Amidst the noise, Ergou drank the medicine with an expressionless face.

Watching Su Su and Li Xinglan bickering, he felt a strange feeling in his heart.

The shops are always quiet, and the mothers and sisters-in-law always speak softly.

My father and brothers are usually very serious and formal.

Even the sparrows my mother raised were chirping softly. The huge commercial building was always so silent.

This small carriage seems to always be like this, very lively.

"Na! Here you go!"

After acting enough, Li Xinglan took out a household registration paper from his arms and handed it to him.

He took it and looked at it, and saw that it said, "Wang Fugui, Wuling County, born in the second year of Yong'an."

Seeing Ergou's disdain for the name "Wang Fugui," Su Su explained, "On the day I was arrested, Brother Gou happened to be going to the city to get your household registration. It took a lot of effort and cost a lot of money. Brother Gou felt really bad for you."

"Fifty taels! I spent fifty taels!" Li Xinglan covered the purse at his waist and continued with great sorrow.

As he spoke, he spread his hands and raised one eyebrow. "The main reason is that you never tell me your real name, so I have to choose a name that suits your image and temperament."

Hearing this, Su Su glared at him and said comfortingly, "Although the name sounds a bit like a dog, at least we are not illegal immigrants anymore."

After a long silence, Ergou nodded to show his acceptance.

Since "Ergou" has already barked, it doesn't matter if there is another "Wang Fugui". They are all dogs anyway.

-

Now that the wounded have woken up, Li Xinglan waved his hand and decided to gallop straight to the imperial city.

Blind Chen shouted "Great!" and drove the horse and carriage very fast, and the road was smooth and steady.

It is less than three hundred miles away from the imperial city.

On the third day, at dawn, we finally arrived at our destination.

Qixia’s imperial capital, Jingyun City.

The morning mist had not yet dissipated and the air was still damp.

Looking at the three majestic characters on the city gate, Su Su and Blind Chen were so excited that all their tiredness disappeared.

Still queuing up for inspection, Su Su felt a little guilty, afraid that Ergou would be exposed.

I don't know how strict the inspection is in this big city.

After a while, she came to the conclusion, damn, the inspection is very strict.

Seeing the man in front of her being taken away for further questioning because of his accent and registered residence, Su Su became even more worried.

She looked at Ergou, then pulled the big dog for help.

Li Xinglan turned around and asked with a tone full of gloating, "Do you know what will happen if you are caught falsifying your household registration?"

"How...how..."

Su Su always felt that Li Xinglan's smile was malicious, and he was going to start "playing with swords" again.

"After being severely beaten with thirty sticks, he was exiled to southern Xinjiang to work in the mines."

Su Su looked at Blind Chen with a bitter face. After seeing him nod to confirm that what he said was true, she pulled Ergou again.

He whispered, "Why don't we go into the city? Your injuries haven't healed yet. If you get caught, you'll be in real trouble."

Ergou remained silent.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Su Su became a little anxious.

It will be their turn soon. Ergou can barely stand. If he is caught and beaten with thirty sticks, then at this time next year, she will have to burn paper to commemorate this golden little wild king.

"Calm down." Li Xinglan put his hands behind his head, looking relaxed and at ease. "Isn't our brother Ergou a tough little mute? The kind who can't even make a fart."

Although the words were a bit sarcastic, they successfully dispelled Su Su's concerns.

Yes, yes, yes, Ergou can’t speak, so there is no problem with his accent.

The information on the household registration is not false, and the seal is also real. After all, it was bought at a high price. There are many corrupt officials in troubled times.

Soon, it was the turn of several people to be questioned.

"Wang Fugui?" The gatekeeper held the household registration paper with a suspicious tone.

I always feel that the child in front of me looks too noble, which doesn't quite match the name.

Ergou said nothing. Su Su, who was standing behind him, quickly explained, "This is my distant cousin. He can't speak."

Then, she handed her household registration paper to the gatekeeper, "I'm his cousin, Wang Xiaocui."

Taking Su Su's household registration paper, the gatekeeper looked at Ergou, then at her, and his face darkened. "Relatives? You two? What do you look like?"

Su Su "......"

The three company-mates of the gatekeepers' serious questioning made her so angry that she almost bit her back teeth.

Damn it, I was careless and forgot about this.

Li Xinglan had already passed the inspection and was being searched, clearly trying to suppress a smile.

That was a close call! I almost laughed out loud.

"So it's a distant house! A really distant house!"

Su Su's face was puffed up with anger, and she wanted to kick Li Gou, who was gloating over her misfortune, away.

Realizing that he had accidentally hurt the little girl, the gatekeeper felt a little embarrassed. After opening their packages and checking them, he handed the household registration papers back to the two of them.

"No offense, come on in."

Su Su was a little stunned by the generous apology. She blinked and said repeatedly, "It's not a big deal, it's a reasonable suspicion."

The little episode passed quickly, and with cheerful little steps, they finally stepped into the imperial city.

Su Su shouted excitedly in her heart, Jingyun City! Here I come!
