When the people outside heard the commotion inside, they knocked twice and asked, "Mistress, are you awake?"

"I'm awake. Wait a moment." Xiao Qing Ran responded without thinking. She gave the little girl a kiss on the cheek and then rubbed her forehead with her head, coaxing the little ancestor: "It's alright, you're hungry right? Mother will bring you to eat. "

He didn't know why he suddenly had that sort of dream. Could it be that he had really been too free these past few days? She shouldn't have thought about it.

Xiao Qing Qing shook her head and tossed aside those messy thoughts in her head. She hugged the door as she left. Outside, Mo Lin was waiting, "Master, we've already prepared food for you. We can start on our journey once we've eaten."

"Right." Xiao Qingran held the child and walked out. Suddenly, she thought of the two people from last night. She casually asked: "Where is the owner of this shop?"

Mo Lin paused, and then said in a deep voice, "Although they have been opening a black shop for so many years, they have not harmed anyone. Wang Mang taught them a lesson is fine, but there is something else that I want you to know, Master."

It was rare for Xiao Qing to see him in such a state. She lowered her eyes and asked: "What's wrong?"

"Mistress, we asked that woman yesterday. She said that she knew that we would be coming and that someone told her to wait here for us." Mo Lin frowned, "Mistress, I've already confirmed this morning that this woman is indeed the owner of this shop. She hasn't been placed here by others for over 10 years, but since there's someone provoking her, it seems like we've been targeted a long time ago."

Xiao Qing Ran paused and sneered, "This is really interesting."

She had gone to her room last night after being targeted by others. It seemed like she had come for him.

Mo Lin frowned, "Master, do you have any candidates?"

Since his master had just left the capital, the person behind the scenes must have been planning something for a day or two. But now that he had such a deep grudge with his master, he really couldn't recall who it was.

Xiao Qing shook her head, "I don't know either. But since he's been preparing to attack us the moment we leave the capital, our journey to Biron won't be peaceful."

But who was this person? There was no one on her blacklist who could plan so meticulously and know where she was coming from.

Mo Lin said gravely, "Just in case. I sent a pigeon to Wolf Claw earlier this morning and had them change their direction to follow us. The safety of master and little master is paramount."

Xiao Qing ran down with the child in her arms, but suddenly remembered something else: "Did that woman say anything else? "What did the person who directed her look like?"

"He's just a man. There's nothing special about him, and his looks are quite ordinary as well. What's weird is that the man didn't say that he would kill his master. He only said that he would teach his master after making him faint." Mo Lin furrowed his brows, puzzled by this.

Could it be that someone had a grudge against their master, which was why they came to this big of a circle to get their master? That was impossible. Although he believed that his master definitely had the ability to do so, the problem was that there weren't many men who could do that. Even so, there weren't many who could count by his master's side at the moment.

She was more concerned about how the person behind the scenes understood her whereabouts so well. She had only been away for a day or two, yet they were already able to arrange a secret operation for her. It seemed that not only had the man been staring at her for a day or two, but more importantly, she hadn't even noticed him at all.

As the two of them walked downstairs, Wang Mang had already set up the dishes.

"Master, you're awake?" How was your rest last night? "

"Not bad. It would be better if no one disturbed me." Xiao Qing Qing took a seat with her arms wrapped around her.

"Master, don't worry. Those two people have already been dealt with. This will never happen again." Wang Mang pushed a bowl of congee from the table. "This is for little master."

"Sorry for the trouble." Xiao Qingran waved her hand and was about to invite the two to eat, but she suddenly felt a chill behind her back and subconsciously swung the chopsticks in her hand backwards.

The chopsticks flew out of his hand like throwing daggers. They stabbed three inches into the door frame, causing a buzzing sound.

"Who?" Wang Mang was also able to react. He quickly turned his head and saw a grey clothed man flash past the door. That speed and reaction was definitely what the Lady Boss had instructed him to do.

"Halt!" Wang Mang dashed out. However, that person's footsteps were extremely quick. Wang Mang didn't even manage to grab onto that person, not even allowing him to clearly see that man's appearance.

"Mistress, it seems like we shouldn't stay here any longer." Mo Lin came over with his wheelchair and frowned as he looked outside, "Let's leave as soon as possible and try our best to reach Biron as soon as possible."

Xiao Qing withdrew her brows and unconsciously tightened her grip on her hand. For some reason, she suddenly thought of that dream from last night, "Mhm."

That person didn't want his life yet was monitoring his movements closely. There was a high chance that it was related to the thousand cold. She just hoped that that person didn't go overboard. Their days had just calmed down, so she definitely wouldn't allow anyone to disrupt this peace!

The carriage had already been replaced with a new one, the tables, chairs and even the small toys for Xiao Qingran to bring along. She was afraid that this child would be tired from following her on the journey, but she was also a little overly obedient, basically starting to sleep as soon as she got on the carriage. Until she got off the carriage, other than waking up two or three times in the middle of the journey and crying out her hunger, most of the time, it was very quiet.

This made Xiao Qing Qing suspect that this little girl was in a car sickness.

Mo Lin had calculated the time and route along the way. He would definitely be able to find a place to stay before dusk. He also had two or three times to get off the car and walk around. He was pretty relaxed.

It was only on the fifth day that Xiao Qing woke up from her sleep. She thought that she was hungry, but she didn't eat the things that she had been given.

Xiao Qingqing had no way to carry the child off the carriage and planned to walk around below.

"Mistress, there is a maple tree over there. Although there are no maple leaves this season, the scenery isn't bad. Do you want to bring little mistress over there to take a look?" Mo Lin came over in his wheelchair, "Wang Mang put the carriage right here. Master can go walk around, but don't go too far away from the carriage."

They had just left the capital when they met with such an incident. They didn't know who was behind the scenes, and since the enemy was lurking in the shadows, they naturally had to be careful.

Xiao Qing Ran glanced at the maple tree not far away. The child in her embrace continued to cry more and more without any intention of stopping. She frowned slightly: "No need, just sit here for a while. Help me get the milk bottle."

"Alright." Mo Lin turned around and went to the carriage to get something.

At this moment, Xiao Qing was sitting on the ground holding the child in her arms, looking at the little girl who was crying and lying incessantly.

This was truly strange. Previously, when the little guy cried, she would hug him in this manner and coax him. Normally, she would pat him a few times. Today, what was going on?

"Wuu … wuu …" "Brew ~" The sound of crying seemed to be mixed with some words.

Xiao Qing was stunned. She looked at the child in her arms patting her on the back with some disbelief. "Little girl, did you just call me mother?"

Although it was a bit blurry, it seemed like it was really calling out …

"Woo woo …" Her pale arms and legs kept flapping as if they wanted to break away from Xiao Qing's embrace. Her abnormal reaction made Xiao Qing retract her brows.

Something didn't seem right.

She unconsciously stood up and quickly turned her head around. Her vigilant eyes stared at the maple trees on the other side of the forest. Her left hand held the indistinct cry and her right hand was tightly holding a stone that had just risen from the ground.

On the other side, Wang Mang who had just tied up the carriage and turned around to see Xiao Qing Ran's strange actions, suddenly warned in his heart, "Not good."

Mo Lin also sensed that something was amiss, but before the two of them had even passed it, a figure jumped out from the maple tree opposite. Mo Lin also sensed that something was amiss, but before the two of them had even passed it, a figure jumped out from the maple tree opposite.

She held the child tightly in her arms and held him against her chest. She didn't care about the child's crying and said coldly, "Since you're already here, what are you waiting for?"

Seven or eight people immediately flew out from the forest behind him. The man sneered and took a step forward, "Worthy of being known as Han Wangfei is indeed worthy of her reputation, to be able to be this alert. I underestimated you, I believe Wangfei didn't have a good time last night, right?"

Xiao Qingran's gaze closely sized up the person in front of her as a dark light suddenly flashed across her face. She then laughed coldly: "You're right! It really isn't fun. This greeting gift is really too light. It's nothing new."

"Oh?" The man's tone was a little out of tune, as if deliberately suppressing his voice. "Does that mean I'll have to prepare another generous gift for Princess Hua-Yang the next time?"

"Whatever gift you are prepared for will naturally be yours. It's just that I have to give you something when we meet for the first time." Xiao Qingyi pursed her lips, the stone in her left hand between her two fingers, and then she threw it out with a 'whoosh'.

In the morning, the man had eaten this trick from her at the inn. However, that time, he had run really fast. Xiao Qing Qing naturally did not aim and this time, the two of them were not able to escape from the man for a short period of time.

He took a step back with his left leg and quickly drew the sword at his waist to block. After a crisp "pa" sound, the stone hit the man's sword and it actually broke.

A cold and mocking voice came from the other side: "I'm so sorry. I originally wanted to slap your ugly face, but I didn't think that I would actually destroy your sword."
