Chapter 218: Separation

The guard pretended to be suspicious and acted with them, and the whole person looked clearly suspicious of Chunhua's sister-in-law's words, but he couldn't find the problem, so he had to follow them personally and send them out of this heavy city gate, he didn't know that he personally let go of the person his master was looking for with all his might.

From beginning to end, Wen Ruyi has been treated as a sick woman nested in Chu Hongze's arms, without saying a word, and the occasional movement is a violent cough.

She gave people the feeling that she was a patient with a severe wind chill, hearing such a strong cough, and looking at the shabby outfits of these people, many people immediately disliked them far away, for fear that she was sick, and they were afraid of being infected.

And that's exactly what they wanted.

After passing through the city gate, they successfully entered the city and were one step closer to the capital.

After they entered the city, the sky had completely darkened, and the bustling city was brightly lit, Wen Ruyi and Chu Hongze took Chunhua's sister-in-law to a deep alley that was inaccessible, where they gave Chunhua's sister-in-law and Yang'er's mother and son a sum of money, ready to part ways with them.

"Sister-in-law, thank you so much this time." Put more than 100 taels of silver tickets into the hands of Chunhua's sister-in-law, Wen Ruyi said gratefully, "Sister-in-law, if it weren't for you, we would probably not even be able to enter the city gate, although we can't tell you our identity, but we are definitely not bad people, this money will be given to you and Yang'er, you orphans and widows are still here to stay." ”

"Girl, you are too polite, you saved our mother and son, we are already grateful, and this is also a trivial matter, how can I ask for your money, no, this is absolutely not good." Chunhua's sister-in-law refused the money, and her face also showed a look of panic and surprise.

Helplessly, Wen Ruyi's attitude was resolute, she pushed and shoved several times without success, and in the end she had to accept the silver tael and carefully put it in her arms.

"Girl, you husband and wife must be careful when you are on the road at night, I heard that this area has not been very stable recently!" When Chunhua's sister-in-law heard Wen Ruyi say that she had to continue on her way, she couldn't help but advise with concern.

Her concern made Wen Ruyi's heart feel warm, and she replied with a smile, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, it'll be fine, and my husband ...... My husband is also there, no problem. ”

Saying that, Wen Ruyi reached out and pulled Chu Hongze's hand hanging by his side, and grinned happily at Chunhua's sister-in-law, Chunhua's sister-in-law recalled the scene when this young guy rescued their mother and son during the day, and her heart was suddenly relieved.

"Okay, then let's break up here and leave here."

No matter how much they said, it would become nonsense, and after saying goodbye to each other, Chunhua's sister-in-law took Yang'er's little hand and walked into the dark night to find an inn to spend the night.

As for Wen Ruyi and Chu Hongze, they walked in the opposite direction to Chunhua's sister-in-law, and continued to insist on hurrying with the help of the moonlight above their heads, which was still bright.

It's easy to do after the pass, there is no other checkpoint between here and the capital, but in order to hurry, they can only run on the road day and night.

However, it is indeed not very convenient to rush to the night, the night is much colder than the day, although the spring has already been delivered, but the temperature difference between morning and evening is still relatively large, even if Chu Hongze can not care, but Wen Ruyi's body can't bear it.

After walking for a short time, Chu Hongze stopped, and Wen Ruyi, who was following him, hit his back without paying attention, and her nose was hit by a hard back like iron, and she couldn't help but let out an "ouch".

"What's wrong?" Hearing her whisper, Chu Hongze hurriedly turned around, and in the dark, he saw Wen Ruyi's tearful appearance rubbing his nose with his hands.

How did he look pitiful, so Chu Hongze couldn't help laughing: "Ruyi, but it's too dark, you can't see the road clearly, so you hit my back?" ”

"Talent...... Not really! Wen Ruyi was quite dissatisfied, and her tone was coquettish, "If you hadn't stopped suddenly, how could I have bumped into it?" ”

But then again, there's nothing wrong with bumping it, at least, she doesn't feel sleepy, just now she thinks she can fall asleep standing up.

Wen Ruyi was thinking about it in his heart, so he heard Chu Hongze continue: "Why don't we find a place to live first?" It's now the second half of the night, the weather has suddenly cooled, and if you rush again, I'm afraid you'll really get sick, and we've been on the road for the past two days, so we should find a place to rest, otherwise the body can't stand it. ”

Although he was concerned about her when he said this, Wen Ruyi didn't want Chu Hongze to see himself as a person who was weak and dragged his feet, so he cheered up and said, "Lord Wang, I'm fine, you underestimate me too much, this night breeze is nothing to me at all, and I'm a doctor, I'm sure of my own body, you can rest assured." ”

Wen Ruyi patted her chest and swore that she was swearing, but God seemed to be deliberately against her, as soon as her words fell, she sneezed three times in a row, and her nose was a little blocked.

Now, no matter how much you explain, it's useless.

"I ......" Wen Ruyi's mouth opened, still thinking about self-justification, but when she raised her eyes, she met Chu Hongze's undoubted eyes, and her whole person instantly lowered her head, "Hey, okay, okay, just listen to you, let's go find a place to rest and rest before we leave." ”

The only good thing now was that they were less than ten miles away from the inner city at this time, and because of this, in the second half of the night, they could find the inn to rest for a while.

Before looking for the inn, Wen Ruyi and Chu Hongze deliberately smeared their faces, after all, the closer they were to the inner city, the more guards Mu Zirong sent out to find them, and the search must be more rigorous.

In order to prevent Mu Zirong's people from discovering them, Wen Ruyi took the initiative to put on makeup for both of them again, and as soon as the makeup was finished, no one could recognize who was coming, it was like a different look.

"Lord Wang, let's get together here tonight! Let's keep our spirits up and set off tomorrow. Entering an inn, Wen Ruyi put down the burden on her body and said to Chu Hongze beside her, after all, the environment here is not as good as other places, and she is afraid that Chu Hongze will dislike it.

Chu Hongze didn't have so many thoughts at all, just nodded and said, "Well, it's only like this now, I'll sleep next door, if there is any movement, you knock on the wall in the house, and I'll rush over." ”

"Okay, I remember, Lord Wang, you should also have a good rest." Chu Hongze was taking care of her all the way, Wen Ruyi saw it in her eyes and remembered it in her heart, so she naturally gave her instructions at ease.

"Okay." Chu Hongze agreed, then took his things and went to the next room.

Nothing to say all night, very quiet.

In the early morning, the sky was not completely bright, it was still a little gray, Wen Ruyi in the inn had already gotten up, and the two of them cleaned up and left the inn on the road.

Although it was still early in the morning, the street vendors had already set up their stalls and started business.

Most of the stalls sell breakfast, Wen Ruyi asked Chu Hongze for some silver, found a bun shop and bought a few buns back.

"Oh, here you go, hurry up and eat."

Holding the steaming bun back to Chu Hongze's side, Wen Ruyi left two for himself, and handed the rest to Chu Hongze.

Taking the meat bun, Chu Hongze only took a bite, looked at the bun in her hand, and said to her worriedly: "Only eat two, can you be full?" ”

Wen Ruyi's body is so thin, and she has been running with him in the mountains for so long, and then she was injured, she couldn't eat or sleep well, which made Chu Hongze very worried about her body.

"Uh-huh." Wen Ruyi, who was busy eating steamed buns, didn't have so many ideas, her mouth was full of food, and she couldn't make room to talk to him, so she had to respond inarticulately, she didn't have any appetite at all, and she couldn't eat so much.

The two of them hastily settled the problem of breakfast and went on their way, and when it was dawn, they discussed it and rented a carriage for the coachman to drive them into the city.

The rental carriage site was less than ten miles away from the capital, Wen Ruyi casually selected a coachman who looked good-looking to rent his carriage, continued to pretend to be a civilian couple, paid two silver taels, and pulled Chu Hongze into the carriage.

The journey is a little distance, and it is inevitable to chat with the carriage driver on the road, in most cases, it is actually the coachman who is asking, Wen Ruyi has an answer of whether he has a ride or not, and Chu Hongze is always silent.

"This little lady, looking at your dress, you and your husband are going to visit relatives in the city, right?" The carriage driver, who thought he knew countless people, asked proudly, as if he had seen at a glance what Wen Ruyi and Chu Hongze's purpose was, and felt that he must have guessed well.

Hearing the word "visiting relatives" again, Wen Ruyi smiled meekly, in fact, she was already happy in her heart, misunderstanding is good, misunderstanding is good, she can't wait to be misunderstood by others, originally she had such a reason in mind.

"Yes, this master has good eyesight, I didn't expect you to see this, our husband and wife are indeed looking for relatives in the city." Wen Ruyi, who had laughed enough in his heart, gave the coachman a thumbs up, and his expression was also a little appreciative.

As soon as she said this, the coachman became even more proud, and his whole person was frowning: "Hey, this is actually nothing, like those who do our business, their eyesight will be more or less a little." But ah, let me say more, you two have to be careful when you go to the city now, the last few days, the city has been in chaos. ”
