Escape after crossing

Chapter 25 Lengli Kingdom

On the way, Jiang Ziluo ate while thinking about what Shopkeeper Hong said. It was from Shopkeeper Hong's words that Jiang Ziluo knew.

She is now in the north of Lengli Kingdom, three cities away from the northernmost border.

The world is now divided into four parts. To the north of Lengli Kingdom is Pulu Kingdom, to the west is Lingxi Kingdom, and to the south is Mosang Kingdom.

During the Spring and Autumn seasons, the Po Lu State would always harass the northern border of the Leng Li State. The army stationed on the border all year round was led by General Li Ji.

The west is guarded by Leng Chenming, the prince of Zhenxi Palace, because of the heavy blow that Zhenxi King Leng Shiao inflicted on Lingxi Kingdom many years ago.

Lingxi Guoan was born, and the King of Zhenxi was also injured in that battle. He was summoned back to the capital by the king Leng Shilie to recuperate.

The defense of the west fell on the shoulders of Prince Leng. Leng Chenming had been training in the military camp with the King of Zhenxi since he was 15 years old, so the king was relieved to let him guard the west.

The south was guarded by the Queen's uncle Chen Yaopeng, who was the Queen's elder brother.

Officials did not care about the drought around Luocheng this time. Jiang Ziluo didn't know whether it was the local officials or the court that did not care.

In short, no officials came to inquire about it, and no relief food was seen. Jiang Ziluo also learned a piece of news.

The war has already started in the north, but it has been a minor conflict every year, so the rich people in Los Angeles have not left yet.

Manager Hong said that if you want to leave, you should go south and then go to three or four cities. That place is better, closer to the capital and farther away from the borders.

However, the number of people fleeing famine this time should not be small. Manager Hong also said that in recent days, there are more and more beggars in Luo City.

Jiang Ziluo knew that they needed to prepare for their escape from famine as soon as possible, so she asked Manager Hong to help buy a cow and a donkey.

It was sent to the Jiang family in Siyuan Village the next day to express our gratitude for their help.

Jiang Ziluo knew that this excuse was a bad one, but she couldn't think of a good one for the time being.

She just wanted to let them pass through and then leave. She didn't care if others would get suspicious.

Jiang Ziluo had good intentions, but he didn't expect that someone would knock on the Jiang family's gate before dawn the next day.

After Jiang Runzhi opened the door and saw that it was Shopkeeper Hong, he was stunned. He looked behind Shopkeeper Hong and saw several people there. He suddenly became a little scared.

His first reaction when he saw Manager Hong was, is he here to get the money and food back?

After seeing the ox cart and donkey cart behind Manager Hong, he became even more certain of his idea.

He hurriedly closed the gate again, ready to run away when his family got up.

Shopkeeper Hong was stunned by Jiang Runzhi's series of actions and turned around to look at the other waiters who came with him.

They all looked confused. Manager Hong had just knocked on the door quite loudly, and Jiang Ziyan and Jiang Ziluo were both awake. They listened carefully but didn't hear any sound.

I was just about to take a nap, but before I lay down, I heard Jiang Runzhi calling Jiang Hongyu.

"Hongyu, Hongyu, get up quickly and call your brothers, hurry up."

When the two girls heard this, they didn't lie down anymore, picked up their clothes and put them on, and then they heard someone shouting, "Yan Yan, Yan Yan, hurry up, wake up the two sisters, put on your first clothes, hurry up."

While Jiang Runzhi was talking, Jiang Ziluo put on his clothes and opened the door.

"Dad, what's wrong?"

"Lolo, Lolo, Shopkeeper Hong is here and is going to take away all the things given to our family. Hurry, hide quickly. If the things are gone, they are gone. It's good that the people are okay. Hurry up."

Then he pushed Jiang Ziluo back to the room and prepared to call Zhao. Jiang Ziluo was confused. Uncle Hong was coming to pick up something? Why didn't I hear about it yesterday?

Seeing Jiang Runzhi was about to leave, Jiang Ziluo stopped him and asked, "Dad, where is Shopkeeper Hong?"

"He's already at the door, why are you still asking him?"

Jiang Ziluo remembered asking Manager Hong for help yesterday, and seemed to understand something!

But wasn't it too early for Shopkeeper Hong? Too early? Did something happen?

Jiang Ziluo didn't care about anything else. He pushed Jiang Runzhi away and ran to the gate of the courtyard. When he saw the person asking, he asked hurriedly.

"Uncle Hong, what happened?" As he spoke, his hands were not idle as he opened the gate.

Jiang Runzhi followed Jiang Ziluo, fearing that something might happen to his daughter. Unexpectedly, he heard Jiang Ziluo calling him Uncle Hong.

I was still wondering in my heart, when did I become so familiar with Shopkeeper Hong? Before I could figure it out, I heard Shopkeeper Hong say.

"Lolo, something really happened, otherwise I wouldn't have come to disturb you so early."

"Uncle Hong, please tell me, what's the matter?"

"I received news this morning that General Chen of the Northern Territory failed to defend the border a few days ago and was defeated by the eldest prince of the Po Lu Kingdom and his 80,000-man army.

You have occupied our city, don't you want to take your family and leave? Pack up and leave today."

As he said this, he handed the documents for the purchase of the ox cart and donkey cart to Jiang Ziluo. Jiang Ziluo took the documents and asked what it was.

Shopkeeper Hong said, "This is the official certificate for the ox cart and the donkey cart. Keep it well and don't lose it. It will be useful."

Jiang Ziluo really didn't know that this animal had proof. Looking at the paper in his hand, Jiang Ziluo thought of an important thing.

"Uncle Hong, do we need to bring our household registration certificate when we leave?"

"If you follow the village chief, then you don't need to do that. If you are alone, then you need to take the certificate issued by the village chief and get it stamped by the government."

After hearing the answer, Jiang Ziluo didn't ask any other questions. Seeing that Jiang Ziluo had no more questions, Manager Hong said.

"Lolo, remember to leave as early as possible, don't delay.

He looked around again and whispered, "Lolo, remember to take the banknote in your hand and exchange it for money at any Huajianfu store. You can also come to them if you have any problems.

Remember, okay, I'm leaving now. I have to go back and prepare to leave. Not many people know this news now, so it's still very convenient to leave."

After that, he took a few servants and got on the carriage and left. However, after all this trouble, some people in the village woke up.
