The morning breeze blows, and the clothes are fluttering.
I saw the carriage gradually disappearing, and soon it was submerged in the morning mist.
"Master, come back, the young master and Miss Jiang have gone far." Xiang Song looked away and cupped his hands.
Xiao Jingzhao suppressed the nostalgia in his eyes and waved his hand, "Go to the military camp."
Three days later, when Nangong Zeyue rushed back, the west wing was already empty.
Looking at the empty west wing, Nangong Zeyue turned around and left.
"Mr. Nangong, Suisui's father is here." Aunt Su quickly called him.
"Sui Sui's father!"
"Him, didn't he already die in battle?"
Aunt Su saw Nangong Zeyue's expression of disbelief, and there was still a hint of disappointment in her eyes.
Aunt Su had no choice but to tell the whole story of the incident.
"This is too ridiculous. Even storytellers dare not tell stories like this."
I was kept by my master for a few more days, but when I came back, I had an extra one - the crown prince.
Aunt Su said, "Before Yue'er left, the prince sent someone to take the couple to his villa to stay for a few days."
"What does he mean?"
"Why don't you take Suisui's mother and son back to the Yannan Palace? Is he planning to let Miss Jiang be his concubine?
Facing Nangong Zeyue's series of questions, Aunt Su couldn't answer them.
After all, Yue'er left in such a hurry that she didn't even have time to ask her about her future plans.
Aunt Su was very pleased to learn that Shui Sheng was living a good life in Blackpool Valley.
Nangong Zeyue said goodbye to Aunt Su and walked to the street. He patted his forehead in frustration.
What a stupid person. I have met Prince Yannan, but I didn’t expect him to be Suisui’s father.
Now that he recalled that monster's face, he realized that he looked so much like that person.
Nangong Zeyue led the horse through the crowded streets. He looked up at the sky and counted the time silently in his heart.
Jiang Shuyue was riding in a carriage, and she couldn't run as fast as he could on his own.
If nothing unexpected happened, it would only take him five days to catch up with her.
…
On this day, Jiang Shuyue and her party left the Yannan territory.
There are fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road, and the fields on both sides of the official road are deserted.
The scorching sun was in the sky, the chirping of cicadas was deafening, and the leaves on the roadside were slightly curled.
Qiu Ju moved the ice basin in the carriage towards Suisui, shaking the fan in her hand.
On the small couch, with the slightest cool breeze, I slept soundly every year.
The corners of his lips occasionally raised, perhaps because he dreamed of playing with his father.
Jiang Shuyue glanced outside the window and lowered the curtain. She frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "Looking at this situation, there are many places suffering from severe drought."
"Miss, didn't you say that severe droughts are bound to lead to severe floods?"
"That's right, I don't know when the heavy rain will come." Jiang Shuyue said and took out the map from the secret compartment of the carriage.
Qiu Ju thought the young lady was looking for a shortcut to the capital.
At night, Gao Mu and Cangyun found a clean inn.
After dinner, Jiang Shuyue asked Qiu Ju to call Gao Mu and Cangyun over.
"Have you two been to the capital?" Jiang Shuyue asked directly.
Gao Mu and Cangyun both raised their hands and said, "My subordinate has been here before. Don't worry, young lady. I am very familiar with official ways."
"Recall, if the road encounters heavy rain or flash floods, which sections of the road are dangerous?"
"this……"
Gao Mu and Cangyun looked at each other, and Gao Mu said: "If there is a flash flood, landslides often occur in that section of Jiulianpo, and it will definitely be impossible to get through."
Jiang Shuyue searched on the map and found that it would take about five days to reach Jiulianpo.
"If there are signs of rain when we approach Jiulianpo, we will take a detour. Do you two know which other way can lead to the capital?" Jiang Shuyue said and handed the map to Gao Mu.
"The river is almost dry, and the capital city is upstream. It is impossible to take the water route. If we take another route, I am worried that bandits will appear and scare the young master."
"It's better to continue to Jiulianpo and change the route depending on the weather." Jiang Shuyue made a decision after weighing the pros and cons.
She can hide in space with her son. What if there are many bandits and Gao Mu and Cangyun cannot protect the three girls?
In the early morning of the fifth day, Jiang Shuyue looked at the sky, and there was not a single cloud in the vast sky.
At dusk, two carriages came to the official road at the foot of Jiulian Slope.
After riding in a carriage for nearly ten days, Sui Sui went from being in high spirits at the beginning to looking relaxed now.
"Mother, how long will it take until we get to the capital? Sui Sui's butt hurts." Sui Sui's little head rested on Jiang Shuyue's lap, her eyes listless, as if she was about to fall asleep in the next moment.
Hearing this, Qiu Ju quickly stretched out her hand and pinched his short legs, "The young master's legs are also sore, aren't they? A pinch will make it much better."
Jiang Shuyue caressed her son's face and said softly: "Gao Mu said that we can reach the capital in eight days. After passing this mountain forest, there is a small town about 20 miles further. We can rest there." ”
Jiang Shuyue simply told Suisui fairy tales.
"Who is this person? Get out of here!"
Suddenly, the horse's neighing sounded, and with a low roar from Gao Mu and Cangyun, the carriage jolted and stopped.
A burst of chaotic footsteps sounded.
Then a man shouted: "The people in the car left money and food, otherwise none of you will be able to pass through here today!"
Gao Mu snorted coldly and said angrily: "Come forward and get it if you have the ability."
Just listen to the sound of the sword being unsheathed.
Qiu Ju was shocked, "A robber?"
"Don't panic, I'll go out and take a look." Jiang Shuyue put on her veil and just opened the curtain when she saw Gao Mu holding his sword across his chest.
A group of people surrounded the carriage.
"Master, go in quickly, it's dangerous outside."
At this time, several men with fierce looks came forward to snatch the reins. Gao Mu flashed, screams sounded, and a man's palm flew out.
"Ouch!"
"What are you still doing? Come on, the boss's hand will be cut off!"
Seeing that his opponent was no ordinary businessman, the bandits held broadswords and stared at him, but no one rushed forward.
Jiang Shuyue looked back at the carriage behind her. Cangyun waved the long sword in her hand and protected the carriage tightly.
A bandit shouted: "Attack the carriage in front of you. There is a woman in it."
In an instant, the swords flashed and the swords collided with each other, making a crisp sound.
The long sword in Gao Mu's hand flew up and down, and with the sword energy, he swung violently at the besieging bandits.
Suddenly, screams came one after another.
Just as Gao Mu was blocking the front, bandits tried to attack from behind the carriage.
"Auntie, let me go, I'll give the bad guy something good."
"Master, get down quickly."
Suisui was not willing to wait obediently to be beaten, so he quickly pulled out his small satchel from under the couch.
At this moment, a hand reached out from the window.
Standing on the small couch, Suisui threw out a packet of medicinal powder with a strong force.
Almost at the same moment, Jiang Shuyue flipped her wrist and threw out a handful of medicinal powder.
"This bitch has poison in her hands. They have few people, so we have to fight them."
"Whoever captures that bitch will belong to him!" A seductive cry rang out.
The injured people in front retreated, and instantly, more people gathered behind them.
Jiang Shuyue threw out several handfuls of medicinal powder.
The people in front covered their mouths and noses, and the crowd from behind surged over again. Jiang Shuyue counted silently in her heart.
Just when someone fell to the ground, the sound of rapid horse hooves sounded from behind.
