After hearing this, Zhou Qingyun paused turning the pages of the book and looked at the curtain in silence. He felt that he could see the people from the Zhang family outside through the curtain. In the end, he gently shook his head.

Now they are walking very fast, even if they want to reach Qiong Island, it will only take about half a month. Why bother walking? They even have to face various pursuits from time to time. For the Zhang family who are in exile, it may be a very heavy burden. It is better for them to just go to Qiong Island incognito.

As long as he doesn't bring trouble to his maternal family, that's enough. He is no longer Zhou Qingyun who just left the palace and was well protected. He understands that his life is no longer in his own hands. He must live a better life for the Zhang family and his mother. He must also study hard, practice calligraphy and martial arts, because the current situation is like this. Princes from all over the country have risen up in rebellion, and he must also build his own strength.

If he is a hollow fool, even if he has the ability to establish an uprising team, he will not be able to lead it. You must know that for any march or war, you must have money to realize your ideals and ambitions. Under this premise, he must be well-read and be a sensible person.

Wang Shiyu curled her lips, it was so boring. If only he chose to reunite with the Zhang family, it would be great. He wouldn't have to bring this person who was holding him back, and they could even walk faster. And he wouldn't have to continue sleeping in the carriage with this person. She had to hold it in for five days, and now they had to use the bucket on the carriage to go to the toilet, and it always smelled terrible.

As a result, both Wang Shiyu and Zhou Qingyun deliberately did not drink more water and even ate very little, just to reduce the number of times they went to the toilet. She even felt that she had lost some weight in the past two days.

In fact, the two of them really wanted to drink water. It was uncomfortable to be stuck in the carriage, and they couldn't drink much water.

Forget it, since he doesn't want to go, she can't force him. Wang Shiyu straightened her light blue narrow-sleeved dress with dark patterns, shook off the snack crumbs on it, and continued to read the book. In fact, she didn't understand many words. Wang Shiyu guessed at these words and basically got them all wrong.

When it was time to rest at night, they did not find a post station or inn, but they went directly to a village. The people in this village had hardly been displaced and seemed to be living well here. No one in each household looked like they had ever been hungry, so this village should be a very wealthy village.

Master Xie seemed to have old acquaintance with the village chief, so after communicating with him, their carriage stopped directly at a farmhouse. It looked like no one had lived there for a long time, but the houses were all made of blue bricks and tiles. Even if no one lived there, it was not too dirty, as if someone came to clean it regularly.

After entering, the old man, his son and daughters-in-law began to clean the room, while their two children remained in the carriage and did not get off. For the safety of the carriage, Wang Shiyu even asked the old man to seal the inside of their carriage with wooden boards before entering the village.

The main reason was that we would be in contact with people, and if someone got impatient and opened the curtain first, it would be difficult to explain when they saw them. So just to be on the safe side, we decided to nail it shut and open it after we left the village. The old man and Master Xie also felt that this was a good idea, so they nailed it shut.

Even if someone deliberately approached the carriage, they could only see the wooden boards sealing the outside of the carriage but not the specific situation inside, which could better conceal the whereabouts of Zhou Qingyun and Wang Shiyu.

In fact, when Master Xie said he wanted to go into the village, Wang Shiyu was reluctant, because even if Master Xie knew a lot of people, it would not be safer than going with strangers, because all those who overturned their cars were caused by acquaintances.

In this world, the people you should be most wary of are acquaintances, but Master Xie is extremely confident in his own network of contacts, and Wang Shiyu can't say much to Master Xie. She can only nail a layer of wooden boards as a precaution.
