Although Xia Changyuan rejected the eight people, they still followed them from a distance.

This is the official road, and everyone can walk it.

Xia Changyuan can use his identity as the crown prince to drive them away, but he doesn't want to disturb the people, that would be too conspicuous, those few people can't come to disturb them, just follow.

But they didn't dare to relax, they kept guarding against these people, the spirit of the heart was highly concentrated and nervous, and they didn't take those people seriously, anyway, they have been following for so long, and they don't seem to be able to do it.

On this day, a dark cloud slowly covered the sky.

It rarely rains in autumn, Xia Changyuan didn't care very much, and continued to hurry, waiting until the dark clouds were getting thicker and thicker, and the day almost turned into night, and then he decisively ordered to find a place to hide from the rain.

If you don't have a store in front of the village or behind the store, where can you hide from the rain?

Broken temples are not found anywhere, so he had to order his followers to find a big tree and set up a tent as fast as possible to avoid it for the time being.

There are many people who are easy to do, and a few tents were set up before the rain, Xia Changyuan pulled the small fish to hide in the tent, and the raindrops of beans smashed down.

Many of the entourage didn't have time to hide in, and they were drenched in a cold heart.

This is not possible, in case of repeated cool breezes, people can easily get sick.

Xiao Yu'er shouted loudly in the tent, "Hurry up and hide from the rain, it's okay!" ”

A group of people left four people to guard in the four directions, and then took shelter from the rain.

"Brother Yuan, it's August weather, why is there such a heavy rain?" Xiao Yu'er gathered her clothes, a little cold.

Xia Changyuan took out a cloak from his luggage and draped it on Xiao Yu'er, "Is it still cold?" ”

"It's not cold." Xiao Yu'er smiled at Xia Changyuan, "You can wear one more yourself." ”

"I'm a man, I'm not afraid of the cold." Xia Changyuan was not as bold as Lin Ye and them, although he confirmed the relationship, he was still polite, at most he was just pulling a little hand, not as bold as Xiao Yu'er, so he just gently wrapped Xiao Yu'er's hand, "Is it warm." ”

The man's big hand was too warm, and Xiao Yu'er was reluctant to let go, "My hand is very cold, don't let go." ”

"Okay."

At this moment, there was a sound of metal colliding outside, followed by the attendant shouting, "Protect your master!" ”

Xiao Yu'er's spirit suddenly became nervous, "Brother Yuan." ”

"It's okay, I'm here."

In fact, Xiao Yu'er was not afraid of danger, but afraid that Xia Changyuan was in danger.

Not to mention that she cares about him, just because of Xia Changyuan's identity, she can't relax.

In the past, when I saw Xia Changyuan standing at the door of her house, I knew that no matter how much Xia Changyuan stood up, there would be no danger.

It's different now, they have already encountered a sneak attack on the road, in case something really happens to Xia Changyuan, I'm afraid that Empress Sun will go crazy, and then there will be an endless war between the Sun family and the Li family.

Both of them are big families with a pivotal position in the Great Xia Kingdom, and in case they fall into a scuffle, in the end, it is the people who suffer from the Great Xia Kingdom.

Although she is just a girl, her father taught her since she was a child that it is her responsibility to rise and fall in the world, and she also has the responsibility to maintain the country.

So Xiao Yu'er thought a little far ahead, and said, "Brother Yuan, if something happens, you must protect your own safety first, I can protect myself." ”

"What stupid are you talking about? There will be no danger, you have to believe them, in fact, they are all trained by my uncle for me, and they are all masters who can fight one against ten, besides, if there is danger, I will run first, what qualifications do you have to be your man! You can't say such stupid things in the future, you know? ”

"Hmm." Xiao Yu'er promised on her lips, but in fact, she didn't think so in her heart, in case the time comes, what should be done.

The shouts became louder and louder, and finally a subordinate reported to Xia Changyuan, "Your Highness, the thief has been taken down, please instruct!" ”

"Hold it for now." Xia Changyuan didn't mean to go out and take a look.

Xia reported loudly outside the tent, "It seems that it is a nearby bandit, and those eight people have been robbed." ”

Xia Changyuan frowned, not believing this result.

Now that the Great Xia Kingdom is peaceful in the world, there are very few bandits.

But there is no evidence, people insist that he is a thief, and he can only kill people at most, and it is impossible to uproot Li Guifei.

Besides, it is not easy to support a family, Xia Qingtian wants to keep the Li family to contain the Lin, Sun, and Yang families, and it is impossible to abolish the Li family easily.

Xia Changyuan was aggrieved, but he didn't dare to touch the Li family for the time being.

Xiao Yu'er proposed, "Otherwise, we use poison, my mother said, and no matter how tight your mouth is, you can't last more than three days under her poison." ”

Xia Changyuan shook his head, "Let's go back to the capital, I don't need it for the time being." ”

The sound of the rain gradually subsided, and the outside slowly quieted down, and it took a while before I heard the sound of someone talking.

Probably been together for too long, Xiao Yu'er heard that it was those peers, and asked, "What happened?" ”

"They said that we saved them just now, so we didn't come to thank them, master......"

"It's okay, it's the same with you." Small fish.

But there seemed to be a voice from outside that insisted on thanking her in person, and Xiao Yu'er felt a little annoying, a little too scoundrel.

Xia Changyuan was very helpless, "Ask them where they are going?" ”

"They said to go to the capital." ”

"So coincidentally?" Xiao Yu'er frowned, "Let's go around the corner and go to Maicheng." ”

If those eight people still insist on going to Maicheng, there must be a problem, no matter what they say, they must strike first and control the people.

There are people from a pharmaceutical factory in Maicheng, and Xiao Yuer took people to play in Maicheng for two days before going on the road, but those people didn't follow.

But after walking for two days, I met those people again, and they ran over excitedly, "Great, it's really great to meet you again, you don't know, when you are not there, we are so worried that we don't dare to make a sound when we walk, for fear of startling the thief!" ”

"Take it for me!" Little fish doesn't listen to what you explain.

Xia Chu looked at Xia Changyuan with some hesitation, and the latter just nodded, signaling him to listen to Xiao Yu'er in everything.

Dozens of followers quickly tied up eight people.

They lay on the ground and shouted, "What are you doing! ”

"You're breaking the law by doing this!"

"You can't tie us up!"

Xiao Yu'er ignored it and let the entourage drag them on their way with ropes.

She didn't believe it, these people's fox tails don't show out!

What Xiao Yu'er and Xia Changyuan didn't know was that when they passed by the next town, there were two people at the tea stall on the side of the road who saw this and talked in a low voice, "Change your plan." ”

"How? Do you want to do it in advance? ”

"No, let them be tied up in the capital, and then mobilize the power of public opinion to accuse the prince of being cruel and unkind, and killing innocents indiscriminately."

"I see, I'll find a way to inform them."

……

After walking for two days, these people were not in good spirits, but they didn't say anything, only occasionally said one or two, "If you are worried that we are in danger, you can tie us up and take us to the capital, and when you arrive in the capital, just return the things to us!" ”

"Actually, that's not bad, at least someone protects us."

Xiao Yu'er almost doubted her judgment, but her mother told her that a person's sixth sense is very important, and intuition these people are not good things, so follow intuition and continue to tie up.

But all the way north, the closer she got to the capital, the more Xiao Yu'er doubted her judgment, could it be that she really misunderstood these people, they really just wanted to have a companion along the way?

Calculating the itinerary, you can reach Los Angeles in two days, and I didn't go to the city tonight, and a group of entourages got busy, setting up tents and cooking and cooking.

Xiao Yu'er stood beside Xia Changyuan, "Brother Yuan, did I do something wrong?" ”

"Don't think too much about it." Xia Changyuan said, "Even if you do something wrong, they can reach the capital safely, and they will be grateful to you." ”

"Brother Yuan, your comforting words are really clumsy, how can you be grateful to me, I tied them up!"

"But they can only get to the capital safely by following us, not to be grateful for what we are." Xia Changyuan deliberately said this, so as not to burden Xiao Yu'er's heart.

Xiao Yu'er grabbed his arm, "I said Xia Changyuan, in your heart, am I so stupid?" ”

Xia Changyuan smiled, "Who said that my little fish is the smartest person in the world, how can he be stupid?" Let's put it this way, if they are really just passers-by, they will indeed be grateful to us for being able to return to Beijing safely.

If it's all just a conspiracy, they just want to use this opportunity to show everybody how brutal and indiscriminate I am, but they'll say, "Won't I say it?"

Let's just say that these people attacked me, and I caught them, and when the time comes, there are many of us, and no evidence can be made. ”

Although Xiao Yu'er rarely plays such scheming, it doesn't mean that she can't play, she has lived in the capital since she was a child, and she has seen a lot of such things, and she can understand it a little, "That's good, in this way, when we almost arrive in Los Angeles, we will let them go, and they won't admit the previous things, what can they do with us." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, you have a good plan, I have a wall ladder, everyone will see.

The day before entering Los Angeles, Xiao Yu'er asked the eight people to be released, and said blatantly, "Before, you yourself asked to be tied up and follow us on the road, but now you are about to arrive in Los Angeles, there can be no thieves on the road from Los Angeles to the capital, you are safe, and the luggage will be returned to you, you can go." ”

The eight people were a little dumbfounded, but they quickly reacted, and one by two hurriedly knelt down, "Thank you, Miss, you are a good person!" ”

Xiao Yu'er laughed, "Indeed, we are good people, I hope you can still say this when you enter the capital!" ”

"Definitely, definitely, I will tell all my relatives that you are good people, but...... I've been walking together for so long, I don't know what to call the two? ”

"My name is Chivalrous Girl, no thanks."

Xia Changyuan doted on the naughty girl, took her hand and entered the city, and no longer paid attention to the eight people.

When they entered Los Angeles, the faces of the eight people suddenly became gloomy, and they walked to the woods to the side and put their heads together.

"We've been tied up for more than a month, and that's it?"

"That's it, the task assigned by the boss has not been completed, do we still have a way to live?"

"Why don't we run away."

"Hey, my relatives are in their hands! If only every master was like the crown prince. ”

"Yes, although we were tied up all the way, we didn't have anything to eat and wear!"

"Shut up! Why don't you remember that he tied us up, let me tell you, if you dare to be soft-hearted, your family will die, I don't want my family to die miserably! ”

"But what can we do now?"

"When we got here, they loosened our bonds, which means that they have let down their guard against us, and we will find another chance to meet tomorrow morning, and go back to Beijing with them, and kill them when they see the opportunity on the way!"

"There are dozens of them, and there are only eight of us, how is it possible!"

"I have a repeater, I'm at the back, kill that woman first, the prince will definitely be in chaos, and then the opportunity will come!"
