At the gate of the capital, people and carriages leaving the city formed a long line.

Most of the people who went out of the city at this time were merchants traveling from south to north and small officials who secretly fled with their families.

The population of the capital is huge, even if Cao Zhirong has the means to reach the sky, it is impossible to surround the capital into an airtight iron barrel.

South gate.

A luxurious carriage quietly approached the long queue going out of the city.

A handsome young man in a purple auspicious cloud pattern opened the curtain of the car, looked at the long queue, frowned and complained.

"With so many people, how long will it take to wait?"

His words caught the attention of the owner of a carriage next to him.

"Little brother, wait. You can do something else. You know what the situation in the capital is like now..." A fair-skinned and wealthy middle-aged businessman answered the question, and he deliberately lowered his voice for the second half of the sentence. After seeing such a magnificent team, he also shook his head.

The young man sighed, "The court has something to do, and it's us businessmen who travel all over the place that make things difficult."

The middle-aged wealthy businessman was in the porcelain business, and he nodded in satisfaction when he heard this sentence.

He quietly looked around at the young man's clothes, and the several carriages behind him that looked like they were pulling goods, and he couldn't help asking curiously.

"Little brother, Brother Yu has poor eyesight, I don't know that you are in this carriage..."

The young man gave a hearty laugh, and continued: "It's just some old, cheap stuff. If you like it, brother, feel free to take some."

"Little brother, if that's the case, Brother Yu will exchange some porcelain with you."

The kung fu of two people talking.

From the young man's carriage, came a delicate and soft youthful voice.

"elder brother."

The curtain of the carriage was shaken by the wind, and the middle-aged wealthy businessman only had time to see a dazzling white face inside, and the obvious posture of a delicate and frail rich man.

"A Yuan, what's wrong?"

Hearing this, the young man hurriedly turned his head to look.

"I'm a little dizzy..." The voice inside was sticky and sticky, and the feeling of dependence in it was so strong that it was about to be drawn.

"Okay, brother will be here soon."

The young man speaks to his younger brother with a distinctly different tone of voice than normal.

The former is much more gentle and patient.

Seeing that the middle-aged wealthy businessman was still waiting, the young man smiled apologetically at him.

"Brother, I'm really sorry. My younger brother has nothing to do, but he ran out with me secretly this time. He is not in good health. He has a headache and fever these days, so he can only hide in the carriage without the wind."

"It's all right. Little brother, go and take care of your little brother."

The middle-aged wealthy businessman waved his hand very generously, expressing that he didn't care.

The young man bowed to him gratefully, hurriedly lowered the car curtain and got in with a bowed body.

"Princess, what's the matter? But it's a little stuffy in the carriage?"

When Du Ruo got into the carriage, although he changed his name, the anxious expression on his face remained the same.

"No, I just watched you go out for so long, and I feel a little..."

Before Luo Ruan finished speaking, Du Ruo already understood.

She gently grabbed Luo Ruan's little hand curled up together, and placed it in her palm lovingly.

"Princess, don't be afraid. With me here, those people will definitely not hurt the princess."

"Then you can't get hurt!" Luo Ruan caught the loophole in her words, and hurriedly asked again.

Du Ruo pursed her lips and laughed.

She looked at Luo Ruan with bright eyes, and with some unknown but hot emotion, she agreed softly.

"Okay, I promise the princess."

For some reason, Luo Ruan felt a little hot all of a sudden. Luo Ruan dodged her eyes unnaturally, subconsciously bit her lips tightly with her white teeth, and said something besides.

"I don't know if we can get out."

Du Ruo looked at the light coming in from the outside of the car curtain, but he couldn't say he was 100% sure.

"It's all my fault for dragging my feet. If it wasn't for me, you and Zi Luo wouldn't have to follow me to hide..." Luo Ruan's long eyelashes drooped, her voice was low and sad.

Du Ruo patted her head, "The princess is not a burden, the princess is already great."

She is obviously a princess who was brought up in a golden nest and a silver nest, but when she was avoiding the pursuers these days, she never complained about the rough tea and ugly clothes.

She is so well-behaved that it makes her feel bad, but she still says that she doesn't want to be her burden.

Du Ruo clenched her fists and made a secret decision in her heart.

The shadow on the ground moved quietly with the sun in the sky.

The sound of horse snorting followed one after another.

Covered with a soft quilt, Luo Ruan leaned softly on the wall of the carriage, vividly portraying the image of a sick and wealthy young man.

The convoy moved forward gradually.

Luo Ruan could already see the city gate ahead.

She concentrated on watching every move outside, not daring to relax in the slightest.

The middle-aged wealthy businessman who had talked to her just now was in the group of people in front of them.

The inspecting soldiers rushed forward and turned his carriage over.

The carts of fragile porcelain he was pulling made a ding-ding sound because of the rough treatment.

Noticing Du Ruo's gaze, the middle-aged wealthy businessman greeted her with a smile.

Du Ruo also turned back with a smile, and put down the car curtain calmly.

Then her face changed drastically, which startled Luo Ruan.

"Sister, what's wrong?!"

Du Ruo blew a whistle, and at the same time pulled out the blade from his sleeve with his backhand.

"We're afraid we're being targeted."

"As a porcelain merchant, that person is not only not nervous about his goods, but even chats with soldiers. They are probably passing information."

"Don't be afraid." Du Ruo held Luo Ruan's hand tightly, "Follow me closely later."

Luo Ruan nodded quickly, and stuck tightly behind her.

She saw Du Ruo opened the car curtain a little, then threw the dagger out of his hand, hitting a horse's ass.

Enraged by the pain, the horse let out a long cry, raised its front hooves high, pulled the carriage and galloped.

One horse was startled, and then the rest of the horses were startled.

Everything happens within seconds.

When Luo Ruan realized it, the scene at the city gate had become extremely chaotic.

Du Ruo saw the timing, and immediately took the whip and lashed the horse's buttocks.

The horse was in pain, and ran towards the city under Du Ruo's control.

"Catch them!!!"

Luo Ruan heard the roar behind him, and all kinds of chaotic voices.

A group of soldiers tried to catch up with them, but they were quickly left behind.

At the back, Du Ruo felt that the carriage was too troublesome, so he resolutely abandoned the carriage, took Luo Ruan and rode a horse together and disappeared into the winding alleyway.

Not long after they disappeared.

A panting woman in red flicked her whip violently, and shouted coquettishly: "They are right in front, follow this road, look for me one by one!"
