Wang Yuanhan, the lonely country, and Chanyuan County, the lord of Chanyuan, packed up and set off for Ci'an Temple, the first temple in the world located in the northeast of Hengguo.
Helian Jialu, the lord of Helian County, went out of the palace with the two princes of Hengguo, Yunan and Yushi, eating snacks and watching acrobatic performances. In addition, due to the loss of Helian Jialu to Yushi in the pot throwing competition the day before, several people had to take a turn in the book market.

The third day of the first lunar month -
At noon, Yuan Han and Chan'er entered Weicheng and were about to find a restaurant to rest, when Jing Hu and others found that there were many people lined up in front of a tavern not far in front of them.
"There's a tavern in this little town that's so popular, so let's go and sit down here. Yuan Han listened to the instructions of the well guard, and commanded everyone.
Luo Dong and Huang Feng drove the carriage to the front of the tavern, and Yuan Han and Chan'er got out of the carriage and climbed a few steps to approach the door of the tavern. At this time, a junior came up and asked:
"How many of you are going to eat at a small restaurant...... Or do you also come to see the medical girl?"
"Doctor girl?" Chan'er repeated a little dazedly.
"We were passing through here just to fill our stomachs, and we didn't think there was a local celebrity here. Yuan Han smiled and said.
"A few people don't know, it's true that the doctor girl is from Hengguo, but she is not a native of our Weicheng. The whereabouts of the medical girl are uncertain, but she does not forget to help the poor people who are infected everywhere she goes, and she is the female bodhisattva in the hearts of the people. Some of these people lined up today are locals who are sick and have no money for treatment, and some of them have come from neighboring cities and counties to see the medical girl. Xiao Er's eyes were full of admiration, and he came back to his senses and said, "Yo, look, I said that since you are here to eat, you don't have to queue up, please come in." β
Xiao Er led Yuan Han and a dozen people into the tavern. After entering the tavern, a few people found that unlike the crowded scene outside the tavern, the tavern was just quiet.
At the middle table, there was a woman in white who was about the same age as Chan'er, who should be the legendary medical girl. At this moment, the medical lady was calling for an old woman sitting beside her. On the right side of the medical girl, that is, opposite the old woman, there was also a man in black, who was three or two years older than Yuan Han.
In addition, there were only a dozen people left who kept an orderly line despite the long queue outside the door, the shopkeeper at the counter, Xiao Er and Yuan Han who walked in with Yuan Han and his party.
Everyone looked at the simple furnishings and idle tables and chairs in the tavern, and suddenly realized that except for their own business, the rest of the people were here for the medical girl, and suddenly they were even more curious and inquisitive about the medical girl.
Yuan Han motioned for a few people to slow down and sit down at the tables and chairs at the edge of the tavern, so as not to disturb the medical lady to diagnose and treat the patient.
In about half an hour, the medical girl had already treated six patients, and when the sixth patient left, the man in black spoke:
"Little Er, the girl needs to rest for a while after seeing ten patients. You go and ask the kitchen master to boil a few pots of porridge and distribute them to the people outside, and as for the accounts, ......"
"Just write it to us. The original culvert said.
"Thank you to this son, but he has never lived a life, how can he bother the son to pay the bills. The man in black said lightly.
"The doctor girl and brother Tai can volunteer to treat people outside the door, can't we do something for them?" Yuan Han said sincerely.
"Yes, we are of the same mind as you, so don't shirk. Chan'er also said.
Both of us said that, and we had no choice but to be disrespectful. It is an honor to meet a few girls. The man in black and the medical girl looked at each other and said.
"I don't know what Brother Tai is called?" Yuan Han nodded and asked.
"Under ......"
"Big brother. The medical girl suddenly spoke up and interrupted the man in black.
"Alas......" the man in black sighed before he spoke again, "I hope you will forgive me, the girl and I were hunted down by the enemy, so it is inconvenient to disclose my name." β
"I see, no wonder the whereabouts of the medical girl are erratic......" Chan'er paused, and then added, "Even in this case, the girl still does not shy away from good deeds, and we deeply admire it." β
"There's a reluctant invitation below, I don't know how many ......," the man in black wanted to say but stopped.
"If there's anything we can do to help, you're welcome, but it's okay. Yuan Han said.
"We have always been careful to conceal our whereabouts, so that the enemy has never met with the girl, but they have only followed the descriptions they have heard, looking around for a man and a woman of our age who are walking together. Therefore, when I saw a lot of men and women in Childe's party, I couldn't help but have an idea......"
"Brother Tai wants our people to spread out according to the combination of you and the girl, and attract the attention of your enemies?"
That's exactly what I mean. The man in black hugged his fist at Yuan Han and the others, saying, "If there is any offense, please forgive me." β
"Where, where. As the saying goes, the four seas are brothers. If we can help the two of them with just a gesture, we have no reason to excuse ourselves. Yuan Han said as he handed Chan'er a look.
Chan'er then smiled and nodded, and said:
"We've rested here for a while, and it's time to get back on our way, and we'll just go in a few directions when we get out of here. β
"Thank you, Childe and Girl. The man in black saluted the two.
"If we can meet again, the little girl will definitely thank you. The doctor girl also said.
Subsequently, Yuan Han, Chan'er and others said goodbye to the two and walked out of the tavern.
"Yan Wu, Tie Yin, Qi Hong, the three of you took Xi Tao, Xiao Rao, and Pei Qi to the north, west, and south respectively. The county lord and I remain the same, or go to Ci'an Temple. About half a monthβon the eighteenth day of the first month, all the people will meet again in this city. Yuan Han commanded in a low voice.
"Yes, my lord. Yan Wu and the three replied in unison.
ββ¦β¦ The slave and the maid obeyed. Xitao and Xiaorao were reluctant to leave Chan'er, but they were helpless against Yuan Han's order.
Chan'er understood the intentions of the two, so she said with a soothing tone:
"Okay, I'll be with Uncle Sanhuang, and I'll be fine. But you, I don't worry. That's good, An Liu, Jun Yin, Yang Xin, you are responsible for secretly protecting Pei Qi, Xiao Rao, and Xi Tao, and Qi Hong, Tie Yin, and Yan Wu can also take care of each other. β
The reason why Chan'er arranged it this way was for good intentions, so that the martial arts strength of the three groups was relatively average, and the safety of Xitao, Xiaorao, and Peiqi would have nothing to worry about. At the same time, although there are only four people in Jinghu, Luodong, Huangfeng, and Yunwu who remained, their martial arts are not weak.
"The subordinates understand. An Liusan replied.
"Then the heavy responsibility of protecting the prince and the county lord is entrusted to you. Yan Wu looked at the four Jing Hu and said.
At the same time, Jun Yin distributed the four bags of dry food brought out of the tavern to everyone, and instructed the girls Xitao, Xiaorao, and Peiqi:
"There are six steamed buns in each of these three packs, and each pack was originally prepared for two people, but now it has become a group of three, and if it is insufficient, they will be replenished separately. β
Huang Feng also took another large bag of dry food.
After the things were distributed and the packing was packed, the group set off in four directions.
And inside the tavernβ
The two men suddenly climbed in through the side window, came to the table where the man in black and the medical girl were sitting, stood still, bowed and saluted:
"Subordinates, see Third Young Master and Miss Liu. β
"How is it?" asked the man in black, known as the "Third Young Master".
The two men raised their heads, and it was Qinglong and Vermilion Bird, who had followed Ni Xuyao, the eldest disciple led by the head of the Taiwu Sect, to the Demon Palace.
"Back to the third young master, the two subordinates quietly followed the two who left early in the morning and walked a long way, without letting them find out, but deliberately revealed their whereabouts to the people of the Demon Palace, and sure enough, Yu Jie led people to chase after him, but it was a pity that the man and the girl were young, and Yu Jie led people to evacuate after a short time. Qinglong reported.
"I expected that. However, the few people who left just now are really good bait. The man in black had a playful smile on his lips.
"Brother Meng, have you ever thought that there are quite a lot of them, maybe they are not small. The medical girl, that is, "Miss Liu," said with some concern.
"Rest assured. Even if they really met and clashed with the people of the Demon Palace, it would be fine for us. β
"Hmm. β
"It's you, how is your body, are you tired?" The man in black looked at the medical girl, his expression softened.
"It's fine. Thank you for always being with me. β
"You're all for me...... I have the heart to atone for my sins. β
"Brother Meng, I just hope that when everything is over, you can take me away from the world. β
"I promise you. β

In the Hengguo Palaceββ
Helian Jialu, the lord of Helian County, handed over a letter written by Helian Bin, the king of Ming County, to the Swiss Emperor. The Emperor read the letter, groaned for a while, and finally spoke:
"Tell King Mingjun for me, I will seriously consider his proposal, and I will contact him when the time is right. β
"Yes, Jialu remembered. β
The Emperor bowed slightly, and took the letter to the candle used for incense and lit it. In an instant, the letters burned out, leaving only a few ashes.
At this time, a guard outside the door announced:
"Your Majesty, your subordinates have important things to do. β
"Come in. The Ruihuang raised his voice.
Then Jialu retired first. Helian Jialu bowed and bowed, and then walked out of the palace.
"What's the matter?" asked the Emperor.
"Your Majesty, my subordinates received the news that Xiuyan, the fifth princess of Yi Kingdom, and her personal guard Changying said goodbye without saying goodbye. β
"Farewell, the fifth princess went back to the country first?"
The palace man in charge of receiving the guests of Yi Guo said that Xiuxuan, the sixth prince, had no idea about the departure of the fifth princess. Therefore, my subordinates have come to ask for instructions, do you want to send someone out to look for it?"
"The five princesses of Yi Guo have been lost in our country, how can I explain to Yi Guo? immediately send a notice to the counties around Hengdu, but don't make public the identity of the five princesses, just let them pay more attention to them, and be sure to find the five princesses as soon as possible. β
"Yes. β
"Oh, and also, you immediately go to Qi Fan, the commander of the light car, and say that I will leave this matter to him with full responsibility. β
"My subordinates will do it. β
When the guards retreated, leaving Emperor Rui Xingyou alone in the palace, Emperor Rui sighed lightly and muttered to himself:
"If this is a trap set by Yi Guo......"
~~~
At this moment, Xiuyan, the fifth princess of Yi Guo, and her personal guard, Chang Ying, were selecting horses in a post station not far from the east gate of Hengguo Wei City. Since the post station was located on the south side of the East Gate, the two did not meet Yuan Han and the other six people who had just passed through the East Gate.
"Princess, I think that our disappearance must have been discovered, and the six princes will also send the news back to the palace, and then the country and Hengguo will send people to search for it. This place should not be stayed for long. Changying deliberately lowered his voice and said.
"Where is it so dangerous as you say. The fifth princess Xiuyan didn't take this seriously, and was still slowly looking at the horse and teasing the horse.
"There was something I was afraid you would worry about, so I didn't say it. This morning, two groups of people have followed us, the first two of whom we met in the tavern, and I don't know who they were. Luckily, they didn't come with them all the time. But we can't take it lightly. β
"Really?"
"And now the timing is not right, all countries have not weak forces gathered in Hengguo, a little careless, we may be ......"
"Don't say it!" Xiu Yan covered Changying's beak, "I know, it's me who plays too hard." Until I make sure I'm settled, I'm not going to do that, I'm going to listen to you. β
Changying held Xiuyan's hand in the palm of his hand, kissed it, and said:
"After picking the horses, we left. β
"Hmm. β

The fourth day of the first lunar month -
Emperor Jing of Yi was furious when he learned that the fifth princess, Xiuyan and Changying, had disappeared in Hengguo. The palace people who served the fifth princess Xiuyan heard the news and presented the letter left by the fifth princess before leaving the palace to Emperor Jing, according to Xiuyan's letter, her disappearance was a premeditated "elopement". Suddenly, Emperor Jing's heartache struck.
After the emotional reaction passed, Jing Huang regained his senses and suddenly realized another problem - he didn't know how to explain to Shu You. To tell the truth, worrying about the Shu family will inevitably have different intentions, but it really can't be hidden for long.
In this case, Emperor Jing heard that the fourth prince Xiuyao was chasing Shu Ning, the second lady of the Shu family, so he pushed the boat along the river to finally marry the Shu family. The wedding is scheduled to take place 10 days later.
At the same time, Emperor Jing sent a letter to Emperor Rui of Hengguo, for a period of one month, and Emperor Rui was limited to return the five princesses of Yiguo, otherwise the two countries would be in danger of war.
