Traveling back and forth from ancient times to the present, the prince pursues love in the modern ti

Beichuan is over a thousand kilometers from the capital, and if nothing unexpected happens, it will take about a month to get there. Add to that various unexpected situations along the way, and two months is a good amount.

Chu Moyuan was not in a hurry to take Xia Youan with him, so Yucheng took her for a walk and let her have a good rest.

It’s early spring here, but it’s still winter in Beichuan. I hope it will be getting warmer there by the time I get there!

Fortunately, Xia Youan was able to sleep, waking up and falling asleep along the way, so he didn't suffer too much. Chu Moyuan wanted to take advantage of the fact that they had just left the capital and Shen Xiang was still afraid to take action, so he could travel a little further overnight.

So the first day passed in a hurry. When Xia Youan woke up in the morning, he learned that they had not rested all night and cast a look of pity on the soldiers.

It’s not easy for workers. Even if their boss asks them to work overtime all night, they can’t resist!

In the morning, I made some porridge and soaked it with some hardened bread that I had baked in advance. I took a short break and fed the horses some feed and water.

After a quick rest, Chu Moyuan ordered his men to continue their journey, aiming to reach Xin'an Town, the first town they passed by on this journey and the one closest to the capital, by the afternoon.

At this point, they were exhausted, but they had to grit their teeth and persevere. Chu Moyuan hoped to protect as many of these 1,000 soldiers as possible, as Beichuan was short of men!

Chu Moyuan did not intend to let these people accompany him all the way to Beichuan.

Let them form teams of ten people, and whenever there is a large-scale assassination attempt, split up into one or two teams.

Finally meet in Beichuan!

He was sure that Prime Minister Shen would not dare to deploy too many assassins in Xin'an Town. If a large-scale robbery and killing took place in Xin'an Town, it would certainly alert the emperor, and then the loss would outweigh the gain!

After rushing for a long time, they finally arrived at Xin'an Town at 1 pm. The soldiers set up camp outside the city to rest.

Du You went into the city first to arrange the inn and meals!

Chu Moyuan wanted to help Xia Youan get out of the car, but just as he handed over his hand, Xia Youan jumped down.

So energetic!

Xia Youan stretched his arms, kicked his legs, and twisted his butt. Qingying felt that their Miss Xia didn't care about her face at all in front of the prince.

"Hey, finally I can stretch my body! I've been sitting in here for so long, I feel like I'm almost stiff!"

"We're at the city gate now. Let's not take the carriage. Let's walk over so you can stretch your legs."

They did not identify themselves and lined up to show their way into the city.

The entrance to the city is a wide bluestone road, with no end in sight.

There are shops on both sides of the road. All the shops are made of wood, retaining the original color of the wood and uniform green tiles.

There are signs in front of the shops, with different shapes and colors, which add a strong commercial atmosphere to the street.

Maybe it’s because it’s just past lunchtime, so there are not many people on the streets.

"Do you want to go shopping?" Chu Moyuan asked when he saw that Xia Youan seemed very interested in the shop.

“I won’t buy it. It’s not easy to carry it on a long journey!

Is the accommodation far away? If not, we can walk there.

“It’s not far, the entire Xin’an Town is not big.

It is just close to the capital, and many people who travel long distances will choose to rest here.

With more people coming and going, this place became prosperous.

Just a few steps ahead and you’ll be there.”

The inn is on this main street, not far from the city gate.

It was already past lunchtime, but there were still quite a few people eating on the first floor of the inn, most of them were traveling merchants.

When Du You saw his master coming, he took a few people directly to the room on the second floor.

"Master, there might be danger at night. Qingying's martial arts might not be able to deal with those professional killers, so I have to ask you to share a room with Miss Xia and protect her safety!"

Qingying watched Du You talking nonsense seriously, but she didn't dare to expose him, for fear that the prince would send her back!

Chu Moyuan glanced at Du You.

Hey! Good job! I'll double your salary.

Du You and the other three were all prepared for a good fight tonight, but it turned out to be surprisingly quiet, with no waves throughout the night.

Little did they know that in order to buy time for Chu Moyuan, the emperor delayed Prime Minister Shen and prevented him from leaving the palace to make arrangements, while Concubine Shen thought that her father had already made arrangements.

But it can't be delayed for a few days, so I hope they can travel more in the next two days.

After breakfast and replenishing supplies, the group set out on a new day's journey.

Xin'an Town is nearly two days' journey from the next city, Luoshui City.

According to the plan, they will split their troops into two groups when they arrive at Luoshui City.

Chu Moyuan and his party led a team to take the water route, so that they could bypass Yecheng and go directly to Mindu City.

The other team traveled by land and would arrive two or three days later than Chu Moyuan and his team.

"Ten kilometers ahead, you will reach Cuifeng Valley.

We stopped to take a short rest and tried to pass Cuifeng Valley before dark.

"Alright, rest where you are!" Du You instructed the palace soldiers.

The soldiers were so tired that they sat down on the spot and quickly drank some water. They wanted to recover their strength as soon as possible.

Xia Youan jumped off the carriage and stretched his muscles.

The shadow of Cuifeng Valley can be vaguely seen in front.

"Qingying, I want to go to the bathroom, please accompany me!"

It was completely flat here, with no shelter anywhere except a patch of weeds in the distance. It was clear from where one stood, making it difficult to even solve a problem.

Oh! If only I were a man!

"Qingying, take An An to the bushes nearby and use the carriage to block them. Don't go too far. I will keep an eye on you." Chu Moyuan instructed Qingying.

"Girl, I'll take you there!"

Xia Youan wanted Qingying to stay a little further away from her. It was hard to pee with someone standing right next to her!

"Miss, just pretend that I don't exist. During this special period, you just have to make do with me." Qingying persuaded.

Xia Youan had no choice but to overcome the difficulties on his own. He walked a few steps inside and parted the grass, and a blood-stained face came into his eyes.

"Ahhh~"

Qingying turned around quickly when she heard the sound. Xia Youan was standing there screaming, his legs unable to move!

Chu Moyuan, Du Zuo, Du You and others immediately flew over when they heard Xia Youan's scream.

They found a man covered in blood lying in the grass in front of Xia Youan, and they didn't know whether he was dead or alive. Everyone relaxed when they saw that Xia Youan was not in trouble.

Chu Moyuan quickly picked up Xia Youan and carried him away from the bushes. Du You stepped forward and checked his carotid artery, finding a faint pulse.

"Master, the person is not dead, he just lost consciousness due to excessive bleeding." Du You came to report to Chu Moyuan after checking the condition of the injured.

Whether to save or not is decided by the master.

Chu Moyuan lowered his head and looked at the frightened Xia Youan in his arms, worried that she would be left with a psychological trauma.

"Save him if you can!" Chu Moyuan had no expression on his face and spoke in a light tone.

"Are you scared? The person is still alive, just injured. It's okay!"

"I...I...I'm fine. It was just the first time I saw it, and it happened so suddenly, so I got scared. I'll be fine later."

When Xia Youan heard that the person was not dead, he was somewhat less frightened.

She has lived for 19 years and she has never seen a dead person!
