He raised his head sharply and said with a wicked smile: "I know what you mean, I will arrange this journey in advance." ”

"Hey, you know what I mean, I didn't say anything."

"Sleep." He kissed me the cheek, smiled contentedly, extinguished the candle, and hugged me tightly in his arms.

Before we traveled west, Shi Yu gave Yan Shao another banquet, and I refused Shi Yu's invitation as usual on the grounds of physical discomfort.

Also, Yan Shao traveled south from Jinzhou last year, he was a private trip in disguise, he first cheated to death for two years, and then suddenly appeared on the birthday of the Empress Dowager Qin, but a month and mysteriously disappeared from Jinzhou, needless to say, rumors about Yan Shao in Jinzhou City have come like a hustle and bustle.

Naturally, his whereabouts will be used by many well-intentioned people to make an article, and even if we cover it up well, it is impossible for the news of his presence in South Korea not to leak a little rumor.

Then, the next step to the west is to think carefully again.

On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, my master and I dressed up a team that was the same as when we went south, and went north with high-profile and even blatant behavior, returned to Jinzhou, and instructed this team to dismiss and disappear in the eyes of those who care about it at the right time.

In fact, on the nineteenth day of the first lunar month, a few of us had already gone out of the palace in disguise to an inn at the west gate of Junzhou City, and the master did not want to attract attention because he was wearing a gauze hat, so he had already left Junzhou City alone with the Hayabusa.

On the twentieth day of the first lunar month, Yan Shao and I, my brother, Xiao Yuan and Xiao Yatou, and two pilots were divided into a line in disguise, in the name of visiting relatives in the west.

Among the five of us, because the little girl and I could not ride horses, we all went along in carriages, and we were accompanied by two horses, just in case we needed them.

Across our ten-mile road, there are also two teams in disguise, the front line as a pathfinder, and the rear line as a trail escort for our safety, including Yan Shao's secret guards, safety can be guaranteed.

Yan Shao naturally wants to ride in the same carriage with me, Xiao Yuan has always adhered to respect and humility, and will never ride in the same carriage with us, the little girl is more and more clever, after I and Yan Shao got married, I know how to observe words and feelings, avoid suspicion in a timely manner, and settle down with Xiao Yuan early and ride in the same carriage.

The most embarrassing thing is the elder brother, every time he rides in the same carriage with us, there will be frequent coughing sounds in the car, so he shouts to get out of the car and share the car with the little girl Xiao Yuan.

It's just a moment, when Yan Shao and I opened the curtains, I saw my brother sitting alone on the horse, every time I greeted him, he had a bitter face and said: "I knew to prepare an extra carriage, the little girl over there is too noisy, Xiao Yuan is too boring, and you think I'm in the way here, alas, it's really boring." ”

I couldn't bear it, patted Yan Shao and said: "You are really, every time my brother is here, you deliberately get tired of me and stimulate him, you look at him, he is lonely, very pitiful." ”

Yan Shao snorted coldly and said: "You don't follow his way, you don't know how damaged his mouth is, he deserves to let him experience the taste of loneliness, don't worry, he is not the first day to ride a horse, I will only let him in when it is windy and rainy, hum, this is already considered to be benevolent to him." ”

"On weekdays, the two of you pretend to be an uncle and a sister-in-law, and the friendship between the two of you can be seen as thin as a piece of paper at a critical time."

Yan Shao smiled and pinched my face, then took me in his arms, kissed me a few times, and said: "Little fool, he really likes to ride a horse to see the scenery, why don't we follow the horses with us?" When you get used to it, we can also ride horses occasionally. ”

The journey of more than two months is indeed a long time, but fortunately, Yan Shao made a layout in advance, so that not only did I not feel the road, but on the contrary, it also gave me a feeling of enjoying the mountains and rivers.

If I felt a little tired or unwell, he would decide to rest for a few days, and although the journey was long, it was smooth until early March, when the climate in Xiheng had really warmed up into spring.

On the eighth day of March, we arrived at Yanzhou, the imperial capital of Xiheng, within the expected time.

As soon as we entered the territory of Yanzhou, my brother's father-in-law ordered someone to pick us up early and welcomed us to a beautiful and exquisite courtyard on the outskirts of Beijing, where the master had been waiting for us for a long time.

It can be regarded as a reunion after a long absence, and we finally met my brother's stepfather after a while, a middle-aged man with a handsome face, who seems to be gentle and secretly sharp.

"In Xia Yanhui, you have worked hard all the way, so I will first grieve you to live here for some time, and after you settle down, we will make plans."

"Mr. is polite, Mr. Lao will take care of it." Yan Shao hurriedly clenched his fists and returned the salute.

This Mr. Yan probably already knew Yan Shao's identity, looked at his brother, hurriedly saluted Yan Shao again, and said, "Wen Tian has been taken care of by the prince all these years, and I thank you here." ”

"Sir, you don't have to be polite, Wen Tian and I have been friends for many years, in fact, we take care of each other, Mr. doesn't need to say thank you."

After a little greeting, everyone took a short rest, and then had dinner, because of the bumpy and hard work, after bathing and changing clothes, I didn't wait for Yan Shao to enter the room, and fell asleep on the bed.

I woke up when it was slightly dark, and turned my head to see that Yan Shao was sleeping soundly, although he was in good health, but I also knew that he had worked really hard during this time, so I lay quietly beside him, not daring to move, for fear of waking him up.

I grew up in Xiheng since I was a child, in fact, my mood fluctuated when I entered Xiheng, but I was afraid that Yan Shao would worry, so I pretended to go straight to Yanzhou easily.

The temperature in Xiheng in March has gradually warmed, but the cold spring in the morning and evening is a familiar breath that I can feel, I close my eyes and feel as if I am in the Yuqing view.

It's an indescribable feeling of depression, as if someone will pry open my skin with a cold thin blade at any moment and take away my heart's blood.

My body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and my strong arms suddenly hugged me tightly, and I heard Yan Shao's voice still a little sleepy: "Lingyi, what's wrong?" ”

I snuggled into his arms and said softly, "It's okay, you can sleep a little longer." ”

He was no longer sleepy, the thin and light morning light spread to me and Yan Shao through the curtain, his fingers gently caressed my cheeks, and asked gently, "Do you remember something unhappy?" ”

I wanted to deny it, but I thought that he was the one who knew me best, so why should I lie to him?

So, I nodded, "The air here is depressing, and I seem to be able to smell blood." ”
