CHAPTER XVI

Ye Feng left Yuanfeng County on the third day of destroying the Jinsha Sword Sect. In the previous three days, even though he had kept a low profile, he was still invited by the county guard and the heads of the five major families.

Faced with one banquet after another, Rao is Ye Feng was extremely bored in his heart, but he didn't want to show anything.

It wasn't until last night that Xu Longyang personally came to the door and informed him that a caravan was going to Putian County tomorrow, and Ye Feng got rid of the complicated entertainment.

It was a caravan of nearly a hundred foot merchants. In addition to the dozen wagons of the footmen, there were two extravagantly decorated carriages.

One of the carriages was personally prepared by Xu Longyang for Ye Feng and He Huan, while the other carriage was the car of a young lady from an official eunuch's family.

Xu Longyang told Ye Feng that the young lady from the official eunuch family was also preparing to go to Putian County. The two sides had the same purpose, and he could not refuse the request of the other party to accompany him, so he could only let him go with him.

Regarding the extra young lady of the official eunuch family in the entourage, Ye Feng was not disgusted. It's just that what made him cry and laugh the most was Xu Longyang's expression when he said that he was accompanied by Miss Guan.

It was clear that Xu Longyang was the person in charge of Long Yang's operation, but he asked Ye Feng's opinion on everything. So much so that when he said that he was accompanied by Miss Guan, Ye Feng had a feeling that Xu Longyang was not informing him, but obtaining his consent.

On the sixth day of Ye Feng's arrival in Yuanfeng County, he finally set off for Putian County, where the Zangke Mountains were located.

As the mighty convoy walked out of Yuanfeng County, there were loud shouts on the wide trade road.

In order to make Ye Feng's walking comfortable and reassuring, Xu Longyang deliberately sent out the escort team with the most sensible and strongest force.

As soon as the convoy left Yuanfeng County, the captain of the escort team, who was tall and burly, with a beard on his face, drove his horse to the carriage where Ye Feng was.

"Mr. Ye, we are now out of Yuanfeng County, and we are expected to be able to reach the boundary of Donghe County in the afternoon. If you don't have any opinions, let's go to the Lantian Post Station, where Donghe County is located, to rest, and continue tomorrow. Captain Bearded stood outside the carriage and said respectfully.

For Captain Hu's request, Ye Feng felt very helpless.

No matter how much Xu Longyang attaches importance to him, he should not be so popular. Moreover, acting in a high-profile manner has never been Ye Feng's style.

"Captain Zhan Peng, you are the captain of the escort team, you can arrange the routine of the caravan, and you don't need to ask me for instructions in the future. Ye Feng sat in the carriage and said in a low voice.

Outside the carriage, the beard nodded respectfully. He said no more, but raised his whip and urged his horse to march quickly forward.

In front of the carriage where Ye Feng was was driving, there was another official lady's car.

The driver of the car was a middle-aged man wearing a black felt hat and a blue jacket with a gloomy face.

Hearing that Zhan Peng asked the carriage behind him for directions, the coachman, who was covered with a felt hat covering half of his face, couldn't help but show a hint of surprise in his eyes.

As far as he knew, Long Yang was running on the major trade routes of the Yin Shang Kingdom, and they were all very famous. He really couldn't think of how noble the identity of the person sitting in the carriage would be, and he would actually ask the captain of the escort team that Long Yang was escorting to ask for instructions everywhere.

The coachman was puzzled, the beaded curtain of the carriage was lifted, and out of it came a young and beautiful maid with a very thin mouth, and at first glance it was a girl with sharp teeth and sharp mouth.

The maid glanced at Zhan Peng, who was galloping by, and then at the carriage behind her, which was almost as luxurious as her own carriage, and couldn't help but show a trace of anger on her face.

"This Zhan Peng is too ignorant, why, the people in other people's carriages are VIPs, and the young lady in our carriage is not noble enough?"

She was about to say something, when suddenly, a low shout came from the carriage behind her.

"Lianqiao, okay, what's worth complaining about this kind of thing. If you don't feel comfortable riding in a car, go down and ride a horse. "The whispering in the carriage was very crisp, like a lark, pleasant to the ear.

Hearing the scolding in the carriage, the maid Lianqiao stuck out her tongue and quickly got into the carriage.

Around the carriage, several foot merchants passed by. Hearing the sound of warblers in the carriage, the wolf light radiated from his eyes at the same time.

Although they didn't see the appearance of the person who spoke, they thought that the voice was so beautiful, and the appearance was naturally not too bad. And those businessmen know that the maids and lotus are so gorgeous, wouldn't the young lady in the carriage be even more beautiful.

A good merchant grabbed the escort and asked who was inside the two luxurious carriages.

Hearing that the escort said that the carriage where the Lianqiao maid was located, it was the family members of the Yin Shang Guozheng Yipin Seniors, and those merchants couldn't help but be shocked.

The official who is worthy of the first product of Yin Shang is the prime minister of Yin Shang State who is under one person and above ten thousand people. There was no need for an explanation from the escort, and the merchants knew that the ladies in the carriage were not something they could think about

I heard that the female dependents in the previous carriage were the family members of the prime minister, and those businessmen were more interested in the carriage that Ye Feng was riding.

According to the number of etiquette, the more noble the status, the lower the position when driving.

Although the escort always refused to reveal who was riding in the latter carriage, those merchants who traveled all guessed that the identity of the people in the latter carriage must be even more extraordinary.

Who will be the one who can make the prime minister's daughter bow down? Some businessmen speculate that it is the prince of Yin Shangguo.

It's just that when they thought that the prince would be escorted by the royal guards, they overturned this speculation.

The small episodes during the march brought a touch of fun to those who were on the road.

Along the way, from time to time, merchants gathered and whispered about the identities of the people in the two carriages.

After a morning of continuous marching, the caravan finally left the boundary of Yuanfeng County and entered the territory of Donghe County.

On the official road ahead, a lonely post station waiting on the side of the road appeared in front of everyone.

In front of him, the flag hanging above the post station, Zhan Peng, the team leader who escorted the trip, couldn't help but let out bursts of shouts.

"Listen, everybody, and in a moment we'll go into the post house ahead and rest. Replenish food for those who are short of water, and replenish food for those who are short of food. After this station, it will not be until the evening that we will rest again. ”

As Zhan Peng shouted, the foot merchants and the men who escorted them all shouted.

The crowd hurried forward and rushed forward like crazy, and in a blink of an eye they came to the outskirts of the station.

Longyang runs all year round on the major trade roads of the Yin Shang Kingdom, and is very familiar with each post station.

After the post station guys saw the banner of Long Yang's escort, they hurriedly greeted him and led the escort everyone's cars to the stable.

Arriving at the gate of the post station, Zhan Peng jumped off his horse. Handing the reins to an escort man, he walked quickly to the front of the carriage where Ye Feng was.

"Sir, please come down and rest for a while. Although the conditions of this inn are simple, the food is not bad. Zhan Peng said respectfully.

Inside the carriage, Ye Feng, who had been meditating cross-legged, opened his eyes.

Nodding at He Huan, he lifted the curtain and walked out of the inside first.

As soon as Ye Feng appeared, the eyes of many businessmen were all bet.

Seeing a young teenager walking out of the carriage, the foot-walking merchants couldn't help but be stunned.

"Could it be that the people riding in this carriage are really the princes of Yin Shang Kingdom?" everyone speculated in their hearts, looking at Ye Feng and He Huan's eyes, they couldn't help but be full of fear.

Ye Feng got out of the car first, and He Huan got out of the car one step later, which gave everyone around him an illusion that He Huan was the real owner of the car.

Looking at Ye Feng with an approachable smile on his face again, while He Huan kept his face tense, those businessmen who thought they were well-informed all believed their guesses.

The tea room of the post station has prepared a lot of pastries and drinks, but because there are not many people in the post station, the pastries and tea need to be picked up by the guests themselves.

After sitting down in his seat, Ye Feng glanced at the pastry counter, stood up, and walked over.

His move once again made the surrounding foot merchants believe that Ye Feng was just a subordinate who served left and right.

Ye Feng came to the pastry counter, picked up the tray, and put the pastries.

On his side, a burly man wearing homespun clothes saw Ye Feng picking exquisite pastries, and couldn't help but say, "Young man, your master is not good at serving, right?"

Ye Feng was slightly stunned, and immediately understood what the strong man meant.

He did not plead, but picked up a piece of pastry again and placed it in the tray.

Ye Feng's indifference made the strong man snort dissatisfied. The strong man grabbed a plate of pastries casually, poured them all into his bag, snorted coldly again, and turned to leave.

After the strong man left, the little maid Lianqiao also came over with a dinner plate.

When she passed by Ye Feng's side, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"Hey, that kid, whose family are you, why haven't I seen you in the Imperial Capital City before?" said Lian Qiao proudly.

Facing Lianqiao's questioning, Ye Feng couldn't cry or laugh.

He had never been to the Imperial Capital City since he was a child, so how could Lianqiao have seen him.

Seeing that Ye Feng didn't speak, Lianqiao's mouth pursed. She pointed to the clip in front of Ye Feng and said, "Boy, hand me that clip." ”

For Lianqiao's command, Ye Feng didn't take it to heart. He casually handed the clip to Lian Qiao, turned around and walked towards his seat.

As soon as he took two steps forward, Lianqiao's shout came from behind him again.

"Boy, you wait for me for a while. I didn't see what I was holding in my hand, so come over here and help me get some. As she spoke, Lian Qiao couldn't help but put the tray in her hand in Ye Feng's free left hand.

Faced with Lianqiao's actions, Ye Feng shook his head helplessly.

He didn't say much, and brought the plate to the coachman who had entered the post station with Lianqiao.

When he walked to the coachman's side, Ye Feng's hair suddenly trembled slightly, and then his pupils suddenly contracted into a needle.

It was in this plainly dressed coachman who half of his felt hat covered his cheeks that he felt an extremely strong murderous aura.

If it weren't for his instincts telling him that the murderous aura on this coachman was not directed at him, he would definitely mistake this coachman for a killer hiding in the caravan.

"This is what Lian Qiao asked me to bring over. Ye Feng put the tray on the table and said in a low voice.

After saying this, he glanced deeply at the coachman who didn't even raise his head again, and then turned around and walked in front of He Huan.

In front of the coachman, Lian Qiao came over with tea and pastries.

Seeing the pastries on the table, she pursed her lips and smiled, and said crisply: "That kid is not bad, he actually helped me deliver the pastries." ”

The coachman, who had always bowed his head and remained silent, suddenly raised his head.

A knife-like gaze swept Lianqiao, and then he whispered, "Qiao, don't underestimate that young man just now." If I'm not mistaken, he's about the same strength as me. ”

The teacup in Lianqiao's hand fell on the table, and her face turned pale.

She couldn't be clearer about the strength of the coachman, she never thought that Ye Feng, who seemed to be approachable, would be a master swordsman.

"Oh my God, what did I just do? I actually instructed a master swordsman to serve me a plate. Lianqiao clutched her chest, her heart full of fear.
