Chapter 472
For the route this time, everyone chose the safest official road, and they had to detour accordingly. Chu Xu originally wanted to take the small road, which would be faster, but who would listen to him!

So this time Shan Yucheng led the troops to the expedition, which was the most relaxing time for everyone. Why did they think that the regent was not going to the front line, but was planning to take the protector's wife for a tour of the mountains and rivers!But no one would say these words, even Chu Xu just complained a few times and then shut up.

In the end, Shan Yucheng sent Wu Ziqian and Zuo Feng to leave with him first, and Hongxue's ears were quiet.

The carriage has been designed to absorb shock, but the ancient official roads are not very flat, there are always small stones on the road, which will make the carriage bump. , It's time for dinner.

"Madam Wang, we have only arrived at the bordering county now. We will enter Dongxi City in the bordering mansion before the city gate is closed."

Qingmei is very familiar with the terrain, and the route map for the person who is carrying her to the west this time, it is dinner time, Madam didn't eat anything for breakfast, and she is probably hungry now.

"Xue'er, eat some snacks first, these things won't last long."

Shan Yucheng took out a food box from the drawer under the small table. After opening it, there were many small partitions inside, filled with all kinds of food, which were prepared by the maids early in the morning. Fried chicken nuggets, and French fries, and another compartment contains mung bean cakes made by Jiang Hongyu, sprinkled with a layer of sesame seeds.

"I'm a little hungry."

Hongxue rubbed her stomach, rinsed her mouth with light tea, and washed her hands, then grabbed a piece of mung bean cake. Although it was cold, it still tasted good, and she ate it with a few snacks. Yu Cheng also ate some, but as a big man he really didn't like these small snacks, so after eating a few pieces, he asked Qingmei and the others to share the food.

The carriage did not enter Dongxi City until it was dark, and it was still a quarter of an hour before the city gate closed. The inn clerk had already been waiting at the city gate, and when he saw his master arrived in Ruyang, he rubbed his hands excitedly, and ordered The inn prepared dinner and delivered it to the guest room.

The best inn in Dongxi is called Fuxi. It is three stories high. All the rooms in Tianzihao are on the third floor. Driving into the backyard, Hongxue gave the man money to feed the horses the best fodder.

The room is clean and tidy, with fine porcelain vases, calligraphy and paintings, etc. for decoration, and there is a screen in front of the bed. When you open the window, you can see the street downstairs. At this moment, the sky is already dark, and Hongxue looks into the distance, with stars and stars In the houses not far away, oil lamps and candles were lit in every household, and there were those who had dinner late, and there was still smoke curling from the chimney.

The cook at Fuxi Inn is not bad, but Hongxue ate a lot of snacks, and her appetite was not big. She ate a few mouthfuls of light pickles, drank a bowl of porridge, and sent everyone back to the house. It has been so long , She is still not used to someone waiting outside when she is sleeping.

It's not that I have broken hands and legs, and I can't take care of myself, so why bother to deprive others of their sleep time!

After sitting in the carriage for a day, Hongxue also felt sleepy. She yawned, and when the clerk brought water to wash up, she immediately felt refreshed.

Just now Qingmei wanted to change the bed sheets on it, but she stopped her to stay around for one night, keep everything simple when going out, and don't pay attention to ostentation.

Moreover, the bed sheets and quilts in the Tianzihao room of Fuxi Inn had to be changed every day, and at ten taels of silver a night, it was not something ordinary people could afford to live in.

"Master and Madam, look at this road map, it takes five days to go on the official road." Qingmei took out the road map from her sleeve pocket and showed it to Shan Yucheng and Hongxue.

"Then go slowly, we're not in a hurry anyway, right ma'am!" Shan Yucheng said, pulling Hongxue who had just washed, and sitting on his lap.

Seeing this, Qingmei had no choice but to back out depressingly, thinking: "My lord, you can talk as soon as you say, why do you have such an intimate move with your wife in front of the servants, at least you have to take into account the feelings of us single people!"
"Look at you, you scared Qingmei out." Hongxue in the room patted Shan Yucheng's chest lightly, and said angrily.

"What's the matter, sooner or later, she is going to get married, now let her get used to getting along with her husband in the future, isn't it good!" Shan Yucheng said nonchalantly, and picked Hongxue up in his arms, Walking towards the big bed, he said, "You are tired after riding in the carriage for a whole day, go to rest early, don't worry about it too much." As he said that, he also lay down beside Hongxue, patted her with one hand, and coaxed her to sleep like a child.

In the middle of the night, Hongxue woke up from her sleep in a daze. During the day, she slept in Shan Yucheng's arms, but now she couldn't fall asleep no matter what, and her mind gradually recovered.

She sat up from the bed and looked out the window. It was gloomy, without a ray of light, and there was faint moisture in the air. Maybe it would rain tomorrow.Hurrying in the rain, the carriage was going very slowly. I wondered if I could reach the next town before dark.

"Why don't you go to sleep?" Shan Yucheng's alertness has always been very high, even if he fell asleep, as long as there is any trouble around him, he can wake up immediately.

Now looking at Hongxue who was looking out of the window, he hugged her from behind, and the heat from the conversation was sprayed behind Hongxue's ears, making it itchy.

"I slept too much during the day, but now I don't want to sleep too much, I'm disturbing you!" Hongxue turned her head abruptly, her cheek just brushed against Shan Yucheng's thin lips, both of them were startled.

Shan Yucheng came back to his senses, said with a smirk, "Since we can't sleep, why don't we do something meaningful!" After finishing speaking, he pulled the brocade quilt beside him and covered himself and Hongxue Inside, within a short while, there was a blushing and heartbeating sound from inside the brocade quilt.

And the consequence of such indulgence was that the next morning, Shan Yucheng supported the sleepy-faced Hongxue downstairs to have breakfast in good spirits.

Everyone wanted to ask, but they were stared back one by one by Shan Yucheng's cold eyes, and he himself flattered himself as a maid, serving his wife's breakfast. Xue didn't seem to appreciate it, she turned her head and drank the porridge by herself.

Shan Yucheng was not angry, but became more affectionate. Seeing that Yun An and the others just wanted to bow their heads, they thought: My lord, where is your husband gang!

After everyone finished their breakfast in such a strange atmosphere, the sky began to drizzle, the raindrops were very small, and the ground hadn't been wet after a quarter of an hour. When everyone checked out, the shopkeeper came to see him off again. He didn't know Everyone's footsteps, so I didn't help to book an inn for the next city.
