Chapter 409 Must stay
  Before entering the town, there was a guard.
  Shen Zhuoxi knew that he would be on the road for several days and was uncertain about anything he would encounter on the way, so he deliberately had someone prepare a low-key and unobtrusive carriage.
  But Shen Xinyu is different. I don't know if it's to show that she is living a good life now. You can see the luxury from the appearance of the carriage.
  The person guarding the entrance to the town was a young man who looked to be in his twenties. He stopped a few carriages and looked at them, saying, "Where are you going?"
  Huizhi came forward and explained: "We are just medicinal material dealers passing by Lizhou. We have been traveling for half a day and want to take a rest when we pass by. I wonder if it can be convenient for me?"
  The young man glanced into the carriage and asked suspiciously, "Woman?"
  "Yes." Hui Zhi quietly handed over some broken silver: "This is my young lady. The master and young master are both ill and have nothing to do. I have to ask the young lady to purchase medicinal materials."
  "Just because she is a woman, she does not pose a threat to your town, and there is no other place to stay around. Can you just make it easier?"
  The young man shook the pieces of silver in his hand, and there was an unknown smile on his lips: "The woman is brave enough to dare to pass by here. For the sake of the silver, I give you a piece of advice."
  "Eat and go, don't stay here." Having said this, the young man pointed to the dark sky: "It's going to rain heavily today, which is not a good day."
  "Yes." Seeing him relent, Hui Zhi quickly smiled and said, "We'll leave immediately after dinner."
  The young man frowned and his eyes fell on Shen Xinyu's carriage: "Wait a minute."
  "Brother, is there anything else?" Hui Zhi asked with a smile on her face.
  "Isn't this carriage just a medicine dealer?" The young man walked around the carriage and looked at Lin San who was riding a horse: "Which businessman uses pear wood for his carriage?"
  "This is my young lady too, but she's a bit pampered." Huizhi didn't want to get into trouble, so she lowered her voice and said to the young man, "She's very pampered and willful. She insists on playing with her."
  The young man was doubtful and said: "It's best this way. This carriage is too eye-catching and it's not a good thing. Go in. Don't ask around or talk nonsense when you enter the town. Do you understand?"
  "I know." Hui Zhi took another silver hairpin from her head and handed it over: "Thank you for reminding me, brother."
  When the young man saw her coming onto the road, he waved his hand and let them go into the city.
  "It's so troublesome to get into the city." Hui Zhi returned to the carriage, combed her hair and said, "I don't know what's going on inside."
  "You'll know in a minute." Shen Zhuoxi took off the gold hairpin on her head, found a simple beaded flower hairpin, and took off all the extra accessories before opening the curtain and looking outside.
  The sky was gloomier than before, mixed with strong winds, which was obviously a sign that the rain was coming.
  The mountain road is already difficult to navigate, and the situation will be even worse if it encounters heavy rain.
  Shen Zhuoxi said in a deep voice: "He said it was going to rain. It's a special day. I'm afraid it means that today is the day when gangsters enter the town. Stop eating and leave directly. It's best to leave the town before the rain falls."
  Huizhi nodded and said: "The merchants have a lot of goods. This town is a must-go. If it rains heavily, you can only choose to stay overnight. It is also a good time for gangsters to take action. Let's not go into this muddy water."
  Shen Xinyu, who was in the carriage behind, had no idea what Shen Zhuoxi's master and servant were planning, nor did he know that this town was dangerous.
  When he arrived at the town, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally, I can stop and rest. I'm exhausted all the time. Shen Zhuoxi is a miserable person. I've been used to it for a long time, but I'm not used to it."
  "My slave, it seems something is wrong." Luluo opened the carriage curtain and looked out: "This town is the only resting place we encountered along the way."
  "Logically speaking, this kind of place should be extremely prosperous, but on such a big street, there are only a few people. Occasionally there is a pedestrian, but he is in a hurry."
  "What could be the problem?" Shen Xinyu disagreed and followed Luluo's movements: "It's probably because it's going to rain, so there's no one on the street."
  Luluo glanced at it again, frowned and said, "Something's wrong, even if it rains heavily, the businesses on the street will not close, but you see, they are all closed."
  Shen Xinyu still felt that it was nothing: "It's just a town, what else can I do? I'm very tired. Go ask Shen Zhuoxi where you plan to rest."
  After entering the town, the carriage did not gallop, but walked slowly through the streets.
  Luluo caught up with her in a few steps, asked Huizhi a few questions, and then returned to the carriage: "Madam, the princess also feels that it is not suitable to stay here for a long time, and plans to go straight on without stopping."
  "Don't stop?" When Shen Xinyu heard this, she immediately threw the kettle in her hand: "I'm pregnant after all. Even a normal person can't bear to drive for most of the day."
  "What's wrong? Look, she just did it on purpose. She knew I was unwell and wanted to torment me!"
  Luluo looked at her ferocious expression and couldn't say anything. She could only pick up the kettle on the ground and said, "If you don't endure it any longer, the second lady will definitely find a place to rest after dark."
  "I can't bear it anymore. I have to compromise once. I will be dominated by her all the way." Shen Xinyu stood up and said, "Stop the car and go find Shen Zhuoxi. Tell me that I am very unwell."
  "I have to get out of the car to fix it and let her come and see me!"
  Lu Luo hesitated for a moment, but still followed her instructions and went to find Shen Zhuoxi.
  Huizhi was outside the carriage. After listening to Luluo's words, she asked Shen Zhuoxi for instructions: "Princess, the eldest lady said she is feeling unwell. Please go and see a doctor."
  "Let her bear it." Shen Zhuoxi stopped the carriage, opened the curtain and said to Luluo: "This town is not peaceful, let's wait until we get out of town."
  "Princess." Luluo didn't want to stop selfishly, so she symbolically persuaded: "Mrs. Cai just said that she was feeling unwell. She endured it all the way and she couldn't move. Just to check her pulse, why don't you take a look?"
  Before Shen Zhuoxi could refuse, Shen Xinyu had already caught up with her hands on her stomach. The strong wind blew her bun loose, making her even more embarrassed.
  Shen Xinyu raised her eyebrows: "Does it look like you can't move?"
  Luluo looked embarrassed and didn't know how to explain.
  Shen Xinyu's face turned pale, and she stumbled forward, grabbed Shen Zhuoxi's carriage, and said, "My stomach hurts. Come down quickly and feel my pulse. I don't want to die."
  "You are full of energy and you can't die." Shen Zhuoxi smiled and looked towards the street.
  It has to be said that Shen Xinyu is really good at choosing places. The place where they stayed happened to be at the entrance of an inn.
  The door of the inn was half open, and there was someone inside who was looking outside. He must have been attracted by Shen Xinyu's wailing.
  "Second sister, I know you hate me." Seeing that she had no reaction, Shen Xinyu continued: "But the child in my belly is innocent. I am really uncomfortable. There happens to be a place to rest here."
  "Let's stop and rest for an hour, then wait for a while before setting off, okay?"
  Shen Zhuoxi was about to refuse when heavy rain suddenly fell unexpectedly.
  In just a few breaths of time, it became a torrential downpour, and the rain curtain became a continuous one, and even the place ten steps away could not be seen.
  Fortunately, a few people happened to be under the eaves of the inn, so they didn't get soaked.
  Shen Zhuoxi's heart sank again - it was impossible to travel in this weather. Even if he set off, he might not be able to leave the city. It seemed that he had to stay in the town!
