Palace Concubine Policy: Invincible Queen

Chapter 549 Diversion to Fengcheng (2)
"Oh! Thank you, uncle!" Dong Xiaowan lifted the curtain and said to the driver with a smile.

Ouyang Zhexuan stepped out of the car first, got out of the car, and then carefully helped Dong Xiaowan out of the car.

Dong Xiaowan let Ouyang Zhexuan carry her out of the car, then took out two taels of silver from his arms and gave it to the driver, nodding in greeting.

The coachman collected the money, whipped his whip and galloped away.

Ouyang Zhexuan helped Dong Xiaowan to walk to the inn.

Dong Xiaowan quickly grabbed him and said, "Where are you going?"

Ouyang Zhexuan said suspiciously: "Go to the inn and settle down!"

"You can't go to the inn!" Dong Xiaowan objected.

"Why not?" Ouyang Zhexuan was a little puzzled.

"Do you know why my whereabouts were so difficult to find out?"

After hearing this, Ouyang Zhexuan shook his head, expressing his puzzlement.

Seeing this, Dong Xiaowan continued: "That's because Doctor Hu told me not to stay in hotels, nor to go to restaurants and tea houses to rest. He said that these places are the best places to find people. As long as they don't show up in these places, they are also very happy." It is difficult to know where I am. We are now in the same situation as when I fled. No, it should be worse. So we must proceed carefully. Besides, we are running out of money."

"How come?! Don't we still have a lot of bank notes..." Ouyang Zhexuan stopped talking when he said this.Because he suddenly remembered that all the bank notes had been soaked in the water before, and they could no longer be used.

Dong Xiaowan saw it, and didn't say anything more.Instead, he and Ouyang Zhexuan found a private house to live in.This folk house is dilapidated, the paper on the windows has been torn to pieces, and several wooden slats on the windows are broken.The bed in the house only has a few wooden boards, and it has been slept on very brightly, and some are gray and black. There is not even a mat on the bed, and the quilt on the bed has been washed white, and the previous color cannot be seen.The round wooden stool is also very dilapidated, and the feet of the stool are still covered with mud.The paint on the table in the house has also been peeled off, and the mottled appearance makes it obvious that it has been there for many years.Most of the plaster on the wall has fallen off, and the rest can no longer see the original whiteness.All these made Ouyang Zhexuan frown tightly.
