butt, and he whispered: "That's different. At that time, I thought I would never see him again. How could I have imagined that he would bring you back again when I turned around?"
Banxia managed a rare smile, "To be honest, I don't quite understand you. You tell me, you still have a lot of hatred hidden in your heart, but when you take revenge, you can fall in love with someone else at first sight..."
He Xi's face became redder and redder when he was told, "That's not what I am, I..."
She couldn't squeeze out a complete sentence for a long time, and then she said after a while: "You are still talking about me, aren't you yourself? I don't know who said that people named Du are not good people, but turned around and came back with his subordinates, and even persuaded I will go to the capital with you to overthrow Du Qianyi. You don’t even know if Liu Shengsheng really wants to help us, so you have to take me with you..."
Ban Xia's lips twitched, "You and I are in different situations."
"You're talking nonsense, what's the difference? At that time, you didn't believe me even if I told you everything. You had to go and die yourself before you believed me.
talk. "
After listening to her words, Banxia was also a little embarrassed.
It was quiet for a few seconds before a waiter came over respectfully.
"Girls, the hot water has been boiled. Can I take you upstairs to wash up?"
He Xi nodded and then followed Banxia up to the second floor.
Yichen seemed to have only given them one room, but it was also a very large guest room.
There were two large wooden barrels placed in the room. At this moment, the barrels were filled with warm water. After taking them to the guest room, the waiter bowed out respectfully and closed the door at the same time.
After all, he wanted to take a shower. After Banxia locked the window, he also locked the door, and then he followed He Xi and soaked in the bucket.
"Speaking of which, this young master is indeed a good man. He knew that we were girls from a brothel, but he still treated us like guests all the way. He was even so polite. He knew that our girls love to be clean, so he gave us a place to rest when he found it. It’s all arranged properly…”
After soaking in the water, Banxia said something meaningful, and then said:
"But speaking of it, maybe it's because his master is a woman. Because he often serves Liu Shengsheng, he is more experienced in taking care of women. I just don't know if this man will become a heartless man when he has a wife. Already."
He Xi soaked in the bucket next to him, "It's true that you feel that when you see a man, he is a heartless person. Those men are so pitiful."
Banxia gave her a roll of her eyes, "You are the one who is really pitiful, right? After being injured like this, you can still trust others easily. I don't know whether to call you stupid or pitiful."
He Xi curled his lips and did not reply.
I heard Ban Xia continue to say: "We have also saved a lot of silver coins during this period. We originally thought of using those silver coins to redeem our lives, but in the end, that young man was very stubborn and secretly took us away. Well, this brothel is missing an oiran, so there might be some trouble."
He Xi said calmly: "They can't make trouble. Although Liu Shengsheng is kind-hearted, she seems to be a ruthless character. If they dare to make trouble, Liu Shengsheng will definitely not let them go."
"You just met her once, and you're facing her like this?"
He Xi said seriously: "She is so beautiful, so gentle, and so smart. Don't you like her?"
Banxia gave her a roll of her eyes again, "You like others too easily. You fell in love with that man at first sight before, but now you also like that woman and I'm convinced."
He Xi curled his lips, "But I won't live long."
