The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 68 Coming Soon

Jing Li didn't even look at Zhu Chengcai, and asked He Ziyu with a smile: "Where did you come from, Doctor He? Where are you going now?"

He Ziyu sighed: "My hometown is Guangzong in Jizhou. After the White Lotus Army uprising, I got separated from my family and was captured by the White Lotus Army and held hostage all the way here."

He Ziyu had stayed in the White Lotus Army for a long time and was highly valued by Zhang Ludan.

Zhu Chengcai originally came from a good family, but he was very philanthropic. He spent all his property to save people along the way. Even his old servants and book boy were kidnapped, and he was also captured by the White Lotus Army.

When Zhang Ludan set up an ambush for Jingli and the others, He Ziyu felt that an opportunity had come and decided to escape with Zhu Chengcai.

Unexpectedly, he met refugees on the way. Zhu Chengcai had a heart attack and asked He Ziyu to help save the person. The person was saved, but the refugees were not satisfied and wanted to grab food. No, what happened was what Jingli and the others saw.

After everyone listened to He Ziyu's story, they looked at Zhu Chengcai as if he was an idiot. How stupid and naive he was to actually want to save the refugees in the world. He really thought he was a Bodhisattva coming to the world!

Jing Li sincerely invited him: "We are going to the fourth prince's fiefdom. I wonder what Doctor He's plans are? Do we want to go with him all the way?"

He Ziyu hurriedly replied: "I couldn't ask for more. My family is also going to the Fourth Prince's fiefdom. I'd like to thank you girl for giving me a ride!"

He Ziyu looked back at Zhu Chengcai: "What are brother Chengcai's plans?"

Zhu Chengcai tidied up his appearance and said: "It's okay to go with us, but the men and women are guarding each other. Please pay more attention to the girl!"

He Ziyu looked a little embarrassed, Jing Li rolled her eyes, who is so lucky to take you!
Jing Dafu said from the side: "Why don't Mr. Zhu go on the road alone? After all, scholars are always noble, and don't let rough guys like us get in trouble."

Uncle Tiesheng also nodded: "It makes sense. We are all mud-legged, illiterate, and there are many vulgar women. I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for Mr. Zhu to go together."

Zhu Chengcai snorted coldly: "I, Mr. Zhu, have been taught by the court since I was young, and I will never quarrel with other women. Don't worry, everyone!"

The group took He Ziyu and Zhu Chengcai back to the mountainside of Shouyang Mountain above Geng Valley.

Seeing that her daughter had returned intact, Mrs. Su hurriedly stepped forward and hugged her: "You heartless person, you almost caused my mother to lose her way of life. If something happened to you, what would my mother be doing alive?"

Mrs. Su burst into tears. After all these years, her husband had died and her parents-in-law had been mean and partial. She had never been so sad and heartbroken. The moment the jingli fell, she felt that her whole world had collapsed.

The fat aunt wiped her tears with her sleeves: "Ah Li is fine. What did you say? We are all living well now, so we can never talk about life and death again."

Aunt An smiled with tears in her eyes: "No, just come back safely!"

Mrs. Ge came over with a cane: "Stop crying now, hurry up and get something for our girl to stutter. She hasn't had a hot meal all day and night."

Widow Qin hurriedly said: "Xiao Su, come and help me quickly. Let's get some food for the captain."

Jing Li quickly shouted: "Grandma Qin, make more food for a few people, and eat some of the uneaten food."

Uncle Tiesheng and the others were all busy looking for her, and they probably didn't even eat.

Jingli comforted her grandma and several aunts, and just as she sat down to take a sip of water, Wang Tan came over, her face full of guilt: "I'm sorry, I always couldn't deal with you in the past, but you still risked your life to save me, I "Wang Tan's eyes were slightly red, and she couldn't go on. Jing Li patted her hand and said, "It's natural for a little girl to be willful at the moment. I don't take it to heart. Don't pay too much attention to it. It's all coming from life and death. Yes, how could I just watch and not save him?"

"Besides, if something happens to you, your mother probably won't survive. We are all traveling with our mothers, so we should help each other."

Wang Tan was so moved that he bit his lip and said, "Don't worry, after we pass Tongguan and arrive in Chang'an, I will definitely ask my father to arrange a good place for you."

Jingli paused: "Isn't your father in the fourth prince's fiefdom? Shouldn't it be in Qinzhou?"

Wang Tan sat next to her: "It was originally in Qinzhou, but later the fourth prince's generals were quite powerful and captured Tongguan, taking the opportunity to expand into the Central Plains."

"The fourth prince's palace has also been moved to Chang'an. I only heard this from people on the way."

Jing Li breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. We don't have to walk hundreds of miles to pass Tongguan. It's only a hundred miles to Chang'an."

Dalang passed by and was overjoyed when he heard this: "Sister, can we reach Chang'an in two or three days at most?"

Jing Li nodded: "If Miss Wang's information is correct, then that's it."

As soon as the news came out that we were almost at our destination, everyone was very excited. After traveling for several months, we could finally stop.

In the midst of cheers, Jing Li signaled everyone to be quiet: "The closer it is to the last moment, the more cautious we must be. Don't look back and let the people on the Fourth Prince's side regard us as bandits and ruin everyone's life." back."

Mr. Jing happily tapped his pipe: "Take away all the murderous aura from you. Our ancestors have been honest farmers for generations. Don't look back and cause any trouble."

Jing Dafu sipped the noodle soup: "Don't worry, old man, we will make sure to clean up the house in a good manner so that no one can find fault."

After Jingli finished a bowl of noodle soup, Haitang came over and said, "Sister Ahli, thank you for saving my brother. If you find me useful in the future, just ask me."

Jing Li put down the bowl: "You can't say that I saved him. After all, he fell because he saved me."

After speaking, he paused again: "Is your brother sick?"

Haitang's face looked panicked for a moment, and then returned to normal. If Jingli hadn't looked carefully, he might not have noticed it.

Haitang whispered: "I had some diseases during the pregnancy. I used to take all kinds of good medicinal soups to support me, but now
She didn't say any more. Jingli returned with a clear look, but she was muttering in her heart: "Is this brought in the womb? It's obviously a mental illness caused by a huge change in childhood, okay!"

Jing Li has no habit of prying into other people's privacy. At this moment, she only wants to enter Chang'an City safely and see if Chang'an Lord Bo can give her a better place.

The news came very happily. It was only a few days away. Everyone was no longer in a hurry. They went down the mountainside to the Genggu River and spent a night repairing it before leaving.

Dalang recounted what happened after Jingli fell off the cliff: "They didn't have many weapons. Many of the swords and the like that they collected were defective, and their clothes were stripped off by Auntie and the others."

"Everyone says that if Chang'an City is prosperous, everything must be expensive. It's almost winter now, so it would be nice to have more cloth guys making shoes for the kids."
