After dinner, the man in gray brought clean clothes and toiletries.
I haven't washed or dressed for more than ten days in such a hot day. Not only does my body smell bad, but it also feels dry and itchy.
Yan Muyun had no choice but to let down her guard, gave Qingge'er a warm bath, and quickly washed herself.
Maybe because he felt comfortable after taking a shower, Qingge fell asleep as soon as he climbed onto the bed. Yan Mujun thought for a while and just when she was feeling sleepy, she heard a creaky sound, which was the sound of the door being pushed open.
"Pack up quickly and get ready to go." The man in gray did not even look at the mother and son on the bed. He left after saying this.
Yan Muyun's drowsy mind suddenly cleared up. She had thought she could stay in the inn for one night, but now it seemed that the other party might just be waiting for it to be convenient to go into the city at night.
She and Qingge'er were both lying on the bed with their clothes on, and there was nothing to clean up, so she just picked up the sleeping Qingge'er and carried him out of the room.
When they left the inn, they saw a horse-drawn carriage prepared outside. It seemed that they, mother and son, would no longer have to suffer the pain of riding horses.
The night was as dark as ink, but the carriage was moving at a fast pace. Yan Muyun held Qing Ge'er in her arms, trying her best to help him reduce the impact of the bumpy ride.
The carriage was very stuffy and she felt Qing'er's sweat on his head. She lifted the curtain and looked out, and found that there was a forest outside and the road was very bumpy. It seemed that they were not on the official road.
Yan Muyun was just wondering why the men in gray didn't take the official road when the carriage shook violently a few times and slowly stopped. The sound of the men in gray talking came from the front.
"Why did you stop suddenly?"
"There seems to be an ambush ahead."
As soon as the words fell, a strange sweet fragrance suddenly filled the air. "Not good, hold your breath, cover your mouth and nose, turn your horse around and return the same way."
The carriage quickly changed direction and started moving forward again, more than twice as fast as before.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang in front, followed by smoke all around. Even a martial artist with sharp eyes and ears could not see the scene clearly.
Guessing that someone was coming to rescue her, Yan Muyun hugged Qingge'er tightly. Worried about his safety, she quickly took off her coat and tied Qingge'er's arms together with her own.
Soon, the sound of fighting was heard outside, and the horses neighed and galloped forward.
Yan Muyun lay face down in the carriage, holding Qing Ge'er tightly under her body. The carriage was shaking violently, as if it would break apart in the next moment, but she could still clearly hear the sound of fighting outside getting smaller and smaller.
The curtain of the carriage was lifted from the outside, "Mrs. Gu, please don't struggle. I'm here to save you and Young Master Gu." As the strange man finished his words, Yan Muyun and Qing Ge'er were forced to jump out of the carriage.
After landing, Yan Muyun was dragged forward. There was thick smoke in front of her eyes and she couldn't open her eyes at all. Her head was dizzy and she couldn't tell east from west.
After running for about a cup of tea, another person appeared in front of them. The two of them carried her and Qing Ge'er forward, and she didn't have to spend too much effort.
"Riding a horse makes too much noise, Miss Third will have to work harder."
Hearing Dongyu's voice, Yan Muyun felt relieved and asked in a low voice, "Second sister is here too?"
"Miss, you are waiting at the inn in the town ahead." Dong Yu replied in a deep voice.
Yan Mujun couldn't describe the feeling in her heart, happy but also sad, and she wanted to cry.
When she first became pregnant with Qing'er, it was Yan Muxi who stood up for her. Now, he was risking his life to run around for them and their son. She was afraid that she would never be able to repay his kindness time and time again in this lifetime.
When they returned to the inn, it was almost dawn.
Yan Muxi was waiting in the room. When he saw Yan Mujun carrying Qing Ge'er over, he quickly reached out to take Qing Ge'er and said, "You are sleeping so soundly. Did you take the medicine?"
Dong Yu explained with a smile, "The sleeping pills that the young lady prepared were not used at all. The little guy slept so soundly and even snored all the way!"
Yan Muxi was relieved after hearing that. "After more than ten days of sleeping outdoors, I was worried that Qing Ge'er wouldn't be able to hold on at such a young age. I didn't expect that the little guy would be so tough, with a rosy face and a better complexion than my third sister!"
Seeing the familiar people in person, Yan Muyun felt grateful and fortunate for surviving the disaster. She couldn't help but wet her eyelashes with tears. Of all the words she wanted to say, only two words remained: "Thank you!"
"We are sisters, it would be awkward to thank you." Yan Muxi glared at Yan Mujun and put Qing Ge'er on the bed. "Besides, it's not the time to thank you yet. I used a trick to sneak you and Qing Ge'er out tonight. If you want to return to Northern Xinjiang safely, it will not be easy."
They chased without stopping all the way here and finally caught up with the group of people. This place is less than twenty miles away from Luodu City. Before dawn, the people behind them will receive the news that Yan Muyun and her son have been kidnapped.
There will be many checkpoints on the way back to the northern border, so the adults can cover up. However, Qing'er's size and age make it difficult to conceal. If the mother and son fall into the hands of the other party again, even gods may not be able to rescue them.
Yan Muyun's head was still dizzy, and she asked worriedly, "Then has Second Sister thought about the future plan?"
Yan Muxi smiled at her and said, "It's too dangerous to go back to Northern Frontier. Let's not go back to Northern Frontier for now. Let's make plans after the storm has passed."
"So where do we go next?"
"The most dangerous place is also the safest place. Let's go back to Luodu City and hide there first."
Yan Muyun agreed without thinking, "Okay, I'll listen to you, second sister."
The next day, Yan Muyun changed her clothes, and Qing Ge'er was also dressed up as a girl, and followed the carriage team into Luodu City.
After succeeding last night, Yan Muxi ordered Uncle Ge's men to flee to the northwest. The people behind them did not expect that they would take the initiative to approach the den of tigers and wolves, so the group entered Luodu City safely.
After entering the city, the group did not stay at an inn, but instead stayed in a small courtyard with three entrances arranged by the coach and horse company. The courtyard was only three miles away from the Dafeng Palace, and the Meridian Gate Tower could be clearly seen from the roof.
Staying next to the tiger's den, Yan Muyun was terrified for a few days, but when she saw that nothing happened, she relaxed.
The older one was relaxed, but the younger one was very unhappy. Qingge didn't want to wear a pink skirt every day because her feet couldn't be seen when she ran, and it was a nuisance when she climbed high and jumped low.
After breakfast, several people sat under the eaves and chatted. Seeing Qing Ge'er fall on his butt after turning around, Yan Muxi couldn't help but smile.
"Qing is full of energy every day, so cute."
"She's just cute now! I was thinking of having another daughter with Gu Yunting, so that I can have both a son and a daughter! Now it seems I'd better forget it. I'm really afraid that she won't be able to get married after she grows up." Yan Mujun turned her eyes away, unable to bear to look at her son again.
No wonder his mother complained about it, Qingge was born with a masculine look, and his skin was not very fair. He was sweating and dirty after playing, and his bun was crooked, which really affected the appearance.
Yan Muxi joked, "Don't give up! Who knows, maybe our daughter will look like her mother!"
Yan Muyun curled her lips and said, "I dare not bet on it. Besides, most daughters look like their fathers, and only a few look like their mothers. For example, you, my second sister, and my younger sisters all look more like Yan Yongchen. Only my eldest sister looks completely like our mother."
When Yan Muqing was mentioned, the smiles on the two sisters' faces mostly faded.
In the past two days, the situation in Luodu City has become increasingly delicate, and the prince and the people behind him are likely to take action.
If the prince can successfully ascend the throne, Yan Muqing will be safe. If he fails, Yan Muqing will probably not have a good ending just like in the dream.
