The officer waved his hand to let them pass without carefully checking the carriage. After Xiang He and the others left, a group of people hurried over.
"We are now in the process of handing over. Are there any suspicious outsiders?" The officer in charge of the handover was very careful and wanted to know if there were any suspicious people as soon as he came.
The officer who released Xiang He said, "No. They are all people from the nearby towns and villages."
The yamen runners before were all in the same group as the chief who collected the money, so naturally they would not say that there were people coming from Yunzhou City.
"If they hear someone with a non-Dongqi accent, they'll detain them all. Especially those from Dashun, Nanli, and Yunzhou City."
"Yes." The captain only said yes, and still did not mention Xianghe and her group.
People in the small town were in panic.
People from all walks of life gathered here.
This is a thoroughfare connecting the north and the south.
Qin Wan and his group arrived at the entrance of the inn.
Ying Yi and Ying Er were already waiting here.
Seeing Qin Wan and the others get off the carriage, the two of them asked the inn servant to quickly pull the carriage to the back. When Ying saw someone looking over here, he hurriedly bowed and said loudly:
"Madam, are you staying at the hotel or just stopping by for a meal?"
"Stay in the hotel, do you have a top-class room?" Qin Wan glanced at him with a haughty look, looking like the wife of a wealthy family.
Chunhe stepped forward and spat.
"Any rules or not? Do you think you can have any say over our lady?" Chunhe threw the handkerchief in her hand fiercely.
Yingyi quickly bowed and apologized.
The people watching nearby knew at a glance that maids in wealthy families had many rules to follow, so they turned their heads away.
Pay attention to other places.
Got inside.
Xianghe and Chunhe were holding Yuebao and Xibao, with the two little ones, Dabao and Erbao, following behind.
Qin Wan and Yun Manyu walked behind Dabao and Erbao. Qin Wan felt a little nervous because she knew that Gu Beiheng and Zhan Wang were together.
After hearing what Ying San said about Zhan Wang, Gu Beiheng, Su Qi and the other two came to the town together.
Qin Wan hated him and loved him at the same time. She wasn't sure whether she hated him more or loved him more. All the beautiful dreams she had once had were ruined by that man, but now she had spent more than twenty years in pain.
Living like a zombie.
She admitted that she was timid.
"You go in first." Qin Wan stopped.
Su Qi heard Qin Wan and the others coming from the courtyard and quickly stood up and rushed outside. "Bei Heng, come out quickly. Mother might not want to see someone."
Zhan Wanggang stopped and looked at Su Qi and Gu Beiheng who rushed out of the door with embarrassment.
He thought about it, and finally gritted his teeth and went out.
If I were any thinner-skinned, I would be single for the rest of my life.
The War King walked at the back, passed by the people standing in front and talking to each other, and saw Qin Wan who was wearing a crabapple red double-breasted long gown and a red and gold flowered satin horse-faced skirt.
Qin Wan also saw the War King.
In the eyes of the War King, Qin Wan was still the same as when they first met. She was serene and majestic, with eyes that sparkled with stars, which made people want to enter her involuntarily.
Qin Wan only felt that her young man had a few more white hairs on his temples.
Their gazes met in the air, their collision evoking a thousand words. An inexplicable feeling spread through the air.
Su Qi saw Qin Wan and Zhan Wang standing there in fear, and gently waved her hand to let everyone leave.
I didn't want to ruin the moment of their reunion.
Gu Beiheng held Yuebao and Xibao in each hand. The two little girls stared at Gu Beiheng curiously, then at Dabao.
It seems like he's asking who this person is?
I'm not afraid of him and don't feel unfamiliar with Gu Beiheng at all.
Su Qi supported Yun Manyu and walked into the yard.
Everyone left quietly, leaving only Qin Wan and Zhan Wang looking at each other.
It seemed like there were a thousand words to say, but he didn't know where to start. Qin Wan wanted to question him, to scold him, but also to ask, "Are you okay?"
Tears welled up in her eyes, and she no longer had the courage to take another step or say a word.
Qin Wan just wanted to escape from here.
Turning around, the War King rushed over.
He held Qin Wan in his arms. "Wan'er, I'm sorry." At this moment, Zhan Wang realized that he was so greedy for Qin Wan's embrace.
After meeting Qin Wan, no matter how beautiful a woman was, she was nothing but dogtail grass on the roadside in his eyes.
A blush crept onto Qin Wan's cheeks, and she felt a sour, unpleasant feeling in her throat. She tried to push Zhan Wang away, "You don't have to apologize to me. We're just familiar strangers."
"Having the child was an accident. After all, we didn't have a matchmaker." Qin Wan didn't want to say anything more.
She was called a fiancée, but there was no engagement ceremony. Some were just secretly engaged, but that was punishable by being thrown into a pig cage.
Zhan Wang hugged Qin Wan tightly, his chin resting on her hair. He didn't let her leave his arms. "It's my fault. I wanted you to marry me. Wan'er, there hasn't been a single time in these years that I haven't blamed myself."
"If I had shared a little of the energy I put into the army with you, wouldn't everything be different for us today? Beiheng wouldn't have suffered so much."
The War King always thought that he had plenty of time in the future. When he was young, he fought on the battlefield and expanded the territory.
Qin Wan closed his eyes and said nothing. "Prince Zhan, it was just a mistake between us when we were young. It has been more than 20 years since we last met. I have long forgotten what happened between us when we were young. Let the past be the past."
After saying this, Qin Wan pushed him away.
"The reason I came to Dongqi is for my son. Beiheng is kind-hearted and cannot bear to do anything." Qin Wan's eyes were cold. She knew how the War King tortured Gu Beiheng for Long Xuancheng.
"My son narrowly escaped death not because of your generosity, but because he was lucky enough to survive."
Every word Qin Wan said struck Zhan Wang's heart.
He suddenly became depressed.
If it had been someone else, he would have died countless times.
"Is Long Xuancheng still alive?" Qin Wan looked at the War King in front of him coldly, his heart bleeding. "Because he is your adopted son, you chose to let him go."
The War King was stunned.
He wanted to reach out and hug Qin Wan, but he saw Qin Wan unconsciously take a step back, keeping a proper distance from him.
"You might say Beiheng is still alive and well. But that's because Beiheng is lucky and Su Qi is a good doctor. It's not because of you."
"I hope you won't stop me when I avenge Beiheng." After saying this, Qin Wan pushed open the door and walked into the yard.
Su Qi stood in the yard.
Qin Wan burst into tears after she came in. Su Qi walked over and hugged her. "Mom, follow your heart. We are on your side."
"The past can never be returned. Qiqi, help me into the house."
Su Qi helped Qin Wan into the house, and Chun He and others prepared the bath water.
While Qin Wan was washing up, Su Qi came out.
She opened the gate and found that the War King was still standing there, motionless, like a wooden sculpture with no expression on his face.
Su Qi didn't say anything, but she was also angry with the War King in her heart.
He always gave in to the people of the Dongqi royal family, but she and Beiheng would never give in. Those people would eventually have to pay the price.
Su Qi looked at the Zhan Wang's suddenly decadent body, which was stretched very long in the sunlight. She took a look and walked into the yard.
Gu Beiheng did not go out to visit King Zhan. He only had his two daughters in his eyes at this moment.
I hugged the eldest and second baby perfunctorily, and the rest of the time it was all about the two little girls.
"Yuebao, Xibao. I am daddy." Gu Beiheng kissed Yuebao and coaxed Xibao.
Holding this one, he couldn't bear to let go, holding that one, he thought it was the cutest. Yuebao and Xibao also liked him. At this moment, the two little girls touched Gu Beiheng's cheek in surprise. They also rubbed his cheek with their chubby noses.
Erbao shook his head speechlessly. "It's over. It's completely over."
"Daddy has never been normal since he met Yuebao and Xibao."
Dabao also sighed. "Yuebao and Xibao won't have to use their legs to walk anymore. As long as Daddy is around, their shoes won't get dirty."
Dabao and Erbao looked at each other and spread their hands helplessly.
