"What the hell is going on?" Pei Da hurriedly put the long sword in his hand on Bai Yi's neck on the other side.

"Princess Zhaoyun and I have changed rooms."

"What?" Pei Da and the others exclaimed in unison, their eyes full of surprise.

Over there, Song Qi just covered his mouth and nose, and kicked open the chamber, and there were burning flames mixed with thick smoke, rushing to his face.

"Retreat!" They dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding it.

"Look at this fire, Princess Zhaoyun is only afraid that it is ......" A guard covered his mouth and nose and said quickly.

When the other guards behind him heard this, they all sighed.

"You'd better pray in your hearts that the princess is okay, or we won't be able to do it!" Song Qi clenched his hands into fists and slammed them against the wall.

"That's right! If the princess has three long and two short, what will we do! ”

"If I am convicted of poor escort, what will my wife and children do!"

"I haven't lived enough!"

The hearts of several guards instantly chuckled and wailed.

"Enough!" Song Qi roared angrily, "Your top priority now is to keep the princess safe and sound, and one of them is crying here!" ”

"You have yourself to save, it's not just a matter of playing tricks here!"

Now hearing the scathing words of a guard, Song Qi frowned and secretly clenched his fists.

Suddenly seeing that the fire had become smaller, Song Qi shouted "Princess Zhaoyun" a few times, but no one answered for a long time.

"There seems to be a man lying on the ground!" One of the guards exclaimed.

Song Qi looked in the direction he pointed, and his heart instantly cooled half. I saw a woman lying on the ground, and her whole person had been swallowed up by the raging fire.

"It's hopeless! It's so cool! Hu Laosan held Bai Yi hostage, and said gloating just by looking at it.

"Third child, let's go!" Pei Da also glanced at "Zhaoyun" and sighed regretfully.

It is said that since ancient times, women have a thin life, and this princess's life is even thinner, a good beauty! It's a pity that he provoked the powerful horns in the palace. Now they didn't do it, but they also, hey, it's really fate!

"Why are you stunned here, why don't you hurry up and put out the fire!" Bai Yi, who was being held hostage, couldn't care about the pain in his neck at all, and yelled at the guards.

"Yes, hurry up and put out the fire! Are you trying to burn down my entire inn? When the shopkeeper heard the news, he rushed to him, panting and roaring.

"Let's go!" Song Qi and several guards each carried two buckets of water, hurriedly pushed away the people who blocked the way, and splashed them into the wing.

The other guards reacted and joined the firefighting team.

It's a pity that the fire was put out too slowly, and the fire burned too quickly, and the wing room had already become a sea of fire.

The fire was growing bigger and bigger, and in the frightening redness of the light, everyone saw the houses distorting.

In the heat of the fire, everything in the house was surrounded by flames, and there was a sound of cracking from time to time.

Everyone poured buckets of water into it one after another, and they were all tired and sweating. However, the fire is still vigorous, although there are visible signs of subsiding.

At this time, the night was as black as thick ink, and it was even deeper and heavier. Outside the inn, the number of stars is counting, and January is like a string.

On the path in the cold moonlight, two people and two horses are galloping wildly.

"Princess, where are we going now?" Ming Cui raised her head to look at the frosty bright moon, and shouted at Zhaoyun, who was in front of the countermeasure.

"Imjin Ferry!"

Zhaoyun didn't look back, and rose more and more.

After a string of clattering horses' hooves, only the dust kicked up by the horses remained.

By the time Zhaoyun and the others were about to arrive at Imjin, it was already a moment.

Zhaoyun hurriedly tightened the reins, took out a letter from his arms, and handed it to Mingcui on the side.

"You go to Linyuan Pavilion quickly and give this letter to Su Zidui in person!" Zhaoyun hurriedly said, "Okay Mingcui, after you send the letter, stay in Linyuan Pavilion first, and wait for me to come back!" ”

As soon as Ming Cui took the letter, as soon as she heard the words, her face immediately changed, and she said decisively: "How can I leave the princess alone to go into danger?" I'm going to stay and protect the princess! ”

"Mingcui, I'm not a princess anymore, I'm just a commoner. Also, if you stay, what will happen to this letter? Zhao Yun hurriedly said, "Besides, you don't know martial arts, and it's just in vain to stay." Okay Mingcui, take a snapshot of what I said to do! ”

Ming Cui was about to say something, but when she heard this, she reluctantly tightened the horse's rope and slowly turned around.

After turning his head and looking at it reluctantly, he clamped the horse's belly and whipped away.

Zhaoyun looked at her back and sighed unconsciously. I hope Su Zidui sees the letter and can come to support her as soon as possible!

Seeing Mingcui walking away, Zhaoyun turned over and dismounted, unsaddled it for it, and loosened the reins in his hand.

The horse felt that she was out of bondage, so she lowered her head and arched her palm affectionately with her little brown sideburns.

After Zhaoyun touched its sideburns, he saw it staggering westward.

At this time, it is the night when the wind is quiet and the stars are sparse.

She tightened her clothes and hurriedly walked towards the ferry.

"Hurry up, you guys are quick with your hands and feet, and carry the last few burdens of tea to the boat!" Far away, I heard a familiar voice coming.

It's him! She once had a one-sided relationship with Wang Shoudao!

Since there was no shelter around, she had to hide quietly behind a bamboo pole, and peeked into the situation ahead by dissolving the moonlight.

The sand boat was docked at the ferry. Wang Shoudao was standing on the deck, directing the porters in coarse cloth on the ferry, carrying their burdens to the boat.

Zhaoyun secretly pushed the burden in front of him hard, and saw that it had moved forward a little.

She hurriedly and secretly uncovered the silk cloth covering the burden and looked, and sure enough, it was an empty burden!

Surprised, two voices came from afar: "Why is there still a burden there?" ”

"Really? Let's go check it out! ”

When Zhaoyun heard this, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind. Hurriedly uncovered the silk cloth and dodged into it.

It wasn't long before there was a rush of footsteps. Zhaoyun held his breath, looked through the gap between the bamboo tans, and cautiously looked at the two pairs of straw sandals on the side of the dan.

"Is this also tea? You uncover it! As soon as she heard this, her heartbeat instantly became disordered, and she repeatedly whispered, "Don't be discovered!" ”

When the shadow covering the cloth overhead was getting bigger and bigger, and he was nervous, Wang Shoudao's voice came from a distance again.

"What are you two doing there, don't you see so many of us waiting for you two?"

When he noticed that the flat pole under him was being staggered up, Zhaoyun breathed a sigh of relief.

The two porters were carrying their burdens to the ferry, when one of them said with a frown.

"How is it that this burden is lighter than the one who went first? Wang Mazi, do you feel it? ”

Zhaoyun, who was sitting in the burden, heard this, and his heart was lifted again.

"A hundred catties per load, I also think this burden is very light, maybe the unscrupulous businessman is secretly short of two catties!"

Hearing this, Zhaoyun, who wanted to sit up, breathed a sigh of relief for a moment.

It wasn't until I felt the bumpy burden under me fall to the ground, and after a short while, I looked out along the crack of the bamboo burden.

I saw that there were bamboo poles of the same size all around, and it seemed that this was already the cargo hold.

Zhaoyun was about to go out to investigate the surrounding situation, but suddenly heard a sound of fragmented footsteps getting closer and closer.

"It's really worth going to Xiwu, not only can I get some more silver taels, but I can also get a set of clothes issued by the government."

"But isn't it, when will we be treated like this?"

"Here, put it on, put it on, and see if this set of hair fits!"

After a few people spoke, there was a sound of rustling.

Zhao Yunhe had experienced this, and quickly tilted his head to the side and closed his eyes tightly. She tried to ignore the noises, praying silently for them to leave soon.

After a while, the rustling gradually stopped. But a few people still didn't leave, hiding here and making trouble.

"Have any of you ever been to Xiwu?"

"Nope."

"Neither do I."

"If I hadn't heard that I could give more money this time, who would be willing to go so far!"

"yes, I heard that we are going to be going for more than half a month this time. If it weren't for a little silver tael, my mother-in-law really wouldn't let me go on this trip. ”

"Ouch, this is not the same person who has become a relative!"

After speaking, there was a burst of laughter, and a few beatings and scolding came.

Zhaoyun looked along the gap and saw five porters in short beats, talking and laughing outside.

"Huh? How many pieces are there here? The teased porter suddenly stepped aside and looked over.

"I'll take a look...... Isn't this the garment of a woman, and what is it doing here? ”

"Harm, it's not that this time I'll be going to sea for a long time, so Lord Wang, who is in charge of escorting, has recruited a few cooks to come to the boat to cook on the fire."

God help me! When Zhaoyun heard this, he immediately had a plan.

The people gathered around and said a few meat jokes again, and then left with a smile on their shoulders.

It's finally gone! Zhaoyun heard the footsteps mixed with laughter gradually fade away, so he breathed a sigh of relief and slowly uncovered the cloth covering his head.

After looking around, I went to take a random set of dresses that were stacked on a box not far away. Only then did he hide back in the burden and slowly change it inside.

The night's rush had already made her a little tired. When she was leaning against the bamboo wall and closing her eyes slightly, she heard a sound of footsteps coming from outside in a daze.

"It's a fat mess this time!" A slender middle-aged female voice sounded.

"Not really! I also asked my old man to have some connections, so that he could get on the boat. ”

"It is said that this time I also made clothes for us, tsk, if you really follow the government to do things, it is a lot of oil and water!"

"Let's go, let's see what kind of clothes it is!"

Zhaoyun hurriedly sat up, looked through the gap between the bamboo arms, and saw four middle-aged women wearing coarse cloth gowns and aprons coming in from outside the cabin.

"Oh, this fabric is so good!" The fat woman exclaimed, "Wearing me will definitely reflect my beautiful figure." ”

"Come on, look at your meat, I don't know if I think you're going to sell meat. I don't know how many catties and taels I have, no, there is a rice seller at the right turn of the ferry, and there is a scale in it, remember, don't break it for others. ”

The other woman rolled her eyes and said with disdain.

"If you're all like you, as thin as a monkey, and your mouth is like smearing, wouldn't everyone shout and beat you when you cross the street?" As soon as the woman with fat on her body heard this, she immediately rolled up her sleeves and wanted to fight.

"Okay, don't make any noise, we'll have to work later!" Hearing them arguing, the other two women, who were looking through their clothes, hurriedly persuaded them.

"Hmph" The two of them gave up, and each turned his head away, ignoring each other.

"Huh? How is this one missing! Someone looked at it and said in surprise, "There should be eight here, why are there only seven?" ”

When Zhaoyun heard this, he realized that Wang Shoudao had originally recruited eight cooks.

It wasn't until she heard that the four women had left that she took out the bamboo burden. After stretching his sore limbs a few times, he quietly walked out of the cabin.

At this time, the wind was already raging outside the cabin, and even the flag that was inserted on the mast and painted with the auspicious clouds of Yunqi was blowing in the wind.

At the junction of the river and the sky, there are already black clouds turning ink, but a section of mountains is faintly revealed in the sky.

Zhaoyun retracted his gaze and looked up to find that the night sky was a strange blood.

Looks like it's going to rain hard!

Sure enough, when she was quietly heading to the back cabin, several hideous lights flashed in the billowing black clouds above her head. Immediately, a torrential rain of beans poured down from the sky.

The water stirred up by the heavy rain splashed into the boat like white beads and gravel. It was also on the surface of the river, stirring up a thousand huge waves.

At this time, it is the fifth watch of the sub-hour. On the bank of the Wangchao River near the Imjin ferry, there is also a sand boat, braving the heavy rain, slowly sailing away.

"It's raining so hard, get into the cabin and hide!" There was an exclamation of soldiers, coming from not far away.

Zhaoyun hurriedly covered his head and hurried towards the eaves of the boat when the boat surged with the torrent. But he never thought that in a panic, he would collide with an oncoming person.

After apologizing, she turned around and left. At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded.

"You turn around!" When she heard this, her heart instantly chuckled and she stopped hesitantly.

"Tell you to turn around, do you hear?" Wang Shoudao hurriedly scolded.

Zhaoyun clenched his fists and slowly did as he said.

Wang Shoudao saw that she turned around and showed an unfamiliar face, and a trace of doubt suddenly appeared in his heart.

When I just passed by her, I felt familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had seen it.

The woman in front of her had fair skin and delicate facial features. A black mole between the brow bones stands out. Although the face is plain, it is extremely unfamiliar.

When Wang Shoudao saw the clothes she was wearing, he realized that she was a cook. Only then did he rest assured that he walked down the eaves and returned to the main cabin with his hands behind his back.

Zhaoyun patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, she had the foresight to put on this mask before fleeing.

This is the last time I left the palace, I deliberately took a detour to find the shop in the market, but I didn't expect it to come in handy so quickly.

In her previous life, she had heard people mention that at the end of an alley on Linfen Street, there was a mask shop. The human skin masks sold inside are all fake. It seems that this is the case!

Zhaoyun touched the junction of the dough, it was really no different except for the different feel.

Then she patted her already wet clothes, looked at the curtain of water that had formed in the eaves of the ship, and turned to enter the aft cabin.
