I married the crippled queen and became the most favored queen in the capital

Hearing these words, Leng Yixing's confused emotions became even more confused.

He looked at Luo Nianxi blankly, as if he didn't understand what she was saying, but he also seemed to understand the meaning of her words.

Luo Nianxi knew that he could not accept what she said for the time being.

But in order to comfort him, she continued:

"Leng Yixing, believe me, your fourth brother is not that kind of person. Just be patient. It won't be long before we come back to rescue you."

At this time, Leng Yixing finally reacted.

"Sister-in-law, are you telling the truth? He is really not my fourth brother?"

Luo Nianxi nodded with a firm look in her eyes.

"Yes, he must not be your fourth brother. How could your fourth brother be willing to lock you up in such a dark place? How could he be willing to harm the people around him?"

At this point, she thought of Jinjie again.

"Remember, don't tell anyone what I said to you. I have no reason to take you away now. To avoid alerting the enemy, just stay here and wait for me to come back."

Leng Yixing's face showed a hint of anticipation at this moment.

"Fourth Sister-in-law, I believe you..."

She patted his shoulder and stood up to leave.

After she came out of the prison, Bai Lan had already bought the food needed to go to the border. The four of them went straight to the city gate.

When they came, there were only soldiers patrolling the city gate. When they were about to leave the city, the guards at the city gate were obviously stricter.

Hong Yan went to inquire and learned that they specifically searched young women entering the city, and it was said that women traveling in groups of three or four would be checked more carefully.

It seems that this fake emperor doesn't want her to enter the city and really wants to kill her to silence her!

Fortunately, they came in early, otherwise, they would definitely not be able to enter the city, or they would be caught by these people.

They quickly rode out of the capital city on horseback, heading straight for the border along the official road.

This place is far away from the border. Even if they ride as fast as they can, it will take them a month to get there. The round trip will take at least two months.

Riding on the horse, listening to the whistling wind blowing past her ears, she prayed silently in her heart, hoping that no innocent people would be harmed in the past two months.

Four women disguised as men rode their horses on the official road, speeding along, leaving only a trail of dust.

She was in a very heavy mood. She hoped that the man sitting on the dragon throne was Leng Yiyan, because that would prove that he was fine and still alive.

She also hoped that the person was not Leng Yiyan, because she didn't believe that Leng Yiyan would become that kind of person.

They walked on the road for half a month and finally arrived at a place called Shucheng.

Chun Tao pointed at the two big characters on the city gate and asked curiously,

"Shucheng? Why is this place called such a strange name?"

Bai Lan held her mouth and shook her head.

"I don't know, young lady. Stay in this city tonight and continue your journey tomorrow!"

Along the way, although Luo Nianxi appeared calm on the surface, she was actually extremely panicked inside.

"it is good,"

She said only one word and rode towards the city.

The three girls knew what she was thinking. Although they tried their best to cheer her up along the way, they felt very depressed when they saw that she often smiled with her lips but not her heart.

She was worried about Jinjie, Leng Yiyan, Jinyu and Jinyan.

Thinking of the happy moments when the family was together, she always felt sad.

After entering the city, the four of them dismounted from their horses and each led a horse forward.

Shucheng is very lively, with many people coming and going on the streets. The vendors on both sides of the street are shouting non-stop, and they seem to be very energetic.

"You stinky beggar, you dare to come and steal my food, you are really courting death, hurry up and spit it out, or I will peel open your belly and take out the buns you ate for free."

Luo Nianxi and the others looked in the direction of these frightening words, and saw the bun vendor kicking and beating a beggar who was kneeling on the ground, cursing non-stop.

Seeing this scene, Bai Lan glanced at Luo Nianxi, then walked over quickly and scolded her harshly.

"Stop it! You want to beat someone to death in broad daylight just for a steamed bun?"

The steamed bun vendor looked at her unhappily with his hands on his hips.

"A steamed bun? That's easy for you to say. Then did you pay for him?"

Bai Lan took out a piece of silver from her waist without saying anything.

"I'll give you the money for one steamed bun, and the rest will be used to buy steamed buns for me."

The vendor then glared at the beggar angrily, "You stinky beggar, you are lucky today because this young man paid for you. If you dare to come again tomorrow, I will kill you."

After leaving these harsh words, he took the silver that Bai Lan gave him, packed a dozen more, and presented them to Bai Lan with a nod and a bow.

"Sir, the steamed buns you requested..."

Bai Lan took the steamed bun, squatted in front of the beggar, and said softly:

"These steamed buns are for you. Stop stealing other people's food."

As she spoke, she placed the steamed bun in front of him. Just as she was about to turn around, she saw the man getting up from the ground and limping forward.

"Hey, here's your steamed bun..."

Bai Lan was an enthusiastic person, and since she had already bought the buns, if she couldn't give them away, the young lady would insist on letting her eat them.

She quickly caught up with the beggar and was about to hand him the steamed bun when she saw him lower his head and nod to her while taking the bun.

This scene made Bai Lan very confused. She didn't understand. She clearly saved the beggar, but not only did he not thank her, he also avoided her and even seemed to be afraid of her.

She felt that she and the beggar had a sense of déjà vu, but she soon found herself amused by this somewhat ridiculous feeling.

But she was sure that this beggar must be a man with a strong self-esteem. He did not want to accept charity from others, but he had no choice.

Such people made her feel even more sympathetic.

"Why are you running? Take this steamed bun..."

As she spoke, she took out two pieces of silver from her waist and put them into his hands.

"Take this silver, and don't steal other people's steamed buns again."

The beggar seemed to be resisting the silver she handed over. He kept pulling his hand back and shaking his head.

This was the first time she had seen a beggar who refused to accept money.

At this time, Hong Yan shouted,

"Bai Lan, hurry up, the lady is tired."

Bai Lan then stuffed the two silver pieces into the beggar's hand again and turned away.

The beggar secretly raised his head and looked in the direction she left, his eyes falling directly on Luo Nianxi, who was dressed as a man.

She seemed to have lost weight, and there was no trace of a smile on her face.

The beggar held the two pieces of silver in his hand, and suddenly burst into tears. He collapsed to the ground helplessly...

When Bai Lan came back, Hong Yan couldn't help but blame her.

"If you spend so much time with a beggar, don't you know that the lady is tired?"

Bai Lan smiled somewhat embarrassedly.

"That beggar refused to take the steamed bun I gave him. I stuffed two pieces of silver into his pocket, but he still refused. I always felt that he was a beggar with a strong character, so let's stay for a while and go!"

Chuntao pouted there

"A beggar doesn't want buns, nor money? This is really a strange thing. Is he a fake beggar?"
