Leaving the palace (five watches)
When everything went smoothly out of the capital, Shen Wan leaned closely on Xi Chao in the carriage, and Xi Chao also hugged her tightly, and went out of the capital to the south, all the way to the night, when the carriage stopped.
It turned out that he had already arrived at the water's edge, and Xi Chao explained: "I'm afraid that the fourth brother will send someone to chase after him, so let's take the waterway!" ”
Shen Wan nodded, the two got out of the carriage and got on the boat, the ship was an ordinary cargo ship, and there were other people on board, and the ship was loading when they arrived, so no one paid much attention to them.
Entering a cabin, because of the carriage for a day, Shen Wan only felt tired, lay down, took out a slip from her arms, and said slowly: "It's time for me to go back to the palace!" ”
Xi Chao lay down beside her and asked, "What! ”
Shen Wan closed her eyes and said: "In less than half an hour, Chu Xichen should know that I am not in Prince Zhong's mansion, and you are not here, he will know what happened, so ......"
Xi Chao was silent for a while, and said, "It's okay, the ship is gone!" After a pause, he said: "Ming'er, let's go another way, only the two of us, the fewer people, the less people will notice!" ”
Shen Wan's snort gradually stabilized, thinking that she had fallen asleep.
Xi Chao helped her tuck the quilt, and she felt sleepy, so she also closed her eyes, although she was asleep, she still had a trace of clarity.
Sleeping in the cabin, you can feel the hull of the ship swaying gently, as if sleeping in a cradle, and in a short time, the ship has sailed into the middle of the river, floating in the vast night.
On the second day, as soon as the sky was bright, the boat stopped on the shore, and Xichao took Shen Wan off the boat, and the two could only go to the tea shed on the side of the road to have breakfast.
Xi Chao took out the tea leaves he brought from his baggage and said to Xiao Er: "Wash the cup and use this tea to brew!" ”
Shen Wan saw that it was the silver tooth of the snow mountain, thinking that the two of them were usually used to it, and when they came out, they were afraid that it would not be so convenient, and the food was not as good as before, so she smiled and said: "Why did you bring the tea too, are we fleeing or playing in the mountains and rivers?" ”
Xi Chao smiled and said, "I'm afraid that you won't be used to eating the tea next to you, so I brought it here!" ”
Shen Wan smiled at him gratefully, and said: "Actually, these are not bad, I think that the days when I was in the cell that day, I don't know how many times better than the food I ate at this time!" As she spoke, she shook the custard bun in her hand, which was also brought by the court.
Xi Chao held Shen Wan's hand and said, "Ah Wan, don't worry!" I will definitely let you live a good life in the future, and I will not let you suffer again! ”
Shen Wan pursed her lips and smiled, and took a bite of the bun. Although it had been overnight, she still ate it slowly, one bite at a time, with freshly brewed tea.
Although there are good tea leaves, the water is ordinary water, not as good as the mountain spring water used in the palace, although the taste is a little worse, but in the face of the cherished dynasty, she also feels a little warm in her heart.
"How's that, it's okay to eat!" Xichao asked with concern.
Shen Wan smiled and nodded, and said, "But cherish the dynasty, you were the prince before, and now you are the prince, I want you to accompany me to spend the days of wandering the world, don't you feel hard?"
Xi Chao shook his head and said, "How come, as long as I can be with you, it doesn't matter how hard the days are, not to mention, I won't let you live hard days!" He looked at the river and said, "Let's take the land route later, the river is too unsafe, there may be pursuers, and we won't be able to enter the gate of the southern country!" ”
Shen Wan was shocked and asked, "What, you want to go to the southern country!" ”
Xi Chao said: "Well, the south and the north can be said to be well water does not interfere with river water, and there is not even trade and trade, but the north does not dare to easily cross the river to attack the south, one is that the northerners are not familiar with the water, and the other is also afraid that the army going south will attract the west to take advantage of the situation, therefore, let's go to the south is the only way!" ”
"But ......"
Xi Chao patted the back of her hand and smiled: "Don't be afraid, with me, I have my own way, I found a road, you can reach the south without crossing the river, and then we will find a way to sneak into the city!" ”
Shen Wan was still worried and said: "I naturally believe you, but after all, we northerners and southerners are different, what if we are recognized?" ”
Xi Chao smiled: "What's this? When we enter the northern country, it is the original people of the southern country who rule, but the royal family of the southern country retreats to the south of the Yangtze River, and the northerners and southerners also intermarry each other, and my mother is originally a southerner! ”
Shen Wan smiled: "No wonder you look so handsome!" ”
Xi Chao also smiled and said, "Ah Wan, are you slender and weak?" As far as I know, the Prime Minister was originally from the South, and your mother is the young lady of the Langya Wang family, so the Langya Wang family has a great relationship with the royal family of the Southern Kingdom? ”
At the mention of her parents, the look on Shen Wan's face dimmed, and she hurriedly said: "Don't talk about this, just don't worry, we won't be discovered, as long as we can go to the south!" ”
Shen Wan nodded softly, and after the two of them ate something, they packed up and went on the road.
After walking for about half a month by land, I turned to a mountain, passed a stream in the mountain, went to the lake that went downstream, and walked a few days by water, and then I could reach Jiangnan.
After spending the night in the ancient temple in the mountains, Shen Wan woke up in the morning, but she couldn't find Xichao, she was now wearing men's clothes, so she went to the temple to look for Xichao, and happened to meet the abbot who was doing morning classes.
When the abbot saw her, she bowed first, and then asked anxiously, "I wonder if the abbot has ever seen a friend who stayed with him last night and stayed in the next period!" ”
The abbot carefully examined her appearance, because it was late last night, so he did not see it really, but when he saw it today, he was immediately shocked, and immediately folded his hands and recited the Buddha's name: "Amitabha...... The donor fruit is extraordinary! ”
Shen Wan was anxious to find the court, so she didn't ask much, but he didn't see it, so he wanted to look elsewhere, but when he left, he heard the little novice behind the abbot ask the abbot: "What did the master say just now?" ”
The abbot said: "The face of this benefactor is very human, it can prosper the country, it can determine the world, Amitabha, and the four kingdoms are expected to be one......"
Where can Shen Wan care about his nonsense, and finally found Xichao at the gate of the mountain, and said angrily: "Where have you been, I have been looking for you for a long time, and I have heard the abbot here talking nonsense!" ”
Xi Chao smiled: "If the monks don't speak, how can they talk nonsense?" ”
Shen Wan pouted and looked very unhappy, touched her head dotingly, and said with a smile: "I went to see the terrain, here you can only use a bamboo raft to go down the river, I just went to ask the people in the mountains to buy a bamboo raft, let's have breakfast, let's go down the mountain!" You have to bring enough dry food, but these days, you have to be on the water! ”
Shen Wan said with a smile: "It's okay, the food in this temple is not bad, I have been more and more like a common person for more than half a month!" ”
The two talked and laughed for a while, went to the temple for breakfast, gave some sesame oil money, and then set off again.
