Chapter 3 Out of the City
As the sun rose, the city gates opened, and the crowd began to commotion.

Carriage into town.

"I'll find you an inn. You should heal your injury before you go on the road?"

"No need! You haven't left the Nanling boundary yet, but you will be taken back by Xie Lin at any time!"

"..." Just your ass?
Really, Jiang Nan had the illusion of being kidnapped.

Could it be that this person has enmity with Xie Lin?
The sunlight came in through the gap of the car window, Jiang Nan's expression was hidden in the dark, and it took a while to reply: "He won't! There is no food in the car, I'll go prepare some dry food!"

The man stared at her for a while, and seeing her pick up the child and prepare to get off the car, he dragged the child back quickly.

The action was rude, and the little Xie Shu fell into the man's arms like a bun.

Xie Shu was awakened with a start, his eyes were strange and cold, and he burst into tears.

"What are you doing?!" Jiang Nan pushed the man angrily, hugged Xie Shu in his arms, and coaxed him.

"You buy dry food by yourself, leave the child behind, and I'll show you!"

"Who wants you to see? You scared him just now!"

After Jiang Nan roared ferociously, his eyes moved to the man's cuff where the sharp knife was hidden, feeling a little annoyed.

"I said, I'll show you the baby!" The man repeated impatiently, gritted his teeth, and didn't seem to be able to coax the baby at all.

"I don't worry about you!"

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Seeing that he was about to stand up and catch Xie Shu, Jiang Nan had no choice but to say urgently submissively: "Understood, don't touch him!"

After that, she asked Xie Shu to sit aside and gave him a piece of pancake to eat, "Shu'er stay in the carriage obediently, mother will go and buy delicious food for Shu'er to eat!"

"Okay!" Xie Shu replied in a childish voice, looked at the man timidly, and took small bites of the pancake.

Jiang Nan bought a large bag of steamed buns as quickly as possible, filled two jugs of water, and bought a candied haws on the way back.

Back on the carriage, Xie Shu huddled in the corner, with tears in his big eyes, staring at the man with anger but not words.

"Mom, he ate all my pancakes!" Xie Shu fell into Jiang Nan's arms, crying loudly from hunger.

Jiang Nan: "..."

"A piece of cake is not too big, I eat it as soon as I eat it, you child is like you, stingy!"

"???"

"But this child's appearance really doesn't look like Xie Lin's! No wonder Xie Lin didn't make him his son!" He closed his eyes, and added in a lazy tone, "I heard that you and Xie Lin had an affair before marriage. , married and gave birth in August, does he suspect that the child is not his?"

"!!!"

Jiang Nan clenched his fists tightly and didn't speak. Every word he said really hit the spotlight.

Nanling is full of eyeliner, but a man who is completely unfamiliar to her knows all these things about her, which is simply embarrassing.

"Back when he came to Beijing to discuss marriage, he had an affair with you before he had met many people. You are really good at hooking up people!"

"Like a father, like a son. This child is not so smart!"

"Are you finished?!" Jiang Nan couldn't bear the three sentences. She had never been an irritable person, but this man was in need of a beating from top to bottom.

After being yelled at, the man was stunned, and Xie Shu was so startled that he began to cry again.

"Tell him to cry less!" The man turned sideways impatiently.

Jiang Nan comforted Xie Shu, and seeing that the man was breathing calmly and was already sound asleep, she had the idea of ​​abandoning the car and leaving.

She didn't want to go back to Beijing with a man of unknown origin, and the man made it clear that he wanted to manipulate her, which made her very upset.

Packed up all the banknotes and valuables, lightly carried the child out of the carriage, avoided the crowd all the way, fed Xie Shu at the noodle stall in the alley, then got up and walked quickly to the gate of the city .

"Mother, where are we going? Don't you care about that uncle?" Xie Shu rarely went out, and was particularly curious about the stalls on the street. His two big eyes flickered around, and he couldn't get enough of it.

"Stealing rations is like killing an old mother, so what does he do?"

"It's not that he snatched it. I gave it to him. It's just that his mouth is too big and he ate it in two bites. Mother, Shu'er can take care of people. Is Shu'er good?"

Jiang Nan paused slightly, and said with a smile: "Great, Shu'er is the best!"

Xie Shu laughed happily: "Uncle said he and dad are friends, if I take good care of uncle, dad will like me, right? Will he like me like he likes brother?"

Jiang Nan's heart sank to the bottom of the valley. Not a few years after her death, the Nanling County Prince's Mansion was ransacked. It was the nine-year-old prince Xie Shu who personally led the army to raid the house. Xie Lin died in Xie Lin's house. hand.

Xie Shu has been charged with killing his biological father all his life, and he can't be washed away no matter what.

That young emperor was truly murderous.

While she was in a daze, Xie Shu broke free from his embrace and ran to the ground, shouting, "Father!"

Jiang Nan was startled, and turned to look at Xie Shu who was running.

A group of Nanling County King's soldiers appeared out of nowhere, and the leader dismounted from his horse, with a serious expression on his face, and was walking towards the Xunyang government office.

That person was Xie Lin.

There were people everywhere on the street, Jiang Nan was kept out of the crowd, Xie Shu was small, so he rushed to the government office in two or three strokes.

"Don't go there!" Jiang Nan hoarse, hurriedly chased after Xie Shu, her face pale with fright.

Xie Lin seemed to have heard the shout, and turned his head to look outside the government office. At the very moment, a tall figure flashed by, with his back turned to the direction of the government office, and hugged Xie Shu in his arms.

"Father is here!"

Xie Shu's mouth was covered, and he looked at the man who was holding him in a daze.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Nan hurriedly turned around, hidden in the crowd, and walked slowly towards the distance.

Inside the carriage at the entrance of the alley.

"The princess of the county really broke her word! You promised to go back to Beijing together, but you left me, who was seriously injured, and ran away?" The man had already changed into the clothes that the groom had left in the carriage before, and he was wearing coarse linen clothes. Appears small.

With thin skin and tender flesh, and a weak temperament, it is hard to hide his noble air from a poor family at first glance.

"I didn't promise you!"

The man's face became distorted with anger: "Do you know that someone is holding your portrait at the gate of the city, secretly comparing it, and those who go out of the city will definitely be interrogated! Do you think you can get out of the city alone with your child?"

"Is this true? How could Xie Lin come so fast?" Jiang Nan's eyes flashed with astonishment. What link went wrong?

"You think Xie Lin is a womanizer? Doesn't he know that his concubine has run away?" He said with a cold face, grabbed Jiang Nan by the collar and threw it into the carriage. Sitting on the front board of the car, the wheels turned as soon as the horse was steered.

Seeing that the gate of the city was right in front of him, Jiang Nan felt agitated and couldn't help asking, "Why don't you find a place to hide for a few days to avoid the limelight?"

"You're stupid, I don't want to talk to you!"

Jiang Nan: "."

The gate of the city was full of people, and the defenders took the portraits and compared them one by one. The speed of leaving the city was very slow. A woman was detained just because she had a pair of portrait eyes, and she was crying heartbroken.

"Are you sure you can leave the city?" Jiang Nan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

"Hide inside. Xunyang is the place you must pass through when you leave Nanling. Xie Lin must ask the county government to order the city gate to be closed. He will turn Xunyang City upside down. You will never be able to escape! As long as you go out This city gate, his hands are not so long!"

After speaking, he pulled the reins abruptly, and the carriage accelerated forward.
