Chapter 204: Good Eyesight

The carriage stopped at the intersection of North-South Lane at the west end of Lide Lane.

After getting on the carriage, Jiang Yu immediately changed his father's makeup, this time changing him into Young Master Wang's follower.

She replaced herself with Young Master Wang.

He took out a bundle from under the carriage seat, "Dad, don't be too particular, let's change clothes back to back, quickly!"

A few minutes later, the 'entourage' drove the carriage towards the south gate.

Lide Lane, west wing.

When the time came, the two 'followers' had not returned yet, so "Master Lan" had a gloomy face and left angrily without even giving them a reward.

The servant in Jiyuan waved his hand at the 'dumb man', "Get lost!"

The 'dumb man' was a little slow to react. When he turned around, he threw something out of his hand, and the servant in his own courtyard and the servant guarding the west gate fell down immediately.

The 'dumb man' hurriedly helped the two men up and sat them down by the gate, and took away the silver bills in their arms.

Then he exerted force with his feet and flew onto the top of the west courtyard wall.

"Master Lan" was already waiting in the North-South Alley in the west.

The 'dumb man' stepped lightly and landed beside "Master Lan", then he lifted up "Master Lan" and flew to the wall on the other side of the north-south alley.

Then he pointed his toes at the roof and ran quickly towards the west gate.

A quarter of an hour later, the guest who had made the reservation did not see the servant from his own courtyard, so he called out for the servant from the east courtyard...

……

There were many carriages leaving the city.

It took time for the city guards to check the carriages and pedestrians one by one, so the city gate seemed crowded and slow.

Young Master Wang poked his head out and asked impatiently, "Why are you so slow?"

"Please wait a moment. Please wait a moment."

When the city guards saw that it was this gentleman, they hurriedly drove away the other carriages and let "Young Master Wang's" carriage pass first.

"Good eyesight."

Young Master Wang threw out a silver ingot, and the city guards who received the silver were overjoyed. They didn't expect that Young Master Wang, who was always stingy, would be so generous today.

Being driven like this by the city guards, the other carriages were thrown into a mess, and it was even slower for them to get out of the city gate.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

Several people whipped their horses at full speed and came towards the city gate. When they met pedestrians who did not give way, they whipped them, making the road full of wailing.

When they arrived at the city gate, they saw a mess of carriages blocking the exit, and one of them cursed the city guards as useless trash.

Then a few people abandoned their horses, squeezed out of the city through the pedestrian corridor, robbed the horses of several carriages outside the city gate, and continued to ride at full speed.

"Pooh!"

The city guards dared to speak up, "They are just a few dogs raised by the Du family, but they really think they are human beings!"

Such situations occurred at nine city gates in the capital, but there was no congestion at other gates.

……

After leaving the city, Jiang Nian got into the carriage and let it move freely.

Jiang Yu in the carriage has become 'Jiang Jin' and has changed his clothes.

After Dad came in, Jiang Yu transformed Dad into a grandfather, then got out of the carriage and drove to the side of the road.

After Dad changed his clothes and came out, Jiang Yu helped Dad jump off the carriage, raised the whip and hit the two horses' butts hard, and the two horses spread their hooves and galloped away.

On the side of the official road, a pair of grandparents and grandchildren, carrying bags on their backs, supported each other and walked slowly.

"drive!"

"drive!"

Several horses galloped past the grandparents.

Jiang Nian squeezed the arm that was supporting him.

"Not afraid!"

Jiang Yu comforted his father, "You are an elderly man now, just pretend to be deaf and dumb, and I will take care of the rest."

The horses chased for a while and finally caught up with the galloping carriage. After they worked together to stop the carriage, they found that there was no one in the carriage and realized that they had been tricked.

"Look back!"

One person gave the order.

After a few people turned around, they let the horses walk slowly, and their eyes were fixed on the pedestrians on both sides.

"Come here!" A timid man was unfortunately chosen and asked his name and age.

The cowering man was so frightened that he stammered, unable to give a reply. He was whipped out of the official road and rolled a long way before stopping. He didn't know whether he was dead or alive.

"You! Come out!"

"You! Come out!"

Many of the people picked out by the group were middle-aged men who were thin and looked timid and cowardly.

The grandparents and grandchildren played by Jiang Yu and Jiang Nian were glanced over by several people.

Jiang Yu: "..."

Didn't you take 'Master Lan' into consideration?

"You, both of you stop!"

Just as Jiang Yu was about to change his mind, he was stopped by the last person.

There was a commotion among the pedestrians on the roadside. Are they going to check even teenagers, children and the elderly?
"Official, official, official."

Hearing that the young man was so scared that his tongue was almost tied, the man's expression softened a little.

"Where are you going?"

"Go, go, to Lingnan, to look for relatives."

"Lingnan? Just walk there like this?"

"Yes, yes! Home, home, there is no, no money left. Grandpa is sick. I want to see my relatives before I die."

Jiang Yu: "..."

Amitabha, may grandpa live a hundred years in good health!

"Take out the pass and household registration and let me see it."

"Wait, wait, wait a minute."

The young man helped the old man to sit on the side of the road, then he opened his bundle and took out a few pieces of paper. "Sir, sir, do you want to see this?"

The man took the paper and looked at it, then compared it with the faces of the young man and the old man, then returned the paper to the young man and said, "Okay, let's go!"

"Thank you very much, sir."

The young man carefully collected several pieces of paper and helped the old man up. "Grandpa, let's go."

The old man was trembling, as if he was sick or frightened.

When the figures of the grandparents and grandchildren were getting farther and farther away, the man rode his horse to catch up with the companions in front and said, "Let's go back and see if the others have gained anything."

The sound of horse hooves became increasingly distant and almost inaudible, and only then did Jiang Nian let out a long sigh of relief.

Did he really escape?

Is he really Jiang Nian?
Jiang Yu also breathed a sigh of relief. What she was nervous about was not her imitation makeup, but her household registration and travel permit.

Those pieces of paper are fake!

Qin Yue had someone make fake household registrations and travel permits for various cities for her. Unless one was from the Ministry of Household Registration, which was responsible for managing household registration, it would be impossible to tell the real thing from the fake.

People in the Ministry of Revenue may not be able to recognize it unless they are familiar with the handwriting of each colleague and the address on the household registration pass.

……

There were fewer and fewer people walking south, and by the time the sun set, there were only three or four people walking with the grandparents.

The footsteps of the 'grandparents' became heavier and heavier, as if they would not be able to lift them up in the next moment.

Someone couldn't bear it and encouraged the grandparents, "Go south for about five miles and you will see a well. There is an inn next to the well where you can eat and stay.

You can eat something and rest there, and leave tomorrow."

"Thank you, thank you very much."

The boy opened his dry lips to thank him.

The three or four people quickened their pace and no longer accompanied the "grandparents and grandchildren".

It was dark and there were no other pedestrians on the road. Jiang Yu took out a flashlight from his bag, turned it on and placed it on the side of the road.

He then took out a cup and unscrewed it. Steam was still coming out of the cup. "Dad, drink some water first!"

In order not to be exposed, she and her father just kept walking without drinking a sip of water.

"Be careful, don't burn yourself."

If Jiang Yu had not come to the north, he would not have brought a thermos cup. Sister Xiu had repeatedly warned him not to drink cold water at any time.

The temperature in the north is much lower than in the south in winter, so she dare not leave her thermos bottle behind.
