Su Wanning was shocked by her own words. She didn't expect to say this at this time.

It's over, her life will end here.

"Thank you." Fu Guang took the water bag and turned to leave.

After Fu Guang left, Su Wanning reached out and patted her mouth. It would be better to quit this habit in the future.

Fortunately, Fu Guang didn't care.

Then at night, Su Wanning looked at the two people not far away, both of whom were already asleep leaning against a tree.

Su Wanning yawned, wanting to sleep but not daring to.

I was so sleepy that I wanted to take a nap. Suddenly, I heard the sound of horse hooves in a half-awake state.

Su Wanning woke up immediately, opened the window a crack, looked outside, and saw a carriage passing by quickly.

It seemed that he was just passing by. He sat in the carriage, staring at the newly lit candle on the small table with his head tilted in a daze.

The sound of horse hooves that was originally far away suddenly became closer and closer. I blew out the candle and listened quietly to the sounds outside.

The carriage happened to stop next to hers, and her heart skipped a beat. If she had known earlier, she would have stopped the carriage in front of Fu Guang and the others.

He slowly moved to the front of the carriage, took out the dagger he had taken from Li Jingyu, and waited for everyone to come in.

"Aning?"

Su Wanning thought she had misheard until the sound was heard outside again.

"Aning?"

"Zhan Beiwang! Is that you?"

"Aning, it's me." Zhan Beiwang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the response. He finally found her.

Su Wanning lit the candle and Zhan Beiwang got into the carriage.

Fu Guang, who had originally sat up not far away, lay down again when he saw the candles burning in the carriage.

Su Wanning reached out and hugged him, feeling aggrieved, "Why did you come just now?"

Zhan Beiwang patted Su Wanning. When he saw the body on the road, he couldn't stop worrying. Now, holding Su Wanning, his heart finally relaxed. "We came across a fork in the road and took the wrong one. Why didn't you call me before you left? Do you know how worried I was?"

"After I packed my bags, I saw my sister and the others chatting there, with no intention of leaving. I thought you might choose to stay, so I left immediately."

Zhan Beiwang reached out and touched Su Wanning's face. "Even if they don't leave, I won't part ways with you. I said I will always be with you. There is no other outcome."

Su Wanning nodded, thinking that she had left before lunch, if she was not there, it should be before lunch, "Have you eaten?"

Just as he finished speaking, Zhan Beiwang's stomach rumbled at an inopportune time. Zhan Beiwang reached out and touched his head, "I'm really hungry."

Su Wanning smiled and took out a pile of food and placed it in front of Zhan Beiwang, "Eat quickly."

After Zhan Beiwang finished eating, Su Wanning packed up the things in the carriage and spread the bedding inside. Su Wanning, who was originally very sleepy, quickly fell asleep.

The next morning, Su Wanning was awakened by the sound of a carriage passing outside.

Zhan Beiwang had already prepared breakfast when he got off the carriage. "Wake up, wash up and eat quickly."

Su Wanning nodded, walked aside to wash up, and when she was eating, she saw that Fu Guang and the other person were gone.

After thinking about it, I told Zhan Beiwang what happened yesterday.

Zhan Beiwang felt distressed after hearing this. Fortunately, Su Wanning met a kind person. Otherwise, he would never forgive himself. "It just so happens that we have two carriages now. When we meet again, I will give them the carriage of the other carriage as a thank you."

Su Wanning thought about how the two of them were holding the horses but not riding them yesterday, and asked the question in her heart directly.

Zhan Beiwang reached out and touched Su Wanning's head. "Aning, you said they have horses but don't ride them. Is there a possibility that they don't know how to ride horses?"

Su Wanning just reacted, but when she thought that one of them had martial arts skills, that person should be the one carrying the box who couldn't ride a horse.

After the two finished their meal, they packed up their things and headed to where they wanted to go.

Not long after walking, Su Wanning saw Fu Guang and the other person.

The carriage stopped beside the two of them.

He got off the carriage and came in front of Fu Guang and the other person.

Zhan Beiwang looked at the two people with their faces covered in front of him and bowed, "Thank you both for saving my wife's life yesterday."

The man carrying the box looked at Zhan Beiwang in front of him and said, "It was a simple matter. The payment and goods were settled yesterday."

"I see you two have horses but are walking. I guess one of you didn't know how to ride. We just happen to have an extra carriage, so why not give it to you two? It's my way of repaying you for saving my wife."

The two men didn't speak. Zhan Beiwang unloaded the carriage and installed it on the horse led by Fu Guang.

"You two, we'll be leaving first." After saying that, Su Wanning and the other person got on the carriage.

The carriage gradually disappeared from sight. Fu Guang looked at the person beside him, reached out and took his hand, and took out a handkerchief from his bosom, "Qin Shen, the wound on your palm just healed. Now it's healed, but it's bleeding again."

After bandaging his wound, he looked at the carriage beside him and asked, "Would you like to ride?"

Qin Shen took off the box on his body, took out the things inside, and hung it on the wheel. "Of course I have to sit on it."

Su Wanning and the others arrived at Muchao City just at lunch time. The atmosphere in this city was obviously much better than the one they had just arrived at.

There were quite a few hawking sounds on the streets alone, selling almost everything that was available in the city.

Arriving at the restaurant, the two had a good meal. There were all the expected dishes, but the prices were even higher than those in the capital.

After asking, they found out that it would take about an hour to reach the village they wanted to go to.

Seeing that it was still early, Su Wanning decided to go and see if the village was really as beautiful as they said. If she really liked it, she would consider settling down there.

The carriage had been traveling for about half an hour when the villages became fewer and fewer and the sea could be seen in the distance.

Soon we arrived at Muxi Village, which was praised by everyone but also disliked by others.

The village is not big, with about seventy or eighty households.

To the east of the village is the mountain they had passed through before. The village is located at the end of the mountain that separates Lingnan from the outside world, and part of the mountain extends directly into the ocean.

The village is some distance away from the sea, but when Su Wanning looked at the scenery, she could already imagine how comfortable it would be to live here.

The carriage went straight into the village, and there were people chatting at the entrance.

Su Wanning jumped off the carriage and took out the peanuts and candy that she had mixed in the carriage earlier. "Hello, aunts. I'm from out of town. I'd like to ask if there's any vacant residential land in our village?"

The aunties each took a handful and ate while saying, "Miss, are you going to settle down in our village?"

Su Wanning nodded, "I do have this idea."

The aunt who spoke looked at Su Wanning and the others and said, "Our village is a famous village in Lingnan. It is suitable for newlyweds like you to live in."

Su Wanning blushed, but she still decided to explain clearly, "To be honest with you aunts, we are actually exiled from the capital."
