The Marquis of the Southern Kingdom looked up and saw Bai Yin standing at the door.
He clenched his fist and pounded on the door.
It was very powerful.
His knuckles were bleeding!
He had heard the conversation in the room just now.
He asked, "What do you mean you can't find him? What do you mean his life is worse than death? "
His voice was trembling.
It was difficult for him to conceal his worry.
The Marquis of the Southern Kingdom frowned and signaled the green-clothed man with his eyes.
Let him go first.
After the man left, the Marquis of the Southern Kingdom said with a solemn expression, "Although we can't find him, at least it's not bad news!"
"Then … what do we do now?"
"He must still be in the Prince's Mansion. I will think of another way. In short, I want to see him if he's alive, and I want to see his corpse if he's dead."
Ugh!
Bai Yin's chest tightened and she immediately said, "At least I've been to the Second Prince's Mansion before. I know the layout of the place better. I'll go in and look for him tonight."
"No!" The Marquis of the Southern Kingdom stopped him. "You can't interfere in this matter! It's already dawn. You have to leave the city as soon as possible. "
Bai Yin panicked, "How can I leave now? He did it to cover for me. I won't leave until I see him. "
Steadfast!
The Marquis of the Southern Kingdom had a serious expression on his face. "Ah Jin, if Lian Que knows that you're risking your life for him, he would rather die than drag you down with him! If something happens to you, what do you want me to do? "
"…"
"I promise you, I won't let anything happen to him! Go back to the bamboo house and wait for my news. "
Bai Yin's emotions gradually calmed down.
He suppressed the impulse.
He promised to leave the city first!
But …
The Marquis of the Southern Kingdom said with concern, "The city gate is heavily guarded. You can't just go out like this."
Hmm?
Soon, the Marquis of the Southern Kingdom found him a set of ordinary linen clothes to change into.
He disguised himself!
Then, she stuffed him with an old and yellowed bundle!
It was as if he had changed his appearance.
The dagger that he carried with him was hidden in the clothes around his waist.
Never leave his side.
"If the guards ask, just say that I came to Gaoding to visit my relatives and was about to go back."
Once everything was settled, Bai Yin left the manor through the back door.
He rushed to the city gate. Because of the collapse of the mountain outside the city, coupled with the fact that there were assassins in the city, there were fewer people leaving the city. As a result, there were fewer merchants entering the city. The sky had just turned bright. There were very few people entering the city and only a few people leaving the city.
There was only Bai Yin.
The guards on duty stopped him.
"Where to?"
"Go home."
"Go home? What kind of custom-made goods do you want? "
"Visiting relatives," Bai Yin answered crisply, her gaze fixed on the ground.
The guard looked at him from head to toe and noticed the bundle he was carrying. "What's inside?"
Bai Yin replied, "A few tattered clothes."
"Open it."
"Sir, you are really a burden."
"Whether it is or not, we'll know once we open it. Hurry up, don't waste time."
Bai Yin unhurriedly untied the bundle.
He was handed over to the guards for inspection.
There were indeed a few tattered clothes and a pair of shoes inside.
There was nothing strange!
The guard returned the bag to him. "Alright, let's go."
"Thank you, Your Excellency." Bai Yin hugged her bundle and hurriedly prepared to leave.
However, he had only taken a few steps when suddenly —
"Wait!"
Ah!
He stopped in his tracks, his back facing the guards.
A guard with a scowl walked up to him. "Turn around."
Bai Yin tightened his grip on the bundle.
He turned around and asked, "What else do you need, Your Excellency?"
The guard pointed at his waist. "What's that on your waist?"
Huh?
There seemed to be something pressing against the bundle of clothes around his waist!
There was a dagger hidden inside!
He said calmly, "It's nothing. It's just an ordinary object."
"An ordinary object? What is it? Let me see. "
Bai Yin clenched his fists and slowly reached for his waist.
He was about to grab the dagger.
A trace of viciousness and murderous intent appeared in his drooping eyes.
He was prepared to use force to escape!
Suddenly —
Thud!
There was a loud noise.
Bai Yin's thoughts were immediately dispelled!
The crowd looked in the direction of the noise and saw a luxurious horse carriage about to leave the city. However, a small box suddenly fell out of the carriage.
The contents of the box fell out as a result.
They were all pieces of paper filled with words!
When they fell out, they were blown everywhere by the cold morning wind.
They flew everywhere!
The coachman quickly pulled on the reins and got off the carriage to pick them up.
The woman inside asked, "What's wrong?"
The coachman answered as he picked them up, "Miss, this box was originally placed on the carriage. I don't know how it fell to the ground, but the contents inside have all flown out." "What?" The woman immediately opened the curtain and looked outside. She saw the contents flying everywhere. She looked anxious, "Ah, these are scriptures that I've been copying for months. I've been waiting for this day to pray at the temple. Why is it so messy?
Hurry up and pick them up. "
"Yes, yes, yes. I'll pick them up right away."
"How long will it take you to pick them up by yourself?" The woman's clear eyes suddenly looked at the guards at the city gate and asked for help, "Big Brother Constables, I'll have to trouble you to help me pick them up."
Her voice was soft and gentle.
It was very pleasant!
It made one's heart melt!
The guards at the city gate recognized this woman!
The Second Lady of the Public House, Zhao Er!
Why was she here?
One of the guards immediately showed a flattering smile, "Oh, it's Miss Zhao. Why are you here?" Zhao Er explained, "Two days ago, a few big trees fell outside the city. All the carriages couldn't go on the main road. Today, they said that the road was cleared, so I planned to go to the temple to pray. I wanted to go to the temple early as the sun had just risen. Who knew that this disappointing box would roll off the carriage. The box was filled with scriptures for praying. Now, it's blown everywhere. What should I do? If I lose one, the prayers won't work. At that time … Father will definitely blame me.
Mine. "
She looked so wronged!
Her eyes were filled with tears.
Who wouldn't feel sorry for her pitiful look?
Everyone knew that Zhao Er's father was the Duke of Wang!
Who wouldn't want to cling to him?
When the guards heard this, they naturally rushed to please her.
One by one, they bowed, "Miss Zhao, don't worry. We're coming to help you!" They shouted, "Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, go and pick them up."
Everyone rushed forward to help pick up the scattered scriptures.
The guard who had been examining Bai Yin would not let this opportunity go. He waved his hand impatiently at Bai Yin, "Alright, alright. You should go now."
He then rushed over!
Seeing this, Bai Yin did not stay any longer. She hurried out of the city.
This was to prevent the guard from coming to his senses!
In a short while, the scriptures were tidied up and placed into the box.
The guard then lifted the box onto the carriage.
