Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 1411

They didn't pass by Xumeng Town's posthouse when they came to the temporary imperial palace.

This was just a small town, and the posthouse was very small with only one house in the yard. At present, only the posthouse manager and his family lived in the house. The manager was a man in his forties, who had one son and two daughters.

At the moment, the posthouse manager was walking in front of Yun Shang and the other with a lamp in his hand. He looked reverent and respectful, "This place is relatively simple and humble. There is only one guest room. I'm afraid you two have to make do with it for the night. It seems that it's going to rain at night. Please remember to close the window.

You two just had a long journey. You must be tired hungry. I have asked my wife to cook two bowls of noodles for you. They will be served soon."

Gengsan answered in a low voice, "All right." Then they followed the manager and went into the only guest room.

Just as the manager had mentioned, the guest room was very simple and humble. One could see everything at a glance.

There was only one bed, one table and two chairs in it. Maybe it's for the sake of the officials ' reading books or dealing with their official affairs on the way, there was a bookshelf and a desk, on which there were a few books.

"The hot water will be ready soon. Later, I will bring it to you," said the manager.

"Okay, thank you."

Noticing that the two masters didn't talk much, the manager knew that they didn't want him to stay here any longer. He quickly said, "Then I won't disturb you any longer. I'll leave now."

The manager lit up the lights in the room and then left with the lantern. He even remembered to close the door for them when he left.

Yun Shang and Gengsan listened attentively to the manager's receding steps. They then checked the room carefully to make sure it was safe and sound. At last, Gengsan said, "there's only one bed in the room. Your Majesty, you can rest here tonight. I'll guard outside."

"No, you don't have to. You can rest here. I will leave in a minute."

"In a minute?" Gengsan was a little surprised. Wasn't it the next afternoon?

Yun Shang nodded and explained to him, "The people in this posthouse are all my people. Soon, the posthouse manager will come to deliver something with his wife. I then will exchange identity with his wife and go to the main room to rest. Early tomorrow morning, I will pretend to go to the town to buy food and wait for an opportunity to leave with a disguise. But I will not leave the town until you do.

This town is small. The people entering or leaving the town are very eye-catching. There is a grain store in the town. It's autumn now and it is the season for good harvest. I will disguise as the manager of the grain store and take some people to the nearby villages to collect grains. Then I'll find an chance to leave. "

Gengsan was surprised. He had been with Luo Qingyan before, but he was not a personal secret guard. He had heard of the Empress, but he hadn't had much contact with her.

He had heard many people praise the Empress for her thoughtfulness and wisdom, but he had never witness it with his own eyes.

This time, he saw it.

He had made sure that there was no one following them, but she still arranged the matter in a very detailed and considerate way.

No wonder even the Emperor was obedient to such a woman. He would rather leave the imperial household vacant than take a concubine. He only wanted her company.
