The weather was too hot. If he could find a water source, he could even wash himself in the water, but if he really couldn't find one, he'd better first boil some water to wash himself.
His calmness and calmness actually made Chi Huan admire him a little bit, and he also became a bit more respectful towards him.
As for the rest of the people, some of them were also angry with Xue Qianyun. Seeing that no one else had anything to say, they gradually stopped looking at him. Xue Buyun finally let out a sigh of relief.
Lying awake at night in his tent, thinking about what he had seen and heard in the day, his heart always churning with something unknown, he turned over, sat up, opened the tent and went outside.
Ru Yi sat cross-legged on a large rug at her feet. A simple wooden table was propped up in front of her, upon which she was writing a letter in the firelight. This was what he had requested, one letter at a time.
"Come over and sit." When she saw him, she smiled and waved to him, pulling a cushion from the side and placing it on her left.
After a moment's hesitation, Xue Xianyun walked over to her and sat down cross-legged, imitating her. Ru Yi added a few words to the letter before placing the pen down. Fifteen took it and sealed it, handing it to a messenger at the side.
"Why are you out? Can't you sleep?" She rubbed her neck and asked after staying in the same position for a long time.
Xue Buyun didn't answer, but said in a low voice, "Let me help you pinch it."
When Jun Ruye, who was sitting at the side, heard these words, he couldn't help but glance at Xue Chaoyun and then take a glance at Number Fifteen.
Xue Chaoyun lowered his eyes and ignored him, but Fifteen did not dare to ignore him. He shivered slightly and hurriedly said, "Master, shall I help you massage it?"
Ru Yi said indifferently, "There's no need. You've been busy for the past half day. Quickly go and rest." He turned and leaned closer to Xue Ji Yun, pointing to the left side of his neck. "It's not very comfortable here."
Fifteen wanted to cry but had no tears. The commander's gaze was like a knife, but her master's will was not something she could go against!
Furthermore, even if Xue Qianyun was here to seek favor with her, he still couldn't outdo her. It was just a massage of the neck, not a bath for the master … But it was obvious that even Commander Jun wasn't satisfied with all of her reasons … He was releasing cold air again.
Xue Chaoyun's hand strength was not small, and the two of them had nothing to say to each other. After a quarter of an hour, Jun Ruye saw Ru Yi and yawned, then stood up and said, "Master should rest."
Ru Yi nodded, then turned to Xue Qianyun and said, "You should go to bed as well. Tomorrow morning, we'll travel to Zangzhou, and then we'll be able to rest in the inn!"
Xue Ning Yun felt that Ru Yi's tone was a lot gentler than when she was talking to He Xian and the rest. His eyes flashed and he nodded slightly. He didn't want to be like the others and call her master, so he didn't say anything.
It had always been her habit to take care of him when she was young. Now that they met, although he was taller than her, she still wanted to tell him out of habit.
"Let's eat outside now. The food is simple and the place to sleep is a little simple. We have to take care of the situation. There are some rules that should be put aside for now. We can settle down in Ganzhou."
Her voice wasn't as cold as it had been during the day, like relief or explanation. When Xue Chaoyun had finally confirmed that she treated him differently from the others, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his eyes, but he didn't know what to say.
He wasn't an expert at changing the topic. Even after racking his brains, he could only come up with one sentence, "Hurry up and rest."
When Jun Ruye heard him call Ru Yi "you" twice, he stopped looking at him and instead started to stare at Ru Yi. Seeing that she didn't seem to care at all, he was suspicious of her, but outside, as long as Xue Moyan had no ill will towards Ru Yi, he could suppress his suspicions and personally open the tent for her.
Although Jun Ruye was a vulgar disciple of a buddhist sect, he wasn't a merciful and soft-hearted person. Moreover, Emperor Qinghe had personally called out to him when they arrived. "You must protect your daughter and protect her from harm."
A dreamless night passed. In the morning, he had ordered Thirteen to pay more attention to Xue Da Yun, and then he heard Ru Yi say to everyone, "When we're outside, let's take it easy. In the future, everyone can just call me Young Noble. Hmm, it's no good wishing that I'm an outsider. I'm Young Noble Su, right?"
Ru Yi got into the carriage and fifteen followed her into the carriage. In the carriage, he first helped Ru Yi change into a brocade robe, dressing up as the son of a rich family. He himself changed into the clothes of a woman, but her face was dark and she disguised herself as a little girl.
The corner of Ru Yi's lips curled up. She seemed to have thought of something as she pressed down the corner of her eyes, suppressing her smile.
The sun was setting in the west, and the city of Suzhou was bustling with noise and excitement. Ru Yi leaned against the wall of the carriage, and after a while, he heard someone say, "Aiya, look at that man. He's so handsome!"
Someone else said from the side, "That person is too old. Look at that person, his face is so pale …"
Ru Yi covered her mouth and snickered, while 15 also grinned. The master and servant looked at each other as if they shared a secret, and Ru Yi also had the mood to gossip as she whispered, "Tell me, who are they talking about being old? And who are you pointing at to make your face pale? "
Outside of the carriage, Jun Ruye's hearing was sharp and clear. When he heard Ru Yi's question, his expression couldn't help but turn solemn, while his eyes became even colder.
Xue Xianyun didn't even notice that he was being guided. He only came back to his senses when he found that everyone around him had backed away to the side, leaving him alone.
People on the street were already gossiping about whether he was engaged or not …
Ru Yi trembled in laughter inside the car, who would have thought that when she was young and weak, when she was only twelve years old, she would suddenly grow up to be a beautiful young man.
She whispered to Fifteen, "Do you know how old your commander is this year?"
Fifteen covered his mouth and shook his head. All I know is that our commander isn't human.
Ru Yi didn't force the matter. After she exited the palace, her curiosity seemed to have been piqued.
The reason for this trip was not because of the war, but because she wanted to see the Jiang Country in close proximity. As a result, she had relaxed a little, but that was all she could say.
Someone had reserved the entire inn for them.
Although their line of work wasn't very conspicuous, they were all extremely spirited. Everyone had a horse, this wasn't simple, so it attracted many people to watch, "Look at these servants, they are all so energetic, maybe that carriage is even more handsome …"
"What do you know? The uglier one is, the more they love beauties. If they really are beauties, then how beautiful would they be!" to be able to surpass the number one beauty of our Luan Prefecture? "
When the fifteenth ear heard this, it laughed out loud and hurriedly said, "Yes, your servant has been impolite."
Ru Yi's carriage rushed to the inn's backyard, and the others dismounted from their horses at the entrance.
Fifteen alighted first and looked around. He lifted the curtain and said, "Young Master, this inn is too simple and crude."
Their inn was not only one of the best in the city, it was also of the middle or high quality and was definitely above four stars. However, the guest was very rich, so it would not be good to offend him if the shopkeeper didn't beat him up.
"It's better than living in the forest." Ru Yi didn't mind getting off the carriage. She tilted her head and smiled at Fifteen. Coincidentally, the waiter was right next to him. Just as he was raising his head, his eyes were blinded by her smile …
It wasn't until 15 years old when the waiter led Ru Yi upstairs that he suddenly came to his senses. He raised his leg and was about to chase up, "Guest, gongzi, this little servant will bring you to the best room!"
He reached out a hand. "No need."
His voice was so cold that the waiter unconsciously took two steps back, "Yes, yes, this little one understands." Jun Ruye was satisfied with Li Feiyu's tactful actions. He tossed a piece of broken silver to Li Feiyu before heading upstairs.
Ru Yi finished bathing. She sat by the window with her long hair hanging down. Fifteen people helped to wring her hair with white cotton.
The sun went down another two minutes, and there was a sudden hubbub on the street as the crowd began to move in one direction.
Ru Yi looked at the crowd for a bit and realized that most of them were excited and did not seem to have done anything bad. She thought for a while and said, "Go and ask."
When he heard this, he quickly left. Not long later, he returned and replied with a relaxed expression, "It's a rich family from the Suzhou City that married their daughter. They invited a troupe to sing for three days in a row. Yesterday …" Her words were drowned out by the hustle and bustle downstairs.
Ru Yi looked down and heard someone say, "Hurry, hurry. Today, Liu Yuntang is singing 'Little Xiang Mountain'. If you're late, you won't hear it …"
Ru Yi smiled slightly. This time, the people following her were more nervous than the last. She pointed her finger and said, "Pass to me, the guards will be divided into two groups. One will be on duty, while the other will be on vacation tonight.
Fifteen went out, and in a short while, Jun Ruye and the other guard, Zhou Zhi, went to seek an audience.
Ru Yi recognized him, he was Zhou Xuan's brother who was separated by the roof. However, his ability didn't lose to Zhou Xuan's, because Zhou Xuan was considered to be one of them, so he had given Zhou Zhi face. Right now, other than the secret guards outside, Zhou Zhi was the leader of the group.
"Please forgive me young master, but young master's safety is more important than anything else. This subordinate really cannot leave without permission."
Ru Yi remained silent as she looked at Zhou Zhi kneeling in front of her. After a long time, she said, "This is unforgivable. If you feel that you can't take on this responsibility, then go back and replace him with someone else."
Zhou Zhi trembled as he silently lay on the ground.
Jun Ruye suddenly said, "Subordinate has already decided. Tonight, I will let Fifteen and them go together to see the night scenery of the Ganzhou Region." This meant that the original dark guard troops were on vacation today, so the guards should be on duty.
When Zhou Zhi heard this, he suddenly raised his head, wanting to say something, but he forcibly held it back.
Seeing that he had not turned the corner yet, Ru Yi could not help but feel that he was a stubborn person, but she did not have the obligation to guide him. She waved her hand and said, "Go on."
Zhou Zhi absentmindedly left the room and looked up at Jun Ruye. Jun Ruye's expression was as cold as ever, but he still said, "You go down and arrange a duty. I'll guard the young master."
Zhou Zhi heaved a sigh of relief. Even without the vigorous guards, it was still a relief to have a leader of the guards stay. It was like going out to beg for a meal. He had wanted a plate of Red Braised Lion's Head, but he ended up getting a piece of fat instead.
