When Hua Yun heard Sang Ye say this, her guess was confirmed.

"If that's the case, then things will be much more difficult."

He pressed his forehead and said, "If we want to investigate the drought situation, we have to take the official road."

"We can get some information from the victims and visit different towns to understand the situation of the drought clearly."

Sang Ye looked worried, "I didn't think it through before."

"I didn't expect something like this would happen."

Before this happened, he never thought that a disaster victim would do such a thing.

He thought there might be disaster victims, but he didn't expect that the victims would do such a thing.

Or maybe he rarely goes out and doesn't understand human nature well enough.

Hua Yun didn't know what to do for a moment.

"How about we disguise ourselves as refugees?" Shangguan Quan raised his hand and expressed his idea.

"We pretended to be an ordinary wealthy family. After our parents died in an accident, we brothers and sisters lived together."

"This time we encountered a drought and had to flee to seek refuge with relatives."

Sang Ye and Hua Yun looked at each other and signaled Shangguan Quan to continue.

Shangguan Quan clenched his right fist and lightly hammered his left palm. "Look, if we continue to move forward in the carriage like this, we'll be too conspicuous. It's easy for something like what happened today to happen again."

"If we dress a little worse, get a little dirty, and pretend to be a family fleeing famine, we won't attract much attention."

Hua Yun weighed the options and said, "Master Sang, I think the third brother's idea is a good one."

"We're attracting too much attention this way, and it's easy for someone to find out in advance and hide something."

"Why not disguise yourself and pretend to be a refugee? Maybe it will be easier."

Sang Ye said, "In that case, we can't ride in a carriage, we don't have an ice basin, and we can't wash every day."

"Can we bear such a hot day?"

He pointed at Zheng Xingguang and asked, "Can this guy bear it?"

Hua Yun and Shangguan Quan looked at each other. They had actually forgotten about this precious Prince Zheng.

"Are you talking about me?" Zheng Xingguang seemed to notice and turned to look at Sang Ye and the other two. "What are you talking about me?"

Sang Ye and the other two didn't dare to say anything.

Mu Pingping dared to say it, and even said it in a joking tone, "It is impossible for Prince Zheng to pretend to be a disaster victim in such a hot day."

"Master Sang and his men want to pretend to be disaster victims and continue on their way. This way they can avoid a lot of trouble and danger, but they are worried that you won't be able to handle it."

Zheng Xingguang looked up at the bright sun in the sky and said honestly, "I really can't stand this scorching heat."

"How am I supposed to get by on this hot day without an ice basin and a carriage?"

Mu Baobao wrinkled his nose and snorted softly, "Little brother, you are so clean."

"Baby, you're just being pretentious." Mu Pingping corrected him, "You can't say that Prince Zheng is being pretentious. His life since childhood was different from ours."

Mu Baobao tried hard to remember the pretentiousness, "But, little brother is just pretentious. We can all stand it, but he can't."

Zheng Xingguang felt very aggrieved, "Baby, it's too hot."

"It's so hot, you'll get heatstroke without an ice basin."

Mu Baobao said, "We didn't have an ice basin at home before, and we didn't see anyone suffering from heatstroke. Even in the village, there were no ice basins, and few people suffered from heatstroke."

"Little brother, you can't rely on ice basins every time it's hot."

Zheng Xingguang felt even more aggrieved. He just couldn't adapt.

It was okay in Xingzi Village before. It wasn't that hot there and he could survive without an ice basin.

But it's too hot now, and he really can't stand it without an ice basin.

"Baby, let's not talk about this anymore..."

"Did the little brother agree to pretend to be a disaster victim?"

"Baby, why do you want to pretend to be a disaster victim?"

“I’ve never played it.”

Zheng Xingguang was speechless, "Baby, this is not a joke."

There was a huge look of confusion on Mu Baobao's face. "If we're not playing, why are we pretending to be disaster victims? We're not real disaster victims."

"Little brother, don't you want to play the victim of the disaster?"

Zheng Xingguang didn't know how to explain it, and looked at Sang Ye and the others for help.

Sang Ye said, "Prince Zheng, the baby is too young, she can't understand much."

"Besides, it's better for her if she understands it this way."

Zheng Xingguang didn’t quite understand. He didn’t understand why the baby wanted to pretend to be a disaster victim.

"Big brother," Mu Baobao jumped in front of Sang Ye, looking expectant, "Are we going to pretend to be disaster victims?"

Sang Ye asked gently, "Baby, this is not a joke, you know?"

Although Mu Baobao felt a little regretful, he obeyed obediently, "So what are we going to do if we pretend to be disaster victims?"

Sang Ye was very patient with her. "This will reduce trouble and danger, and maybe we can better investigate some things."

"It's just that Prince Zheng can't stand the days without a carriage and an ice basin, so we can't pretend to be disaster victims."

Mu Baobao hissed at Zheng Xingguang, "Little brother, you are so useless."

"Who said I'm useless!" Zheng Xingguang blushed. "Isn't it just pretending to be a disaster victim? I don't have a carriage or an ice basin. I agree."

Never let your baby look at him like this.

Mu Baobao covered his mouth and laughed secretly.

Sang Ye was helpless because the little girl had so many little ideas.

With Zheng Xingguang's consent, Sang Ye discussed with Hua Yun and Shangguan Quan how to pretend to be refugees from the famine and how to get to Xingzi Village.

"Didn't we go to a town called Orange Town before?" Hua Yun said, "I remember there were several wealthy families in that town. We can pretend to be one of them."

"No, it's too close." Shangguan Quan shook his head. "We need to go to a town that's not too close, but not too far away, but where no one can find out our true identity."

"If our details are discovered, it will be even more dangerous for us."

Sang Ye agreed, "Master Shangguan's words make sense."

"Fake identities... There are disaster victims everywhere now, so maybe it would be better if we fabricate one."

Hua Yun said, "It has to be fabricated based on facts. Fabricating it out of thin air has too many loopholes."

The three of them discussed the matter in detail.

Mu Pingping was mainly responsible for listening and occasionally offering some suggestions.

Mu Baobao and Zheng Xingguang sat nearby playing and talking like little kids.

"It's quite cool in this mountain." Zheng Xingguang found that it was not so hot after staying here for a while.

Mu Baobao was used to it. "It's supposed to be cooler in the mountains."

"In our village, every year when it's too hot, some people take a nap in the cooler places in the mountains, but they are not allowed to go inside the mountains."

"Little brother, do you think it would be fun if we walked through the mountains?"

Zheng Xingguang said, "It's impossible to walk through the mountains."

"In the mountains... Ouch, who hit me?"

When he looked up, he saw a squirrel standing on a tree next to him, holding a pine nut in its hand.

The squirrel seemed very angry, staring at Zheng Xingguang with anger in his eyes.
