Chu Tian slowed down and said, "We left Kyoto in a coffin. If Huo Dou discovers our whereabouts, we will be able to trace our whereabouts sooner or later."
"We abandoned the coffin in the farmland next to the trail. In the eyes of most people, we will definitely escape along the trail and never return to the official road."
When Chu Tian said this, everyone thought it made sense, and some nodded.
Lu Huining asked, "What if Huodu guessed that we were going the other way and sent people to search for us on the official road?"
Chu Tian raised his eyes and looked at Guandao not far away, "So we must run as far away as possible before Huodu's rebels leave Kyoto to search!"
"Whether it's an official road or a small road, if Huo Du's hundreds of thousands of troops really pursue and block us, where else do you think we can find a safe place?"
"Let's speed up! Try to get out ten miles away from Kyoto before the rebels discover us!"
Why should it be ten miles away?
Chu Tian had his own plan, but he didn't say it out loud.
In half a day, several women from prominent families could not run ten miles away.
Huo Dudu understands this truth, and he will not let people search ten miles away.
When he was ten miles away, he could find a place for the imperial wives to stay and rest for a while.
And he was going to collect the food and grass that Huo Du had left at the base camp.
Lin Fengwan and others felt that Chu Tian's words made sense. Lin Fengwan said, "Everyone listen to His Highness the Seventh Prince's arrangement. Let's leave quickly!"
Lin Fengwan reached out to support Xiang Qingcheng and took the lead.
Chu Tian had forgotten that Xiang Qingcheng's feet were not easy to move.
Chu Tian caught up and took a step forward, stood in front of Xiang Qingcheng and bent down, "Sister-in-law Six Emperors, I'm carrying you on my back, so we can go faster."
Xiang Qingcheng deliberately refused. Seeing that she had indeed affected everyone's speed, she had no choice but to lie on Chu Tian's back, "How can I feel at ease if I have implicated His Highness Seventh?"
"Sister-in-law Liu Huang, there is no need to say anything. The goal is for us all to escape together!"
It's the opening to escape. If someone helps you, your chances of escaping will be reduced. What else can Xiang Qingcheng say?
Everyone quickly arrived at the official road.
As soon as we boarded the official road, we saw dust rising in the direction of Kyoto, and the sound of horse hooves gradually became clearer.
It's the rebels!
"Your Highness Seventh! Put me down quickly!" Xiang Qingcheng struggled, "You can escape alone!"
Even Lin Fengwan became nervous and said repeatedly, "No, the rebels must be chasing us. Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince, don't worry about us. Just leave!"
With the current skills of His Highness the Seventh Prince, without the burden of the princes and concubines, escaping from the rebels' pursuit would not be a problem at all.
Lin Fengwan didn't expect that from the beginning, she accepted the emperor's order and led several princes and concubines to protect His Highness the Seventh Prince and escaped into the wilderness. In a short period of time, she became His Highness the Seventh Prince and protected them and several other princes and concubines.
No matter what, she couldn't drag His Highness down.
"Everyone shut up!"
For the first time, Chu Tian showed his aloofness in front of several princes and concubines and scolded them harshly.
At this time, he will not escape alone.
If he had such thoughts, he would have escaped alone before entering the secret passage.
He didn't want to talk coldly to the princes and concubines. If he wasn't so decisive and the princes and concubines started arguing with him, the rebels might be right in front of him.
Xiang Qingcheng grew up in fine clothes and fine food, so she was used to calling slaves and maids, and she was never scolded by anyone.
Even though she knew Chu Tian was doing it for her own good, she still couldn't accept it psychologically. Her eyes immediately turned red and she stopped struggling.
Lin Fengwan suddenly understood that their entanglement would only delay His Highness the Seventh Prince's next decision.
Only such a calm His Majesty the Seventh Prince can deal with the rebel pursuers.
She immediately accepted Chu Tian's sharp decision and ordered everyone, "Everyone, be quiet and listen to His Highness the Seventh Prince's arrangements."
Once again, he chose to obey Chu Tian unconditionally.
Seeing that the rebel troops were about to arrive, Chu Tian reacted quickly without caring about the emotions of the imperial wives.
"The First Imperial Sister-in-law! We are still called as before. We pretend to be husband and wife, the Sixth Emperor's Sister-in-law pretends to be the concubine, and the other Imperial Sister-in-law pretends to be the servants!"
Everyone took off their mourning clothes, and the clothes underneath were exactly what they were wearing in the secret passage just now.
There is no need for Chu Tian to elaborate on the specific title, everyone knows it.
Chu Tian took a special look at Lu Huining and saw that Lu Huining, like the other imperial wives, seemed to have rolled out of the dust. The entire head and neck were covered with dust.
At first glance, he looked even sloppier than the other refugees nearby.
Among these people, Lin Fengwan and Xiang Qingcheng were hiding in the coffin, so there was not much dust on their heads and faces.
Chu Tian was very satisfied with everyone's current appearance, and stretched out his hand to pull Lin Fengwan, "Let's go! Pretend to be weak!"
No one could come up with a better plan than Chu Tian's, and Lin Fengwan had always been in favor of Chu Tian's actions.
She did not choose to believe Chutian, obey Chutian, and obey Chutian without any position.
But from all her knowledge and knowledge, she felt that every decision made by Chu Tian was right.
In fact, from the moment everyone entered the secret passage, Chutian was in charge of everything.
Even if his identity is discovered by the rebels on the street, it is not Chutian's fault, nor is there anything wrong with Chutian's strategy.
It was Lu Huining who caused trouble for everyone.
Lin Fengwan knew this from beginning to end.
She knew better that on the way to escape, it was not the time to blame each other. Everyone had to unite and face Huodu's rebels together, so that they could escape from the rebels.
Even Lu Huining was still dissatisfied with Chu Tian. She did not get rid of the pursuit of the soldiers, so she had to act together with everyone.
As for what Chu Tian said, he pretended to be weak.
Everyone has not had a good meal since the Huodu rebels surrounded Kyoto. They ran all the way without even drinking a sip of water. Their lips were chapped and bleeding. Just opening your mouth hurts. No need to pretend. No one has any extra energy.
As soon as Chu Tian arranged everyone, the rebel troops arrived in front of him.
There were more than twenty soldiers on horseback, led by an official. When they arrived in front of Chu Tian and the others, they ran over without even taking a second look.
Looking at the horse team going away, everyone just breathed a sigh of relief when shouts and curses came from behind.
Chu Tian looked back and saw a group of rebels checking the refugees along the way.
"Old man! Have you seen the Seventh Prince Chu Tian?" A soldier asked an old man on crutches.
The soldier held the portrait in his hand. He glanced at the portrait, then at the old man, and compared them carefully.
The man in the portrait was obviously very different from the old man. The soldier kicked the old man and asked him a question.
