On a dark and windy night, Zhao Ji took the two beauties and rode a few horses and left the capital.

The next day, news came from the palace that Zhao Ji was seriously ill and recuperating.

The Prime Minister and the Third Prince were still hesitant for a moment.

After observing for a few days, I found that Zhao Ji was indeed recuperating and did not even show up.

There are rumors everywhere now that Zhao Ji is extremely ill, in other words, terminally ill.

Even the sick can't get out of bed.

The third prince and the prime minister received the same news. They were both shocked and confused, and each thought that it was the other's fault that made Zhao Ji become what he is now.

Originally, this kind of misunderstanding could be explained away by the two of them meeting and talking it out, but unfortunately, there was a gap between them now, so they didn't bother to resolve the matter for the time being.

Moreover, both of them are very smart. Zhao Ji is an expert in martial arts and is very slippery. Now they feel that the other party is capable of bringing Zhao Ji to this point.

There must be a new talented person on their hands. Now the third prince and the prime minister are even more wary of each other.

To be precise, the Third Prince was unilaterally afraid of the Prime Minister.

The prime minister still has hope for the third prince. After all, he is the bloodline of his family. If the prime minister doesn't open his heart to the third prince, how can he open his heart to the emperor's real son?

Unfortunately, the Prince of Jin could not see clearly and was secretly trying to spy on the Prime Minister's power.

In the capital, after Zhao Ji left, a three-way balance of power was formed among the Prince of Jin, the Prime Minister, and the Emperor.

It was peaceful for a while.

Zhao Ji did not leave the capital without any preparation. The people Zhao Ji had promoted before were like his eyes and ears in the court. With these people in the capital, Zhao Ji felt more at ease.

The scenery along the way was quite nice. In order to facilitate his actions, Zhao Ji disguised himself as a young man from a wealthy family, and the two women pretended to be Zhao Ji's wives.

The three of them traveled along the way, and their pace was quite fast.

If he went to some more prosperous places, Zhao Ji would spend money to hire some slaves and guards.

Such a large scale demonstration will also make it easier to prevent some short-sighted people from coming over.

Otherwise, if it were just Zhao Ji and the two beauties, they would definitely be targeted by some people.

It’s no wonder that Zhao Ji’s strategy has been going on for so long and nothing has gone wrong.

Hu Rou and Ming Yue were very happy along the way.

One of them was a princess from the north and had never seen the land of fish and rice in the south; the other had never been out of the capital, so everything she saw along the way was new to her.

If Zhao Ji hadn't stopped them, they would probably have had to hire another horse team to load the things they bought.

But even so, the two women bought enough things during this period.

Usually, Zhao Ji would go to three or four towns, and then arrive at a large and prosperous town, and ask an escort agency to escort the things the two girls bought back.

This process of repeatedly resetting and filling the progress bar was very satisfying to the two women.

Along the way, Zhao Ji listened to the chattering of the two beauties, and even felt that he was not on a mission but on a spring outing.

"I didn't tell you how you played during this period, but we are about to enter the southern border area. You must be careful about everything and stop being so high-profile as before."

Zhao Ji carefully instructed the two beauties in a forest, and both women knew clearly what were the priorities.

"Don't worry, sir..." Mingyue began to make a promise.

As a result, Zhao Ji gave Mingyue a reproachful look: "What do you want to call me?"

Mingyue blushed and muttered softly, "Husband...isn't there anyone nearby?"

Along the way, Zhao Ji really enjoyed the two beauties vying to call him husband.

That's why I teased Mingyue on purpose.

Now he was joking and said, "If there's no one here, then don't shout? How do you know there's really no one here? What if the wall has ears?"

Mingyue was stunned by Zhao Ji's intimidation. Hu Rou, who had seen the world, was not so easily fooled.

"Sister, don't listen to his nonsense. If there really was someone nearby, why would he tell us all these things? You are so honest that you were stunned by him!"

Hu Rou was laughing so hard that her stomach hurt.

Mingyue's face turned red instantly.

Although they usually pretended to be a couple, many people in those towns called them husband and wife.

But the word "husband" just now was particularly shy.

Along the way, the three of them chatted and laughed and soon arrived at the next town.

Naturally there would be no problem with the pass prepared by the Emperor.

Soon the townspeople checked the passes and let the three people in.

The three of them had discussed it long before entering the town, and their current characters and stories are that Zhao Ji is a love-struck man who is accompanied by two beautiful wives, but they have no children after years of love. Moreover, he has taken a lot of medicinal herbs over the years and hired various miracle doctors at high prices, but to no avail.

So now Zhao Ji brought his two beautiful wives to southern Xinjiang to seek medical treatment.

It is said that there are a lot of strange people and strange things in southern Xinjiang. Although the methods are a bit weird, there is still a way after all.

With such character background stories, the three of them entered the town.

The name of this town is quite strange, it is called Witch Town.

It is rare for a city to be named like this.

Zhao Jilai had also investigated before, and found out that the reason why this town was called Witch Town was because hundreds of years ago, the town was overturned by an earth dragon, causing countless deaths and injuries. There was a witch who had been rescuing people and delivering medicine in the ruined city, so in order to commemorate this witch, the town was named this.

When they entered the town, Zhao Ji and his friends clearly felt that the clothing style was completely different from that in China.

Everyone here wears a lot of silver ornaments, and their clothes are extremely tight-fitting, outlining the graceful figures of the women. The men's clothes are also equally tight-fitting, outlining their strong muscles.

It can be seen that there are very few foreigners in this town.

So as soon as Zhao Ji and the other two entered the town, they attracted a lot of people's attention.

Some people even stood still, looking the three of them up and down carefully.

Zhao Ji and the two beauties had excellent acting skills and immediately showed an uneasy look.

The three of them quickly found the nearest inn and rented a house.

At the same time, I also asked the waiter.

Even if they were just pretending to ask, it was nothing more than asking what kind of town it was and whether there was any miracle doctor in the town.

Zhao Ji knew very well that in places like this where there were many foreigners, people would definitely stick together, which meant that all information would be transmitted very quickly.

Zhao Ji just wanted to spread the story of the three people through the waiter's mouth, so that it would be easier to carry out the subsequent plans.
