Chapter 107
Pingcheng is far away from Shengjing, which could be said to be the guarantee of Yunxiao and the others' safety before today.

But now, it has become a knife hanging on Pei Yi's head.

No one knows that the emperor will order Pei Yi to be cut down one day.

All Yun Xiao and the others can do is to go all out.

All the things that could be left behind were left in the inn by Yun Xiao and the others.
A group of people travel lightly, travel day and night, eat and drink on the horse,
On the most day, I stopped and rested for two hours!
Just when Dongyun, who was the weakest in the group, was so tired that he wanted to vomit, Shengjing City was finally within sight.

Yun Xiao left Dongyun and Shisan outside the city to support her, while she took the rest of the hidden guards and headed for Shengjing in a low-key manner.

It's not long since he left Shengjing,
But everything seems to have changed.

Outside the originally prosperous city gate, there was a long queue to enter the city.
A little farther away, there are still many plainly dressed people wiping their tears.

Yun Xiao frowned, and told the hidden guards to disperse,

She herself walked up to an old man and helped him pick up the vegetable leaves scattered on the ground into the basket.

"thanks, thanks……"

The old man who was picking up vegetable leaves by himself suddenly saw someone squatting down to help him, wiped his face quickly, and looked up at Yun Xiao gratefully:
"It's really bothering you."

"It's just a hands-on effort."

Yun Xiao bent her lower lip, and took this opportunity to chat with the other party:
"Old man, I see that the gate of the city looks like it's under martial law.
Is something wrong? "

"You young man, are you from another place?"

Following Yun Xiao's line of sight to the city gate, the old man lowered his head and couldn't help but wipe his eyes again:

"The battle at Queyuguan has not yet ended, and King Zhenbei rebelled again.

The emperor dispatched the imperial guards to guard outside Shengjing, and he was afraid that some spies would sneak into the city and do something bad. Since yesterday, he has strictly checked all the people who entered and left the city.

Those of us who live outside the city of Shengjing used to take the vegetables we grew and the chickens and ducks we raised to the city to sell every morning, barely earning a little money to support our family.

Who would have imagined that today the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate actually said... that if they wanted to enter the city, apart from checking their household registration, each person would be charged a fee of [-] Wen to enter the city!
This... how much can we earn in a day! "

War has been the most costly existence since ancient times.
Not to mention that Dasheng is now full of wars, the dog emperor is in a hurry, and even the people's money for entering the city has to be collected, Yun Xiao is not too surprised.

After all, the dog emperor cares most about his throne,

As for the life and death of ordinary people...

Yun Xiao pursed her lower lip, and took advantage of the situation to ask the question she was most concerned about now:
"I remember that Prince Zhenbei seemed to be in Shengjing City before.

King Zhenbei's rebellion, isn't that son..."

"How can a son be as important as the throne?"

The old man shook his head, and while continuing to pick up the vegetable leaves, he said casually:

"The prince of Zhenbei was arrested a few days ago,
Yesterday evening, a notice was posted just now, saying that tomorrow at [-]:[-] noon, they will be asked to be executed at Caishikou! "

Tomorrow ask cut.

Well, it's still too late.

Yun Xiao reluctantly breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately began to worry about another problem——

Shengjing City is now surrounded by Imperial Guards,
If she wants to leave after robbing the prisoner, it may be another big problem.
