Chapter 29: People are stupid

In the early morning of the second day, as soon as the drum arrived, a two-horse carriage quietly drove out from the back door of the eldest princess's mansion, and it was Han Zai wearing a yellow mask who drove the car.

"Uncle Han Zai, let's go out of the city from Tonghua Gate, we should be able to catch up with Brother Wen's convoy." Qingluan lifted the corner of the curtain and whispered to Han.

She left a letter on the pillow of the bed this morning, telling Yuzhu Ziyu not to tell her mother, only saying that she went to the Qingliangshan Courtyard, and asked them to go to the courtyard for a month after waking up, and then go there to pick them up and return to Beijing when she returned.

Yuzhu and Ziyu were used by her last night, and it is estimated that they should be able to wake up in two hours.

I hope that if they don't hide it from their mother, they won't be punished.

She didn't tell Han Zaiming what was going on to chase Li Wen, for fear that this high-level martial artist would know the reason and refuse to help her.

When Li Wen is picked up and escorted to Qidi, she will go back to Beijing to ask her mother for her guilt.

Han didn't squeak anymore, only whipped his horse and drove towards the east gate.

Chongmingfang, where the eldest princess's mansion is located, is located in Dongcheng District, not very far from Tonghua Gate, and in less than half an hour, the carriage drove out of Tonghua Gate.

At this time, Li Wen, who had already left the city, was on horseback, with more than 30 horsemen and guards and three carriages, and hurriedly went northeast along the official road.

Qidi is more than a thousand miles away from Luojing, and it will take more than ten days to reach it quickly, and if there is no accident, he will arrive in Qidi in late August at the latest.

I was worried all the way, and from time to time I would think of Jianing's words yesterday in my mind.

If his father was really murdered as Jianing said, then his journey would definitely not be peaceful.

If something happens to him on the way, the concubine will be heartbroken.

In the palace of King Qi, his father has more than one son, and there are two who are not much different in age from him, but those two are just concubines.

The mother concubine has written in letters over the years to say that his two cousins are also quite stable and polite, reading and writing every day, and they have not shown any ambition.

The palace is also quiet, the father is obsessed with cultivation and health, and the sons in the family are also cultivated with their minds, and his concubines have also stopped competing for favor, and are dedicated to pleasing and serving their mothers.

The eldest brother is now eighteen years old, and the younger brother is fifteen, and because he is not married, their family affairs have also been postponed.

Li Wen couldn't think of anyone who would intend to murder his father and himself.

Thinking back to yesterday, Jianing cried and told him not to go, and his heart was soft.

Shaking his head and sighing softly, he ran wildly with his whip.

Jianing and Xiao Hou's wedding date is scheduled for April next year, he and her are destined to be impossible to be together, so why bother yourself.

However, my heart is still sour.

All day, the team hurried on their way, and finally arrived at a post station at dusk.

Qingluan's carriage also arrived near the inn shortly after, stopping next to a caravan outside the inn.

It is not uncommon for business travelers to stop near the inn. Civilians did not have the right to enter the post station to rest, but this did not prevent them from camping and resting next to the official post station.

Qingluan was dressed in a black short, and his hair was also pulled into a man's outfit, covered with a green cloth turban, covering his forehead, and at first glance, he looked like a handsome underage boy.

She handed Uncle Han Zai a package containing cakes and water bladders, and said flatteringly: "Uncle Han Zai, for you, let's eat this first today, and then buy some others to take with us when we meet villages and towns." ”

Han glanced at her again, stretched out his hand to take the package, and without saying a word, he walked to the side of the tree, sat down by the root of the tree, ate the cake, and drank a few sips of water.

Qingluan took out a blanket from the carriage, jumped out of the car, and gave it to Han Zai courteously.

"I'm sorry Uncle Han Zai, I'm ...... I was also worried that Wen Shizi would have an accident, so I tricked you into coming over to help me......"

Han glanced around again, and saw that no one was peeping, so he said in a hoarse voice, "In that case, why don't you join Li Wen's team?" ”

Qingluan was stunned, lowered his head and said, "I'm afraid that Brother Wen will drive me back." ”

In fact, because the time was too rushed, she hadn't figured out how to help Li Wen survive the disaster, so she could only follow secretly for the time being.

In the previous life, it is said that Li Wen and his entourage were plotted by thieves near Shigu Mountain, and dozens of servants and guards were killed, and none of them survived.

Qingluan thought that the assassination of Li Wen's master and servant must not be something that one or two bandits could do, and those hidden perpetrators must first make a good design and wait for Li Wen and his party to enter the urn.

Then, together with Li Wen's team, there is no doubt that the target is the biggest and the most dangerous.

She could only find an opportunity to quietly persuade Li Wen to transfer flowers and trees.

Han snorted again, stopped talking, picked up the blanket and wrapped it around his body, and ignored her.

Qingluan returned to the carriage, touched the bow and arrow hidden in the carriage and a three-foot-long sharp steel knife, and checked the sweat medicine and wound medicine she had collected these days, put it together with a few changes of clothes and some silver taels, and tied a package on her back.

He also had a dagger tied to his calf, which was so good to stuff into his boots, and he also wore a soft armor vest in his shirt to protect himself properly.

It's all the credit of her tidying up and working all night last night.

It's okay to save people, but it's okay to let her take her own life.

She also thought about it, in case the enemy was very strong, she and Uncle Han Zai couldn't deal with it, so she had to run away first.

Qingluan pulled the blanket in the carriage and wrapped it around her, leaned against the wall of the carriage, closed her eyes and rested.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day was just dawn, there was already movement on the side of the post station, and Li Wen's team began to set off.

Qingluan was suddenly awakened by the noise around him, and he probed out of the carriage and found that Uncle Han Zaishu had already fed the horses and was setting up the carriage.

He threw her a large package and said in a hoarse voice, "You can wash the dry food and water I exchanged with the caravan, and you can wash up in the car." ”

Qingluan was a little embarrassed, and said in a low voice: "Thank you, Uncle Han Zai, I'm ...... I'll go to the toilet first. ”

By the time Qingluan sat back in the carriage again, Li Wen's convoy had already gone away.

Qingluan's carriage walked right between the caravan and Li Wen's convoy, keeping a short distance.

Maybe it was because he was too anxious and tired yesterday, and Li Wen's team was a little slower today.

During the break, Qingluan once asked Han Zai to cover his face and quietly threw a paper ball to Li Wen, warning him to pay attention to the suspicious people he encountered on the way.

Next, Li Wen's team was indeed much more cautious, and they were no longer in a hurry, and stopped when they arrived at the post station, waiting for the next day to leave.

Finally, on the third day, Han Zai, who was sitting on the wheel, told Qingluan, "They found our carriage." ”

Qingluan lifted the curtain of the car, and sure enough, she saw two guards riding horses and running towards her.

"Who is Your Excellency? Why do you always follow us? One of the guards asked politely.

At this time, Han Zai was wearing a hat on his head and a green cloth towel around his face, and he couldn't see his face clearly. He glanced at the guard coldly and didn't say anything.

Qingluan had no choice but to say in the carriage: "We are in a hurry to go to Qidi relatives, and we did not follow you." ”

The other guard sneered, pulled out the long knife at his waist, pointed at Han Zai and said, "I don't care where you go, if you dare to follow us again, you can be careful of the little life you are waiting for!" ”

Qingluan sighed secretly, lifted the curtain of the car and said to the two of them, "Let your sons come and talk." ”

The two guards were stunned for a moment, but they felt that the lady in front of them dressed as a man was very familiar, and they didn't remember where they had seen it for a while.

"Please come and speak." Qingluan had no choice but to repeat, "Don't let others know." ”

A guard had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly remembered who this little lady was, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "It turned out to be the county lord of Jianing, why are you ......?"

Not long after the guards went back, Li Wen urged the horse to come over, and when he saw Jianing in the carriage, he was surprised and delighted, "Jianing, why are you here?" ”

Han Zai secretly rolled his eyes, and said in his heart, his own county lord is stupid, but he didn't expect this Li Wen prince to be even more stupid.

It's been three days, only to find that there is a carriage following behind, but he has also gone to throw a note before, if not, it is estimated that he will not find that there is someone behind him when he arrives in Qidi.
