It had been three or four days since Yan Qinghan's incident, and Lu Lan remembered that Mu Sheng, who had disappeared with Yan Qinghan, had gone with him before.

From the time Lu Yan was killed to the fact that the soldiers disappeared with Yan Qinghan, Lu Lan was thoughtful, and naturally he would not fail to understand the various connections between them, but he was afraid that Lu Yan's death was designed by them a long time ago, and Mu Sheng pretended to be in line with himself from the beginning.

"A group of self-conscious things are still playing hide and seek with the mourners!" Lu Yan sneered.

"Rong Wan, what happened to the results of the secret guard investigation sent?"

"Back to Niangniang, they have already rushed to Dongchuan, since the emperor is not there, they must be able to find some clues from there."

"Well, be quick, you must not let Qi Lie find him among the mourning family, the word mourning must make him disappear completely." Lu Lan's face was gloomy and he said fiercely.

"By the way, I was sent to keep an eye on that guy named Xiaoyi before, what happened to him these times?"

"Niangniang, none of the people sent have come out since they entered the woods on the outskirts of the city, so I don't know how he is doing." Rong Wan's voice instantly lowered a lot, and she lost her confidence.

"How capable he is? This person must not be underestimated, Xiaoyi, could it be that he can really be the remnant of the Xiao family who escaped from the mourning family back then? If this is the case, if the mourning family does not kill him, he will kill himself. ”

"That's it! It's just a fish that slipped through the net, why should the mother worry. Rong Wan said again without eyesight.

"I'll leave it to you, how can I not worry!" Lu Lan reprimanded.

Although Lu Lan is in the palace, there are a lot of eyeliners, ears and eyes outside the palace, so she knows almost everything she should know or not.

And those who are outside the palace, in addition to being careful to watch out for her, also have to plan what they should do.

.......

On that day, Yan Qinghan and Mu Sheng set off from Dongchuan in the morning, but they had already left Dongchuan at noon, and before that time, the two entered the adjacent city.

"Why don't we rest here today, you still have injuries on your body, it's better not to run too much."

Entering the city, Mu Sheng looked around, and then proposed.

"Actually, my injuries are fine." Yan Qinghan was afraid that Mu Sheng would slow down his trip because of the injuries on his body, after all, before Qi Guang and the others returned to the Wan Dynasty, his whereabouts were still safe, if they went back, it would not be long before his whereabouts would be exposed.

"Didn't you say that Dongchuan will only be there in two days from Qingtai, don't worry, even if Lu Lan wants to make a move, it won't be so fast, I don't want you to fall down first before you reach Qingtai."

Mu Sheng knew what Yan Qinghan was worried about, but he was also too nervous.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you." Yan Qinghan responded.

"Let's go."

With that, Mu Sheng continued to walk forward.

The two quickly found an inn and walked in.

"Shopkeeper, we want two rooms." Mu Sheng said.

"Girl, I'm sorry, the shop is full, so you might as well change your home."

After Mu Sheng heard this, he turned his head and left, and when he went out, he walked to another house.

"Girl, the shop is full"

walked two or three houses, all of them were the same answer, Mu Sheng was really helpless.

"What kind of mold did you hit today, why are there so many people staying in the hotel?" Mu Sheng complained, is it so difficult to find a place to rest now?

"No, there's another one, we'll ask again." Yan Qinghan was not in a hurry or impatient, and pointed to a house not far away, which was also the last inn in the city.

Mu Sheng had no choice but to walk towards this last inn with his last hope.

This inn is not large, as soon as Mu Sheng walked in, he was already half disappointed, those big inns were full, not to mention this small one.

"Shopkeeper, but there is still a room?" Yan Qinghan saw Mu Sheng's displeasure, so he walked to the front of the stage in person and asked.

"Yes, do you two live?" The shopkeeper replied, raised his head as he spoke, and looked at Mu Sheng who was standing behind Yan Qinghan.

"There's one room left, and you two live just right."

"One? There were two of us. Mu Sheng stepped forward and said suspiciously.

"Aren't you two husband and wife?"

Hearing what the shopkeeper said, Mu Sheng had to wonder if there was something wrong with his eyes, where did the two of them look like husband and wife.

"Yes, the last one, we want it."

Before Mu Sheng could refute it, Yan Qinghan deserved it.

When the shopkeeper heard this, he nodded slightly, and then said: "I'll just say, the second room of Xuanzi upstairs." ”

"Let's go." Yan Qinghan looked at Mu Sheng and said lightly.

"One room, one bed, two people, how can you sleep......" Mu Sheng followed behind Yan Qinghan and muttered quietly.

Yan Qinghan went up to the staircase and suddenly stopped, Mu Sheng didn't notice it, he hit his strong back, and almost didn't stand firm and fell, but fortunately, Yan Qinghan turned around and took her into his arms.

"Walking is still so half-hearted." Yan Qinghan looked at her and said lightly.

Mu Sheng quickly straightened up, stood still, and said angrily: "Obviously, you suddenly didn't move, and you didn't make a sound." "I love to read

Yan Qinghan smiled, turned around and continued to walk forward.

Approaching the end of the corridor, the two looked up, and the four-character room sign of "Xuanzi No. 2" was hung in front of the room.

Yan Qinghan pushed the door in, and the room was quite clean and tidy.

As soon as Mu Sheng entered the house, he sat down, and he was tired from yesterday to now, and he was finally able to rest.

She put down her saber and stroked her sore and swollen calves with both hands, while Yan Qinghan noticed the injury she had suffered yesterday on her ankle.

Last night in the forest the night was dark, he didn't look carefully, today he saw that the strips of cloth wrapped in it were already dripping with blood.

Yan Qinghan walked over and lifted Mu Sheng's feet, "What's wrong?" Mu Sheng hadn't reacted yet.

"You have all the injuries on your ankles like this, don't you know that they hurt?" Yan Qinghan's eyebrows frowned slightly, and there was distress in his tone.

Listening to his words, Mu Sheng looked at the wound on his ankle, and then felt the pain, it seemed that he was too tired, and he forgot that there was a wound on his ankle, it seems that people really can't feel pain when they are too nervous, no wonder Yan Qinghan can bear it so much, and he can feel it today.

Mu Sheng withdrew his foot, covered it with his skirt, and said, "A little injury, what is there to cry out about pain." ”

Yan Qinghan took out the trauma medicine that Mu Sheng took back in Dongchuan City yesterday from his bag, and lifted Mu Sheng's feet again, Mu Sheng saw this, and hurriedly stopped: "It's okay, this medicine is already less, your wound still needs to be changed, what are you wasting it on me!" ”

Where would Yan Qinghan listen to him say this, he directly untied the cloth strip and sprinkled it on the wound, Mu Sheng saw that most of the bottle of the Jinchuang medicine he bought was poured out by him like this, and his heart ached.

"My wound is an injury, isn't yours? When did you become so uncaring for yourself? Yan Qing said quietly.

He is injured, but he can heal himself in two days, but he is different, now there is not much entanglement on her body, it cost her a lot of silver taels to buy these medicines yesterday, and now she has wasted so much, Yan Qinghan's words She didn't listen to a word.

"You have really been the emperor for a long time, do you think that now is still the time when you say it? This medicine is so much less now, how can you change the medicine for your injury? ”

"I didn't buy it anymore, so why be so stingy?" Yan Qinghan really didn't understand.

Mu Sheng had no choice but to hold his forehead, and then said bitterly: "It's a pity that I'm shy in my pocket, Lord Emperor!" ”

Hearing her say this, Yan Qinghan understood, and co-authored that there was no money for a long time, and it was not easy to do, so he touched the money bag on his body, but after touching it for a long time, he didn't touch it.

Mu Sheng naturally saw what she was looking for, only to see her take out a silk black money bag embroidered with real dragon embroidery and shake it in front of her, Yan Qinghan could see at a glance that this was exactly what she was looking for.

"Why is it empty?" Yan Qinghan took the money bag, but it was empty.

"Take a closer look."

In response to Mu Sheng's words, he looked at it again, and there was a big hole on the side of the money bag, as if it had been cut by a sword.

"It must have been cut during the fight, alas, I thought I could count on you, but now it seems hopeless." Mu Sheng sighed and shook his head.

Of course, Yan Qinghan didn't want to see Mu Sheng's disappointed look, although the money was gone, there was still something to be done.

As he spoke, he untied the chisele-shaped jade pendant on his waist, and Mu Sheng looked at what he was holding and had already guessed what he was going to do.

got up, walked towards Yan Qinghan, took the jade pendant in his hand, and tied it back to Yan Qinghan's waist.

"This is a precious thing, as the old saying goes, a gentleman has no reason, jade does not go to the body, how can you pay attention to it." Mu Sheng said solemnly.

The gentleman has no reason, the jade does not go to the body, the gentleman is more than the jade, Mu Sheng is not wrong, it is not suitable for people to wear jade at will, the use of jade has risen to the height of the gentleman's "virtue", which is a warning to the gentleman's cautious behavior. Yan Qinghan is doing this now, isn't it a loss of morality.

"It's just a few rituals, when are they all there, and you're still worried about these?"

"That's not allowed."

After that, Mu Sheng took the money bag, poured out all the silver, and fell into deep thought, it seems that if he wants to use it enough, he has to save a little money, thinking about it and looking at Yan Qinghan on the side, hey, I didn't expect to be able to live so embarrassed with the emperor.

Yan Qinghan looked at Mu Sheng's expression and fluctuated, and he could probably guess what she was thinking, and an idea secretly came out of her heart.

Mu Sheng thought about it for a while, took the baggage, opened it, she still bought a lot of dry food in Dongchuan City yesterday, originally for nostalgia, but I didn't expect it to come in handy now.

"Let's eat, let's wronged you first, after all, you can't waste food." Mu Sheng put the dry food on the table and said to Yan Qinghan.

"What is this?"

"You haven't eaten it?"

Yan Qinghan shook his head.

"This is from the Western Regions, it's called Hu Cake, it's very delicious, you can taste it."

Yan Qinghan took a bite of the cake, and his eyes rolled, "It's delicious." ”

"Poof, haha, it's just a cake, you look like you're eating some kind of delicacies." Mu Sheng couldn't help but smile when she saw his surprised appearance, she thought that Yan Qing Hangui had never eaten anything for the emperor, and she hadn't seen anything, but now it seems that ordinary folk snacks can make him like this.

"It's more delicious than the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, and everything that can satisfy hunger is a good thing, and it is a good thing."

"That's right, it's just that where do the princes and nobles understand this, and the things they scoff at are often beyond the reach of the people."

Yan Qinghan put down the cake in his hand and looked at Mu Sheng, the person in front of him was obviously such a kind-hearted and elegant person, why was he never willing to understand her well before, so he made a conclusion about her, and now that he thinks about it, it is the luck of his three lives that she can still stand by her side.

"Although you are a princess, you are not so pampered and willful, but you care about the people, presumably the people of Dongchuan are blessed by a royal family like you, and it is also a blessing."

"Dongchuan is different from the Wan Dynasty, my father taught us to worry about the worries of the people first, and the joy of the people after the people, the gentleman and the people are the same, no distinction between high and low, but we bear the burden of protecting them."

"King Dongchuan is indeed a good king, and I want to do the same, but unfortunately the queen mother gains power one day, and this wish cannot be realized for a day."

Mu Sheng looked at Yan Qinghan's lonely expression, even if he was in the position of the emperor, he couldn't help it.
