The two reluctantly waved goodbye, and Du Wanchun got into the carriage and continued on his way.
After leaving Qingzhou Prefecture, they drove all the way at high speed, stopping only for one night at a passing inn. After three days, they arrived in Beidi.
Their folk customs are almost the same as those of Xuanyue Kingdom.
Seeing that everyone was tired, Du Wanchun stopped to rest in a small county outside the capital of Beidi.
What they were looking for this time was an inn.
Du Wanchun and Han Yaner sleep in the same room.
Wei Xun and other guards slept in a room, while the remaining boys guarded the carriage in the backyard.
Along the way, Han Yaner was worried about Zhou Feng, so she was always a little uneasy and couldn't eat any food. ?.?????.???
Du Wanchun went to the kitchen to cook meat porridge for her.
"Second brother and sister, come and have some porridge."
Han Yaner took it in her hand, lowered her head and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law, I really can't eat it."
Du Wanchun took out some pastries from his arms and put them on the table, and said: "Second brother and sister, I know you are worried about my second brother, but your health is also important. Don't let us take your second brother back and your body will collapse."
Han Yaner stared at the bowl in his hand in silence.
After she pondered for a moment, Xu didn't want to disappoint Du Wanchun's curiosity, so she picked up the spoon and started eating.
It's okay if you don't eat it. After taking a bite, Han Yan'er found that the porridge tasted pretty good.
My mouth was bitter at first, but now it feels sweet, and I even have some appetite.
She took the spoon and couldn't help but eat it one bite at a time. While eating, she asked: "Sister-in-law, what did you put in this porridge? Why is it so delicious?"
Du Wanchun smiled and replied: "It's nothing, I just put some wild vegetables brought from home."
Han Yan'er had never lived in the Zhou family's old house, so she didn't know what the wild vegetables Du Wanchun was talking about, but she thought they were delicious.
She had not eaten for a day or two, but now she ate three or four bowls of porridge.
After eating, I felt much better.
Du Wanchun stopped disturbing her, stood up, put the bowl away, turned and left the room.
When she came back from the kitchen of the inn, she saw someone making a noise in the room next door.
She probably heard some while walking on the road.
There was a woman in her twenties who looked like a married woman. She was wearing the clothes of an ordinary peasant woman.
I just heard her crying in the room: "Okay, that heartless man said that he would take me to Yangcheng when I got promoted, but now that I'm better, he cruelly sold me."
"You, don't cry. You can follow me. I will definitely treat you well."
The speaker was a middle-aged man with a big belly, and he was trying to do something to the woman with a lewd look on his face.
Du Wanchun didn't stay at the door longer, turned around and entered his room.
At this time, the woman suddenly shouted, "How dare you, if you dare to touch me here, I will go to Yangcheng to sue you, and the prince as well."
Du Wanchun's ears immediately stood up when he heard the word "Prince".
When the man saw that the woman was disobedient, he wanted to be violent.
Du Wanchun frowned slightly and looked up next door.
I saw the woman running out of the room, and the man chased her, "If you still want to run, let's see if I don't beat you to death today!"
The woman looked around and saw that the door to Du Wanchun's room was half open, so she rushed in quickly.
Han Yan'er, who was sleeping, saw the person coming and quickly took out her sword and asked her, "Who are you?"
When the woman saw Han Yan'er and Du Wanchun, she immediately knelt down in front of them and cried: "You two girls, please save me. My husband-in-law sold us to this evil slave in order to marry the prince's adopted daughter."
Han Yan'er was confused when she heard this, and she didn't realize what was going on.
The man chased after me, "Bitch! Come back here! Stop talking nonsense!"
He was about to step into the house, when a waiter happened to walk up.
The waiter's line of sight was blocked by the food in his hand. He took a careful step and bumped into the man.
The man's foot accidentally slipped and he fell towards the railing behind him.
There was a clang, the railing was broken, and he fell to the first floor.
"Yeah! Someone fell from the stairs!"
The guests below began to boo, and everyone surrounded the man.
The man fell to the ground and a large amount of blood flowed from the back of his head.
Du Wanchun and Han Yaner walked out to take a look, and saw that the shopkeeper sent someone to send the man to the doctor.
The two of them looked at each other, then turned around and entered the house, closing the door.
"Madam, is the prince you just spoke of the current emperor's younger brother, Prince Rong?"
The woman nodded quickly and said, "Yes, girl, it's her."
Du Wanchun and Han Yan'er looked at each other again. It seemed that they had saved the right person this time.
This Prince Rong was the one who sent someone to detain Zhou Feng.
The two of them gave the woman some food, and then slowly asked her for the details.
