The Rebirth of the Deposed Empress

But Shen Yi couldn't care less about so many things. It was better to die in the capital than to die of poison three days later.

What if there is a turning point?

After a moment, Shen Yi put down his pen.

Ye Yi once again handed the paper to Ye Buhuo. Ye Yi took it, but did not look at the paper in his hand but looked at Shen Yi.

Shen Yi hurriedly said:

"The information on this paper is absolutely true! Your Majesty must return safely!"

Ye Buhuo then lowered his head and carefully looked at the information on the paper.

Ye Yi ordered the soldiers to take Shen Yi to the prison and keep him under strict guard.

"Go back to the city lord's palace."

"Yes."

It was already dinner time when Ye Buhuo returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

Tomorrow Hua Wu Ke will go to Bufeng Ridge with Ye Buhuo. After the meal, the usually active Hua Wu Jing became a little quiet.

Hua Wujing looked at Hua Wuke from time to time, worry evident between his brows.

"elder brother."

Hua Wu Ke cried helplessly.

"Didn't I practice with you this afternoon? Are you still worried?"

In order to prevent his father and brother from worrying about him, when Ye Buhuo went to "intimidate" Shen Yi, Hua Wuke found Hua Wujing and proposed to compete with him.

Hua Wujing knew that his sister practiced martial arts every day, but he just thought that Hua Wuke had learned some tricks for self-defense.

It was not until they exchanged a few moves on the ring that Hua Wujing began to act serious.

Hua Wu Ke was trained by Qing Zhu and Ye Bu Huo.

These two are masters, have been through many battles, and have accumulated some tricks gained from actual combat.

He taught them all to Hua Wuke without hesitation.

In addition, Hua Wuke's weapon, which was similar to a hidden weapon, provided her with additional assistance.

Hua Wujing has more experience in fighting in the battlefield. He has no problem fighting in a team, but his experience in fighting alone is really not as good as Ye Buhuo and Qingzhu.

So at the end of the competition, although Hua Wujing won, it was not an easy win.

The competition in the afternoon had made the Hua family father and son feel a little relieved, but this worry could not be completely dispelled.

"Sui Sui, regarding the food and fodder issue... Brother can still think of a way. Your safety is the most important thing!"

Day two.

In order not to attract attention, Hua Wuke prepared to leave with Ye Buhuo early in the morning.

At the gate of the inner courtyard, Hua Zhukong and his son Hua Rongyu saw the two of them out.

Along the way, Hua Wujing held Hua Wuke's hand and kept reminding her to be careful like a mother who was worried about her child on a long journey.

Although Hua Zhukong was also worried, in order not to affect Hua Wuke, she did not show her worries on the surface. Instead, she looked at her with a very calm look, which made Hua Wuke feel that this mission was not so worrying.

Hua Rongyu knew that Hua Wuke’s mission was of great importance, and she couldn’t leave him behind just because she was worried about her.

Feeling helpless, he told the two of them to be careful.

After bidding farewell to Hua Zhukong and the others, Ye Buhuo and Hua Wuke set off together.

The two of them changed into the attire of an ordinary merchant brother and sister, and asked Ye Yi and Qing Zhu to dress up as a servant and a maid. They got on a standard carriage and set off.

Bufengling is about thirty miles south of Beimoguan.

But in order not to alert the enemy, Ye Buhuo did not go directly to Bufengling.

After traveling for a day, the carriage finally arrived at a small town at the foot of Bufeng Ridge in the evening - Bufeng Town.

The carriage stopped as soon as it entered Bufeng Town. Ye Buhuo and Hua Wuke sat in the carriage, while Ye Yi went to find out where they could spend the night.

"Master, Miss, there is an inn not far ahead."

Ye Yi came back after some investigation and stood outside the curtain to report to the two of them.

"Let's go rest somewhere tonight."

After getting Ye Buhuo's nod, Ye Yi got on the carriage and drove towards the inn.

The inn was not far from the entrance of the town. In less than a moment, Ye Yi pulled the reins and stopped the carriage in front of the inn.

Qingzhu got off the carriage first, then lifted the curtain.

Ye Buhuo walked down first, then turned around and held Hua Wuke's arm through his sleeve to help her down steadily.

"Hey, you four, are you going to have a quick meal or stay in a hotel?"

Seeing Ye Buhuo and his three companions walk in, the innkeeper hurriedly greeted them.

"Four upper rooms."

Ye Yi walked forward, placed a silver ingot in front of the shopkeeper, and spoke.

One could tell at a glance that the group consisted of two young men and a young lady with two maids and a servant boy.

I didn't expect that the servants would also live in the upper rooms. I didn't expect that two wealthy and powerful people would suddenly come to Bufeng Town, where no outsiders had visited for a long time.

The shopkeeper happily accepted the money, called the waiter to take the four people upstairs, and said with a smile:

"Dear guests, if you need anything else, please let us know. We will definitely get it done for you."

The waiter took the four people to the third floor. Ye Yi asked the waiter to bring up some food, and then the waiter left.

After a while, the waiter brought the meal and knocked on the door.

Ye Yi opened the door, took the food, and waited for the waiter to go downstairs before going into another room.

The four rooms were just a cover. For safety reasons, only two of them were actually used.

Qingzhu and Huawuke are in the same room, Yebuhuo and Yeyi are in the same room.

Hua Wu Ke had dinner with Ye Buhuo in his room, and then took Qing Zhu back to his room to rest.

After resting for a night, Ye Buhuo took Hua Wuke to the street.

I don’t know if it’s because Bufeng Town is close to the border, but although this town is not small, there are not many people. There are only a few shops open on both sides of the street, and the stalls on the street are not visited by many people.

Ye Buhuo and Hua Wuke walked side by side on the street, looking at the deserted streets and the few pedestrians passing by occasionally.

Then Ye Buhuo noticed an old man selling herbs on the roadside.

This street is so sparsely populated, yet in just a short while, several people came to buy this herb.

"Uncle, what is this?"

Seeing Ye Buhuo stop in front of the medicine stall, Ye Yi asked.

I didn't expect that there were people in Bufeng Town who didn't know about this hemp grass. The old man looked up in surprise.

Seeing a few people who were obviously not dressed like people from Bufeng Town, the old man realized that they were from other places.

"This is leprosy, which is used to treat urticaria. For some reason, the people in Bufeng Town have been more and more prone to urticaria in recent years."

"Even if they are outsiders, they will get measles in a few days."

"So gradually, no one came to Fengbu Town anymore, and the people of Fengbu Town moved away one after another, and the town became desolate."

Just as they were talking to the old man, a man came to the medicine stall and bought some hemp.

The old man tied the hemp into a bundle with a straw rope and handed it to the man. He put the money he got from buying the herbs neatly into his sleeve, and then continued to talk to Ye Buhuo and others.

"Did you see that man just now? The red spots on his body are the precursor of measles."

"Once the urticaria poison has completely entered the body, the red spots will begin to peel off and itch in large areas."

"The measles the old man was talking about, is it this?"

As soon as the old man finished speaking, Hua Wu Ke asked.

She slowly stretched out her hand and gently lifted a little of her sleeve, revealing her white wrist.

There were a few red spots on that fair wrist, which were particularly obvious against the white skin.
