Chapter 339: They're on their way

"You seem to have been worried lately." After thinking about it for a while, Chu Ruoyan still asked this question, he wanted to know what Li Luobing was thinking, only by knowing her inner thoughts could she not be so worried.

Li Luobing looked at Chu Ruoyan and wanted to shake her head, but she knew that it was not what she really thought in her heart. She was indeed worried, worried about the future of the Yan Wangfu, worried about the safety of the two people, and worried about whether they would be able to adapt to life after arriving at the border.

And when they went to the border this time, there was nothing extra at all except for the goods they brought with them and some silver tickets.

Seeing that Li Luobing didn't speak, Chu Ruoyan also knew that she was acquiescing.

"Don't worry, everything will be fine when you enter the city." He tried to say a few words of comfort, but the carriage stopped.

"What's going on?" Chu Ruoyan immediately got up and walked out of the carriage and asked Guo Dong and the others.

"Your Highness, my subordinates just went to the front to explore the way, if we go a little longer, there will be no inn, we can only spend the night on the road, we might as well rest here for the night, and then leave the next day!"

"Okay, let's rest here for the night." Everyone went to stop the carriage, and Chu Ruoyan and Li Luobing walked down from the carriage and came to the house that could barely be called an inn.

Chu Ruoyao pushed open the door, and after entering, he learned that there were only three rooms here, he counted the number of people in his entourage, and the three rooms could barely fit in, so he directly gave the silver to the shopkeeper.

When he saw Chu Ruoyao giving out the silver, Li Luobing felt distressed for a while. They have been spending money now, but they don't have any income at all, when Chu Ruoyu was in Dali Temple before, he still had Yulu every month, but this time he was relegated to the border, I don't know when Yulu will come to his hand.

Xiao Er left after cleaning up the room, Chu Ruoyan and Li Luobing walked into the room and sat at the table to rest, Li Luobing opened the baggage, counted the remaining silver tickets, and carefully loaded them back.

After seeing her movements, Chu Ruoyan opened her mouth and asked, "How many silver taels do we have?" ”

Li Luobing shook his head: "It's not much, and these silver taels will have to live in Chaoyang City for a long time, after leaving here, we don't need to stay in the guest house, we can just rest in the carriage for the night." ”

Seeing Li Luobing's insistence, Chu Ruoyan also nodded in agreement with her statement. In the middle of the night, not long after the two of them fell asleep with their clothes, Chu Ruoyao suddenly sat up.

"What's wrong?" Li Luobing was also awakened by Chu Ruoyao's movements.

"Don't talk yet, I always feel like there's something wrong out there." Chu Ruoyao motioned to Li Luobing not to make a sound, and the two of them got dressed and stood up quietly.

Chu Ruoyao walked to the door and listened to the movement outside, and then came to the window and quietly looked out, and saw several figures in a trance on the tree opposite the inn. He rubbed his eyes, and when he looked up again, the person was gone.

"It doesn't seem normal, there's not even a sound of breathing outside, it's too quiet." Chu Ruoyao said with a frown.

Although this inn is small, there are not a few people inside, if you can't even hear the sound of breathing, then there must be something someone secretly doing, and then think of the previous Li Luoxia and Chu Ruoyang things, except for the army, it is basically certain that these people are coming for themselves and Li Luobing.

He really thought well, and before he could make any further moves, there was a rhythmic knock outside, which was the secret signal of the knock he had discussed with Yang Zhen before.

After hearing the knock on the door, Chu Ruoyan let Yang Zhen in.

Yang Zhen's tone was very hurried: "Your Highness, Princess, you have to leave this room temporarily, your subordinates and others have already discovered the traces of the secret guard outside the inn, and the shopkeeper of the inn has been stunned by them with *." They haven't done it yet, they should be waiting for a suitable moment. ”

"It's too late to leave now, have you arranged all the people outside?" Chu Ruoyan asked Yang Zhen.

"The people outside are all arranged, and no one will be hurt."

"Alright, you find a place to hide in this room, and we'll wait for them to come to the door."

"Waiting to come to the door? No, it's too dangerous. After Yang Zhen heard Chu Ruoyao's words, he immediately began to object.

"With the efforts of his subordinates, he should be able to let His Royal Highness and the princess leave here temporarily and avoid their pursuit."

"Where can you hide? Their target is us, and if we don't find our trace in the inn, they won't give up, and they won't stop hunting for us. Chu Ruoyao didn't consider Yang Zhen's words at all.

"Don't say it, they're coming, hurry up and find a place to hide." After Chu Ruowei finished talking to Yang Zhen, she pulled Li Luobing back to the bed.

The two of them lay on the bed, pretending to be asleep, but under the quilt, Chu Ruoyan kept comforting her when she was holding Li Luobing tightly.

"When someone comes in for a while, you hide in the innermost, here are me and Yang Zhen, you will be fine." Li Luobing shook Chu Ruoyao with his backhand, indicating that he knew.

The two of them held their breath and stared, pretending that nothing had happened, and after a while, they heard the door ringing, and Chu Ruoyan felt that more than two people pushed the door and walked in.

It should be okay outside, it's okay, the people outside have been stunned by me, and the whispered conversation between these two people was all heard by the two people who pretended to be asleep on the bed, in their ears.

"Let's do it, I'll have to go back and report when I'm done, don't waste time here."

After the two of them finished speaking, they walked towards the bed, the sword in their hands had just been raised, Chu Ruoyi got up and controlled the sword in their hands, and before they could react, Yang Zhen, who was hiding in the corner, also rushed out and fought with them.

These people were also taken aback, they thought that their movements were silent, but they didn't expect that King Yan didn't fall asleep at all, and they were prepared, they gritted their teeth, and could only fight with Chu Ruoyan and Yang Zhen hard. Li Luobing shrank in the corner of the bed and listened to the sound of Chu Ruoyao's fight, in addition to being nervous, he was more worried.

When the two were fighting, the other guards outside also heard the movement here, and hurriedly ran over to reinforce Chu Ruoya, these people saw that they had lost the upper hand, and immediately left here through the window and disappeared into the night.

Yang Zhen wanted to go out to chase them, but was stopped by Chu Ruoyao.

"Forget it, don't chase it, let them go back first, let's set off overnight, don't stay in the inn, lest they come back in a while." Chu Ruoyao stopped Yang Zhen and said.

Everyone began to pack up their things, and quickly left the inn after cleaning up, and when they left, the shopkeeper had not woken up, Chu Ruoyi put some silver in the shopkeeper's place as compensation for the damage.

A group of people were moving forward rapidly in the night, and Chu Ruoyan and Li Luobing were sitting in the carriage, and such a fast speed had to be maintained until dawn.

Those guards will not give up, after this matter is returned, they will definitely tell Li Luoxia and Chu Ruoyang, and it is very likely that new people will be sent at that time, if they still stay in the inn, they may not be able to escape.

When they were advancing rapidly here, several guards had already returned to Li Luoxia and Chu Ruoyang.

"How's it going?" Li Luoxia saw that the guards had come back so soon, and she still had some doubts in her heart, had she already solved King Yan and Princess Yan?

"Did you get it?" Seeing that the guards didn't speak, Li Luoxia asked again.

The guard shook his head: "The subordinates are incompetent, and they don't know where the news leaked, so that Yan Wang and the others were prepared, and they were discovered by him when they were about to succeed." ”

"Didn't succeed?" Li Luoxia was very angry after hearing his words, if she didn't succeed this time, the next time it wouldn't be a sneak attack, they would definitely make adequate preparations to protect themselves, and it would be very difficult to start.

"It's all a bunch of rubbish! Give me back at once, and follow them until I kill them. Li Luoxia roared angrily.

Chu Ruoyang, who was next to him, saw that Li Luoxia was so emotionally out of control, so he opened his mouth to persuade her.

"Since this time they have made a move, don't do it so quickly next time, they will definitely be prepared, if the interval is too short, they are doomed to fail."

"But seeing that they are about to arrive in Chaoyang City, if they don't act again, what chance will they have in the future?" Li Luoxia opened her mouth to retort.

"At least don't do it today, they will definitely be very vigilant in the next two days, and when they think we won't do it in a day or two, another surprise attack may be successful." After listening to Chu Ruoyang's words, Li Luoxia felt very reasonable, so she agreed to him.

The guards breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this. Fortunately, there is no need to be punished now.

The sky was gradually getting brighter, and on the way to Chaoyang City, the speed of Li Luobing and Chu Ruoyao and his party gradually slowed down, and in the middle of the night, in order to avoid pursuit, they traveled very fast, and they did not rest all the way, and they did not stop until dawn.

"Your Highness, there are about four or five days left before we arrive in Chaoyang City, we have been on the road all night, let's rest here!" Guo Dong came to the side of the carriage to report the situation to Chu Ruoyao.

Chu Ruoyan looked at everyone's expressions and was a little tired, so she agreed to rest here. After Guo Dong left, Chu Ruoyao took out dry food from his baggage and handed it to Li Luobing.

"I haven't rested all night, so let's eat something quickly!" Li Luobing spent the whole night in fright, and it was only now that her mood relaxed a little, but she knew that the road ahead would not be so peaceful.

She took the thing Chu Ruojiao handed over and ate it in a big gulp. After eating, Li Luobing got out of the carriage, she sat in the carriage for too long, and her legs were a little numb.
