The prince is very cruel

He cooked a bowl of hot medicinal soup and gave it to Yuan Xiang to drink, and then ate some eggs to replenish his strength.

Although Yuan Xiang still had a runny nose and a low fever, he was obviously in better spirits and had recovered a lot.

After a short pause, Guan Ning erased all traces of his existence, then carried Yuan Xiang onto the horse, jumped on his hind legs, and rushed south through the snow-capped mountains.

He knew the old emperor's character very well and knew that he would definitely send a large number of troops to pursue him, so he chose a more difficult mountain road that would make it difficult for a large army to follow.

Five days later, at noon on January 5th, a ray of warm sunshine rose in the sky.

"Look, look!" Yuan Xiang exclaimed, and her red face, which was frozen red, suddenly showed a smile, as pure as a white lotus under the snow-capped mountains.

Guan Ning was sitting on his horse when he suddenly woke up from his half-closed state, his eyes fixed on the layers of light and shadows under the snow-capped mountains in the distance.

"That is……"

"It's a city!"

"We finally got out. If we don't find the city, we will starve to death!" Yuan Xiang said with a smile.

Guan Ning immediately took out a map and looked at it. "If my guess is correct, this should be Lu County. From here, we can go south for another three days on the official road and we will reach Zizhou."

"It's very close, but it's still not my father-in-law's sphere of influence."

Yuan Xiang shyly said: "Who is your father-in-law?"

"You haven't even proposed marriage, so don't try to establish a relationship with me!"

Guan Ning smiled and said, "Okay, forget it then."

"you!"

Yuan Xiang turned around and glared at her, getting angry on the spot. The little girl was simple-minded.

"Hahaha!"

"Propose marriage, propose marriage, I must propose marriage." Guan Ning immediately changed his words.

Yuan Xiang gave him a fierce look, as if to say that this was more like it.

"Let's go into the city, eat something, wash up, get some information, and then set off." Guan Ning said.

Yuan Xiang frowned: "But didn't you say to stay away from crowded places?"

"What if we get discovered and chased after us?"

"That old scoundrel, the emperor, has no good intentions. My father is so loyal, yet he's putting me under house arrest to force my father to go to the front lines!"

Speaking of this, she felt so angry that her teeth were itching.

Guan Ning laughed and said, "Silly boy, of course we can't just go in like this. We have to disguise ourselves. You dress as a man, and I... will dress as an old man."

"As for the old emperor's actions towards your father, they are also very complicated. There is no such thing as pure friendship between the monarch and his subjects. It's better for you not to understand."

Yuan Xiang seemed to understand, but her round eyes suddenly lit up with interest: "Are you playing the old man?"

"I'll help you!"

"Can you disguise yourself?" Guan Ning looked unconvinced.

"Tsk, I'm a woman too, okay? Who doesn't know how to put on makeup?"

"Get off the horse, quickly." Yuan Xiang urged, feeling playful.

Guan Ning jumped off the horse half-believingly and let her whitewash him.

Everything was normal at first, but as the girl was drawing, she suddenly disguised Guan Ning as an old woman. When Guan Ning looked at the ditch, he almost laughed to death.

"Hahaha!"

"Giggle..."

"Guan Ning, it's a pity that you're not a woman. You're pretty, but a little too old, hahaha!"

Guan Ning rolled his eyes speechlessly and had to do it himself, changing it into an old man with gray hair and dark skin.

Yuan Xiang put on Guan Ning's clothes. Although they didn't fit her well, she had good facial features and with a little disguise, she looked like a nobleman.

Half an hour later, the two entered the city very smoothly.

As soon as I came in, I saw the wanted poster. Yuan Xiang was not there, but Guan Ning was on the list. All the people related to the Guan family were wanted, and the reward was three thousand taels of gold!

Even those who provide clues can receive one hundred taels, which is a terrifying reward.

Guan Ning sneered. If anyone dared to issue a warrant for the arrest of his family, he would make the old emperor pay sooner or later!

After disappearing from the crowd, Guan Ning and the other man came to an inn, where they chose to take a short break and have something to eat.

In the lobby, the fire was steaming and the noise was bustling.

"Did you hear that?"

"Your Majesty recently offered a reward of three thousand taels of gold for the head of the imperial envoy, the one who was chased here by Zhao Tai last time!"
