Chapter 1131 Changing Clothes and Entering the City Again
The sky was fully bright.
At this time, not only were there people entering the city, but there were also people coming out of the city. They looked at the city gate from afar with eyes full of doubt and fear.
"If you're going to leave the city, hurry up and don't linger here!"
Leng Rongyue, standing inside the city gate, offered a reminder.
Those who were about to leave the city quickly came to their senses, thanked the gatekeeper, and hurried through the gate, heading out of the city.
As we passed through the city gate, we saw the pitiful state of several constables lying prostrate against the wall. Most of us only glanced at them briefly before quickly looking away.
Many people didn't even dare to look and hurriedly left.
As the saying goes, one should not linger in a place of trouble!
The people who were blocking the city gate and trying to leave the city all rushed out of the city like a swarm of bees.
There weren't many people who had to go into the city for business, and they all quickened their pace to get in, intending to return quickly.
Those who didn't plan to go into the city today left in a hurry.
At this moment, only Leng Rongyue, Xiao Jingyu, and a few yamen runners huddled listlessly against the wall remained in the city gate.
Leng Rongyue took out the sleeping potion spray to spray it, but then thought, no!
Even if you can see the empty city outskirts from afar and no one seems to be entering the city anytime soon, there's no guarantee that people leaving the city won't pass through here.
If they inhale the drug and pass out while passing by... that would be terrible!
Thinking of this, Leng Rongyue put away the sleeping potion spray and replaced it with a bottle of powdered sleeping potion. Taking advantage of a gust of wind, she passed through the city gate and sprinkled the sleeping potion on several yamen runners at the base of the wall!
The constables quickly fell into a deep coma, and it would be several hours before they woke up.
Leng Rongyue put them into her spatial storage, and she and Xiao Jingyu followed suit with the carriage.
There was no one in sight at the city gate, only drops of blood on the ground of the gate opening, indicating that a bloody incident had indeed occurred here not long ago!
Xiao Jingyu was led into the space by Leng Rongyue and found that the two of them were still in front of the small building.
Xiao Jingyu looked around but didn't see the injured constables.
"Moon, where are those constables?"
Xiao Jingyu asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Oh, I dumped them in the woods over there by the hangar."
We can't let those guys dirty our garden and house!
Leng Rongyue pointed to the grove of trees not far away and replied.
Xiao Jingyu nodded knowingly.
The two walked side by side into the living room of the small building and sat down on the sofa.
"Looks like we need to change our clothes and wash our faces!"
Leng Rongyue looked at Xiao Jingyu and said.
"We'll deal with the matters at the city gate and the matter of Zhu Gefu, the prefect of Dongchang Prefecture, later. Let's go into the city first and find His Highness the Crown Prince."
Do you have any clues or methods for finding His Highness the Crown Prince?
Leng Rongyue asked.
Xiao Jingyu nodded, "Yes!"
My elder brother and I have our own way of communicating—
After settling down in a town, they would leave a small mark on the east corner of the largest restaurant in the town.
We can find each other's locations in the city by following the marks.
"In that case, let's hurry into the city!"
However, the city is likely to be in chaos today!
Leng Rongyue stood up as she spoke.
"Chaos is inevitable."
Suddenly, the city gate was deserted. Not only had he lost several trusted yamen runners, but the entrance fees he'd collected had also vanished without a trace. No wonder Prefect Zhu Gefu was frantic!
Xiao Jingyu said with a light laugh.
"Let it be chaotic, let's get back to our business!"
As Leng Rongyue spoke, she released her divine sense to probe the space outside...
By this time, it was already broad daylight, and there were only a few pedestrians and carriages traveling on the official road.
There are significantly fewer people entering the city, in particular.
Clearly, it was the people who had gone and returned who spread the word, persuading many who were going to Dongchang Prefecture to turn back.
Although there weren't many people or vehicles coming and going, there were still some.
If they suddenly appeared out of nowhere with their carriage, it would probably terrify anyone who saw them!
Leng Rongyue decided that it would be best for the two of them to reappear near the grove of trees where they had previously stayed.
With the trees providing cover, even if someone saw a carriage suddenly appear, they would only think they were seeing things.
The two went to wash their faces and change their clothes separately.
It is said that snobs often respect people's appearance before they respect them!
To avoid trouble, the two simply appeared in their finest attire.
Just because of his attire, fewer people will come up to cause trouble or make things difficult for him.
The two first went to the grove next to the hangar and took a look at the several injured and unconscious constables.
Leng Rongyue took out a bottle of hemostatic powder and hastily sprinkled it on the wounds of the group.
Letting them bleed to death like this... is too easy for them!
They should receive the appropriate punishment for the evil deeds and crimes they have committed.
That is true respect for the righteous path in the world!
Two people and a horse-drawn carriage reappeared behind the grove of trees.
Looking around and seeing that no one was paying attention to them, Xiao Jingyu drove the carriage onto the official road, just like before, and headed towards the city gate of Dongchang Prefecture.
