Chapter 631 Return to the Capital
Shang Jiao, Shang Rou and others had already run more than a mile.
"Royal brother, I really can't run anymore!" the little girl panted.
She had never run so far without stopping before, and she really couldn't run anymore.
"Then let's take a break!" Shang Jiao was also panting.
"Young Prince, where are we going?" Sasa looked at everything in front of him with horror.
It's dark everywhere and I don't know where they are going.
"There is only one road nearby. If we keep going forward, we can return to the capital." Shang Jiao pointed to the road under his feet.
He had just looked around and found that there was only one road in this area. He guessed that they came from this road.
If we continue along this road, we should be able to return to the capital.
"Then how long will it take us to walk?" Chunchun also looked worried.
They were all dizzy when they came, and they didn't know how long it would take them to walk back.
"It shouldn't be too long."
"How do you know?" Shang Jiao looked at the imperial sister in surprise.
They were all dizzy when they came. I don’t know how the imperial sister calculated it.
"I calculated it based on the time when Miyan woke up among us." The little girl looked serious.
They have been brought up in medicinal baths since childhood and have developed resistance to all medicinal herbs. They also wake up earlier than normal people after being drugged.
Therefore, she thought that they should not be too far from the capital, and everyone was very happy.
"Let's go quickly then."
As long as I return to the capital, I will be able to see my father and mother.
"We can't go into Beijing dressed like this. We'll be easily discovered." Shang Jiao tugged at his clothes.
What they were wearing was too conspicuous, and there were so many of them that if they entered the capital, they would easily attract other people's attention.
If they encounter a big bad guy or are found by those people, they will not be able to return to the palace.
"Then what should we do?"
"There should be a water source over there. Let's get our clothes dirty and dress up." Shang Jiao pointed to the bright area in front.
If I'm not mistaken, there should be a river there, so I can get my clothes dirty and no one will suspect me.
"Okay." The little guys all ran towards the river in front.
When they came up, they took off their clothes, soaked them in the water, and rubbed them in the mud.
After making sure it was as dirty as it could be, I hung it on a tree branch.
"It will probably take about two hours. It should be almost dawn by then, and then we can go into the city." Shang Jiao pointed to the clothes hanging on the trees.
By the time the clothes were dry, it was almost daybreak, and they would wear them and continue their journey.
"Yeah." The little guys nodded in unison.
They found a thicker tree and huddled together. Even though they were all extremely scared, no one made a sound.
They all have a pair of big eyes, staring at the surroundings vigilantly, afraid of being found by bad guys, and even more afraid of encountering ferocious beasts.
As the time came to the second half of the night, the little ones' eyes were not as bright as before.
"Young prince, what if we fall asleep and a wolf comes?" Sasa looked at the forest ahead with a worried look on his face.
Daddy said there were a lot of wolves in the forest, and what if they fell asleep and were eaten?
After hearing what she said, the other children also became nervous.
"Don't be afraid, I still have medicine here!" Shang Rou took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms.
He sprinkled the powder around them and then squatted back down.
"This can be used to treat poisonous insects. Even if a wolf comes, it will be poisoned. We can sleep peacefully now."
This poison powder was given to her by her mother, who said it could save her life at critical moments. She didn't expect that she would really use it this time.
After hearing what the little princess said, the little ones were completely relieved and no longer had any worries.
He closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep. When he opened them again, it was already dawn.
"Get up quickly!" Shang Jiao pushed Zuo Zuo and You You, and the little guys opened their eyes one after another.
"We have to leave quickly, otherwise we will be found by the bad guys." Shang Jiao was the first to stand up.
The others were very sleepy at the moment, but after hearing what the young prince said, they did not hesitate any more.
They all picked up their dirty clothes and put them on, smeared their little faces with black, and untied their hair, making it a mess.
When they returned to the road again, they had all turned into dirty little beggars.
As they chatted, they became completely different people, and Shang Jiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go quickly." This way we won't be discovered.
Even though their stomachs were growling with hunger, the little ones still held on strong.
He ran forward with his short legs. Just as Shang Rou said, this place was not too far from the capital.
But by the time they ran to the gate of the capital, it was already dawn and everyone was exhausted and out of breath.
Looking at the tightly closed gate of the capital city, the little ones all ran over.
"Let's just wait here, it should open soon."
"Yeah." The little ones nodded in unison and squatted at the gate of the capital.
After waiting for less than half an hour, the heavy door slowly opened and the little ones stood up excitedly.
As soon as the soldiers guarding the city opened the gate, they saw more than twenty dirty little beggars and were stunned.
"..."
Where do all these little beggars come from? They don't look that big.
When Shang Rou saw the soldiers guarding the city, her eyes lit up. She was about to introduce herself when she was stopped by Shang Jiao.
"Sister, let's go." Shang Jiao grabbed Shang Rou and gave her a wink.
Although the little girl was extremely anxious, she endured it when she saw the look in her brother's eyes.
Shang Jiao gave Zuo Zuo and You You a wink, and without waiting for the soldiers guarding the city to question them, he led them directly into the capital.
He ran all the way to an empty alley and then stopped.
"Royal brother, why did you stop me just now?" The little girl looked puzzled.
Those officers and soldiers all listen to my father. If we let them take them back to the palace, they will definitely be able to see my father and mother soon.
"Rou'er, people's hearts are treacherous. We can't trust others easily." Shang Jiao looked at his imperial sister like a little adult.
Although those people are my father's soldiers, I don't know whether they are good or bad. What if they are bribed by those bad guys?
Wouldn't that mean they are walking into a trap again? Now they are about to meet their father and mother, so they must not make any mistakes.
"Then what should we do?" The little girl was a little disappointed.
She was eager to see her mother and father, and her grandfather and grandmother must have been very anxious.
"Let's go find the senior brother. As long as we find him, we will be safe." Shang Jiao looked serious.
He didn't believe others, but he believed in his eldest brother. As long as they found his eldest brother, they would be able to see their father and mother soon.
"Well, then I'll go ask for directions." The little girl's eyes lit up.
The emperor's brother was right. They would be safe once they found the eldest brother. Just as he was about to ask passers-by, he was stopped by Shang Jiao again.
"Don't worry, I'll go ask for directions."
