If he is being targeted, he must make a decision early. He must not be like before, being blocked in front of him without noticing.

After a long time, it was finally their turn.

Chutian has prepared fifty taels of silver ingots.

A rebel soldier glanced at Chu Tian, ​​"What's in the coffin? Open it and take a look."

"Master Jun!" Chu Tian said quickly, "My mother suffered from smallpox and passed away three days ago. Because she has been fighting, it has been delayed until today."

"Because she was kept at home for a long time, my sister was infected and has..."

"Smallpox?" The rebel soldier obviously didn't believe it and scratched his head, "What a coincidence?"

Chu Tian nodded quickly.

Seeing the rebel soldiers milling around in front of the coffin, Chu Tian stretched out his hand to lift the lid of the coffin.

A choking smell of corruption came to my face.

"Master Jun, if you don't believe me, you can take a look. I hope Master Jun won't be infected by mother's disease!"

The rebel soldiers quickly covered their mouths and noses and took a hasty look inside.

An old lady wearing a shroud, her face covered with abscesses.

A woman with a pale face and as many abscesses on her face as an old lady.

No grave goods were seen, and there was no jewelry on the deceased.

The rebel soldiers looked unhappy.

"Hurry up and cover it!" The rebel soldier waved his hands angrily.

It would be extremely unlucky to be infected with smallpox after not finding anything of value.

At this time, the rapid sound of horse hooves came from behind.

Chu Tian had a premonition that something was going to happen, so he quickly stuffed a silver ingot into the hands of the two rebel soldiers.

"My lord, please do me a favor!"

Two rebel soldiers got the silver ingot and said impatiently, "Get away! Bad luck!..."

Before he finished speaking, the man on horseback shouted loudly, "Close the city gate!..."

Taking this opportunity, Chu Tian tightened his grip on the trolley's lever and said, "Thank you!"

Pretending not to hear the shouts behind him, he quickly walked out of the door.

The shouts behind him became clearer, "The Marshal has an order!!!"

"Close the city gate!!!"

“Don’t let the rebellious officials and traitors run away!!!”

At this time, Chu Tian had already arrived outside the city gate.

Chu Tian immediately stopped and greeted several of the imperial wives.

"You guys, hurry up and lie down on the coffin, and I'll take you for a ride!"

Lu Huining and others looked at each other.

Along the way, every decision made by the Seventh Prince shocked them.

Even if they are women, they weigh four to five hundred pounds in total. His Highness the Seventh Highness wants to take them for a ride?

"Hurry! There's no time!" The cold and decisive voice forced Lu Huining and the others to listen to Chu Tian's arrangements.

Seeing the hesitation of several people, Chu Tian reached out and picked up Cheng Yuru, the second emperor's sister-in-law, and Shen Luoyan, the fourth emperor's sister-in-law, and placed them on the coffin lid.

Lu Huining and Wuhuang's sister-in-law Cui Rumeng quickly lay down on the coffin lid and accepted Chu Tian's arrangement.

The sound of the city gate creaking came. Chu Tian grabbed the lever of the cart and ran forward quickly through the flow of people fleeing.

Lu Huining and others were lying on the coffin lid, feeling the wind blowing in their ears. Because they were facing down, they could only see dust flying, and it felt as if their internal organs were about to pop out of their mouths.

Huo Du ordered the city gates to be closed. That was because he found someone had escaped. He couldn't slack off at all, let alone stay.

If he were alone, with his current skills, escaping to the wilderness would not be a problem at all.

The key is that the six royal wives need protection.

Since they were escaping together, there was no way he could leave the imperial wives behind and leave alone.

While Chu Tian was pulling the cart flying forward, he was wondering when Huo Du's men would catch up. Even the two wheels of the cart flew away without Chu Tian noticing.

Suddenly, I saw a small road beside the official road. Many refugees got off the official road and walked on the small road.

Chu Tian made a quick decision, turned around and pulled the two levers of the trolley to the trail.

Along the way, we passed many refugees.

After a cup of tea, Chu Tian saw that there was no one behind him, so he pulled the two pull rods of the cart into the farmland next to him.

After walking through two fields, Chu Tian stopped.

As soon as they stopped, the imperial wives lying on the coffin lid squatted on the ground and kept vomiting.

Chu Tian ignored them and reached out to lift the coffin lid.

Lin Fengwan and Xiang Qingcheng were huddled together in the coffin, holding their heads.

Seeing that the coffin was no longer bumping, Lin Fengwan opened his eyes.

"Your Majesty the Seventh Prince!..."

Her insides were about to collapse.

Xiang Qingcheng was not much better, and the two of them slowly sat up.

At a glance, I saw Lu Huining and the others. Their heads and faces were all covered in dust. Except for their eyeballs, which could be seen to be black and white, the rest of them were all covered in dust.

Chu Tian did not pay attention to these aspects of the emperor's sisters-in-law, and said directly, "Everyone, take off your mourning clothes, quickly!"

Chu Tian suddenly remembered that the money he gave to the two soldiers was taken from the treasury and had the mark of the treasury on it.

If he was discovered by two soldiers, his traces would be exposed.

Lin Feng had already listened to Chu Tianyan for a few years. Even if Lu Huining didn't agree with Chu Tian very much in her heart, because she had no better way or strength to lead everyone out of the predicament, she had no choice but to listen to Chu Tian.

Chu Tian had already pulled down the remaining bamboo pole of the soul-calling flag and threw it into the coffin. The lid of the coffin was also thrown on top of the coffin.

Among the supplies in the space, there was oil collected from the kitchen, and he took a bucket and poured it on the coffin.

A bundle of fire folding bags in the kitchen also came in handy at this time.

Chu Tian took out a fire stick and lit the coffin.

Immediately, he took off his mourning clothes and threw them on the coffin, which was instantly set on fire.

By the way, he earned two system points. At this time, he already had sixteen points.

No matter how many times Lin Feng looked at him in surprise as he took out these things, he didn't dare to be careless about what he had to do.

"Quick! Everyone, move faster!"

Chu Tian then urged, packed up the mourning clothes that several of the emperor's wives had taken off, and threw them all on the lit coffin.

Then, Chu Tian said, "Huo Dou ordered the city gate to be closed, which means that he already knows that we have escaped and is now searching for us in Kyoto. In order to get rid of Huo Dou as soon as possible, we have no chance to breathe and must hit the road now."

Without deliberately paying attention to whether the imperial wives had rested, they turned around and lifted their legs to leave.

Lin Feng was a few years later, even if his internal organs were displaced by the bumps, at this time, he could only follow Chu Tian on the road.

Chu Tian took several of the emperor's wives back the same way.

After walking not far, Lu Huining caught up and said to Chu Tian, ​​"Your Highness, Seventh Prince, it seems that we are going back, and we will return to the official road soon?"

Chu Tian nodded, "We are going back to the official road."

Lu Huining was puzzled and asked with wide eyes, "Why? Shouldn't we take a secret path to be safer?"

Lu Huining felt that this was her time to shine, and she must win everyone to listen to her.

She is not competitive, Chu Tian is actually a little unreliable.
