Pampered ghost concubine is respected

Chapter 269 Returning to the County City (2)
Murong Liao looked at the little raccoon on the bed, and was about to ask a question, but the little raccoon suddenly said in surprise, "Elder-in-law, are you sure that the volcanic red lotus can restore my body?"

Eunuch Mu pursed his lips, seemingly hesitating, "Although it can't be completely recovered, it has a miraculous effect."

The little raccoon murmured, with tears in his eyes, "Qizhenhui once found a volcanic red lotus, but unfortunately I didn't know its medicinal properties at that time, and I just regarded it as tasteless and didn't pay attention to it. Missed it. It seems that it was destined to be so."

Crystal clear teardrops fell down the corners of the little raccoon's eyes, pattering and pattering on the gorgeous quilt.

It really looks like its owner, just like Xiaoru, really good at pretending!Murong Lin held back his joking words, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Murong Liao's doubtful expression, and a smile bloomed on the corner of his mouth like an epiphyllum.

In the afternoon, Yan Rusi and the others arrived at the border of Jinzhou.Due to the rush of time, Yan Rusi didn't plan to go to Jinzhou to stay overnight, but wanted to travel both nights and nights, she was really in a hurry.The joy she felt when she left has completely dissipated, and the more vulnerable she is, the more she misses Murong Lin.

Yunyin suddenly reined in the reins, stopped the horse, and turned her head towards Yulin in a daze.

Yan Rusi knew that Yunyin definitely couldn't let Xue Yufeng and the others go.

"Yunyin, why don't Zi Qi and I go back to the county town and let Bai Muyun accompany you to Yulin Town for a walk?"

Yunyin turned her head, smiled lightly, and said, "No need, let's continue on our way!" She had searched all over the palace, but she still didn't see the bodies of Xue Yufeng and the two children. She still had a glimmer of hope in the burnt ruins, but in the end she had to accept the fact that their bones were gone.

Those cruel men in black didn't even spare women and children, they were nothing like beasts!Yunyin gritted her teeth and clasped her hands vigorously, with a look of sadness and hatred in her eyes.

I can't help Xue Yufeng and the others bury their corpses. I hope that You Ming will not blame her. After returning to the palace, I will go to You Ming's grave and make a tomb for them. I hope they will not be lonely ghosts.

Yunyin sighed secretly, shouted loudly, and urged the horse to hurry on the road.

Xue Yufeng and the child were indeed innocent, especially those two children who affectionately called her "beautiful sister", so cute and innocent, but they died before their lives bloomed.Alas, Yunyin must be feeling very sad!

The corners of Yan Rusi's mouth twitched a few times, wanting to say some comforting words, but even with thousands of crowning words, she felt too pale.She thought to herself, if she should let Yunyin and Youming meet after her body recovers.

Another night of light sleep, excited, excited, apprehensive... mixed feelings, tossing and turning, always unable to fall asleep.It wasn't until the fourth watch that Murong Lin narrowed his eyes for a while.

At five o'clock, Murong Lin woke up suddenly.In a short time, he had a dream. In the dream, Yan Rusi was covered in blood, lying in a state of death, no matter how much he called, he did not open his eyes.

How could you have such a dream?Murong Lin broke out in a cold sweat from fright, and felt even more anxious and flustered.

No, no, Xiaoru will be back today!Murong Lin shook his head, silently comforting himself, with a dry smile on his face, but his heart was still a little hairy.

After hesitating for a while, the more he thought about it, the more irritable he became, Murong Lin simply got out of bed and got dressed.

Walking outside, the guide is yawning again and again.

Seeing Murong Lin's solemn expression, he quickly covered his mouth, half hid the sleepiness in his throat, pushed it down his abdomen, and ran forward to serve him.

"Morning, my lord!" After what happened yesterday, the guide became more cautious and respectful.

Murong Lin glanced at him, said "hmm" in a low voice, and didn't have the heart to think about the changes in leading the way.

"What time is it?" Today is a ten-day appointment. Xiao Ru said that she will definitely come back, and she will not miss the appointment.

"Go back to the lord, it's just five o'clock." Why is the lord so impatient today?Is there something to do?

Leading the way thought about whether he should ask, but thinking of the scene where Murong Lin got angry yesterday, he swallowed the words that came to the tip of his tongue.He is a servant, as long as he does his job as a servant, don't ask about the master's affairs, and don't take care of them, this is the way to save your life.

"It's only five o'clock?" Murong Lin frowned, why did the time pass so slowly?

"It's true that it's just five o'clock." Murong Lin's raised voice made the guide suddenly nervous, and hurriedly echoed in a low voice.

He raised his eyes and looked out the window, it was pitch black, except for candlelight, there was no light at all, it was indeed still early!Murong Lin smiled self-deprecatingly, he was really in a hurry, Xiao Ru might not come back until noon.

Glancing at the guide who was trying to resist the drowsiness, Murong Lin said flatly, "Go back to your room and rest."

Leading the way, he widened his eyes and said anxiously, "The servant is still here to serve the prince."

Seeing that the guide looked as if he was facing a formidable enemy, Murong Lin couldn't help laughing, and said lightly, "It's okay, I'll go to the study to read a book first, I don't need to be waited on, it's still early, you can just go back to your room and rest."

Knowing that the study room is a forbidden place, no one except the prince and concubine is allowed to enter, and seeing that there is no trace of reproach on Murong Lin's face, the guide feels relieved, but still dare not leave.

Murong Lin just pretended that the guide didn't exist, and walked towards the study.Standing in place for a while, the surroundings were quiet, no sound could be heard, the drowsiness hit like a storm, the guide couldn't bear it anymore, and hurried back to the room to catch up on sleep.

"What's in the carriage?" the city gate guard asked sternly.

An old man in his fifties hurriedly clasped his hands, hehe said authentically, "Snacks and dry goods produced in the fields, go to the city to exchange some money to live on."

Behind the old man was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, with delicate features, fair and clean, timid and cowardly appearance, he could tell at a glance that he was disguised as a man.

The guard shouted, "Open it and have a look."

The old man sighed helplessly, and struggled to open the boxes that were packed immediately one by one.

With a sword in hand, the guard rummaged through the inside, messing up the packed bags.

The ordinary people who stopped behind couldn't see it, and shouted dissatisfiedly, "How could there be such an inspection before?"

Then a crowd of people joined in, blaming the guards for holding chicken feathers as arrows.

The guard suddenly became angry and yelled, "What are you arguing about? This is an order from the superior. If you continue arguing, be careful and arrest you all."

The common people immediately fell silent and did not dare to speak again.

After checking that there was nothing suspicious, the guard said impatiently, "Let's go, let's go."

The old man breathed a sigh of relief, and when he was about to pull the carriage away, another guard suddenly shouted, "Wait a minute!"

"My lord, what else is there?" The old man bowed his head and looked honest.

The guard pulled out the little boy behind the old man and looked at him carefully.
