Xia Qingshu's gaze moved away from Sujin's ears without leaving a trace, and she looked out of the window, her eyes resting vaguely among the common people passing by the city gate.A memory that was so small that people could almost ignore it emerged.

Turning her face sideways, facing a direction that neither of them could see, Xia Qingshu narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Have you been staying in Nanjian County these days?" Ji Qianyao smiled, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, in a good mood.They used to be masters and servants, and when they met again after parting, naturally they had more to say.

While listening, Xia Qingshu searched for the whereabouts of Liu Yan and Shen Anyi at the city gate, with her usual expression.

"Yes, I agree with your thoughts. This Nanjian County is a fortress connecting the north and the south. If you want to go north, you must pass through this road. Instead of searching aimlessly, I should rush here and wait. I arrived three days ago, and I have been guarding near the city gate."

Ji Qianyao caught something, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "Have you ever seen Liuyan and the others?"

"Liuyan?" Sujin was lost in memory, "I didn't know that she was walking with you, and I didn't pay much attention... But I watched everyone passing by carefully to make sure that Liuyan was in the three I haven't passed through this city gate during the day."

"They think they left here three days ago." Ji Qianyao's joyful expression faded, his brows drooped, and he looked at Xia Qingshu beside him worriedly.

Xia Qingshu pursed her lips and sighed, "Hurrying day and night, I still can't catch up with them..."

Ji Qianyao: "What should we do now, let's go north immediately?"

Xia Qingshu glanced at the sky and thought about their current situation, before saying after a long while: "It's getting dark, we've been driving for a long time, and we're exhausted physically and mentally, why don't we rest here for a night in Nanjian County? Do you like it?" how?"

Ji Qianyao rubbed his eyebrows and tired eyes, nodded and said: "Alright, just stay here and rest overnight."

Both agreed, and Su Jin naturally had no objection.

"Stay here, I'll go to the waiter to book two rooms." Xia Qingshu stood up, about to walk out the door.

Su Jin stopped her: "You have worked hard all the way, so leave the errands to me."

Xia Qingshu thanked her with a smile, handed over the matter to her, and then sat back to her original seat.As soon as she sat down on the chair, Xia Qingshu yawned heavily, tears welling from the corners of her eyes.

Yawning is contagious. Before Xia Qingshu closed his mouth, Ji Qianyao also yawned.For the past few days, the two of them have been rushing on the road without any rest.Now suddenly relaxed, I feel tired all over.

After yawning, Xia Qingshu's head fell directly on the arm placed on the table.Ji Qianyao reached out and rubbed her head, and asked with a smile, "Are you so sleepy?" There was no one else in the room, and her voice was soft and soft, full of unresolved pampering.

Xia Qingshu's eyes narrowed as the broken hair swept, and his head slowly nodded.

Ji Qianyao's voice became softer again: "After Sujin has fixed the room, we will go to rest and not go out in the afternoon. Now that Sujin is watching by your side, you don't have to be so vigilant about the people around you, just take a good rest .”

When the word Su Jin was mentioned, Xia Qingshu's heart skipped a beat, but she deliberately hid those strange emotions, so Ji Qianyao couldn't detect them.

"Okay." After moving, and resting his head on Ji Qianyao's arm, Xia Qingshu replied with a normal expression.

After a stick of incense, Su Jin came back, followed by the waiter.

"Guest officers, the room is upstairs, please follow me." The waiter was as enthusiastic as ever, and led the three of them to the upstairs room.

"I just cleaned it half an hour ago. It's clean. The three guests can stay at ease." Xiao Er led the three of them around the room. "This one is a little bigger, and the other one is a little smaller, right next door, right next to each other."

After walking around, the introduction was almost done. Seeing Xia Qingshu yawned twice, Xiaoer stopped the conversation in time: "The three guest officers are resting. If you need to call me, I'll be downstairs."

Although it was for the vulgar money, such a meticulous and considerate behavior made people never get tired of it. With a smile on his face, Ji Qianyao politely thanked the waiter in the store.

"You guys have had a hard time traveling, so rest. I'm going around the inn to check some things." Su Jin put her hand on the hilt of the silver sword at her waist, and slowly moved her foot towards the door.

"Okay, you have to be careful yourself." Ji Qianyao instructed.

"Be careful." Xia Qingshu also instructed.

Su Jin backed away and closed the door behind her.

After arranging the luggage she was carrying, Xia Qingshu sat on the edge of the bed and began to remove her shoes and socks.

"Sleeping in the mountains for half a month, I can finally sleep comfortably now." Ji Qianyao straightened the bedding with a brisk tone.

Xia Qingshu knew that she was in a good mood at the moment because of Su Jin's return.Originally in the deep palace, Su Jin was her right-hand man, she trusted Su Jin's skills and character very much.

If she hadn't accidentally discovered the mole on Su Jin's ear, she must be happy at this moment.If things develop like this, they will not even know how they died.

Cold all over.

Xia Qingshu's heart was heavy, and so was his head.Her tiredness is really tired, the battle is coming, she has to take the time to rest, adjust her state and formulate a strategy to deal with the enemy to reduce damage...

What is the reason for this person to pretend to be her?Want their lives?Or something in their hands?That woman is fake, and that little girl must have something wrong... Ms. Cai and Ms. Yang, did something happen to them?

Thinking of going deeper, Xia Qingshu felt something was wrong, and cold sweat rolled down from the corner of her forehead.

Lying on the bed with half-closed eyes, with complicated thoughts in his head, a gust of cool wind blew in front of him, and a veil wiped away the few beads of sweat that were about to roll off.

"Is it hot?" Ji Qianyao's concerned words and gentle voice were sent along with the cool breeze.

Xia Qingshu rubbed against her palm, suppressing the turbulent waves surging up in her heart, and adjusted her breathing.

She didn't want to be seen by the people in front of her.

It is safer for her to know this matter alone than both of them.

"It's not hot anymore." Xia Qingshu curled the corners of her lips, showing a natural smile, and closed her slightly opened eyes again.

The summer heat is coming, the weather is hot, Ji Qianyao's body is cold, and he doesn't sweat a lot, Xia Qingshu is just the opposite of her, sweating all over his forehead when he turns over.

"Sleep, I'll fan you for a while."

Xia Qingshu let go of her thoughts and didn't respond.The cool wind blows her face every once in a while, erasing those complicated and complicated troubles.

Before she knew it, her head was getting lighter and she fell asleep.In her sleep, she had a peaceful face, but there was a trace of uneasiness between her brows.

Looking at her sleeping face, Ji Qianyao fanned her for a while, then slowly stopped his fanning hand, gently placed the round fan on the bedside, and closed his eyes.

She closed her eyes, but did not fall asleep, she focused on her ears.She could hear footsteps coming and going outside.

***

After sleeping for two hours, Xia Qingshu woke up with a splitting headache.She turned over and pressed her fingers to the acupuncture points on her head to relieve the pain and dizziness.

The sky through the window paper was very dark, Xia Qingshu narrowed his eyes and took a look, but he didn't know what time it was.

"What time is it now? How long have I been asleep?" She asked hoarsely.

But no one responded to her.

Suddenly his eyes widened, Xia Qingshu's movements froze, and then he thrust his hand towards his side suddenly, flustered and anxious.But it was empty there, and there was no warmth on the pillow.

Oops!

With a surge of blood, Xia Qingshu glanced at her side, turned over from the bed at once, grabbed the rusty sword, and wanted to rush out the door.

She thought that there were many people in the daytime, even if that person had other plans, she would not choose to do it at this time, but the fact is not what she expected.

The enemy is treacherous and cunning, she should not speculate on their minds.If something happened to Ji Qianyao, she would never forgive herself.Infinite remorse welled up in Xia Qingshu's heart. Her eyes were red, her back teeth were clenched, and she was about to break through the door, when a familiar voice sounded outside.

Her movements froze in place, and the arm that was waving in anger stopped in the air, and it was too late to take it back.She listened to the movement outside the door and held her breath.

"Su Jin, have you bought the horse?"

"Old man Wang, who sells horses, has no good horses in his stable. He said that a new batch will come tomorrow. I will go to buy them from him before I leave tomorrow."

"Okay. My car has prepared food and drink for the journey."

Xia Qingshu's hanging heart didn't fall until he heard and confirmed Ji Qianyao's voice.

Exhale gently, fortunately, all the bad things haven't happened yet...

The sound of their footsteps and conversation getting closer and closer, she had to pretend nothing happened.So, she quietly and slowly returned to the bed, put away the rusty sword, and lay down in the quilt again.

"You have also patrolled for an afternoon. You have worked hard. Go back to your room and rest. If I guess correctly, the enemy should wait for us to fall into the net in the secret place. Nanjian County is safe, so you don't have to be so vigilant. Rest for a while, Recharge your batteries."

"it is good."

Walking slowly to the door of the room, the two said goodbye, and Ji Qianyao pushed open the door and walked in.Su Jin took a few steps forward, and pushed open the door of the rear wing.

Xia Qingshu was still lying on the bed, her body turned sideways, facing inward, with the quilt on her waist, Ji Qianyao behind her couldn't see the expression on her face.

Ji Qianyao glanced at the pair of shoes and socks under the bed, and found that their position had changed. A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she walked slowly to the bed.

Xia Qingshu's body lying on her side also turned around following her footsteps.

Ji Qianyao's smile deepened.

Xia Qingshu opened her pretendingly bewildered eyes, but she met a pair of smiling eyes. Those eyes were bright and bright, and they silently told her something.

It turns out... she found out too.
