Song Yao was sitting on the bed holding little Youyou, and asked Su Zhen to feed rice soup to the little guy.

Rice soup is naturally sweet, so little ones love it very much.

Song Yao held little Youyou in her arms, a gentle smile on her face. "Mom, look how cute they are, their little mouths chattering. They are so adorable."

Su Zhen smiled and said, "Children this age are all very cute."

Suddenly, the door of the room was pushed open from the outside. Song Yao looked up and saw Song Qing walking in.

When Song Qing closed the door and walked towards the bed, Song Yao asked, "Song Qing, why are you here? Didn't you go buy spices with my brother and the others?"

Song Qing walked to the bedside. His expression was not so good. This expression made Song Yao's heart jump. She hurriedly asked, "Did something happen to Big Brother and the others?"

E Yu was also here, holding Xiao Sui Sui, so when she heard Song Yao's words, her heart suddenly trembled, and her eyes showed obvious nervousness and fear, "Song Qing, what happened to Zizhou?"

"Oh, stop guessing, it wasn't Brother Zizhou." Song Qing said, "Ayao, we saw Xiao Chi when we went out to buy spices!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's face darkened, with confusion between their brows.

Song Yao said with a serious face: "Why is he here?"

Song Qing shook his head. "I don't know. Brother Zizhou and I turned around immediately after seeing him. They probably didn't see us. So, I came back right away to tell you!"

E Yu asked, "Could he have come here to look for A Yao?"

Song Yao didn't know it before, but now, she has guessed that Xiao Chi married Xu Lingyi simply to anger the original owner.

This means that the person Xiao Chi loves is the original owner, but the things between the original owner and Shen Yibai caused Xiao Chi to misunderstand, so he married Xu Lingyi and bullied her!

If Xiao Chi came here really for the original owner, then Song Yao would never forgive him no matter what he did!

Su Zhen thought for a moment, then looked at Song Yao, "Ayao, why don't you ask Song Qing to call the prince over? He's still the Prince of Heng. If you two can reconcile, you won't have to suffer with us!"

Song Yao's brows darkened as she looked at Su Zhen. "If I go and live a good life, what about you? You are penniless. In this world, you will starve to death in a few days. This is the lightest of all. In the worst case, you might even be captured, killed and eaten. Even so, you still want me to continue to follow King Heng?"

Song Yao didn't know what Su Zhen was thinking. The original owner had suffered such injustice from Xiao Chi, and he even almost killed her, but she actually let her continue to live with King Heng!

If she really wanted to do good for Song Yao, she wouldn't say such a thing.

Upon hearing this, Su Zhen's expression froze obviously.

Although she had a lot of words in her heart, she couldn't say a single word now.

Song Yao looked at Song Qing, "Did he really not see you?"

Song Qing nodded, "Probably not, because when we saw him, we immediately turned around and left. However, he has already come here, so it's only a matter of time before he finds us."

Song Yao definitely didn't want to see Xiao Chi again. After thinking deeply for a while, she looked at Song Qing and said, "Don't go out. When big brother comes back later, ask him to come to my room."

"Okay!" Song Qing said, "What should we do now?"

Song Yao said, "Let's talk about it after Big Brother comes."

The map is with Song Zizhou, and she needs to ask Song Zizhou to choose a new route, a route that will not encounter Xiao Chi.

However, Xu Lingyi, Song Jiaqi and the others were still following them, like little followers, all the time. In this case, it was not easy for them to leave.

Of course, it would be easy for Song Yao to escape if she wanted to.

"Okay, I understand." After Song Qing said that, he put the seasoning packet he brought in the house, then left the house and came downstairs to the inn.

He stood at the door of the inn, looked left and right, and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that there was no trace of Xiao Chi.

He folded his hands and leaned against the door.

Unexpectedly, his third aunt would let Song Yao return to Xiao Chi!

Isn't this nonsense?

But Xiao Chi was not good to her, hurt her and bullied her. If it were him, he would never let Song Yao go back.

I really don't know what she thinks.

Not long after, Song Zizhou and Song Mingxuan came back.

Seeing Song Qing standing at the door, Song Zizhou asked, "What are you doing here?"

Song Qing explained: "Ayao asked me to come here to wait for you. She said that if you come back, she will let you go to her room. She has something to tell you."

"Okay!" Song Zizhou and Song Mingxuan each held two large bags of spices in their hands.

They entered the inn and came to Song Yao's room.

Seeing Song Zizhou coming, Song Yao sat up from the bed and said, "Brother, you are back. Song Qing said that you saw Xiao Chi in Liangzhou City?"

Song Zizhou nodded, "Yes, what did you ask me to do?"

After Song Qing closed the door, he came to the bed and stood beside Song Zizhou.

Song Yao said, "I don't want to see Xiao Chi. Don't you have the map? Choose a new route. It would be best if you don't see him again."

"Okay, let me take a look at the map." After putting down the spices, Song Zizhou took out a map from his lapel.

The map was originally made of paper, but now, it has become a piece of cloth.

That’s right, Song Zizhou copied all the contents on the previous map onto this cloth.

He often looks at the map so that it won't be destroyed.

After looking at the map for a while, Song Zizhou came to Song Yao and said helplessly, "Ayao, there is only one way to Chang'an. This road requires passing through Shuangxian Town first. After passing here, there is only one way to Chang'an."

Song Yao frowned, "If that's the case, then aren't we going to meet Xiao Chi?"

Song Zizhou pursed his lips and nodded, "Well, yes."

E Yu glanced at Song Yao, then at Song Zizhou, "Can't we find a new way out? What if Xiao Chi comes here to forcibly take A Yao away? We can't resist him. If he really wants to take her away, we will all be secondary, and A Yao will have to suffer."

Song Zizhou said, "We're not familiar with these places and have no idea how to get to Shuangxian Town and Chang'an. Besides, the roads we've been through are all through the woods and bumpy mountain roads. Even walking on our own is difficult. If we create a new route, not only will it be impossible to walk, it would also be a huge waste of time and dangerous."

Song Mingxuan said: "We mainly use carriages. Carriages can only travel, and cannot create a road on their own."

Song He sighed, "Doesn't that mean we're really going to meet King Heng? He's such a jerk, I don't want to see him."
