Quick Travel: Cannon fodder, she always encounters yandere and paranoid people

*

Although Qing County is small, it is not a particularly remote county. It takes several days to travel there even if you ride a horse at full speed. After nightfall, people stay in roadside inns to rest.

Although Yun Wu was born into a peasant family, she was weak and often sick since birth. Her grandparents pitied her and loved her, and she seldom did heavy work since she was a child. That's why she learned the skills of sewing and embroidery to earn some money.

Now, in order to hurry back to the capital, we have to travel by boat and train during the day, and often encounter bumpy roads.

This was Yun Wu's first time traveling far away and she was not used to it. Her legs and feet felt uncomfortable after sitting in the carriage for a whole day.

Therefore, when they were resting in the inn room at night, Wei Huai would massage her legs.

Now they had been away from Qing County for eight days. Because they stayed in the inn for an hour or so to rest at night and did not travel in a hurry, their journey was a little slow. They would reach the capital in another two or three days.

Late at night, in a room on the second floor of the inn, Yun Wu, wearing only a thin undershirt, was leaning on the bed, while Wei Huai was massaging her legs earnestly.

"I've lost some weight after traveling so much these days."

"well enough……"

Yun Wu yawned lazily and waved her hand to tell Wei Huai to stop massaging her legs.

Her watery almond eyes glanced meaningfully at the blankets spread out on the ground, and then she pretended to be sleepy and said:

"We have to get up early tomorrow and travel quickly. We are almost in the capital. It's time to rest now. Huailang, you should go to sleep on the floor too."

During the days since leaving Qing County, Yun Wu found an excuse to let Wei Huai sleep on the floor every night.

A dark light flashed across Wei Huai's eyes, but it quickly disappeared without a trace, and a look of grievance and loneliness soon appeared on his handsome face.

"Miss..."

Yun Wu saw Wei Huai's pitiful look and she looked away feeling guilty.

Because she planned to confess everything to Wei Huai when she arrived in the capital. From what Ning Xingruo said last time, if Wei Huai's real identity was an official, he must be in the capital.

Therefore, it is best for us to go our separate ways in the capital.

But every time Yun Wu thought about this matter, she felt sad. She just thought it was because she and Wei Huai had been together for a period of time and had become husband and wife.

That's why he forced Wei Huai to sleep on the floor every night these days, in order to distance himself from Wei Huai before arriving in the capital, so that he could leave decisively when the time came.

"My wife always has cold feet when she goes to bed, so I can stay and warm the bed..."

"It's summer now, but the weather isn't cold!"

Yun Wu said shyly, and then threw the soft pillow at Wei Huai.

She didn't have much strength, so Wei Huai naturally caught the pillow steadily. However, he didn't say anything more, but just obediently got out of bed holding the pillow.

"I listen to my wife."

Wei Huai obediently hugged the soft pillow and sat on the quilt on the ground. Yun Wu breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't expect to hear him say the next second:

"My lady, let's have a baby after this is over."

Yun Wu, who was just about to turn off the lights and go to bed, was stunned. Her face gradually turned red. She looked down at Wei Huai, whose expression was very serious.

"My wife is beautiful. Our daughter will definitely look like her in the future. This is not difficult. I will try my best..."

“S-Shut up!”

Wei Huai was interrupted by Yun Wu's soft scolding before he could finish his words.

Her face flushed, but looking at Wei Huai's extremely serious and honest look, she didn't know what to say.

Forget it, I won’t bother with my cheap husband.

"We can discuss this later. Let's... take a rest first..."

Yun Wu snorted lightly, then quickly pulled the thin quilt to cover her petite body, turned her buttocks, and fell asleep on the bed with her back to Wei Huai.

As a result, after lying down for a while, I remembered that I forgot to turn off the light, so I turned around and turned off the oil lamp beside the bed.

Wei Huai saw his young lady's embarrassing behavior, and he only thought she became more adorable.

As usual, Yun Wu fell asleep early at night because of the fatigue from the long journey during the day.

But today, perhaps because she thought about going to the capital soon and confessing everything, she felt a little uneasy. Even though her eyelids were heavy, she did not fall asleep completely.

She didn't know how long it had been, but she seemed to hear someone knocking on the door. The sound was so faint that she thought she had misheard.

Later, I closed my eyes in a daze, feeling very sleepy, but still couldn't fall asleep.

Yun Wu turned over, feeling somewhat unhappy, and blamed everything on her stupid husband in a very petty manner.

She was a little angry and opened half of her eyes with great effort, originally wanting to look at Wei Huai.

However, under the moonlight, where was Wei Huai's figure besides the bedding on the ground?

This inn has been paid for by the prince's men, and it's full of their own people.

In the upper room at the corner of the corridor, Qi Yu and Wei Huai sat face to face and talked.

They had just talked about the assassins who had ambushed before. The secret guards around Qi Yu found out that it was the work of Prince Jing, the younger brother of the current emperor.

"I have already told my father about your situation in private. It is not appropriate to enforce it for the time being, so I ordered people to just say that you asked for leave to return home, and then let my father issue an order to appoint you to patrol the border. In this way, it will be natural for you not to be in the capital."

"Your Majesty is wise and decisive. I believe you have already made a guess and a decision in your mind."

Wei Huai said calmly that in this case they didn't have to plan too much, they just needed to return to the capital to implement the plan.

Qi Yu smiled at Wei Huai, as if he had made up his mind. He raised his eyebrows and asked:

"What about you? When are you going to tell your wife that you have recovered your memory, Lord Zhongshuling?"

"Your Highness, don't worry about this matter. I have my own plans."

Wei Huai said, then stood up and prepared to leave. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, frowned slightly, and bowed:

"If Your Highness wants to discuss matters with me tomorrow, please don't have anyone knock on my door like you did just now."

"Are you afraid she'll find out?"

"Do not."

Wei Huai shook his head, with a very indifferent look on his handsome face.

"I'm just afraid of disturbing my wife before she goes to bed."

Qi Yu opened the door and was about to see Wei Huai off when they suddenly heard a faint sound of something falling from a corner not far away.

There was a staircase around the corner. When Wei Huai went there, he happened to see his wife, who was supposed to be sleeping in the side room, appearing at the staircase without him noticing.

Yun Wu was wearing a thin robe. She had a slender figure and her long black hair was loose, which made her face look particularly fair and delicate.

She was wearing only one embroidered shoe, and the other was lying crookedly on the stairs a few steps away from her.

Seeing Wei Huai coming over, Yun Wu's rosy almond eyes seemed a little guilty.

"My shoes fell off..."

His young lady's voice was soft and trembling. She rubbed her eyes and looked sleepy, as if she had just woken up.

Wei Huai's gaze moved to Yun Wu's feet, which were not wearing stockings. One of her feet had no shoes, so she could only stand on one foot and dangle in the air, looking white like a pastry just out of the oven.

He couldn't help but think that if Yun Wu hadn't forced him to sleep on the floor tonight, he would have been able to give it a try. After all, it had happened before...

Yun Wu wanted to cry but had no tears. She wanted to sneak back to her room, but she got so flustered that her shoes fell on the road...
