As dawn approached, the group completely shook off the bandits. Instead of following Yin's plan to set up camp on the spot, they left and continued south.
They all knew in their hearts that if they stayed where they were, and the number of bandits continued to grow, they would all be wiped out.
"Fourth Brother, are we really out of danger?" Qingyan looked at the street scene rushing past the window, still feeling a little uneasy.
"Hmm." Yin regretted not keeping the children with him as well.
On Kangxi's side, all the children were gathered there. What would happen to his twins if anything went wrong?
"Worried about the children?!" Qingyan was also worried, but she didn't feel any worry, which proved that the children were fine.
"Yes, of course I'm worried. I wonder what the situation is with Father Emperor's troops!" Yin said directly.
The atmosphere in the carriage became somewhat awkward. Qingyan looked at Yin's uneasy appearance and became worried.
"Fourth Prince, are you hiding something from me?" Qingyan looked at Yin's appearance and felt that there must be something going on in the inner chambers.
Yin fell silent; he knew even more details about the whereabouts of the twins.
"Father has placed the twins by his side!" Yin said in a hoarse voice.
What? !
Snap!
Qingyan smashed the teacup in her hand on the ground. The twins were clearly said to be in a separate carriage.
“Even the Crown Prince was moved ahead of time. We’re going to be cannon fodder in front of them, and the children are with Father Emperor. What if they encounter danger there too?” Qingyan felt terrible when she thought about the children’s situation.
Emperor Kangxi said he would take care of the twins, but there was probably an element of exploitation involved.
"With Mother by my side, things should get better!" Yin said, his voice lacking confidence.
When Emperor Kangxi was in danger, Consort Tong certainly could not obstruct his imperial edict.
"Hmph!" Qingyan turned her head away from Yin, she was really angry. Kangxi's manipulation of the princes had completely enraged her.
Even young children were being used by Kangxi; how could she not be furious?
"Little darling, don't worry, I've made preparations!" Yin patted her back, intending to make her turn around.
"Yin, what if the children are in danger? He is your eldest son!" Qingyan glared angrily.
"Of course I know that Saito has been by the twins' side the whole time, so he's definitely not in danger. Besides, Hongxi has also been taken there and placed in the Crown Prince's carriage!" Yin was trying to ease the tension, but he never expected that he would hit Qingyan's biggest worry.
In the eyes of the royal family, even if the children are gone, there are plenty of women who can give birth to more.
"Ah Hun is with the children?" Qingyan asked in surprise.
"Yes, Father-in-law didn't want you to know, worried that it would upset you!" Yin also regretted it a little. If he hadn't let Qingyan know, the two of them wouldn't have argued like this.
"Even Father knows?" Qingyan turned around, looked at Yinwei with a slight frown, and asked.
“Yes!” Both Yin and Yin were familiar with the specific situation. Kangxi divided the people into three teams. The Crown Prince slept in the first team, where he would encounter the most dangers. The second team in the middle was the most easily overlooked. Kangxi personally led the team and kept many of his legitimate sons by his side.
"Where is Doshihui? Could he be with Father Emperor too?" Qingyan suddenly realized that she hadn't seen Doshihui recently.
"My elder brother has entrusted his children to Mother, so that she can take care of them!" Yin nodded.
Qingyan fell silent, pondering the current development of the situation.
"Fourth Brother, were those bandits we encountered real, or were they imposters?" Qingyan asked, pressing down on the silver needle net.
Yin shook his head: "I don't know for now. Judging from their appearance, they should be well-trained soldiers."
Qingyan's face darkened. Were these people specially trained by someone else?
"What are you planning to do now? They definitely won't give up so easily!" Qingyan leaned against him.
Her temper tantrums come and go quickly.
"We're making the most of our time, traveling day and night." Yin learned that the horses were being rotated frequently, and that the princes' horses were being cared for by special people and were traveling behind them.
Nowadays, the horses used to pull the carriages are provided by the post stations. At each post station, the horses are changed and the carriages continue on their way.
"Fourth Brother, where is your inkstone?" Qingyan asked anxiously, noticing that the horse was no longer the same as when it left the manor.
“There are dedicated people watching over them, so there’s no need to worry about their safety!” Yin said with emotion.
Moyan was the warhorse that had accompanied the two of them the longest, and they were very fond of it and would never give it up easily.
"That's good." Qingyan had just relaxed when the carriage suddenly stopped.
Due to inertia, she fell forward, and Yin caught her in his arms.
"Little darling, be careful!" Yin whispered in her ear.
"What happened again?" Qingyan's heart jumped into her throat.
"Your Majesty, the guards from Prince Zhi's side have come over. They say the guards are all too tired and hope to rest for two days!" Su Peisheng reported directly.
“Okay, where do you plan to rest, brother?” Yin asked directly.
"In the county town ahead, there is the Heyuelai Inn. Prince Zhi hopes to rest there for a couple of days," Su Peisheng said in a very low voice.
Qingyan twitched her ears. Was it going to Yuelai Inn again?
"Sisi, can't we go somewhere else?" Qingyan found it a bit strange. Why did they always have to stay at the Yuelai Inn?
“No, we should be more confident in the safety of Yuelai Inn,” Yin said with a sigh.
"Send someone over to talk to them." Qingyan agreed immediately. Every time there was an inspection, Yuelai Inn would suffer losses.
"Little darling, the Ministry of Revenue will provide you with the daily volume data after you check in!" Yin asked. "Could it be that the shop hasn't received it?"
She looked up at Yin's dark phoenix eyes, pondering how to respond to him.
"Tell me the truth!" Yin looked into her eyes and knew that there must be an inner chamber inside.
“Four... there is some silver, but it’s all empty accounts, there are no banknotes!” Qingyan said directly.
What? !
Yin frowned. What was going on? A worthless check?
"Are you sure?" Yin asked again.
"Don't you believe what I'm saying?" Qingyan was annoyed.
"No, I personally instructed my subordinates to go with the silver notes!" Yin wrote in his memorial, "Try to go with the silver notes as much as possible."
"It means there are difficulties with the silver notes, so we can only settle the accounts together later," Qingyan said directly.
Qingyan's face darkened; these people had profited from it.
