Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

Princess Chang An didn't bring much luggage with her when traveling. Seeing everyone's serious expressions, she couldn't help but be a little curious.

"I saw you looked unhappy just now. Could it be that something happened?"

Shen Fugui nodded in denial: "I was just passing through the town to help the people solve the problem of mole infestations. Maybe it's because we haven't had a good rest in the past few days, so everyone is a little tired."

The princess felt that her words were inevitably a bit suspicious, but it was probably not an important matter and she didn't take it to heart.

She said helplessly: "You should have told me directly just now, otherwise I wouldn't be so eager to let you leave with me."

"We have been delayed for some time in the town, and now we must leave as soon as possible. On the contrary, the princess has not been able to get the news because of our hard work, and she must be extremely exhausted from the continuous journey." Shen Fugui gently took off his coat with some distress. Draped on the princess.

The princess's face turned red, she smelled the faint fragrance of sandalwood on Shen Fugui's body, and started to falter when she spoke.

"How could this be? After all, we have to go to the Western Region earlier." After the princess finished speaking, she continued, "But there is one thing that needs to be paid attention to. When I came here, I always felt that someone was following me. So. I asked the ordinary attendants to go another way, and then I barely got rid of them. I just don't know when they will react, maybe they are already on the way to catch up. "

"As long as we pass to the west of the Taihang Mountains, my eldest brother will come to pick us up. It's just that it still takes seven days to go to the west of the Taihang Mountains. Now I just hope that the weather will be better and not delay our journey." Shen Fugui looked worriedly and gradually became gloomy. Come down day.

Weather is one of the most difficult factors to control. If there is heavy rain or strong winds, you cannot force the journey.

As long as there is no princess, the Shen family will not be too pretentious.

It's just that if anything goes wrong with Princess Jingui now, the Shen family will definitely not be able to live with it.

Thinking of this, Yao Shu began to tremble in her heart.

She couldn't tell whether the person the princess was following was someone sent by the emperor or someone from the Minister of Rites.

But no matter who you are, you need to be careful.

But in all matters judged by humans, there will be too many or too few errors.

If these people decided that the Shen family was not good to the princess just because of one look, then the Shen family would not be able to explain clearly even if they expressed their heart to the princess.

At this point, she sighed heavily.

There were only five of them on the carriage, and Shen Nanshan soon realized that he was in a low mood.

Just as he was about to ask, Sun Qing on the side changed the subject.

"Where are we going next?"

Sun Qing saw Yao Shu's worry and understood what was in her heart at the moment, so naturally she couldn't say it directly in front of the princess.

Yao Shu couldn't help feeling a little emotional when she realized that Sun Qing could have such delicate observation skills and thoughts.

She turned to look at Sun Qing and echoed: "The next place is Prince Jing's city, but now that he is in the capital, he doesn't know what the situation is in this city."

After hearing Yao Shu's words, the expressions of several people present gradually became serious.

At this moment, Yao Shu suddenly heard the sound of successfully punching in the system.

I haven't explored new places these days, so I haven't heard the sound of the system for a long time.

Now, the sudden sound made Yao Shu a little surprised for a moment.

Seeing her obvious shock, Shen Nanshan couldn't help but echoed: "Did something happen?"

Yao Shu shook her head, checking the rewards in the system for successfully clocking in, and responded: "Maybe it was the wind that blew just now, which made me catch a cold."

Hearing this, Shen Nanshan frowned in surprise: "What kind of wind?"

"It's okay, it's all over."

Yao Shu's ambiguous words made Shen Nanshan feel even more strange.

However, seeing that Yao Shu didn't want to say anything, Shen Nanshan didn't ask.

They walked all day and did not reach the city until midnight.

Since it was inconvenient to enter the city at night, they planned to rest at a post station outside the city for the night.

As soon as I entered the inn, I noticed that it was particularly deserted.

A cold wind blew, making Yao Shu couldn't help but shiver.

Finally, he pushed open the creaking old wooden door and looked into the dilapidated garden inside.

This doesn't look like an inn where people can live, but looking at the lanterns hanging outside, it's obvious that guests can be entertained inside.

Soon the waiter rushed over at a trot. He looked them up and down, seeming to realize that Yao Shu and others were either rich or noble, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.

Finally, he hurriedly said: "Are you going to be top-notch or stay in a hotel?"

"We'll stay here for one night today."

Shen Bei is well-informed, so all the work of dealing with others is left to him.

After hearing this, the waiter seemed to be getting happier.

He quickly greeted a few people and walked towards the inn.

Yao Shu felt very strange and signaled to ask.

Shen Bei nodded understandingly: "I wonder if this little brother can tell me why this place is so dilapidated. Logically speaking, this place should have many guests coming and going. How can it be like this?"

"These are all your illusions. No one comes to this city on weekdays. Since Prince Jing left here, there is only one person named Wang in charge of punishment. He is simply a bully, and many people in the town They don't dare to provoke him. In addition, he is greedy and vicious, but everyone who comes here will be robbed by him. Naturally, no one will come." The waiter led a few people to the second floor. guest room, while speaking in a low voice.

Seeing that several people were about to open the door and enter, Yao Shu said softly: "Everyone is hungry all the way, so why not prepare some food and have a good meal first."

Upon hearing this, several people quickly responded.

There was a hint of disappointment in the waiter's eyes that was fleeting.

After a moment, he spoke softly: "Guests, please follow me."

After placing them in the hall on the first floor, they turned around and left in the name of urging the chef to cook immediately.

Seeing that there were only a few of them in the huge inn, it was a bit eerie.

In order not to attract attention, they stationed some guards in the forest not far away, and only a few of them came to the inn.

Now it seems that Yao Shu actually regrets such a decision.

She always felt that this waiter was particularly abnormal, and there were all kinds of strange things in this inn.

She carefully asked other people's opinions: "Why don't we stay in the carriage for one night."
