The four black balls rolled along, resting frequently. The two brothers were alright, but Granny Rong was old and Tang Rui was too young, so rolling became increasingly difficult for them.

Perhaps due to its size, Tang Rui rolled a little slower when passing an intersection, and was spotted by a team of night patrol guards.

In a panic, Tang Rui hugged herself, turned her back, and remained motionless, repeatedly chanting in her mind: I am a stone, I am a stone, I am a stone.

The night patrol captain's eye twitched. Remembering the prince's instructions, he silently turned around and said, "There's nothing going on here. Go check over there."

Tang Rui was taken aback upon hearing this.

Are the guards in the Prince's mansion really that blind?

"Princess, let's go! The outermost abandoned courtyard is just ahead!"

Once Da Ge spoke, Tang Rui lost all interest in thinking. She took a deep breath, rolled around several times, and finally reached her destination.

Once you climb over this courtyard, you'll be outside the Prince's Mansion.

With the help of Da Ge and Er Ge, Tang Rui and Rong Momo successfully escaped.

Rong Momo rubbed her old back.

Thank goodness, when the princess came to serve the young princess, the princess did not say that there would be any danger to her life!

It looks like her old arms and legs are about to fall apart.

"Princess, your servant has prepared a carriage. Please get in!" Erge very considerately led a carriage over from the shadows.

Tang Rui: "You're on the right track! I'll give you a bonus at the end of the month."

"Thank you, Princess!" Erge had never heard of the word "bonus" before, but he roughly understood what it meant. His expression brightened, and he carried Tang Rui to the carriage.

Da Ge also helped Rong Momo into the carriage.

The two brothers drove the carriage away at breakneck speed.

There was no curfew in the capital, but after nightfall, the streets were almost deserted, and the city gates were closed.

Whether someone had spoken to the soldiers guarding the city beforehand or it was because it was a carriage from the Prince Li's residence, Tang Rui's journey out of the city was exceptionally smooth.

Children's brains don't think that much; they just feel very lucky that their first escape went so smoothly, and that they were born to do this.

Soon, they arrived at the mass grave.

Summer has just ended, but the heat still lingers.

Upon entering the mass grave area, an indescribable stench swept over us.

Tang Rui, who had just stepped out of the carriage and wanted to breathe in some fresh air, muttered, "Yue..."

"Princess, please put your mask back on!"

Rong Momo tried to persuade her kindly, but in her heart she thought: "She doesn't wear it when she should, and she insists on wearing it when she shouldn't."

Why does it feel like my princess's... well-behaved, cute, and cleverness are all just an illusion?

Tang Rui belatedly realized what was happening, quickly put on her mask, and picked up the new small pottery jar and hoe: "Alright, let's get to work!"

"Yes!" The two brothers also raised their large hoes.

Rong Momo's eye twitched: "I'll keep watch for you!"

She dared not face those poisonous snakes, insects, and corpses.

Tang Rui didn't force her, and led the two brothers into the mass grave in a swaggering manner.

This place truly lives up to its reputation as a paradise for venomous snakes and insects; Tang Rui found a fake scorpion not long after she entered.

Tang Rui caught the fake scorpion and threw it into the pottery jar. Following the direction the fake scorpion had come from, she found a disfigured corpse.

Da Ge and Er Ge almost threw up, but Tang Rui didn't seem to mind at all. She even gave them a heads-up: "Be careful, these fake scorpions like to hide in corpses. Don't get pinched by them, or you'll get poisoned. It's best to use chopsticks to pick them up. Be careful, and watch out for poisonous snakes."

The faces of the large and second-largest individuals were ashen.

They felt like throwing up!

But Tang Rui had given the orders, so the two of them had no choice but to bite the bullet and dismember the body.

Surprisingly, they didn't expect that so many poisonous creatures would use corpses as their nests.

It seems that the expense of a coffin cannot be spared; they certainly don't want their bodies to become a breeding ground for poisonous creatures after they die.

Unbeknownst to the two brothers, their thinking had gradually become distorted and was developing in a bizarre direction after meeting Tang Rui.

What normal young man would be thinking about his coffin after he dies at this point?

Just then, a terrified voice rang out: "Help...help! Someone's eating corpses!"

Tang Rui: "?"

"Oh no!" Da Ge scooped up Tang Rui and ran away, while Er Ge carried Rong Mama and followed.

The four quickly got into the carriage and sped away.

Soon, torches were lit in the mass grave, and the crowd vomited as they looked at the bloody scene of dismemberment.

...

On the carriage!

Tang Rui stared at the several pottery jars like treasures, rubbing her little hands together, her eyes sparkling.

I've gained a lot from this trip!

She can arrange all sorts of Gu poisons.

Even Rong Momo was frightened by her appearance. Anyone who didn't know better would think that their princess wanted these things to eat.

And the smell in the carriage…

"Yue..." No, Rong Momo felt like throwing up just thinking about it.

The first half of my life was ordinary and simple, but the second half was spectacular and I ended up in a grave.

She felt that she had used up all the excitement she had ever experienced in her life today.

"Princess, stop looking!" Anyway, she didn't believe Tang Rui could concoct Gu poison.

Tang Rui still cared for the elderly. Knowing that Rong Momo had risked her life to accompany the woman tonight, making a great sacrifice and being quite frightened, she immediately looked away and gave her a sweet smile: "Rong Momo, thank you. No one has ever spoiled me like you have since I was born. No matter how outrageous the thing is, you will stay with me."

Oh my god!

foul!

Who told you to suddenly act cute!

All of Rong Momo's dissatisfaction vanished instantly, and she even felt a little sorry for her princess, declaring as if making a vow: "Princess, this old servant will stay with you until the day she dies."

"Granny is so kind. Besides my father, mother, and concubines, you are number one in my heart."

"..." Come and listen, come and see.

The adorable little dumpling clenched its tiny fists, its big, watery eyes sparkling as it looked at you, speaking from the bottom of its heart with utmost sincerity.

Who could stand this?

Rong Momo affectionately rubbed her head: "It is my honor to be needed by the princess."

"It's my honor to meet you, Granny. The car smells bad, so I opened the curtain so you can get some fresh air."

All I can say is that if Tang Rui wanted to coax someone, probably no one in the world could resist!

At least Rong Momo couldn't withstand it.

However, Tang Rui had only lifted the carriage curtain a short while before she saw a familiar silhouette in the alley.

Tang Rui exclaimed in surprise, "That just now...it looked like Mother!"

What?

Rong Momo was stunned.

Tang Rui quickly told Da Ge and Er Ge to stop the car.

...

In the alley!

Princess Li, wearing a black cloak, glared fiercely at the man before her: "He Yaozu, how could it be you? Where is Qin Zhirou?"

The man had a lewd smile, and his eyes were black and blue, clearly indicating excessive indulgence in sex.

His dark green robe was loose and somewhat worn, which was extremely incongruous with his physique.

"Cousin, I'm your cousin, how can you call me by my name like that!" He Yaozu said, closing his fan and lifting Princess Li's chin.

Princess Li took a step back, her disgust undisguised: "You are Qin Zhirou's cousin, not mine. Enough nonsense. Where is Qin Zhirou? In her reply to me, she said that as long as I come here, she will return my mother's dowry to me."
