But she knew clearly that she couldn't.

Whether it was her particularly unique way of changing her face or the fact that the daughter of the Grand Marshal was here, it was enough to arouse suspicion.

She suppressed the impulse in her heart, gave up the idea of ​​revealing her identity, and laughed slowly.

"What a coincidence! I am also going to Suicheng. Can I go with you, sir?"

Suicheng is an important border town, only three cities away from Dingbei Pass. If you want to go to Dingbei Pass, you must pass through Suicheng.

So, Su Qianxue was not lying.

"Sorry, no."

Unexpectedly, she was rejected.

The cold and handsome man looked down at her, with a hint of apology in his voice.

"Marriageable men and women should avoid suspicion. Going with them might tarnish the girl's reputation. Besides, I don't want to be misunderstood by my sweetheart. I hope the girl will understand."

With the previous series of preparations, when Su Qianxue heard him say "sweetheart", she naturally mistakenly thought he was talking about her.

Well……

The engagement had been cancelled for so long, but he was still unwilling to get close to other women in order to avoid her misunderstanding? The feeling of being favored was very good, and Su Qianxue couldn't resist it. Therefore, although she was clearly rejected, she was not angry at all, but instead felt a burst of secret joy in her heart.

"It's okay. I didn't expect that you are such a kind person who respects others' reputation."

Su Qianxue praised from the bottom of her heart and regarded this as Yun Wanchen's strength.

As for being rejected, it doesn’t matter.

If she can't go together, then she can't. At worst, she can just follow behind closely.

In short, no matter what, she would follow him and would never let him dump her.

Firstly, she still had a mission to accomplish. Although she didn't want to hurt him, she was now a tool of the system and had no human rights, no right to resist or refuse.

As long as she finds an opportunity, she will still complete the mission.

Secondly, traveling alone is lonely, boring, and full of dangers. How can it be compared with traveling with others? Having made up their minds, when Yun Wanchen and his servant set out on their journey, Su Qianxue immediately followed.

The roads were slippery due to the snow, and it was unsafe to ride horses, so the three of them walked, holding the horses.

"Sir, that girl is following behind."

Cang Yan glanced back, winked at Su Qianxue, then leaned close to Yun Wanchen and whispered something.

"Well, don't worry about it."

Yun Wanchen replied indifferently.

How could he not notice Su Qianxue's actions?

But, this road was not built by him, so can he stop people from leaving?

How overbearing and unreasonable must he be to do such a thing? Moreover, even if he stopped her and told her not to leave, with the system, she would always find a way to follow him. Rather than letting her act secretly, it would be better to keep it under his nose.

As for his previous refusal to travel with others, it was just an expression of his attitude, and did not mean that he would be able to really refuse.

After a long day, before nightfall, Yun Wanchen and Cang Yan arrived at a town called Linxi.

The town is not big, with only about two hundred households in total, and it is filled with a strong northern atmosphere.

It snowed and the streets were deserted, with only a few peddlers carrying baskets full of groceries and shouting loudly as they walked through the streets.

The cold wind blew, bringing with it an intoxicating aroma of wine, which aroused the gluttony in Cang Yan's stomach.

He led the horse and looked eagerly towards the southeast.

The Duke had guarded Dingbei Pass for many years, so they had been to this town many times. There was a tavern in the southeast of the town.

No one knew how the wine was brewed there, but it was mellow and rich, very strong and flavorful, and extremely enjoyable to drink. He had been thinking about it for a long time.

Now that I’m here, how can I miss it?

He swallowed, looked at Yun Wanchen in front of him, and spoke in a low voice.

"Sir, it's freezing and snowy here. We've been traveling all day and are cold and tired. How about we go over there and have something hot to drive away the cold?"

"Well, let's go."

Yun Wanchen had no objection to this.

Who wants to eat dry food when you can eat hot meals?

The two of them walked towards the tavern, and not far behind them, Su Qianxue was still following closely.

The Four Square Tavern.

The store door was wide open, and in the middle there was a red-hot iron stove, emitting scorching heat, making the store warm and comfortable.

Sitting on the brown table and chairs near the stove were a few big men of different builds and simply dressed, playing finger-guessing games with great concentration.

He didn't even notice someone coming in.

On the other side of this group of big men, there was another man drinking quietly alone.

The man was wearing a black and gold robe, with his back to the door, and instantly attracted all of Yun Wanchen's attention.

He paused, then raised his leg and walked towards the man.

Cang Yan, who was just about to find a table to sit down, said: "..."

He was slightly stunned and looked at Yun Wanchen in confusion.

The prince is aloof by nature and isn't the type of person who would proactively approach strangers to talk. Could it be that he knows that person?

"Brother, can I sit here?"

After getting closer, Yun Wanchen discovered that the man was holding a baby in his arms.

The little baby was delicate and pretty, with a pair of big black eyes like gemstones looking at him brightly.

Both the man and the little baby had very unfamiliar faces, and had never been seen before, but a sense of familiarity that penetrated deep into the bones suddenly surged up in her.

"please."

The man in front of him raised his head and smiled at him, then extended his hand in a gesture of invitation.

The man's appearance was ordinary, but his eyes were filled with a familiar and alluring evil.

Yun Wanye!!! Yun Wanchen’s face instantly turned dark.

Damn, it would be fine if this kid ran out by himself, but why did he bring my little sister out with him?

Also, when he left, these two guys were still in the mansion. Along the way, except for the night, he traveled almost in the wind and snow, and did not dare to delay at all, but these two guys were already waiting there.

How did they get ahead of him?

Before he could continue thinking, Yun Wanning's milky voice suddenly rang in his mind.

[Hey, second brother, look at the eldest brother, it seems that he recognized us. ]

【Um???】

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

【Why is Big Brother angry? 】

Yun Wanchen: “…”

"How else could you be angry? Angry that I brought you out here."

Yun Wanye poured a glass of wine and replied casually using his internal energy to transmit a message. Only Yun Wanning and Yun Wanchen could hear it.

Yun Wanchen: “…”

He is self-aware, but he is really brave. It's freezing cold and the road is desolate, but he is not afraid that something might happen to his little sister.

"Thank you!"

Yun Wanchen said something in a pretentious manner, lifted up his robe and sat next to Yun Wanye.

[Hey, big brother, don't be angry. I asked my second brother to bring me out, and my mother agreed.]

"Is mom awake?"

[Yes, not long after big brother left, mom woke up. It's no big deal. Big sister is waiting by her side. Big brother doesn't need to worry too much.]

"Um."

Yun Wanchen responded softly, and then used his inner strength to ask, "You left later than me, how come you are here?"

"Little sister, please explain to big brother. I need to save my inner strength."

Yun Wanye used his inner strength to say this nonchalantly, then he picked up the wine pot, poured a glass for Yun Wanchen, and also pretended to be unfamiliar with him and said, "Brother, please."

[Oh, OK! ]

Yun Wanning responded and immediately prepared to explain to Yun Wanchen with great interest.

However, before she could start, Cang Yan came over and looked at Yun Wanye and Yun Wanning with an inquiring and curious expression.

"Sir, do you know this warrior?"

Oh, this is really strange, why does he feel that this warrior is so familiar with that little baby?

It seemed as if he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember where.

"Um."

Yun Wanchen replied perfunctorily and waved his hand for Cang Yan to sit down. Cang Yan politely greeted Yun Wanye, and then the three of them began to clink glasses of wine.

When you are out, there are not so many rules. No matter Yun Wanchen or Yun Wanye, when they are drinking, they do not treat Cang Yan as a servant, but as an equal drinking buddy.

The three of them clinked glasses, while Yun Wanning, in Yun Wanye's arms, looked up at Yun Wanchen and told him the whole story in her heart.

[Brother, this is what happened. My second brother and I disguised ourselves to avoid the system and not reveal our identities, so that we can act more conveniently.]

[The woman disguised as a man that you and Cang Yan met last night was Su Qianxue in disguise.]

Hearing this, Yun Wanchen, who was holding the wine glass, paused and raised his brows slightly.

It is indeed Su Qianxue!!!

He guessed right.

In his mind, Yun Wanning's voice continued, just right to answer all his doubts.

[The Emperor issued a secret decree to transfer Mo Yuanhao to Dingbei Pass. In order to complete the task, the system instructed Su Qianxue to follow Mo Yuanhao.]

[Mo Yuanhao was too fast. Not long after leaving Gaojing, Su Qianxue lost him. Unexpectedly, she ran into you again in the wild mountains.]

[Then, the system temporarily issued a task for you. My second brother and I were worried, so we caught up with you.]

[As for why we left later than you, but arrived here earlier than you...]

[That's because, when I was bored, I carved a few teleportation formations for fun, and they just happened to come in handy today. My second brother and I teleported here directly, so of course we are faster than you.]

In order to prevent Su Qianxue from getting lost in the wilderness, the system kept navigating for her.

Yun Wanning could also see it, so she drew a map and marked the locations of Su Qianxue and Yun Wanchen, and showed it to Yun Wanye.

Thanks to her natural sensitivity to directions, Yun Wanye recognized Yun Wanchen's position at a glance, and taking into account the snowy weather, she made a rough estimate of their distance.

Yun Wanning learned from the conversation between Su Qianxue and the system that this woman had been following Yun Wanchen, no more than two hundred meters away.

So, she kept an eye on Su Qianxue's location and gave feedback to Yun Wanye in real time.

So, the brother and sister came to the tavern first and waited.

After listening, Yun Wanchen's eyes flashed with understanding, and he completely understood the cause and effect of the matter.

It turned out that yesterday was indeed an accidental encounter. He was not the main target of the enemy. He was just a bystander... (End of this chapter)
