"Aunt Yan, Aunt Yan, I heard them say that Linchuan is very close to Jiangcheng, and it is only a few days' walk from left to right, so it is better for us to go to Jiangcheng secretly, I, you, and Ah Shi, just the three of us, don't need to tell the faint king in Yecheng...... Don't talk to Sister Scarlet, I'm ...... I miss Sister Scarlet, I really haven't seen you for a long time......"

At the end of the year, on the carriage from Yecheng to Linchuan, Xuanyuan Qi's whole person was like a frosted eggplant, wilting and half-lying on the body of Mrs. Yan on the side, frowning, her face was no longer ruddy, and a little sallow was getting deeper.

Since following Xuanyuan Xuan's will that day and walking out of Yecheng, the group has rushed to the remote Linchuan almost day and night. Because of the rapid journey, it is inevitable that there will be more or less bumps along the way, and after a long time, Xuanyuan Qi, who is already intolerant of long-distance carriages and horses, has a small illness, and there are many new calluses and blood blisters on his body in less than a month.

"Qi'er, close your eyes and sleep first, and we'll ......be there when we wake up."

While patting Xuanyuan Qi slowly in her arms, Mrs. Yan whispered, and hummed an unknown minor tune in Jiangcheng of the Han Kingdom. Under this soft-spoken coaxing, Xuanyuan Qi's eyelids fell deeper and heavier, and after the carriage jolted a few times, she was already asleep in the arms of Mrs. Yan.

In fact, if he said that he wanted to go to Jiangcheng secretly, Xuanyuan Qi had said it many times along the way.

At the beginning, Xuanyuan Qi just jokingly said that she would not be her King Kang obediently in Linchuan, and sooner or later she would sneak to Jiangcheng to have a look.

Later, he said that he wanted to bring Mrs. Yan, and then later, he said that he wanted to bring Liu Shi. At first, Liu Shi and others thought that she was just throwing a temper, but later, the closer the carriage and horses got to Linchuan, Xuanyuan Qi said more and more, and sometimes, even dreaming a few words, they all said that they were going to find Gongyifei.

It's just that almost every time he dreams like this, Xuanyuan Qi wakes up crying.

There is no need to think about it, and there is no need to use magic to probe Xuanyuan Qi's dream, Yu Qinglin can probably expect that Liu Chu's death has made her lose her mind.

He was born to die of his mother, and lost his father at the age of two. Back then, she even witnessed the tragic situation of her deceased father, was frightened and speechless, and cried at night. Because of this, she was saddled with the name of "Tiansha Lone Star", and was jealous and disgusted by the princely clan, if it weren't for the care of Liu Chu, who was like her biological parents, she would be afraid that it would be difficult for her to grow up safely and healthily to this age.

If you want to say who the people who loved her the most in Yecheng, it is Liu Chu, who grew up watching her, and Xuanyuan Xuan, who used to be a "brother".

But it was Xuanyuan Jue who killed Liu Chu.

"Woo ......" With the coachman's shout, the carriage that Yu Qinglin and Liu Shi were riding in immediately stopped, and Yu Qinglin, who had been meditating with his eyes closed on the carriage, also interrupted his meditation.

"Dao...... Mr. Yu, wait here for a moment, and let me go and see what is going on. ”

After a pause, thinking of Yu Qinglin's identity, Liu Shi decided to go out and have a look by himself. A few months ago in Yecheng, he should have been beheaded for the crime of killing the monarch to show the public, but he couldn't change everything that was already destined.

He survived, never changed his name or surname, and never changed his appearance. After all, the aggressive ministers in Yecheng didn't care who the dead person was......

"Aunt Yan, is something wrong?"

"It's Qi'er, Qi'er's forehead is very hot! The high fever does not go away! ”

Before Liu Shi approached the carriage in front of him, Mrs. Yan had already lifted the corner of the curtain and waved to Liu Shi anxiously. When Liu Shi squeezed into the carriage, Mrs. Yan lowered her voice and told him carefully.

"She just had a rash on her hands, feet, and neck, and I blame it, I should have found out that something was wrong with her, I'm afraid it was...... I'm afraid it's a pox epidemic, how can this be good?! ”

Although they have only been together for a few years, Mrs. Yan also truly loves Xuanyuan to the core. It was so critical that her words began to be indistinct.

When Liu Shi heard this, he immediately squatted in the narrow carriage and immediately rolled up Xuanyuan Qi's sleeves. In front of me, the shocking, dotted red rash has spread to the palm of the finger.

"It's my carelessness, we have all been infected with the pox and cured, only the prince has not been infected, I think it should be the prince a few days ago in the accidental contact with the rash of the sick child, along the way, she was not patient with the fatigue of the car and horse, until this time the rash, the goose ...... Auntie, you don't have to blame yourself for this......"

Liu Shi shook his head, loosened Xuanyuan Qi's sleeves again, pulled it, and clenched Xuanyuan Qi's hands into fists, trying to cover those red rashes under the wide sleeves of his robe.

Although he was sleepy, Xuanyuan Qi could still feel his hands, feet, back, and face, all of which were crawling around like a hundred and ten ants and insects in the flowers, biting and biting. She couldn't help but squint her eyes and raised her hand to grab it.

"Good boy, good boy, don't catch it!"

Mrs. Yan said, and hurriedly pressed Xuanyuan Qi's hand down desperately. It's okay not to say that she didn't move, Xuanyuan Qi was tightly bound by Mrs. Yan's hands and feet, but she felt even more itchy and unbearable, she was so sad that she kept rubbing the wall of the car with her back, but this was just a drop in the bucket, or, it was even worse.

"It's so itchy...... It's so itchy...... It's really itchy, woo woo woo ......" Because of the discomfort, Xuanyuan Qi simply slammed into the car wall behind her again and again, along with her head, as if such a self-inflicted method could really relieve the itching pain of the rash on her body.

With such a move, Liu Shi and Mrs. Yan were in a hurry. But right now, there is no medical center to be found in this suburb, and there is no way to find it.

Not to mention that the deadline for carrying out the order is approaching, and Xuanyuan Qi is infected with a pox epidemic, if others find out that she is a daughter when they are diagnosed and treated, I am afraid that before she can survive this evil disease, she will be convicted of bullying the king.

If it is placed on weekdays, Liu Shi must be able to handle it carefully, but at this time, he only cares about Mrs. Tongyan holding it down and appeasing Xuanyuan Qi, in a hurry, there is no way at all, but now, he and Mrs. Yan have stopped the carriage for a long time, and it will soon make people suspicious.

It was also at this time that the carriage curtain behind Liu Shi was suddenly opened by a green jade bone fan, and there was a gap that was only a palm's width.

The one who came was Yu Qinglin, who had changed into the costume of the former Boundless Master.

Due to the small space of the carriage and Mrs. Yan, it was inconvenient for Yu Qinglin to lean in, but he only saw at a few glances that Xuanyuan Qi was infected with pox plague. While looking, Yu Qinglin subconsciously groped into the sleeves of his robe, wanting to take out some of the pills he occasionally brought with him on weekdays, but he felt empty.

Yes, before he came, he went back to Zhishui Peak once, and because he was worried about Fei'er, he left all the pills that he didn't have much on his body in Zhuyuan.

"It's okay, although she is dangerously ill, Xuanyuan Qi will never stop here, I will treat her. As for the present...... Instead, I have to find a way to find a secluded place for her to settle down and recuperate, and it will take me two or three hours to collect and refine medicine. ”

So, Liu Shi hurriedly arranged for a group of carriages and horses to set off immediately, looking for a place to rest, and the accompanying supervisor was tired because Xuanyuan Qi had been weak and tired for several days, and he knew that Xuanyuan Qi had a lot of injuries on his body, but he was not suspicious for a while, and besides, he couldn't wait to send this naturally unlucky Tiansha Lone Star to Linchuan as soon as possible, and he could return to Yecheng as soon as possible.

That night, a group of carriages and horses rested in the post house that was only half a month away from Linchuan.

The land of Linchuan is remote and remote, and the miasma is full of smoke, and the post houses in the nearby areas are naturally not much better. Mo said that it was far inferior to King Kang's Mansion, and even the accompanying supervisor, who was accustomed to seeing poor mountains and bad waters, couldn't help frowning as soon as he entered the gate of the post house.

Because it is far away from Yecheng, the climate is far different from Yecheng. In the scorching winter, there was no snow, and the rain was abundant, and the wind was blowing so hard that it made people cold to the bone marrow.

The supervisor originally thought that he could rest well after entering the post house, but unexpectedly, the ruined post house made him almost unbearable.

It was obviously a blue day, but the post house was dark and oppressive, and the supervisor shook his whip and shouted in the courtyard for a long time, and only then did a white-haired old post man move out slowly. When he entered the hall, the warden sat down, but at the same time he felt a sticky filth on his hands, and he glanced at his palms, which were black and black, and he didn't know whether they were stained with ash or something else.

"Phew, something!" The warden spat and picked up the teacup angrily, but it was okay if he didn't take it, and as soon as he took it, he happened to catch a glimpse of the grease and dirt on the teacup that had been impure for many years.

The warden furrowed his eyebrows, poured the tea on his dirty hands, and barely washed it clean. But it was precisely this washing that made him see clearly, and it was not as simple as getting some ash on the bottom of the pot on his hands, but countless black flies that were crippled or flattened, half-dead!

"Phew! Anyway, I'll leave tomorrow to go back, it's really not a place for people to live! ”

As the warden looked up and looked around, he noticed that the black flies on the top beams and walls of the inn house, which he had thought were smoke or grease, were all gathered together.

Even the prisoner, who was accustomed to seeing unbearable scenes, couldn't help but can't help but pour out a stream of sour water from his stomach, rushing straight to his throat, and he was about to spit it out in front of everyone. After the discomfort was easily calmed down, the prison officer watched the messengers coming in and out, and the family members came and went in front of him for a long time, for a long time, but they did not see the most important people.

"Phew! Just this time, next time I won't say anything! ”

The supervisor muttered, with his hands behind his back and a whip in his hand, and immediately found Xuanyuan Qi and the others in the post house.

Although it is said that he is a prince who has no power and no power to be sealed to this kind of ghost place, but now it is only a few days, if something really suddenly goes wrong, in the end, he will inevitably be questioned.

"This day is a lonely star, don't live as long as his short-lived old man!"

Complaining and cursing all the way, the supervisor didn't expect that this dilapidated post house was actually not small, he went around in circles for almost half an hour, and only found the missing ones in the innermost room on the second floor of the west corner of the post house.

"Phew! Really looking for a place! Okay, I'll see, one, two, three, well, no more, no less...... Ahem, it's about to arrive in Linchuan, don't make any mess of the hell! When the time comes, the whole world will not be the king's land, but if the emperor asks about the crime, none of you will want to run! ”

The supervisor pushed open the door in a hurry, but only saw Xuanyuan Qi sleeping on the couch, Liu Shi who was packing his bags, and Mrs. Yan who covered Xuanyuan Qi with a quilt on the side. Fortunately, he didn't take a step closer, otherwise, he would have found the dense red rash on Xuanyuan Qi's face that had nowhere to hide.

"Your Excellency, please rest assured, the prince and I will definitely keep to ourselves. It's the adults who are busy and hard all the way, so they should have a good life and rest. ”

Liu Shi came to meet him, took out a silver ingot from his cuff, and stuffed it directly into the prisoner's hand.

Mo said that King Kang lost his power and was driven out of Yecheng alone, even if he was honored and favored, although the official rank of this supervisor was not high, but the prince who had always been sealed outside had never dared to provoke him.

When the supervisor walked away, Liu Shi immediately closed the door and lowered the window.

"I hope the elder can go and return to ...... soon"
