Wei Qing and Li Wan were not indecisive. Since they had decided, they could do it boldly.
They faced all the risks together.
Mei Ji brought the four little ones to the courtyard to play while Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting returned to the room next door.
Li Wan was in a daze.
Wei Qing pushed the wheelchair over and gently held her hand. “Wanwan, what are you thinking about?”
Li Wan regained her consciousness and pinched his slender fingers. “I was just thinking when we can reach the capital if we set off tomorrow, ?”
“Ten days,” Wei Qing said. Seeing Li Wan’s disappointed expression, he asked,
“Is Wanwan worried about me?”
“I…” Li Wan opened her mouth.” The Saint Lady Temple is so powerful. I’m afraid the Snake Bone Flower is not easy to obtain. ‘
Wei Qing smiled. “There will be a way.”
Li Wan switched from her usual shyness and took the initiative to lean into his arms. She held his hand longingly. “I don’t want to lose you again.” Wei Qing caressed her hair. “Wanwan won’t lose me. I won’t leave Wanwan.”
Li Wan closed her eyes. “Yes, don’t leave me and Xiyue behind anymore.”
Wei Qing looked at the endless night and said softly, “Okay.”
The night fell and enveloped the entire world.
In February this year, the capital was in spring, but the southern border had long entered a warm climate.
Xiao Shunyang finally shook off the bandits with his subordinates, but it was dark and they could not tell the direction at all. They were lost in the mountains. What was worse was that Wei Ting and Zhuge Qing were nowhere to be seen.
“Your Highness, did they do it on purpose?”
“That’s right, Your Highness. They were the ones who hired the robbers, right? Otherwise, why did they escape? Only the few of us are left here to feed the robbers!”
“Where did they escape to? The road guide is with us. They can’t go to the capital at all!”
Xiao Shunyang sat on a rock, a complicated look flashing across his deep eyes.
“Stop talking!”
The leader of the guards berated, and the others shut up.
Xiao Shunyang wiped the blood off his sword and suddenly sheathed it!
“Rest on the spot. We’ll find a way out at dawn.”
“Yes!”
At noon the next day, Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting arrived at Silken Cloth Manor as promised.
Zheng Hai had already arranged the household registration and travel pa.s.ses according to their specific situation.
“Young Master, you’re going to the capital to do business. I’ve already gotten someone to prepare the fabric. Someone will receive you when you reach the capital. ”
Wei Ting took the household register. “Thank you.” Zheng Hai smiled and said, “It’s my duty.”
Su Xiaoxiao said to Zheng Hai, “We’ll leave first.”
Zheng Hai personally sent the two of them into the carriage. “Take care.”
He looked at the departing convoy and muttered, “Boss, are they the people you chose? Can they… really succeed?”
Ten days later, the group arrived at the capital of the Southern Wilderness.
It was getting late, and the city gate was about to close.
“Don’t close, don’t close, don’t close!”
Fu Su drove the carriage all the way and braked at the city gate. Fortunately, Yuchi Xiu was not around. Otherwise, he would have fallen like a big toad again.
Fu Su jumped off the carriage. “Officers, we want to enter the city.”
A guard said bluntly, “Come back tomorrow!”
“Make an exception.” Fu Su took out the silver.
Who would have thought that money would not work?
“Yo, what’s wrong with the two of you? Why did you stop our carriage?”
Accompanied by this delicate voice, an extremely charming woman slowly alighted from the second carriage.
She was wearing a bright purple dress with wide sleeves. Her waist was soft and slender, and she was unbelievably proud.
Her half-covered lapel, hidden by the thin veil, displayed her charm to the extreme.
The two guards were instantly stunned.
Mei Ji’s folding fan half covered her face as she said charmingly, “Sirs, I want to enter the city with my family. Can you do me a favor? Is it convenient?”
The two of them nodded repeatedly. “Convenient! Convenient!”
“Thank you.”
With that, Mei Ji turned around and ended the business in a second. She rolled her eyes and got into the carriage.
After entering the city, they had only taken a few steps when someone really came to receive them.
He walked forward and stopped Su Xiaoxiao’s carriage. He asked, “Excuse me, are you from Phoenix Town?”
Wei Ting lifted the curtain and sized him up. “Yes.” The man said again, “Do you have a token?”
Su Xiaoxiao handed the jade thumb ring to Wei Ting.
Wei Ting showed him the jade ring.
The man hurriedly said, “Please follow me!”
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “How did you recognize us?”
The man smiled. “I recognized the carriage of the Silken Cloth Manor.”
Zheng Hai prepared a cart of goods for them. The carriage looked ordinary, but there were patterns and emblems on the canopy that only they could understand.
Su Xiaoxiao nodded slightly and sat back in the carriage.
The man had ridden over. He mounted and led the way.
The capital of the Southern Wilderness was bustling with activity. There were rows of shops, and the streets were filled with hawkers and endless pedestrians.
They were busy checking in and did not have the time to admire the night scenery of the capital of the Southern Wilderness.
The man led them through the busy long street into a secluded alley and dismounted in front of a courtyard at the end.
The man’s name was Deng Huan, and he was Zheng Hail s distant cousin.
Before they set off, Zheng Hai ordered someone to send him a letter. He already knew the purpose of their trip.
He pushed open the courtyard door and said, “Boss bought this courtyard three years ago. The original layout was not like this. Boss got someone to change it. This place is not far from the Cheng family, so it’s convenient.”
How old was the Head of the Secret Service three years ago?
Seventeen?
At that time, he had already developed his faction to the capital of the Southern Wilderness?
Could it be that he had been playing this game of chess with the Cheng family since three years ago?
The courtyard had been changed to the second courtyard of the Great Zhou. There were a total of six rooms and two study rooms, enough to accomodate them.
Deng Huan even prepared two servant girls. “Young Masters, Madams, don’t worry. They’re trustworthy.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Thank you.”
Deng Huan said, “I’m at the coffin shop ahead. Call me if you need anything.”
Su Xiaoxiao was stunned. “Your boss sells coffins?”
Deng Huan smiled and said, “Boss said that coffin shops are taboo. Ordinary people won’t go threre, so it’s convenient to do things and stay out of sight.” ‘l’nat was true. In a Place 11Ke tne capital wnere every mcn or lana was expensive, any shop was precious.
If business was too popular, people would covet it. If there was no business, people would also covet it.
Only a coffin shop was not robbed.
Su Xiaoxiao expressed that she had learned again. Based on the Head of the Secret Service’s unique way of thinking, he would have been a big shot in her previous life.
Su Xiaoxiao and Li Wan accepted the two maidservants.
Wei Qing and Li Wan lived in the east wing of the second courtyard. The two of them originally planned to ask for the west wing, but Wei Qing was not in good health, so Su Xiaoxiao insisted on giving him the best room for lighting and ventilation.
Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao stayed in the west room with the three little ones.
Mei Ji lived in the small west room next door.
The others stayed in the rooms in the front row.
The three little fellows were tired today and went to bed early.
She was going to the Cheng family tomorrow morning, so Su Xiaoxiao quickly went to rest.
Just as she lay down, she remembered something.
The third brocade bag!
