He had been in such a daze just now that he did not notice that someone had ambushed him…

If she had not attacked in time, he would have long become a dead soul under the other party’s blade.

As this thought flashed through his mind, Xiao Shunyang broke out in a cold sweat.

He couldn’t help but size up Su Xiaoxiao again.

The last time he saw her was three months ago. Qin Jiang and Qin Che fought for the military power of the Protectorate. At that time, she was not conspicuous, or rather, she deliberately kept a low profile.

He had heard that her medical skills were very good and she had treated his father and grandmother, but he did not expect her skills and reaction to be so sharp and decisive.

“The Empress is inside.”

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t care what Xiao Shunyang was thinking.

After saying that calmly, she took the big bow that Jing Yi had made for her, pulled out the arrow from that assasin’s chest, inserted it into the quiver on her back, and left without looking back.

After the two experts disguised as vendors and coachmen left the city, they stopped at an official courier station.

At the moment of escape, the more secretive they were, the more suspicious it was. They had to fake their identities, so they would not look suspicious.

Wei Xiyue was dressed as a little boy. Her face was too beautiful, and the vendor had smeared some black dust on her face, making her look a little dirty, but the intelligence in her big eyes could not be hidden.

The vendor held her wrist and took her to a room around the corner before knocking on the door. “Master.”

“Come in.”

King Nanyang’s voice came from inside.

The vendor brought Wei Xiyue into the house, and the coachman stood guard at the door.

“I asked you to catch…” King Nanyang looked up. Halfway through his sentence, he paused and frowned slightly.

The vendor said, “She’s a child of the Wei family’s second branch.”

Of course, King Nanyang knew who she was. Before the battle at Broken North Pass, he had secretly gone to the Wei family. Even Xiao Min did not see him. This little girl had bumped into him unexpectedly.

However, the little girl was still young at that time. She looked like she was two or three years old?

She probably couldn’t remember what happened a few years ago.

Moreover, he had changed his appearance. Even if the little girl remembered, it was impossible for her to recognize him.

“Master, don’t worry. She won’t make a lot of noise.” The vendor pointed at his head, indicating that this girl was a little fool.

King Nanyang had been traumatized by the three little fellows. When he saw the child, he had a headache. He waved his hand and asked the vendor to take her away.

The vendor retreated respectfully.

The coachman flashed in and cupped his hands. “Master.”

King Nanyang asked calmly, “Why did you capture the little girl?”

It was all his stupid teammates’ fault… The coachman wanted to clear the air, but his master hated it the most when they pushed the blame away. He lowerel his head and said, “I didn’t do it well. Master, please punish me.”

Now that he was in need of people, King Nanyang did not punish him. “There won’t be a next time.”

The coachman heaved a sigh of relief. “Thank you, Master! Master, I have something to report.”

“Shoot. ”

“Liu Zhou and I were followed. Although we used some smokescreen to temporarily shake him off, I’m worried that he might find us soon.”

Liu Zhou was the vendor.

“Qin Canglan?”

“It’s not him. It’s a… sacrificial soldier.”

His injuries had already healed. As long as it was not Qin Canglan, there was nothing to be afraid of.

The coachman came out of the house and saw the vendor standing alone under the porch eating a drumstick. He glared at him. “Where is the child?”

The vendor glanced at the courtyard. “Here.”

There were many merchants coming and going from various places at the courier station. Among them, an old goat seller was squatting in the courtyard and pulling wool. Wei Xiyue was squatting beside him and watching. The coachman frowned. “Watch her closely. Be careful not to let her run away!”

The vendor said, “No! Have you forgotten that she’s fool?”

The fool Wei Xiyue watched the old man fleece for a full hour. At first, the two of them took turns watching her. Later on, when they returned from the toilet, they realized that she was still there and completely ignored her.

“Time to eat.”

The vendor brought Wei Xiyue back to the house.

Wei Xiyue refused to eat by herself and went to King Nanyang’s room.

King Nanyang frowned and looked at her. There were too many people and it was not good if she cried. King Nanyang asked someone to add a set of bowls and chopsticks.

Prince Nanyang’s taste was light, but the food at the posthouse was spicy and salty. His mouth was extremely dry after eating a few bites.

The tea in the teapot was still greasy when it was poured out. He felt disgusted and put down the teacup again.

Wei Xiyue handed him her water bag.

This water bag was new and she had not drunk a sip.

King Nanyang was extremely affected by the spiciness. He pulled out the stopper and raised his head to take two big gulps. Only after drinking did he realize that something was wrong..
