Chapter 777 Telling The Truth (1/2)
It was not difficult for Yun Shang to leave Jin City. All she needed to do was to ask someone to disguise as her and pretend to be ill abed in Prince Rui's mansion. Coincidentally, the incident happened between the Su clan and she was known to all in the city. And everyone knew that she had fallen ill after that.
Qian Liu had similar figure and temperament with her and she seldom followed Yun Shang, so she could disguise as Yun Shang.
However, Yun Shang was a little worried. It would take at least ten days to speed up from the Jin City to KY City, and now she couldn't afford to ride for a long time without sleep. It would take more than a month to go back and forth. Qian Liu wouldn't be able to pretend for that long. But Yun Shang didn't have time to think too much, so she had to play it by ear.
Qin Yi was worried about Yun Shang's health and didn't allow Yun Shang to ride, so Yun Shang had to come up with a compromise. She decided to go there by carriage, but she wouldn't have any rest along the journey. And the secret guards would arrive at every town ahead of Yun Shang, so as to change horses and replenish food and water for her.
Seeing the anxiety on Yun Shang's face, Qin Yi knew that it was not easy for her to make such a concession, so she stopped persuading her. She just covered the seat in the carriage with several quilts until she felt that it was thick enough to not be affected by the jolt. Then she prepared all kinds of food and medicine for her.
It was already dawn when Yun Shang left Jin City. As it was the morning rush hour, the guards at the city gate let her out casually.
It took Yun Shang thirteen days to arrive KY City. And it was already April. It was getting hot. Yun Shang only wore a light green dress with a moon-white lace mantle. She opened the curtain and looked out. The words ”KY city” over the city gate were particularly clear in the spring sun.
”Please open the door of the carriage for us to see what is inside.” A guard at the city gate came over and said to the coachman. Although he looked a little serious, his voice was gentle.
Yun Shang smiled. It seemed that Yingjie had managed KY city very well.
The door of the carriage was opened, and a guard leaned in to check. When he saw Yun Shang, he was stunned, and his dark face turned red.
”Well, sorry to bother you, madam.” The guard said hurriedly.
Yun Shang smiled and shook her head, ”It doesn't matter. You are just doing your duty.”
The guard's face turned even redder. He quickly retreated and closed the door of the carriage. ”Go in. Go in.”
The sound of the wheels was heard. Yun Shang lifted the curtain again and looked out. It was exactly the same as Yun Shang had imagined. On both sides of the street, there were many vendors selling goods, but they looked in order. The street was full of laughter, which was completely different from the first time Yun Shang came here two years ago.
