Chapter 81
On the way, Nanny Chen curiously asked what happened just now. Lu Xingwan felt that this kind of thing should not be said too much, otherwise it would easily offend the gods, so she passed it vaguely.

Although Nanny Chen still had doubts in her heart, she didn't continue to ask.

Early the next morning, the weather was fine, and the old man with the car said that there was no rain today, so you can travel with confidence.

Nanny Chen and Guanshi Liu took care of everything early in the morning, and after Miss Lu had breakfast, the convoy drove out of Gulou County in a leisurely manner.

The moment he left the city, Lu Xingwan lifted the curtain of the car and looked back at the city gate, with some expectation and curiosity in his eyes.

Seeing this, Wen Shu couldn't help but arouse a little curiosity in her heart. She has experienced such mysterious things, so she is more in awe than ordinary people.

Is that boy really a mountain god?

She was lost in thought.

Ten days later, the temperature gradually rose, the vegetation revived, and the roadsides were gradually green. Wen Shu and others also arrived in Hanoi County, Huaizhou County, which is less than a hundred miles away from Cangzhou.

Wiping the last ray of light in the sky, the convoy drove into Hanoi County.

Hanoi County is a small and impoverished county with a small town and a small population. After Guanshi Liu entered the city, he directly hired the largest inn in the county, Honglai Inn, and then they asked the inn waiter to help buy things non-stop. .

Because from Hanoi County to Cangzhou Prefecture, there is no county or county city within a hundred miles for a temporary rest.

There are Chongshan counties on both sides of the official road. In order to avoid staying overnight, they plan to speed up the rest of the road. Except for going to the toilet, they try not to stop halfway, so they have to prepare food in advance.

Also, if there is a sudden acceleration, the carriage will inevitably bump violently. Miss Lu is delicate and frail and cannot bear such hardships, so she has to prepare some motion sickness medicine or cushions to alleviate this situation.

Wen Shu unloaded the burden from his shoulders, but felt a little uneasy in his heart. Before he left, the words of Grand Duke Lu kept ringing in his mind. Since he had repeatedly instructed and sent so many guards to protect him so solemnly, it means that the road must be safe. is dangerous.

But along the way, except for some small episodes, it was basically smooth sailing.
Then it is very possible that the danger lies in this last section of the road!
Thinking of this, she didn't sleep well at night, and when she woke up the next day, her eyes were turning blue.

When Lu Xingwan saw it, he couldn't help wondering: "What's the matter, little lady? Why are your eyes turning blue, but what are you worried about?"

Wen Shuqiang forced a smile, seemingly unintentionally said: "Miss, I heard from Manager Liu yesterday that the rest of the road is very desolate, and there are many mountains on both sides. Will there be bandits in the mountains?"

She thought about it all night, and finally felt that the only thing that could make Mr. Lu send so many guards and make her secretly watch out for was a large number of bandits, otherwise ordinary little thieves wouldn't have to spend so much trouble.

"This." Lu Xingwan paused while combing his hair, "I heard about it in the early years, but three years ago, the prefect of Huaizhou led people to suppress it once, and I haven't heard much about it since then."

"Oh, that's it, then I'm relieved." She said so, but she didn't really let go of it in her heart.

Lu Xingwan laughed and said: "So the young lady is worried about this, don't worry, I have walked this road in the past, and I have never encountered a bandit, but there are bandits who saw my Weiyuan Hou's mansion playing The flag, more or less have to sell two cents of face."

Wen Shu smiled and didn't speak any more, she was indeed thinking secretly.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Nanny Chen came in with a soup to prevent motion sickness: "The kitchen has just boiled, everyone, come and drink a bowl."

As soon as the decoction approached, it exuded a strong medicinal smell, which Wen Shu was not used to.

She has been in good health since she was a child, and rarely took medicine, but she was also afraid that she would get motion sickness and drag everyone down, so she didn't want to anymore, so she pinched her nose and dried it in one gulp.

Miss Lu was different, she didn't get sick even after drinking the medicine, maybe because she was used to taking the medicine, her face didn't look different when she drank it, as if she was drinking ordinary tea instead of soup.

After eating the soup, the convoy set off again, but when it was about to leave the city gate, it passed by a canopy carriage
After the two carriages passed each other, the curtain inside the canopy carriage was lifted by a pair of bare hands, and a woman in green clothes poked her head slightly, watching the convoy gradually leaving the city gate, with a strange smile on her lips.

“What a pity”

Two quarters of an hour later, the sun was gradually rising, and a team of carriages was galloping on the official road, which was not counted as official wealth.

Lu Xingwan, who was in the carriage, leaned against Nanny Chen's arms with a weak face, her face turned pale, and she held a brocade handkerchief in her hand, covering her mouth from time to time, as if she wanted to retch.

Neither Wen Shu nor Nanny Chen looked very pretty, but they were physically stronger than Miss Lu, and although they felt uncomfortable, they could still try their best to support them.

Nanny Chen hugged Lu Xingwan on one side, and firmly grasped the carriage with the other hand, while Wen Shu held a copper basin in both hands and handed it to Miss Lu, ready for her to spit it out at any time.

"It's uncomfortable for the eldest girl, why don't you go at the original speed." Wen Shu said with a pale face, "Although sleeping in the wild is not good, but if this continues, the eldest girl may have to die first. .”

Why isn't Nanny Chen worried and distressed, just
"Persevere, keep going. Manager Liu is also ordered by his elder brother. Before he came here, his elder brother told him that this last hundred miles should not be slow if he can go fast." Lu Xingwan covered his mouth powerlessly and said, "Although I don't know what's going on. Intentions, but brother will never harm me, just keep going!"

Before she finished speaking, she already vomited out with a "wow".

Wen Shu subconsciously turned his face aside.

The carriage was immediately filled with a sour smell, and Lu Xingwan felt even more sick when he smelled it.

Just as Wen Shu was considering whether to call for a stop, and when he asked Miss Lu to get out of the car to get some air, she heard the driver outside the curtain squeak, and the carriage stopped.

It's just in time!

Wen Shu sighed, and immediately realized something was wrong.

They didn't call to stop, logically the driver would not stop without permission, unless something happened!

Thinking of this, she hastily opened the curtain of the car and looked out, but when she saw it, her heart was beating like a drum, and her heart was pounding.

The main carriage they were riding was in the middle of the team, and there were escort carriages on the front, rear, left, and right sides. At this time, all the carriages on the front, rear, left, and right sides stopped, and on the official road directly in front, dozens of strong soldiers with swords stood horizontally. Chinese.

Manager Liu was tremblingly approaching to exchange greetings and negotiate.

"Several heroes, this is?"

The leader was a bearded man with a full face, he sneered and said, "I'm here to buy Lu Cai."

Liu Guanshi's complexion changed, and he immediately said seriously: "My master is the Weiyuanhou Mansion in the capital, and I hope the masters will give me face."

Hearing this, the bearded Hu said with a strange smile: "This is really a coincidence. Anyone who passed by in the past two days said that it was the Weiyuan Marquis's Mansion. They had already sold face twice before, and they all said that the matter was only three."

"Oh, you guys misunderstood. We are the real people from the Marquis of Weiyuan. The ones in front are all fake. If you don't believe me, you guys, look at the flag on the car."

The bearded man said without raising his eyes, "Men can't read."
