The people in the capital are still lively as usual, but the difference is that walking on the streets, you can hear the coughs of passers-by at any time.

A Luo told Mu Yunxi to pay homage to her benefactor. Mu Yunxi agreed and went to Liulianfang to say goodbye to Liu Qiwen before leaving the city with Han Qianqi.

Several soldiers beat gongs to notify the city gate to close an hour in advance, and then a group of soldiers patrolled.

Nan Yue and A Luo stood at the door of the shop, wondering: "Why did the city gate close an hour early?"

"And there are soldiers patrolling, could something happen?"

"Xiaoyue, what do you think it will be?"

"I wonder if people from Lingyue Kingdom are causing trouble here? Ah Luo, do you really want to go with that man named Han?"

Nanyue felt that Han Qianqi was uneasy and kind-hearted, so she was always wary of him.

"Brother Archie is very good to me. Don't worry, Xiaoyue, he won't do anything to me."

After all, she is a member of the royal family, so she, a maid, has nothing to be deceived about.

"A Luo, are you sure? How about I go with you." Liu Qiwen was not worried about her traveling far away with a man alone.

"Yes, let Sister Liu go with you, and that uncle." It would be best if Ding Yong has martial arts skills to follow him.

"Okay! Sister, you and Uncle Ding should go together. Brother Archie shouldn't object."

"Sister Liu, go back and pack your bags now."

"it is good."

Watching the two people leaving, Nanyue went in to find Tianxuan.

"Sister Tianxuan, I suspect that the man named Han has some conspiracy. Can you go to Ding Yong and ask him to follow A Luo and protect her safety all the way?"

"Okay." Tianxuan swallowed the bread, patted the crumbs and stepped out.

The sisters returned home, Ding Yong bought a house near their home, and A Luo went to find someone.

"Uncle Ding, Uncle Ding."

"Ahem, here we come." A Luo called for a while, and Ding Yong came out wearing a mask and opened the door.

"Uncle, you also have a cold."

"Well, I started coughing when I woke up this morning. It's really strange. I'm in good health and I've basically never had a cold."

"That's it! My sister and I were going on a long trip, and we wanted to go with you. Uncle Ding, you're sick, so you'd better have a good rest!"

"Ahem, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I'm in good health, and the cold comes and goes quickly. I'm going to pack my bags now." Ding Yong said and ran into the house.

"Uncle Ding doesn't even care about his health for the sake of his sister." Seeing how much Ding Yong loved his sister, A'luo recognized this brother-in-law in her heart.

Ding Yong, carrying a bag and wearing a mask, arrived at Liu's house and consciously stood far away from the two sisters.

"Brother Ding also has a cold."

"Qiwen, I rarely get cold. This time I may have been infected by someone outside. Please stay away from me."

"You can't come with us." Han Qianqi originally had no objection to bringing two more people with him, but now he was in trouble.

"Why? Didn't you say we would go together?"

"Aluo, he's caught a cold. If he falls ill on the road, we'll have to lose time."

"Brother Aqi is right, uncle, otherwise you should stay in the capital." A Luo thought about leaving early and returning to Beilin Palace as soon as possible.

"Aluo, cough cough, I'm in really good health. I'm just fine after being cold for two days. If you don't believe me, then I... I guarantee that I won't be able to marry Qiwen."

Ding Yong was anxious when he heard that he was not allowed to follow him. The young master in front of him looked a bit temperamental, and he really didn't look like he would like a commoner woman.

Liu Qiwen blushed heavily when she heard what he said.

"Uncle, you don't have to be like this." A Luo was dumbfounded.

"Anyway, ahem, if you don't let me go with you, I will follow you."

"Brother Archie, let Uncle Ding come with us so that we can take care of him on the road together." Ding Yong was able to follow him secretly on the road.

"it is good."

Han Qianqi glanced at Ding Yong with disgust. At worst, he would be thrown away on the road.

"Ahem, don't worry, Mr. Han, I won't drag you down on the road." Ding Yong patted his chest to assure him.

"Let's go!"

The carriage came all the way to the city gate, where a long line of people were waiting for inspection.

"What's going on these days? Even the city gates are inspected so strictly?" Liu Qiwen thought as she looked at the long queue.

"Sister, I heard from Xiaoyue that he might be someone who has sneaked into Lingyue Kingdom."

When they waited, the man who had just approached the city defender immediately shouted: "Seize this carriage."

A group of soldiers gathered around.

"Ahem, sir, we are good citizens. Is there any misunderstanding?"

The leader looked at the big man wearing a mask and still coughing and took a closer look.

"Push the carriage aside."

When the carriage came to the side, it was still surrounded, and everyone was asked about their net worth and name.

"Master, what about you?"

"Master, this is my master. We are from Cangyou Country. We are here to do business and sell goods. Our surname is Han."

"You guys can't leave the city recently."

"Master, what have we done?"

"Nothing has been done. The higher-ups have told me that people with colds cannot leave the city."

"He's the only one. We're all fine. Sir, please do me a favor. We have urgent matters to get out of the city." The coachman gave the man a piece of silver.

"No." Yin Zi was pushed back.

Han Qianqi was impatient and glanced at Ding Yong, "Then he stays and we leave the city."

"No, none of you can leave the city gate."

"Ahem, sir, why can't people with cold go out of the city gate?" Ding Yong was anxious. At first he was afraid of being left behind, but now he seemed to have a serious illness.

"The order from above, you all go back and don't hinder us from carrying out our official duties."

Han Qianqi frowned. Sure enough, he couldn't take this guy with him. Who was Tianqi so smart that he discovered the anomaly?

"Sister, why can't you get out?"

"There have been some abnormalities in the capital in the past few days. Maybe they are not looking for Lingyue Kingdom's work, but... patients."

Liu Qiwen is ten years older and can be considered a knowledgeable woman.

"Sister, what kind of patient is this?"

"The city may be sick."

Back at Liu's house, Ding Yong was further away from them.

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I've caused you trouble."

"Uncle, it's not your fault. You should go to the hospital to see a doctor to cure the cold."

"Okay, I won't bother you until it's cured." Ding Yong looked at Liu's house reluctantly.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Han, I made your trip in vain and you still can't leave the capital."

"Miss Liu, don't worry."

"If Mr. Han doesn't dislike it, he will stay here and live a simple life."

"Okay." Han Qianqi looked at the well aside and asked casually: "Miss Liu, is the water you use coming from the well in the yard?"

"Yes, I bought this house for the convenience of water."

“If a girl has a well at home, she doesn’t have to go outside to get water.

Liuzi, go fill the water tank. "

"Yes, master."
