The concubine escaped and cried when she met the prince again

The old man shook his head at Shen Ruolan and said with a wry smile, "Because this is the border, there are soldiers stationed here. The court's supply is not timely, and it is common for the soldiers to have no food to eat. The garrison general and the county magistrate have no choice but to collect all the food in the city to ensure the soldiers' rations."

When Shen Ruolan heard this, she couldn't help but feel heavy-hearted. It seemed that except for those high-ranking officials, no one had an easy life!

However, even though life was hard now, it was better than being trapped in the palace. Shen Ruolan thanked the old man and left with everyone.

On other streets, Li Heng looked at the desolate Cang Ling City and whispered to his master: "Master, Bei Ming is so desolate now. In my opinion, it is the best time to send troops."

In order to find Mr. Shen, the master and servant traveled to all the surrounding countries. However, Bei Ming was the worst hit by the disaster at the moment. If they sent troops to attack at this time, they would definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

Mu Jinxuan listened to his subordinates, he looked up and took a look at the entire Cang Ling City, and said to him: "We can discuss this matter after I get better."

Mu Jinxuan has not yet figured out Shen Ruolan's background. He will not easily take action against Bei Ming until his illness is cured.

Li Heng listened to his master's words and, considering his illness, nodded and said nothing more.

An hour later, Ji Han came back to Shen Ruolan and said, "Master, I have found several places. One of them is in Nanfeng Village. I heard that the garrison there is free to come and go. The disadvantage is that people from Xia Country will come and steal from time to time. The rent is not cheap either. Not to mention the remoteness of the place, it costs at least one or two taels of silver a month."

"What about the other places?" Shen Ruolan was silent for a moment and asked Ji Han.

Ji Han said truthfully: "The other places are not far from Cang Ling City and are under the jurisdiction of the garrison. Their safety is guaranteed, but it is very troublesome to enter and exit."

Shen Ruolan compared the two and said to Ji Han, "In that case, let's choose the one outside."

Her target was that no-man's land. Since it was difficult to enter and exit the place guarded by the military, she decided to go outside.

"Yes, Master." After Ji Han finished speaking, he continued to ask Shen Ruolan: "Master, it will take another day to reach Wainanfeng Village. Should we set off now or..."

Shen Ruolan interrupted him without thinking and said, "Let's find an inn to stay in first, then buy some bedding, and set off early tomorrow morning."

"Yes," Ji Han said, and hurriedly took the lead to find an inn.

At night, Shen Ruolan and the others were in the inn. After they washed up, Li Heng couldn't wait to come over and ask, "Miss, we have arrived in Cangling City. When will you help my master treat his illness?"

After Shen Ruolan heard Li Heng's question, she hesitated for a moment and said to him, "Wait two days."

She hasn't settled down yet and doesn't have time to help him with his treatment.

"Okay, then we'll look for the girl again in two days." When Li Heng heard that it would take another two days, he turned around and left.

After Li Heng left, Ji Ning stepped forward and looked at his master with admiration, saying, "Master, I didn't expect you to be a doctor. You are really amazing."

Half a month ago, when she learned that her master was a girl, she was shocked for a long time. Half a month later, when she learned that her master was also a doctor with good medical skills, she admired her very much in her heart.

Judging from her master's appearance, she should be about the same age as me. I didn't expect that she is so capable at such a young age. It's really amazing.

Shen Ruolan smiled at her and asked, "Is everyone ready for dinner?"

In order to save money, Shen Ruolan asked her own people to cook. Although the food was a little worse, it was good enough to fill her stomach.

Ji Ning smiled and nodded at Shen Ruolan, "It's ready. Aunt Liu asked me to come and ask you to eat."

"Let's go." After hearing that dinner was ready, Shen Ruolan walked towards the lobby of the inn.

In the lobby of the inn, Aunt Liu and the others had already distributed the food. The meal was wild vegetable porridge as usual, but Shen Ruolan had an extra small cake than everyone else.

Shen Ruolan came to the table and sat down, saying to everyone: "Everyone is tired after a day, please sit down and eat."

"Yes, master." After everyone finished speaking, they all sat down hurriedly. After Shen Ruolan started eating, everyone picked up their bowls and started eating.

In another inn, Li Heng said to his master: "Master, I found that this young doctor's behavior is very strange. She tried her best to lead the refugees to Cangling City, but she doesn't live in the city. What do you think she wants to do?"

He sent people to follow Ji Han all the way during the day, and the conversation between Ji Han and Shen Ruolan was naturally overheard by his people.

Mu Jinxuan, who was eating, heard what his subordinate said. He paused and asked him, "She doesn't live in the city?"

Li Heng said: "Yes, not only does she not live in the city, she also does not live within the jurisdiction of the garrison."

The geographical location of Cangling City and the border of Xia State is somewhat special. There is a river between the two countries, and many common people from both countries live on both sides of the river. In order not to disturb the normal lives of the common people, the garrisons of the two countries retreated nearly a hundred miles to garrison.

Mu Jinxuan pondered for a moment and said to his subordinates: "This is all her personal matter, no need to pay attention to it."

He just wanted her to cure his illness and not pose any threat to him. Everything else had nothing to do with him.

Thinking of the irrelevance, Mu Jinxuan suddenly asked his subordinates, "By the way, how are you doing with the things I asked you to find out? Does the Shen family in Yaowang Valley have a daughter who is stranded outside?"

When Li Heng heard his master asking about Medicine King Valley, he frowned and told him truthfully, "Master, the news from the front said that except for the eldest daughter of the Shen family, Shen Die, who was killed in a landslide on the road five years ago, there are no other girls from the Shen family in Medicine King Valley."

Shen Ruolan's identity gave Li Heng a headache. He had never failed in his intelligence gathering, but now he was at a loss as to what to do about Shen Ruolan's identity.

"Since we can't find it, let's not check it anymore." After Mu Jinxuan finished speaking, he lowered his head and concentrated on eating.

"Yes," Li Heng replied with his head down.

The next day, after Shen Ruolan and her group had breakfast, she left two people in the city to wait for the refugees who would come later. Then she found the dental clinic she had inquired about the day before, paid the rent, took the key and walked out of the city.

Fortunately, Nanfeng Village is not far from Cangling City, and they finally arrived before dark.

As soon as they entered the village, they attracted a lot of attention. One of them was an elderly man. He looked at Shen Ruolan and the others with a wary look on his face and asked, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Shen Ruolan took out the key from her bosom and smiled at the old man, "Uncle, we came here from Cangling City to rent a house. We will be neighbors from now on. We are new here, so please take care of us."

The old man was relieved to hear that they came from Cangling City. As long as they were not from the other side of the river, it would be fine. He looked at Shen Ruolan and the others in silence for a while, then asked, "Whose house did you rent?"
