Chapter 1663 Late Night Inn
When they set out on the road again, Zhan Luoying was still surrounded by the guards and followed behind them not too far away.
It wasn't until Xia Fuyi looked back for the fifth time that Lian Tang finally couldn't help but ask,
"What are you looking at?"
"One person is missing."
Xia Fuyi said lightly.
"What's the meaning?"
Lian Tang didn't understand, so he just turned back in the direction of her gaze, and saw only the exquisite carriage and the guards who were still very high-profile.
Xia Fuyi retracted her gaze and explained lightly,
"There were sixteen guards around her yesterday, but only fifteen remained this morning. The missing guard must have left last night."
Lian Tang was stunned for a moment, and looked at her in shock.
"When did you count his guards?"
"No need to count, just take a look and you'll know."
Xia Fuyi leaned against the shaft of the carriage, with one leg hanging outside and swaying, looking very leisurely.
Lian Tang's expression turned serious.
"Are you sure? Someone is really missing, and it happened last night?"
"Sure,"
After Xia Fuyi finished speaking, she noticed his expression and asked,
"What's wrong?"
Lian Tang did not answer, but just turned his head to look inside the carriage.
The young master has a special identity, and his departure from Chiwei this time was completely secret. The pursuits he encountered along the way have made him like a frightened bird. If what Xia Fuyi said just now is true, then they have to be on guard.
I wanted to remind the young master, but then I thought that the people inside must have heard what Xia Fuyi said just now.
The young master will arrange it freely.
Lian Tang thought of this and raised and lowered the whip of his horse, speeding up the journey.

The carriage traveled quickly all the way, and after two full days, it finally arrived at the last small town outside Feihua City.
It was already night when we arrived at the place.
Finally, they were about to reach their destination, and the group, who had been sitting in the carriage for several days, finally felt relieved.
Before Li Chi and the others got off the carriage, Zhan Luoying had already rushed into the inn.
"Waiter! Bring us tea, food, and wine! Hurry up!"
Zhan Luoying and others had been following their car from a distance all the way. At first, Lian Tang was very wary, but after two days of peace and tranquility, and Zhan Luoying's carefree and arrogant young lady demeanor, he finally relaxed.
The number of her guards did not change, and the guard that Xia Fuyi mentioned had disappeared did not come back.
Lian Tang felt more and more that either Xia Fuyi had seen it wrong, or Zhan Luoying had just sent someone out to carry out a mission that night.
So Lian Tang no longer felt wary of the fact that Zhan Luoying stayed in the same inn with them again.
Zhan Luoying ate and drank in the lobby, while Lian Tang and his group, who had eaten some dry food on the way, went straight upstairs to their rooms, closed the door and rested.
·
It's late at night.
The lobby of the inn was empty. The guests who had enjoyed drinks in the evening had already returned to their rooms to rest. Only a waiter was left dozing off behind the counter.
In the air so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, there was suddenly an extremely subtle sound of a door opening.
Coming from a room upstairs, almost silent footsteps crossed most of the corridor, paused for a moment in front of another door, and then disappeared at the end of the corridor.
·
The moment the window was opened, Xia Fuyi suddenly opened her eyes.
She held the sword that she always carried with her and blocked it horizontally, but did not touch any weapon.
Only large flakes of light red powder scattered in the air and flew into her nostrils before she could hold her breath.
