Phew, I was so hungry that I could swallow a cow. Now that I have dealt with all the things, I finally feel a little more relaxed. So Guan Heng shook his head slightly and then asked: Madam, have you decided when to set off?

Cynthia nodded: Well, I'm going to discuss this matter with you after dinner.

bang bang bang

At the dinner table, Guan Heng and the tyrannosaurus maid Veda were fighting for the fish on the plate at the same time. He said casually: So, you are planning to go to the capital of Kauru with us.

Of course. With her strong brute force, the triumphant Veda finally took away most of the fish with a fork: Mrs. Cyndia and her daughter are the marshal's family members. Do you know what that concept is?

When Veda said this, her eyes were full of money-hungry little stars: She is full of glory and wealth. I plan to work as a personal maid for the madam and her daughter. As long as I work for two years, I can buy a house in the local area and then take over.

My dad is going to the royal capital to enjoy his happiness

What a filial and good daughter. After hearing these words, the old woodcutter laughed happily. He moved a piece of delicious barbecue to Veda's dinner plate: Here, dad rewards you.

Well, if Madam agrees, I will raise my hands and feet in support of Guan Heng. He smiled: After all, Veda is the best and most capable maid in Dia City. She is more useful than a whole team of mercenary bodyguards.

Hehehe After hearing Guan Heng's words, both mother and daughter Cyndia and Yulijia laughed.

After dinner, Yulijia looked sleepy after playing all day, so she hugged Dingchun, who was still sleeping, and went back to their room with Veda to sleep.

Guan Heng, on the other hand, was chatting with the old woodcutter Cyndia by the stove.

In addition to the dangers encountered in Dia City, I believe that our journey to the royal capital will not be peaceful along the way.

Guan Heng said solemnly: When I was rescuing my wife in the general's mansion, I heard the mercenary guard say that the guard general Carson had received an order from a noble person in the royal capital before he attacked his wife and Yulijia.

Presumptuous

After rubbing his hands, Guan Heng looked at Cyndia and said: It's a pity that when I was interrogating Carson and wanted to know who was behind the scenes, this kid jumped over the wall and ran away. He would rather fall off a cliff than let me ask for the information.

Sigh, thank you for your trouble. Cyndia rubbed her forehead and whispered with a bit of sadness: I think it must be some of my husband's political enemies who are seeking personal revenge to embarrass our mother and daughter.

Hey, what Mrs. Cynthia said is probably not entirely true.

The expression on his face was as usual and he remained calm, but Guan Heng thought secretly in his heart: The news I heard in the General's Mansion said that there were many confidants trained by the First Lady and the Second Lady in the Marshal's Mansion in the Royal Capital, and they were very unconvinced.

Cyndia and her daughter are about to arrive at the Marshal's Mansion and step on them as the third wife and young lady.

I don't want to get involved in the internal strife among these officials. Guan Heng then thought about it: However, if I can break into the aristocratic circle in the royal capital in the name of protecting the marshal's wife and young lady, and get close to Kauru

The king will have a chance to get a letter of introduction to enter the Elf Forest.

Besides, Cyndia and her daughter are now like small boats floating in the storm, in danger of capsizing at any time. At this time, Guan Heng made up his mind: After this trip is over and they arrive at the royal capital of Kauru, I will protect them first.

Let's talk about it later

Cindia found that the other party was looking at the fire thoughtfully, so she asked: Guan Heng, what are you thinking about?

Madam, I'm thinking that there is probably a group of people who are keeping an eye on your whereabouts. Guan Heng picked up a piece of firewood and gently fiddled with the bonfire: Just like what I told Yuliga on the road outside the city of Dia,

There seemed to be about a dozen people, all with weapons.

Oh, is that so? I seemed to have some impression. Cyndia tightened her eyebrows and said softly: It's really difficult to deal with these people who are keeping an eye on us. If it's my opinion, it's best.

Get out of their way, get rid of these people

Well, it seems that Cyndia doesn't want to make too many enemies for her husband and the Marshal's Mansion, so she chooses to avoid it. It doesn't matter if she doesn't hurt anyone.

Impressed by the thoughtfulness of the future third lady of the Marshal's Mansion and her strong yet soft temperament, Guan Heng secretly nodded in praise. He then asked the old woodcutter sitting next to him who was about to take a nap: Do you know the road to the royal capital?

, are there any relatively secret and secluded shortcuts that no one knows about and that can be used by horse-drawn carriages?

Yes, I remember it very clearly. The cozy old woodcutter was swaying in his easy chair. He squinted his eyes and said: There are not many shortcuts to the royal capital that can avoid the main road like this. It happens to be Dia City.

There are three nearby, and my daughter Veda and I both know about them.

So the old woodcutter told Guan Heng and Cindia the directions of these three roads.

After repeated discussions, the two chose a more suitable shortcut. It was a flat road that could pass horse-drawn carriages and was relatively secretive. These conditions were met. However, it was only a little detoured and had to pass through an abandoned fortress called Fort Quoin. From there,

Only when you get out of there can you reach the area near the royal capital.

The next day, after bidding farewell to the old woodcutter, Veda drove the carriage and loaded Cyndia and Yulijia mother and daughter. Guan Heng rode on horseback to accompany her, and the group began to head towards the royal capital of Kauru.

Moved forward

At first, the road was relatively peaceful, because after Guan Heng and Cyndia discussed the secret path they chose, basically no one knew about it.

Only the old woodcutter and his daughter Veda, who had been collecting firewood for many years, knew how to navigate this road without losing their way.

But just after the carriage left for a day and a night, something unexpected happened

At first, Yulijia in the carriage screamed, and Guan Heng rode over to take a look. It turned out that the little white lion Dingchun finally woke up.

Now that he wakes up, he has his next move. No one expected that this little guy Dingchun is not big, but he has a big appetite.

In just ten minutes, dried meat, dry food, fruits and snacks, and everything else that could be eaten in the car went into Dingchun's stomach, but he was still a little dissatisfied, as if he was not full.

Whining lowly, Dingchun was lying weakly on Yulijia's knees.

Yulijia looked a little pitiful at the little guy, so she asked again: Brother Guan Heng, do we still have something to eat?
