Murong Hao got off his horse and held a big bundle in his hand.

"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince." Vice General Li saw Murong Hao dismounting and quickly stepped forward to salute.

"No need to be too polite, just protect the salt field built by the Crown Princess in Jinwei City in the future." Murong Hao looked solemn when he saw that Lin Yunxi was wearing so little today.

"Yes." Vice General Li knew that the Crown Prince and Crown Princess had something to say, so he wisely withdrew.

Murong Hao didn't pay attention to anyone around him, glanced at Lin Yunxi, and opened the baggage in his hand.

Inside is a fiery red cloak made of shiny firefox fur.

"I just told you to keep warm last night, but you have disobeyed me today. How can a husband like you allow you to travel far away with peace of mind." Without saying a word, Murong Hao directly put the cloak on her and tied it up.

"Husband, where did you get that great cloak? It's fiery red and so beautiful." Lin Yunxi's attention stayed on this fine great cloak.

"This time, other countries paid tribute to a lot of firefox furs. I asked the craftsmen in the palace to make them for you. I just got them this morning. Fortunately, I was able to give them to you in time. You have to be obedient and keep warm. Do you hear me?" Murong Hao kept saying. warned her.

To be honest, Lin Yunxi was touched by the man in front of her again. For many years, she had been living alone. She didn't care when she was hungry or cold. Now that there is a man who cares about her health every day, everyone will be moved.

"I know, Xi'er will pay attention. It was really not cold in the carriage just now. I never expected the wind to be so strong outside the city gate." There were stars in her eyes, which were moved to tears by the man in front of her.

"Remember to go home when you go to the inn tonight, I'll wait for you." He whispered in her ear.

"Yes, Xi'er remembers it." She really wanted to kiss him at this moment, but it was a pity that this was at the city gate where people were coming and going, so it would have a bad influence.

"Go, everyone is waiting for Xi'er, remember to miss your husband." He really wanted to hug her, but unfortunately there were too many people here.

"Yes." Lin Yunxi turned around and got on the carriage, opened the curtain and looked at Murong Hao.

Murong Hao was seen telling the secret guards behind the carriage.

"Guard the Crown Princess and Prince Yongjia well." Although he had already told the secret guards these things yesterday, he still wanted to give them the instructions again today.

"Yes, don't worry, Your Highness, we will protect the safety of the Crown Princess and the little prince to the death." The secret guards saluted in unison.

"Well, let's go." Murong Hao looked at the carriage. When he saw Lin Yunxi opening the carriage curtain and looking at him, he gave her a smile.

As the carriage set off, Lin Yunxi took his son and two thousand Eastern Imperial Forest troops and rushed to Jinwei City.

Murong Hao kept watching the group of people go away, and then turned back to the city until no one could be seen.

The group of people walked for a day, but still failed to reach Jinwei City. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Vice General Li asked the march to speed up. He knew that there was a small town ahead and an inn in the town that could accommodate the Crown Princess and her party. , and the two thousand soldiers he brought can be stationed on the spot.

Before dark, the army arrived at the small town. It was the same inn where Lin Yunxi and Murong Hao had stayed. After Lieutenant General Li arranged for the Crown Princess and her party to stay, he led two thousand soldiers on a hillside not far from the inn. Stationed down.

When it was dinner time, dinner was available on the first floor of the inn, so Lin Yunxi took his family to the dining room of the inn to have dinner.

Halfway through the meal, a group of men in coarse cloth also entered the inn's dining room to have a meal.

"Waiter, here are two tables of delicious food." A big man said loudly.

Lin Yunxi heard this voice and looked up at the big man. He really knew someone. Wasn't he Li Mai?

Shouldn't he be taking care of the lonely elderly and orphans in Yuncang Mountain now? Why is he here?

Lin Yunxi looked next to Li Mai and saw two yamen servants wearing yamen clothes following Li Mai.

She roughly understood that Li Mai was now under the supervision of the Yamen. Maybe they were going down the mountain to do something.

Soon, the store served food to all tables, and everyone was eating, but no one was talking while eating.

Suddenly a little girl's voice came from the shopkeeper's cashier.

"Staff, please do me a favor. My mother and I haven't eaten for several days. My mother is still ill now. Can you give me some food? You can also use the food used by the customers. We don't mind it." The little girl's voice was very weak. , it sounded like he was almost starving.

"Let's go, let's not disturb our business. There are a lot of beggars coming every day, so we don't need to do any business."

There are a lot of beggars coming to beg every day, and the shopkeeper has become numb to these beggars.

Li Mai looked back at the little girl. She was wearing a patched coarse cloth. Her face was dark, whether it was sunburned or not washed for many days. Her mother next to her was not much better. The coarse cloth was worse than The little girl's clothes were still worn out and she only wore thin clothes in the winter. It could be seen that she was very thin and sick, and looked like she was about to collapse.

"Little girl, if you don't mind, please bring your mother to my table to have something to eat. There are no good dishes to fill up your stomach." Li Mai really couldn't stand the poor mother and daughter, so he spoke to the mother and daughter at the door.

"Sir, are you willing to pay for the meal when we join you?" The shopkeeper disliked the two dirty mother and daughter very much. Beggars eating in his restaurant would affect the business too much. He didn't want these two people to eat. Mother and daughter enter.

Lin Yunxi looked at the two mother and daughter pitifully, but Li Mai spoke first. She did not speak, but just watched how Li Mai, who was not far away from her, dealt with the two mothers and daughters while eating their dinner.

Li Mai took out a few coins from his sleeve pocket, looked at the food he ordered, and then looked at the shopkeeper.

"Shopkeeper, how much money do I need to feed my brother and I, as well as the mother and daughter, for dinner?"

The shopkeeper didn't expect that this rich man would actually invite the two mothers and daughters to the table. People coming and going in the inn were all looking at him. He had no choice but to go to Li Mai's two tables and take a look at the food on the tables.

"These dishes plus their meal cost are 50 Wen." The shopkeeper quickly calculated the number.

Li Mai clicked his coins and found that he only had 45 coins. He looked at a dish on the table.

"Shopkeeper, I want one less dish. Let the two of them serve it." Li Mai looked at the shopkeeper with a pair of determined eyes.

"My guest, after all the dishes have been served, is there any reason to take them away? You'd better enjoy your meal. If you don't finish it, just give it to the mother and daughter." The shopkeeper has no patience and wants to do good things. The customer who had no money pulled him away, and he walked back to the counter after speaking.

Li Mai was helpless and looked at the brothers behind him.

"Do you have any money with you?" He actually knew that his brothers had no money. He alone held all the money in the village. Maybe they hid some of it secretly.

"Boss, we don't have any money." Several brothers lowered their heads in shame.

Li Mai then looked at the two government officials watching over him at the table next to him. The two government officials were eating their meals and ignored him.

"You two, can you borrow 5 cents from me? I will pay it back to you when I go up the mountain. I didn't bring enough money to go down the mountain today. It's just a convenience."

Li Mai looked at the two government officials expectantly.
