Chapter 303: Punishment
Since then, the eldest mother has been wary of many things, even the neighbors won't tell them, and when they go out, they just buy vegetables and farm, and Shen Ruogu and the others stay in the cellar and the house all day long, and don't go anywhere.
They were almost found several times, and several people have been tortured for the past three days. is really ruthless, and he refuses to let go of anything, but he is also putting pressure on him because of Qin Lingxiao.
The charter over there has already burned eyebrows, and the three-day deadline is coming, and the people sent out can't find their slightest figure one after another.
A lot of energy and money were spent, and Qin Lingxiao was staring at his actions, and he didn't dare to slack off, could it be that this Shen Ruogu really had wings? He was really afraid that Shen Ruogu would escape before the city was closed... That's really hard.
When the time came, Qin Lingxiao still hadn't received a little good news from the charter, the three-day deadline had arrived, and the charter had consciously come to Qin Lingxiao.
"Weichen see the emperor!" There were only two people left talking in the main hall, and the charter was like a drum, for fear that Qin Lingxiao would send him directly to see the king of Hades as soon as he got angry.
"The three-day deadline has arrived, what do I want?" Qin Lingxiao didn't want to say anything inconsequential, he just wanted to get useful results.
Although he knew that he couldn't avoid it, he just focused on thinking about how he said it and being less punished, "Back to the emperor, the ministers are incompetent, and they are not... Catch Shen Ruogu and the others..."
There was silence in the hall for an instant, and breathing was faintly audible. Qin Lingxiao grabbed the wooden stake and grinding disc on the side and threw them at the charter, and the charter instantly turned pale and hurriedly kowtowed.
"Do you want to see your useless subordinate, hug her and cry that it's useless!" Qin Lingxiao waved his sleeves, his face expressionless.
"The emperor spares his life, the minister's words are true, then Shen Ruogu is very likely to have escaped before closing the city gate, so otherwise she can't be found after such an investigation for three days, and she has no relatives in Ulan, and no one can help her..."
Frightened and sweating profusely, Qin Lingxiao hurriedly explained loudly, Qin Lingxiao coldly sarcastic, "If you make excuses for yourself again, I don't believe that Shen Ruogu has really become a god." ”
In fact, if he could, Qin Lingxiao would never open the city gate and let anyone go, and would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go. But as time goes by, it is inevitable that there will be rumors.
"The minister is really incompetent! Ask the emperor to keep his ministers for this cheap life, you can punish it no matter what! "The charter really didn't want to lose his life because of this kind of mistake, so he had to beg bitterly.
Qin Lingxiao didn't have so much heart to go around the bend with him, and killing the charter couldn't solve the hatred. He simply let him go, "Punish you for one year, and you must not use soldiers at will!" ”
In fact, this kind of punishment is nothing to the charter, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, his kneeling legs had long been unconscious, and he thanked again and again, "The emperor is wise..."
After going back, the charter was afraid that rumors would spread in the city, and it would be difficult to control it at that time, so he followed Qin Lingxiao's order to unlock the checkpoints and officers in the city one by one, and retreated the garrison guards in waves.
For a while, the people were puzzled, and it was not clear that the city was locked at the beginning, and now it has only been three days since the city was opened, so people have to talk about this absurd action.
The eldest lady was listening to their conversation, and as soon as she heard that the guards would be removed after a while, she hurriedly finished buying things and rushed back home.
Shen Ruogu saw the eldest lady hurrying over and handed her a notice. "Miss Shen, this time they are finally willing to open the city, you guys prepare for some time, dress up in disguise and go out of the city with me."
Shen Ruogu's Herong Xiao looked at this notice, first surprised and then delighted, and smiled happily, "Auntie, is this true?!" The charter is willing to open the gates! ”
"But what if it's a trap he set on purpose?" Although the side was also excited by this news, they couldn't help but doubt the authenticity of this.
The eldest lady suddenly remembered something and explained, "Hey, don't worry about this, I've already found out, it was ordered by the emperor, and I heard that the emperor imposed a heavy penalty on the regulations, and a year's worth of money was handed over!" ”
Shen Ruogu, who heard these news, finally saw the light in his heart, and tears of excitement flashed in his eyes, "After so many days, I can finally see the light, aunt, I still want to thank you for your help!" ”
She raised her head and was grateful to her eldest mother, only their family was willing to save themselves at the most critical time, and they still had no regrets.
When she was seriously wounded that day, the people she brought with her were completely wiped out, and the blood on the field is still shocking. In despair, it was they who saved themselves without saying a word.
Rong Xiao didn't expect such an ending, he would be able to get out of the city soon, and he still needed to be very vigilant in such a period, otherwise a moment of negligence would lead to an irreparable situation.
Shen Ruogu asked the eldest lady to do her some favors, and brought a letter to her to separate the hands, asking them to go out first and not suffer themselves, and then they arrived with the others.
And set a place to meet, in the last period of time, Shen Ruogu and Nuo'er said a lot about Qin Lingxiao, not surprisingly, she would not praise Qin Lingxiao, what happened was real and hateful.
In the end, he left some silver and valuable things to the eldest lady's family, so that they did not have to escort them out of the city, and since the guards had been lifted, it proved that there was no danger.
The eldest lady was also stubborn, but Shen Ruogu didn't say much, Shen Ruogu also smiled, didn't bother, and hurriedly set off with Rong Xiao.
"Miss Shen, you still have to be cautious at this time, in case the charter still sends eyes to keep an eye on us, it will not be easy to do." Rong Xiao followed behind Shen Ruogu, vigilant about the surrounding situation.
"So much has happened in Ulan in just a few days, it is estimated that he can't digest it at all, and he was hit by Qin Lingxiao, maybe he thought that we would have escaped a long time ago, otherwise we wouldn't have withdrawn so quickly, rest assured that I will have something to do when I go out."
Although Shen Ruogu was also worried about what he said, it was not unreasonable, seeing that there were more and more people going out of the city in front of her, she felt more down-to-earth.
Although the city gate is no longer locked, the guards guarding the city gate will not be withdrawn, and the remaining strength has not yet dissipated. Shen Ruogu immediately pasted a gray stain on the clouds, making it difficult for them to identify it.
He and Rong Xiao walked in front of them and pretended not to be all the way, and the people who guarded them were no longer the ones who stopped them a few days ago. So it's inevitable to go out this time.
The group looked calm, not caring about anyone watching them here, and the guards also looked at them for a long time, Shen Ruogu realized that things were not so easy.
The guards let them go without much thought, and as soon as Shen Ruogu and Rong Xiao left the city, they waited for the clouds and the others to come out and immediately went to join the other people.
