queen she is not doing business

Chapter 40 It's Scary

Although Sheng Fengxue had many guesses in her heart, she still didn't dare to be careless. After leaving the mountain temple, she rushed back non-stop.

Fortunately, the map was still in her arms, otherwise, facing so many criss-crossing roads, she would have to get lost.

She decided that all her guesses must be confirmed with Jun Yi herself after she rescued Jun Yi.

The whole thing is just too weird!

After more than an hour, Sheng Fengxue finally arrived at the store where they stayed at night, she didn't go in, but asked the passerby where the nearest inn was.

After confirming again and again, she rode her horse to go in another direction.

It's still a long way from here.

Post stations are responsible for various political, economic, cultural, military and other information transmission tasks.

Sheng Fengxue knew that the relationship between Jun Yi and Huan Ri Chu was extraordinary, so she decided that if she used the name of a friend of His Highness the Prince, plus the jade pendant she had secretly brought along, she would definitely be able to get help from the post station.

Any title of His Royal Highness is fine.

After riding the horse, she finally arrived at the post station in the middle of the morning.

A not-so-magnificent building built at an intersection, with tall buildings in the middle and courtyards on both sides, where various flowers are planted.

The environment is quiet and there is no one in sight.

Sheng Fengxue dismounted from her horse, brought the brown horse to the corner of the ancient well, brought water up for the horse to drink, and then she led it to the opposite grassland.

Then she turned back to the gate of the station again.

Still no one to be seen.

Sheng Fengxue suddenly felt that he had gone to the wrong place!

But there is indeed a plaque here, which clearly says "Ning'an Town Post Station".

Sheng Fengxue thought for a while, and finally walked in, wanting to see the situation first.

Sheng Fengxue drove straight in like this, and no one came out to stop her.

Stepping into the gate, you will see a square courtyard, the ground is covered with weeds, and there is a road leading directly to the front living room.

Sheng Fengxue frowned, this place is actually similar to the wilderness, there are two horses in a remote corner, the horses are grazing leisurely, they are not moved when they see people coming.

Looking around, but still seeing no one, Sheng Fengxue walked towards the half-open door.

Probe inside, a round wooden table inside is the most conspicuous, it is full of large and small plates, some plates are half full of vegetables, and some plates are only left with a layer of oil.

There was a hand by the wall, and half of the head was protruding from the side of the round wooden table. In front of this man were several small white porcelain wine bottles that had been poured down.

One glance at Sheng Fengxue knew that this person was drunk.

The smell of alcohol in the room is disgusting.

Sheng Fengxue walked over holding her nose, the snoring of the man became louder and louder, she kicked the man a few times, but the man remained unmoved.

"..." Sheng Fengxue really wanted to cry but had no tears.

This is completely different from what she imagined!

It looked like this guy wouldn't wake up for a while, Sheng Fengxue didn't have time to wait here, so he kicked this guy a few times in a fit of irritability, and then went out quickly.

After standing in front of the hall and waiting for a while, still no one came, she walked out quickly, and turned back just as she was about to go out.

I saw her go straight to the corner of the courtyard, and then chose the most capable horse and led it out.

This horse is stronger than Gu Zhian's.

Sheng Fengxue now finally understood the reason why everyone looked disgusted when she inquired about the inn.

This road was obviously not feasible, and Sheng Fengxue didn't want to alarm the government, so he rode his horse again to the avenue where he asked for directions.

When she met a peddler walking along the street, Sheng Fengxue asked him about the surrounding situation carefully. After the man left, she found a clean place to draw a map of the surrounding area with small stones.

It has been a day and a night since she set off from the Prince's Mansion, plus the half day she has been delayed, about twenty hours have passed.

It was too late to go back to rescue the soldiers, and they asked to go back before dawn tomorrow.

There are probably less than ten hours left.

It's too late no matter what!

There are Qingshui Town and Hongshan Town around Ning'an Town, and a little further away is Yujia Town, which was passed by in the wind and snow.

Yujia Town is the town where Sheng Fengxue and Yueying met for the first time.

The three towns are connected, and if you stay around the clock, you can arrive at the earliest in the evening.

Find a good helper and rush back. If there are no accidents, we will definitely be able to get back before dawn tomorrow.

Far water can't save near fire, now Sheng Fengxue can only gamble, I hope that shopkeeper still remembers herself and what Yueying once said.

Yujia Town can go to the border to ride a horse for half a day and then return to Yan Mansion, Sheng Fengxue obviously doesn't want to do that.

After making up her mind, she got on her horse and rushed to Qingshui Town...

Sheng Fengxue hadn't come back after a day and a night, Shu Fang and the others were very worried, but it was not easy to ask Xue Ji directly, so they could only discuss in a low voice while having lunch.

"Could something have happened?" It was the always timid Yingxue who asked the question.

"Xue Ji hasn't appeared since she took Kongqin away," Luo Jinping said in a low voice, "I don't know if she followed her out too."

"If Xue Ji follows, nothing will happen." Shu Fang said.

"Who knows," Chunliang muttered, "What if Xue Ji takes this opportunity to tease Kongqin, don't forget that Kongqin also came out of the princess mansion just like her."

"It looks as if they don't know each other."

Luo Jinping also said that after she buried her head lower, she boldly guessed: "Do you think she will take this good opportunity to kill Kong Qin? After all, we are the only ones who know Kong Qin, even if we Which one of them disappears, others will not pay too much attention."

Luo Jinping was often raped by Xue Ji, so she always felt that Xue Ji was the darkest woman she had ever seen.

"It shouldn't be."

Shu Fang said that she knew a little bit about the inside story, so that everyone wouldn't guess randomly, she said again: "I guess she's coming back soon."

Qili and Lingluo were taken away once, Xueji was also taken away once, and they went out for about three days and three nights.

So Shu Fang felt that Sheng Fengxue should also be able to come back at that time.

"We have no power or power here, even if we know that something happened to Kongqin, we don't know who to ask for help." Yingxue shrank her head and said in a low voice.

"She belongs to Princess Ruyi, I don't know if something happens to Kongqin, Princess Ruyi will take care of her." Chun Liang also said.

"I shouldn't care about it," Luo Jinping frowned, "Kongqin was sent here, and she was abandoned by Princess Ruyi, so she naturally won't care about it."

Everyone nodded and agreed with Luo Jinping's words.

Shu Fang rested his forehead and was speechless, he could only hope that Sheng Fengxue would be lucky and that nothing would happen to him.

The time calculation was wrong, and when Sheng Fengxue finally arrived at the destination, it was already Haishi.

The inn had long been closed, only the two lanterns under the eaves gave off a faint light, and the Nangong pawn shop next door was long gone, not even a little light.

The terrain here is secluded, not as prosperous as those inns before, and they will basically close at Xu time.

Sheng Fengxue tied the horse to the wooden post next to it, walked over and knocked on the door without hesitation...
