Chapter 55: Can I come back alive from this escort?
Su Wanyan sat in the carriage. Even facing an unconscious husband, she could not hide her surging emotions.
"I'm free! I'm finally free!"
Oh, although she has only been here for a few days, she feels really suffocated facing those scheming people. She also has to be careful all the time not to let others notice her abnormality. She has not even maintained her image well.
But no matter what, she finally left the imperial city and was about to start the exile dungeon.
Moreover, she could take advantage of Ji Xiaohan and sit in the carriage with him. It felt like she was going on a trip at public expense.
An hour later, the large army had only walked less than five miles outside the imperial city. Such a slow pace almost made Su Wanyan sleepy. She had an appointment with Rong Mama and Shaoyao to meet at Shili Pavilion. At this speed, wouldn't they walk until dark?
Su Wanyan changed her sitting position and yawned out of boredom. No one spoke. She reached out and poked Ji Xiaohan's handsome face, whispering, "Hey? Ji Xiaohan, when can the poison in your body be cured? I've already shared the antidote recipe. It's just a matter of preparing the medicine. I think you should wake up soon, right?"
Ji Xiaohan: "..."
If Ji Xiaohan hadn't wanted to remain unconscious in order to confuse those who were secretly following them, he really wanted to grab the woman's fingers that were moving around on his face and tell her that even if there was an antidote, it would take more than a day or two to prepare it. Moreover, they would not have a peaceful journey to Quanzhou this time.
As long as they are out of the imperial city, even if the secret guards clear the area in advance, the killers will probably still continue to come.
The thirty guards he selected were all his close guards in the army. Their mission was the same as Xiao Wu's, which was to protect Princess Xiao. In this life, he would do anything to bring this woman to Quanzhou safely. Because she risked her life to save him in the previous life, she was his only wife in this life.
Su Wanyan didn't know what Ji Xiaohan was thinking. As she spoke, she brought up Madam Rong and Shaoyao. "I wonder if they've arrived safely at Shili Pavilion to wait for us. Madam Rong's legs get cold when it gets cold. Did she know to prepare some warm clothes for herself? Shaoyao loves osmanthus cakes. Could this girl have only prepared chestnut cakes for me?"
Ji Xiaohan: "..."
Love chestnut cake?
If her maid didn't prepare some for her, she could ask someone to buy more when they arrived at the next city.
As Su Wanyan was talking, she felt a little hungry, and then she took out a piece of chestnut cake from her sleeve, actually from her space, and said, "Hey, it doesn't matter if you don't bring it, I prepared it in advance."
Ji Xiaohan: "..."
Xiao Wu has been following closely beside the carriage. No matter how exquisitely the carriage was made, there was always a faint sound coming from it. The little princess was hiding something on her body and had no intention of hiding it from them. She took it out in front of the master without fear of scaring the master.
There were a total of ten officers escorting the exiles this time, all of whom had their homes in the imperial city. Seeing the people from Prince Xiao's Mansion lagging behind the rest of the team, the guards looked as if they were facing a great enemy, silently gritting their teeth. If they had gotten the news earlier that someone from Prince Xiao's Mansion was involved in this mission of escorting the exiles, they would have transferred their shifts even with a common excuse like finding a wife to give birth to a child.
I don’t know if I can come back alive after this escort?
