Chapter 253 Leaving the City
It was getting darker and the banquet in front was about to begin.
Sure enough, as the dinner time came, all the servants who were guarding outside left, and no one even gave him dinner to Master Lu Wan.
Lu Wan kept taking advantage of the night to successfully get into the crowd of servants coming and going and walk towards the side door.
When they went out, because they were really having sex, the gatekeeper called them to stop them and asked them which house they were from?
Lu Wan lied that they had given the betrothal gifts to the third girl in the past two days and temporarily recruited help from the mansion. Seeing that they were clean and did not take anything out of the mansion, the woman let them go out.
Outside the side door, Wu Ji was waiting in a mule cart, but until Lu Wan stood in front of him, he was still stupid and did not recognize him. He stretched his neck and looked at the door.
It was quite uncomfortable and a little uncomfortable when I wore a human skin mask for the first time, but Lu Wan was very happy to see that Wu Ji could not recognize him at all.
"Cousin Ang, we are here."
Suddenly hearing Lu Wan's voice, Wu Ji was shocked and stared at her for a long time before daring to whisper: "You... are Miss Lu?"
The woman in front of her had pale face and thin skin, and her face was covered with pockmarks. It was too different from her original appearance. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a difference between heaven and earth.
Lu Wan nodded to him, Wu Ji scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled, and quickly asked them to get in the car.
After they sat down, Wu Ji drove the mule cart and headed straight to Linglong Pavilion.
After a small and a half hour, the mule cart arrived at Linglong Pavilion, and Lan Ying had been waiting for them for a long time.
Although I had seen the human skin mask before, Lan Ying was still amazed when she saw the two of them looking completely different - it was so realistic. If she didn't say it, she wouldn't be able to tell that it was fake, completely like a native face.
Lan Ying suddenly felt that the 200 taels of silver was not spent in vain, it was too worth it.
After receiving Lan Ying, the master and servant brought the package and prepared to leave.
"Girl, I have helped you find a farmhouse in Liujiazhuang, ten miles away from the outskirts of the city. I told the owner of the household to take you in for one night. Lan Ying knew the way and would take you there. You rest for one night and wait until dawn tomorrow..."
Wu Ji was very careful. In such a strong and snowy day, they would not be able to rush to the road at night, which was too dangerous.
Now that the thirty years old is approaching, the inns and inns have closed down, so Wu Ji found a place for them to rest in advance.
"Cousin Ang, thank you!"
Lu Wan sincerely thanked Wu Ji.
After living for two lives, she has never left Beijing/city alone to go out, so she can't worry about many things.
"Girl, why don't I send you out of the city..."
Although Lan Ying had said goodbye to Wu Ji before this, Wu Ji was still very reluctant. If it weren't for Linglong Pavilion's errand, and his parents would have to take care of him, he really wanted to go with Lan Ying.
Lu Wan looked at Wu Ji's reluctance to look at Lan Ying, and couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
She said guiltily: "Cousin Ang, it's really not easy for us to travel this time, so I dare not disclose it at all. Please forgive me."
Wu Ji knew a lot of people in Beijing/city. If someone saw him sending them out of the city and he would investigate them in the future, it would definitely cause suspicion.
Besides, Li Yi has also met Wu Ji.
Thinking of this, she reminded him: "Cousin Wu, if King Yi finds you, you must keep it a secret for us."
Wu Ji nodded, "Don't worry, girl, what I can afford is that you only remember to write a letter to me when you arrive at your place in the future, if so..."
Speaking of this, Wu Ji blushed and looked at Lan Ying: "If I have time in the future, I can still see you."
Lan Ying said, "I understand, you have said this sentence more than a hundred times."
Wu Ji was still worried and said to Lu Wan: "Girl, I know that I am not in accordance with the rules, but I still want to take care of Lan Ying more. She is impatient and prone to impulsiveness, and can easily suffer losses when she is outside."
Lu Wan smiled and said, "I can do it, Cousin Wu must take good care of himself, we will have a date later."
After saying goodbye to Wu Ji, the three of them got on the rented carriage and rushed to the city gate.
The New Year will be celebrated the day after tomorrow. At this time, everyone has returned home and there are fewer pedestrians outside, and even fewer people like Lu Wan and others will rush out of the city.
The wind and snow are getting heavier and closer to the city gate.
Lu Wan's heart was pounding - even if she was wearing a mask, the three women left the city overnight, and it was still a pity.
It has been two hours since I came out. I wonder if the Lu family has noticed that they have escaped and will send someone to chase them?
If she was chased back, she would escape from the monks privately. With the hatred of Ye and the others towards her, she would probably be beaten to death.
She twisted her hands nervously and involuntarily pinched the copper coin wrapped in the red rope on her wrist.
The copper coins were cold, just like the expression of a man looking at her from time to time.
At this moment, she suddenly missed that man a little.
Speaking of which, she didn't say goodbye to him.
She thought that he must be busy today with so many things.
Moreover, since that quarrel, he refused to see her again. In this way, it should be a long time before he knew the news of her departure.
OK, this is exactly what she wants - she will be together with him and will be left with no more involvement...
Although I thought about it this way, my chest was blocked and it hurt a little.
Thinking of him deliberately raising his wrist in front of everyone and showing her the bracelet she gave him, Lu Wan couldn't help but smile a bitter smile, but his eyes turned red.
If he knew about it, she would run away without saying a word, and I am afraid she would scold her for being heartless again.
Lancao looked at her expression and guessed her thoughts. She couldn't help but ask quietly: "Girl, will we still come back after we find the young master?"
Lu Wan put away her face and wiped her eyes, and smiled bitterly: "I haven't left yet, why are you asking again? "
Lancao said: "Actually, today I saw Your Highness canceling the engagement with the third girl. I wanted to persuade the girl to stay for a moment..."
"But I also know that the girl can't let go of the young master and is in a hurry to find him, so I was wondering, if I find the young master in the future, can the girl bring the young master back? After all, Your Highness..."
Lu Wan shook her head, interrupted her words, and said in a muffled voice: "I don't like Beijing/City, and I don't like the palace. I don't want to come back..."
Lan Ying didn't want to see Lu Wan sadly, so she said to Lancao: "Are you still afraid that no one of us girls likes? I'm afraid that the girl will be snatched to her in the future."
Lan Ying's words diluted the sadness of parting, and the three of them couldn't help laughing again.
While talking, the city gate had arrived.
The coachman drove over the carriage and was stopped by the guards.
The coachman reported that he was leaving the city. The guard raised the curtains with his sleeves and glanced at the carriage. Seeing that there were three rough-looking little women, he was not interested in checking them carefully and waved his hand to let them go.
The master and servant both breathed a sigh of relief.
And just as the carriage walked towards the city gate exit, a man's voice suddenly came from behind, "Stop!"
When Lu Wan heard the sound, his whole body stiffened and his scalp became numb.
