The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Chapter 59: Mistakenly Entering Meng State

It was ten days later that Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty learned of Shen Jiarou's disappearance.

The middle-aged man in the main seat had a gloomy look on his face. "What? The county master is missing?"

The secret guard knew that his master was angry, but he did not dare to lie. "It is absolutely true. The county lady and the people in the county government have been looking for her all night."

Thinking of the strong and bright girl whose life or death was now uncertain, Emperor Shun of Yuan felt sad for some reason.

The county lady had not been found for ten days, and the atmosphere in her mansion was depressing.

Since the county lady is not here, Nanny Wang is the most senior person in the mansion, and she is sitting in the main seat at this moment.

"It's been ten days, and the county lady hasn't been found yet." She didn't expect that the county lady would disappear just when she went out to burn incense.

At this time, someone from the government office came to report, "Madame Wang, the master said someone had seen the county lady."

When Nanny Wang heard this, she immediately asked, "Who?"

"Human traffickers."

Nanny Su, Nanny He and others were shocked.

In the government office, Bai Yuancheng, who always looked like a scholar, now had a gloomy and ugly expression on his face.

"Madame Wang and Madame Su are here!"

Hearing the announcement from the government office, Bai Yuancheng, who was dressed in official uniform, stood up.

He knew that they were all from the palace. "Hello, Nanny Wang and Nanny Su."

The two bowed to him, and Nanny Wang said anxiously, "Master Bai, we heard that someone saw the county lady."

On a carriage, a young girl was in a corner, trying her best to make her presence felt.

Along the way, she was tied up tightly and had no chance to escape.

Thinking about the past year or so since I came here, is it time for me to start a life of wandering and fear?

She is not reconciled.

Along the way she tried many ways to escape, but none of them worked.

Seeing that they were about to enter Huimeng Kingdom, Shen Jiarou felt a little desperate.

Two days later, when the carriage they were riding in entered the Kingdom of Meng, Shen Jia, who was thin and gentle, heard some babbling outside the window. There were more than one or two words, which made her even more frightened.

The breeze blew the curtain beside her, revealing her pretty face. At this moment, she was wearing Maya costumes.

The night wind was quiet and refreshing, but Shen Jiarou was still looking around, looking for the right opportunity to escape.

At four quarters after 3 p.m., Shen Jiarou untied the ropes that bound her body while the people who were watching over them went out to eat.

The others were startled and quickly signaled with their eyes to save them.

Shen Jiarou thought that everyone had met each other, so she simply untied everyone's ropes.

"The rest is up to you all. We say goodbye now and may not see each other again."

She doesn't want to meet them again, and have to distract herself to save people. She acts like a saint every time. Does she want to live anymore?

No one thought too much about it when they were running away.

After Shen Jiarou finished speaking, she ran away quickly.

Outside the imperial city, a group of people were fighting.

Shen Jiarou secretly thought that she was unlucky and encountered trouble wherever she went.

But judging from the current situation, those masked men are assassins.

At the wide city gate, both sides suffered heavy losses. Originally, the city gate was fine when she arrived, but Shen Jiarou didn't expect that something would happen at night.

Suddenly a tall figure was kicked and flew over.

"boom."

"Puff." The man spat out a mouthful of blood.

Seeing that the masked man was chasing him relentlessly, Shen Jiarou simply picked up a few stones and rushed over.

The man didn't expect there was someone behind him, so he quickly stood up and killed the person in front of him with a knife.

Seeing the man being stabbed with a knife, Shen Jiarou's face changed drastically with fear.

Oh my God, it was her first time to watch a murder seriously, and she was scared to death.

Suddenly she saw a masked man behind the man holding a knife and shouted.

"Watch your back."

Fortunately, the man heard it and thrust the knife in his hand backwards, and the masked man fell to the ground.

Shen Jiarou was frightened again. Oh my god, she wanted to run away.

After finally persevering in the rescue and suppressing the rebellion, the man walked up to Shen Jiarou. The moment their eyes met, Shen Jiarou couldn't hold on any longer and fainted.

The man took one look and bent down to pick her up.

Shen Jiarou had a dream. She dreamed that she died and went to the underworld, but people refused to accept her and said that she still had several decades to live.

So Shen Jiarou woke up.

She slowly opened her eyes and found that everything she saw was so strange, as if she was lying on something soft.

She sat up and took a quick look. She felt that this place looked like a palace. Ordinary people, even nobles, would not decorate their homes like this.

The gauze curtain beside the bed was crescent-shaped white, and the bed she was lying on was big enough to accommodate several people.

The decorations outside are also different from those in the Dalin Dynasty, and the shapes are a bit strange.

Suddenly, footsteps were heard and two girls walked in. They looked like palace maids and were holding something in their hands.

Seeing that she woke up, the two girls were delighted.

"Little girl, you're awake."

Shen Jiarou looked straight at them and just nodded slightly.

One person came to the bed, one put down the tray, walked over and sat down, and picked up the bowl on the other person's tray.

"Little girl, this is porridge. You've been unconscious for a few days, so eat some liquid food."

Seeing the watery porridge in front of her, she was speechless. It was indeed watery.

Seeing the silk they were wearing, Shen Jiarou was about to ask a few questions, but decided not to.

Before lunch, she was taken by a maid to a larger palace.

The man sitting in the middle is dignified and imposing.

"Your servant greets His Majesty."

Seeing the nanny do this, Shen Jiarou also followed suit and bowed.

"See Your Majesty."

At this time, the king raised his head and looked at the little girl in front of him. Seeing that she was still maintaining the same saluting posture as the nanny, he smiled faintly.

"No gift."

Hearing that there was no need for formalities, Shen Jiarou raised her head, straightened her back, and looked at the man opposite her neither humbly nor arrogantly.

The man's mouth curled slightly. "Aren't you afraid of me?"

Shen Jiarou pursed her lips slightly and asked, "Are you a tiger?"

The king didn't understand why she asked this and expressed his doubts directly.

"Oh, why do you say that?"

"You are not a tiger, so why should I be afraid of you?" She remembered that she seemed to be his savior, so this man should not kill his savior.

She had no expression on her face but her eyes moved slightly, and the king knew she was thinking.

"Why are you at the city gate?" He just happened to appear at the city gate where they were fighting.

Shen Jiarou's heart trembled, thinking that this was the torture.

"Run away."

The king had not expected her to be so direct. "Why did you run away?"

Shen Jiarou spread her hands and said, "Look, I don't look like one of you. Why would you run away?"

The king was amused by her blunt words. "That's true. Then how did you come back to Meng Kingdom?"

Shen Jiarou sighed, "I went out with my sisters and servants to burn incense in Dalin Dynasty. Unexpectedly, we ran into bandits. During the fight, I accidentally rolled down the hillside. When I woke up, I found myself tied up by human traffickers and brought here. It was totally unexpected that I appeared in that place."

The king pondered the truth of her words.

"How can I know whether what you said is true or false?"

Shen Jiarou simply gave up when she heard that. "Believe it or not, I have no reason to kill you anyway."

Her frankness surprised the king.

"Girl, you are quite eloquent."

Shen Jiarou rolled her eyes. "It's mutual. Thanks for letting me win."

The king was amused by her again.
