Lan Qin wasn't the only one who noticed it, the other people on the horse naturally knew as well.

Mo Weinong moved closer to the window and looked outside. Not far away, he saw a small figure striding forward with difficulty, running and walking, falling and climbing back up, but her goal was clear: to follow behind their group.

The distance was too far, and the carriage was swaying back and forth. Mo Weinong could not see it clearly, and only faintly felt that it should be a child.

Shen Qian had always been at the back of the horse carriage, so he had seen the person clearly. At this time, he came over on his horse horse and whispered to her, "Miss, it's the child that was startled by the horse carriage when we entered the city on the first day.

Mo Weinong was startled, it's him?

At that time, after she exposed Dou Qin's true appearance, she led a group of people to the yamen. She remembered that the child was following behind him at the yamen.

Later … When no one was looking, she went to the prison to see Dou Qin and didn't see him again.

What was the child doing behind him now?

Mo Weinong frowned, and called out to Shen Ling who was the coachman: "Stop."

"Phew …" Shen Ling pulled the reins, and the others stopped as well.

Mo Weinong jumped down from the carriage and walked towards the back.

The boy saw them stop and stopped too. Seeing Mo Weinong walking towards him, she suddenly felt uneasy.

Especially after Mo Weinong stood in front of him, he took a step back with her small hands, looking at her timidly.

"Why are you following us?" Mo Weinong bent down and asked him.

The child pursed his dry lips and moved his shoes that had been worn out from walking. He said in a small voice, "Can, can I go with you?"

"Hmm?"

"I, I want to go with you. "Okay, okay?" Afraid that she would refuse, the child reached out to grab her, but drew back as if afraid that she would blame him.

Mo Weinong frowned, and said: "We are returning to the capital, your home is in Haozhou, yours is..." She originally wanted to talk about her family, but she suddenly recalled that someone said that her child's parents were gone the other day. The words in her mouth turned and she said, "The money for the disaster should have been sent to you, right?"

The child nodded his head and took out a small cloth bag from his bosom. He took out all the silver inside and handed it over to her.

Mo Weinong let out a light breath, "Since you've already received the silver, it's not a problem to let you eat and rest for the time being. When the time comes, you can go live in the Hall of Mercenaries and there will be someone who will take care of you. "

When the child heard her words, he became somewhat anxious and stuffed the silver taels into her hands. "I, I want to go with you …"

"But I can't take you back." Mo Weinong's face darkened, "You and I are neither family nor friends, I have something I need to do myself, so I am unable to take care of you. Obediently go back now, do you hear me? "

The child was a little afraid of her when he saw her expression.

Mo Weinong frowned, she did not care about him anymore, and turned to leave.

Her family wasn't a shelter, so how could she just casually come and take a parentless child?

Bringing Xiao Dong back was because of Qin Niangzi.

It was only after he saved Eighth Prince that their relationship got better and better because of the pair of eyes that looked similar to his.

But to Mo Weinong, this child was a stranger who had only met him twice and didn't even know his name. Let alone not knowing why he insisted on going back with her, just those people in her residence and the Eighth Prince in her residence all had rather special identities.

Mo Weinong got back onto the carriage and said, "Let's go."

"Yes." Shen Ling did not hesitate, with a shake of his reins, the carriage went back onto the road.

The others were even more expressionless, as they wouldn't care about that child in the slightest.

Only Lan Qin looked behind him and couldn't bear to do so. In the end, she gritted her teeth and hardened her heart, turned her head back, and looked straight ahead.

The group continued to walk forward, and Mo Weinong didn't pay any more attention to whether the child had caught up or not.

Although the carriage's speed was not fast, for a child who only used his legs to walk, he was left far behind.

Yuan Jin lifted the Car Curtain and immediately bent over and entered.

Then, he looked at Lan Qin and said, "You sit in the front."

"…" Lan Qin didn't even dare to raise his head. She weakly lowered his head and carefully went out, sitting on the shaft of the carriage with Shen Ling. His Highness is so terrifying, and his eyes are so cold.

Mo Weinong glared at him, "Why are you scaring her?"

"What did I do?" With an innocent face, Yuan Jin leaned on her side with his hands held up.

Mo Weinong glanced at him before pouring herself a cup of water to drink.

Yuan Jin also poured himself a cup of water and laid down lazily.

Mo Weinong frowned, "You want to sit in the carriage? Not riding anymore? " And what was it about keeping an eye on her? She felt uncomfortable all over.

"No?" Yuan Jin laughed, "If you want to ride together, this king can consider it."

Forget it, she didn't ask. That is … He felt more sympathy for Lan Qin and him.

For the rest of the time, Yuan Jin stayed in the carriage.

He actually felt very comfortable, but he had to endure Lan Qin's pain. He sat by the side of the carriage, worried that he would fall down at any time, and continued to tighten his nerves until his waist started to ache, and even his back started to ache.

Six hours later, the carriage arrived at Ran Zhou City.

The Rangzhou City had not been affected by the floods, so it was quite bustling.

Yuan Jin looked at the sky and said to her, "We will rest in Ran Zhou City tonight. The next town is still a distance away from here, we probably won't be able to reach it before it gets dark. We will leave tomorrow, since we are not in a rush."

"Alright."

In fact, it was still early in the morning and the sun was still high in the sky.

It was just that the next town was the Mi County where Mo Weinong had rested for the last time. If they had arrived quickly, they would have been able to, but now that she was sitting in the carriage, she could only rest here.

Cen Yi took the initiative to settle down at the inn, and only then did they manage to stay.

Originally, Lan Qin wanted to stroll around in the city, but now that her body was stiff, forget about shopping, even washing her face and rinsing her mouth would be difficult.

Seeing that, Mo Weinong glared at Yuan Jin again, and even his suggestion of taking a walk was rejected straight away.

Everyone rested for the night. The next morning, they arranged the carriages and set off on their journey again.

Not long after the carriage left Ran Zhou City, Cen Yi, who was leading the way, suddenly pulled on the reins, staring straight ahead.
