"Let me warn you, the road conditions here are good, with guardrails and roads. Your road has none, it's full of potholes and grass, and you can't see clearly. What if you rush off the cliff..."
"Anyway, just be careful and don't drive so recklessly." Ruan Jingye advised.
"I understand." Xiao Shunan nodded and turned the steering wheel, wondering if he really heard it.
After spending the past few days together, Ruan Jingye has gotten to know Xiao Shunan's personality a little better. He promises well, but he is very reckless when doing things.
Even more unruly than him.
But this kid is really brave.
"Uncle, are you guys ready?" Ruanruan ran over holding a vase, followed by Xiaogan and Ruan Qichuan.
"Okay." Ruan Jingye opened the car door and got out.
"Xiao An, go back to Gan Country first and let Xiao Gan take over this car." Ruan Qichuan said.
Xiao Shunan got out of the car and looked back at the steering wheel reluctantly.
Xiao Shunan returned to Gan Country through the vase and told Xiao Qinbei about this.
"You can just take Ruanruan and Xiaogan back to Beijing quietly. Your father still has to go south with Prince Qing." Xiao Qinbei patted his shoulder and said.
Without him and Prince Qing on the road, those who were chasing them would never find Ruanruan and the others, so they were relatively safe.
"As for Prince Qing..." Xiao Shunan said as he thought of something.
Prince Qing would definitely be unhappy if they just left like that. Before, Prince Qing sent people to hunt them down and wanted to take Ruanruan away. If Prince Qing knew about this, he would definitely send people to stop them.
"It's okay. I can handle this matter. I will buy some time for you. You can go quickly." Xiao Qinbei didn't think there was anything wrong.
Most of the people in the team were from Prince Xiao's Mansion, and the Jinyiwei were all his second brother's men. As for Prince Qing's followers, they were no problem at all.
Xiao Shunan nodded, "Okay, I understand. Take care of yourself, Dad."
"Go ahead." Xiao Qinbei looked at him and said.
Xiao Shunan ran into the woods holding the vase.
Two days passed.
The carriage was empty, and every time it was meal time, someone would go in to deliver food to Ruanruan and the others, but no one came out, and no sound was heard. At first, everyone thought it was normal, but later they gradually realized that something was wrong, and began to pretend like Xiao Qinbei.
This quickly aroused the suspicion of Eunuch Liu.
"It's strange that the young doctor and the prince haven't come out of the carriage?" Eunuch Liu stared at Ruanruan's carriage for a whole day and felt that something was wrong.
"This kid is a playful kid, so how can he stay in this little carriage all day long?"
The person next to him said, "Grandpa, it's so cold outside, and the child is afraid of the cold. I'm afraid the little doctor is asleep now."
"It's just lunch time, and the little doctor is sleeping so early?" Eunuch Liu asked in confusion.
The person next to him said, "The little doctor is just a hungry child, so he has already eaten."
Eunuch Liu carried the tray onto the carriage and placed the porridge on the low table. "Your Highness, please enjoy your meal."
Prince Qing coughed lightly, stared at the bland porridge on the table, and said, "Later, go and get Ruanruan to come over for me."
They are about to arrive in Jingzhou. Once they get there, Xiao Qinbei will definitely let Xiao Shunan take Ruanruan back to Beijing first. They have to come up with a countermeasure before that.
After thinking about it recently, I feel that the best way is to keep the child with him for the time being.
As long as she stays with him, everything will be fine. Even if Xiao Qinbei wants to take her away, it will depend on whether he agrees.
"Just say that this prince is seriously ill and exaggerate everything."
If Xiao Qinbei wanted to forcibly take the child away, he would be disregarding the life and death of the prince and would be guilty of treason.
Eunuch Liu nodded and said, "I'll go right away."
Outside the carriage, Eunuch Liu brought a few attendants with him.
He stood in front of the carriage that Ruan Ruan was riding in, bowed and saluted, and said in a loud voice: "Please ask the little doctor to treat His Highness. His Highness is currently suffering from a high fever that won't go away. It is really unbearable."
But no one inside responded to him.
Eunuch Liu repeated it again, but still no one responded.
He then realized something was wrong and was about to get on the carriage.
The attendants and soldiers around him only glanced at him out of the corner of their eyes, and Cang Xuan walked forward to stop him.
"Father-in-law, the young doctor is resting and cannot be disturbed."
"Your Highness is seriously ill now. Is her sleep more important than His Highness's? If you delay His Highness's treatment, all of you will be considered the true murderers who plotted to murder His Highness. His Majesty will not forgive you!"
Eunuch Liu said nothing, and hurriedly walked around Cang Xuan and lifted the curtain, only to find that the carriage was empty.
"Where are they? Where did the little genius doctor and His Highness go?"
"I'm asking you a question, but where are you? If you dare to keep silent about it..."
Eunuch Liu hadn't finished speaking.
"They have already returned to Beijing first." Xiao Qinbei rode over and said.
"What? Prince, you actually let the young doctor return to the capital without telling His Highness." Eunuch Liu frowned and stared at Xiao Qinbei.
"My Lord, that's too much."
Xiao Qinbei said calmly, "Prince Qing is still seriously ill. How dare I bother him with such a trivial matter?"
"Besides, they are not from the same group as us. It's no problem to let them return to Beijing first."
Prince Qing, draped in his cloak, stared at Xiao Qinbei with a pale face, gnashing his teeth in anger as he berated him, "How dare you, Xiao Qinbei! Why didn't you report this to me beforehand? Do you still have any regard for the royal family? Do you even take me seriously?"
"Don't be anxious, Your Majesty. The reason I let Ruanruan go first is for the sake of the country, for everyone, and most importantly, to protect Ruanruan."
Xiao Qinbei looked down at him and continued, "We killed corrupt officials on His Majesty's behalf, so we must have offended many people. If we let Ruanruan follow us to Jingzhou, we will definitely be attacked. If anything happens to Ruanruan, it will be a loss for the entire Gan Kingdom, and His Majesty will surely be sad."
"So I decided to let them leave secretly without anyone knowing."
"I hope Your Highness can understand. I am also considering Your Majesty and Gan Country. There is a little miracle doctor in Gan Country who can cure the plague."
"You..." Prince Qing was furious. He took a deep breath, covered his mouth and coughed violently. He kept coughing until his face turned purple and blue. Xiao Qinbei thought he was really dying.
Xiao Qinbei said, "Your Highness is weak, so please focus on your health. Don't get angry and hurt yourself. Hurry and get into the carriage. I'll take care of everything, don't worry."
The original meaning of this sentence is that if you are sick, just stay at home and don't worry about anything else.
Prince Qing finally stopped coughing, but after hearing what he said, he gasped for breath several times before slowly recovering.
Eunuch Liu was so frightened that he quickly helped him into the carriage.
“Damn it!”
Prince Qing had just sat down on the couch when he glanced at the porridge on the table and threw it to the ground.
"Ahhhh!" He howled with his eyes red and his head in his hands.
Sooner or later he will kill Xiao Qinbei!
Kill Xiao Qinbei!
