Man Dong's eyes widened in astonishment. Princess Qinbao often came to the palace to look for the princess before. He knew that she was brave, but he didn't expect her to be so bold. "Princess, do you need to send someone out to look for her?"
Wen Jinhe shook his head, "It's not easy to find her in such a big world, and her identity cannot be revealed. Find a secret guard who knows Princess Qinbao to guard on the city wall. Once you enter the city, bring her to the post house immediately."
"Waiter, bring me all the good wine and food in the store." Li Jinshu took off the hat on his cloak and placed the long sword in his hand on the edge of the dining table.
The store clerk immediately came over with a towel to wipe the table, "Okay, miss, wait a moment, I'll be there soon."
This inn is not opened in the city, but outside the city, specifically to receive businessmen coming and going.
Contrary to the speculations of the emperor and Wen Jinhe, Princess Qinbao was still far away from Nancheng at this moment.
Once the bird that has been locked in a cage since childhood opens the door of the cage, it can fly wherever it wants.
After walking for more than half a month, Li Jinshu had only walked halfway, and he had not yet entered the thirteen northern cities.
Whenever I encounter an interesting place, I have to stop and play for most of the day, or even a whole day, which makes the process extremely slow.
The waiter brought several plates of food and put them on the table, "Please use them, Miss. These are our signature dishes in Yuncheng."
Li Jinshu stared at the plate full of red chili peppers. Is eating chili peppers the specialty of Yuncheng?
He scratched it with chopsticks, picked out the diced meat and put it into his mouth.
"Hiss." Li Jinshu fanned his mouth with his hand. It was so spicy that it even choked his throat.
He picked up the cup on the table and took a sip. It was full of wine, making it even spicier.
"Waiter, serve me tea quickly." Li Jinshu shouted.
There were not many guests in the inn, so the guy came over quickly.
The tea is made from tea leaves, so it is particularly spicy.
Li Jinshu looked at the waiter with lingering fear and asked: "Xiaoer, did you buy your chili peppers in the capital?"
The waiter held the teapot with a towel on his hand and replied with a warm smile: "Miss, are you kidding? All the peppers in Beidi Country come from the capital, but after the seeds are transported to our Yuncheng, this The chili peppers that grow out seem to have different ancestors and are extremely spicy, so they have become a specialty of Yuncheng, and most outsiders are not used to it. "
Two men walked in from the door of the inn, and the waiter hurriedly greeted them. "Are you staying in the hotel or dining? The restaurant has a rich menu, absolutely delicious food."
The two guests finished their meal quickly, paid their bills and left.
Li Jinshu took a very long time to eat this meal. Because it was too spicy, he drank three pots of tea.
In the woods outside the inn, the man with a black mole on his face who had just gone in to eat said, "Sir, there is someone inside. I am sure he is alone. It looks like he will be on the road today."
The man who was called an adult spat on the ground, "If we hadn't entered the city a day late, we wouldn't have pursued her so hard. This little bitch didn't take the usual route, otherwise we would have caught up with her."
They were ordered to go to the capital to capture Princess Qinbao of Beidi Kingdom. However, as soon as they contacted people in the palace, they were informed that Princess Qinbao had quietly left the palace the day before.
The destination should be Nancheng.
So they had to chase her all the way, but they didn't see her shadow for most of the way. They felt something was wrong, so they turned around.
We went around several cities before discovering her whereabouts. You said you just left the palace and went to Nancheng. You also spent the whole day traveling around the mountains and rivers, running to crowded places, eating or drinking, and simply playing with things to get lost.
"When she comes out on her way, find a place where no one is around and tie her up. She doesn't take a single guard with her when she goes out. This is to teach this delicate princess a lesson."
"Yes." The others nodded. They thought that this task would be completed soon. After all, she often left the palace and wandered around the capital. In addition, they had someone in the palace to spread the news. It was very easy to know the whereabouts of Princess Qinbao. As a result, it took so many days to find the person.
Kyoto should wait and be impatient, they don’t want to go back and be punished.
Li Jinshu had a good rest and felt that his stomach was not very full, so he continued on his horse.
It is now when the sun is high, and the blazing and dazzling sunlight shines particularly hot on the top of the head.
Li Jinshu rode his horse into a forest, and the little bits of gold sprinkled between the leaves seemed a bit cool.
"Huh." A group of people came out from around with knives, and Li Jinshu tightened the reins in fear.
After the horse stopped, she held the sword tightly with one hand, pulled the sword out of the scabbard with her right hand, and asked calmly: "Who are you?"
There is no mountain to support her here, so she shouldn't be a bandit. Besides, she is alone, so how could a bandit rob her?
"Come here and catch him alive." Those people didn't intend to talk nonsense with Li Jinshu at all. They wanted to take the person back quickly and get down to business.
The bay horse was a little frightened, and kept tapping on the spot with its hooves.
Li Jinshu looked at the people rushing up, tightened the reins with his left hand, and accelerated without hesitation. At the same time, the long sword in his hand kept swiping at his side to prevent those people from approaching.
It's a pity that her martial arts skills are good against some petty thieves. One can block ten. These people specialize in killing people, and she can't defeat them at all.
In panic, her calf was slashed with a knife, and blood flowed down the horse's belly. The pain caused her to drop the sword head from her hand.
Then he was kicked on the right shoulder and fell off the horse.
The two of them stepped forward and tied her hands together.
Li Jinshu asked anxiously: "Why are you arresting me? Help me, help me..."
The mouth was gagged, and a carriage rushed from the woods.
Li Jinshu was first put into the carriage and taken away.
"Brother, someone seems to be calling for help." Lu Hongan looked at Lu Yebai with some uncertainty.
The two of them went in the direction where the sound came from just now, and met a short bay horse running towards them.
Lu Yebai frowned slightly, and there was some doubt on his face as calm as the breeze. He pulled the horse's rope and saw a little blood on the maroon horse.
It shouldn't be her.
The two came to the scene of the incident, where there were obvious signs of a fight.
"Brother, what do you think this is? It seems to be an accessory only girls wear." Lu Hongan bent down and picked up a ruby token from the ground that had not been stained with ashes.
Lu Yebai snatched it over. He knew this thing. It belonged to Princess Qinbao of Beidi Kingdom. She often hung it around her waist.
Seeing the clear mark of the axle on the ground, Lu Yebai turned around and mounted his horse, saying, "Catch up and rescue the man."
Before Lu Hongan could react, Lu Yebai rode away. Even if he wanted to save someone, was it necessary to be so anxious?
Li Jinshu was locked in the carriage, with a man sitting inside looking at her. All she felt was fear at the moment.
No matter how innocent she was, she could still guess that these people came here specifically to catch her. Did they want to kill her or what?
