Chapter 190 189 Only One Step Away

The people in the capital were angry that all the people trapped in the palace by the emperor's guards were burned to death in a fire that took three days and three nights until not even ashes were left. Gradually, rumors of his tyranny spread.

When Xiao Junmo found out that it was Xiao Qingzhi who sent people to set fire to the palace, and that the world was scolding him, how could he feel happy? Moreover, the elixir made his temper become very irritable and easily angered.

Xiao Qingzhi would never have thought that her brother the Emperor would send someone to beat her with a stick, and that the fifty strokes of the stick left her, the eldest princess who had been pampered since childhood, with her skin torn and flesh bruised.

"Waah wah," crying bitterly.

There was hatred in Xiao Qingzhi's eyes.

Gu Hua was standing in a restaurant owned by a royal family. He saw Xiao Qingzhi being carried away in a carriage by guards in a state of embarrassment. His eyes were calm and emotionless, but his face was full of smiles.

Shen Hongwei asked in confusion: "Sister Gu, why didn't we leave immediately after we escaped from the tunnel?"

"This is the capital city, and there are many spies from all sides." Gu Hua's face did not show any fluctuations, but there was a hint of depth in his eyes, and he said softly: "Especially the emperor who is suspicious and secretly sends people to control the entire capital city.

Do you think there is not even a charred corpse in the palace? How could the emperor, who is so suspicious, completely believe that we were all burned to ashes? "

Han Jinyan's eyes widened in surprise, "You mean, there are people waiting for us at the palace gate?"

Everyone else present was also shocked by Gu Hua's words.

Ye An looked at Gu Hua with some admiration as she looked calm. No wonder, when they escaped from the palace tunnel that night, she ordered him to disperse everyone, hide, and leave the capital city.

It turned out to be the case.

No wonder her master could leave so many people to protect her.

……

half a month later.

Mu Yu brought news that the pressure at the city gate had loosened, so Gu Hua decided to take his men and leave the capital.

That day, Ye An brought a woman with extremely ordinary looks who was thrown into the crowd. Her facial features were instantly drowned out and could not be remembered clearly. The woman walked in and followed Ye An to salute her.

Gu Hua motioned for the two to stand up, looked at Ye An, and asked: "What are you doing..."

Ye An cupped his hands and replied, "This is a disguise artist trained by the palace."

Even though Ye An didn't say anything next, Gu Hua knew what he meant.

Then, Gu Hua watched the disguise artist work fiercely, turning all the handsome men and beautiful women into passers-by. He was amazed and stood by, staring at him and blatantly learning from him.

Although I could only learn the basics in a short period of time, I still made some small gains in disguise of facial features.

Watching Shen Hongling gradually transform from a young girl into an old woman with wrinkles on her face, and become an old couple with Han Jinyan, who had disguised himself as a white-haired old man, Shen Hongxuan and Ergui were transformed into a young couple.

Gu Hua was so fascinated by this makeup artist's lifelike skills that she wanted to snatch her from Xiao Junlin.

In fact, she did so.

"Master, may I ask what your name is? Are you short of money?" Gu Hua rubbed his hands and smiled charmingly like the wolf grandmother, saying, "I am willing to pay a high price to hire you. Master, please follow me."

Ye An's eyes widened in surprise...

Master, please come back soon. Someone is trying to steal your girl. Should I stop him or not?

"No." The facial features of the woman were dressed up as ordinary ones, her eyes were bright and lively, and there was a smile on the corner of her mouth. "I don't know how much money the Gu family master can give. If it's less, I can't betray my master."

Gu Hua was stunned.

He smiled and said, "Interesting."

So if the money is high, it's not impossible for her to kick her master Xiao Junlin out and go with her.

"Just ask for as much as you want." Gu Hua patted his chest and said generously, as if he was a local tycoon. "I want to eat delicious food every meal, and the monthly salary cannot be less than..." The woman with beautiful eyes, but ordinary-looking, stretched out a finger, as if dissatisfied, gritted her teeth, and stretched out two slender white fingers, "At least three hundred taels!!"

Looking at his attitude, Gu Hua thought he could ask for a much higher price, but it turned out to be just this.

Watching the three little ones transform from their original fair and rosy faces into children from ordinary families, Kang Kang was even dressed up as a little beggar.

Originally, the three siblings had very similar facial features, but after Long Ba used his disguise technique and personally taught them how to walk, the three children soon not only looked different, but also had great differences in height, weight, and body shape due to the different walking postures they were taught.

Now even Gu Hua, their biological mother, is a little reluctant to recognize that they are triplets.

"Did I give birth to such an ugly cub?"

Gu Hua pinched Huanhuan's yellow little face and said jokingly.

"Mom is ugly." The beauty-loving little girl pouted and said unhappily, "The baby is not ugly, but my whole family is ugly."

Gu Hua and others laughed out loud because of Huanhuan.

Kang Kang pulled Huan Huan's messy hair and corrected her, "Sister! Mother's whole family includes you."

"Second brother is bad, second brother is the worst." Huanhuan refused to admit that she had scolded herself. She pulled her eldest brother An'an's sleeve and complained in a coquettish voice, seeking comfort.

I saw Gu Hua being entangled by several children.

Ye An gently moved closer, "Long Ba, you disguised yourself as a woman to get free food and drinks, and you tricked this person into..."

Ye An glanced at Gu Hua again, and then at the master of disguise who had already extended his magic hand to other people, and said with a bit of gloating and teasing, "Aren't you afraid that I will come back and peel off your skin?"

During this period of time, he has seen how much his master values ​​this mother and son. He may not even realize it himself. If he knew that Long Ba was easily abducted by Gu Jiazhu, he would have really skinned him alive.

Gu Hua suddenly looked up at the woman who was smiling at him...

wrong.

He was a man who disguised himself as a woman, and even she couldn't see the flaw.

Gu Hua sincerely gave a thumbs up, "Awesome."

Without even leaning on the wall, Gu Hua was impressed by the man's perfect disguise skills.

All staff members have changed their clothes and faces.

Gu Hua did not take people to the city gate immediately, but just asked everyone to wait.

Morning is the time when inspections are most stringent.

Gu Hua waited until noon. The sun was getting hotter and hotter. The people guarding the city gates and conducting searches were gradually becoming tired. Only then did he let the people who were not targeted by the court go first.

Dispersed group targets are small.

The people brought by Gu Hua and some people left by Ye An and Xiao Junlin for their mother and son, after changing their appearance, walked out of the city gate one after another.

Looking at Ergui and Shen Hongwei pretending to be a couple, bickering as they walked, they successfully carried the crying Huanhuan out on their backs.

Then Ye An and others took the carriage to escort the young master of the family and went out of the city to pray for his sick mother. Perhaps there were people from the palace among the people guarding the city gate.

The man took the silver that Ye An stuffed over and said something. The people guarding the city gate and the soldiers sent to search all stepped forward to take a look as a matter of routine. Then Ye An took the eldest son An An out in a swagger.

Until the beggar woman Gu Hua, who had a mole on the corner of her mouth and a hair growing on the mole, was brought along a little beggar and was briefly searched by the guards.

About to leave the city.

Suddenly someone shouted from behind: "Close the city gate..."
