Chapter 406 Princess Isa Stays in the Countryside
Two hours after Princess Isa left the braised food shop, Captain Zhang came to the shop with more than 30 people.
"Boss, serve the brothers some food." Captain Zhang got off his horse and walked towards the shop, shouting
"Okay! Brothers, please take a seat. Captain Zhang, how come you have time to come to my small shop today?" The shop owner greeted them warmly while cutting meat.
"There was a ranger that the master wanted to meet, so he asked me to chase him down." Captain Zhang didn't want to tell others about the pursuit of the suspect, for fear of scaring the old man in the shop.
"By the way, have you seen a young man riding a white horse with a sword on his waist among the people coming and going here?" Captain Zhang asked casually.
"Yes! There is a young man who seems to be going to Wushan Grassland. He is a bit like what you said. He had dinner here two hours ago." said the shop owner.
After hearing what the shop owner said, Captain Zhang felt relieved and it seemed that he was chasing in the right direction.
So Captain Zhang said anxiously: "Boss, please bring the dishes and rice up quickly. After we finish eating, we are in a hurry to get on the road."
"Okay!" the shop owner agreed and brought plates of braised meat, braised vegetables and rice to the table.
More than ten minutes later, Captain Zhang and his men finished their meal, dropped a silver ingot, mounted their horses and quickly chased in the direction Princess Isa left.
In the evening, Princess Isa passed by a small town and saw a wanted notice posted at the entrance of the town.
So Princess Isa decided to continue on her way. When it was pitch dark, Princess Isa knocked on the door of a farmhouse.
The gate opened, and an old man in his seventies appeared at the door. He looked at Princess Isa tremblingly and asked, "Young man, what's the matter?"
Princess Isa was dressed as a man all the way, so in her father-in-law's eyes she looked like a handsome young man standing at the door.
"Greetings, old man!" Princess Isa said politely, clasping her fists. "My last name is Wang, and I am a student traveling for school. I was in a hurry and missed the inn, so I want to rest in your house for a night. I will leave some money for the accommodation afterwards."
The old man looked at Princess Isa for a while, nodded and said, "Hey! When you study abroad, you will always encounter many inconveniences. Come in!"
As the old man spoke, he opened the two wooden doors on the left and right, and Princess Isa led her warhorse into the courtyard.
"Take the horse to the stable on the left!" said the father-in-law, guiding Princess Isa to lead the horse to the stable.
"There's horse feed in the house next door." The father-in-law pointed to a house on the side.
Princess Isa came into the room and came out with some horse feed.
Then Princess Isa put feed, water and some beans in the trough and followed her father-in-law to the front yard.
"Young man, you haven't eaten yet! Come here and I have some food." The old father-in-law said as he took out some rice and three side dishes from the pot.
"Thank you!" Princess Isa sat down at the dining table and took out some braised dishes and a pot of wine from her backpack.
Princess Isa poured a glass of wine for her father-in-law and one for herself, and the two chatted while eating snacks.
"Father, I have seen many places where people are living in poverty along the way, but you are living and working in peace and contentment here." Princess Isa asked curiously.
"Hey! Young man, you don't know! We used to be better here, but now the world is in chaos and we can only barely survive here." The old man sighed.
"Father, do you live here alone?" Princess Isa asked curiously.
"My wife passed away last year. My two sons work in the government. They are usually busy with official duties and only come back to see me during the Chinese New Year." The father-in-law took a sip of wine and said
After finishing the pot of wine, the old man and the young man were already a little drunk.
So the old man took Princess Isa by the hand and said, "Come here, young man. This is the room where my son lives. You can sleep in his bed."
"Thank you, father-in-law!" Princess Isa clasped her fists and thanked him.
"It's okay! It's okay! Go to bed early!" The old father-in-law said and went to his room.
At dawn, Princess Isa was sleeping soundly when she suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Princess Isa sat up from the bed alertly and hid behind the door with a sword in her hand.
"Who is it?" The father-in-law's voice came from the yard.
"Dad, it's me." A young man's voice came from outside the door.
"My son! Why are you back at this time? What happened?" The old man asked as he opened the door.
"It's okay! I was passing by and came back to take a look." The father-in-law's eldest son said as he walked into the yard.
"Someone is living in your room. If you want to sleep here, go to your second brother's room." The father-in-law closed the door and reminded
"Oh! A guest has arrived. Who is it?" the father-in-law's eldest son asked curiously.
"He was a young man who was studying abroad. He passed by the village and couldn't find a place to stay, so he came to stay at my house for a night." The old man explained.
"Oh!" The father-in-law's eldest son looked at his house, glanced at the stable at the same time, and suddenly stood still.
"Son! What's wrong with you?" The father-in-law asked curiously when he saw his son staring at the stable in a daze.
"Oh! Nothing much. What does this young man look like?" asked the father-in-law's eldest son.
"A handsome young man, in white clothes, with a sword, and very polite." The father-in-law roughly described Princess Isa's appearance.
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. The father-in-law's eldest son suddenly realized that the person he was looking for might be living in his own house.
Thinking of this, the father-in-law's eldest son was dealing with his father while thinking about what to do.
Finally, the father-in-law's eldest son chatted with him for a few words and then went to sleep in another room.
Princess Isa found out that it was her father-in-law's son who had returned. After watching him fall asleep in another room, she quietly returned to her bed.
The next morning, my father-in-law's eldest son went out early to do some work. Princess Isa slept well and did not get up until dawn.
After Princess Isa and her father-in-law finished their breakfast, they were ready to leave and took out a silver ingot and gave it to her father-in-law.
The old man waved his hands and refused to accept the money, but Princess Isa stuffed the silver into his hand and then led the horse away from the village.
Princess Isa rode her horse not far away from the mountain village, and more than ten war horses appeared in front of her.
Princess Isa realized that there might be trouble, so she held the reins with her left hand and subconsciously pressed her right hand on the hilt of the sword.
At this time, dozens of war horses appeared from both sides and behind and surrounded Princess Isa.
After the two sides confronted each other for a while, a tall and strong young man rode out of the crowd on horseback, clasped his fists and said, "Hello, young master! I am the head of the police under the master of this county. The master wants to have a chat with you."
When Princess Isa heard the young man's voice, she immediately realized that this constable was actually her father-in-law's eldest son.
So he smiled and said, "I am just a wandering scholar, how dare I disturb the master."
"Haha! Sir, you are too polite. Our master wants to make friends with you. I hope you won't refuse." said the captain.
Princess Isa realized that she had to go see the master, so she asked, "May I ask the master's name?"
"My master's name is Wang Jin, and he is an honest official in this area." The captain replied.
Princess Isa nodded, thinking that it would be nice to meet this honest official in the eyes of the people, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go with you to take a look."
When Captain Zhang saw that Princess Isa was very cooperative, he winked at his men, and they surrounded Princess Isa and galloped towards the county town.
