At night in Xunyang City, I pushed the window and looked out, and the alley in front of me was in stark contrast to the old street I stayed in before.

There are very few people walking under the eaves of the street.

But I couldn't sleep, and there was an indescribable worry that always haunted me.

This feeling is inexplicable, and it confuses me beyond words.

Footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door.

The night was deep, my vigilance came out spontaneously, the lights were blown out, and I quickly disappeared behind the tent.

The shocking changes that began in Yubei made it impossible for me to treat the scene in front of me with a calm mind.

I quietly noticed the sounds in the hallway in the dark.

The sound of footsteps lingered in my doorway, and step by step, my nerves tensed, and I focused on the haunting footsteps.

To my surprise, the other party lingered outside my door for a long time, and when I pushed the door and rushed out to see, it disappeared!

Silence didn't bring reassurance, and I hesitated for a moment before making the decision to move the interior to another location.

Speaking of which, the rooms in the inn are still the most ordinary, and the furniture adds up to very little.

I swept my eyes around the room, moved the table in the window behind the door, pressed it against it, and placed a chair on top of it.

I also checked the wooden pins with the window to make sure they were tightly fastened.

I don't know why these uneasy feelings came to a head tonight, I'm just on my gut guard against it!

But I also know that if there are really masters, these are not enough, and they will not play a big role at all.

But. It's good to be able to delay for a few seconds, time is precious in times of crisis!

When I reached a certain level of precaution, I gave up the idea of going to sleep in chuang.

I leaned against a shelf at the edge of the chuang tent and quietly recalled the situation on the road when I came. Even the actions of the hostess family who were rushing to the car were thought about.

I couldn't find anything wrong for the time being, and I didn't meet any strangers who were interrogating us or interested in us along the way.

I repeatedly hinted to myself that I was safe in this moment

Even I don't know when I fell asleep.

When I woke up, the sky outside was already cloudy. The qiē in the room was the same as last night's, and there were no signs of anomalies.

I breathed a sigh of relief and restored the interior before Ji Jiu's knock on the door

At the same time, the side door of the Tianxiang Building in the old street. The great general of the Sealand court changed into his usual clothes and waited there when he walked on the streets, which would drown out the crowds.

As usual, when the people waiting for them to go out are still clear.

In her opinion, that son, no, is now the son who is called the national teacher, and the new national teacher himself is not very concerned about such extraordinary courtesy.

She was keenly aware. He himself doesn't seem to like the title yet.

The person who has been by the empress's side for a long time, which one is not a human spirit, so she obeys the other party's preferences. At least along the way, they have never called each other unpleasantly the word "national teacher".

In other words, she didn't even see the other party's face carefully and clearly.

This person is not a Sealand man, but he is very good at following the customs of the country, and he walks in and out like the son of a rich and noble family in the capital of the country.

I like to dress in white. The wind god is idle, and the atmosphere is desolate!

However. The empress's orders must not be disobeyed, and she is the same as before. You only need to do what you need to do with your duties, and send your son to the north.

Thinking of being there, the empress had been waiting a little anxiously.

In the cold wind of the early morning, she felt two letters in her sleeve, the first was a letter from Yuzhou that was delivered urgently, and the latter was a letter from Gongzi's hand that was almost completed overnight.

When she saw the letter last night, she changed color, but when the letter was handed over to the son, the other party actually returned it after reading it.

There was also a sentence attached to the return letter: "In addition to Yubei, how many war horses can be mobilized in the west camp of the imperial city of the national capital?" ”

Childe's voice was a little lazy as always, this good voice was extremely beautiful and even a little light and breezy, but she still couldn't help sweating as she stood there.

The coercion of the so-called superiors always exists all the time!

This feeling is even worse than staying by the Empress's side!

She was stunned, wiped the sweat from her forehead and quickly lowered her head to respond to the approximate number.

In exchange for his firm voice: "Got it." ”

There is no more follow-up.

She was unwilling to wait, and turned back to his door under pressure and said: "Yubei's war horse is almost the basis for winning the battle, and now the news is still temporarily pressed in his hands, and he really doesn't know how to send a message to the north." ”

The next moment, there was a faint smile in his voice: "I'll write this letter." ”

The messenger, who had been waiting three paces away, finally saw the general's expression loosen.

A moment later, the letter was in his hands.

In the early morning of Xunyang, a fast horse rode out of the city gate, and the target was directly to the north - the empress's camp!

"Tuk Tuk" An unhurried knock sounded on the door, and Ji Jiu waited outside the door, waiting for a response from the person in the room.

But what he waited for was silence.

He stood at the door for a moment, suddenly remembering the experience he had before, his heart tightened, and he was hesitating to push the door in and take a look.

Could it be, just like last time, the room is empty, and people don't know when it's gone?

He finally reached out to push it, and just as his palm was about to touch it, it was opened from within

I opened the door and went out, looking at Ji Jiu who was stretching out his hand, staring straight at me, the pale cyan shadow under his eyes was very conspicuous, but his expression was rare embarrassed and nervous.

I didn't think much about it, and smiled faintly at him: "I went to the street today to prepare the things I need to use, and I will leave tomorrow morning, what do you think?" ”

"I'm going to go buy dry food in the morning and go to the pharmacy by the way," I said in a fluent tone. "In the afternoon, I went to the house of the sister who opened a tea shop, and they took me for a ride, and she took care of me on the way." "It's always a burden for me to be favored, especially in a place like Xunyang."

I looked into Ji Jiu's eyes and said, "As you know, there may not be a chance to come next time." ”

"So. I thought about it, and before I left, I would go to her shop. ”

I looked at Ji Jiu's expression, paused and said, "The silver you originally wanted to give her, just go to her tea shop to buy a few bags of tea to take away, what do you think?" ”

The two successive sentences of "how" made the cramped expression on Ji Jiu's face slowly turn around. He bowed his head and said, "That's fine." ”

"Just go according to your plan." Ji Jiu raised his head and looked at me, with a look on his face that he could see for days, he looked at my face and said, "Since it has been decided, all the shops on the street are open at this moment." “

He turned and walked first. Lead the way before me: "You come with me." ”

On the street of Xunyang City, I found a snack bar, asked for two bowls of noodles, and planned to buy what I said when I was full.

People rushing to the morning market on the street passed by us, and the streets of the mountain city of Xunyang were still filled with a faint fog.

The hot noodles were served, and after a few bites, there was a sudden commotion on the other side of the street.

I stopped my chopsticks, almost at the same time. Ji Jiu reacted in the same way.

On the streets of Xunyang City, the guards dressed in similar clothes that I saw at the city gate yesterday were passing by in a procession.

My gaze swirled around their bodies, and I always felt that the expressions of these people today looked much stricter than the ones I saw yesterday.

Soon. That's where I got the answer.

The man sitting next to us lowered his voice and whispered the news that had broken this morning.

Ji Jiu and I listened silently, and occasionally exchanged a knowing look.

The hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly, but the expression on my face remained silent.

Here it comes!

Although it was much later than elsewhere, the news finally arrived in this mountain town.

The empress's conscription order was issued, and the city gates soon began to be posted.

The efficiency of the city guards is, of course, extremely high.

This means that the next Xunyang, the topic of continuous discussion for a period of time will revolve around this matter.

I chewed wax and ate a whole bowl of noodles. Seeing Ji Jiu, who was sitting opposite, also put down his chopsticks, I glanced at him.

Hurriedly paid for the face. I took Ji Jiu back to the mouth of a small alley I had just passed.

The big trees at the entrance of the alley pressed down the lush branches, and the shop just now was noisy. Intuition is not a good place to talk, and I chose this place because of the quietness.

Few people passed by, so I stood still in the shadow of the tree and said to Ji Jiu: "You just heard the people of Xunyang talking about it." ”

Ji Jiu said calmly: "What do you think? ”

I glanced down the street where the guards had walked and said, "You remember when we were in Hengcheng. ”

The situation in Hengcheng will be different from that here, except for the special exception of Yubei.

Once the conscription order comes down, there will always be some twists and turns.

I pursed my lips and said, "I'm afraid of change, and then make a plan in advance, and only take half a day to do what needs to be done." ”

"You go to buy dry food, and take a trip to the tea shop, and I'll go to the pharmacy." I snapped my fingers.

"When this is done, we will leave the city in the afternoon and head north."

Raising my head and glancing at the rising sun, I said in a calm tone.

"Today is the first day of the conscription order, and it's still calm for the time being," I said, "and it's not so fast to change." ”

Walking alone on the streets of Xunyang, the goal is very clear, it is the largest pharmacy on the street, I took the silver from Ji Jiu, and planned to complete the prescription I needed.

Originally, I wanted to pick an inconspicuous pharmacy, but Xunyang City said that it was not too big, and if one family couldn't get together, it would take more time to run a few stores.

Walking to the door of the pharmacy I was going to on the street, I quickened my pace and walked in, and a person rushed out of the door and bumped into me.

"I'm sorry, I borrowed it."

He passed me in a hurry, and the apologetic words drifted in the wind.

I stood there for a long time, and that back was so familiar!

(ps: It's not easy to be a mother, I thought that today's bad state was going to delay the update, but fortunately, the relatives who are waiting for me to update every day are accompanying me through every step of life, and we have to be good :) (To be continued).
