Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran nodded at him.
Li Xiaoran thought of something and said with a smile, “Don’t worry and go settle your matters! I hope we can hear good news about the two of you when we meet again! ‘
Wu Qinghe nodded and said, “I divined for you previously. No matter what happens, please believe me. As long as you believe me, a miracle will happen!”
Luo Cheng nodded and patted Wu Qinghe’s shoulder. “We’ll remember! Don’t worry! We’ll return to you guys safely!” Wu Qinghe nodded at Luo Cheng, then stood aside.
Shu Ruyue walked over and stuffed a bag to Li Xiaoran.
“I expected this. I believe some people secretly caused my departure! I’m sorry I can’t be with you when you need me the most!”
Li Xiaoran smiled when she heard Shu Ruyue’s words.
“Don’t worry, we’ll be fine! Believe me!”
Shu Ruyue nodded at Li Xiaoran.
“Come back safely. I’m still waiting for you to bring me to earn big money!” “Definitely!” Li Xiaoran smiled as she sent Shu Ruyue and Wu Qinghe off.
After watching them leave, Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng sat in the carriage again and set off for the capital.
Luo Cheng thought of something and said, “Are you worried? I should have found someone else to follow you!”
“No need. No matter how many people you find, Prince Fu will think of a way to transfer them away!” Li Xiaoran said as she opened the bag Shu Ruyue had given her.
In the bag, there were a pair of bracelets, a necklace, and a pair of earrings.
In addition to these, there was also a letter.
After Li Xiaoran opened the letter and took a closer look, she understood the purpose of these things.
“Miss Shu is really thoughtful. These things will be useful to you!” Luo Cheng said after reading the letter.
Li Xiaoran nodded. “When Ruyue gets married, we have to give her a big gift!”
Luo Cheng nodded and replied, “Of course. We have to give her a big gift!”
After sending Shu Ruyue off, Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng had lunch at a food stall in a town not far from the capital.
The official who had been following them didn’t urge them anymore. He left angrily with his group.
Seeing this, Li Xiaoran looked at these people’s backs as she said in a low voice, “They’re probably going to attack us! They pretended to be angry and left. It seems that we have to be careful!”
Luo Cheng sneered when he heard this.
“I could tell since long ago! Previously, they kept urging us, but when we were about to arrive at the capital, they didn’t urge us anymore and left angrily! There’s definitely something fishy about this! But this is good. If these people leave, we won’t have to worry about being attacked from both sides!”
After Zi Cheng and Zi Zheng heard Luo Cheng’s words, they perked up and looked around warily.
Even the food sent over from the stall was carefully tested by the group before being eaten.
After Li Xiaoran sensed the shopkeeper’s emotions and confirmed that these things hadn’t been tampered with, she finally ate them.
After eating and drinking their fill, the group found an inn to stay in.
This time, Luo Cheng didn’t plan to stay in the capital.
The capital was undoubtedly like a tiger’s den now. Even though they had made preparations previously, they couldn’t let down their guard.
‘l’nererore, LUO cneng would ratner rest In tne Inn outside tne capital tnan enter the capital.
The others also knew that this was the calm before the storm, so they had to seize the time to rest!
That night, the inn they were staying in was surrounded by a group of soldiers.
“We’re here to arrest Luo Cheng, the accomplice of the traitor, Ling Heng. Unrelated people, retreat quickly!” Torches burned and illuminated every corner of the inn.
The room where Luo Cheng and the others booked was silent. It was a stark contrast to the commotion outside.
When the leader saw this situation, he quickly sent someone up to investigate.
The guest rooms were pushed open one by one, but there was no one in them.
“What’s going on? Who lives here?” The leader called the inn’s boss over and questioned him sternly.
“I don’t know. They went inside just now! They ordered food and rested early! The other party said that they had been traveling for a few days and needed to rest well, so they told our people not to disturb them! Therefore, we didn’t go take a look. We just found out that the room was actually empty! ”
When the leader heard this, he immediately cursed and asked someone to search inside and out.
However, they couldn’t find them. In the end, this group of people could only leave dejectedly.
Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran were hiding under a bridge cave with a group of people to rest.
Luo Cheng had accidentally discovered this bridge cave when he was strolling in the capital in the past.
Previously, Zhao Xiu had been kidnapped and hidden under the bridge cave, which gave Luo Cheng some inspiration. That was why he quietly left the inn and hid in a bridge cave to rest.
The stone bridge was abandoned and a river used to pa.s.s through it.
Later on, for some reason, the river gradually dried up, so fewer people came here to fetch water, and this stone bridge was abandoned for a long time.
This place was very hidden, so it was the safest for Luo Cheng and the others to hide here.
Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran had a good night’s sleep!
The journey exhausted everyone.
If they went against Prince Fu’s men at this time, they would be at a disadvantage.
That was why Luo Cheng brought everyone to hide here for the time being. He planned to go to the capital after resting.
“Mr. Luo, as expected, someone went to the inn last night! The leader said that we’re accomplices of the Third Prince and were ordered to arrest us! What should we do now?” After Zi Cheng received the news from his buddies outside, he quickly reported it to Luo Cheng.
Luo Cheng was no exception.
Prince Fu had already exceeded his expectations by holding back until now!
Li Xiaoran thought of something and said, “We can’t enter the capital. Since Prince Fu made this move, we don’t have to put ourselves in danger anymore. Where can we go next? We can’t go to the farmstead we were hiding in last time anymore! It’s not safe since the Eldest Princess went there before!”
“Don’t worry! There’s a safe place. Don’t forget the cave you discovered last time. It’s very hidden and no one knows about it. But let me think about what we should do next!” Luo Cheng said..
