"Yi An? Tsk, that kid runs faster than anyone else." Han Qianfeng said disdainfully, "If it weren't for the Yi family, would he be able to reach this position today?"

Han Liuyi glanced at him and realized that he didn't know that Yi An was wanted. She was too lazy to tell him and just asked, "Did Yi An have a favorite place to go before, or...did he have any hiding place?"

When Han Qianfeng heard her ask this, he put down his wine glass and said, "He, he is from Tongqiu County. He should like to go there the most because his grandfather is an old friend of my master and I have met him before."

Speaking of this, he chuckled twice, "Master has been gone for several years. I was the one who killed him that night."

Han Liuyi immediately tightened her grip on the sword at her waist and looked at him with deep hatred in her eyes.

Her grandfather was also killed by this beast.

Han Qianfeng had been drinking and was already drunk, which was why he spoke so recklessly.

Or maybe, he thought from the bottom of his heart that his daughter would not do anything to him. After all, she had been obedient and sensible since she was young, and she would not go west if she was told to go east. How could she be so cruel as to do something to him?

Han Liuyi dug her fingernails deep into her flesh, helping her calm down a little.

"So Yi'an is very likely in Tongqiu County?" Han Liuyi asked.

Han Qianfeng lay on the stone table and hummed twice indistinctly.

Han Liuyi estimated the time. Tongqiu County was quite far from Chaomu City. It would take about two or three days to get there. However, she didn't know where Yi An was, so she had to look for him.

She caught a glimpse of the carrier pigeons jumping on the roof and immediately thought of a solution.

Previously, they relied on pigeons to send messages. They didn’t know each other’s location, but the pigeons could communicate with each other. When the time came, she could just follow the carrier pigeons and find Yi’an.

Moreover, after finding him, she couldn't take action, firstly because she couldn't beat him, and secondly because the revenge she believed in was not just about taking his life.

She had already thought of a plan.

Han Liuyi looked at Han Qianfeng again, stood up and said, "Dad, you stay here now." After that, she turned and left.

Han Qianfeng raised his head and could only vaguely see a slender light yellow figure. He shouted loudly: "Liu Yi! Liu Yi! Where are you going?"

Han Liuyi ignored him and without even a moment's hesitation, she jumped on her horse and left.

-

Inside the carriage, Xia Nian and Meng Yin were looking at a map.

Meng Yin pointed at the words Tongqiu County and said, "There are still three days to go. It takes too much time to take the official road. No wonder Yiqing wants to go early. He can go much faster on horseback alone."

Xia Nian nodded and said, "Once we find Taozi, we need to learn how to ride a horse."

"Well, I issued an order to evacuate some people a few days ago. I hope Yi An will relax his vigilance." Meng Yin said.

Xia Nian was about to put away the map when he suddenly saw the city closest to Tongqiu County, which was also one of the top ten cities, Chaomu City.

This city is the only one they have not been to.

She touched Meng Yin's shoulder and signaled her with her eyes. Meng Yin understood what she meant and nodded slightly.

With Xun Yan here, it was inconvenient for them to talk, but fortunately, they could understand each other with just a glance.

Things have been happening one after another these days, and they haven't opened a book for a long time. If Taozi is really in Tongqiu County, should they go to Chaomu City after rescuing her?

If we really go to Chaomu City, they will leave. What should we do then?

Or maybe there's a bug and they never go to Chaomu City, so does that mean they will never leave?

Or maybe they won't leave at all.

Meng Yin saw her consideration and said softly, "Let's discuss it after we find Taozi."

Xia Nian said, "Okay." She looked at Xun Yan again, her eyes concerned, "Miss Xun, if you feel unwell, you must tell me."

Xun Yan waved her hands and said, "I'm fine. Thank you, Miss Xia."

Seeing that she was a little shy, Xu Zheng casually put her arm around her shoulders and said with a smile, "Don't be polite with us, we are friends if we know each other."

Xunyan nodded repeatedly.

Xia Nian looked at her with her eyebrows lowered, and for a moment, she actually mistook her for Tao Zi. She lowered her head and rubbed her eyebrows, looking at her hands folded in front of her.

Xunyan is really like Taozi, she has to admit that because of this, they feel more pity for Xunyan, but they don't treat her as Taozi. The two are completely different individuals, it's just that human emotions are at work, and they love her for everything in her.

Meng Yin sighed, "Xun Yan, you are really kind. I was just wondering if girls of your type are all kind."

Xun Yan was a little embarrassed and said, "No, it's just that I felt very guilty towards Miss Tao, and after I woke up I felt that I had to come and tell you."

Xu Zheng laughed and said, "You are all kind little girls, so I will be the bad guy, hahaha!"

"A Zheng, don't forget that I'm a bad guy too." Meng Yin winked at her slyly, then retracted her expression when she looked at Xun Yan, saying, "Xun Yan, don't blame yourself. It's all the fault of that bastard Yi An. Neither you nor Tao Zi did anything wrong."

"Yinyin is right. You and Taozi are just too kind and like to blame yourself for everything." Xu Zheng said.

Xia Nian raised his head and said, "People with a people-pleasing personality will blame themselves first when encountering problems. This is not your fault, it is caused by the environment you grew up in."

Xun Yan was stunned. She didn't expect that they would say these things because of her words. As far as she could remember, no one had ever said these to her.

Xun Yan hesitated and said, "People-pleasing personality... Although I don't quite understand what it means, I feel that I am..."

Xia Nian smiled slightly and said, "I don't blame you. This needs to be changed slowly."

The carriage stopped, Qiao Yi pulled aside the curtain and stuck his head out, saying, "Ladies, we've arrived at the inn."

Meng Yin glanced at the hat on her head and said with a smile, "Qiao Yi, this really suits you."

Qiao Yi smiled and walked to the front to help them down. Fu Nian jumped out from behind and said to Meng Yin, "Miss Meng, look at mine. It's the same style as Qiao Yi's."

Meng Yin took Qiao Yi's hand, jumped down, exclaimed, and said, "It's true."

Qiao Yi glanced at him expressionlessly, but the tips of her ears turned red.

After several people discussed, they dressed up as vendors and deliberately changed their attire. I don't know who arranged it, but the hats inside were in pairs, and there were always two hats of the same style and color.

Meng Yin had sharp eyes and immediately noticed Qiao Yi’s red ears. He thought: Qiao Yi is going to be conquered!

She pulled Qiao Yi over and whispered in her ear.

Fu Nian didn't understand what was going on, so he scratched his cheek and smiled as he reached out to Xia Nian behind him.

Just as Xia Nian was about to take over, Xia Hou Yu suddenly appeared and grabbed Fu Nian by the scruff of the neck and threw him aside.

Fu Nian straightened his hat and muttered, "The Pavilion Master is so stingy. Isn't it just touching Madam's hand? Isn't this what I should do..."

After he finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of Qiao Yi being pulled by Meng Yin. For some reason, Qiao Yi, who was usually calm and composed, just glanced at him and her face turned a little red.

Fu Nian put away the thoughts of criticizing Xiahou Yu, and moved to Qiao Yi's side again, secretly eavesdropping on their conversation.

This was a large carriage, and the body of the carriage was at a certain height from the ground. Xu Zheng didn't care, she just jumped down, turned around and picked up Xun Yan.

Before Xunyan could react, she was dragged into the inn.

As soon as she entered, Zhong Ziyi came to ask her: "Miss Xunyan, how are you?"

Xunyan whispered, "Very good, nothing is wrong."

She silently glanced at Zhong Ziyi's outfit and couldn't help but smile softly, with dimples faintly visible at the corners of her mouth.

In the past, Zhong Ziyi always wore a blue shirt, looking elegant and easy-going. Now, wearing clothes like a peddler, he even had a more scholarly air.

Noticing her smile, Zhong Ziyi asked, "What's wrong? Am I... weird?"

Xun Yan shook her head and said, "No, no, it's just..." She lowered her head and spoke in a much softer voice, "Very cute."
