Qin Junxian's lips trembled and he asked, "Have you forgotten that the second young master of the Qin family has finished his funeral and no longer exists in this world?"

Only then did Mrs. Pei think of the incident of "taking the blame for her mother". Her heart felt extremely painful for a moment. She stretched out her hand to cover her chest tightly, tears of regret fell down, and she cried bitterly.

Qin Junxian's fingers curled up on his side, but after all, he still didn't reach out to comfort her, and just stayed with her silently.

Many eyes from all around fell on the mother and son, and whispers continued.

Qin Junxian turned a deaf ear and was alone. He just pursed his lips tightly and stared into space.

"Ms. Pei, it's time to get on the bus." After all the prisoners had boarded the bus, an official shouted from a distance under Zhong Wei's instructions.

Mrs. Pei then wiped away her tears with a silk handkerchief, calmed down and asked, "Brother Xian, it's my mother who has wronged you. What can my mother do to make up for it?"

"Don't appear in front of eldest brother and sister-in-law again." Qin Junxian suppressed the sourness in his heart and pretended to be expressionless.

Ms. Pei felt that her heart was stabbed hard by a steel needle, and she shook her head repeatedly: "Mom can't do this, and I also want to make it up to your elder brother."

"Brother doesn't need it. If you are really doing it for your own good, just don't bother him. That's it." After Qin Junxian finished speaking, he walked away.

Mrs. Pei looked at his back, her vision blurred by tears.

The further east you go, the more severe the drought and water shortage situation becomes.

The rivers dried up and the earth cracked, making everything look particularly desolate and desolate.

The exile team has been unable to find a water source for several days. The previous water reserves have been exhausted. Everyone's face is yellow and their lips are chapped.

The animals pulling the cart were listless due to thirst and could no longer run, so the speed of travel slowed down.

In a carriage of the Qin family, Su Yunwan, who was taking a lunch break, was awakened by a nightmare and sat up suddenly.

"Wan Wan, what's wrong?" Qin Junyi, who was sitting aside reading a book, saw this and quickly put down the book and asked with concern.

Su Yunwan's eyes were still filled with panic, so she looked at him steadily for a long time and asked, "Where are we?"

Qin Junyi poured a cup of tea for her and handed it over, "Ahead is the border of Jizhou. Once we pass Jizhou, we will be far away from the hinterland of the Central Plains and out of the control of the royal family."

Su Yunwan took the teacup in his hand, took a sip, and murmured: "Jizhou? Do you have a map?"

"Yes." Qin Junyi immediately spread out a map of the Great Zhou Dynasty and spread it on the quilt in front of Su Yunwan for her to check.

Su Yunwan stretched out her jade-green hand, clicked on the map, and drew eastward from Kyoto along the route she had taken.

After a moment, he pointed in the direction of Black Wind Village and said, "Do you think the Dog Emperor will launch a large-scale assassination?"

"According to the recent intelligence, he is currently busy suppressing the rebellion and has no time to take care of us." Qin Junyi looked at the position she pointed at, a dark light flashed in his eyes, "Not only is there a rebellion in the Li Junwang fiefdom, but there are also different places across the country. level of turmoil.”

"I understand." Su Yunwan smiled in relief.

Just now, she dreamed of the large-scale chase before she traveled through her previous life. The feeling of lying in a bumpy and speeding carriage, powerless and at the mercy of others, was too uncomfortable.

The moment she fell off the cliff, she woke up from her dream.

According to the clues in his memory, the time of the accident in his previous life was exactly the time when he passed through Heifeng Village.

It turns out that the chase took another form, and was resolved one by one by Qin Junyi and others.

She will not fall into a rift in time and space again and live alone in an unknown world.

The internal and external turmoil in the past only added different colors to the picture of her life.

Compared with the boring time when I lived in isolation, my life now is much more exciting, richer and sweeter.

And all of this is inseparable from the company and waiting of the person in front of you.

If she suddenly disappeared one day, she could not imagine what she would become and what Qin Junyi would become.

Fortunately, all these changes passed without her noticing.

After thinking about this, a look of joy appeared on Su Yunwan's face. Suddenly thinking of Qin Junyi's words just now, she said in surprise: "We have not encountered anyone rebelling along the way."

Qin Junyi guessed: "Maybe it's because the people haven't been forced into a desperate situation, or maybe it's because they are in the hinterland of the Central Plains and the imperial court has strong control over the government and military forces."

"So, as long as we pass Jizhou, the crisis from the royal family will basically be over?"

Qin Junyi nodded: "Jizhou is equivalent to the last level. I have sent scouts from the personal army to investigate. So far, I have not received any news of an ambush."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of galloping horse hooves could be heard outside.

Soon, Qin Junxian outside the carriage said: "Brother, the scout is here to report."

Qin Junyi took the quilt from Su Yunwan's hand, put down the gauze curtain in front of the couch, sealed the carriage into two spaces, inside and outside, and then said: "Let him in!"

Soon, a dusty man in gray cloth walked into the carriage, knelt down with his head bowed and clasped his fists and said: "Report to the master, there is a civilian uprising outside Jizhou City. Tens of thousands of people have formed and are besieging Jizhou City."

Qin Junyi frowned fiercely and said to the outside: "Go and ask Mr. Zhong to suspend the team and ask him to come with Mr. Chu to discuss important matters."

"Yes." Qin Junxian immediately went to call someone.

In the car, the scout man finished his report and was about to leave. A plain hand holding a water bag stretched out from the gauze curtain and touched Qin Junyi's waist.

Qin Junyi looked sideways and immediately understood what Su Yunwan meant, and said to the scout man: "Take this water, go out and let Xiao Wu take you to find some food."

"Thank you, Master, Madam." The scout man took the water bag. The heavy weight made him raise his head in surprise, revealing his chapped and bleeding lips.

Water resources are now more precious than food, and he has been without water for a long time.

And according to what he had just seen, the exile team was also very short of water.

He handed the water bag forward and said: "I don't need so much, I just hope that the master will give me a cup of tea."

With his sharp eyes, he had already seen the entire tea set beside him, and he could tell from various signs that there was still tea left in the teapot.

"It doesn't matter, just take it. As for the tea, you can drink it if you want." Qin Junyi was always kind to his subordinates who had made meritorious deeds. After saying this, he stretched out his hand to pour the tea.

The scout man quickly declined and quickly exited the carriage.

Although Wu Shaohan was not on duty, he still rode beside the carriage and naturally heard their conversation. When the scout got out of the car, he immediately led him to find Zhao Yongfu.

Zhong Wei in front received a message and ordered the entire team to rest where they were.

The long ride in the car has left many people with swollen and numb legs. As soon as there was a break, people on the bus rushed to get out of the car and walk around to stretch their legs and feet.

Soon, Zhong Wei and Chu Shao arrived one after another.

Qin Junyi got into a wheelchair and joined them to discuss important matters in Jizhou away from the crowd.
