The Dark and Foolish King: The Fierce and Crazy Concubine Has Infinite Strength

When Lu Yanluo saw this scene from afar, she felt as if her heart was thrown into a frying pan, and the pain made her eyes red.

She clenched her fists, tried her best to suppress the urge to rush forward, and followed Xiao Ye as she walked towards them step by step.

Xiao Ye Zi was a smart kid. He stepped forward and greeted the officers and soldiers enthusiastically.

While introducing them to Lu Yanluo's fake life story, he took out some silver and gave it to everyone, asking them to take good care of Lu Yanluo on the way.

Lu Yanluo didn't hear a word they said. She stared at Su Yu with her eyes fixed on him, her brows twisted into a knot. The pain in her eyes was self-evident.

Fortunately, Su Yu didn't care about their situation at all. He looked into the distance expressionlessly and didn't even look at her.

"Brothers, let's make this clear. My cousin has a miserable life and this is his first time traveling far away. I'm sorry to trouble you to take good care of him along the way."

As Xiao Ye Zi spoke, he pulled Lu Yanluo in front of them and said to her, "Cousin, the journey is long and you are weak. You have to rely on these officials to take care of you. Say hello to them."

Lu Yanluo then withdrew her gaze from Su Yu and cooperated with him in bowing to the group of officers and soldiers. She wanted to speak, but then she thought of something and kept silent.

The officers and soldiers weighed the heavy silver in their hands, and the unhappiness of waiting for a long time disappeared. They looked at her and teased her, "This man is thin and small, with a burn on his face, and he is also mute. Why would you let him serve as an official?"

Xiao Ye immediately smiled and explained, "Well, his family is very poor and can barely make ends meet, so he had no choice but to come to the capital to seek refuge with me.

"Although I have a place in the palace, the palace is not short of manpower at the moment. I have no choice but to arrange him to work in the Ministry of Justice, if for no other reason, I just hope he can earn a living."

As if Xiao Ye felt his sincerity was not enough, he took out his purse and handed it to the leader, "This is just a small token of respect. I'll leave my cousin in your care."

Amitabha, these people have to take good care of his princess. If anything goes wrong on the way, even if the emperor doesn't blame him, he will have to commit suicide to sacrifice his life for his master.

The leading soldier took the purse with a smile on his face, patted his chest and assured him that he would take good care of Lu Yanluo, which made Xiao Ye breathe a sigh of relief.

Just like that, under Xiao Ye's worried and reluctant gaze, Lu Yanluo followed the officers and soldiers.

I don’t know whether I will be safe or not this time.

At the city gate, there are people and cars coming and going at a constant flow, and the excessive flow of people makes this place very prosperous.

Not only were there vendors setting up stalls on both sides of the road to do business, but there were also a few ragged beggars who settled here.

They held broken bowls and shook them at passers-by, trying to beg for some money to survive.

Among this group of beggars, two of them looked particularly miserable.

They were women, one old and one young, all dressed in rags, with disheveled hair, their faces stained with dirt, and their bodies emitting a sour and foul odor. How could the word "miserable" describe them?

The most terrifying thing was that there were black holes in the old woman’s eye sockets, and there were no eyeballs.

She wanted to say something nice while begging, but she opened her mouth for a long time but no sound came out. Looking more closely, she had no tongue in her mouth.

Her sleeves and trouser legs were empty, and all her limbs were gone.

Compared to her, the young woman next to her was in much better condition. Although her face was burned beyond recognition and looked hideous, fortunately her limbs and organs were still intact.

With this miserable scene, they won a lot of sympathy. The young woman had half a bowl of copper coins in her bowl, so she would have enough to eat for two days.

Who else could these two miserable people be but Mu Zhengrong and Ye Yuqing?

Mu Zhengrong was speechless. She moved her body and touched Ye Yuqing beside her with her shoulder, as if she wanted to ask something.

Ye Yuqing's eyes were filled with tears, and she said to her sadly, "Mother, there are indeed many people and money here at the city gate. We begged for a lot of copper coins today, enough for us to have two meals of steamed buns."

Mu Zhengrong nodded, and two lines of tears flowed from her dark eyes.

Seeing her crying, Ye Yuqing couldn't bear it anymore and started crying too, making her already ferocious face even more terrifying.

They cried for their humiliation, their unwillingness, their resentment, and their hatred.

They never dreamed that they, who were once high and mighty, would one day fall to this level.

They thought about committing suicide more than once, but they remembered that Ye Feiyan had secretly told them that the drug she fed Ye Baijiang in prison was a fake death drug.

In other words, their pillar of support is still alive.

So they still hold on to a glimmer of hope. They hope to meet Ye Baijiang, hope to get revenge, and hope to return to their old friends.

Lu Yanluo followed the escort team like a little tail until they arrived at the city gate...

The city gate is heavily guarded, with soldiers guarding the city holding portraits and strictly comparing the faces of passers-by.

The carriages and luggage of the travelers were not spared and were all turned upside down before the matter was resolved.

Lu Yanluo wasn't afraid of them searching her luggage, but comparing her face to the portrait...

Soon, Su Yu and the officers and soldiers in front went over in an orderly manner. When it was Lu Yanluo's turn, she was in trouble. She looked at the officers and soldiers around her pitifully and was at a loss for a moment.

Seeing her dawdling, the officer frowned and shouted at her in a hoarse voice: "What are you looking at? Take off your veil! We are trying to capture the prince of Zhujing Kingdom, and we must strictly compare the faces of passers-by to prevent the prince from escaping the city."

Lu Yanluo was at a loss, and was so nervous that sweat broke out on her forehead.

What should she do? She forgot about this step. Xiao Ye told the escorting soldiers that she was disfigured. If they saw her smooth face after taking off the veil, wouldn't that mean all her efforts would be in vain?

Besides, Su Yu is still here. If he finds out that I followed him secretly, he will explode, right?

Seeing her embarrassment, the leader of the soldiers who were traveling with her did not take Xiao Ye's bribe in vain, and stepped forward to smooth things over, saying, "Brothers, he is escorting the prisoner with us.

"I am wearing a veil because my face is burnt and ugly. I am afraid of scaring you brothers, so I refuse to take it off. Please be kind and let him go."

The soldiers guarding the city did not buy his tricks and rejected his request without hesitation, "No! How can we know whether what you said is true or false? If everyone is like him, then what are we guarding?"

"you……"

Lu Yanluo was helpless and could only pat the arm of the soldier she was traveling with, then pointed outside the city gate, signaling them to go first.

The officer was stunned for a moment and guessed, "Are you telling us to go first and wait for you outside the city, and then you can come find us after you have been examined?"

Lu Yanluo nodded repeatedly. Yes, that’s right, that’s what she meant. As long as they were sent away, everything would be easy.

The officers and soldiers who were traveling with her didn't think much about it. They just thought that the little girl in front of them wanted to take off her veil. They were afraid that they would be scared or laugh at her after seeing her hideous face, so they fulfilled her self-esteem.

"Okay, then we'll go first, and you can run faster and catch up with us later."

He agreed and led his men and Su Yu out of the city first.
