"Is this the garden official's residence?"

"Yes, my lord."

Qi Boche nodded and said: "Just wait. Even if the prince wants to let people out of the city when the city is blocked, he still has to wait until after sunset to hide it from others."

Polybomar was convinced.

The two of them sat at a cocoa stall and ordered two drinks first. Then he remembered another thing: "Sir, there is an invitation banquet with the temple attendant after nightfall."

Qi Boche slapped his forehead, this matter cannot be ignored.

Although the waiter's status is not prominent, he has a direct influence on their subsequent planned actions. If he is coaxed, they will gain great convenience.

"You first arrange for someone to rent a sedan. We don't have to show up when picking them up. If Oyer fails to return, I will stay and wait while you go and entertain the waiter."

"good."

The two of them sat and waited, listening to the chatter of the guests around them, most of whom were talking about the prince's mission.

The more he listened, the angrier Qiboche became.

We can no longer blame the world for being ignorant. They were all blocked by Zuzomok’s news and blinded their eyes with falsehoods.

The people in the city wanted to seek peace, but had no intention of going on a pilgrimage to seek balance.

When dusk comes.

The shadows under the walls of the streets and alleys spread like a tide, swallowing up the light and making everything in front of them blurry.

"At night, I can't see clearly with my eyes." Qiboche stared at the mansion in the distance, his eyes aching.

Poliboma said: "Night blindness can be cured. There are pharmacists in big cities who are good at this disease!"

"Your Excellency, you should know that the selection of palace guards cannot be done if your eyesight is not up to standard, so every year young people go there."

Qi Boqie smiled and said: "At my age, I still have to recruit palace guards..."

But before he could finish speaking, he saw the door of the mansion open, and twenty or thirty servants wearing burlap and carrying potted flowers and plants appeared.

"Here we come!" Qi Boche changed the subject and reminded in a deep voice.

Poliboma turned around and noticed the clue at a glance: "In such a huge royal garden, there is no room to plant potted flowers?"

"And they deliberately obscured the people clustered in the middle."

"I have seen Her Royal Highness the Princess..."

"Have you seen Keya and his son?"

"Being held hostage by several servants, they should have daggers hidden under their robes to prevent the father and son from rioting."

Qi Boche stood up and said: "That's it, follow them from a distance, no need to get close! As long as you confirm that they finally leave the city gate and turn back, there are three less people, and the plan will be complete."

“The next step is to watch Oyer!”

Everything unfolded as expected.

Qipoche, Poliboma, and Mondaya in the team were all extremely excited.

The former did not hide it, but Mendaya had to endure it because her father was watching her from the end of the line.

At the front of the team, Lava, Keya and his son were naturally overjoyed.

They never thought that one day they would be able to escape.

Of course, Keya understands that all this is thanks to Mundaya, and this separation may make it difficult for the two to see each other again in their lives.

But now he feels ashamed of his father and brothers, maybe...

After he sends his father off first and his brothers leave, he will find a way to come back.

"Father, Cookmo, we have to get out of here!"

"Go home, go back to the hill town!"

Keya sighed in a low voice, and Lava was too excited to speak.

Can be on the side.

The closer he got to the wall of the outer city, the more he trembled all over.

Only he knew that this trembling was not because of joy, but because of fear.

He was imprisoned in the Yuanlin official residence and lived an inhumane life, but at least he was still surviving.

Because the princess protected them, the garden officials could do nothing to them.

But what if we go out of town?

They will lose the princess's protection.

Then what we are embarking on now is not a road home, but a road of death.

Kukmo could not warn his father and brother because they had daggers pressed against their backs.

And he was immersed in panic and lost his mind.

When we arrived at the city, the last ray of sunset was completely blocked by the high wall.

The guard escorting them revealed his identity, and the closed gate of the city opened a gap.

The more Kumo felt the joy of his father and brother, the more extremely sad he became.

But when they finally stepped out of the city gate, saw the vast world outside, and had their faces illuminated by the setting sun, he still took a deep breath of the free air and cried with joy.

Keya could no longer suppress his emotions: "Father, brother, we can go home!"

"Yes, yes, I can finally go home!" Lava was the first to react. He turned around and knelt down, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness, thank you for your kindness!"

Mendaya was about to step forward, but was stopped by the guards.

She looked back at the man in the cloak, who waved his hand: "Let her pass!"

Things have come to this point, and the father and son are about to die. Let Mendaya say goodbye to them, which can be regarded as his last kindness to these three lowly slaves.

The guard gave way, and Mondaya stepped forward, helped Lava up, and then silently walked to Keya: "Brother Keya, I can no longer accompany you to the hill city or the distant sea!"

"The hardships you have experienced are all because of me, so... forget me!"

Keya suddenly swallowed harder. What he wanted to say was hindered by the cold eyes of the people around him, so he couldn't speak. He only responded with trembling eyes.

Mendaya knew the next arrangement in her heart.

There were people outside the city to meet them.

But at this moment, she still shed tears involuntarily: "I understand, I understand everything!"

"Go quickly and don't look back! I'll be here to watch you leave!"

"Munda..."

"Her Royal Highness told you to get out, didn't you hear?" The guard had already lost his patience.

How could a slave as humble as a dog fall in love with a noble princess? Letting them live would have crossed the bottom line of the royal family.

Seeing that Keya was still hesitating, Lava finally reached out and pulled his son: "Let's go!"

Keya was dragged away by his father like a zombie.

On the side, followed by the silent Cook Mo.

The silhouettes of the three people lengthened and continued to go away.

At this time, the seventeenth prince who was hiding behind him said: "Mengdaya, it's time to go back! I have done what I promised."

"Leave now and ask you to send out pursuers to kill them? I want to wait until nightfall!"

"You..." Prince Seventeen felt guilty.

But beside him, a whisper came: "The three of them haven't had enough to eat for a long time, and they don't have any belongings on them. They can't go far!"

"This is what you said, if you can't kill them, I will kill you!"

"yes!"

The seventeenth prince said nothing and waited quietly.

Mendaya stared blankly into the distance, unwilling to move even though the three figures had disappeared from sight.

Because the fire bearer said that enough time must be given to give the three of them life.

outside the city.

The pace of the three father and son gradually increased.

Although his body was weak, he burst out with infinite strength due to his new life, and he wished he could return to the mountain city one day.

"Father, I heard the guard guarding us say that the city of Tapong is broken!"

"Equilibrium has arrived!"

"I was expecting the army of judgment to save us when it arrived, but Mendaya used some method to get his father to let us go."

Lava nodded and praised: "That princess is a good person! Because of this, you should not think about her anymore, which will bring trouble to His Highness!"

"Keya, listen to me, stop thinking about it, don't do stupid things again, and waste the suffering that your brother and I have suffered!"

Keya didn't answer. He seemed to be nodding or shaking his head.

On the side, Cook Mo remained silent.

He glanced behind him from time to time, fearing that the next moment, there would be shouts of death and the three of them would die.

The last ray of the sunset disappeared into the mountains in the distance, seeming to herald the final outcome of the three of them.

"What should we do? What should we do? If we continue walking, we will definitely die, we will!"

Kukmo was anxious and confused.

But at this moment, an idea flashed——

"No, one cannot chase the sunset!"
To be continued...
