Yun Chan?
Xie Zhi and Lin Xuan exchanged a glance.
Lin Xuan curled his lip: "He's clever enough to know that Yuan Xiaoyao needs to bring medicine."
With such a large population, Huai Shui City also has a huge demand for medicine.
It's not easy to find them all in Beijing in a short time.
However, Yun Chan, a sickly man who has been taking medication for years, actually managed to find...
Not to be outdone, Lin Xuan took a bundle off his back and tossed it to Yuan Yao: "Catch this."
"What is this?" Yuan Yao asked, gripping the bundle tightly.
Lin Xuan said, "Money."
money?
Yuan Yao shook out the burden.
"Stop shaking, it's not much." Lin Xuan said, "This money was raised by me, Xie Zhi, Huaiyao, Huairou, and Jiang Chengyan."
Considering you can't carry it, I only took the silver notes.
Wow!
Did everyone chip in to give her money?
Yuan Yao was especially happy and touched.
Clutching her bundle, she said happily, "Thank you everyone! When I get to Huaishui City, I will definitely tell the people there who have been affected by the disaster that many people in the capital are thinking of them!"
Xie Zhi glanced at the sky: "Xiao Yao'er, let's set off."
He had just finished speaking when the ground trembled slightly.
Xie Zhi immediately stopped smiling and said warily, "A cavalry unit is coming..."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan also went on alert.
Soon, more than twenty men in black, riding horses, approached this side.
These people were all dressed in black, close-fitting clothes, and their faces were covered with black cloth.
Upon seeing this, Yuan Yao spoke up: "Remnant Wind."
Canfeng, also dressed in a dark, sleek outfit, rode forward on horseback.
Upon seeing Canfeng, the men in black dismounted and knelt on one knee in Yuan Yao's direction, saying, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
Yuan Yao: "?"
Even among those who are nine thousand years old, she is still considered a young master.
Now, in front of the Assassin's Guild, she has been directly promoted to the position of master.
Without losing a single soldier, he recruited a group of assassins as his subordinates.
This feeling is pretty great!
Well, it's a bit of a waste of breath...
She cleared her throat: "Get up, everyone."
After saying that, she looked at Canfeng and said, "Canfeng, I'm leaving these people to you to take care of."
The lingering wind nodded.
He counted the number of people and then said, "You will be divided into two teams, one team will be responsible for the daytime and the other team will be responsible for the nighttime."
In case of trouble, the princess should be given priority.
The assassins responded in unison, "Yes!"
A large group of people headed towards Huai River City...
Initially, Yuan Yao planned to divide the supplies into several batches and transport them separately.
After all, a group of too many people would attract too much attention and could easily attract bandits or the like.
However, after much thought, she felt that transporting them separately would be more dangerous.
If something unexpected happens, she won't be able to help from that distance!
So they simply called up the members of the Assassin's Guild, along with a few bodyguards and about a dozen disguised Imperial Guards.
It's safer to keep things under your own nose...
They set off late, and that night, the group rested in the towns along the way.
The next day, we continued our journey...
With Xie Zhi and Lin Xuan by our side, the journey became much more interesting.
The child has an exceptionally high level of energy.
Along the way, Xie Zhi led Lin Xuan, raiding bird nests and swatting wasps...
Yuan Yao deeply felt that Xie Zhi didn't want to keep vigil, so he deliberately came to see her off!
That day.
The convoy stopped by the river to rest for half an hour and have lunch.
Xie Zhi picked up a plump fish and swaggered over: "Little Yao'er, grilled fish, want some?"
As if by magic, he pulled out two lotus leaves he had picked on the road.
“Eat!” Yuan Yao said happily.
Xie Zhi took out a small knife, removed the fish scales, gills and internal organs, took out a small porcelain bottle from his pocket, sprinkled some powder on the fish, then wrapped the fish in a lotus leaf and tied it with grass leaves.
Danqing silently lit a fire nearby.
Xie Zhi threw the fish wrapped in lotus leaves into the fire and washed his hands.
Yuan Yao asked curiously, "Xie Zhi, you can actually cook?"
Xie Zhi wiped the water off his hands, smiled, and turned around: "Yes, I can."
"You're so amazing!" Yuan Yao exclaimed. "You can cook at such a young age!"
Small?
Boys dislike it most when people say they are small.
Xie Zhi couldn't help but reach out and pat Yuan Yao's head: "The road is rough, so we can only grill fish for you to eat."
"If there's a chance in the future, your brother will cook you a big meal!"
"puff……"
Brother Zhi?
How vain of you!
Yuan Yao dodged his hand and said in a childish voice, "Your hands smell fishy, don't rub them on my head!"
"Really?" Xie Zhi withdrew his hand and sniffed at the tip of his nose: "What's this smell?"
Little Yao'er, let me tell you, I once lived with my father in the army camp. Those soldiers, when they were training, would not bathe for more than a month, and they couldn't even wash their feet.
Every day, after training, I would fall asleep immediately.
That foot odor and body odor... ugh, it could cure my chronic rhinitis.
Yuan Yao: "..."
She could almost smell it.
She had no desire to know about the man's smelly feet and body odor.
but……
Looking at Xie Zhi's healthy complexion and bright eyes, she couldn't help but ask, "Xie Zhi, do you really enjoy life in the military?"
"I love it!" Xie Zhi replied without hesitation, "Marching into battle is much more interesting than studying!"
Yuan Yao agreed with this.
She nodded: "I don't like studying either."
In particular, having already graduated from university, suddenly returning to kindergarten with a bunch of little kids, starting from writing their own names...
Suddenly, Xie Zhi chuckled.
He turned his head and said brightly, "Studying is very boring, but fortunately, Xiao Yao is very interesting."
Yuan Yao: "?"
Just then, the sound of horses' hooves rang out.
Canfeng led a group to scout ahead.
Along with Canfeng was Lin Xuan, who couldn't sit still any longer.
After tying up the horse, Canfeng led Lin Xuan over.
"How is it?" Xie Zhi asked.
Canfeng said, "Three miles ahead, there's a landslide, and the carriage can't get through."
collapse?
Yuan Yao glanced around.
The ground was still wet.
A few days ago, there was a heavy rain here.
but……
This is an official road. It's collapsed. It shouldn't have been like this for several days and it still hasn't been fixed.
Don't the local officials send anyone to smooth things over?
Yuan Yao thought for a moment and asked, "Is the area of the landslide very large?"
Canfeng replied, "The official road was buried for about twenty meters."
About twenty meters...
That's quite long.
"We'll have to take a detour," Xie Zhi said.
Canfeng nodded in agreement: "I have found a mountain path. Although it is not wide, it is just wide enough for a carriage and a horse to pass through."
Yuan Yao stood up: "Let's not delay, let's get going."
Taking a detour will take more time on the road.
Therefore, we need to hurry on our way.
Xie Zhi glanced at the fish in the fire: "Xiao Yao'er, wait another half an incense stick's time. The fish will be cooked in half an incense stick's time."
Half an incense stick...
Yuan Yao stared at the fire and silently swallowed.
The fish already has a faint, delicate aroma.
But it's getting late...
Moreover, the weather isn't very good.
It looks like there was going to be a heavy rain last night...
After a moment's hesitation, Yuan Yao frowned slightly and said, "Xie Zhi, you can grill fish for me again next time..."
However, every moment we delay on the road might increase the danger to my father…
After speaking, she looked at Xie Zhi with some guilt.
A fleeting look of disappointment crossed Xie Zhi's eyes.
However, he quickly smiled and patted Yuan Yao's head: "Little Yao is right, I'll grill fish for you again next time."
"Put out the fire, then get going!"
