The officers and soldiers laughed awkwardly: "But this, isn't this different? You are still so small, and they are already so big."
Xia Zhaoyi smiled and shook his head and said, "Don't pay attention to me, I'm just passing by. You guys can live your life how you want."
While speaking, Qingyun's footsteps never stopped, and the officers and soldiers followed her step by step.
The villagers were also following: "Girl, do you really know those high officials? Please give us an explanation!"
"They don't allow us to enter the city. They want to seal the city like those state capitals. What will we do?"
"Yes, girl, where are your adults, are they nearby?"
Xia Zhaoyi shook his head, paused, reined in his horse, and looked back at them.
"If you are afraid or uneasy, there is a place you can go."
"What?"
Xia Zhaoyi glanced at the crowd and waved to an old woman at the back: "Old man, come here."
The old woman was stunned for a moment: "Me?"
"Um."
The crowd made some way, and the old lady walked over with unsteady steps and looked up at Xia Zhaoyi.
Xia Zhaoyi leaned down on the horse and whispered into the old woman's ear.
I spoke slowly because I was worried that the old man wouldn't be able to hear me clearly.
Everyone looked at them curiously.
After finishing speaking, Xia Zhaoyi said: "Do you remember clearly?"
The old woman blinked, nodded, and said, "Why did you tell me?"
"If anything happens, just take them there. It's safe there. If nothing happens, that's the best, but don't tell anyone before you take others there."
The old woman nodded lightly: "Okay, okay..."
Xia Zhaoyi asked Qingyun to speed up and rode away.
The group of people surrounded the old woman, who pursed her lips and said nothing to anyone.
"It's quite lively in front." Shen Xu said warmly.
The car curtains were kept rolled up, and the evening breeze blew in, and the heat of the day disappeared.
Shen Lie looked at the crowd and said lightly "Yeah".
"Shou Shi is coming soon." Shen Xu added.
"There's still twenty miles left," Shitou said outside.
Shen Xu raised her eyes and looked at the clouds in the sky, her eyes a little sad.
"We get together and part ways eventually. We'll say goodbye again. The mountains are high and the water is far away." Shen Shu said in a low voice.
"Take care of yourself." Shen Lie replied without looking at him.
Shen Xu smiled: "Zhiyan, are you really not going back to the Shen family again in this life? If you can go back with me, we don't have to separate."
"Don't you remember what the Shen family did to me?" Shen Lie said lightly, "I did not avenge my mother, which is the greatest tolerance for the Shen family. You still want me to go back and recognize my ancestors? No,
No, he must just think that my son is dead."
"Father can't bear it either. He is harsh to you, but he only hopes that his son will succeed."
"I think you'd better understand the difference between harshness and cruelty," Shen Lie smiled, "He has higher hopes for you, so why isn't he strict with you?"
Shen Xu shook his head and looked back at the clouds on the horizon: "Not being able to see my family get together may be my biggest regret."
"Aren't you the most obedient to fate? Didn't you calculate that this day would never come to pass?" Shen Lie sneered.
"If I don't take advantage of this, it won't be accurate."
"You have the final say in everything with your mouth, and I can't control you," Shen Lie said.
Before the officers and soldiers left, when they saw another carriage, everyone forgot to come over.
The two young men in the car, regardless of the material of their clothes, just by looking at their faces, you can tell that they are not ordinary people, they are so handsome and good-looking.
He was followed by several guards, who were tall and powerful, and could not be more imposing.
The carriage came closer, and the older man in purple in the carriage smiled and said, "Folks, why is it so lively?"
The most active officers and soldiers ran up to them again and asked diligently: "You adults, are you going to keep up with that girl? Hurry up, that girl is going to be far away!"
"Girl?" Shen Xu frowned, "What girl?"
"Ah? That girl is not with you?"
Shen Xun smiled: "Why do you think that girl is with us?"
"It seems to be about Miss Zeng from Muzhou..."
"Muzhou Zeng family?" Shen Xu said lightly, "We don't know her. Did she say we were behind?"
"No, no, no, that's not what she said..." The officer and soldier were embarrassed. He just wanted to get close and show off his authority in front of these country bumpkins.
"Then adults, let's go." The officer and the soldier said again, and then regretted a little. They may not necessarily be adults. In this world, even merchants can be so arrogant and majestic.
Unexpectedly, this person would be reluctant, so he asked again: "What kind of girl do you think she is with us, and who is following her?"
"There's just one person riding a big horse!" cried a village woman, "How impressive! He looks graceful and graceful, and the way he talks makes him look like he belongs to a wealthy family!"
"That's right!" Others also said.
"Oh," Shen Shu smiled, "I don't know him."
"Stone, let's go." Shen Lie said.
Shi Shi whipped up his whip and the carriage ran forward.
"Are you afraid that someone will follow you?" Shen Lie said.
"Why should I be afraid of this?" Shen Shu smiled.
"I thought you were scared." Shen Lie looked ahead and could faintly see the river.
The setting sun made the river surface sparkle with golden light, a few rows of egrets flew by, and a group of red-billed gulls flew over there.
There are many boats on the river, and there is a ferry not far away.
"Drive!" Stone whipped his whip fiercely, and the horse sped up.
No matter how fast the horse ran, it was how much he didn't want to stay with Shen Chen anymore.
As I ran closer and closer, I could see many people surrounding the ferry.
There were several people leading the horses, and several people riding on them.
There was a figure here, and they noticed it at a glance.
The thin and small figure sat sideways on the horse, and his whole body seemed to be plated with a layer of golden light.
The sparkling water on the river also made her profile unclear.
She lowered her head and held a few pieces of long grass in her hands, as if she was knitting something.
"Could it be that you are talking about this girl?" Shen Xu said.
Shen Lie looked at the little girl, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Don't you recognize her?"
"Will I recognize you?"
"Snake meat." Shen Lie said.
After a pause, he remembered and looked towards the girl.
Xia Zhaoyi picked up two pieces of Qingyun horse straw from the bamboo basket and weaved them blindly there.
She didn't know there was a river here, and to cross the river, she had to wait for the boat to come.
Two of them had just left when they arrived, and they were told they would come back after being sent there, so she had no choice but to continue waiting.
Threading the last section of horse straw through the layers in front, she tied a small knot to secure it.
"It's so beautiful. Is this a butterfly?" A childish voice sounded like milk.
