In the end, at Lu Sifan's repeated request, Luo Yun changed into a fancy dress, dressed up nicely, and finally went out.

Lu Sifan still got on her carriage with her maid, but Luo Yun got on a horse, looked around absently, and walked beside the carriage, walking around the carriage and horses. , dozens of guards completely separated them from outsiders, and it seemed like not even a fly could fly in.

Such battles are rare even in Licheng where noble people are like rain.

Therefore, not to mention assassins, even ordinary people walking on the road should stay away from them to avoid getting into serious trouble.

The motorcade went all the way north and gradually walked out of the core area of ​​​​the city. There were gradually more people and hawkers on the streets. From time to time, the local-style hawking sounds of peddlers hawking along the street could be heard, which made Lu Sifan couldn't help but open the car window. , covered his face with a silk scarf and watched with curiosity.

Luo Yun was not surprised at all. He had grown up here since he was a child. He would naturally sneak out to play when he was young. What haven't he seen before? Seeing Lu Sifan like this now, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "You said it, you managed to get out of Taiming City and ran to Licheng, but within a few days, you became a noble man waiting to be married. There are a lot more restrictions, and although it is more free than me, looking at it like this, I’m afraid I haven’t gone out to play a few times.”

Lu Sifan smiled and looked around with his big eyes still bright and clear. "Although there are indeed a lot more restrictions, it is still much better than when we were in Taiming City," she said After sighing softly, he said in a low voice, "The capital of our Li County is already so lively. I really don't know what Jincheng in Guang County and Huaicheng in Hanoi County look like. The legendary Jiangdong County Su How prosperous is the city?"

Luo Yun looked into the distance indifferently. The closer he got to the North City Gate, the more homeless and beggars there were on the street. "Just ask him when he comes back. Apart from Su City, what did you say?" He has been to several other places, but although he has never been to Sioux City, he has stayed in Zhongjing City, known as the first capital in the world, for more than ten years. He is very familiar with it. No matter how prosperous Su City is when he comes here, It can’t be compared to Zhongjing City.” Kan Shula

Lu Sifan shook his head slightly when he heard this, "The prosperity of Zhongjing City has nothing to do with him..."

"Oh?" Luo Yun smiled, and then smiled again, "Yes, otherwise it wouldn't be..." He did not finish the sentence.

Lu Sifan did not continue on this topic.

All the way north, there were more and more refugees on both sides of the road, and Lu Sifan's eyes no longer had that novel light. She looked at the ragged refugees, including half-grown children who were skinny and huddled together to keep each other warm. , some even don’t have a single complete piece of clothing on their bodies, or they are babies who are held in their mother’s arms and don’t have much flesh on their faces. Even though she has done some psychological preparation before setting off, it is a bit difficult. Accept, "Taiming City is not as prosperous as Li City, but the number of refugees in Taiming City is not as large as Li City..."

Luo Yun looked around as usual, with no emotion in his eyes, as if all the prosperity and suffering in the world had nothing to do with him, "Taiming City is a border town. If you run there, you might be arrested and taken to prison." People who have crossed the city wall are refugees, and they are running for their lives. Who is not going to a prosperous place?" He looked towards the north city gate and could see a long line of refugees in the distance. His eyes were full of ridicule. "It's a pity that they don't know that this Li city cannot support so many idle people after all..."

Lu Sifan raised his head to look at Luo Yun and said in surprise, "Brother Luo Yun is saying that there are too many refugees this year?"

Luo Yun did not comment, but just raised his head so that Lu Sifan could not see his eyes easily, "Li County has many mountains and many people. It is not easy to feed so many people relying on the basin among the three mountains. How can you afford to feed the refugees?" He chuckled and said in a voice that only he could hear, "Especially with so many refugees..."

Lu Sifan looked around and remained silent. When the carriage drove into the area where the refugees were queuing, he saw the refugees queuing away to the side of the road in fear, and his expression became calmer and calmer.

Soon, the group arrived near the North City Gate. Not far from the east side of the city gate, it was originally a trading place in the slum area.

, is currently being temporarily used by the government to provide porridge.

The porridge shed is quite large, with large vats lined up side by side under it, filled with porridge and rice. Surrounded by hundreds of city guards, several government officials filled spoonfuls of porridge. Opposite them, the refugees They lined up with their chests and backs close together. Some of them were holding a broken bowl, some were holding a dark alms bowl, and some even had their hands together. After receiving the porridge and rice, they lowered their heads and walked into the distance. He trotted away and started eating in a hurry.

Lu Sifan and Luo Yun came here under the protection of a group of people.

Lu Sifan said a few words to several officials who were guarding here who had obviously received instructions in advance, then entered the porridge shed, took the porridge spoon from an official, and started serving porridge with a gentle smile. Not getting the same treatment as the insensitive crowd opposite.

The refugees lowered their heads one by one, taking it and leaving without even looking at the gorgeously dressed beauty in front of them.

Luo Yunze folded his hands on his chest, stood behind Lu Sifan and watched coldly. After watching for a while, he probably had no more interest in this kind of thing that could be repeated forever, so he turned and walked outside the porridge shed. The guards immediately followed him and protected him.

Luo Yun didn't take it seriously. He went straight to a slightly raised stone platform and stood there, looking at the soldiers on the city wall and the refugees under the city wall, and sneered silently.

Just when he was about to turn around and jump off the stone platform, his body suddenly stiffened, and then he stood up again, with an uncontrollable wave in his eyes looking at the sky.

Because a long-lost voice suddenly reached his ears! !

"Young master, how have you been lately... don't move, watch the sky..."

Luo Yun put his slightly trembling hands in his sleeves and nodded imperceptibly.

The voice sounded again, "Come and leave the city. I will take you away, but... there are experts in the city, and we still need to wait for an opportunity. Don't be anxious..."

The brilliance that bloomed in Luo Yun's eyes for a moment slowly receded. He nodded and looked in all directions. His eyes passed over the soldiers, merchants, common people, refugees, everyone, but he still couldn't find anyone who felt familiar to him. That face.

"Master, do you know when Luochuan... will return to Licheng?" The voice still reached Luo Yun's ears, but he didn't know the direction from which it came.

Luo Yun shook his head gently. After a slight pause, he turned his head and looked around, and shook his head more forcefully and resolutely.

The voice in the dark disappeared.

Luo Yun frowned slightly and jumped down from the stone platform. The voice that had just disappeared came intermittently again, and the speed of his speech was obviously faster. "The man cast his eyes over. I will leave first. I will find an opportunity to see you again. Then you can There should be no outsiders around you, or only people who you want to die or can die..."

Luo Yun stopped walking, and then a guard came up to ask. He shook his head and returned to the porridge shed in silence, only to hear the voice coming vaguely for the last time, "This woman... is Lu Dongfeng's daughter." ...?!"

Luo Yun looked at Lu Sifan's back as he was helping the porridge, without nodding or shaking his head. After a while, he finally sighed softly.

He nodded his head very slightly.
