Chapter 85 Luo Yurou's face is rotten
When he saw the roasted pigeon that was already oozing with oil, three black lines slid down Bai Zhan's forehead. He clasped his hands together, saluted Jiang Nanyuan, and turned away.
Since it had already been roasted like this, the content of the letter was not that important. He went back and reported the truth to Xiao Yuchen.
After Xiao Yuchen knew about this, there was no expression on his face. He didn't care whether to read the letter or not.
He waved his hand, letting Bai Zhan retreat, and then closed his eyes to rest.
After Jiang Nanyuan finished eating the roasted pigeon, she closed her eyes for a while.
The next morning, they continued on their journey and walked for ten days. It was already April and the weather was gradually getting warmer, so everyone took off their thick cotton clothes.
After walking for more than ten days, their team finally got used to it. If there were no accidents, they would walk nearly 20 miles a day. In these ten days, they had walked 200 miles.
That day, they were resting in the same place, when suddenly a loud shout came from Jiang Nanfeng's direction. Jiang Nanyuan and the others all looked over there.
The person who shouted was Luo Yurou.
"Ah, why is my face like this? Master, can you please take a look at my face and see if there are any bugs on it?"
Luo Yurou had just sat down to rest when she felt itchy on her face. She subconsciously wanted to scratch it. It would have been fine if she didn't scratch it, but once she did, it was terrible because there were white maggots in her nails.
This made her so sick that she screamed.
Jiang Nanfeng turned his head to look at her face when he heard her scream, and took two steps back in fear, "You...how did your face become like this?"
Ever since she was injured on her face, Luo Yurou has been covering her face with a scarf every day. She had previously paid money to ask the police to help her buy this scarf.
So these days Jiang Nanfeng didn't know whether her face had recovered or not.
Seeing it with my own eyes now, I was terrified. The mark on her face that was hit by the whip had widened a lot, and the skin and flesh were turned inside out. Especially now, there were many white worms wriggling inside.
This made Jiang Nanfeng feel extremely nauseous.
Zhao and Jiang Xiuxiu, who were next to her, saw her face like that and moved away from her in disgust, as if they were afraid that the news would spread to them if they stayed close to her.
"You, stay away from us, it's disgusting."
Luo Yurou saw everyone's terrified expressions. She really wanted to find a mirror to see what she looked like now, but there was no mirror here for her to look at!
However, there really was one. Yue Li came over to watch the fun and kindly handed over a small bronze mirror he had brought with him.
Seeing the mirror, Luo Yurou took it immediately without even knowing who gave it to her. She looked at herself in the mirror and screamed even louder in fright. As soon as she let go, the mirror fell to the ground.
Yue Li quickly caught the mirror and put it away as a treasure. He had to look at his handsome face every day, and he couldn't let her drop this bronze mirror.
"It's you, you bitch, you did it on purpose, right? You deliberately made me like this, I'm going to kill you, kill you."
Luo Yurou finally saw clearly that the person who gave her the mirror was Yue Li, and immediately thought of the medicinal powder he gave her. There must be something wrong with that medicinal powder.
He must be jealous of my beauty, so he hurt me like this.
However, even if she thought of it now, her face had already become like this.
When Yue Li heard her accusing him, even if he really did it, how could he admit it?
Not only did he not admit it, he also put the blame on her.
"Hey, don't talk nonsense. What does it have to do with me that your face is like this? It's you who wore that veil all day long, and the wound is blocked and covered up. What does it have to do with me? Don't put all the blame on me."
Luo Yurou was even more upset when she heard him say this. "How is this possible? Why? Why didn't you remind me?"
Yue Li sneered and spread his hands innocently, "You didn't ask me."
"You..." Luo Yurou was choked by his words. Seeing him leave like that, she was unwilling to accept it. She quickly ran forward and tried to grab his sleeve.
Yue Li noticed the movement behind her, and when she rushed over, she threw away the folding fan in her hand to block her grabbing hand.
"What do you want to do? Are you sure you want to offend me? Aren't you afraid that I will poison you and kill you on the road to exile?"
Yue Li smiled an evil smile that almost drove Luo Yurou crazy. He was so beautiful, especially with that smile. Who was this woman? Why didn't her father capture him and hand him over to the emperor?
Jiang Nanfeng, who rushed over to stop her, happened to see Yue Li's smile. He was also attracted by the smile and stood there for a long time without coming back to his senses.
Not only him, but all the men present were almost dumbfounded. Yue Li didn't smile much before, and everyone had just started the exile, so they didn't have any other thoughts in their minds.
But now, especially Li Qiang and those officers, they rarely saw such a beautiful woman and had been drooling over her for a long time. However, because he was the Ninth Prince's man, they dared not act rashly.
Not only her, but the girls from other families are also pretty. If he could have a taste of them, he would be willing to die.
Luo Yurou was shocked by Yue Li's words just now. If he really poisoned her, no one would be able to seek justice for her even if he died.
It was strange. Ten days had passed. Logically, the letter she had sent to her father should have been delivered long ago. Why hadn't he sent anyone to pick her up?
Could something have happened? She had thought her father would take her back soon, and she had almost spent all the money she had in the past few days.
Now I have less than fifty taels of silver left. If I continue walking, I don’t know how long it will take?
She was really fed up with days like this.
Seeing that Li Qiang and the others looked at Yue Li and other women with something strange in their eyes, she curled her lips.
If I don't dare to offend anyone, is there anyone else I don't dare to offend?
She stared at Yue Li's back fiercely and then looked away. She walked towards Li Qiang. When Li Qiang saw her face, he showed disgust in his eyes and said in an unhappy tone: "Stop, don't come near me, and say what you want to say right there."
A cold light suddenly flashed in Luo Yurou's eyes, and her knuckles turned white from clenching them in her sleeves.
How could a lowly slave be so presumptuous in front of her?
She slowly lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes concealing the surging murderous intent. When she raised her eyes again, it had turned into a faint smile. "Master Li, may I have a moment to talk?"
As Luo Yurou spoke, half of the silver coin appeared from her sleeve.
Li Qiang naturally saw her little action, and for a moment he no longer felt disgusted. He smiled and walked with her to a deserted place.
"Tell me, what do you want to do?" Li Qiang had long been accustomed to them giving him money from time to time, and they must have something to ask for.
"Master Li, you and your brothers have worked hard on this journey of exile. This silver is my filial gift to you. Please give some to me."
Li Qiang was a little reluctant, but seeing the silver, he suppressed his nausea and walked forward. Luo Yurou whispered a few words in his ear.
The noise from their side did not attract anyone else. Everyone else was exhausted after walking for so long, so who would care whether Luo Yurou was still there or not?
When she finished speaking, Li Qiang showed a lewd smile on his face and took the silver from her hand.
