Chapter 140: Chapter 140: A Warm Scene

What?

Upon hearing Yan Lian’s words, Yan Lin’s movement in pulling the horse reins halted ever so slightly.

A flicker of emotion passed through his eyes before he asked in a deep voice, "Isn’t that child’s mother in the Nanduan Kingdom?"

"Yes, I remember he told you before that his mother was indeed in the Nanduan Kingdom. However, this isn’t really a big issue; it’s probably just that as a child, he missed his mother, so he called out like that," Yan Lian remarked thoughtfully.

"Is that so?"

Yan Lin murmured softly, the shadow in his eyes growing darker.

Why did he feel that something was... not right?

Chu Baihan had already instructed Ruolan and the others to drive the carriage away, so upon seeing this, Yan Lin had no choice but to suppress his doubts and quickly rode to catch up with them.

Inside the carriage, Chu Baihan watched the two little ones who had fallen asleep again and cast a serious glance at the opposite side.

Nan Xing and Ruolan were seated across from her.

"How are Wuji and the others doing?" she asked quietly.

"Reporting to the Princess, they are already on their way here and should meet up with us very soon," Nan Xing promptly replied.

"That is good." Chu Baihan nodded.

Originally, she thought their journey down south to Jiangnan would go smoothly, but the sudden encounter with assassins made her realize that it was better to have additional help on hand.

Her own well-being was not important, but she had two little ones with her, so errors were absolutely unacceptable.

"Princess, who do you think is behind the attempt to have us killed this time?" Ruolan asked, frowning.

"It could be people from Yan Country, they don’t want us to go to Jiangnan..."

Chu Baihan spoke sarcastically.

Whenever there was a disaster in a place, the corruption and incompetence there would be exposed, naturally making some people afraid.

Liu Cheng and Chu Hesheng, weren’t they the best proof of that?

"Humph, the people of Yan Country are really audacious, daring to harm you, Princess, just to conceal their secrets," Ruolan said through gritted teeth.

"It might not necessarily be people from Yan Country," Chu Baihan suddenly spoke in a changed tone, her voice cold, "don’t forget, the Princess has also made countless enemies in the Nanduan Kingdom."

Upon hearing this, both Ruolan and Nan Xing frowned, their expressions turning very serious.

The Princess’s speculation was certainly possible.

Because those people were truly capable of doing anything.

"Regardless, protecting Jinjin and Jingjing is the priority," Chu Baihan ordered sternly.

"Yes, Princess."

After another day and night of travel, Yan Chen still had not caught up, but Wuji and his group had caught up.

"Princess."

Wuji and Wuming rode up next to Chu Baihan’s carriage.

Since Ruolan vouched for them, Li Chi did not stop them.

"Did you encounter any trouble on your way?" Chu Baihan asked seriously as she pulled aside the curtain of the carriage.

"Replying to the Princess, it was fairly smooth. Just that in the capital, we made some noise trying to lead Prince Lin and Prince Lian away to help you, but who knew they would return so quickly."

Wuji said helplessly.

They had intended to lead Prince Lin away from the Princess, but unexpectedly, he even followed her.

Chu Baihan pressed her temples and then spoke quietly, "Even if you had succeeded in leading him away, he would have caught up eventually."

Prince Lin was determined to follow them, and no one could stop him.

"You didn’t expose your identities, did you?" Chu Baihan continued to ask sternly.

"No." Wuming quickly replied.

That was a relief, Chu Baihan slightly relaxed.

Meanwhile, Yan Lin and Yan Lian, riding at the back of the group, noticed the commotion ahead and their gaze also shifted in that direction.

Noticing the silhouettes of Wuming and Wuji, Yan Lin’s eyes slightly narrowed.

He directly asked Yan Lian, "Don’t you feel like those two Hidden Guards look very familiar?"

"Familiar? Don’t all men look like this? What’s so familiar about them?"

Yan Lian also looked quickly, his brow furrowed, his face puzzled.

Yan Lin pursed his lips and didn’t speak again.

"Prince, it’s getting dark again and the road ahead is difficult. Should we stop and rest for the night before setting off?"

At that time, Li Chi rode up on his horse to ask.

Yan Lin glanced at the night sky.

The weather at night had been poor these past few days, and it would be dangerous if they encountered a storm while passing through the mountains.

He nodded and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, rest here."

"Yes, Prince."

Chu Baihan’s carriage was in the middle.

She naturally heard what Yan Lin had said.

Although she hoped to arrive in Jiangnan sooner, she knew that traveling at night was difficult and safety was paramount.

"Ruolan, Nan Xing, go down and stretch your bodies," she said softly.

They had been cooped up in this carriage all day, and they must be uncomfortable.

"But, Princess, you..."

"I’ll be here watching these two little ones," Chu Baihan softly interjected.

Ruolan and Nan Xing exchanged glances, and finally, both nodded.

"Yes, Princess, we will go down first."

Chu Baihan began to rest with her eyes closed in the carriage.

But who would have known that it was not long before she smelled a fragrance that stirred up her hunger.

At the same time, she heard a familiar voice outside the carriage.

"Come down and eat something."

It was Yan Lin’s voice.

She lifted the carriage curtain and soon saw Yan Lin holding a rabbit leg standing outside.

She raised her eyebrows slightly.

In such a short time, they had even hunted game.

"I still need to watch over these two children," she shook her head in refusal.

The journey was so dangerous; she dared not slack off even slightly.

But at this time, the two little ones were also awakened by the smell.

They "popped" up and then rubbed their eyes.

"It smells so good, what is that?"

Chu Little Tuanzi rubbed his nose and asked in a muffled voice.

He and Yan Jingjing simultaneously poked their heads out of the carriage.

Seeing that it was meat, Chu Junxi’s eyes lit up.

He swallowed slightly, but when he saw that the person holding the meat was Yan Lin, he scrunched up his little face.

This little one, he really didn’t like him.

Yan Lin saw all of Chu Junxi’s expressions, and a few emotions flickered through his dark eyes.

What exactly was it that made this little one so resistant to him?

"Father, could you give this food to Xixi brother?"

Yan Jingjing looked at Yan Lin with hopeful eyes.

Yan Lin slightly narrowed his eyes, feeling somewhat peculiar inside.

This was the first time he had seen Jingjing take such care of someone she had just met.

"Alright."

Yan Lin handed the rabbit meat to Chu Junxi.

The little Tuanzi was clearly starving, but he still kept a straight face, pretending not to care.

Chu Baihan watched his little act and felt helpless; she could only say softly, "Xixi, eat some, otherwise you will be too hungry to sleep tonight."

Alright, his mother had allowed him to eat it.

He could eat then!

After reassuring himself in this way, Little Tuanzi quickly reached out to take the rabbit meat.

Meanwhile, Yan Lin took the opportunity to scoop him up with one hand and pick up Yan JingJing with the
