In the morning of the next day, Ji Chen planned to leave.
Wen Renyao has the most bags, Lu Ji and Jiang Li are nothing, not to mention Lin Yao.
The carriage was sent by general Wu Wei. Knowing that Ji Heng was in Huangzhou, he deliberately found a big carriage and asked them whether they needed soldiers and horses to protect their safety along the way. Lu Ji politely declined.
The carriage is very spacious. Jiang Li and Wen Renyao sit inside, and Wen Renyao still holds Lin Yao. Lu Ji and Ji Heng were outside, and they didn't know what they said to general Wu Wei. When hearing that the curtain of the carriage was lifted at a distance, general Wu Wei also glanced curiously into the carriage. He probably knew that there was a woman sitting in the carriage, but he didn't know what his identity was or what his relationship with Ji Heng was. He felt curious.
Wen Renyao put down the curtain of the carriage, and soon Ji Xuan and Lu Ji also got on the carriage. Zhao Ke and Wen Ji took the coachman, and the carriage went outside Huangzhou City.
After hearing that Lin Yao was coaxed to sleep by people Yao, he lifted the curtain of the car, and Jiang Li also looked out along it. I remember when I first arrived in Huangzhou City, the outside of the city was lively and clean. Many people came into and out of the city, but now there is no one. Even the land seems to have turned scorched black. The ground was full of scattered arrows and swords, as well as human bodies, piled on one side at random, and I didn't know whether it was the city guard or the king.
The blood gas lingered for a long time, and the air was full of palpitating smell. Through these in front of us, it seems that we can see the tragic attack of the king's army that night. Although Huangzhou City was held in the end, it was by no means easy.
The atmosphere became a little heavy. Hearing that people were far away, he put down the carriage, as if he wanted to find a happier beginning, looked at Jiang Li, and said to Jiang Li, "Hey, Miss Jiang, your face seems to be much better."
Jiang Li reached out and touched her face, saying, "it seems so."
After such a long time, the erythema on her face gradually disappeared from the medicine that the man and woman gave her. In addition to looking closer, there are faint red marks, but if you look further away, it's no big deal, and you can hardly see it.
Ji Xuan smelled the speech and also looked at Jiang Li. He smiled Yingying, but Jiang Li was quite uncomfortable. He sat opposite Jiang Li, as if he could see everything. Jiang Li avoided his eyes and pretended to lower her head unintentionally.
"It's really great," said Wen Renyao with beaming eyes, "looking at the second young lady's return to her former beauty, my heart is really happy for the second young lady."
Such glib words, if spoken by the man next to him, I'm afraid I'll scold dengtuzi. But after getting along with Wen Renyao for a long time, I know that this man is just a little talkative, with no doorkeeper on his mouth, but not a bad heart. Jiang Li had no choice but to laugh or cry.
"However," Wen Renyao looked outside again and said, "we shouldn't meet the soldiers of King Cheng on our way?"
Jiang Li asked, "haven't they gone?"
"I don't have to go together. Maybe I'll meet some stragglers." Lu Ji said, "Zhao Ke and Wen Ji are walking on a small path, which is unlikely to happen."
"No matter," Wen Renyao said, "you let me follow you. You have to be responsible for my safety... And the safety of Miss Jiang Er, right?"
Lu Jibai glanced at him: "I know."
Next, the four people were speechless. Jiang Li could feel Ji Heng's eyes on her, with some examination, which made her feel very uncomfortable. But there was only one carriage, and there was no way to escape. She couldn't help regretting that she had already strongly demanded two carriages, no matter who she was with, as long as she wasn't in the same carriage with Ji Hong. Ji Chen's eyes are too poisonous and she looks at things too thoroughly. Even if Jiang Li can't hide it for long. When he knows his secret intention, he doesn't know what will happen.
Besides, the matter of mind is like the flower with the butterfly lying prone. The fragrance of the flower can't be suppressed. When others pass by, they can immediately smell the fragrance of the flower. How can they hide it?
Fortunately, Ji Heng is a smart man, and his mind will not be easily known. If he doesn't say it, Jiang Li pretends not to know. Wen Renyao is a big hearted person. He will talk about other things in a moment. Lu Ji was better at talking than Jiang Li imagined, with witty words. Even Lin Yao who woke up later was also attracted by Lu Ji's words.
The road back to Yanjing is smoother than expected.
Zhao Ke said that if you hurry in the daytime, you can arrive about the seventh day. The first two days passed safely. On the third day, the carriage continued to move forward, no different from before.
From Huangzhou to Yanjing, there are fewer and fewer families except outside the city gate. In addition, in order to avoid the soldiers of King Cheng, Zhao Ke and his wife took another path, almost to the mountains. On the third day, it was almost completely a wilderness, with no village in front of it, no store behind it, and nothing at all.
Hearing people look outside for a while, he said, "I'm afraid I'll stay in the mountains today."
Jiang Li doesn't feel much.
Hearing her indifferent appearance in the distance, people asked, "Miss Jiang Er, why aren't you surprised to stay in the mountains tonight?"
"There are no other Inns here. There are people in the mountains, but they may not be found. It's easy to get lost by blindly looking for people. Compared with them, living in the mountains is a good choice." Jiang Li replied, "it's just that it's too dangerous to make a fire at night. For fear of attracting evil people, you'd better rest on the carriage."
She didn't feel hard, but said it naturally, which made people look at her strangely and don't know what to say for a moment.
Ji Hong smiled, as if she knew it clearly. Originally, when she was in Tongxiang, Xue Fangfei and Xue Zhao went hunting in the mountains together. Sometimes when it was over, she couldn't go home, so she made a fire and slept under the tree for a night. There are no evil people in the mountains of Tongxiang, only wild animals, and the fire is only to expel those wild animals.
At this time, Lin Yao's stomach "Gulu" shouted, and Lin Yao said, "sister Jiang, I'm hungry."
Jiang Li took out some dry cakes and water from the bag and handed it to him, saying, "eat some."
It was also noon, but there were no inns in front of and behind. It seemed that even if you walked a long way, there would be no inns. Today is definitely not in the store to eat, can only eat dry food. Jiang Li also distributed the dry food to Lu Ji and others. Zhao Ke and Wen Ji also stopped the carriage and took a rest here for a while to eat something.
Everyone got off the carriage.
Ji Heng also held dry cakes in his hand. Jiang Li thought that a person as picky and delicate as he was would probably not touch the dry food. Jiang Li wanted to see what he ate. Unexpectedly, he directly picked up the dry food and put it to his mouth and ate it slowly.
Jiang Li was stunned.
This person's elegance is engraved in his bones. Even if he eats a piece of dry food, he is leisurely and leisurely, as if he is eating something delicious in the world. Jiang Li stared at him and forgot to eat the food in her hand. Ji Chen noticed her eyes and looked at it. She was stunned and suddenly laughed. He said, "what do you think I do?"
"Nothing." Jiang Li lowered her head and ate her own.
Wen Renyao ran over from the grass and complained, "this dry cake is really terrible. Is there anything else to eat?" He suddenly thought of something, "Hey, second lady, don't you know how to roast deer and make crows and birds? There are many rabbits and birds in the mountain. Why don't we go hunting and have a roast?"
Wen Renyao is probably the most picky of several people, more picky than Lin Yao. Thinking about eating better, Jiang Li said, "there are no hunting bows and arrows here, and we are on our way now."
"Wen Ji and Zhao Ke are very skilled. I'll ask them. Why don't I dig out the bird's nest and catch some sparrows by myself. Good sister, your craftsmanship is so good, don't be a pity."
He can even say "good sister", which shows that he doesn't want to be ashamed. Jiang Li was helpless. Lu Ji sat under the tree, leisurely eating dry food, and gave Wen Renyao a contemptuous look. Ji Hu didn't pay any attention to him at all. Wen Renyao dropped a sentence "I'll take it as a promise", and ran to Zhao Ke and Wen Ji. However, the bodyguards didn't seem to agree with Wen Renyao's plan. Jiang Li looked at where Wen Renyao lingered for a long time. Finally, she stood up dejected, as if she didn't die, and went to the bushes next to her.
Is he catching birds by himself? Jiang Li looked at Ji Heng: "he's alone... Won't there be any danger?"
Ji Heng smiled, "No."
It's like believing Wen Renyao very much. Jiang Li doesn't know what wenrenyao should believe. After all, wenrenyao doesn't seem to have martial arts.
But Ji Heng said so, Jiang Li naturally had nothing to say. Lin Yao is squatting on the ground, eating dry cakes and looking at the ants on the ground. The children of ordinary people are not as picky as Wen Renyao. They are very sensible and clever.
When everyone's dry food is finished, Wen Renyao hasn't come back yet. Jiang Li felt uneasy and asked, "do you want to find Wenren childe? It's been so long..."
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly saw Ji Xuan's face slightly changed, and she was surprised. She heard some voices "rustling" in the bushes. She heard people appear in front of her in sweat. As soon as he saw Jiang Li and them, he shouted, "run!"
But before he finished speaking, there was a louder sound in the bushes, and someone followed!
Wen Renyao ran to Lu Ji in a panic. Lu Ji and Ji Xuan, Zhao Ke, did not move, as if they had not seen Wen Renyao like this. Then, several people appeared behind the bushes, all dressed as soldiers. It was far from Huangzhou City. It could not be the general of Wu Wei, nor the man of the city guard. It must be the soldiers of King Cheng.
The reason is that Cheng Wang's soldiers took the main road and traveled faster than them. They didn't expect to meet them here. It seems that this is the straggler alone, probably the one who fell behind the soldiers of Cheng Wang.
There were five people here, but they were all born tall and with some hostility after killing. Seeing Jiang Li and his party, the leader asked, "who are you and what are you doing here?"
"Lord Bing," said Lu Ji with a smile, "we are merchants who came from Yongzhou and happened to pass by here. We originally wanted to go to Huangzhou. Who knew that the gate of Huangzhou City was not open, so we had to go back to Yongzhou. I heard that there was a lot of chaos outside, so I took the mountain road."
Lu Ji said this with a flattering smile on his face, but he couldn't see the shape of a strategist at all, as if he were really a timid businessman. Zhao Ke and Wen Ji don't talk. They are groomed by the coachman. Naturally, there is no problem.
"Leave the carriage," said the leading soldier, "others get out!"
Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, these people didn't use the knife. They still have a child. Jiang Li and Wen Renyao have no martial arts. It's true that these people will be tied up in the end. This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that if these people attract Cheng Wang's soldiers who haven't gone far, so many people come together. Even if Ji Heng's skill is no matter how great, it is difficult to defeat four hands with two fists.
The eyes of those people looked at them. A child, a young childe, a businessman who looked timid, two coachmen, Ji Heng's appearance was too prosperous, but when he restrained his dangerous breath, he was just a beautiful young man who was a little too much, nothing special.
The eyes of those officers and soldiers stopped on Jiang Li, and someone said, "women also stay!"
Jiang Li's heart "cluttered" for a moment. As the man spoke, the eyes of several soldiers thickened on Jiang Li. The red spots on her face are almost all right now, and she looks like a slim and beautiful girl. Fall into the hands of these people
Wen Renyao shouted at first. He said, "soldier, this is not good. If you want silver... We have plenty... Please help me."
One of the soldiers suddenly drew out his knife and shouted, "if you don't want to die, get away!"
Hearing that Renyao was startled, Lin Yao, who was hiding behind Lu Ji, burst into tears. The soldiers who cried were upset. One of them showed his fierce eyes and walked towards Lin Yao with a knife. The other two people came straight towards Jiang Li.
Their eyes were greedy, staring at Jiang Li as if a wolf had seen the prey. Jiang Li's hand touched the scissors in her sleeve. It was the scissors she had found in the basket of the dressing table on the day she was saved by Ji Heng and lived in Huangzhou City. It was about the scissors left by the previous owner of the house. That pair of scissors is exquisite and has been hidden in her sleeve. I thought it was useless, but I didn't expect it to be used here.
She couldn't help looking at Ji Heng. Ji Heng was still smiling. He just looked at her and didn't mean to fight. Jiang Li knew that he would not let everything happen in front of her, but her heart slowly picked up as the two men approached.
Just as one of the soldiers came to her with an obscene smile, and her hand was almost touching Jiang Li's face, Jiang Li suddenly pulled out the scissors in her sleeve and stabbed the person in front of her viciously. However, the next moment, she only saw a red shadow flash in front of her eyes, the red robe wrapped around her, and someone was talking in her ear.
His voice was low and soft, but with a little coldness. He said, "don't be afraid."
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
In the morning of the next day, Ji Chen planned to leave.
Wen Renyao has the most bags, Lu Ji and Jiang Li are nothing, not to mention Lin Yao.

Even Lin Yao who woke up later was also attracted by Lu Ji's words.The road back to Yanjing is smoother than expected.Zhao Ke said that if you hurry in the daytime, you can arrive about the seventh day. The first two days passed safely. On the third day, the carriage continued to move forward, no different from before.From Huangzhou to Yanjing, there are fewer and fewer families except outside the city gate. In addition, in order to avoid the soldiers of King Cheng, Zhao Ke and his wife took another path, almost to the mountains. On the third day, it was almost completely a wilderness, with no village in front of it, no store behind it, and nothing at all.Hearing people look outside for a while, he said, "I'm afraid I'll stay in the mountains today."Jiang Li doesn't feel much.Hearing her indifferent appearance in the distance, people asked, "Miss Jiang Er, why aren't you surprised to stay in the mountains tonight?""There are no other Inns here. There are people in the mountains, but they may not be found. It's easy to get lost by blindly looking for people. Compared with them, living in the mountains is a good choice." Jiang Li replied, "it's just that it's too dangerous to make a fire at night. For fear of attracting evil people, you'd better rest on the carriage."She didn't feel hard, but said it naturally, which made people look at her strangely and don't know what to say for a moment.Ji Hong smiled, as if she knew it clearly. Originally, when she was in Tongxiang, Xue Fangfei and Xue Zhao went hunting in the mountains together. Sometimes when it was over, she couldn't go home, so she made a fire and slept under the tree for a night. There are no evil people in the mountains of Tongxiang, only wild animals, and the fire is only to expel those wild animals.At this time, Lin Yao's stomach "Gulu" shouted, and Lin Yao said, "sister Jiang, I'm hungry."Jiang Li took out some dry cakes and water from the bag and handed it to him, saying, "eat some."It was also noon, but there were no inns in front of and behind. It seemed that even if you walked a long way, there would be no inns. Today is definitely not in the store to eat, can only eat dry food. Jiang Li also distributed the dry food to Lu Ji and others. Zhao Ke and Wen Ji also stopped the carriage and took a rest here for a while to eat something.Everyone got off the carriage.Ji Heng also held dry cakes in his hand. Jiang Li thought that a person as picky and delicate as he was would probably not touch the dry food. Jiang Li wanted to see what he ate. Unexpectedly, he directly picked up the dry food and put it to his mouth and ate it slowly.Jiang Li was stunned.This person's elegance is engraved in his bones. Even if he eats a piece of dry food, he is leisurely and leisurely, as if he is eating something delicious in the world. Jiang Li stared at him and forgot to eat the food in her hand. Ji Chen noticed her eyes and looked at it. She was stunned and suddenly laughed. He said, "what do you think I do?""Nothing." Jiang Li lowered her head and ate her own.Wen Renyao ran over from the grass and complained, "this dry cake is really terrible. Is there anything else to eat?" He suddenly thought of something, "Hey, second lady, don't you know how to roast deer and make crows and birds? There are many rabbits and birds in the mountain. Why don't we go hunting and have a roast?"Wen Renyao is probably the most picky of several people, more picky than Lin Yao. Thinking about eating better, Jiang Li said, "there are no hunting bows and arrows here, and we are on our way now.""Wen Ji and Zhao Ke are very skilled. I'll ask them. Why don't I dig out the bird's nest and catch some sparrows by myself. Good sister, your craftsmanship is so good, don't be a pity."He can even say "good sister", which shows that he doesn't want to be ashamed. Jiang Li was helpless. Lu Ji sat under the tree, leisurely eating dry food, and gave Wen Renyao a contemptuous look. Ji Hu didn't pay any attention to him at all. Wen Renyao dropped a sentence "I'll take it as a promise", and ran to Zhao Ke and Wen Ji. However, the bodyguards didn't seem to agree with Wen Renyao's plan. Jiang Li looked at where Wen Renyao lingered for a long time. Finally, she stood up dejected, as if she didn't die, and went to the bushes next to her.Is he catching birds by himself? Jiang Li looked at Ji Heng: "he's alone... Won't there be any danger?"Ji Heng smiled, "No."It's like believing Wen Renyao very much. Jiang Li doesn't know what wenrenyao should believe. After all, wenrenyao doesn't seem to have martial arts.But Ji Heng said so, Jiang Li naturally had nothing to say. Lin Yao is squatting on the ground, eating dry cakes and looking at the ants on the ground. The children of ordinary people are not as picky as Wen Renyao. They are very sensible and clever.When everyone's dry food is finished, Wen Renyao hasn't come back yet. Jiang Li felt uneasy and asked, "do you want to find Wenren childe? It's been so long..."Before she finished speaking, she suddenly saw Ji Xuan's face slightly changed, and she was surprised. She heard some voices "rustling" in the bushes. She heard people appear in front of her in sweat. As soon as he saw Jiang Li and them, he shouted, "run!"But before he finished speaking, there was a louder sound in the bushes, and someone followed!Wen Renyao ran to Lu Ji in a panic. Lu Ji and Ji Xuan, Zhao Ke, did not move, as if they had not seen Wen Renyao like this. Then, several people appeared behind the bushes, all dressed as soldiers. It was far from Huangzhou City. It could not be the general of Wu Wei, nor the man of the city guard. It must be the soldiers of King Cheng.The reason is that Cheng Wang's soldiers took the main road and traveled faster than them. They didn't expect to meet them here. It seems that this is the straggler alone, probably the one who fell behind the soldiers of Cheng Wang.There were five people here, but they were all born tall and with some hostility after killing. Seeing Jiang Li and his party, the leader asked, "who are you and what are you doing here?""Lord Bing," said Lu Ji with a smile, "we are merchants who came from Yongzhou and happened to pass by here. We originally wanted to go to Huangzhou. Who knew that the gate of Huangzhou City was not open, so we had to go back to Yongzhou. I heard that there was a lot of chaos outside, so I took the mountain road."Lu Ji said this with a flattering smile on his face, but he couldn't see the shape of a strategist at all, as if he were really a timid businessman. Zhao Ke and Wen Ji don't talk. They are groomed by the coachman. Naturally, there is no problem."Leave the carriage," said the leading soldier, "others get out!"Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, these people didn't use the knife. They still have a child. Jiang Li and Wen Renyao have no martial arts. It's true that these people will be tied up in the end. This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that if these people attract Cheng Wang's soldiers who haven't gone far, so many people come together. Even if Ji Heng's skill is no matter how great, it is difficult to defeat four hands with two fists.The eyes of those people looked at them. A child, a young childe, a businessman who looked timid, two coachmen, Ji Heng's appearance was too prosperous, but when he restrained his dangerous breath, he was just a beautiful young man who was a little too much, nothing special.The eyes of those officers and soldiers stopped on Jiang Li, and someone said, "women also stay!"Jiang Li's heart "cluttered" for a moment. As the man spoke, the eyes of several soldiers thickened on Jiang Li. The red spots on her face are almost all right now, and she looks like a slim and beautiful girl. Fall into the hands of these peopleWen Renyao shouted at first. He said, "soldier, this is not good. If you want silver... We have plenty... Please help me."One of the soldiers suddenly drew out his knife and shouted, "if you don't want to die, get away!"Hearing that Renyao was startled, Lin Yao, who was hiding behind Lu Ji, burst into tears. The soldiers who cried were upset. One of them showed his fierce eyes and walked towards Lin Yao with a knife. The other two people came straight towards Jiang Li.Their eyes were greedy, staring at Jiang Li as if a wolf had seen the prey. Jiang Li's hand touched the scissors in her sleeve. It was the scissors she had found in the basket of the dressing table on the day she was saved by Ji Heng and lived in Huangzhou City. It was about the scissors left by the previous owner of the house. That pair of scissors is exquisite and has been hidden in her sleeve. I thought it was useless, but I didn't expect it to be used here.She couldn't help looking at Ji Heng. Ji Heng was still smiling. He just looked at her and didn't mean to fight. Jiang Li knew that he would not let everything happen in front of her, but her heart slowly picked up as the two men approached.Just as one of the soldiers came to her with an obscene smile, and her hand was almost touching Jiang Li's face, Jiang Li suddenly pulled out the scissors in her sleeve and stabbed the person in front of her viciously. However, the next moment, she only saw a red shadow flash in front of her eyes, the red robe wrapped around her, and someone was talking in her ear.His voice was low and soft, but with a little coldness. He said, "don't be afraid."
