The clouds are moving slowly and the sun is setting in the west.

In the evening, the bright red afterglow falls on this quiet village.

The farmers outside gathered their hoes, stopped spring plowing, and went home to eat.

Zhang Tian had just finished shopping for Shen Qingjia outside and rode back on his horse. Just when he reached the trail, he saw green smoke from the gas in the small courtyard not far away.

Zhang Tian suddenly felt something was wrong and returned quickly.

Before entering the courtyard, I saw the fire inside soaring into the sky, even brighter than the remaining colors of the setting sun.

"Miss Shen! Where is Miss Shen?"

Someone ran out and said, "Miss Shen is still inside, she is tied up and can't get out at all!"

Zhang Tian had the key in his hand. The Crown Prince told him before leaving that he could not open Miss Shen's chain until necessary.

Now that Miss Shen is in danger, she can no longer care about much.

Zhang Tian wrapped himself in the wet quilt and rushed into the yard.

He rushed straight to Shen Qingjia's door. It seemed that the fire started in the kitchen. It was still some distance from the main house, so the fire in the main house was very small, but the thick smell of smoke made people feel choking.

Zhang Tian pushed open Shen Qingjia's door and saw Shen Qingjia lying beside the bed, holding a handkerchief and covering her mouth and nose. She seemed to be in a weak state.

"Miss Shen, are you okay?"

Zhang Tian quickly took out the keys and unlocked Shen Qingjia's keys one by one.

Shen Qingjia took a few breaths and suddenly looked at Zhang Tian: "Guard Zhang, I'm fine."

Shen Qingjia removed the veil with a bright smile on his face.

Zhang Tian looked at this smile and felt something was wrong.

"Miss Shen, why are you..."

Before Zhang Tian could finish speaking, he suddenly felt a pain in the back of his neck. He turned his head to look warily, but before he could see clearly who was attacking him, the person suddenly hit him again.

Zhang Tian completely fainted.

Shen Qingjia stood up, took off the shackles on his hands and feet, glanced at Zhang Tian, ​​and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, Guard Zhang, I have to leave!"

Zhou Nan looked at Shen Qingjia and asked, "Miss, how should he deal with it?"

"Carry him to a safe place!"

Zhang Tian was quite responsive to her requests these days, and she had no intention of harming him.

Zhou Nan complied with her words and carried the man to an open area outside the courtyard. There was no fire and no thick smoke. When the time came, the fire fighters could come in and rescue him.

Shen Qingjia grabbed Zhou Nan's sleeve: "Let's go!"

Zhou Nan nodded.

He grabbed Shen Qingjia's waist, jumped up from the backyard, and led the person out of the yard.

Suddenly leaving the courtyard that bound her, Shen Qingjia felt refreshed.

Zhou Nan rode a horse and galloped away with Shen Qingjia.

"Miss, where are we going?"

This place is close to the southwest border. It can take more than ten days to return to the capital, or it can take more than a month.

Shen Qingjia thought for a moment and said, "Go back to the capital!"

Now that I have a plan for myself, I won't care about those damn systems and plots anymore.

The system is gone, so she still cares about the plot, and it's all a mess.

While riding on horseback, Shen Qingjia couldn't stand the jolting of the horse. After running for an hour, his legs were sore. They could only ask Zhou Nan to stop, and the two of them found a reliable house in a nearby small village to rest.

Zhou Nan found a house with an old woman. She was the only one in the house, and she seemed a little lonely.

"Girl, sir, come and eat!"

This old woman's surname was Huang. Zhou Nan gave this old woman money, so she was naturally happy to entertain them. She took out the eggs that were only eaten during the holidays, boiled them and served them to them.

Shen Qingjia was in charge of Jin Gui. He ate simple meals, but he really had no appetite, so he passed them on to Zhou Nan.

Zhou Nan stuffed the hard-boiled egg into his mouth, stood up and said, "Miss, let me make you some food!"

Shen Qingjia was hungry, so she was not polite to him and nodded: "How about making the egg noodles you made before!" When Zhou Nan heard her words, her eyebrows widened, her eyes shone slightly, and the corners of her mouth also Show a little smile.

Shen Qingjia looked at Zhou Nan. When he always smiled like this, he had the beauty of a well-behaved young man, which made people feel happy when they saw him.

Zhou Nan turned around and went out, then went to the kitchen to make noodles.

Grandma Huang saw someone in the kitchen, walked in and saw the young man lighting the fire and cooking. She couldn't help but praise: "Is it for your wife to eat? You treat your wife so well."

When Zhou Nan was said this, he suddenly felt a little warm in his heart. He remained silent for a while and did not refute.

Grandma Huang saw that it was troublesome for him to cook by himself, so she sat by the stove to add firewood to him.

"Thank you, grandma!" Zhou Nan thanked her.

Grandma Huang said: "You don't need to thank me. It's boring for my old lady to live alone. If you come to live with me, I'm happy to see you."

Zhou Nan asked him: "Don't you have children?"

Grandma Huang lowered her head, sighed and said, "I have a son who joined the army at a young age. Later he went to the battlefield and died."

Zhou Nan was silent and said: "Sorry!"

"It's nothing. After all, everyone has to die. I'm relieved. It's all my life!"

Grandma Huang is a tolerant person and said: "Although life is hard, we still have to live on."

Zhou Nan nodded: "You are right."

The two chatted without saying a word, and Zhou Nan's noodles were ready, sprinkled with chopped green onion, and fragrant.

Grandma Huang smiled and said, "You are quite attentive."

Zhou Nan smiled, it was not him who was attentive, but his lady Jin Gui, who would not eat if she was not satisfied at all.

This little noodle can get into her eyes and make her miss it, and he is very happy in his heart.

Zhou Nan hurriedly took the noodles and went to Shen Qingjia's house.

Shen Qingjia smelled the fragrance and watched Zhou Nan come in. Her eyes immediately lit up and she couldn't wait to go up and pick her up.

Zhou Nan stopped her: "Miss, don't move, sit still."

Shen Qingjia sighed and sat back down. Zhou Nan brought the noodles to her and handed the chopsticks to her hands. The service was very attentive.

Shen Qingjia smiled: "Not bad, Zhou Nan!"

Shen Qingjia was hungry, so she quickly started to slurp the noodles. The taste was still the same as before, very fragrant, and she was very satisfied with the meal.

Zhou Nan's eyes became softer when he saw her eating so well.

After Shen Qingjia finished eating the noodles, she accidentally raised her eyes and saw Zhou Nan's affectionate eyes, which made her feel a little embarrassed for a moment.

Zhou Nan noticed her intention to dodge, and couldn't help but feel disappointed. Then he looked away, got up, silently packed up the dishes and went out.

"Miss, go to bed early!"

Zhou Nan gently closed the door to her.

Shen Qingjia watched Zhou Nan disappear outside the door, feeling a little complicated. She sighed and got up and walked to the bed.

Looking back on this year, I have done so many things. Most of these things are actually what I want to do from the bottom of my heart.

Let’s continue doing business when we go back this time!

If the plot goes as planned and the Chu family really becomes the emperor, she will take her whole family to immigrate to border countries to make a living.

With this plan in mind, Shen Qingjia slowly fell asleep.

……

Liangcheng.

Someone was riding a horse, heading towards the main camp in a hurry, and a soldier stopped him.

"Who dares to enter the commander's camp without permission?"

"I want to see the crown prince!"

Zhang Tian showed Chu You's token.

When the soldiers heard that they were the prince's people, they quickly gave way to lead the way.
