Now we must find some animals as soon as possible to confirm whether these are true?

The old man looked at the secret guard lying on the stretcher and couldn't help but frowned. This person was definitely a member of the Zhang family who entered the Zhou family. He was very sure of it because when the secret guard followed the women of the family to marry into other families, he would print the outermost layer of flame on his wrist and add a mark belonging to the woman's husband's family.

On the outside of the man's flame, he saw the mark of a boat, which was the exclusive mark of the royal family, because the secret guards who protected him when he left had the same mark on their bodies. In recent years, there has been only one girl from the Zhang family who married into the royal family, and that is Zhang Qianqian, the daughter of the second son of the Zhang family and the concubine of the current prince.

Haha, I had inquired about the news of this concubine before. It seemed that she was not valued by the prince, but she gave birth to a son. The son seemed to be either eight or nine years old, about the same age as my granddaughter. I glanced at my granddaughter who was wiping her sweat, and continued to study this secret guard.

The firewood man wrapped in clothes that she had just seen was taller than her granddaughter, but not much taller. It was most likely that this secret guard was the one protecting Miss Sun of the Zhang family. It was estimated that something went wrong in Jinling City, which led to the accident of the prince's concubine of the Zhang family.

They were now far away from human habitation and had no idea why this secret guard would bring a stick figure that looked like a child. Or maybe, just like himself back then, the secret guard IE used his clothes to lure away the pursuers and never came back.

The people who were chasing him must have discovered that the person in his arms was not the one he really wanted, so they did not kill the secret guard directly, which led to this person escaping and holding on until his arrival.

But he was not good enough to say that the person who was chasing him did not know how to wipe out the whole thing and instead spared his life. There might be another person in this dense forest waiting to be rescued. This child must be rescued. It was a good opportunity for him to meet up with the Zhang family at the gate of Chuncheng and find out who the person was and whether the child being hunted was the son of the prince's concubine.

As far as Wang Huan was concerned, the current royal family was getting worse and worse, to the point that they could even allow their grandchildren to be hunted down like this.

Wang Huan rubbed his aching head. His thoughts kept going back to decades ago when the people around him took him on the run. He had really suffered a lot.

They quickened their pace, wanting to reach Chuncheng earlier to find out the situation. With Wang Shiyu constantly supplying them with cold boiled water and iced drinks, their journey was not that difficult.

Originally, Wang Shiyu wanted to take out all the parasols, but the old man wouldn't let her, worried that the secret guards might wake up suddenly because their bodies had been modified and some of them were immune to the knockout drug. The old man didn't want Wang Shiyu to take any risks.

They had food and drink along the way, which was already very good. It was much better than those who were traveling on an empty stomach.

They traveled very quickly and arrived at the gate of Chuncheng in just two and a half days. The gate of Chuncheng was now crowded with refugees gathered here, and there was a thatched hut where porridge was still being distributed.

He asked Wang Yizu and Wang Yixin to stay in the woods with their families and not come out. The old man took Wang Shiyu directly down the mountain to the place where porridge was distributed.

The pot at the city gate was indeed still steaming, and there was indeed rice porridge in it, but each person was limited to half a bowl, and the porridge was simply boiled in water and then served directly, and the rice and chestnuts were still very hard.

The old man took the pass and took his granddaughter into the city after paying the entrance fee. The situation in this city seemed to be much better than that in Mo City. There were actually a few restaurants open, but the food sold there was not cheap. It was estimated that food in the city was not cheap either, and water also cost money.

The people in the city seemed to be living a decent life, not as skinny as those people walking outside. Even though Wang Shiyu was holding so many things in her hands and kept feeding everyone, the people in her family were still very thin.

The weather was already hot along the way and I couldn't eat anything. What's more, it happened to be this day and I had to walk for seven or eight hours. How could I get a good rest?

If you don't get enough rest, don't eat well, walk such a long way and are so tired, you will definitely lose weight.

The old man inquired about the situation in the city. It turned out that there were more than a dozen deep wells in the center of Chuncheng. After the drought came, water could still be produced from those deep wells. So the people of Chuncheng did not leave their hometown, but stayed in Chuncheng. In this way, the things in the city were consumed continuously, and the prices naturally rose slowly.

Also, because there were many refugees from Chuncheng, they gathered outside the city. The mayor of Chuncheng was called Wei Chunfeng. Seeing so many people displaced and hungry, he booked a porridge shop. They only ate porridge once a day, half a bowl at a time, mainly because Chuncheng could not afford to provide more.

This little bit of food can only keep these people from dying, but it definitely won't fill them up. Although there is still some water in Chuncheng to supply the people in the whole city, there is not much food left. So every time, they can only boil the water and feed it to these people, hoping that they can last a little longer. Wei Chunfeng also hopes to save more people, but his ability is really limited.

The old man and Wang Shiyu walked around the city for a while and inquired about the current situation in Jinling. Only then did they know what had happened to the children of the Crown Prince and the Second Prince. They did not expect that so many things had happened in just one week.
