t his master... that's a good reason."Gu Huai had his own plans, and he didn't want to involve his son."Father, your eyes are not convenient.""I will have my assistant go with me."Guo Huai gave his so...On the road to Longxi, an unassuming carriage appeared. It was pulled by two magnificent steeds, and beside it rode a young woman in red on a white horse, keeping pace with the carriage. At the helm of the carriage sat Wang Yaizu, his face etched with despair.

He felt like he'd gotten on the wrong boat with these two women. Unfortunately, with his frail frame, he'd already signed a hefty bodyguard contract, promising to obey their every whim. He could only grumble and reluctantly put on a rough burlap outfit, sitting atop the carriage as their driver.

Actually, he didn't even need to raise his whip; the two horses would start trotting "click-clack," they didn't need him to worry about them at all. He was just a decoration. After a whole day in the carriage, his waist and buttocks ached from the bumps, and he was both thirsty and hungry, but he didn't dare complain even a little bit.

"Ripple, take a look ahead and see what's there. Let's find a place to rest for a while, the horse has been riding for a long time."

Sitting in the carriage, Wang Zhenzhen raised her hand to lift the curtain and said to Lian'yi who was walking beside the carriage.

"Okay, I'll go check in front. "

Ripples kicked the white dragon horse's flank with her heel, and the white dragon horse immediately increased its speed, overtaking the carriage and galloping ahead to scout.

Twenty minutes later, Lian Ri rode back on Bai Long and spoke to the two of them:

"Ahead there's a tea shed, right beside the official road. We can rest here for a bit."

"Alright, I'll go there!"

Wang Zhenzhen nodded and said.

Wang Yaozu's face also broke into a smile, he immediately whipped his horse's rump, urging them to go faster.

Two hours later, the carriage arrived at the tea stall. The stall was small, with only six wooden tables. It was poorly constructed and could only offer shelter from wind and rain.

"Please, have a seat here!"

The young man in coarse clothes immediately smiled and greeted her, especially when he saw Lian's face, he was stunned for a moment until Lian called him, then he followed along clumsily.

The ripples then turned over and dismounted, letting Bai Long graze on the grass himself, and helped Wang Zhenzhen out of the carriage.

After leaving the town where Wang Yaozhu was attacked, the three of them made new arrangements.

Of course, this was all ripples' words. She directly confronted the trembling innkeeper, saying:

"Boss, after we leave, you should go to the magistrate's office and file a report. As for what you say, you can decide yourself. The authorities will handle matters of death. The injured guard accompanying this young master will stay here with you to recover. This covers his expenses for lodging and recuperation at the inn until he is well enough to leave."

After Ripples finished speaking, he directly tossed a gold ingot to his boss.

The boss, overjoyed, accepted the gold and quickly said:

"Thank you, heroine. I know what to say now, and I won't expose your whereabouts."

Lianshi was very pleased with Boss Shangdao's actions and immediately turned to Wang Yaozhu:

"Sir, did you come here by horse or carriage"

I arrived in my own carriage.

"Tsk, no wonder you've been targeted. Such a big target, and you don't even bother with some camouflage"

"It's done, I removed the Wang family crest."

"Calling you stupid, and you really are! Without your insignia, would familiar people even recognize you If you changed your clothes and stood before your friends, would you still be the young master of the Wang family"

"Right"

Wang Yaozu looked at Lian Ri's eyes, and replied somewhat uncertainly.

Of course! Unless you change your face!”

Liàn yī jìnzhì pèmù wèi zhège xiǎoxià jiu de zhìshāng, xián qǐ de sǎo yī yǎn duì fāng, zhè cái duì lǎobǎn shuōdào:

"You should have a carriage, right"

"Yes, my carriage certainly isn't as fine as yours."

The boss immediately said.

"Alright, then let's swap with each other."

"This young master's car is very luxurious."

"It's fine, he's already being hunted. There's no need to make such a fuss."

Immediately, the luxurious soft blankets and tea sets in Wang Yozhu's carriage were transferred to this unassuming carriage.

Wang Yaozu's fine garments were also changed into a commoner's coarse hemp cloth, the clothes were left to the boss as compensation, and all his jade pendant, golden belt, emerald finger ring, and white jade hair crown, were confiscated by Lianyi on the grounds of avoiding exposure.

Then Wang Zhenzhen disguised herself as a married woman visiting her family, with Wang Ya zu as her driver and Lian Yi as her bodyguard and maidservant. They left the town smoothly without encountering any pursuit.

Wang Zhenzhen had been a lady of leisure for sixteen years before this. Though she was a merchant's daughter, the Wu family had raised her well. She was proficient in everything: poetry, chess, calligraphy, and painting. She wasn't pretending; she naturally possessed the elegance of a noblewoman from a wealthy family.

Wang Zhenzhen was helped down from the carriage by Lianyi and chose a nearby table to sit at. She spoke to Lianyi and Wang Yaozhu:

“When you're out and about, there's no need to be so particular. Come sit with me! Let's have some simple food so we can get on the road.”

Yes, thank you, madam, for your understanding.

Ripple smiled and replied to the shop assistant:

Besides tea and water, what other food do you have here

"Yes, we have steamed buns and braised beef. They are both very filling. Travelers passing through always love my braised beef."

"Bring us a pot of tea and ten vegetarian steamed buns. Also, prepare two ounces of braised beef. If the taste is good, when we leave, we'll buy some more to take with us."

After Ripples finished speaking, she tossed a silver coin to the other person.

"Buddy, take this silver coin," he said with a cheerful chuckle to the old woman boiling water.

"Mother, the honored guest requests a pot of tea, ten steamed vegetarian buns, and two ounces of sliced braised beef!"

"Wutong, you come and have some tea and buns first. I'll go cut the meat."

The old woman was full of energy, clearly someone who had worked hard for years. Her white hair was tied up in a bun at the back of her head, with a reddish-brown headscarf covering it. Her face bore the marks of time, but she skillfully made tea and took out ten plain steamed buns from the steamer. She placed them separately on three black ceramic plates.

Wutong immediately, nimbly wiped the wooden table again and quickly arranged the tea and steamed buns. Turning back for a second trip, he brought up the sliced braised beef.

"Three guests, please take your time. If you need hot water, just call me."

Thank you!

Wang Yaozu took a bite of the plain steamed bun and immediately felt like he wanted to spit it out. Unfortunately, under one glance from Lian Ri's sharp eyes, he immediately choked down the bun in his mouth.

Liàn yī ate a vegetarian bun and drank some tea, but she didn't touch the braised beef. Wang Zhēn zhēn was the same, and in the end, both pieces of braised beef went into Wang Yào zǔ's stomach.

"This braised beef is delicious!"

After eating and drinking his fill, Wang Ya zu let out a satisfied burp.

At this time, another caravan came along the road. In the middle was a small cart covered in blue cloth, with about twenty people following it closely.

The boy's eyes lit up when he saw it, and he immediately ran towards it.

"Please, sir, come inside and rest a while in our tea shed before continuing your journey."

The convoy of people was quite large, filling the tea shed with a flurry of activity. Some even stood outside the tea shed, not bothering with formalities, and poured water from their own teapot directly into their bowls to drink.

A young man in a purple robe stepped out of the blue carriage. He was handsome with an air of scholarship, tall and slender. As he got out of the carriage, he glanced at Ripples' table and then froze, staring at her for a full minute.

"Sir, you've been staring at me for quite some time. It's rather impolite, don't you think"g his elder brother, he immediately shouted:"I didn't mean to, he attacked me first. The knife was his too. It was an accident when we were fighting, brother! Please save me!""What's the commotion Did...
