May you live in peace

In the ruined temple, more than a dozen children sat around each other, not knowing what to say.A twelve or thirteen-year-old boy stood at the door, watching the outside world from time to time, but saw a boy in gray clothes who was similar to him rushing into the temple gate.

"Shanzi, Shanzi."

Gao Shan raised her head, the fatigue of the past few days made her look a little dull.

"Shanzi, we have found out the whereabouts of the princess lady."

"where?"

Gao Shan stood up excitedly, for more than ten days in a row, she was worried that Pan Chan would frame Xi every day.Now that she was under arrest, she didn't dare to look for Luo'er easily, so she had to rest at this place and let these children go to hear news from the court and the outside world.

"I heard from Lu Liuzi that the officers and soldiers of the government have been searching around Beizhen recently. Not long ago, they found out that someone seemed to have seen the princess's wife appearing near here."

As soon as the stone in Gaoshan's heart fell, he remembered that Xi didn't bring many guards with him when he left, and now he was trapped outside the city by Pan Chan's tricks, and he didn't know whether it was dangerous or not.

The more Gao Shan thought about it, the more worried he became, and he just wanted to go to Yin Xi's side immediately, tell her what happened in the court now, and let her arrange it carefully.Seeing that the sky was getting darker, months of concern made her decide to take another risk. She needed to go out of the city to find Yin Xi, and maybe use herself to resolve Pan Chan's plan to conspire with her.

"Second brother, when will you leave the capital for the last time tonight?" Because of her assassination of Yin Ran, the capital is now almost completely locked down, and no suspect is spared. Except for the two passes in the morning and night, the rest of the time, The gates are almost always guarded.

"There is still half an hour."

The second child quickly realized what Gao Shan was going to do, turned around and ran into the temple, and took out a set of worn but clean clothes for her.

"Shanzi, this was originally a gift for the boss, but if you want to go out of Beijing now, you should wear it first."

Takasugi took the clothes and touched the head of the second child to express his gratitude.After changing their clothes, the children outside had already stood neatly together, their entire bodies rolled into pitch black in the soil.

"Shanzi, this is the mud that Lao Jiu and the others brought in the mud pond. You rub some on your body, and this, you stick it on your face. When the big seeds come, they will take us out of the city."

Gao Shan smiled slightly, these children know what it means to help themselves, and they still manage everything like this, they can't help but feel soft.He didn't say anything, but quickly dressed himself up, rubbed his messy hair into weeds, covered his body with mud, and had centipede-like flesh marks on his face. Those children found some chicken manure and threw it away. On her clothes, he took her to find the big seeds.

At the east gate, it was already late at night, Gao Shan was inconspicuous among a group of beggars.The guards of the Wuwei camp saw that they were from the beggar gang, and the hemp seed was stuffed with silver taels in the leader's hand, so these guards just glanced casually one by one.

"Wait a minute, did you have one more person today?"

The chief counted the number of people, which seemed to be wrong with the number of beggars who entered the city this morning, and suddenly remembered that the son-in-law used to be a beggar, and hurriedly scolded the group of people who were about to leave.

Dazi was stunned, but quickly returned to his original state, and hurriedly approached with a smile, stuffed the money in his pocket into the sleeve of the leader's collar, and said.

"Officer, there is one more person here than in the morning. Nuo, it's that person."

Da Dazi pointed at Gao Shan, Gao Shan's heart tightened, wondering what this Da Dazi was going to do?

This leader flipped his cuffs, then looked at Takasugi's position, walked to her side, and saw that she was dirty, her hair was messed up on her shoulders, and she couldn't tell whether she was a man or a woman.

"who are you?"

Gao Shan didn't answer, but Ma Zi stepped forward and said.

"Officer, this, eh, actually, to be honest, this is the concubine the little one is looking for."

"mistress?"

"That's right, although the young one is just a beggar, but beggars are also human beings, there are times, and there are times like that. No, it just happened that Youya man brought a woman with him today, so I bought it."

"woman?"

"Yes, yes, sir, you can check it out, she is a woman."

Da Dazi went forward and pulled the leader to check. Seeing that Dazi and Gao Shan were both full of stench, the leader waved his hand in disgust, and randomly found a small guard, asking him to see if this person was the same as the wanted son-in-law in the painting. people.

The guard couldn't bear the muddy smell and smell all over Gao Shan's body, so he patted her casually, and then lifted her hair, only to see the long and ugly flesh marks on her face, which had already changed Gao Shan's original appearance. She covered it all up, and put it down in disgust.

"Go back to your lord, no."

The leader nodded, waved again, and let everyone out.

Gao Shan breathed a sigh of relief until he couldn't see the position of the tower clearly.

"Well, brother, I'm sorry just now, I just found this excuse when I had to."

Seeing Dazi apologizing to her in embarrassment, Gao Shan shook her head, she just wanted to find Yin Xi quickly.After thanking several people again, Takasugi separated from them and left towards the north.

In the town, Yin Xi leaned on the window of the inn and fell asleep. Now the news in the capital is almost blocked. She sent secret guards to check Gao Shan's whereabouts, but only knew that she disappeared after she fled.

The general's army was sent to guard the border, and the affairs of the capital were controlled by Pan Chan, who couldn't even spread the news.In addition, Pan Chan poured the dirty water of Gao Shan's assassination on Luo Er and herself, and those ministers who were with her were restrained. Now she can't enter Beijing, so she can't control everything again.

Kneading the swollen brows, it was really a wave of ups and downs.

'Bang', 'bang', there was the sound of smashing the table downstairs, mixed with a few words of abuse, Yin Xi's expression was tense, and she wanted to go to the door to inquire about the situation.

The door was opened, and a dark guard in black knelt on the ground.

"Princess, the people from the Wuwei camp are here, you leave quickly through the back door, and your subordinates wait to hold them back."

Yin Xi frowned, so fast?

Without further communication, Yin Xi lifted the hem of her clothes and got up to leave, but was still spotted by the sharp-eyed guards downstairs.

"Who, stop!"

Yin Xi quickened her pace without looking back, and the guards quickly realized that this was the Eldest Princess Yin Xi, who was about to chase after her, but was surrounded by the dark guards who rushed over.All of a sudden, there was the sound of swords colliding in the inn.

Yin Xi left through the back door, but saw officers and soldiers patrolling outside, heard noises in the inn, and hurried forward to check the situation.

Seeing a group of people running in, Yin Xi stopped and quickly lowered her head.

"What's going on inside?"

Seeing that Yin Xi was dressed in ordinary clothes, the little leader thought he was a maid in an inn, and asked.

"Li, there was a fight inside, and it was said that the eldest princess was found."

Yin Xi replied with a trembling voice.As soon as the little leader heard about Yin Xi's news, he hurriedly led his subordinates to the inn.

Seeing this, Yin Xi quickly raised her foot and rushed out of the back door of the inn, only hearing the voice behind her.

"That's Yin Xi, chase after me!"

The night in early May was not too cold, but it was still chilly. The quiet street seemed a little deserted in this not-so-busy town.

Yin Xi fled around the edge of the town, hoping that the guards could find her as soon as possible.He had lost all feeling in his legs, but he continued to run instinctively, panting fiercely, but stopped quickly when he turned a street, and dodged to hide in the alley.

On the street, more than [-] guards held torches and searched nearby. Yin Xi took a deep breath and prepared to return to the original road.As soon as he turned around, he saw a group of officers and soldiers coming from behind, the leader was the leader who fought with the hidden guards in the inn.

Yin Xi narrowed his eyes, looked around, and saw that they seemed to have seen both sides, and were about to meet up and report back.Looking at the wall behind her and the dark street opposite, she tried her best to calm down, took a step, and rushed out.

A gray shadow flashed past, and the officers and soldiers on both sides were stunned for a moment, and then they realized the situation in an instant, and shouted hastily.

"Chase!"

Listening to the shouting from behind, "Arrest Yin Xi, seal ten thousand households", Yin Xi first felt in her heart that since her life was only worth ten thousand households, and then looked at the dark surroundings, the smaller and smaller steps she took proved that she did not Run again.

Turning a corner, leaning against the wall, panting fiercely, listening to the footsteps and voices getting closer and closer, looking up at the night sky, but couldn't even see a single star clearly.

Suddenly, a hand stretched out from behind covered her mouth, her body was hugged from behind, and then she was dragged into the alley with a little force.Yin Xi panicked and struggled to get away.But the person behind him didn't seem to intend to let her go, but picked her up and walked deep into the alley.

It was so dark that it made people feel frightened, and in this narrow alley, there was also a stench of sloppy water splashed on the soil.
