Chapter 502: Life Outside the Capital
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Li Xiaoran, don’t worry. I’m here!” At this moment, a familiar voice sounded.
At this critical moment, Luo Cheng rushed over with his men.
When Luo Cheng rushed over and saw that he couldn’t enter the farmstead, he wanted to find Li Xiaoran’s carriage.
In case, Luo Cheng placed tracking incense in Li Xiaoran’s carriage.
Therefore, following this fragrance, Luo Cheng found the carriage that Li Xiaoran and Meng Yan had parked in the farmstead.
Next, Luo Cheng brought people to occupy the farmstead and prepared to go to the farmstead to look for Li Xiaoran.
However, the sudden appearance of maniacs slowed Luo Cheng and the others down, so Li Xiaoran and the others bumped into Luo Cheng and the others when they ran out of the farmstead.
With the addition of Luo Cheng’s men, the crazy people were quickly dealt with.
Then, the group got into the carriage.
After leaving the carriage Li Xiaoran and Meng Yan were in, Luo Cheng brought three other carriages.
Soon, the four carriages rushed out of the farmstead and left this dangerous place.
Li Xiaoran quickly realized that something was wrong, so she asked, “Husband, why arent we going back to the capital?”
“At this moment, the capital is the most dangerous place. If we enter the capital now, we’ll be trapped. Our best chance of survival is outside the capital!” Luo Cheng replied.
“That’s right! Madam, I divined that the door of life is outside the capital. The capital is a dead end now. We can’t go back!” Wu Qinghe, who was sitting in the corner, explained.
Since Wu Qinghe had divined it, there was no mistaking it.
Shu Ruyue finally heaved a sigh of relief and leaned against the carriage.
“I thought we were just protecting Xiaoran’s safety today. I didn’t expect such a crisis to happen! Xiaoran’s intuition is indeed very accurate. She stopped the carriage away from the entrance. If we had stopped the carriage in that farmstead back then, we would have been doomed!”
At this moment, Meng Yan, who was in another carriage, also gushed about Li Xiaoran’s foresight to Ma Chongshan.
After Duan Sha heard this, she also felt admiration for Li Xiaoran.
“Didn’t you notice? This isn’t the way back to the capital!” Princess Ning Xin looked outside and asked curiously.
The Eldest Princess was resting with her eyes closed. When she heard Princess Ning Xin’s words, she said directly, “At this moment, the capital must be in chaos. Going back now is the worst thing we could possibly do. Staying away from the capital is the right thing to do!”
Princess Ning Xin was shocked and asked in confusion, “Auntie, how did this happen?”
“Why don’t you think about it carefully? Such a big thing happened in the farmstead not far from the capital, but we still haven’t seen the soldiers and horses from the capital coming over. Something big must have happened in the capital. If something big happens in the capital, the city gate will definitely be closed. At that time, no one can enter! Aren’t we sending ourselves to our deaths by returning to the capital at this time?” The Eldest Princess explained.
Only then did the group understand the seriousness of the matter.
The carriage traveled for an unknown period of time. In the end, before night fell, they finally entered a very hidden farmstead.
After entering, Luo Cheng looked at Li Xiaoran, who was sleeping in his arms, then he picked her up carefully.
Li Xiaoran wasn’t deep asleep, so she woke up when Luo Cheng touched her.
“Husband, where are we?”
“A very safe place! Don’t worry, you can get a good sleep there!” When Li Xiaoran saw they were at a safe place, she was no longer sleepy.
“I’m a little hungry, so let’s eat first!”
Luo Cheng agreed and got out of the carriage with Li Xiaoran.
The people in the other carriages got out and looked around under the moonlight.
There were usually only a few servants taking care of the farmstead.
When they saw that the host family was here, they quickly came out to welcome them.
Zi Zheng, who had already rushed over, asked the servants to prepare food and hot water.
Everyone ate first, then washed up and rested.
Duan Sha needed someone to take care of her because of her health.
Therefore, Shu Ruyue stayed in the same room as Duan Sha at night.
Meng Yan and Ma Chongshan were already dating, so the two of them simply stayed in the same room.
The Eldest Princess, Princess Ning Xin and Wei Li lived in a big room, and the others had their own rooms.
After the trouble during the day, everyone was tired.
After Li Xiaoran washed up and changed her clothes, she didn’t want to move anymore.
Seeing that she was exhausted, Luo Cheng carried her to the bed.
Perhaps because she smelled the familiar scent on Luo Cheng, Li Xiaoran fell asleep with peace of mind.
Everyone slept surprisingly soundly that night without a single dream.
When Li Xiaoran woke up the next morning, she heard birds chirping outside.
If not for the fact that everything around her looked very unfamiliar, Li Xiaoran would have thought that she had returned to Sichuan.
As soon as Li Xiaoran sat up, Luo Cheng, who was reading the letter, heard the noise and walked over.
“Li Xiaoran, you’re awake? Hurry up and wash your face!”
Li Xiaoran looked at Luo Cheng and suddenly said, “Husband, why do I feel like
I’m in a dream?!”
“It’s not a dream. It’s true! I don’t know what happened in the capital, but no news can spread out now, and no one can send the news in!” Luo Cheng briefly explained the situation.
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately perked up.
“Do you think perhaps one of your brothers is rebelling?”
“It’s hard to say. It’s possible! Why don’t you think that the emperor had set up a trap to lure some people out?” Luo Cheng said.
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she lowered her head and thought about it.
“That’s possible!”
“I’m here, so you don’t have to worry about these things! Auntie, Ningxin, and your friends are still in the farmstead. I’ll have to trouble you to entertain the guests for the next period of time!” Luo Cheng said.
Li Xiaoran understood what Luo Cheng meant and nodded.
“Don’t worry! I’ll persuade them to stay for the time being and stay out of trouble!”
Luo Cheng nodded and left the matters in the house to Li Xiaoran.
After Li Xiaoran washed up, she went to look at the kitchen.
At this moment, the chef in the farmstead had already prepared some food, so Li Xiaoran took a look. Although there were not many varieties, the quantity was enough interference, so she was relieved.
At this moment, Princess Ning Xin woke up from a nightmare!
