In the carriage, Xiao Jiwei was wrapped in a thick cloak and holding a hand stove. He coughed from time to time and his face looked pale. It was said that he had been doused in water by Wen Xun'er the day before yesterday and contracted the cold.

Deserve it!

It's best to stay ill for a long time and die immediately!

Wen Xun'er cursed a few words in his mind, not wanting to see his sickly appearance, so he simply opened the curtain and looked out the window.

It was time to catch up early. People were coming and going on the long street. There were a lot of people selling steamed buns and noodles for breakfast. Through the steaming smoke, Wen Xun'er felt hungry.

I left home early in the morning and only brought some pastries, but those things could only fill my stomach. To be honest, I still need these staple foods!

"Why don't you stop the car and go buy some hot buns? Everyone hasn't eaten in the morning!" Qiuyue suggested, perhaps seeing the desire in Wen Xun'er's eyes.

Wen Xun'er was eager and quickly told him: "I want meat buns!"

Qiuyue took the money and went down, but happened to see a group of soldiers on horseback approaching. They got off their horses near the bun shop, and seemed to want to buy breakfast.

"General Shen!" Qiuyue looked at the man on horseback in surprise. Shen Wei heard the voice and lowered his eyes. He hesitated for a moment before recognizing Qiuyue, "Miss Qiuyue, why are you here?"

Qiuyue pointed to the carriage: "Today my young lady was ordered to go out of the city to recover from illness."

Shen Wei looked inside the carriage, took stock, and then drove forward.

Wen Xun'er had already seen Shen Wei, but he didn't expect to meet him as soon as he went out. What a coincidence!

She waved to greet Shen Wei: "Commander Shen, are you on patrol?"

Shen Wei responded, and vaguely saw a man sitting inside through the opened curtain, and his words became more polite: "Miss Wen is leaving the city?"

Wen Xun'er nodded: "The plague is not a minor disease after all. It's okay for the Queen to let me go out of the city to avoid it."

Shen Wei glanced around her veiled face and said hesitantly: "It's not very safe outside the city these days. I wonder where Miss Wen is going on this trip?"

“Buddha Temple.”

"Buddha Temple?" Shen Wei condensed and frowned, "Recently, the plague has been rampant outside the city. There have been more refugees. Temples everywhere are overcrowded. The Buddha Temple is located in a remote place. I'm afraid it's not peaceful. Does Miss Wen have other places to go?"

Is there really a plague outside the city?

"Don't worry, General Shen. My father has sent people to visit the Buddha Temple in advance. It is located in a remote place and is not among the refugee camps. Few people go there on weekdays. It is safe!"

Hearing this, Shen Wei nodded: "It's not safe outside the city after all. I'll arrange for two people to escort Miss Wen."

This time, he did not personally escort him, which must be to avoid suspicion.

"Thank you!"

Qiuyue had already bought the buns and came back. When she saw Shen Wei's back, she couldn't help but said: "General Shen is really loyal to his duties. He even sends someone to escort the young lady when she leaves the city. She must be afraid that the bandits will happen again!"

"Aren't all those bandits already in jail? There are still bandits anywhere! Yinunu, it seems that General Shen is just caring about the young lady!" Chunyue answered.

Wen Xun'er said "hmm" twice and looked at her: "What nonsense are you talking about? There are people from the Imperial Guard Camp outside!"

Chun Yue quickly stuck out her tongue, not daring to say any more.

There was a sound of laughter coming from the corner. Because it came from between the breaths, the sound was very small, but the carriage was also very small, so Wen Xun'er heard it easily.

She stared at Xiao Jiwei with cold eyes: "Why are you laughing?"

Xiao Jiwei ate the steamed stuffed buns slowly: "I laugh at the fact that young lady's peach blossoms are not as prosperous as usual. In just a few months, the Ninth Prince would rather marry a disfigured Ninth Prince's concubine than break off the engagement, and later the Imperial Guards The commander was very courteous, but in the end, he took advantage of me and broke the hearts of many young people."

"Haha," Wen Xun'er sneered, suddenly picked up the buns on the low table and stuffed them into his mouth, "Shut up when you shouldn't talk! You can't stop your mouth even if you eat!"
