"Uncle Man, what should we do?" On the other side of the port, a carriage was parked in an inconspicuous place. Two men stood beside it, one of whom was Man Qin.
"That Murong Ke has a mysterious identity. I'm not sure who he is. He saved the girl several times on the ship. I don't think he will hurt you. Let's not contact the girl. Let's go to the capital first." Man Qin whispered.
"His Excellency should have set off from the Jin Kingdom." The man next to him whispered.
Man Qin nodded. "Let's go. The girl should have settled in Canghai City today. That Murong Ke … Shen Yuexuan seems to call him Sixth Master?"
"There are many people in this world who call him Sixth Master. How do we know who he is?"
"Let's wait for His Excellency to come back." Man Qin said.
Murong Ke grabbed Ye Zhen's arm and pulled her to the side of the carriage. "Do you want to go up by yourself, or do you want me to carry you up?"
"I'll go up by myself." Ye Zhen shook off his hand with a cold face and helped Hong Ying into the carriage.
Murong Ke looked at her with a smile. "Do you often refuse other people's good intentions?"
"I don't think you have any good intentions." Ye Zhen said coldly, "Forcing others to obey you, is this what you call good intentions?"
"Little girl, I am not forcing you to obey me, but saving you. Bai Ziqi will not let you go. His people will certainly catch you in Canghai City." Murong Ke whispered, "I know your maid knows martial arts, and you have a white wolf, but this white wolf …"
Murong Ke turned his head and saw Xiao Qi who had already mounted the shaft of the carriage. "I know it can protect you, but it is just a wolf after all. Wolves are not as despicable and shameless as humans."
Ye Zhen smiled faintly. "So you still know that you are despicable and shameless."
"You are really sharp-tongued." Murong Ke chuckled aloud. "Little girl, don't you think this white wolf is smarter than you? If I were malicious to you, it would have bitten me long ago. You see, it just stared at me now and did not bite me. It knows that I have saved you and that I will not hurt you, so it did not bite me. It is very intelligent. "
"Are you done?" Ye Zhen looked at him lightly. "If you are done, we can hurry."
Murong Ke looked at her helplessly. "You're really stubborn."
Ye Zhen snorted and lowered the curtain, cutting off her conversation with Murong Ke.
This little girl! Murong Ke looked at the curtain of the carriage and shook his head with a chuckle. He didn't understand why he couldn't bear to see this little girl in danger. He always felt that it would be a pity if she was captured or killed by Bai Ziqi.
"Miss, what should we do?" There were only Ye Zhen and Hong Ying in the carriage. Hong Ying lowered her voice and said, "If Uncle Man follows us, he will definitely be discovered."
"Uncle Man won't be discovered." Ye Zhen patted the back of her hand and whispered, "In fact, Murong Ke is right. Bai Ziqi will definitely not let us go. If we go by ourselves, he will definitely send someone to catch us. Instead of letting Uncle Man and the others risk their lives to protect us, it is better to let Murong Ke take us to the capital. With him here … no one will know our true identity." "That's right.
…
…
When they arrived at Canghai City, although it was still early, Shen Yuexuan, who was used to traveling by water, felt a little uncomfortable because they had just disembarked from the ship. Ye Zhen, on the other hand, felt a little tired.
They found a delicate-looking inn with an interesting name, Come Again Inn.
"This is the inn of the Shen family. Have a good rest tonight." Murong Ke stretched out his hand to help Ye Zhen get off the carriage and explained the origin of the inn to her.
Ye Zhen pretended not to see his hand and stepped on the footstool to get off the carriage. She looked up at the inn. The Shen family was really rich. Even the inn had to be built differently from others. It looked very … luxurious.
Hong Ying glanced at Ye Zhen and found that her disguised skin looked a little strange. She hurriedly took her hand and deliberately separated the distance between them. "Miss, let's hurry in."
Murong Ke smiled and retracted his hand, letting Ying Quan lead Ye Zhen to rest.
They stayed in the best room of the inn, which was specially arranged by Shen Yuexuan.
After Hong Ying expressed her thanks to Ying Quan, she immediately closed the door. "Miss, your face …" Ying Quan's eyes widened.
Ye Zhen hurriedly looked for a mirror and found that the skin on her temples was a little floating. Her heart tightened. "I haven't changed my dressing on the ship for several days. It seems that it has lost its effect."
The disguise that her father gave her could last for a month. He said that she wouldn't need to disguise when she arrived in Dongqing. This was also for the sake of her skin. He was afraid that it would affect her if she disguised herself for too long … Now, it was almost a month. If she hadn't met Bai Ziqi and the others on the river, she might have arrived at Canghai City two days ago. She could have stopped disguising herself a long time ago.
"Miss, this servant will fetch water for you to wash your face." Hong Ying whispered.
Ye Zhen nodded. Her disguise needed to be washed with clear water and medicine. Ordinary water was useless at all.
Fortunately, she had learned the disguise from her master before. She was worried that every time she changed her appearance, it would be a little different. What if Murong Ke saw through it? Ye Zhen thought about it and decided to wear the curtain hat from tomorrow onwards. In this way, she was naturally not afraid that Murong Ke would find out anything different.
Hong Ying quickly fetched water. After adding the medicine, Ye Zhen washed the disguise on her face clean, revealing a beautiful face. However, her skin looked a little red because of the disguise.
"Miss, we won't go out today. It's better to wait until tomorrow to change your appearance. Your face looks a little red." Hong Ying whispered.
Ye Zhen had loved beauty since she was a child. She was particularly concerned about her skin. Seeing her originally white jade-like cheeks lose their luster, she naturally felt distressed. She planned to use the spring water to nourish her skin and then change her appearance again.
"I didn't have a good bath on the ship. Go and ask if there is hot water. I want to take a bath." Ye Zhen said to Hong Ying. She had been worried for a few days on the river. Now that she had finally arrived in Dongqing, she must relax.
Hong Ying smiled and said, "This servant will fetch you hot water."
Ye Zhen wanted to soak in the spring water later. When she was in the capital, she would use the spring water every day to nourish her body, making her skin smoother than jade.
"Miss Lu." Murong Ke's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
Why is he here? Ye Zhen was startled. "What's the matter?"
"Master Shen is holding a banquet tonight. Would you like to have dinner with him?" Murong Ke asked in a deep voice from outside.
"I'm a little uncomfortable. I don't want to go." Ye Zhen said.
Murong Ke was silent for a moment. He just looked at her and there seemed to be nothing unusual. "What's wrong with you?"
Ye Zhen said, "I'm just a little tired."
"Then have a good rest." Murong Ke frowned, thinking that she didn't want to see him because she minded that Shen Yuexuan had handed over Li Yuniang.
