Chapter 100 It’s over, it must be coming for them!
"Master Bucha, between immediate execution and keeping alive, we will definitely choose the latter.
And there are officials accompanying you, so you don’t have to worry at all! ”
Ran Qingxuan really wanted to go out and buy things, but as for running away, she really had no such idea.
She could run away with Gu Yanchen, but not the women of the Gu family. Even if they ran away together, they were such a big target and they couldn't hide for the rest of their lives.
It is better to go to the Northwest safely and live a good life in the future.
Moreover, although the hunting technology in ancient times was not advanced, the criminal law after catching someone was no joke. Not only could the person be killed in a matter of minutes, but there was no possibility of appeal.
As for the Li family's escape, it was because Bu Wei didn't want to make a big deal out of it. Since they were able to catch the people, they certainly wouldn't report it and cut off their own future.
Bu Fei seemed to be a little hesitant, but anyone who saw Gu Yanchen's "extremely weak" appearance could not help but shake their heads.
For such a person, it would be a problem for him to walk, let alone run away. If he just sits in the car and drives it, it is not impossible for him to go.
"Then let's go! Just one thing, you'd better not play any tricks after you go out, otherwise it will be the women in your family who will suffer!"
"Don't worry, we will be honest and only buy things."
However, after seeing who the official was who went shopping with him, Ran Qingxuan curled his lips in obvious speechlessness.
Dai Kun leaned lazily against the back door of the inn, looking at Li Si in the carport with a look of unsatisfied expression. Ran Qingxuan glanced back and forth between their faces, and suddenly felt nauseous.
He cursed inwardly "bastards" and then followed He Xun out. This time, the two of them were responsible for buying the necessities for the journey.
But when he passed by Dai Kun, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the lustful look in his eyes. Ran Qingxuan pretended not to see it and jumped onto the donkey cart swiftly.
"Mr. He, let's go! The sooner we go, the sooner we can return."
The two men saw that they were sitting on the donkey cart and didn't say anything. They walked on the left and right of the donkey respectively. It seemed like they were escorting them, but in fact they were preventing the two from escaping on the road.
After leaving the inn, the group walked eastward for another quarter of an hour. Gradually, there were more and more people on the road, and Ran Qingxuan would look around curiously from time to time.
After all, she got married right after traveling here, and she had never properly visited the ancient market.
Gu Yanchen watched Ran Qingxuan's actions silently, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart, but then he just thought that she had never been far away, and was perhaps just curious about the people and things outside the capital.
After walking a few steps forward, He Xun pointed to the place with the heaviest traffic ahead and said, "You are only allowed to buy things where we can see you, and you are not allowed to leave without permission."
Ran Qingxuan did not agree directly. After all, she had emptied the Gu family's storehouse before the house was confiscated and the family was exiled. If she followed the officials, how could she get things out?
If she buys more when there are already some ready-made ones, then she is really being taken advantage of!
And there is a more important point. She had previously agreed with the Qi family to send a batch of quick-acting heart-saving pills to Baoning Hall in Weishan County. With the officials following her, it was not convenient for her to go out to get the goods.
Then he showed an awkward expression, jumped off the donkey cart, walked to He Xun and whispered: "Master He, our family needs a lot of things, and I'm afraid it will delay our return time if we go with you.
And after buying it, I want to take my husband to Baoning Hall in the county town to buy some medicine. Why don’t we set a time and place and come back after we buy the medicine? ”
He Xun originally wanted to refuse. After all, the Gu couple were exiles. If they left on their own and ran away, it would not be as easy as just keeping his job as an official.
Ran Qingxuan knew there was a chance when he saw He Xun's expression, but he also knew that this guy was very stubborn. If he didn't strike while the iron was hot and talk to him about some reason, he would probably have no chance when he refused.
"I know you are afraid that my husband and I will run away, but you also know that I have a grandfather who is a tutor, and he has the final say in front of the emperor.
If I really didn't want to be exiled at that time, I would have just asked my grandfather to save me from suffering, and I wouldn't have wanted to run away until now, don't you think? ”
"Besides, my husband's family is still in the inn. If they run away, they will be beheaded. As my mother-in-law's only remaining son, he will not leave alone without caring about his family's lives!"
He thought about it and felt that what Ran Qingxuan said made sense, so he set a time limit of half an hour and warned the two before letting them leave.
Watching the two people driving away in the donkey cart, He Xun felt a little worried. Dai Kun next to him put his hand on his shoulder and said kindly.
"How about I go and watch them, and you buy the things and wait here, so we can borrow their donkey cart to bring the dry food back."
He Xun thought that he could do the shopping by himself, so he immediately asked him to catch up with the two of them.
Dai Kun agreed and chased after him. After turning a corner, he quickly turned back and looked at He Xun with a barely perceptible murderous intent in his eyes.
But it just happened that Ran Qingxuan was afraid that Gu Yanchen would be cold sitting next to him, so he stopped the donkey cart and walked to the back and pretended to take out a blanket from it.
It was at this moment that the scene of Dai Kun coming back came into her sight. The distance of more than ten meters was enough for Ran Qingxuan to see the expression on his face clearly.
Covering Gu Yanchen's legs with a blanket, Ran Qingxuan said calmly, "There is definitely something wrong with this Dai Kun. His identity is definitely not as simple as an escort officer."
"Do you see anything?"
Gu Yanchen looked back and did not see Dai Kun.
The donkey cart moved slowly forward, and the two people sitting on it talked in low voices as if they were chatting about family matters.
"I suspect he might be the emperor's spy planted in this escort team. On the surface, he is escorting the exiled prisoners, but in reality he is monitoring our family's every move, especially yours."
"But why didn't he follow, but stayed instead?"
Gu Yanchen didn't see the look in Dai Kun's eyes when he looked at He Xun, but Ran Qingxuan saw it clearly.
He frowned and thought for a moment, then looked up with shock in his eyes.
"I have a feeling that He Xun will definitely get into trouble. If he does, there will be no one around us to witness it, and we are criminals, so we will have to accept whatever he says."
Seeing that Ran Qingxuan was a little anxious, Gu Yanchen immediately pulled the blanket up a little, just enough to cover his chin.
Since it was the first time to use the walkie-talkie over a long distance, Gu Yanchen still felt a little nervous after giving the instructions.
A few minutes later, he noticed something going on in the intercom in his hand, and immediately pulled the blanket up a little, just enough for Ran Qingxuan next to him to hear it.
"Master, we have caught up with them. What should we do next?"
"Hold still, wait till the enemy makes a move before catching them in the act!"
"yes!"
There was no more sound after this voice. Gu Yanchen looked at the person beside him with excitement in his eyes.
"Qingxuan, nothing you take out is not against the will of heaven. This is the first time I know that information can be transmitted without face-to-face communication."
Ran Qingxuan smiled very happily. If he knew more secrets about her, she wondered how he would react.
