It stands to reason that Bolan is a blank sheet of paper, and he does not know the sophistication of people in the mortal world. But for some reason, a voice in her heart told her to look at people and things, and not to be superficial.

She doesn't seem to be very repulsed by this.

After about two incense sticks, the coachman carried Ah Zhen back to the car, gave her a water bladder alone, and threw another water bladder to the rest of the girls, and continued to hurry again with a refreshed face.

Bolan quietly looked at Ah Zhen, her originally bloodless lips were now red and swollen, her eyes were misty, and her face was flushed. Thinking that all this was done by the middle-aged coachman who was five big and three thick, Bolan was a little uncomfortable.

The rest of the girls passed the water bladder and took turns drinking water, not only skipping Ah Zhen, but also ignoring Bolan.

Bolan was straightforward and immediately asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

It was the girl named Ah Xiang who responded to her: "Hmph! You like to eat that dirty thing so much, and you'll always eat her in the future. ”

In my memory, the most energetic person who ridiculed Ah Zhen was this Ah Xiang.

Bolan was disgusted in his heart, and he didn't go around the corner, so he directly counterattacked: "Don't take a dirty word, are you clean?" Which of us is not disgraced, with dirty clothes and a smell of sweat on our bodies? Is there anything I'm sorry for you? Did she hit you? Did she scold you? She doesn't steal, she doesn't rob, she doesn't owe you, why is she scolded by you? I advise you to shut up, next time your mouth is not clean, I am not welcome to you! ”

Ah Xiang was a little stunned for a while, Alan is the most petite of these girls, usually few words, and his temperament is also timid. Unexpectedly, in order to protect Ah Zhen, she said so much in one breath.

It also looks menacing. When he said the last sentence, there was a strange cold light in his eyes, which made Ah Xiang shudder.

It seems that if Ah Xiang says something more, she will really do it.

If she fights alone, Ah Xiang is not afraid of her. Those thin arms and thin legs are not their opponents.

But Ah Xiang has some scruples, afraid that if there is really trouble, the coachman will favor Ah Zhen and Ah Ran. Don't look at Ah Xiang's usual sharp teeth and sharp mouth, she looks like she is not afraid of heaven and earth, but she doesn't dare to fight with the coachman.

"I'm too lazy to bother with you!" After weighing for a moment, Ah Xiang said something viciously, turned her back and stopped talking.

Ah Zhen tugged at Bolan's sleeve at this time, with a faint smile on her face: "Alain, forget it, I'm fine." If you do not dislike it, I will share half of my food with you. ”

On a hot day, Bolan didn't want to bother to speak, nodded and closed her mouth.

For a moment, there was silence in the cage.

Ah Zhen hugged her knees, leaned her head, looked at the yellow earth that was constantly retreating backwards, unchanged, and pulled the corners of her mouth slightly.

She was committed to the coachman who was good enough to be her father, but not for those few bites of food, but because of the truth that the coachman confided in her.

It is true that they will be sent to the palace of Yan Kingdom, but they are not going to be palace maids. They have another place to go, and there is a place to send their lives without returning.

Because Ah Zhen resembles the coachman's deceased wife, the coachman has a heart for her. He assured her that if she was willing to follow him and arrive at the palace, he would plead with the steward to save her.

The coachman had done the errand of bringing the girl to the palace many times, and he sincerely begged for some more benefits, believing that the steward would sell him a favor. He will certainly treat her well, so that she will not have to starve, suffer, and be displaced from now on.

Originally, Ah Zhen didn't want to believe it, but the coachman only said a word, and it was like a basin of cold water on his head, waking her up.

"If you really want to enter the palace as a palace maid, how dare I destroy your innocence?"

The coachman said, "What's more, how can any selected palace maid wear foot cuffs, sit in a cage, and still be a slave from another country?" ”

Yes, that is, these orphan girls with shallow knowledge are unaware of such obvious irrationality, and they are bent on dreaming of entering the palace.

"Don't say it, I'm willing to talk to you." Ah Zhen trembled and rolled down tears.

Either go to the palace to die, or follow the coachman to survive. Ah Zhen chose the latter, even if it looked unbearable, but at least, she would live.

And this car of people who laugh at her and disgrace her is just a dead end.

Thinking about it made her feel much calmer. Turning his head and looking at Alain again, this was the only girl who was willing to speak for her instead of disliking her.

Ah Zhen was moved, and that night she privately discussed with the coachman and asked him if he could save Alan as well.

The coachman refused very simply, saying that leaving Ah Zhen was only eighty percent sure, and it was not foolproof, and he could not make any extraneous branches, and then save others.

Saying this, Ah Zhen was also a little upset, and couldn't help thinking in her mind that if the coachman couldn't keep her, wouldn't she have to go to death together. The idea of saving Alan was also thrown away and never mentioned again.

After traveling for another three days, the carriage arrived outside the gate of the capital of Yan at noon.

Although the girls were dove-shaped and tired, their smiles were unstoppable, and their eyes flashed with a light of hope that was more dazzling than the sun—they had reached the foot of the imperial city, and the palace would be far away?

Sure enough, he is going to get out of the sea of suffering and enter the palace!

The prisoner car drove into the imperial city. The streets are full of traffic, people, and shops, and there is a prosperous scene.

The girls watched excitedly, and Bolan was also fascinated.

She was originally a Bodhi tree spirit, and she was at the beginning of her wisdom, and she knew a lot of things.

When she first came into the world, she saw desolation, endured hunger and thirst, and saw many faces of suffering, and thought that everyone was like this.

When I arrived in the imperial city, I found that some people were dressed decently, some were radiant, and some were living and working in peace and contentment.

Obviously they are the same people, but they are so different! All this puzzled Bolan.

With the clatter of horses' hooves and wheels, the prisoner cart crossed the royal street and stopped outside the majestic vermilion lacquer-colored palace gate.

After a few moments, the palace door slowly opened.

A white-faced, beardless man dressed in a violet embroidered python robe walked out, followed by several guards in soft armor.

The coachman hurriedly caught up, with a black face full of smiles, and kept bending down and saying, "I've seen my father-in-law, I've seen my official." ”

After listening to the coachman's words, the girls were very excited and whispered endlessly—

"There is only a father-in-law in the palace, and we are really going to enter the palace! What a great creation! ”

"My heart that has been hanging all the way can be regarded as letting go. It's not in vain that you've eaten so much! ”

It's a pity that some people are shallow-eyed, greedy for that bit of food and drink, and easily sell themselves. Now that he is no longer a virgin, how can he enter the palace? ”

"No, I'm afraid that the bold coachman won't be able to escape punishment!"

……

The central figure of the topic, Ah Zhen, is indifferent to the criticism in front of him as if he didn't hear it. Her whole mind was tied to the lowly-looking coachman, and she waited anxiously.

The father-in-law was not surprised by the coachman's courtesy, and he didn't raise his eyelids, but only swept his eyes to the car.

The coachman leaned over again, laughed more and more eagerly, and bent his waist lower: "The little one brought eight people over this time, please check it on my father-in-law." ”

After finishing speaking, he turned his back, took out a purse, and stuffed it into his father-in-law's hand.

The father-in-law looked at the coachman and said "um" in a sharp voice.

The coachman carefully examined his expression, and pleaded softly, "There is a woman there, and I hope that the princess will give me a reward for her face." ”
