Dressed as a subjugated princess, I will take my husband into exile with me

Thinking of the seriousness of the epidemic, Zhao Lingshan turned to Zhu Li and said, "Don't tell everyone about this for the time being. Think about how to explain the problem of speeding up."

"Also, everyone is warned not to come into contact with any strangers on this stretch of road."

"It is best not to take the official road. If the epidemic spreads, the control and blockade route will start from the official road first."

"So now you have to quickly find a path that avoids the epidemic area as much as possible, so that we can leave as quickly as possible."

Zhu Li nodded repeatedly and had no doubts about her arrangement.

After receiving the order, he immediately started relevant matters.

Everyone listened to Zhu Li's instructions, and no one raised any objections.

Although they didn't know why, the team's speed suddenly increased.

But they believe that this decision also went through the Zhao family head.

Along the way, their time was arranged very reasonably.

Neither missed catching up on life nor wasted time on the road.

Now that there is such an arrangement, there must be his reasons.

And they could vaguely feel that something serious had happened.

But since the commander didn't say anything, they didn't ask and just followed the arrangements.

As soon as they finished explaining the matter, the team went on the road, even the rest time was cancelled.

What is gratifying is that no one made a sound of dissatisfaction, and they all followed the team silently and left the city gate.

It wasn't until the night was dark and visibility was already very low that they found a place to rest on the side of the road.

At this time, everyone started to light a fire to cook and take a good breath.

Just when everyone finished dinner, put away the pots and pans, and prepared to rest, they suddenly saw dots of fire not far away.

As the fire moved, they saw someone holding a torch walking towards their direction.

"Ah, how come there are so many people here?" The other party also came closer and discovered this large group of them.

Then one of them with sharp eyes spotted the official and hurriedly said, "I didn't know that the official was resting here. We were just passing by. I hope we didn't disturb the official!"

Since ancient times, people have not fought with officials. No matter what tasks these officials are performing, they are not someone they can provoke.

Zhu Li didn't want to embarrass them, but when he saw these people carrying large and small bags, they looked like they were fleeing.

He felt something strange, so when they were about to leave, he asked, "It's so late, where are you going with so many things?"

The man who took the lead smiled and then replied: "Guan Ye, we are going to stay with relatives for a while."

"Because something happened suddenly and the reminder in the letter was quite urgent, we hurriedly hurried and set off overnight."

Zhu Li naturally didn't believe his words.

"Are you people who live around here?" He asked in a different way.

"Back to you, sir, we are from the nearby village." The man didn't dare to hide anything and answered truthfully.

"Oh, in that case, I want to ask you about a place." Zhu Li chatted step by step.

"My lord, feel free to ask. As long as we know something, we will definitely tell you." The man always had a smile on his face. Compared to other people, he was much smoother.

"That place is called Xiaoshu Village..." Zhu Li mentioned the current Plague Village.

"S-Small Tree Village... Guan, what are you asking about here?" The smile on the man's face finally disappeared, replaced by a panicked expression.

And while talking, he and his companions were retreating continuously, keeping distance from Zhu Li and the others.

Could it be that the people escorted by these officials were all infected with the epidemic?

Are you asking them for the location now just to send people to the Plague Village?

In this case, if they stand so close to these people, wouldn't it be easy for them to be infected?

Zhu Li had confirmed from their reactions that these people knew that the epidemic was occurring.

And because they fled in such a hurry, the disease must have spread again!

And they looked scared, maybe they had misunderstood themselves and the exiled team.

"You don't need to be nervous. I just asked casually. Our destination is Yunzhou." Zhu Li explained casually.

The man's expression softened when he heard that he was not on a mission to escort patients.

"My lord, please forgive me for saying anything. Regarding Xiaoshu Village, my lord, please don't ask any more."

"Since you are just passing through here, don't stay too long. If you can leave quickly, leave as soon as possible!" The man felt that by saying this, he was doing his best.

Zhu Li naturally knew that his words were indeed for their benefit, so he gave him a fist to express his gratitude.

Those people didn't say anything more, but hurriedly continued on their way holding torches.

The exiles heard Zhu Li's conversation with them, but they didn't understand what was going on.

Just looking at the man who kept secret about the village Zhu Li mentioned made me a little curious.

"Master Zhao, look, should we continue on our way?" Zhu Li found Zhao Lingshan calmly and asked her opinion immediately.

Zhao Lingshan also knew that there must be a reason for those people to flee overnight.

The biggest possibility is that the epidemic is out of control and they are fleeing to survive.

"It seems we have no choice but to leave. The longer we stay here, the more dangerous we will be." Zhao Linshan said her thoughts decisively.

"Okay, I'll assemble the team immediately, and we'll set off overnight!" Zhu Li did not hesitate and immediately gave the order to assemble.

The exiled people did not complain as before, they just quickly packed up their things and prepared to assemble.

Although walking at night and with poor visibility, the speed will be much slower.

But there is an old saying, "Want to walk rather than stand." As long as you are moving, you will always create distance.

"Tell me, did something happen?" Zhou Chengzhi quietly came to Fu Wenli and talked to him in a low voice.

"I don't know, we just need to follow the good team." Fu Wenli replied impatiently.

But worry had already arisen in his heart.

If it weren't for natural or man-made disasters or unavoidable major events, the exiled team would not have rushed on their way in this way.

Moreover, only the escorting officers and the head of the Zhao family knew what happened, and no one else was told.

This shows that what they are facing now is definitely not simple.

I don't want them to know the reason just because I don't want to cause panic!

But the more this happened, the more he couldn't calm down in his heart.

Compared with known risks, unknown things are more worrying!
