The route that Wang Xiang chose for them was the most time-saving road on the premise of not entering Beijing, crossing the Neijiang River but not going ashore in Youzhou, and going all the way north from the east without stopping, until Hengzhou, Wei Yan, who was responsible for protecting Yao Jin's safety as the leader, was a little relieved.

"Ever since you left the borders of the Little Southern Kingdom, you have frowned all the way, cautious and cautious, as if someone would really come to assassinate us. You see, there was nothing to do along the way, and after a few days of walking through Hengzhou, we all arrived at Beiping Pass. Yao Jin handed Wei Yan a corn steamed bun, and when he saw that he frowned again, he didn't open his mouth, and said with a smile: "What, are you still not used to eating steamed buns from the north?"

"It's not. Wei Yan put down the steamed bun and looked around, frowning slightly. This is the largest inn in Hengzhou City, because Hengzhou was a war zone before, many buildings in the city were damaged, and the official post house has not been rebuilt, so they lived in this inn, and the Hengzhou County Order arranged a whole floor of guest rooms for them to live in, and a meal was also on a separate floor on the second floor. But the keen Wei Yan always felt that someone was watching them all the time since he entered this inn, and this dinner, he felt it especially strongly.

"What's wrong?" Yao Jin saw that his expression was abnormal, and he also put down his chopsticks, pulled off the silver hairpin on his head and tried each dish again, "Long Wan has already tried them one by one just now, there is no problem with the food?"

"Only you and I are eating in this hall, and everyone else is in their respective rooms. But if you look around, don't you think there are too many people waiting?" Wei Yan lowered her voice and pretended to look at the scenery outside the window, her eyes swept around, and she found that there were six or seven shopkeepers scattered around them.

Yao Jin's face changed slightly, he quietly glanced at both sides, and nodded slightly, "It's not right, even if our identity is not like ordinary people, how big is this inn, and where does the store have so many people." ”

"I don't know what I mean, I don't know what I want. It's daylight now, even if someone plots against you, forgive them and don't dare to do it immediately, we won't move here, Long Wan will naturally come to look for you after a long time, and then let her quietly notify the people of the escort team to come over. ”

"Why wait here, you go and inform the escort team, wouldn't it be faster for me to find Long Wan?"

"I don't dare to leave your side, in the past, in Neijiang, in the Jiangmen Pharmacy General Administration, it was because I was not by your side that so many things happened, I ...... I'll never leave you again. Wei Yan shook the long sword at his waist and looked at Yao Jin with a firm gaze, "No matter what the others do, I want you to be safe and sound." ”

Yao Jin's heart is hot, and her eyes are a little red, since she was a child, her father left home and her mother remarried, and she studied and worked in a different place, although she later had a job in Yuebai, everything was slowly getting better, but her heart never dared to relax for a moment, she always felt that if she didn't work hard, everything around her would be gone, and she would be abandoned again. And now there is finally a person who is completely on her side, and the past has proved that no matter what she does, even if she is wrong in his eyes, this person will not leave her, and he cherishes her so much that the helplessness in her heart has found a place to take root. Yao Jin slowly squeezed Wei Yan's hand, raised his head and said resolutely: "Okay, we will not be separated." ”

The two of them slowly spent time in the hall, the sun was setting, the sun was dark, and until the lights came on, the two still had no intention of leaving. They didn't leave, and none of the people around them left, one by one they wiped and wiped the corner of the table, the windowsill and even the railing, but the action was very violent, and it didn't look like wiping, but like peeling off a layer of skin.

Sure enough, seeing that Yao hadn't returned to the house for a long time, Long Wan came over, and when she saw that the two of them were still eating, she smiled and said: "Your Highness has worked hard all the way, and today I can finally sit down and have a good meal, I see that the market outside is very lively, and many street stalls are doing thriving business, why don't you go to the street and buy some snacks to add food to Your Highness?"

Yao Jin's heart moved, due to the large number of guards, a small number of them lived here, and most of them lived in a few smaller inns next door, she just let Long Wan take the opportunity to go out and inform the others, so she smiled and said: "Wan'er really knows the princess's mind best, come and get some silver taels, go outside." ”

Long Wan was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had always had broken silver around her, Her Royal Highness the princess knew it, but why did she let herself go over to take it, seeing Wei Yan on the side with a solemn expression, she stepped forward to Yao Jin's side quietly, leaned over and whispered, "Your Highness?"

Yao Jin slowly took out some broken silver from the purse on his waist, and quickly said: "There is a problem in this place, quickly notify all the guards to come to the inn to protect us!"

Long Wan was startled, and then she felt that the eyes around her seemed to be staring at them intentionally or unintentionally, and hurriedly put away the broken silver on the table, raised her voice and said: "Yes, Your Royal Highness Princess, the slave maid is going to take a closer look, please wait here!" ”

"I first arrived, I didn't know what was here, how did I tell you to buy it?" Long Wan's face sank, "Since you know that I am a nobleman, then what are you that dare to come and block my way?"

Seeing Long Wan's unhappy face, the shopkeeper didn't seem to be afraid, he still didn't let go, and continued to smile: "The nobles are precious, if there is a half-point difference, the small heads can't afford to lose, so the nobles still stay in the inn with peace of mind, if there is any need, the small ones will go out to do it." ”

At this moment, Yao Jin had already seen that these people were determined not to let them leave this floor, so he got up and said: "Wan'er, what this junior said is right, you are not at ease when a girl goes out to this princess, anyway, you have to rest for a day tomorrow, forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow." ”

Long Wan was stunned, and just as she didn't know where to go, suddenly Yao Jin overturned the table with force, grabbed Wei Yan's arm and rushed directly to the window-

That's right, she jumped again!

Ancient buildings were built very high, and these two floors must be at least as high as modern three-story buildings, when Yao Jin stepped on the table by the window, she saw that the street below was a little far away, and her feet were also a little weak, but she had long expected that she would definitely live with sound limbs until that dream came true, and Wei Yan's kung fu would not jump two floors, after all, she had learned many times how amazing "light gong" was. However, almost at the same time as the two jumped out of the window, several so-called "shopkeepers" also jumped out after him, almost falling to the ground with Yao Jin's feet before and after, Yao Jin was secretly complaining, but Wei Yan picked her up and casually pushed down several street stalls around, which immediately caused chaos and screams, and he also took the opportunity to rush to the dark alley next to him.
