However, things did not go as planned, and Qin Qiong got lost again.

"What the hell is this compass?"

She threw her compass in anger. The direction it indicated was too mysterious. Why was it almost the same no matter how she turned it?

Looking at the endless yellow sand, she realized how lucky she was before. It turned out that living in the desert was so difficult. She finally understood what the so-called remote countryside was like.

There is no need to talk about the hardships along the way, but fortunately, after Qin Qiong walked for a long time and with great effort, she finally met a caravan, who were also going to Shaguo City.

Qin Qiong relied on those horses to get a chance to travel with the caravan, and the caravan agreed to let her go with them.

This time Qin Qiong did not draw his sword. The reason was very simple. These people were really from a caravan. Seeing that she was just a woman, but she was carrying so many horses, they thought something was wrong with her and did not want to take her with them at first.

If she hadn't tried to talk it out with others, they might have really not taken her. Fortunately, her acting skills were good, and she cried sincerely twice, which finally made those people who were also trying to make a living outside believe her.

No matter what, this is just a woman. Qin Qiong finally found the right path and let her live a good life sleeping in the carriage.

In this way, Qin Qiong followed the caravan for another five or six days, and they finally arrived at her first destination, Shaguo City, now the capital of King Hu.

At this time, in the largest inn in the city, the owner and the waiter were busy...

All the inns in Shaguo City have canteens downstairs, and merchants who come and go will stay here for a few days and have a good meal. Therefore, this kind of place is naturally a good place to post notices.

Now, there are several notices for the capture of wanted criminals posted on the outer wall of the inn.

There was another large caravan outside, and the waiter ran out to greet the guests. The merchants also greeted each other and entered the inn. At this time, the waiter saw a woman getting off the last carriage.

She looked very tired, almost stumbling as she walked down the stairs. It was obvious that she had been through a lot of hardships, but the waiter still went to greet her immediately, because he was very good at judging people.

Although the woman's head was covered with layers of scarves, one could still see that she had a slender figure and a graceful posture. More importantly, the clothes she wore were obviously not ordinary.

The waiter ran to the woman and was about to help her, but he saw that the woman suddenly stopped. She was staring at the portrait on the notice on the wall.

"Girl, you must be tired from walking, don't you want to go eat?" the waiter asked carefully.

The girl slowly turned to look at him, then pointed at the notice on the wall and asked, "Who is this person?"

"This? This is the wanted criminal by King Hu."

"I know. I'm asking, who is he?"

"Yes……"

The waiter looked around carefully, then lowered his voice and whispered, "The remnant of the previous dynasty is the former prince. Customers, please don't ask. This is none of our business."

But the woman suddenly laughed: "Remnants of the previous dynasty?"

She suddenly burst into giggle.

"Oh my god, it's him. There's a reward if we catch him. Haha... This is so funny."

The waiter was stunned for a moment: "Customer, have you seen this person?"

"Maybe you have seen it before. I didn't expect this guy to be worth so much money."

Although the State of Yu has now been razed to the ground, no matter how you look at it, it has only been a few years since this country was destroyed. Everyone still considers themselves to be the people of the State of Yu. When the waiter suddenly heard someone say such things, he felt a little indignant.

So the waiter let go and said, "Girl, if you want to eat, come in. If you don't want to eat, I won't serve you now."

The woman smiled and said, "Eat, of course I should eat." After that, she walked in with a smile.

Qin Qiong did not sit with the merchants who came with them. The reason was very simple. They did not want to take her with them. They agreed that after entering Shaguo City, she would pay for the three horses, and they would not be responsible for anything else.

Qin Qiong now only had a horse besides her broken carriage.

However, she didn't care. After eating a big meal, when she was about to go upstairs to her room to sleep for a while, she saw a caravan passing by outside.

She ate in the living room on the first floor, where she could see the traffic on the road. At this moment, a caravan was walking slowly in front of the store.

Qin Qiong narrowed her eyes...she smiled.

It’s so good! Such beautiful Chinese characters, why can’t you write them properly? You have to change the strokes, so much so that she almost couldn’t recognize it. What a shame.

Today, Mr. Ji's legs have been feeling a little uncomfortable again. Yazi has secretly come to see him twice and told him some things about King Hu here. Now, he is a little worried.

It now seems that many nobles in the country have surrendered, and the surrounding small states that were once dependent on the king no longer want to step forward.

Not only did people fear the cruelty of King Hu, but also because King Hu married a princess of the royal family, many nobles and doctors also submitted to King Hu. This made him feel a little discouraged.

How to do?

Although the old king did act recklessly in his later years, the nobles were too disloyal. Now, he was in a dilemma as to how he should tell the prince.

And, should he go back? While he was thinking about this, one of his servants came in through the curtain.

"Master, Master, there is a bit of trouble"

"what happened?"

"A woman came outside and said she was looking for Ji Yonghong."

Mr. Ji was stunned: "What? What did you say? Who are you looking for?"

"She said, look for Ji Yonghong"

The old man stood up all of a sudden. How could it be possible! This name was specially given to the prince after he arrived in Yingzhou. No one here knew it. How could anyone know this name?

unless……

His head suddenly started to buzz. Could it be that something happened over there? !

He almost stumbled out, and only when he reached the front hall did he calm down a little. He couldn't panic. What was coming would come eventually, and now that it had come, he had nothing to be afraid of.

At this time, a slender-looking woman was standing in the hallway. When she saw the old man coming out, she slowly turned around and looked over.

Old Master Ji looked at the woman and thought she was very beautiful, but he didn't know her.

"May I know who you are, young lady?" he asked carefully.

"Me? My last name is Qin."

"Is that so? Then, Miss Qin, you are..."

"We're just gonna stand here and talk?"

"Oh, yes, please come in and talk, girl."

Old Master Ji sneered in his heart, really, he was really scared. Now he saw that this woman was just a human being. Although the clothes she wore were of this style, her every move did not seem like someone from King Hu's side.

Qin Qiong nodded to him and walked into the inner room. As soon as he entered the inner room, he found a place to sit down.
