Outside the sedan chair curtain, the city gate engraved with the words "Fengcheng" gradually drifted away, Xiao Hanyue and He Hua couldn't help showing a sense of anxiety in their eyes.

Although Xiao Jingmo didn't probe his head, he knew that they had already left Fengcheng at this time, and were going further and further towards the strange land.

Seeing the nervousness of the three of them, Su Qingtian couldn't help but chuckle.

"Relax."

As she said that, the girl took out some wrapped peach blossom cakes from her sleeves and handed them to Hehua, "I returned to Beijing this time according to the emperor's old son's order. Really bad for us."

"It's just that according to their methods that can't be put on the table, I'm afraid they will have to find opportunities to humiliate them along the way."

He Hua lowered her head and opened the package separately, and while passing the peach blossom cakes to the masters, she quietly listened to the young lady's analysis.

"The daughter taught by Su Zheng must have endless tricks in private."

Xiao Hanyue snorted coldly.

He once heard the third brother mention that Xiao Qingtian's life in the Su family was not good before she came home, and the third brother tried to take her away many times but failed.

With such a father, Su Lingxian might be in constant trouble with them.

"No problem." After taking a bite of the pastry, Su Qingtian said with a smile, "If I really want to do it, I have to stay far away from Fengcheng, or even from the border of Linxian County. The border is guarded by the Xiao Family Army. His son would not be so stupid."

In fact, this is also one of the reasons why Jin Wang has always wanted to completely destroy the Xiao family through Su Zheng. He knew that he could not control Old General Xiao and the Xiao family army at all, so he wanted to use other means to make the Xiao family disappear.

As the son of King Jin, Gu Mingxuan knew the importance of the Xiao family army to the Mo country since he was a child, and he was also afraid of it.

Listening to Xiao Qingtian's analysis, Xiao Hanyue couldn't help but nodded. He really cared about it, but he forgot that the border was his own territory.

Thinking of the various humiliations that the Xiao family had experienced back then, he would not take this trouble on the road to heart now, it just hurt his little niece and the child Jingmo.

Seeing that the masters were all relaxed under the consolation of the young lady, He Hua turned around, opened the curtain of the car, moved to sit beside Nie Chen, and handed him the peach blossom cake in her hand.

The man glanced down, then reached out to take it very naturally and took a bite.

Well, this Peach Blossom Crisp is really sweet.

No wonder women love it.

He didn't realize that the two of them acted too intimately, and he still carefully inspected the surrounding mountains and forests.

With her hand back, the lotus lowered her head and took a small bite of the pastry, with a gentle smile on her face.

As expected, the passage was extremely peaceful as Su Qingtian expected, but the uninterrupted rush made everyone's backs ache and their legs swollen and numb.

When the sky was about to darken, the five vehicles also sped up on the official road, as if they were rushing to their destination before the night completely darkened.

Half an hour later, He Hua finally noticed that the carriage under her slowly slowed down, and finally stopped.

She grew up in Fengcheng since she was a child, and the farthest she went was to Lin County on behalf of her master, and it was the first time she traveled in a carriage with such intensity.

Fortunately, I used less breakfast, otherwise I would have to spit it all out.

After Su Qingtian and the others got out of the car, they realized that the inn in front of them had already left the boundary of Lin County.

The guards around were busy arranging the vehicles and horses to the backyard of the post station. After unloading the carriages, they drove the horses to the stables and fed the high-quality horse feed to the station soldiers.

The most gorgeous car was the last one to slowly lift the curtain, Gu Mingxuan got out of the car gracefully, turned around and supported Su Lingxian with a distressed expression.

It wasn't until the woman leaned against his arms softly and bonelessly that Gu Mingxuan set his sights on Su Qingtian and his party as if giving charity.

"Miss Su." The man's voice was bitter and slightly disgusted, "We will stay here temporarily tonight, and continue on our way tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, he took Su Lingxian up to the second floor of the inn.

Su Qingtian naturally saw Su Lingxian's gloating expression and the complacency in his eyes.

Tsk, are you ready to start?

This inn is relatively large on the way from the frontier to the capital, and it is usually a place for the officials in the past to take a rest or pass on military information and soldiers to change horses, so the accommodation in the inn itself is divided into many levels according to the quality of the visitors.

The rooms and meals of the royal family are the best. After the royal family, there are first-rank officials, followed by second-rank and third-rank officials, then fourth-rank and fifth-rank officials, and then sixth-rank and below. It's civilians.

Gu Mingxuan is the eldest son, and Gu Qiuyang is the crown prince, so they naturally live in the best room.

Su Lingxian came with them, so naturally Zhanguang lived in the best house.

She didn't even bother to guess, Su Qingtian knew that Su Lingxian must use the rules of station classification to humiliate their family.

After all, apart from Grandpa, the rest of the Xiao family has no official positions at present. Before the eldest uncle fell ill, he still had the title of Major General. He was cut off after less than half a year in a coma. Now he is naturally a commoner.

As the night wind picked up, the family waited for a quarter of an hour at the entrance of the post station before seeing a man in guard uniform coming.

"I'm in the forest." The man politely clasped his fists and greeted, "It's my son who asked me to arrange accommodation and food for you."

"The station is divided into grades." Lin Mu said directly, regardless of whether they knew it or not, "Our guards are only rank nine, and can only sleep in the Datong shop, and several of them are civilians, so we can only sleep in the woodshed tonight."

"Come with me, everyone."

Xiao Jingmo wrapped the girl in his arms in a big cloak, and when Lin Mu turned around, he greeted his uncle and the others to go to the direction of the woodshed.

In fact, Xiao Jingmo frowned when he heard the word "chaifang". He wondered whether the clothes he brought could make a comfortable bed for the girl.

Xiao Hanyue, who was walking at the end, also had an extremely ugly complexion, because the little niece didn't refute, so he couldn't bear it.

He knew that the station was divided into grades, but the treatment was not so bad.

Datong bunk is generally used by official grooms and entourages. Ninth-rank officials live in a room for four people, and there are four separate small beds in the room.

Gu Mingxuan's arrangement is not just to bully the Xiao family, who only knows how to fight with brute force and knows nothing about mud legs, and by the way, he is training the little girl to satisfy Su Lingxian's little thoughts.

These two people really have dark hearts.

Lin Mu pushed open the door of the woodshed, and a damp smell of wood and heavy dust came over his face.

There are piles of wood that have been hoarded for many years inside, for emergency use, and more for winter. On weekdays, there are farmers in the post station who send firewood to the door.

So after the firewood room was filled with wood, it was never opened again.

Seeing this scene, Lin Mu was slightly taken aback. He didn't expect it to look like this inside. It seemed that the elder son really hated this group of people, but they offended the people on the top of the elder son's heart.
