On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Huo Changhe and Yan Ruyu left Yongchang earlier than Madam and the others.

The two of them are still dressed as Mr. Jia and the little maid.

Sitting in the carriage, Mr. Jia was serving the little maid, peeling oranges, peeling chestnuts, and constantly bringing hot milk tea to him.

Yan Ruyu looked at the map: "Will you enter Lincheng tonight?"

Huo Changhe said: "Do you want to go in? Let's go in if you want. If you don't want to stay outside the city, I remember there is a Xiaoye Lake outside the city. It is small, but there are many fish in the lake. There is a kind of white fish with a white body and a light head. Golden, delicious, this is the time of the year for it to be plump.”

"If you don't want to go into the city, then let's stay by the lake and I'll catch fish for you to eat."

Yan Ruyu became interested: "Is Yehu far from the city gate?"

"It's not far, only three to five miles." Huo Changhe put the peeled chestnuts in her hand. "If you want to see what's going on at the city gate, you can go back to Xiaoye Lake. There's no problem."

Yan Ruyu put a chestnut in his mouth: "Your Majesty knows my heart well."

As they were walking forward, the driver slowed down and whispered back: "Your Majesty, Princess, there are a few people in front of you."

This road is considered an official road, and there are not many people coming and going. If the coachman can say something specifically, he must be no ordinary person.

Yan Ruyu looked through the curtain and saw five people coming in front of them. They were still a little far away, but they could still tell that the two at the back were Lian Jiazi.

The person in front is an old man, and the one behind him is holding a guide stick in his hand, but he is walking very fast, and he is talking and laughing with the person next to him.

Weird and strange combination.

Yan Ruyu whispered: "Pull over and stop."

The car stopped slowly, the five people approached slowly, and Yan Ruyu released Bago.

The myna flew close to the five people, flapped its wings and screamed: "Oh, oh, oh, the waves are blowing, the frost is blowing? Didn't the lost dog run away?"

Song Ping: "..." What a stupid beak.

Beibei was surprised and happy, completely ignoring what Bago said was unpleasant: "Hey? Xiaolan, where are you from? Where is the master!"

Sima Ru touched his beard and his eyes shone: "This bird is very good!"

Bage landed on Beibei's shoulder and looked at Sima Ru with his little eyes blinking: "Oh yo yo, new old man!"

There are now two old men in the team, the abbot and Dr. Cao. One is a man of few words and the other has a bad temper. Now this Sima Ru will be the third one.

Beibei understood, but Sima Ru was confused.

"New old man? These words sound fresh, new and old at the same time. Is it possible that there are still old ones?"

Quandao nodded: "There are some, and they all have quite bad tempers."

Beibei was overjoyed when she saw the carriage in front of her and ran over quickly.

"Is it the master?"

Yan Ruyu lifted the car curtain: "Beibei, did you get out safely?"

"I have met the master," Beibei smiled with crooked eyebrows. "According to the master's instructions, the whole city is now spreading rumors about Yongchang County Lord's past, and almost everyone knows about it. They are searching for villains throughout the city, but the search It can’t be reached!”

Song Ping also came over to reply and talked about leaving manpower behind.

"You're doing well," Yan Ruyu glanced at Sima Ru.

Beibei quickly pulled him over to greet him: "This is my master."

Sima Ru arched his hands.

Yan Ruyu said: "I'm relieved that you are all safe. This is not the place to talk. You just go forward. The big team is behind. Just join them."

After she said that, she handed a basket to Beibei: "Take these foods."

"Thank you, Master!" Beibei and Quandao took it.

"Go."

Seeing them walking away, Huo Changhe asked, "How do you think Sima Ru looks?"

"The appearance is okay," Yan Ruyu said, "but you can't rely on just looking at it."

"There's no rush. The news should be coming soon. We'll know when the time comes." Huo Changhe ordered and the carriage continued to move forward.

Beibei mentioned in Fei Ge's biography that the governor's wife was not on good terms with the Lord of Yongchang County, so relying solely on Beibei's storytelling would not have been so fast, and Mrs. Sun's contribution must have been indispensable.

Yan Ruyu thought to herself, maybe she could take advantage of Mrs. Sun's influence. The enemy of her enemy is her friend.

When they arrived near the city gate, it was closing.

Yan Ruyu was surprised: "Is it time to close the city gate now?"

"Could it be that Lincheng closed earlier?"

"No," Huo Changhe frowned, "There is a fixed time for the city gate to close, so it should be at least an hour in advance."

He gave a short laugh: "It's probably because I got the news and knew that my mother was coming. This was a deliberate attempt to show off."

Yan Ruyu also thought of this and laughed dumbly: "This method is not very good."

"Perhaps she thought that my mother was tired from traveling with us all the way and wanted to settle down in the city, so she closed the city gate early and let the door sigh to make her feel comfortable."

Yan Ruyu was slightly surprised: "Although we deliberately concealed our whereabouts, we couldn't hide our whereabouts after we left Lincheng. Why would she think so? Shouldn't someone who reported the news in advance come back to report the situation?"

"I don't know," Huo Changhe shook his head and looked at the city guards on the city gate in the distance, "Maybe something went wrong somewhere."

"It might just be that she didn't get accurate information."

Yan Ruyu also felt that this was the most reasonable explanation.

I originally wanted to take a look near the city gate, but now that the city gate is closed, there is no need to look any further.

Huo Changhe gave an order, turned the horse's head, and went to Xiaoye Lake.

Seeing that he was silent, Yan Ruyu asked, "What's wrong? Does the prince think there is something wrong?"

Huo Changhe smiled slightly: "No, I just thought that Huo Changxian's arrogance surprised me a bit."

"How to say?"

"Closing the city gate early may seem like a small matter, but it is not easy to do. If nothing major happens, the time will not change."

"Huo Changxian is in Lincheng. He is neither an official nor a general, but he can make the city gate close early. This shows that he is usually superior to the governor and the city protector."

"That's not surprising," Yan Ruyu said. "Isn't it that Magistrate Wu was suppressed by their mother and son?"

Huo Changhe thought for a while: "The county magistrate is a junior official after all, but only the seventh rank. Yongchang County is her fiefdom, so it is inevitable that she will be stronger. But Lincheng is different. Firstly, it is not a fiefdom. Secondly, it is the governor and the city protector. It’s no small matter. Lincheng is far away from the capital. If you want to do it, you can just say that you are a native emperor."

Yan Ruyu noticed something strange when she heard what he said: "What the prince said is absolutely true. If Yongchang is arrogant, that's all. But if she wants to create a good image for her son, she shouldn't be arrogant."

"Well, you should at least convince people with virtue," Huo Changhe slowly shook his head, "That's why I feel a little strange."

Yan Ruyu patted his arm lightly: "We're almost there anyway. We'll know what's going on when we get there."

Yan Ruyu thought to herself: There is one more important thing that she must do.

She must find out whose father this Huo Changxian is.
