Just when all the forces were rushing to make plans for themselves, King Huai was naturally not idle either.
According to previous speculations, the forces from these parties will eventually gather in Nanjing. If this is the case, then why doesn't he just leave for Nanjing and make plans?
After he told Yichen about this idea, Yichen thought about it carefully and thought it was feasible.
Since there is no way out in the capital, their first task is of course to find their former subordinates. The troops sent out to intercept the emperor have now become their best barrier.
The people he sent out knew what they were doing, so they were not worried about the other party receiving any specious news, which would cause the morale of the army to be disrupted. The only thing he was worried about now was that he did not know their specific location and might not be able to meet them on the road.
Now they can only inquire while walking. After all, they are also a large team, and they might be lucky enough to find some clues.
Speaking of which, it has been almost a month since they left the capital. I wonder... how are Wen Shaoxue and their master and servant doing? I wonder if King Zhou will embarrass them after they find out that they have left?
It's just that she is an acquaintance of King Rui after all. King Zhou and King Rui are now in an alliance, so they shouldn't embarrass those who cooperate with him. But I don't know if she will choose to continue waiting in the capital, waiting for the one who may
People who will never come back again.
If he could see the emperor, he would definitely convey this wish to him for Wen Shaoxue. Even if he really didn't plan to return to the capital, he should still let him know that there was someone there who had been silently guarding him.
Wait for him.
"Master, the road ahead doesn't seem to be easy, so you must sit tight." Yichen's brisk voice came over, and then the carriage started to bump.
Speaking of this, King Huai felt very depressed. It had been almost a month, and his injury had almost recovered. At first, he said that he would sell the carriage as soon as his injury improved, and the two of them rode on horseback.
As a result, Yichen gave him all kinds of reasons along the way, forcing him to sit in the carriage all the time. He was so bored in the carriage every day.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, after leaving the jurisdiction of the capital, Yichen changed "Wangye" to "Young Master". It was extremely awkward at the beginning and he always called it wrong. Now he calls it more often. It's slow.
It's easy to get used to it.
In fact, don't tell me, calling you young master makes people feel much more relaxed than calling them prince, as if they are just two masters and servants out to enjoy the mountains and rivers, rather than rebels who have just escaped from death.
"Can you please slow down a little? We are not in a hurry. Why are you in such a hurry?" This section of the road was really bumpy. It took a lot of effort for Prince Huai to stay stable in the carriage.
"It's already getting dark. We need to find a small shop where we can stay before it gets dark and recharge our batteries so that we can travel better tomorrow."
King Huai also noticed that although they were on the run now, Yichen's mood seemed much better than when he was in the palace before, he talked more, and his whole person seemed lively.
"You said that you have been destined to be a poor man and a wanted criminal all your life. You are allowed to live a good life for a few days, and you are annoyed every day as if someone owed you tens of thousands of money. Now you are wandering around penniless, but you are in a good mood.
Get up." King Huai teased Yichen.
"Yes, I was born poor. I can't live a life of wealth. As long as I can do this every day, I will be satisfied." Yichen pulled the reins hard, and the carriage suddenly bumped even more violently.
"This unlucky boy, I really don't know who you followed..." Prince Huai muttered softly.
Sure enough, they found an inn where they could stay before dark. Although the place was not big, it looked quite clean. King Huai frowned and looked around, then let out a disdainful snort from his nose.
Yichen didn't see the disgusted look on his face, checked that the surrounding environment was still quiet, and happily paid the money to book a room.
The shopkeeper thought that they must be young men from wealthy families. He probably looked down on such a remote shop like his, so he went over and explained to them with a smile: "You two gentlemen, please don't think that my place is small. Even though the sparrow is small,
But it has all the essentials, and the environment here is definitely no worse than those first-class shops in the capital."
From the first floor, whether it is the tableware, tables, chairs, or the various furnishings in the store, they are indeed no worse than those of big restaurants. It can even be said that many places are original and extremely exquisitely designed.
Yichen was curious: "Since you have such taste and strength, why would you open a store in such a barren place? It must be difficult to do business here, right?"
The shopkeeper smiled heartily: "The reason why I chose to open the store here is not to make money. I just think that I really like the quiet environment here and not be bothered by my family, so I chose to open here.
Opening an inn can be regarded as providing convenience to passers-by."
Yichen was surprised. He didn't expect that there are really masters in this world who do business not for making money, and he felt very admired in his heart.
"It's getting late today. Judging from the looks of it, you two must have been on the road all day, so go up and have a rest. If you need a midnight snack or bath water, just ask the waiter next to you." The shopkeeper warned.
Say something to them.
"Thank you, shopkeeper. We will remember it. If we pass by here again next time, we will definitely patronize your store again." He said this sincerely. Where can I find a store like this with good conditions and low price?
another?
"This young master is very talkative and lovable. The kitchen here provides desserts and fruits. If you need them, you can just go down and get them yourself."
After they went upstairs and found their room, King Huai couldn't help but look at the person in front of him with admiration. His meaningful gaze made Yichen couldn't help but feel chills running down his back: "Master, what happened to you today? Why?
Have you been staring at me?"
"I didn't realize it before. It turns out that it's not that you can't talk more, it's just that you don't want to say it. You have a good way of saying these flattering things." King Huai deliberately teased him.
"No, I really think so. A store like his is so cheap and has good conditions. If I can pass by here next time, of course I will choose their store." If I say a few more words to him now, I might go there.
What other benefits can I get from this trip? It would also be good to have some free meals.
Prince Huai patted his shoulder hard: "Yichen, I know that you have worked really hard for me during this time."
Yichen pursed his lips and said deliberately seriously: "The young master still pays so much attention to me. I will ask him to come and bring bath water, and then you can go to bed early."
