On the third day, nothing happened during the dull march. Even Wen Zhong, who they had always thought might come to rob them, had no news.
"We're here. Whoosh!"
"Valley Town, we're finally here. We don't have to sleep in a tent tonight.”
。。。。。。
The group suddenly became noisy. Zhuang Yan, who was standing at the back, tiptoed and looked over. He saw a small town standing on a plain ten miles ahead.
Taking advantage of this time, Zhuang Yan elbowed Brother Wang and said,"Brother Wang, you didn't dare to speak along the way. Haha ~"
"Go, go, you brat. Don't try to get information from me. I still want to live a little longer. Didn't you see the kid who was beaten up this morning?”Brother Wong pushed Zhuang Yan away with a look of disdain.
He wasn't angry at all even though he had been rejected. "No, Brother Wang." Zhuang Yan smiled and leaned forward. I know what's going on, but I didn't dare to ask about it. It's almost Chaoge's turn, so I just sighed.”
Brother Wang glanced at him and pretended to be profound.
"You brat, don't say I didn't warn you. You'd better not blindly ask about what happened last night. This matter involves the King, Marquis of the West, Marquis of Jizhou, and that otherworldly cultivator. It's probably very deep. I regret telling you so much.”
From the looks of it, Brother Wang was also afraid. Before Zhuang Yan could get him to say anything, he had already shut him up.
Zhuang Yan smiled and did not say anything. He knew that he wouldn't be able to get anything out of her, so he didn't force her.
。。。。。。
When they approached Gu Town, the general first sent someone to report their origins to the local post station.
Then, he rode his horse at a steady pace and continued to walk, waiting for his report.
In less than fifteen minutes, a man in official robes rode over on a fast horse.
"Phew, this lowly one, Valley Town Posthouse Officer Chen Youwei, greets General Qiao. I heard that General Qiao brought Empress Su into the palace. This lowly one has not gone far to welcome you, please forgive me.”
Chen Youwei stopped the horse's hooves, dismounted, and knelt down to apologize.
General Qiao smiled and said," You're too polite, Officer Chen. We came from afar and didn't inform you in advance. Now that we've been on the run, I'm sure the Empress is tired. Please take us to the station to settle down.”
Chen Youwei smiled and said,"Yes, yes, General is right. We can't tire the Empress." General, please bring your soldiers and follow me.”
Following Chen Youwei, the group arrived at the Gu Town Posthouse. Unexpectedly, the inn in this small town was very luxurious. There were pavilions, green plants, and flowing water. It was completely different from the inn in other places.
"Brother Wang, this isn't a post station. It's even better than the mansions of the major clans in Zhaoge City.”Zhuang Yan asked curiously.
This didn't involve any secrets, so Brother Wang didn't hide anything.
"Hehe, you don't know this, right? This isn't an ordinary inn. This was the place where other nobles, generals, and foreign envoys would definitely settle down before they entered the court to meet the emperor.”
" Although it's only half a day's journey from here to Zhaoge, we can't be travel-worn when we come to see the emperor. Therefore, we've decided to take a break here and send someone to inform him. That's why we built this post house here." It was built so luxuriously because the guests were all nobles.”
At this point, he even said with slight excitement," Speaking of which, we are blessed. If it weren't for the fact that we are here to bring Lady Su into the palace, we wouldn't be qualified to live here with our status. In the past, we could just casually find a shop in the town to send them away. If there were many people, we would have to be stationed outside the town.”
At the entrance of the inn.
The leader, General Qiao, ordered everyone to wait on the spot. Then, he walked to Su Daji's carriage, knocked on the shaft, bowed and said,"Reporting to Your Ladyship, we have arrived at the Valley Town.”
Hearing the voice, Qin Mengyu stuck her head out and replied on Su Daji's behalf,""Got it. Sorry to trouble you, General."
After saying that, she crawled out and jumped down from the carriage. Then, she opened the curtain and called out to the carriage,"Miss, you can come down now."
Under everyone's gaze, Su Daji got out of the carriage and stood on the shaft. She did not get out of the carriage but looked around.
The hearts of those who were swept by her gaze quickened.
She was really too seductive!
At this moment, everyone could only think of this sentence.
Even the soldiers who had seen Su Daji many times in the past two days could not help but be attracted to her.
Not to mention the other people who came out to welcome him, their eyes could not move away at this moment.
Su Daji covered her mouth and chuckled,"How do I get off?"
How do I get out of the car?
The people standing around were stunned, not knowing what Su Daji meant.
The soldiers around them all sent a questioning look to the people beside them, but the reply they received was a slight shake of their heads, indicating that they did not know.
Even General Qiao looked at Qin Mengyu, but she was also a little confused.
However, she reacted quickly. She reached out her hand and said,"Miss, you can support me."
Qin Mengyu's hand did not make Su Daji move.
She only lowered her head to take a look and did not respond. She continued to stand on the shaft of the carriage.
At this moment, Old Wu, who was closer to the carriage, had an idea. He threw down the weapon in his hand and quickly rushed to the front of the carriage. Then, he lay on all fours on the ground as a human stool and shouted.
"Empress, please!"
Everyone was stunned, including Zhuang Yan and the others who were teammates. They did not expect Old Wu to have such a reaction.
Everyone was stunned.
Su Daji saw Old Wu kneeling on the ground and her eyes revealed a satisfied expression. She lifted her jade feet and gently stepped on Old Wu's back, using this opportunity to get off the carriage.
The long skirt gently slid across Old Wu's face, giving off a faint fragrance.
Old Wu, who was lying on the ground, took a deep breath and was intoxicated by it.
While everyone's attention was on Su Daji, Old Wu tilted his head and looked at Su Daji's back as she left, revealing an infatuated expression.
。。。。。。
After Su Daji entered the inn, Zhuang Yan and the rest were also arranged to rest in a side room in the outer courtyard. At the same time, General Qiao also allowed them to stroll around the town.
The matter of Old Wu acting as a human stool caused quite a stir among the soldiers.
However, no one dared to discuss it publicly. They all spoke a few words in private and had a tacit understanding of each other. However, most people looked at Old Wu with a strange expression.
。。。
Four hours later, inside a private room of Gu Zhenke Lai Restaurant.
Zhuang Yan and the others split into several groups and entered the place.
"Miss Qin, Madam Liu, you've been following Su Daji these days. What happened to her? I wanted to ask you about it but I didn't have the chance.”
Zhuang Yan asked impatiently as they sat together.
Qin Mengyu and Liu Ruyi sat next to each other and looked at each other.
His teammates were also waiting for them to speak.
Liu Ruyi was the first to speak." I'm just a cook here. I don't have much contact with Su Daji. I only know that Su Daji's taste has changed a lot since last night."”
"Previously, she liked light things and had a sweet taste. Miss Qin had also come to my place to get food a few times before, so she should be more clear about it.”
"But today, I have to cook meat. The taste is different from usual. I can't understand it no matter how I think about it. If I didn't cook for Father at home before and have a certain foundation, and if I didn't inherit the ability and memory of this identity when I came here, I'm afraid I really wouldn't be able to cope.”
What Liu Ruyi meant was that she only knew that Su Daji's taste had changed, but she couldn't figure out anything else.
This inevitably disappointed everyone. He could only hope that Qin Mengyu would make some discoveries and find a breakthrough.
