Chapter 1198: A Small Path?

Therefore, she had always stepped on one foot and hung on the side of the horse’s stomach.
Now, the secret guards had prepared a small saddle that was suitable for her to sit on. This small saddle was customized. After she sat on it, not only could she exert strength with her hands, but she could also exert strength with her feet.
However, she was still too young. If she rode like this, she would attract attention wherever she went, unlike Xue Yan who was already a big child. After catching up with Doctor Shen, she would sit on the carriage instead, so as not to attract too much attention and alert the enemy.
She didn’t deliberately bring any secret guards with them, in case there were too many of them and they would easily attract attention.
However, there were secret guards to support them along the way.
Because of this, Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, and Xue Sifu did not take the wrong route and the journey was extremely smooth. They only used two and a half days to catch up to Doctor Shen.
“Those three people are taking Doctor Shen to rest by the roadside ten meters away from us,” reported a Cloud Guard.
Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, and Xue Sifu all stopped their horses.
“Is there a small path to go around in front of them?” Xue Yan asked as he sat high up on his horse.
They had to get Doctor Shen’s attention, but they couldn’t alert the enemy. Even if they knew that Prince Yi was in Changyu, they didn’t know where he was. They would have to go around the front and follow behind him. They wouldn’t alert the enemy and the enemy would bring them to where Prince Yi was.
“Yes, there’s a small path from here.”
Then, the Cloud Guard led the way in front while Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, and Xue Sifu followed behind on their horses.
The path was very narrow and overgrown with weeds on both sides. The carriage couldn’t pass through, but the horse could just pass through.
Fortunately, there weren’t any cliffs nearby. Otherwise, it would have been quite dangerous for the three of them.
Once they were in front of Doctor Shen and the other three, Jiang Yue and the others did not retreat. Instead, they quickly rode to an inn in the wilderness where Doctor Shen and the other three would stay to make arrangements.
Unless the three of them forced Doctor Shen to travel longer, they would stay in this inn.
This was the only inn for dozens of miles.
The three men sent by Duan Huai had no idea that Jiang Yue and the others had taken a detour in front of them. They only invited Doctor Shen to get into the carriage again and continued on their way back to Changyu.
It was getting late, the people and horses were tired and needed to rest for a while, so Doctor Shen came down to rest while eating dry food for lunch.
“Alright.” When Doctor Shen heard that he was asked to get on the carriage, he was helped onto the carriage and was extremely cooperative.
Along the way, Doctor Shen was very cooperative and did not ask anything. The three of them started to lower their defenses and treated Doctor Shen very well. Whatever they ate and drank, they would share it with him first.
Doctor Shen saw how the three of them treated him and understood that they had no choice but to take him away. They were not bad people.
These three people brought him in the direction of Changyu, so his heart felt more at ease knowing that his clues were right.
The inn Jiang Yue and Xue Yan had arranged was called the Sending Paper Inn. The three of them might have stayed in this inn before. To prevent the three of them from feeling that something was wrong, the people in this inn naturally did not change their behavior. They only pretended to be guests and stayed for a few days.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan didn’t intend to show their faces in front of those three people.
Perhaps Prince Yi had specifically told the three of them to pay attention to their surroundings and even described their appearance. As soon as the three of them saw them, even if they weren’t sure if they were Jiang Yue and Xue Yan, they would immediately be more alert and feel that something was wrong.
After all, Prince Yi sent men of sacrifice to Xinyuan to kill Laicai and Xiuhua without hesitation before.
