Chapter 371
The next day.
Li Yunqing couldn't let others know that she was going to Pingshan County, so she made do with a simple dress, and even smeared her small face. Her black hair was tied up with a ribbon, at first glance she looked like a peasant girl.
Bei Yejun laughed at her for a long time.
She also had to admit that people rely on clothes, Buddha depends on gold clothes, without the blessing of gorgeous clothes, she is just an ordinary girl.
On the other hand, Ruxi disagreed. She felt that even though the adults were dressed in rags, they couldn't change that peerless and refined temperament.
In order not to be discovered by others, after Li Yunqing said goodbye to Bei Yejun, she went out through the back door, carrying a lot of pills given by Mo Chushang to deal with emergencies.
Hidden in the darkness, Cao Bayujin and countless shadows flew past and followed closely behind.
On the empty and uninhabited path, there were only two unremarkable little girls walking all the way to the outside of the imperial capital.
That is naturally Li Yunqing and Ruxi.
Arriving outside the imperial capital city, amidst the boundless green mountains and green waters, ancient trees, and luxuriant branches, Nangong Xun suddenly jumped out——
"My lord, just take me there. I sneaked out early in the morning and have been waiting here for you. Look, the mosquitoes have bitten me a lot!" Nangong Xun showed Li Yunqing pitifully Mosquito pack on arm.
Ruxi looked at him with a look of disgust, and complained: "I said, why did you disappear so early in the morning, so you came here to stay for a while."
Li Yunqing is also helpless, but she has already come out, so let's take it with her.
Anyway, Nangong Xun also grew up among the people, so maybe it will be of some help.
Therefore, she nodded in agreement.
"Wow! Really!" Nangong Xun was incoherent in excitement, almost jumping into the sky, "Your Excellency is so kind, I will be obedient!"
After that, he glanced at Ruxi triumphantly.
Ruxi snorted coldly, turned her head to look at Cao Ba and Yu Jin who were leading the carriage.
It was a dilapidated carriage that looked very ordinary in appearance, and the horse was also rattling. It looked like a weak old horse.
But in fact, the interior of the carriage is quite different, very luxurious and low-key.
As for that horse...it's really an old horse.
After all, they have to pretend to be ordinary poor people. Old horses are also horses, and they can walk to Pingshan County at a leisurely pace. It happened that Li Yunqing was motion sick.
Besides, Pingshan County is not far away, and it is estimated that it will take an hour to get there.
Li Yunqing was helped into the carriage by Ruxi, and when she opened the curtain, she could see the thick cotton wool and down feathers inside the carriage, as well as a fresh scent of mint. There were some fruits and teacups on the low table to ward off Li Yunqing's motion sickness.
She slightly hooked her lips into a smile, Yue Gu was as careful as ever.
After stepping into the carriage, she turned her head and bid farewell to Yu Jin.
Yu Jin just came to see her off, the Emperor's Mansion must be left alone, he needs to guard the Emperor's Mansion, and wait for her return.
"My lord, take care." Yu Jin nodded heavily, his eyes were genuine, and he hoped that Li Yunqing could come back safely.
Li Yunqing turned and walked into the carriage, Ruxi also got into it, Cao Ba was driving in front of the carriage, Nan Gongxun also jumped on it, sat beside Cao Ba, looking around excitedly.
When he was a young man running around in folk alleys before, he especially wished to live in the mansion of a rich family. Unexpectedly, one day his wish came true, and he wanted to go out again.
Nangong Xun sighed faintly, and leaned against the wall of the carriage.
People, there are always such endless desires.
Cao Ba was dressed in coarse cloth as usual, with a wide straw hat covering most of his face, with a piece of unknown grass dangling from the corner of his mouth, exuding a bit of cold aura, driving the car without saying a word, quite like a knight-errant.
Nangong Xun looked at Cao Ba, made a definition in his mind, and then looked at the surrounding woods, suddenly felt bored, so he quietly lifted the curtain of the car and looked inside the car.
The one who came into view was Li Yunqing, she was sitting lazily on the snow-white down feathers, flipping through a book with her fine fingers, her blue hair drooping slightly, even though she was dressed in such an ordinary way, she naturally couldn't conceal the smell of books.
Just as Nangong Xun was about to continue searching for Ruxi, a chestnut suddenly fell on his forehead, and the pain caused him to hold his forehead and exhale with a headache: "Ouch!"
Ruxi looked at him with disgust: "What are you looking at, put down the car curtain."
"Don't be so fierce, I just feel bored and want to chat with you." Nangong Xun stuck to the car wall, blinked his bright eyes, and flattered Ruxi.
Ruxi felt that his heart was really disgusting, and pushed him out mercilessly: "Come on, shut up, and don't disturb the adults."
"Oh..." Nangong Xun replied in disappointment, and continued to look at the woods that came and went, hoping that time would pass quickly so that he could visit Pingshan County.
Speaking of which, there was an explosion there, and I don't know what happened...
Li Yunqing read the book for a while, and her eyes were dazzled by the constantly shaking pages, so she had no choice but to close the book, poured a cup of tea and drank it, and then began to feel drowsy.
The old horse walked slowly, but she didn't feel dizzy, it just took longer.
Slowly, the carriage drove into the boundary of Pingshan County——
Just as the city tower came into view, Nangong Xun dozed off, drooling at the corners of his mouth, and unconsciously leaned on Cao Ba's shoulder.
Cao Ba pulled the corner of his mouth coldly, and pushed him away mercilessly.
"Aiya!" Nangong Xun almost rolled down, hugged the wall of the car fiercely, and saw the towering city tower, and his eyes lit up!
Pingshan County is the most prosperous city among the cities closest to the imperial capital.
There is often a lot of traffic here, and there is an endless stream.
But now, there is still an endless stream of people at the gate of the city, but fewer people go in and more people come out.
Many people walked out of the city gate with their burdens in disgrace, and went in all directions.
Nangong Xun frowned, thinking about it, it's no wonder these people didn't leave after such a catastrophe happened, who knows if such a thing will happen again.
As the carriage slowly entered the city gate, one could see that the normally bustling shops were sparsely populated and depressed.
Nangong Xun suddenly thought of it, and said loudly: "Ruxi, Pingshan County is here!"
Ruxi lifted the curtain of the car to look, and after confirming, she went in and reported to Li Yunqing.
Li Yunqing slightly opened her dazed clear eyes, she had been drowsy for an hour, she was still a little confused about the situation at the moment, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and drank a glass of water before she regained consciousness.
She lifted the curtain of the car and looked out, and it turned out to be Pingshan County.
She has never been here before, but she has always heard that the place is full of flowers, but she never thought that a gunpowder explosion would make this place like this.
Ruxi asked: "My lord, should we find a place to live first, or should we go and see where the explosion happened first?"
Li Yunqing put down the curtain of the carriage lightly, and said softly: "Look for a place to stay first, stop the carriage, and then go and have a look."
Going by horse-drawn carriage is too compelling.
"Okay." Ruxi nodded, turned around and said to Cao Ba outside.
After a while, they chose a very simple inn.
The waiter saw four people dressed in ordinary clothes, they were not guests from a wealthy family, and they were also lacking in interest, so he dismissed them with a few casual words and asked them to park the carriage by themselves.
Cao Ba didn't care, the straw hat lowered his emotions, and he dragged the carriage to the stable without saying a word.
And Nangong Xun was an ordinary person who had lived in the folk for more than ten years. He felt that this kind of treatment was very common, so he followed Ruxi who walked down to discuss where to go.
In fact, he knew that they couldn't really go there to play, they just wanted to find an opportunity to talk to her more.
Ruxi sent him away with a look of disgust, and stuffed the things he needed into the bag, concerned about whether Li Yunqing still got motion sickness.
Li Yunqing shook her head, she was focused on the place where the explosion occurred. After Cao Ba came back, the group went to the place where the gunpowder exploded without stopping for a moment.
According to reports, the place where the explosion occurred was in the north of the city.
When the army carrying gunpowder passed the city wall, there was an explosion.
A large area of the city wall was blown up, and many houses and shops were set ablaze. The casualties have not yet been counted.
Pingshan County is not too big, and it takes a quarter of an hour to walk to the north of the city.
The air is still filled with the smell of gunpowder. The fire that was extinguished yesterday, and now there are still remaining green smoke, floating in the air, as if the sky is full of gloom.
Along the way, you can see some ragged people squatting on the side of the road, some wailing, some not saying a word, the silence is terrifying.
Their clothes were burned, and there were more or less burns on their bodies.
The four of Li Yunqing frowned one after another, with resentment in their eyes, they continued walking slowly.
As we approached, those burnt houses came into view, first the smoked and scorched walls, and then the burnt ruins.
Here are all the fires caused by the explosion of gunpowder, rushing in, and burning down the houses and shops.
Going closer, you can see the city wall that was blown up beyond recognition by gunpowder.
But the soldiers guarding outside stopped them and didn't allow them to go in.
"It's dangerous inside, please leave quickly."
Li Yunqing turned a deaf ear, raised her clear eyes slightly, looked at the ruins in the distance, frowned slightly, with an inexplicable expression.
Seeing that Li Yunqing didn't speak, the other three didn't take a step back either.
The soldier frowned, and when he wanted to repeat it again, he heard a clear female voice: "Let them in."
Li Yunqing raised her eyebrows slightly, came back to her senses, and looked at the sound.
The person who opened the mouth was a woman in royal blue official uniform, about 20 years old, with long hair tied into a solemn bun, with a slim figure and a beautiful face like jade.
The woman exuded a bookish air, as if she had read a lot of poetry and books, and there was a sharp brilliance in those clear and bright eyes.
The woman held some paper and brushes in her hands, as if she was recording something.
She looked at Li Yunqing with surprise, as if she could recognize Li Yunqing even though he was disguised.
