The Abandoned Princess

Dividing Tasks

The gates of Phoenix are closed very late, always closed when the sky is very dark.

The carriage that was carrying Lexie to the city gate had been waiting for a while, hearing a sound from afar Lexie flickering the curtains to catch a glimpse, he saw the entourage of people wearing Beiming country clothes slowly approaching.

There were about seven or eight horse carriages in the entourage, there were hundreds of guards around the horse carriage, the one sitting on the horse carriage was the one who had come into contact with Zacky in the past few days.

Seeing the group approaching, the driver rushed straight towards the group, as if recognizing this driver, automatically opening the road, letting the horse carriage also follow the group.

Without changing the look of the face, this horse carriage had mingled with the group, then the group went to the city gate.

Lexie lowered the curtain, her heart was already hanging down her throat, looking at Zacky and Ernie, both of them were also looking tense, after a while, they listened to someone outside the carriage talking to the city gatekeeper.

It turned out that the bodyguards from the Beiming country entourage had already made a letter to ask at the city gate, so when they arrived at the city gate, the guards would only ask a few questions and then release them out of the city.

The group started to walk back, the horse carriage in which Lexie and the others were riding also passed through the gate smoothly, after all the group had passed through the city gate, the sky was already very dark, the, the city gates will be closed soon.

The sky was already dark, but the group did not stop immediately, but walked forward for another hour, and arriving at a small town, this group sought lodging in a small town and settled down.

Lexie also gets off the horse-drawn carriage with Zacky's help, officially meeting Beiming's aide-general.

"This is my younger sister Rosie, this is Ernie." At the entrance of the inn Zacky introduced the two to the aide, then said to Lexie, "This is lord Julian Nan, lord Julian is the most formidable aide under the general of the Beiming country, who is the most powerful, and also a confidant of the general.

Because he wanted to hide his name so Zacky didn't say Lexie's real name, and used another name.

"Hello, Mr. Julian." Lexie slowly saluted, her face slightly pale, making Julian a little suspicious.

Zacky rushed to explain: "This brother of mine is not very good condition since childhood, some days also catch a cold, so his face is a little pale."

When Julian heard him instantly frown, "If it were like that, if tonight still goes on the way, would miss be able to hold on?"

Zacky was stunned, looking at the inn behind him and the crowd who had packed up, then asked: "Aren't we staying at this inn tonight?"

Julian shook his head smiling meaningfully, "You don't think you can escape the eyes and ears of king Victor in this way do you? King Victor is a man who is known by the entire continent, is a god in the battlefield, do you think with some surrogates, then they can really fool him? I don't think for 3 hours, you'll be found. When checked later, it's easy to suspect that we've taken you away, so we've had to remove suspicion from us."

After saying that, Lexie stone was a little more relieved, initially seeing the process of getting out of this so simple city, Lexie was still agitated, this kind of method could fool the average person, he said, but absolutely cannot fool Victor who is like a fox.

Julian who could carefully plan up to this point, no wonder was the most formidable aide of the Beiming country general, at the same time, Lexie was also rather curious, the general who can convince such an aide, serve him doesn't seem like an ordinary person.

Julian saw his timing was tight, he no longer rambled, turning his body running towards the entourage, not how long he called out to the three guards, these three guards standing behind him respectfully, he then said: "Now that you go separately, I will send people to protect you separately, then we will meet in the town of Campbell, the capital of Beiming state. You don't assume these people who protect you a little bit, some of these people are great guards, the fewer people it won't be easy to expose."

"Started?" Zacky was worried when she heard it, looking at Lexie, "My fellow student's condition ... If no one takes care of her ..."

"Sister! No problem, I have hands and feet, I will take care of myself, when my condition is bad, then it will definitely be slower than you, maybe you guys should wait for me for a while when you regroup." Lexie interrupted Zacky's words.

Zacky still wanted to say something but seeing Lexie, shaking her head they had no choice now, they had to leave separately, trying to avoid Victor's eyes and ears to have a chance at life, or wait for Victor's men to catch up, then ...

Lexie wasn't afraid of death, she had already died once, when already at that moment she felt free instead, she was just afraid of dragging Zacky and Ernie along.

"Alright, we're listening to Mr. Julian's arrangements." Zacky hesitated for a moment finally agreeing.

After everything was ready some horses were brought here, Zacky could ride horses, of course each, had one horse with that guard, Ernie and Lexie couldn't ride a horse just riding a horse with the guards, it was just that the timing was a little urgent, there was no time to pay attention to the detailed rules of this arrangement.

The guard who carried Lexie on the horse, when his eyes swept over Lexie could not help but be surprised, so when the two sat on the horse, the guard's face was extremely red.

"Hey, Arlo can you be a little more useful? Don't be like a long-winded girl!" Even Julian couldn't bear to see it, unable to resist mocking the guard.

The guard had a redder face, when on such a dwarf, lowered his head and did not dare to speak.

Julian shook his head, smiled and said to Lexie, "Miss, please be advised, this child is still unmarried, so his face is indeed thinner, but due to the urgent time, this child is still not married, can't find a woman in the entourage who has great martial arts to protect you.

"No problem. I think Arlo's brother is also an honest man." Lexie smiled completely no objection, accustomed to seeing such a devious man as Victor, suddenly seeing such an innocent young man, she just found it interesting.

Zacky and Ernie are worried, both reminding Lexie and the guards escorting Lexie, Arlo, until Julian unkindly urges, they just rush off.

They walk forward, Arlo takes Lexie on another path. Since this small town was close to the city of Phoenix, so the city was also very prosperous, out of this city there were different roads leading to different cities.

After they had been gone for an hour, the gates of the Phoenix city were opened again, and this time it was the retinue of the guards of the residence of the king Victor with a serious look.
