The two opened their eyes, stood up and walked out of the cave.

The person in charge of the night watch thought they were going to the bathroom, so he handed them a torch and said with concern: "Ladies, please don't go too far. If you need anything, just call me."

"Okay, don't worry, you've worked hard tonight."

"It should."

Su Chengnan took the torch, took Su Linhua's hand and walked into the dark mountains. After they walked for a distance, she called the secret guards from the treetops down.

"Otsuji!"

"Miss."

Ever since she said last time not to call the head of the family in public, they all changed their tune and followed the rest of the Su family in calling him that.

"After we go out tomorrow, are the carriages and other things ready?"

"Uh, not yet."

"That's all right. Here's the money. Pick two smart ones and go to different towns to buy carriages and luggage. The carriages can't be empty. Merchants traveling north need to bring some things that are in short supply there."

"Miss, I can't do this."

"What?" Chen Nan was stunned.

Whether in modern times or ancient times, she hadn't met anyone who dared to quit like this in a long time. Interesting.

Yi Er is not tall, only about 1.7 meters, with a thin build, dark face, and an unforgettable black mole under his left eye.

She once asked Jiayi how he could be a secret guard with such an obvious feature. Jiayi then told her that the mole was pasted on so that people would only remember his mole and ignore his real appearance.

"I am not good at speaking and do not understand business. I am afraid that if I fail to do this, it will cause great trouble for the young lady."

"Oh? Then who do you think is more suitable to go?"

"C3!"

Chen Nan and Lin Hua looked at each other, neither of them could remember who Bingsan was.

"His family was once wealthy, having run a restaurant and a caravan. He's more suitable for this than I am. Please give Bingsan a chance, Miss."

"Go and fetch him."

"Yes! Miss, please wait a moment."

Chen Nan did not ask Su Weimin about the specific background of these secret guards. She thought that since he dared to entrust his wife and children to them for protection, they must be people of noble character and trustworthy.

However, judging from the situation just now, she still needs to have a good talk with Su Weimin. She should have used such talents a long time ago!

Yi Er came back quickly with his men.

This C3 looks different from all of them.

He has a fair complexion and a scholarly air. If he were to wear a white robe and a folding fan, he would surely be a magnet for the girls.

"Are you Bingsan?"

"Yes, Miss."

"Where are you from? What businesses have you been involved in?"

"Jincheng is close to the sea. I made my fortune from sea goods. Later, I opened a restaurant in Tangcheng and formed a caravan to trade goods north and south. The farthest I went was Ningguta and Fucheng."

She recalled the geography of Dayong in her mind. The Ningguta here is even farther away than the Ningguta in modern times, and Fucheng is basically the coastal Fuzhou location.

The distance between the south and the north is quite far!

It sounds like this Bingsan is indeed an experienced person.

"Miss, we are going to Ningguta. Right?"

"Correct."

"It's cold over there, they wear thick clothes, their skin is rough, they love to drink, and there's not much food to eat. If possible, we can bring some goods along the way."

"Ningguta is too far away. We merchants should sell as we go. We should buy some goods suitable for selling in the next city, and repeat this process."

"Miss, the profit might not be that high. The distance is short, so the scarcity is very low, so the price will naturally be..."

Lin Hua found him quite interesting and couldn't help asking, "You have a very active mind, why did you become a secret guard?"

"My family fell into poverty, and then there was war in Tang City, so I joined the army."

“Oh, it’s not easy.”

"It is our honor to be able to work for the Su Mansion now! If it weren't for the Marquis, all of us would have died long ago."

"The Su family will never forget your loyalty. When we make a comeback in the future, you will definitely have a share in the glory of the Su family."

"Thank you, Master!"

"Alright, take this money and quickly take your men to a nearby town to buy carriages and luggage. Don't miss out on anything a caravan needs."

"Don't worry, Miss. I know what to do."

"Also, you have to help me with one more thing."

"Please give your orders, young lady."

"See if there are any merchants coming from the capital. Go and ask them about the latest happenings in the capital."

"Yes!"

Bingsan flew away with a whoosh.

"You go too!"

"I?"

Yi Er was stunned, not knowing where to go.

We girls need to go to the bathroom, so have your men retreat a mile! The cave is only a few steps away, and you're all following so closely.

"Yes, Miss."

"Let's go, let's all retreat."

A few whooshing sounds were heard, and only the chirping of birds remained in the woods.

Without saying a word, the two men immediately took out a small shovel and an empty box from the space, dug two boxes of soil with great effort, and sent them back to the space.

Then he threw two more stones into the pit, covered it up a little, and went back arm in arm.

But just as the two of them reached the cave, a blurry figure flew over the treetops.

This person followed silently all the way, and only left now...

……

The next day, at dawn.

In the Ningyuan Prince's Mansion, all the red silk wedding characters in the yard were removed.

Lu Chaofeng was sitting in the study, listening to the man's report.

"Sir, they will leave the mountain today."

"Ah."

"Miss Su ordered people to prepare carriages, apparently intending to disguise themselves as a merchant caravan, and also sent people to inquire about the situation in the capital."

"Oh?"

Lu Chaofeng couldn't help but curl his lips.

He was really curious about what kind of expression Su Chengnan would have when she found out that she had become the Crown Prince of Ningyuan's consort.

Lu Chaofeng thought of how she was standing high in the sky, trembling with fear, yet still holding on with all her might, absolutely unwilling to beg for mercy. He inexplicably felt a surge of anticipation...

"Which way are they going?"

"It should be from Fengcheng to Luocheng. Who knows, they might even take a water route later?"

"Okay! You go back first, and remember to leave marks along the way."

"Yes! Prince!"

Wu Ming quickly left the study, turned around, flew onto the roof, and returned the same way.

Lu Chaofeng leaned back on a high chair, his slender fingers tapping rhythmically on the table. His wedding dress, reflected in the candlelight, made his phoenix eyes even more obscure...

"Somebody come!"

"My Lord, please give me your orders."

A servant holding a sword pushed the door open and stood by the door with his hands hanging down.

"We'll change our route after leaving the city. We'll reach Fengcheng before dark today."

"Ah?" The servant was stunned.

"My Lord, our entourage is quite long this time... I'm afraid we can't move so fast."

"Hmm?" Lu Chaofeng raised his eyelids and glanced at him.

The servant shuddered and the blood in his body froze instantly.

"Yes, we will definitely make it."

"We'll set off in one stick of incense!"

"Yes!"
