No, I was just a concubine, how did I become the queen?

Wu Yunzhu finally managed to avoid the crowd and reached a place with fewer people. Only then did she wipe the sweat from her forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.

With so many people clamoring, no one can hear you saying "make way" or "excuse me".

It is really not an easy task to squeeze it out purely by relying on your own physical strength.

At this moment, she felt that turning down the horse riding and archery class was not a wise choice.

Although they attended classes together when they were young, as she grew older, her mother worried that she would get hurt while riding a horse.

Especially when I heard that someone was riding a horse and injured that part, and didn't have a period on their wedding night.

My mother became even more worried.

Later, after entering the palace and becoming a princess, she could no longer attend classes with her younger brothers for a while.

My mother was relieved and wrote to me saying that this was a good thing and asked her to be more chaste.

Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother and Yaliqi both supported the princess and the prince to attend classes together, so she had no choice but to go to the study room to study.

Of course, my mother supported me getting along with my younger brothers, but she felt that I absolutely could not take the horse riding and archery class.

In the end, she was willing to be scolded and used the excuse of "premature birth" to refuse the horse riding and archery class.

After that, she never took horse riding and archery lessons again.

The unfamiliarity she had experienced in the past few years made it difficult for her to squeeze out a path and walk this short distance.

Wu Yunzhu thought in confusion for a while, then found a clean stone to sit on while panting.

The sun was already shining overhead, she was tired, and her throat was dry and itchy.

She reached out and touched her purse. Fortunately, the heavy purse gave her confidence.

Now all I have to do is stop an ox cart, go back to the capital, and find an inn to stay in for two days.

It’s a pity that she didn’t bring her maids with her, otherwise she wouldn’t have to worry about these things.

The place where Wu Yunzhu stayed was quite secluded, with almost no one there.

This place is where garbage and debris from the garden party are piled up, and there is a strange smell in the air.

She had just escaped here as a temporary measure, but now that she had recovered, she didn't want to stay here for a moment.

Before she could stand up, she was bumped into by a child of five or six years old.

The child had a shaved head and was wearing a gray coat with holes on his arms and legs. He was so dirty that his appearance could not be seen clearly.

It was obviously a beggar on the street. The stench made Wu Yunzhu almost vomit out of disgust.

"What are you doing?!" she yelled in disgust and pushed the man hard.

The child was very thin and of course had no strength.

She pushed him and he fell a long distance.

Fortunately, he was pushed away, so he just stood up, gave her a vicious look, and ran away without looking back.

Wu Yunzhu patted the clothes on her chest after seeing him run away, but she became even angrier - the clothes were covered with black marks and smelled bad.

What a bad luck!

She has been served by more than a dozen people since she was born.

Is there any day when we are not dressed in fine clothes and fed with delicious food, and wear gold and silver jewelry?

When going out to play or have a meal, you have to change into a new set of clothes even if they are not even a little dirty.

How could one tolerate these black and smelly clothes?

Especially her nose suddenly became extremely sensitive for some reason, and the stench kept drilling into her nose.

"Let me buy some clothes first," she said to herself.

I reached out to touch the purse in my arms again, but there was...

It’s empty? ! !

Hiss, that's a thief!

Only then did Wu Yunzhu realize that she had encountered the thief in the storybook.

There was no one here and it was so empty, but the child still bumped into her arms. His intention was very obvious.

But she was still foolishly disgusted by his dirtiness and stench, and never thought that he was here to steal!

When Wu Yunzhu thought of this, she felt a little scared.

Without money, she had no confidence that she could survive for more than three or two days outside alone.

Although I still have a few pieces of jewelry on my head and hands, I can get a lot of money if I pawn them.

But these things all have marks on them, and as long as she goes out to pawn them, they will be discovered.

If she was found immediately, all her hard work would be in vain!

Wu Yunzhu stood in the corner, not caring about the smell, and began to feel conflicted.

After a long while, the image of Mingchen and Nian Qiuyue smiling at each other flashed through her mind, and she finally made up her mind.

She looked towards an oxcart on the left, and finally walked over to it and asked, "Old man, how much does it cost to go to the city?"

The old man was wearing a big straw hat that almost covered his entire face, leaving only his chin with a gray beard exposed.

He said in a hoarse voice, "A ride is five cents, and chartering a car is a hundred cents."

If he took a car, he would have to wait until the garden party was over and there were enough people in the car before he could drive to the city.

Chartering a car means making a trip just for you, so the price will of course be a bit more expensive.

Wu Yunzhu has grown up and has never used the unit of "wen" even when rewarding his servants.

Fortunately, Lin Mingyan’s pocket money management system applies to all children, so she has some understanding of money.

Some young men and women from wealthy families may not even know the unit called Wen.

Seeing the price was so cheap, Wu Yunzhu breathed a sigh of relief and took off an earring and handed it over: "Let this earring be my fare. Please quickly deliver it to the city for me."

"And these earrings are made of gold. Once we get to the city, find me an inn and buy me some clothes."

She climbed onto the ox cart using her hands and feet, then patted the dust off her body in disgust and closed her eyes, hoping that out of sight she would not be bothered.

The old man took off his earrings, and a golden light flashed in his eyes.

He was also knowledgeable and could tell at a glance that these earrings were valuable.

His originally indifferent expression immediately changed and he smiled in a flattering manner.

Yin Qin said: "Don't worry, young lady, I will definitely take care of it for you."

Wu Yunzhu closed her eyes and nodded with satisfaction seeing that he was so sensible.

But what she didn't see was that the man's sticky gaze swept across the hairpin on her head, the other earring on her ear, and the ruby bracelet that was faintly visible on her wrist.

He even looked greedily at her clothes with black marks on them.

A beautiful girl with so many good things on her, yet she has no family or servants around her.

The old man was driving carelessly, but what he was thinking in his mind was that this woman might be out to elope.

Seeing that he was rich but couldn't produce any money, he might have been robbed by thieves.

Then these remaining good things can't be given away cheaply to others...

The ox cart was moving slowly on the road, and Wu Yunzhu was a little wilted by the sun.

The old man took out a bamboo tube and handed it to her: "Are you thirsty, girl? Have a drink of water..."
