Chapter 18: Fighting



Dong Yishu and Li Yang rode on tall horses and led their men into the city. Along the outer city, they settled everyone in a remote post station in the city.

The carriage of Ye Liang and his wife followed from a distance, and finally stayed at the Ruyi Inn next door.

As soon as we entered the post station, the officers and soldiers started cracking their whips and shouting.

"All of you will live on the first floor. Pay two copper coins and live in the rooms. Those who don't pay will live in the yard. Prepare your own dinner! Those who don't have dinner can pay two copper coins to exchange for steamed bread."

"If you want to go out and buy something, you have to pay ten copper coins. Only one person from each family can go. If one person escapes, the whole family will be executed!"

After the officer finished speaking, he looked at everyone fiercely before walking away.

We had just left Yanjing City not long ago, so everyone still had some money. Everyone paid for a room.

Ye Xinran and his friends chose a room near the back, which had a large bunk bed that could accommodate ten people.

"Let's go and have dinner with mom! You must not have eaten well on the way!"

Ye Xinran did not refuse. Just as he was about to follow the two elders into the inn, he heard footsteps behind him. He turned around and said in surprise.

"My Lord, why did you come out?"

Gu Yanming was unusually a little embarrassed, but he still spoke in a cold and calm voice.

"I heard that my father-in-law and mother-in-law are here, so I came to meet them!"

In fact, he hadn't really thought of this, and it was only after the old prince reminded him that he finally reacted. He quickly told the officers and soldiers. They didn't dare to stop him, so they sent two people to follow him, which was a bit troublesome.
