Chapter 487 He
When Qiao Rushi and his daughter returned to the old house, Qiao Jibai happened to see them enter the house, but just as he got off the horse, he heard someone calling him.
"Master Xiao Qiao!"
A man dressed as a guard swiftly dismounted from his horse and walked over. Qiao Jibai recognized this man; he was the guard who conveyed the emperor's will in the palace.
"Master Xiao Qiao, the emperor asks you to enter the palace immediately."
Qiao Jibai nodded slightly, "Got it."
Qiao Rushi had made thorough arrangements. The Qiao family had the best assassins dressed up as servants to escort them, and all their money was exchanged for silver bills. As long as they exchanged gold and silver at the Jin family bank, their location would not be discovered.
Lu Jinye, naturally, had to leave with them.
Qiao Rushi is very clear about Lu Jinye's abilities, and Yanyan will be safer with her around.
A curfew has been imposed in the capital since the emperor was assassinated. Half an hour before the city gates were closed, an extremely ordinary carriage successfully left the city gates.
The servant disguised himself as an ordinary citizen and everything went smoothly.
The Tianshu Camp, which had been keeping an eye on the Qiao family, did not realize that Qiao Wanyan had left the Qiao family's old house, because there was a secret passage leading outside the Qiao family's mansion.
"Miss, where did the master say he would send you? We are not going to Landu, are we? Landu is not bad. I heard that the scenery there is nice and suitable for living."
Zi Yuan always felt a little worried. The master had arranged so many assassins, and the top group of assassins were to accompany the young lady when she left the capital. Something big must be happening in the capital.
"We're not going to Landu, we're going to Beiming."
Zi Yuan opened her mouth wide, "Beiming? Isn't that King Jing's fiefdom?"
Qiao Wanyan said, "I heard that the weather in Beiming is a bit cold, but now it's the end of summer and the temperature is quite pleasant. But I heard that Yueling City is a very livable place, with four distinct seasons, but the summer is not as hot as the capital, and the winter is not as cold as the capital. Moreover, the Epiphyllums blooming there are very beautiful, so we can just pass by and take a look."
Zi Yuan responded softly. The young lady's words sounded very halfhearted, as if she was just trying to please her.
The young lady is concerned about the master and his wife.
"Miss, you are worried that the master and his wife will know about this. Why don't we go back? We will go out less and won't get into so much trouble."
Qiao Wanyan said calmly, "Father wants to send me out of the city because he has thought about it and thinks it is the best way to do so. I can't help Father with the affairs of the court, and if I stay in the capital, he will be worried about what to do next."
She would not insist on staying in the capital for the so-called filial piety. That was not filial piety, but a burden.
I'm afraid no one would have thought that Dad would send him or her away so suddenly.
The carriage traveled for two days and two nights without stopping. After leaving the capital, they changed to a carriage that had been prepared in advance. Although this carriage was not as spacious and comfortable as the one Qiao Wanyan had used for her previous travels, it had everything you needed inside.
During the two-day and two-night journey, Qiao Wanyan did not feel any bumpy discomfort at all.
Another night, the carriage stopped near a water source.
"Stay here and don't let anyone get close."
Qiao Wanyan gave these instructions. Lu Jinye was wearing a black robe and had long hair tied up. The loose hair on his forehead hid the emotions in his eyes. In the night, the moonlight was soft, and his overly white face looked somewhat harmless.
"knew."
Lu Jinye didn't say anything nonsense to deliberately upset her, and he hadn't stopped since he came out of the capital. Although she had been in the carriage, she couldn't stretch her body and hadn't washed comfortably.
Qiao Wanyan took off her outer skirt and went into the river. The water was flowing slowly and although it was a little chilly, it felt extremely comfortable after getting used to it.
The sweat was dispelled, she looked up at the glittering stars and suddenly frowned.
Sun Tian forgot to bring it...
Ziyuan sat on the shore, "Miss, what's wrong with you? Is the water uncomfortable?"
Qiao Wanyan shook her head and suddenly felt even more depressed.
Zi Yuan added: "Don't worry, young lady. The master and his wife are blessed by heaven and nothing will happen to them. As long as God doesn't deliberately make things difficult for the master, the master will be invincible!"
"Miss, please take a good shower right now, change into clean clothes and go back to the car refreshed. Dinner is ready, you don't need to eat dry food today, you can eat hot food! However, due to the emergency, we didn't bring so many cooks, so I have to inconvenience you."
Zi Yuan muttered, "Sun Tian should be good at other things besides osmanthus cake."
"Sun Tian is here too?"
Zi Yuan nodded, "Master knew that the young lady liked the sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by Sun Tian, so he sent it out of the capital a day in advance. After leaving the capital, Sun Tian has been accompanying us as a maid."
Qiao Wanyan suddenly sighed heavily, "There will never be a man in this world who treats me better than Daddy!"
Because she received incomparable fatherly love, Qiao Wanyan never gave her true heart to others easily.
She enjoys others' kindness to her and takes it for granted that others are kind to her.
Because she deserves it.
The self-confidence in her heart was accumulated for her by Qiao Rushi and Jin Xianyu since she was a child.
Qiao Wanyan: "Two days and two nights of non-stop travel, we will be in Yongzhou tomorrow night. Daddy said that grandpa will prepare things for me on the road, and we only need to walk for another ten days to reach Beiming."
It was the first time for her to travel non-stop from the capital to Yongzhou so quickly.
After Qiao Wanyan got ashore, she changed into a purple long gauze dress with wide sleeves. There were fragrant flower petals in the dress when she put it in her package. Now when she wore it, it had a light floral scent, which smelled extremely good.
Lu Jinye heard footsteps and turned around. He was standing under a tree in the bright moonlight. The lush branches and leaves blocked the moonlight and concealed the blush on the boy's fair cheeks.
She is incredibly beautiful, but even if I see her every day I still can't resist her.
Lu Jinye felt his face was a little itchy at the moment.
I wanted to kneel down and beg her to slap me.
"You are so slow..." Before he finished speaking, his expression changed slowly, and the dagger in his sleeve was thrown towards a certain direction almost the moment he finished speaking.
There was a crisp sound, which was the sound of the dagger being bounced off by the silver object.
It was dark at night, and the Milky Way poured out fine silver sand across the boundless sky.
A soft and beautiful painting, a group of people on horseback slowly emerge from the darkness.
Qiao Wanyan's eyes became gloomy and deep.
The leader of the group was a man known to everyone present.
The badges on the arms of the group of people behind him are the badges of the Imperial Envoy.
The Imperial Censorate was an organization directly under the emperor.
No one can mobilize it except the emperor.
The breeze blew, and the long hair tied up by the black jade crown shone lightly in the moonlight. His feather eyelashes drooped, and his ink-black eyes looked at the purple-dressed woman in the distance. His elegant and noble face was as calm as ever.
"Sister Wanyan, I'm here to take you home."
