Early in the morning, as soon as it dawned, General Luo rushed into the gate of the Prince Regent's Palace.
Fortunately, it was still early and no one saw it, otherwise outsiders might have thought that General Luo was finally dissatisfied with his powerful son-in-law and was about to come knocking.
Of course, it's not wrong to say it's a door-to-door service.
Luo Yun slammed a letter onto the table in front of Xie Yan and said angrily: "Xie Yan, what's going on!"
Today is not a day for morning court, but the regent is already sitting in the study neatly dressed and with a calm expression, as if he is waiting for you.
Xie Yan lowered his head and glanced at the letter on the table and said, "What Yao Yao wrote in the letter is the truth."
"Bastard!" Luo Yun's roar almost echoed through the entire courtyard. Duoying and Xiying, who were guarding the door, looked at each other and became worried about the prince's safety again.
However, if the father-in-law wants to beat his son-in-law, it seems difficult for them as subordinates to intervene. Fortunately, General Luo seems to be unable to beat the prince.
Luo Yun glared at Xie Yan angrily and said: "How old is Yao Yao? You don't know what's going on in Qingzhou now, and you dare to let her handle it?! What if something happens..." Thinking that he had not done his part in raising him for more than ten years.
Luo Yun couldn't help but turn his eyes red as he blamed his daughter who was still so well-behaved and filial.
Luo Yun also knew that it was impossible for Xie Yan to take the initiative to ask his daughter to go. He could only insist on going because Xie Yan could not persuade her.
But... sometimes there is no reason to express anger.
Luo Jinxing, who came with Luo Yun, also glared angrily. If his father hadn't attacked him first, he might have been tempted to take action as soon as he entered the door.
Xie Yan picked up the letter that Luo Yun slapped on the table and read it, folded the letter again and put it in front of Luo Yun, saying: "I asked Qu Fang and Gu Jue to follow, there will be no danger. General, shake it
You and I both know why. I can't stop him, and neither can you."
Of course Luo Yun knew this truth, he knew it the first time he saw the letter.
"Yaoyao is still so young. She needs to take risks as a little girl in these things. What else do we need to do?" Luo Yun sat down slowly and said in a daze: "It's just Cao Mian...even if there is something that shouldn't be done.
Just think, I can kill him with my backhand!"
He and Cao Mian were close in age and were among the youngest people who followed Emperor Gaozu back then, but their friendship in both literature and martial arts was average.
It's just that they all conquered the world together in the beginning, and there is some incestuous love after all. But if Cao Mian had different intentions, the little friendship back then would not be enough to make Luo Yun show mercy to him.
Xie Yan said: "My father-in-law has been on the battlefield for decades, and I don't want to see you go to the battlefield in the name of quelling chaos one day."
Although some people say that "dying in battle is a good death," as a child, who doesn't want his father to spend his old age peacefully?
Luo Yun has been on the battlefield since he was a teenager, and he really didn't live a happy life for a few days.
Luo Yun took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "Is it true that everything will be fine?"
Xie Yan said: "Father-in-law, you don't know enough about Yaoyao. Or you can ask Jinxing?"
Luo Yun turned around and looked at Luo Jinxing, who was standing behind him. Luo Jinxing lowered his head in frustration and said, "Shao Yao... Yao Yao's skills are pretty good, and he should be no worse than his elder brother in a real fight. Besides... my elder brother told me before he left.
, Yao Yao is not an ignorant child, she can do many things very well, so if I...if I am unsure about anything, I can discuss it with her."
But her sister is still the one who needs to be cared for and taken care of. Luo Jinxing still cannot accept it in her heart to let her go thousands of miles away alone to deal with such dangerous matters.
"Dad! I'm going to Qingzhou to find Yaoyao!" Luo Jinxing said firmly.
Luo Yun took a deep breath and said: "What's the use of going? Stay in Shangyong. Your sister is sick, what are you doing to leave Beijing at this time as an elder brother?"
Some roughly pulled the ink and paper in front of Xie Yan, Luo Yun quickly wrote a few lines of handwriting on it, and then pushed it to Xie Yan.
"Send someone to deliver it to Yao Yao."
Xie Yan didn't look at it. He folded it, took out an envelope and put it in. He nodded and said, "Okay."
Luo Yun sighed, stood up and said: "I am not familiar with Qingzhou and Cao Mian, but there are still a few trustworthy people in Qingzhou." This was an explanation of the content of the letter.
Xie Yan nodded slightly, "Thank you, father-in-law."
Luo Yun snorted lightly and said: "We are going back first. Since Shake is sick, I will ask her mother and sister to come over and take a look later." When acting, you need to do a full set.
"yes."
The next day, there was news in the imperial city.
The Princess Regent had a rash all over her body, including her face, because of something she had done wrong. All kinds of precious medicinal materials and supplements were sent to the Prince Regent's Mansion in a steady stream, but the Princess's people could not be seen. But everyone understood,
How can a delicate little girl like the princess be willing to see people when her face is covered in rashes?
Of course, there are also people who secretly have some unrealistic fantasies in their hearts.
The group of seven people who left Shangyong quietly changed their makeup and headed north.
This is the first time Luo Junyao has been to a place other than Shangyong since he came to this world. Before, even if he had to leave the city for business, he could only go a few dozen miles outside the city.
The seven of them pretended to be wealthy people visiting relatives in the north, and they didn't need any guards or servants.
Xie Xiao is the elder brother, and Luo Junyao is the younger sister. Qu Fang is the uncle, Gu Jue and Ye Feng are the guards, Qin Yao'er is the girl's personal maid, and Chen Xun is the young master's servant.
Others had no idea about this, but Xie Xiao felt that the pressure was a bit high.
After all, if it was a matter of seniority, he would have to call the Princess Regent Aunt. Even if it was a matter of seniority, he would not dare to let the Princess call him brother.
Qin Yaoer was very excited and even used his superb disguise skills to prevent passers-by from thinking that the appearance of this group of people was too extraordinary and attracting attention.
Everyone rode their horses all the way, and two days later they were already three hundred miles away from Shangyong.
After leaving the Shangyong area, the world you see is completely different from the original one.
Even if the people in the Gyeonggi area near Shangyong were poor, their lives would not be too bad. Once the thin veil covering his eyes fell after leaving Shangyong, Luo Junyao could really see what the situation was like in Dasheng today.
Only then did he truly understand that the imperial court had clearly won the battle, and now Dasheng had many powerful soldiers and famous generals. Why didn't Xie Yan attack the Qi people in one fell swoop? Why didn't he directly send troops to pacify the southern border.
I also understand why Xie Yan said that if the weaving workshop produces large quantities of fabrics, it will only impact the market. Not only will it not make much money, it will not be of any benefit to ordinary people.
Because, I am really poor.
Places only three hundred miles away from Shangyong are so poor, let alone other places.
Luo Junyao also saw poverty and war-torn countries in his previous life, but that was a modern society after all. When the world was at peace, most places were relatively stable, at least with enough food and clothing.
On the other hand, to put it more selfishly, it is not their own country after all. As passers-by, they will sympathize, pity, and even do some things they can do, but they feel more alert than heavy responsibility and guilt in their hearts.
Dasheng used to have nothing to do with Luo Junyao, but it obviously doesn't anymore.
She is the regent princess of Dasheng.
Compared to Luo Junyao's gloomy mood, others seemed accustomed to it. Even Qin Yao'er, the youngest and most lively one, didn't think there was anything wrong.
She grew up in a border town, and these people could at least have a place of peace. In those years, people would bleed to death from time to time in the border town.
When it was getting dark that day, they stayed in a small town.
It is said to be a small town, but it is actually just two short streets at the foot of the mountain. At first glance, there are not as many houses as in some villages outside Shangyong City. However, from a distance, you can see a half-old flag raised high on the street.
, there is only the word inn written on it.
They avoided official roads and took small roads along the way, and this small town was not far from the road.
There isn't even a plaque on the door, which makes it look very careless. It's obvious that it just earns a little money from the tourists who pass by occasionally.
"Are you going to rest here tonight?" Gu Jue looked at Luo Junyao and said, "I'm afraid there is no other place to stay within a few dozen miles."
Luo Junyao asked Xie Xiao with a smile, "Brother, what do you think?"
Xie Xiao only felt a black line, and nodded helplessly: "Just here, at least there is a roof."
The people led the horses and walked over. The bumpy dirt road was quiet, and only a few people were seen on the street.
Very few outsiders come to this place, and everyone has a good idea.
The door of the inn is no different from the other doors along the street. They are all single-leaf wooden doors that are dusty and dark. It is difficult for two people to enter side by side.
The lobby is not large, with only three tables in total, and it feels quite crowded. With several people squeezed in at once, it becomes even more cramped.
A commoner boy of 17 or 18 years old was lying at the table in a daze out of boredom. When he saw them coming in, his eyes lit up and he quickly stood up to greet them, "Are these guests staying at the hotel or eating?"
Qin Yao'er looked at the thin layer of dust on the table and said unhappily: "Eat first, then stay in the hotel. You guys are lazy and don't even clean the table."
The young man laughed innocently and explained: "Well...we haven't had guests here for many days. Wait a minute, girl, I'll clean it up right away!" Then he shouted toward the inside: "Dad! Mom!"
We have guests!”
It turns out that this is not the waiter, but the young owner of this inn. But in such an inn and such a place, there is no difference.
Soon there was a sound of footsteps inside, and a middle-aged couple lifted the curtain from the back and came out one after another.
With two more people, the room became more crowded.
Qu Fang and Gu Jue looked at each other and both retreated.
Qin Yao'er rolled her eyes and pulled Chen Xun out, "Let's go watch the horses." This place was like this anyway, and she didn't expect anything good to eat, so just let it be.
Seeing the four people going out, the boss and his wife were obviously relieved.
"Please take a seat, please." The landlady wiped her rough hands on the coarse cloth apron in front of her and said enthusiastically: "Please sit down and have a cup of tea. Let's cook for the guests."
As he spoke, he glared at the boss who looked honest and honest, and said, "What are you still waiting for? Go and light a fire to cook."
The young man next to him had cleverly given up the newly cleaned table and chairs, and said with a smile: "Sir, please have a seat."
Xie Xiao looked at the entire inn lobby, turned his head and said to Luo Junyao: "There is no other place, just stay here for one night." Luo Junyao nodded and sat down first.
Xie Xiao then took out a small piece of broken silver and said: "Boss boss, go buy some good meat and vegetables and watch them being cooked. In addition... the beds and bedding in the room must be changed cleanly, and it is best for the girl's room to be replaced with new ones.
We'll give you money." Naturally, he could see that this inn might not have many customers for ten and a half days, and naturally the store wouldn't always have any good food on hand.
The landlady's eyes immediately lit up when she saw the broken silver, and she said with a smile on her face: "Don't worry, sir. Although we don't have any precious ingredients here, we can still buy some game. There is also the girl's bedding. The Wang family is at the end of the street.
Those who specialize in this must have new ones at home, and I will go and get them back in person soon."
Xie Xiao nodded, "Thank you."
Seeing Xie Xiao's handsome and polite appearance, the landlady smiled so hard that she couldn't even see her eyes.
Instructing his son to greet the guests well, he quickly took the money and went out to buy things.
Although Luo Junyao and the others had put on ordinary clothes that were not eye-catching when they went out, their appearance and temperament, regardless of whether they were men or women, did not look like ordinary people. They were also generous in giving, so the landlady was naturally very attentive.
Xie Xiao sat down opposite Luo Junyao. Luo Junyao said to Ye Feng who was standing aside: "Ye Feng, please sit down too."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Ye Feng shook his head and said: "I will go to the kitchen behind to help the boss light the fire."
"How dare you ask the guest officer to help? My father is used to it and can handle it." The young man came over with a teapot and said while pouring tea.
Ye Feng ignored him and walked towards the back.
The young man was stunned, "Huh? He..."
Luo Junyao said with a smile: "Brother, there is no need to leave him. He just can't stay idle and feels uncomfortable if he doesn't do something for a moment."
The young man looked at Ye Feng who had already opened the curtain and walked in, so he could only say: "Well... that's fine."
Naturally, the roadside shops don’t have any good tea, they only pick and roast their own camellias.
Xie Xiao took a sip and felt the bitter taste in her mouth making her want to frown.
Luo Junyao looked at him with a smile and said to the young man: "Brother, please send some tea to those people outside."
When the young man saw that she had delicate, white and beautiful eyebrows, and a smile as bright as stars, he couldn't help but blush. He quickly responded, took a few tea bowls from the table next to her with the teapot, and went out.
Xie Xiao couldn't help but feel a little headache looking at her appearance, "Why don't you let Miss Yao'er cover up your appearance again?"
Luo Junyao was dissatisfied, "I'm already like this, how can I cover up? I can't wear a veil, right?"
Of course, they should not let others discover their identity when they go out. Their appearance has been modified to a certain extent. Qin Yaoer's potions and disguise techniques are clever, and Luo Junyao's appearance at this time is only five points closer to the original one at most.
Even if an acquaintance of Shang Yong stood in front of her, if she didn't say anything, she would probably only think that it was a girl who looked similar to her, rather than the Princess Regent herself.
Xie Xiao said: "For example... make the skin darker and get a few big moles or birthmarks or something?" The little princess looks really attractive. He doesn't want to look back because he didn't protect the princess well and she was coveted by others.
, and was repaired by the Prince Regent.
Luo Junyao looked at him speechlessly, "Brother, you look like this, and I am a crooked melon and a jujube. Do you still remember that we are brother and sister?"
Xie Xiao was a little troubled, and after hesitating for a long time, he reluctantly said, "How about I dress up too?" Prince Xie has a tendency to love beauty, and he cannot accept that he has become ugly.
Luo Junyao complained speechlessly: "There are also Yao'er and Gu Jue, oh, Ye Feng and Chen Xun. How about we form an alliance of ugly people?"
"That's right...it's not necessary." A group of ugly people gathered together, and they were as eye-catching as a group of handsome men and beauties.
No, we can also choose to dress more normally.
Luo Junyao reached out and patted him on the shoulder and said: "Brother, being conspicuous has its advantages. Don't think so much. At worst, some places will bring curtains or veils."
Seeing the serious look on her face, Xie Xiao could only give up.
