King Zhou was very serious when he said this. However, his younger brother had some bad habits since he was a child. He had been told this countless times since he was a child, but he never changed it.
This time was no exception. As soon as he lowered his face, Brother Zhou looked at his face carefully while admitting his mistake: "I know I shouldn't hide this from you, but I didn't cause any harm. This is just
It’s just a small matter, I can handle it myself, trust me.”
Zhou Wen had no choice but to sigh. Every time he taught him a lesson with a straight face, he behaved like a good boy who corrected his mistakes and showed great kindness. As soon as he turned around, he forgot all about what he had said and kept doing the same thing.
Sometimes he would give up arguing on this issue, and let him go as long as no big mistakes were made.
"Forget it, you won't change even if I tell you. Don't mention this matter anymore. Just take control of it yourself. Let's talk about the city gate first. How are the arrangements?"
"Don't worry, I've already given instructions that if anything related to Zhu Changhao appears, it will be withheld first."
"I leave this matter to you, so of course I have nothing to worry about. I have already discussed it with Jierhalang. He will find time to take his people to the capital in the next few days. Then you have to
Be prepared and do what you should do.”
"Oh, I understand. Brother, you have worked hard these days. Go and have a good rest first. Just leave the matters here to me."
King Zhou was indeed tired these days. Although his younger brother was sometimes a little too willful, there was still no problem at critical moments. He was really relieved to leave the matter to himself.
This was the first day the city gates were opened, and the inspection was very strict. There were also an especially large number of people who wanted to enter and leave the city. Everyone was extremely busy on this day.
However, there was no harvest on the first day. After a day of careful investigation at the city gate, nothing related to King Rui was found.
They reported the situation to the two brothers of King Zhou truthfully. King Zhou's brother was rarely angry this time and appeared to be extra patient. But the more patient he is, the more terrifying it will be if the final result is not satisfactory.
.
Early the next morning, Xiaotong returned to Rouge Shop with the things Wen Shaoxue asked him to prepare. After looking around and finding no one around, he quickly entered the secret room.
"The shopkeeper asked me to bring these things to you. You can take them with you for use on the road. We can only try our best to help you get out of the city. What happens next depends on your own destiny."
Yichen took the things he handed over with both hands: "Thank you so much, little brother, and your shopkeeper, thank her for us as well. It's such a great kindness, and I will definitely repay it if I have the opportunity in the future."
Wen Xiaotong just responded, but didn't answer. He wanted to say in his heart that as long as you don't continue to cause her trouble, and you can leave the capital smoothly and smoothly, it will be a good reward for her.
"When you are ready, let's set off. They are waiting for us near the city gate." Xiaotong urged.
"We don't have anything to pack, let's set off now." Yichen only brought some dry food for the road, and the most important thing was the gauze that Prince Huai would use and the medicine that needed to be changed next.
.
"When you leave the capital, remember to find a doctor to take a look at his wounds, but be sure not to cause any problems." Xiaotong warned.
"Don't worry, I know." Yichen smiled.
The two of them changed into the clothes that Wen Xiaotong had brought over in the secret room, and smeared a few handfuls of ashes on their faces randomly. Their hunched-down look was no different from other homeless people in the city.
"Okay, let's go." Xiaotong was quite satisfied with the two sets of clothes she picked. They really fit them and matched their temperaments.
"Okay, please be careful, Prince." Yichen carefully helped Prince Huai out. The two people who saw the light again involuntarily narrowed their eyes. Xiaotong stood aside and waited for them to recover first.
"That's almost it, let's go." Yichen felt that he could adapt to the surrounding environment, so he helped Prince Huai and walked slowly along the wall, mingling with a group of real homeless people.
"The shopkeeper is near the city gate. She has already prepared the next step. You must be careful." Even if she didn't like this person normally, Xiaotong couldn't help but warn her at this time.
"Don't worry, you guys are too. Be careful when you go back." Yichen waved his hand, supported King Huai and disappeared around the corner of the city wall.
Wen Shaoxue waited for a long time and finally saw two figures slowly moving toward her. They were Yichen and Prince Huai.
"Let's go, now is the time when there are many people, I will take you out quietly." She grasped the jade pendant in her hand, success or failure depended on this.
The guards at the city gate were diligently checking everyone who passed by, and they would spend a long time checking anything that could be remotely related to the word "Rui".
A woman followed a long car and walked over slowly. She took out a few taels of silver from her sleeves and gave them to the guards at the city gate: "Brothers, thank you for your hard work standing guard here. We ordinary people can
A safe and sound life depends on the hard work of all brothers. Please accept your small thoughts."
She was pretty and spoke nicely, so the guards were not polite and accepted the money with a smile: "What do you have in your car?"
"There was a fire in the store some time ago. When I was checking the goods, I found that there was something wrong with a batch of goods. It happened to be that I couldn't open during this period. I wanted to take this opportunity to send the things back to him. I also hope that some big brothers can
It can be convenient."
"It's just a matter of routine for us, so we still need to unpack and check it. Don't worry, as long as there's no big problem, we won't make it difficult for you." The words were quite polite, but the movements of the hands of these people were not slow at all.
After walking into those big boxes, I opened them and started rummaging through them.
Countless rouge, gouache and other things rolled to the ground, and powder and scented liquid were scattered all over the floor.
"Hey, hey, what's going on with you guys? Can't you be more careful? You guys broke this thing, how can we go back and get the money?" Liu'er shouted loudly with her hands on her hips.
"We have all said that this is just a routine matter. You are so anxious to stop us. Is there really something shameful?" The guarding soldier's voice was naturally louder than hers.
"You...you guys, you are so disrespectful, you are so rude after accepting our money, I tell you, we are..." She was hurriedly stopped by Wen Shaoxue in the middle of her words.
"The little girl can't speak. Please forgive me, adults. I will apologize to you on her behalf."
