"Okay, then I'll go back with you to see your mistress first, and then you can send me back to Huayang County. You must keep your word and not lie to a child." Xiao Xier said innocently.
She looks so silly and innocent, I don’t believe she can’t paralyze them!
Tai Zhuo sneered in his heart, "Okay, we'll keep our word and not lie to children."
This kid is so stupid!
Can someone with this kind of brain become an empress?
“Gugugugu…”
Xiao Xier's stomach rumbled uncomfortably, "I'm hungry, is there anything to eat?"
Lu Yuan quickly took out a food box from the small table and said, "There are meat buns in it. My young master, just make do with this for tonight. I'll give you grilled fish tomorrow, okay?"
Looking at the cute little Xier, Lu Yuan coaxed her subconsciously.
Xiao Xier put down the quilt that she was holding tightly, picked up the meat buns in the food box, and found that the buns were cold, so she wanted to eat them directly.
But considering that she is now from a wealthy family, how can she eat cold buns?
And do these two really treat her as their master?
He glanced at the steaming tea stove on the coffee table and handed the meat bun to Tai Zhuo, "Heat it up for me. The bun is cold and I'll have a stomachache if I eat it."
"Young master, let me do it." Lu Yuan wiped his hands, took the meat bun, and placed it on the teapot lid to heat it up.
Xiao Xier is not stupid. She took out the osmanthus cake from the food box and started eating it first.

An hour later, Xiao Lingyu and his group arrived at the post station where Tai Zhuo had stayed.
At this time, the sky was very dark and there was not a single star in the night sky.
"Anger, let's stay here tonight and set off again tomorrow morning."
"Lei Xiao, take this bottle of fragrance dew and go find out."
Lei Xiao walked up to the postman in charge of the fodder and showed his ID card. "Among the people and vehicles coming to the post station today, has anyone smelled this fragrance?"
The Xihanxiang was opened, and the front yard of the inn was soon filled with Xihanxiang.
"I've smelled it before. It's this smell."
"Who, what time, do you remember?"
The postman thought for a moment, "More than an hour ago, three carriages arrived with a large amount of food and fodder. They seemed to be in a hurry and stayed for only half a cup of tea before leaving."
"Have you ever seen a little girl over three years old?"
The postman shook his head. "No, the important people in the carriage didn't get out... They also asked for a thick mattress."
"Princess, they came here more than an hour ago."
Xiao Lingyu took Xi Hanxiang and put it away. "They've been taking the official road south to Longcheng. We'll catch up with them soon. Take some people to check the terrain ahead. There are several small roads leading to Longcheng."
"yes!"
After Lei Xiao and his men left, two large tables of food were quickly served.
"Ang'er, eat quickly. Once you're full, we can rest early."
"Mother, if we delay here for another night, we may not be able to catch up with my sister."
"Don't worry, we can catch up. If they take the small road, their journey will be very slow, and they can't travel overnight, so they won't stop to rest."
"My sister must be terrified right now. Will those people hurt her?"
"They don't dare! Xiao Xi'er once summoned a lot of ants to go to Cui Mansion to look for your third brother."
Only then did Su Ning'an pick up his chopsticks and start eating his meal with peace of mind.
Shortly after the meal, Lei Xiao and others returned to the post station.
"How is it? Are there any paths we can take?"
"There are three! I have already arranged for people to chase them. Their whereabouts will be discovered tonight."
At this time, Tai Zhuo and his group were continuing on their journey in the dark with no intention of stopping.
Xiao Xier held on to the mattress tightly, fearing that she would be thrown off.
The carriage turned several times and finally stopped in a thorny area.
Lu Yuan led his men to move the fallen tree away, revealing a dirt road.
After the carriage passed, Lu Yuan and others restored the tree to its original state and cleaned up the wheel tracks.
After walking a hundred meters, he stopped.
"Sir, we have arrived."
"Okay, let's all rest and set off at dawn."
Tai Zhuo glanced at Xiao Xier who still had her eyes open.
"My dear, go to bed quickly. You have to get up early tomorrow."
Don’t even think that your mother’s people will find this place!
Xiao Xier quickly closed her eyes and tried several times but failed to open the valve.
Did this person do something while she was asleep? !
Xiao Xier did not give up. She took a deep breath and continued.
Tai Zhuo breathed in the intermittent fragrance in the carriage and fell into a deep sleep.
Lu Yuanshou stood outside and didn't dare to sleep. The princess was so smart that she would definitely send someone to chase him in the middle of the night.
Although this is a secret path they discovered, this is Beiyi after all, and the people of Beiyi may be able to find it.
Half an incense stick later, the sound of horse hooves came from the diagonal rear. As it was very quiet at night, the sound of horse hooves was unusually loud and woke up Tai Zhuo and others.
It must be her mother who came to look for her!
Xiao Xier was so happy that she almost shouted out loud.
Don’t shout!
Otherwise it would be revealed that she was pretending!
The sound of horse hooves came closer and closer, and then quickly disappeared.
The imperial guard Zhang Tao on horseback took a deep breath and did not smell the scent of Xi Hanxiang.
There are thorns all over the road ahead, and it is impossible for anyone to pass through.
Zhang Tao looked around with the lantern in hand, then turned around and went back.
The sound of horse hooves gradually faded away, and Xiao Xier's heart sank.
The sound of horse hooves isn't far from here, I should be able to smell her fragrance!
The carriage clearly smelled delicious, how could this happen?
It turns out that being blocked will affect the diffusion of fragrance!
"Commander Lei, we chased them all the way but couldn't find any trace of them, nor did we smell any scent of Xihanxiang."
"My people took the official road but couldn't find their whereabouts!" Lin Yu walked over.
