Early the next morning, Xie Chuyao set off with Qingying, and when he left, the shopkeeper specially wrapped a few white and tender steamed buns for them to eat on the road.

Xie Chuyao thanked him and also took the opportunity to check Xiao Er's pulse, but this Xiao Er's body was quite strong, so he told him to pay more attention to hygiene and rest well, so he went on the road with Qingying.

This Qingfang Town is not far from Meifang Town, because it is a neighboring town, the two of them did not hire a carriage anymore, but the light shadow took her to take the light road to take the path, and the sparsely populated path was not afraid of light work, and it was closer than the usual avenue.

It was noon when he came to Meifang Town, and Xie Chuyao was thinking about whether he should go directly to the county yali at this time? Why don't you go to the hotel first?

Qingying took her directly to the inn in the town, which was a long day's journey, and Qingying was afraid that she was also tired and panicked, so it was okay to stay in the hotel first.

Xie Chuyao first came to the counter and asked the shopkeeper if there was a guest room, and the shopkeeper immediately asked Xiao Er to take them upstairs.

The two asked for a room, and the light shadow sat in the room and asked, "What are we going to do now?" ”

Although I know that the next step is to enter the county office, how do I get in? Is it to disguise? If they are disguised as outsiders, is it necessary to disguise themselves? Qingying frowned slightly at the thought of this.

"We're going to go and check out first, and see if there's any maids out there, and then you go up and knock them out and take them out into the wild, and we can take the opportunity to pretend to be them, will this work?" Xie Chuyao also thought for a while before finally coming up with this idea.

Qingying nodded approvingly and said, "This can be had, with a disguised object, it is not easy to be debunked." ”

As she was talking, there was a sudden knock on the door, Xie Chuyao happened to be standing in front of the door, so she subconsciously opened the door, and when she saw that there was no one outside the door, she couldn't help but be stunned, what's the matter, someone knocked on the door just now?

She looked puzzled and wanted to close the door, but when she looked down, she saw the red note on the threshold.

Red note? It didn't seem to be there just now, but this suddenly appeared, did someone put it here?

Thinking of this, she immediately picked up the note, then quickly closed the door, and sat back at the table with a pensive face.

"What's going on?" Qingying looked at her with some confusion and asked.

Xie Chuyao compared the note in his hand and said, "Someone left this at the door." ”

The light shadow took it and took a look, and it was written with a brush that the person was in a ruined temple ten miles away.

Her brow furrowed slightly, who was this from? Who is in a ruined temple ten miles away? Why leave the note to them? These are all questions.

Xie Chuyao motioned for her to hand the note to herself, then looked at it carefully for a while, and finally the tense look on her face loosened and said, "I know who left it." ”

"Who?" The light shadow looked curious.

"Shang Jingcheng, I recognize his handwriting, even if he deliberately writes sloppily, I can still recognize it." When she entered the palace, she had seen his calligraphy and paintings, so she still had a certain impression of his handwriting.

The light shadow nodded clearly and asked, "So, is the person we want to pretend to be the person you are talking about?" ”

Xie Chuyao thought for a while and nodded and said, "There is a possibility." ”

"Shall we go now, then?" Without further ado, some things are better done early.

Xie Chuyao glanced at her with a chuckle and asked, "Aren't you tired?" ”

"Tired, how can you not be tired? My back hurts all the way. Qingying said as he rubbed his back.

"Then let's take a break and wait until it's past lunchtime, so we can have a meal at this restaurant first." Although there are steamed buns along the way, she can't bear to light a person who learns martial arts has a lot of food, and she eats four of the five steamed buns, and she is also hungry this time.

Qingying nodded and said, "Then shall we go downstairs or let Xiao Er come up and eat?" ”

"Let's go down and eat." Xie Chuyao stood up and said, when she came just now, she saw three or two people sitting in this shop, and if she went down to eat, she could also listen to some gossip, maybe she could hear some news.

She and Qingying slowly went downstairs, and when the shopkeeper saw them coming down, he stepped forward and asked, "Are the two guest officers going to eat?" Would you like to bring the food to your room for you to eat? ”

Xie Chuyao sat down directly in the center, and then ordered two dishes at random and let the shopkeeper go down.

There was a table of people sitting right behind the place where they were sitting, and the three people at that table looked like they were from this town, but they didn't have dark spots on their faces, and they didn't look like they were sick, so they should be relatively strong.

The three of them were all men, and they were drinking with their scalps down, and two of them saw Xie Chuyao and the two, and there was a glimmer of inquiry in their eyes.

"Hey, the third child, what do you see, now this city, there is a plague everywhere, you still want women, don't be infected and don't even cry, let me tell you, I heard that our county master also wants to run away, and even the family slaves and maids have been arranged, so he hurried to leave this ghost place!" One of the men said after taking a sip of wine.

The county magistrate wants to run away? Isn't that the purpose of their coming here in vain? Why did this man suddenly want to run?

"Oh, don't talk nonsense, I just heard my mother-in-law say yesterday, where does the county master dare to run away, now the four princes are guests in his house, he can't run if he wants to!" The other man, who had been eating with his head down, finally stopped paying attention to the food and spoke loudly.

The other two men asked curiously: "What's the matter, a prince comes to this kind of place, and there are dead people here, and he still dares to come?" Is it dying, it must be an unspoiled goods. ”

The latter words were said in a low voice, which made Xie Chuyao listen very hard, saying that this royal matter must not dare to make a loud noise, even if this whispered discussion is listened to by someone with a heart, it will be killed.

Xie Chuyao didn't expect that these four princes were still in Meifang Village, she thought that he had already left, what was he doing here? Is it really here to cure the plague? He doesn't know anything about medicine, huh?

Could it be related to the corruption case?

Thinking of this, her brow furrowed, if so, then they would have to fight fiercely.

The light shadow touched her with her elbow, and then leaned in front of her and whispered, "Why haven't the four princes left yet?" ”

Xie Chuyao didn't speak, but her eyes became a little darker.
