Now that the weather was getting colder, he was blown away by the wind when he went out, shivering from the cold, and then went back to put on more clothes. After finishing, he hurried to the inn, and when he arrived, the sky was bright.
He didn't eat breakfast for fear of being late, and the area was very desolate. There wasn't even a breakfast stall, so he could only squeeze in with the servants and eat steamed buns and porridge.
After finally finishing his drink, the palace guards came out for some activities. He ran over and asked, and the captain of the guard coldly replied: "The prince is resting."
Well, the prince has been on the road for two days and had a drink with Mr. Xu last night. He will probably get up late today.
County Magistrate Lin looked upstairs and asked, "Aren't Mr. Xu and the two young ladies getting up too?"
If the prince hadn't been here, how could the captain of the bodyguard have paid attention to a small county magistrate? Hearing his question, he turned around and said, "How do I know?" and then walked away.
Naturally, County Magistrate Lin did not dare to argue with him. He thought to himself, it is really strange. Let’s not talk about Mr. Xu and Miss Xu. Before, Miss Xu San went out to play early every day, riding around and shooting.
Any practice of riding and shooting is just a lie! She is a little girl, and practicing riding and shooting is just for fun!
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a scolding voice in my ear: "Hey, don't block the road in front of me, please give way."
When he turned around, he saw that the Xu family's guards were coming out carrying something.
Magistrate Lin had no choice but to get out of the way. Then someone called him to get out of the way again. After repeated calls, Magistrate Lin had no choice but to squat outside the door like the guards.
"What are they doing?" Magistrate Lin muttered.
The catcher squatting next to him said: "It seems that they are packing their luggage and pushing the car out."
When County Magistrate Lin saw that it was true, he was overjoyed.
"Great! I'm finally leaving!"
No wonder Miss Xu San didn't come out today and was busy packing her luggage, right? Come on, hurry up, he's going to cry if he doesn't leave. He really can't afford to serve these little ancestors.
At noon, people finally appeared.
The guards of the Xu family pushed the carriages out one by one. Sisters Xu Yin got on the carriage, and Xu Ze and Li Wen rode in front.
Li Wen asked: "Where is the second Young Master Yan?"
Xu Ze said "Oh" and pointed back: "Over there!"
Li Wen took a closer look. He was sitting next to the driver of the Xu sisters. Although he was dressed like a Jianghu man, he didn't look out of place. But after all...
"Isn't this inappropriate?" Logically speaking? Xu Ze, the elder brother, didn't have any objections, so he couldn't say more? But Li Wen still couldn't help but ask.
He could tell last night that the second Young Master Yan was here for Miss Xu San. His father invited Miss Xu to Dongjiang? It was to prevent the two families from forming an alliance. He and Miss Xu? Yan Ling and Xu San
Miss, one of them must fail. So when he learned Yan Ling's identity, he was very wary, always feeling that this kid would cause harm.
Xu Ze didn't care: "Don't pay attention to him. He came here by force."
"Isn't this not good?" Li Wen probed. "Young Master Yan is coming to Dongjiang? You are a guest after all."
Xu Ze muttered, "What kind of guest is he? We don't want to take him with us, but he is so shameless that he insists on coming."
Li Wen felt happy. So, Miss Xu San didn't mean that? After all, Yan Ling had helped them, and they couldn't drive them away out of favor. Is everything okay? As long as he is firm enough to deal with this matter early
Is it settled? Second Young Master Yan cannot do anything to destroy it.
Huh? Realizing what he was thinking, Prince Li was stunned. Wasn't he still considering the marriage? Why did he look like he had decided?
He couldn't help but turn back. Over there in the carriage? Xia Zhi seemed to have missed something, so he hurried back to get it. Xu Si raised the curtain of the carriage window and shouted at her back: "Look carefully twice? Did you drop it under the noodle stand?"
Okay. Just forget about it if you don’t have it? It’s not that important.”
Xia Zhi said "Hey", her steps finally slowed down, and she was no longer so panicked.
Xu Si was satisfied and was about to put down the curtain when he met Li Wen's eyes. She nodded and smiled at him politely and put down the curtain.
Li Wen couldn't help but think of last night——
After hearing what he said, Xu Yin said: "Prince Li, your situation is too difficult, isn't it? The ministers that your father relies on have second thoughts. There is a thief in the palace, and even your future concubine has evil intentions. It's simply
Make enemies everywhere."
"Miss Wei Si is not my future heir apparent." Li Wen corrected him and continued, "Miss Xu San, don't be so exaggerated. It's just someone coveting the throne of Dongjiang and colluding with his subordinates to seize the title. Lu Changshi is my father
The king's confidant is true, but as long as Governor Yang comes back, he will not dare to act rashly."
Governor Yang. Oh, Yang Gu!
Xu Yin remembered that Yang Du was in charge of Dongjiang's military affairs and was the most trusted minister of Dongjiang King. Lu Changshi was a true confidant, but Yang Gu was the pillar of Dongjiang.
However, he was later killed by Li Da. In order to negotiate peace with Jiang Yi, he killed Yang Gu. As a result, he was completely defeated and the Li clan was destroyed a few years later. It can be said that he suffered it himself.
"Then when will Governor Yang come back?"
Li Wen did not answer. Jiang Yi has recently been practicing naval training vigorously, and Yang Gu is staring at the opposite side of the camp along the river. This is a major matter related to the survival of the Dongjiang River and cannot be recalled easily.
He said: "Miss Xu San, most of the officials in Jiangdu are loyal to my father. There are only a few who have problems. I ask you for help because I don't want to make the matter worse and alarm my father."
He knew in his heart that his father did not have many days left.
Xu Yin asked: "Then what do you want us to do?"
Li Wen said: "I think if they want to kill you, they probably don't want me to have Nanyuan's help. In this case, when you get to Dongjiang, they will definitely try their best to interfere with this matter."
Xu Yin understood: "You mean, we will be used as bait to help you fish out people?"
Li Wen nodded.
Xu Yin frowned: "This is a bit difficult. If they failed this time, they won't do it easily next time."
Li Wen said: "It's not difficult. If the marriage between our two families is confirmed, they will definitely not be able to sit still."
So, how to convey the illusion to them? Xu Yin pondered.
Before he could come up with an idea, he heard Xu Si say: "Ayin, I'll do this!"
…
Li Wen withdrew his thoughts from his memory, took a deep look at the carriage, and turned around to prepare for the return journey.
When Xia Zhi came back, Wei Jun shouted: "Let's go!"
The motorcade moved forward slowly along the official road.
After these plague gods were finally sent away, County Magistrate Lin burst into tears and shouted loudly: "Good riddance to the Crown Prince! Good luck to Young Master Xu! Have a good journey, both ladies!"
Seeing him chasing and shouting at the same time was really touching.
"I finally left." In the inn, the long-term worker breathed out a sigh of relief.
The boss nodded, looked at each other, and sat down together.
These days, they are always on tenterhooks, fearing that their identities will be revealed, and now it's finally over.
After a while, the boss struggled to get up: "Let's go back, the master should..."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly noticed two more people in the lobby.
Their appearance is ordinary, but they are strong in stature and have shining eyes, so they are obviously masters.
"Where do you want to go back?" One of them smiled, showing his strong white teeth, "Take us to see you too!"
