When the sun was waning, Zhao Wanning and his party finally arrived at the post station.

Although it is a post station, there is no shop in front of the village here, and the conditions are limited. There are only two upper rooms, one for Zhao Wangshu and Zhao Wanning. There are three rooms, one room for the silver candle, the picture screen and Ah Tao, two rooms for the maids brought by the eldest princess, and the rest of the guards and the Imperial Forest Army are arranged by Qi to stay.

It was said to be the upper room, but the room was a little more spacious than the other rooms. Qi Chuan sent someone to inform the post station in advance, and the two upper rooms had been cleaned, and the bedding and other supplies had been replaced with brand new ones.

The room was a little basic, but it was clean and tidy.

The eldest princess Zhao Wangshu has traveled abroad for many years, she has eaten a lot of hardships, and when she goes out with the master, she can't live in the post station, the master and she are not people who are greedy for pleasure, and they don't have much requirements for accommodation, just find some clean and tidy inns at will, and sometimes even sleep in the wilderness.

The experience of traveling abroad has also made the eldest princess develop an uncritical character, although she seems to be the noble princess of Chaoyang, she does not like extravagance. Even the Grand Princess's Mansion in the capital is mainly practical.

Zhao Wangshu was more worried about Zhao Wanning. Although she is not favored in the mansion, after all, she grew up in the eldest princess's mansion, and she has never suffered from food and clothing since she was a child.

Zhao Wangshu accompanied Zhao Wanning into her room.

Zhao Wanning has never left the capital in his previous and present lives combined, nor has he lived outside the eldest princess's mansion and other courtyards. It was her first time staying at a caravanserais, and everything was new to her.

"Don't you feel shabby?" Zhao Wangshu looked at Zhao Wanning and said.

Zhao Wanning was checking the plant in the room.

Many flowers are planted in the garden of the Eldest Princess's Mansion. Knowing that she likes to look at flowers, she filled the vase with flowers in the Inviting Moon Garden. Sometimes it's peonies, sometimes it's rhododendrons, and the colorful flowers decorate her room, and it's pleasant to look at.

But this station doesn't have that kind of conditions. Although flowers are beautiful, they are easy to wither and wither. Especially in the depths of winter, where can you find flowers in full bloom?

There was a potted plant on the table in the room, and the shape of the potted plant was very peculiar, and Zhao Wanning had never seen it. She leaned in to take a closer look: "What is this?" It's rare to see a patch of green in winter. ”

Zhao Wangshu raised his feet and walked to her side, and glanced at the potted plant casually, the leaves of the potted plant were like copper coins, irregular and round, and they were still green and vibrant in this winter.

"It's copper coin grass." Zhao Wangshu said.

"It's cute." Zhao Wanning praised, she carefully traced the lines on the leaves with her fingers, looking happy.

Seeing her like this, Zhao Wangshu couldn't help but ask, "What do you think of the environment of this station?" ”

Zhao Wanning looked puzzled and said, "What's the matter?" This station is okay. ”

"You came with me, and if you are not used to living there, tell me. After all, I took you out of the capital, so I naturally have to take care of you. ”

Zhao Wanning sneered: "It turns out that you are worried that I will not be able to get used to it." ”

Zhao Wanning walked to the edge of the bed and sat down in a few steps. The bed looked very narrow, and the futon on the bed looked new, but the material and workmanship of the futon were naturally not as good as those in the Princess's Mansion.

Zhao Wanning lay back casually and rolled comfortably on the bed. She was exhausted after a day of riding in the carriage, and her shoulders hurt and her waist hurt. It's still comfortable to lie in bed.

"You can accept you as a princess, what can't I not adapt to as a county lord?" Zhao Wanning muttered: "I came with you this time, and I have long been mentally prepared." This is just a hurry, waiting for Qingzhou...... That's an uphill battle. ”

The silver candle and the painting screen were still waiting in the room, so Zhao Wanning didn't say it directly. In her dream, Qingzhou was almost in ruins, and the houses had been washed down and were still under construction.

Compared with Qingzhou, the conditions of this post station are very good.

Zhao Wangshu nodded approvingly and said, "That's good, I'm still worried that you won't be able to adapt to it." ”

Zhao Wanning sat up suddenly, unconvinced: "Don't treat me as a person who can't endure hardship." I know that in your eyes I am a waste county lord, but I also want to do something, I can also endure hardship, and what you can do, I can also do. ”

Zhao Wangshu walked to her side and sat down in a few steps: "I was wrong before, and I have always regarded you as the same as other imperial sisters." Maybe from the time you were willing to pick up those children late at night and send them to Jishan Hall, no, maybe earlier, I should have seen you clearly. ”

"But it's not too late."

"That's nature." Zhao Wanning said proudly: "This girl can do anything." Someday something great will come and surprise you. ”

Zhao Wangshu was amused by her statement.

I don't know if Zhao Wanning has noticed that after leaving the Eldest Princess's Mansion and leaving Jingcheng, she has become cheerful and likes to joke, and she looks vibrant.

The dinner at the inn looked a little shabby, but they did their best. Dinner is mostly some rural game, although it is not as good as the delicacies in the palace, but it also has a unique flavor.

Zhao Wangshu and Zhao Wanning ate in the room.

After they were full of food and drink, Zhao Wangshu retreated.

"I sent someone to tell you the day before yesterday that I want you to prepare some underwear and luggage alone, are you ready?"

Zhao Wanning hugged the teacup and nodded: "I have listened to what you said, and the luggage you carry is ready, but do you have any plans?" ”

Zhao Wangshu was silent for a while before he said, "There are still some medicinal materials that need to be purchased elsewhere. Would you like to come with me? Or do you want to follow the Imperial Forest Army to Qingzhou? ”

"Okay, okay." Zhao Wanning's eyes lit up and said excitedly: "I am willing to join you!" ”

"Actually, I've wanted to go north and south for a long time, just like you did when you went out to travel, but I never had the opportunity. I thought that when I went to Qingzhou this time, I could only follow the official road step by step. I didn't expect you to be willing to take me out to play. ”

Seeing that she was so excited, Zhao Wangshu said helplessly: "Don't be excited, listen to me, I'm not going to play." You follow me, but you can't get in the carriage. ”

"Do you know how to ride a horse?"

Zhao Wanning shook his head. Before the young princess left, the Marquis of Zhenbei once taught her to ride a horse. But she was too young to learn. Later, the Marquis of Zhenbei left the Eldest Princess's Mansion, and no one taught her to ride a horse anymore.

Zhao Wangshu said again: "Then are you willing to learn?" First of all, horseback riding is hard. You follow me...... It's going to be harder. ”

thought that if she said this, Zhao Wanning would retreat.

But I didn't want Zhao Wanning to smile when she heard this: "It's better if you're willing to teach me how to ride a horse." If I had learned to ride a horse, I would have been able to ride a horse to the ends of the world. ”

Zhao Wangshu put his mind at ease and continued: "That being the case, tonight, you bring your luggage, and the two of us sneak out of the post station at night." ”

"Do you want to go at night? Don't you say a word to Qi Chuan? Zhao Wanning asked in surprise.

"If you tell him, do you think he'll leave the two of us alone?" Zhao Wangshu looked at Zhao Wanning's eyes and said, "I have ordered my maid." Tomorrow there will be two maids dressed as you and me, and they will bring hats, and the two of them will follow the main army. ”

sub-hours.

Zhao Wanning and Zhao Wangshu successfully evaded the inspection of the Royal Forest Army and slipped out of the post station.

Zhao Wanning, led by Zhao Wangshu, walked north, and then found a horse in the forest.

"You don't know how to ride a horse yet, so let's ride the same horse first. When I teach you how to ride a horse, you'll have one on your own. ”

Zhao Wanning nodded, she didn't know anything, she naturally obeyed Zhao Wangshu's orders, and she was the only one who obeyed.

Zhao Wangshu turned over, got on the horse neatly, and his posture was as light as a wild goose, and then he stretched out his hand to pull Zhao Wanning up.

Zhao Wanning was very envious when she saw it.

"Don't be envious, you can do it when you learn it. You put on your hats. After the horse runs, the wind will be very strong. ”

Under the silent moonlit night, a black horse galloped on the road. There were two figures, one red and one black, sitting on that horse, and they snuggled tightly and were intimate.

On the second day, a woman wearing a hat walked out of Zhao Wanning and Zhao Wangshu's room.

Qi Shen looked at the two women wearing hats with some surprise.

"I've seen the princess of Chaoyang, and I've seen the lord of Qinghe." Qi Shen saluted respectfully.

The eldest princess of Chaoyang did not speak, but the maid beside her explained: "Captain Qi, the weather is dry and dry, the eldest princess and the county lord of Qinghe were a little angry after dinner yesterday, it is not suitable to see people, and it is not appropriate to speak, and I hope that Captain Qi will not be surprised." ”

"But the eldest princess has already commanded, and after breakfast, we will set off for Qingzhou. The specific matters are arranged by Qi Duwei at his sole discretion. ”

"Qi Zheng commanded."

The cook of this post station is said to be from Shuzhong, and his cooking is more inclined to the flavor of Shuzhong. Maybe it's not to the appetite of Zhao Wanning and the two of them.

The diet in Shu is spicy, some people can't eat the food in Shu, their throats will be so hot that they can't speak, and some will even have some acne on their faces.

When Qi Chu was in the army, he saw a comrade, who couldn't eat spicy, and when he ate spicy, he would have acne on his face.

Maybe the eldest princess and the county lord of Qinghe also belong to people who can't eat spicy.

Qi Zhen remembered that his comrade's face had also grown a lot of acne, the acne was red and swollen, and some of them would suppurate, itchy and painful.

He was uncomfortable with a seven-foot man, and he didn't know how Zhao Wanning, a delicate and frail golden branch and jade leaf, could endure it?

Qi thought for a moment and took out a box of ointment from his sleeve. This ointment is not an ordinary ointment, but a gift from the divine. This ointment is very precious, has an excellent hemostatic effect, and is said to be beautiful and beautiful. The Holy One also rewarded him when he saw that he had made military merits.

Qi thought that since this ointment can beautify and nourish the skin, it should also be able to cure acne.

Qi drove his horse to Princess Celestia's carriage.

"Eldest princess, Lord Qinghe." Qi was in place to have etiquette, knowing that the two nobles were speechless at this time, he continued: "I heard that the faces of the two nobles ......"

There is no woman who doesn't care about her appearance, thinking of this, Qi Chuan quickly intercepted the conversation, and after a moment of silence, he continued: "The minister has a box of ointment here, which is said to be beautiful and beautiful, and I hope that the nobles will accept it." ”

There was no response in the carriage for a long time.

Qi thought for a while and said, "Two nobles, please rest assured, this ointment is a gift from the Holy Heaven, and although the minister carries it with him in case of emergency, he has never used it. ”

"Now we still need to hurry, and the next stop, Cloud City, is far away, and we can't find a doctor for a while. The nobles can use this ointment to relieve it first. ”

As soon as Qi Wei's words fell, a slender jade hand lifted the curtain and stretched out. Looking at the color and style of the sleeves, it should be Zhao Wanning.

Qi poured the ointment with both hands respectfully. When he looked up, he glanced at it, only to see that the wrist of that hand was as white as the moon.

She is not Zhao Wanning!
