After I disguised myself as a man, I became everyone's white moonlight

Chu Xi did not choose the water route at the Beijing dock because she wanted to give others the illusion that she could ride a horse to take the official route.

In fact, after she entered the next city, several people changed their clothes. They all put on very low-key coarse linen clothes and had rough beards on their chins.

Chu Xi had never dressed like this before. Even if those people wanted to send people to hunt her down, they could probably only track her down based on her portrait or their usual impression of her.

She changed into a coarse linen dress that she never wore before, put on a beard, and deliberately pretended that her right eye was blind by covering it with a black cloth.

As for the others, they also had ideas based on Chu Xi's outfit and started dressing up. In fact, how they dressed up was not very important, as they probably wanted to focus mainly on Chu Xi, but it was still better to dress up.

In order to cover up their tracks, they did not choose a very good ship, but instead chose a more ordinary ship that could carry goods and passengers. Chu Xi and his companions also lived separately on the ship.

Chu Xi and Chu Er were arranged in the same room. There was a public bathroom on the boat, but Chu Xi did not plan to take a shower on the boat. After all, there were so many people and eyes, and it was full of danger even with Chu Er guarding it.

They were going down from Huzhou, where there were several small roads and official roads that could lead to the next city.

It was Chu Xi’s first time to ride on an ancient ship. This ship was particularly ordinary and shaky, which was really uncomfortable.

It takes one day and one night to get to Huzhou, which means they will arrive at the Huzhou ferry at this time tomorrow.

Chu Er knew that since the situation in the court had become increasingly tense, the princes had been pressing the young master step by step. If the young master did not make plans early and fell into their hands, there would be only one outcome, which was death.

"Young Master, how do you think the people under the eldest prince will arrange you when we arrive in Xi'an this time?" Chu Er knew that there must be a reason for the young master to go to Xi'an.

I just don't understand why the young master only allowed the prime minister to fight for a position like a centurion, and he didn't even have a military rank of a colonel. His Majesty's decree is so infuriating.

"No matter how they arrange it, they still have to be on guard in Beijing. If I go to Xi'an, at least I can keep track of what's going on there."

Chu Xi went to Xi'an this time just to see it with his own eyes. If anything really happened, at least he could be on the scene at the first moment.

Chu Er knew that he couldn't keep up with the young master's thoughts, so he didn't ask further, and the topic ended just like that.

The boat was quite quiet, just an ordinary cargo ship. Apparently, they had just left Beijing not long before they chose to enter the ferry and pick a boat at random, which would definitely catch others off guard.

"Will there be ambushes on this ship?" Chu Er had been following Chu Xi and had experienced many life and death situations in just a few months. He knew that the Seventh Prince, the Eighth Prince, and the Fifth Prince of Xichu all wanted to kill the Young Master.

"I don't know." Chu Xi couldn't give an accurate answer, "But if someone really got on the boat with us, I believe they will attack us soon, so there's no need to rush."

The few people Zhou Yichen arranged for him all had good martial arts skills. One of them was the illegitimate son of Feng Cheng's cousin. The Feng family valued legitimate children, and this illegitimate son lost his mother when he was young. Because of his background, he was bullied and neglected in the backyard.

Even his biological father wanted to kill him. Under such circumstances, this illegitimate son was not allowed to take the imperial examination. He was also rejected by his stepmother and stepbrother, and his legs were broken.

He was almost thrown into a brothel, intending to completely ruin his reputation. It was Zhou Yichen and Chu Xi who came across this incident on the road and saved each other.

From then on, Feng Cheng's nephew began to follow Zhou Yichen and his brother wholeheartedly, and even learned martial arts under Zhou Yichen's arrangement in private. His martial arts skills were definitely much better than those of his biological brother.

Chu Xi had also fought with him before. Although she couldn't beat him, compared to Tang Yuhuai, his lightness skills were among the best. Compared to Tang Yuhuai, perhaps his martial arts foundation was a little worse.

He is also a rare young talent.

As for the remaining four, two are Zhou Yichen's best secret guards with outstanding martial arts, and the other two are children of aristocratic families, but their fame is not as good as that of the Feng family.

Chu Xi knew that their main target was himself, and they had all been dressed up. Even if they suspected someone and got on the boat, they probably wouldn't be able to find out who the real Chu Qibai was for a while.

If you want to catch fish, you have to be patient.

The boat was shaking, so Chu Xi opened the window of the room a little to make it easier for her to see the scenery outside.

The water surface is constantly rippling, and in the distance there are towering mountains, lush forests and bamboos, and the scenery is pleasant.

If there are no other accidents that need to be prevented on the way, water transportation may not be a bad choice. You don’t need to sleep in the open air and you can reach Xi’an directly.

Even people who are familiar with "Chu Qibai" probably wouldn't dare to recognize her in this outfit, let alone the killers who could only identify her by her portrait.

There were no assassins targeting them on the ship, and they spent a peaceful night until they got off the ship in Huzhou.

Several people immediately changed their clothes. They were going to pass through the city gate, where there would be routine patrols by soldiers, especially in the area from Huzhou to Lingnan.

There are a lot of pirates here, and if they take the water route, it will probably cause a lot of trouble.

But at the same time, this area is the most strictly checked in order to prevent those pirates from sneaking into the city.

Chu Xi took off her eye mask and put on brocade clothes, but her skin color was deliberately made darker by using makeup.

He seemed to be from a prominent family, but his appearance was not satisfactory, and there was a large black mole on the right side of his cheek.

Disguise was very convenient in ancient times. There was no facial recognition, let alone profile pictures. The soldiers patrolling the city gates only saw the household registration certificate, proving that Chu Xi was from the capital. What was his name and what was his background?

The other people left the city separately from Chu Xi, and only Chu Er stayed with Chu Xi the whole time.

Chu Er is Chu Xi's follower and confidant. If he still pretends not to know him, then his disguise would be too much.

As soon as Chu Xi and her companions left the city, the soldier who had checked her household registration certificate quickly ran to the city wall in a hurry.

Chu Xi got on the horse, looked back at the scene calmly, and then said to Chu Er beside him, "Let's go."

"Young Master, what is this?" Chu Er noticed the other party's actions and frowned.

Chu Xi tightened the reins without any surprise and rode quickly towards the official road. "These state capitals must have people under the Yao family, the Eighth Prince, and the Seventh Prince. As long as they arrange people to watch the city gates and check the household registration certificates of the past, we will not be able to escape this."

Even if they used other people's household registration to escape this hurdle, Chu Xi and his friends still had a hard time finding peace in Xi'an.

Instead of doing that, it would be better to lure the snake out of its hole, catch them off guard, and hurt them at the same time.

Let them never dare to care about their own lives again.
