Chapter 216 Storm in the middle of the night
Qin Shuhuang took care of the redness and swelling on his thigh, admired Xuan Cang's stiff back for a while, and then told him, "I'm fine."

Xuan Cang turned around and looked at Qin Shuhuang, who was neatly dressed. He breathed a sigh of relief, and then he immediately said: "Your Highness, we'd better change our clothes."

Although Qin Shuhuang was wearing convenient men's clothes before, if you look closely, you can see that Qin Shuhuang is a woman. If it attracts people's attention, it is better to change into women's clothes so as not to be conspicuous.

Qin Shuhuang nodded. She discovered it when she arrived in Chizhou. While riding on the official road, strange eyes looked at her from time to time. Even wearing a curtain hat was useless.

It's just that men's clothes were more convenient for riding horses at that time, so I never changed them. Now that I'm on the ship, I naturally have to change them.

Qin Shuhuang took the baggage she carried with her and unpacked it. There were several different sets of clothes inside. Qin Shuhuang handed a set of men's robes to Xuan Cang, and she took a set of women's skirts.

When Qin Shuhuang handed over the clothes, Xuan Cang was slightly surprised. He never expected that Qin Shuhuang would prepare them for him.

He was still thinking about how he would go to the men on the boat to buy an emergency outfit or two tomorrow morning. It was best to buy new clothes, otherwise he would always feel uncomfortable if they were worn by others. Now he didn't have to think so much.

Seeing that he was stunned, Qin Shuhuang said, "What are you doing here? Try to see if it fits. If it doesn't fit, I will change it tonight so that I can wear it tomorrow."

The two of them answered each other like this, really like an ordinary couple.

Xuan Cang nodded quickly after hearing this.

This dress is made according to Xie Xuanye's size, how could it not fit Xuan Cang.

The innermost lining is made of the softest cotton, which is close-fitting, breathable, and inconspicuous. The outer garment is made of coarse linen used by ordinary people.

Qin Shuhuang had prepared it when he was at the eldest princess's residence.

When Xuan Cang put on this indigo robe worn by ordinary men, everything immediately suited him.

Qin Shuhuang also changed into men's riding clothes. She wore a ginger-yellow coarse cloth dress, and tied up her black hair with a lotus-colored handkerchief, making her look like a young lady from a common people's family. , but his temperament cannot be completely restrained for the time being.

In the evening, the two of them did not go out to buy food on the boat. Instead, they filled their stomachs by placing the steamed buns they had brought from the inn in the morning on the brazier to heat them up.

There is only one bed and it is small.

Xuan Cang simply made a bed beside the bed.

It looked like Qin Shuhuang was sleeping on the bed and Xuan Cang was sleeping on the floor. In fact, it was no different than both of them sleeping on the ground. The bed Qin Shuhuang slept on was just covered with an extra layer of wooden boards.

The room was small, and it looked like the two of them were sleeping on a large bed, sharing the same bed.

In the middle of the night, the passenger ship suddenly encountered wind and waves on the Lingjiang River, and the ship rocked.

Qin Shuhuang, who was sleeping soundly, was suddenly shaken. He lost his balance and fell off the bed, hitting Xuan Cang's arms.

Qin Shuhuang was startled. When she found that Xuan Cang was holding her tightly in his arms, one arm grabbing the fixed wooden board next to her, the panic in her heart dissipated in an instant.

She closed her eyes again and continued sleeping in Xuan Cang's arms calmly.

The quilt provided on the boat was very thin. In the middle of the night, the temperature dropped and became even colder. Being held in Xuan Cang's arms like this, Qin Shuhuang felt warmer with his body temperature. Even though the boat was still shaking, Qin Shuhuang But it felt like I was in a cradle, and I slept more peacefully.

When Qin Shuhuang suddenly rolled into his arms, Xuan Cang didn't think anything, subconsciously caught her and held her tightly in his arms.

Afraid that the ship's hull would shake more violently, Xuan Cang fixed his body. Otherwise, there were wooden boards on both sides of the room, and he was likely to be injured if he hit it.

After doing this, Xuan Cang realized the current situation of the two of them.

He was no longer Xie Xuanye now, but he was so close to Qin Shuhuang... But he didn't feel at ease letting Qin Shuhuang go at this time.

In just a short moment, Xuan Cang found a dozen reasons in his heart and prepared to explain to Qin Shuhuang.

But when she looked down, she saw Qin Shuhuang buried in her arms, breathing long and soundly asleep. She didn't even wake up due to such a big movement.

It seems like you are sleeping more deeply?

Xuan Cang suddenly sweated. Maybe Qin Shuhuang was too tired from running around for the past two days and slept too soundly.

Fortunately, this was the case, otherwise he wouldn't be able to explain it, and none of the reasons he came up with were reliable.

Qin Shuhuang leaned in his arms, and he held her tightly with one of his long arms. He lowered his eyes and saw Qin Shuhuang's beautiful face and the warm breath on her face.

For a moment just now, Xuan Cang even hoped that this moment could be frozen.

The fragrant lips are very close, and there is no mask on his face now. In fact, Qin Shuhuang is his wife.

Xuan Cang couldn't help but pull Qin Shuhuang into his arms again. In this cramped room, when Xuan Cang regained his senses, his cool lips were already on Qin Shuhuang's lips... …

Qin Shuhuang pretending to sleep:!
Xuan Cang came back to his senses:!

The most primitive impulse in his body was instantly awakened. After Xuan Cang realized what he had done to Qin Shuhuang, he immediately moved his lips away, his deep eyes filled with darkness.

He was afraid that he would do something blasphemous to Qin Shuhuang again, so he tried his best to restrain his desires, then buried his head in the crook of Qin Shuhuang's neck, smelled Qin Shuhuang's familiar scent, and used the greatest perseverance to calm his heart. of flame.

Qin Shuhuang just let him hold her like this. In the small cabin, it seemed good to be able to hug each other like this.

Unconsciously, the passenger ship stopped shaking and the cabin became stable.

But Xuan Cang didn't let go of Qin Shuhuang immediately.

It wasn't until the morning of the next day that the sound of people on the passenger ship talking and washing could be heard outside the room. Xuan Cang quietly let go of his arms, and then used the slightest movement to carry Qin Shuhuang to the wooden bed and lie down. He put away the simple bedding on the ground and leaned against the cabin. Close your eyes and relax on the wall.

When Xuan Cang didn't know, Qin Shuhuang opened his eyes and glanced at Xuan Cang, and then fell back into a comfortable sleep.

The team of envoys heading to Beidi.

After spending the night at the next scheduled stop on the second day, we set off the next day and continued north.

After Qin Shuhuang left, Ruihe put on Qin Shuhuang's clothes. He always wore a hood to cover his face when he came in and out. He coughed from time to time, and deliberately publicized that Qin Shuhuang was infected with the cold, even if he stayed in the house all day. No one thought it was strange that they didn't even come out of the carriage.

Before noon on the third day, when the envoys' team reached a fork in the road, they suddenly split into two teams. Liu Renren and his people still took the originally planned road, and one-third of the people and Qin Shu were separated. Huang's carriage took another route.

Tisang, who had been falling behind, immediately got the news.

Tisang frowned and confirmed to the guard who reported the news, "Are they really divided into two teams?"

"Returning to Mr. Tisang, I saw it with my own eyes. I can't be wrong. Her Royal Highness the Princess's carriage took a different route."

"I see, let's go."

After the guards left, Tisang's eyes fell on the person opposite, "General Liu, what do you think we should do next?"
