Chapter 543 Identity Conversion

As the army set off, Feng Yuheng's carriage could soon arrive at the first town.

The two secret guards who were accompanying her were one named Yuan Fei and the other was Qiu Shu. The person who was driving the car outside was Qiu Shu, and Yuan Fei was invited into the carriage and sat side by side with Wangchuan in the main seat of the carriage. Beside them, Feng Yuheng and Huang Quan sat on the other side.

"Okay, just like that, I'll go to the town in front and ask Huangquan to buy a few sets of clothes and let's change it." Feng Yuheng clapped his hands, very satisfied with his arrangement.

But Wangchuan and Yuanfei were uncomfortable, especially Yuanfei, who didn't know how to sit. His waist was straight, just like a military posture. He didn't know where to put his hands. After thinking about it several times, he finally chose to put it flat on his knees and then looked ahead, and didn't dare to look at Feng Yuheng.

Wangchuan and Feng Yuheng are familiar with each other, so they can't talk about it. However, they disagree with Feng Yuheng's decision, "You two are pretending to be husband and wife as their masters, Huang Quan and Qiu Shu and I are also good at playing maids and servants." She discussed with Feng Yuheng and said, "Miss, can't you think of any other way. Do you have to pretend to be husband and wife?"

Huang Quan was also a little puzzled, "You are still a lady, can't we still be a maid and servant?"

Yuan Fei looked at Feng Yuheng with anticipation, and waited for her to nod and said yes. He was a secret guard and could kill and fight. He could pretend to be a young master, and he also brought a fake young lady with him, and then the dignified Princess of the Imperial Palace is his maid. He really can't do such a thing!

Unfortunately, Feng Yuheng could not be moved at all. The more she thought about her, she shook her head and said, "No, I am a lady, you are maids and followers. Such a combination is too shameless. Everyone knows that Princess Ji'an is thirteen years old. Even after this New Year, I will only be fourteen years old. The princess is following two girls all year round. This combination is too recognizable and easy to be targeted. We are heading north all the way north, and it will take more than three or five days. I plan to go to Guanzhou in two months. Therefore, safety is the first priority, and we have no choice."

When she said this, Wangchuan immediately realized it, then nodded, and said repeatedly: "That's right, it's because the servants are neglected. The lady is meticulous and has a good arrangement."

What's so good? Yuan Fei looked at Wangchuan. This girl used to be his master's subordinate. He used to think that Wangchuan was very beautiful, but later he was sent to the princess's side and was rarely seen. It was a few days ago when he was chasing the Qianzhou Shootings. He had several contacts, but he didn't expect that today, the two of them pretended to be a couple in action. Yuan Fei thought that even if it was a bit embarrassing, it was worth it.

So he nodded and said in a muffled voice: "Then let's settle it!"

Feng Yuheng covered his mouth and chuckled, teasing Wangchuan, saying, "Look, your husband is still quite fast when he enters the role!"

Wangchuan stomped his feet and was flushed with words.

The people in the carriage laughed for a while, and Feng Yuheng took out a map that Xuan Tianming had given her before, spread it flat on the small table in the carriage, and pointed to it and said: "From the capital to the northern province, you have to pass through seven provincial governments, including the Hetian Prefecture, including Xiaozhou and Qingzhou. Then from Qingfu to Guanzhou, the first state in the northern border, there are six prefectures. Each of these six provincial governments has two prefectures, regardless of the counties. A rough calculation shows that our trip should be between sixty and seventy days."

Yuan Fei nodded and continued: "The Northern Border subordinates have been there once. The Northern Border is known as the three provinces, but in fact they are still named after states, namely Guanzhou, Songzhou, and Jiangzhou. However, because these three states cover a very wide area and are larger than other provincial governments, people are used to calling the three states the three provinces. When we come from the capital, the first state after entering the Northern Border is Guanzhou. The governor Duanmu Anguo built the government office in Songzhou in the central area, and Jiangzhou is close to Qianzhou. The northern gate of Dashun is in Jiangzhou."

While saying that, Yuan Fei carefully drew the location of the three provinces on the map and pointed out where the Beida Gate was located, which also gave Feng Yuheng some geographical knowledge.

Speaking of which, the so-called prefectures of the Dashun Dynasty were the so-called provinces, prefectures, and cities in the later generations, but the city was no longer divided into districts and surrounded by some small towns. The capital was naturally independent, while Xiaozhou and Qingzhou, north of the capital, belong to the jurisdiction of Hetian Prefecture. After leaving Hetian Prefecture and going north, it had to pass six prefectures to reach Guanzhou. It was long and difficult.

Since the few people agreed with Feng Yuheng's arrangement, Yuan Fei has been sitting in the car, and Huang Quan and Qiu Shu have changed their cars from time to time. When they passed the first town, several people bought clothes in the ready-made clothing shop. Feng Yuheng changed into maid dress, Wangchuan dressed up as a young woman, and Yuan Fei bought the best set of brocade robes in the shop. However, the best ones are not very good in their eyes. After all, the things in the town cannot be compared with those in the capital. Feng Yuheng thought that when he arrived in Xiaozhou, he would buy more better clothes. It would be better to have two months of trouble.

There was almost no rest on the way. The carriage was pulled together with two horses. When they arrived at a town, they would change horses. Huang Quan and Qiu Shu changed shifts to rest, and went straight to Xiaozhou.

Recently, this is the second time they have taken this path, but their moods are very different. The last time they were chasing the person who robbed Zi Rui, they were nervous all the way, especially Feng Yuheng, who never relaxed for a moment. Although these things have to be taken with great care, they are much easier than the last time.

However, the road was still the same. They had to pass by the place where the sixth and the other nine secret guards were buried. When they passed by, it was Huangquan who drove the car. She turned around and asked Feng Yuheng if she wanted to stop. Feng Yuheng immediately called to stop, but did not get off the car. She just opened the curtain of the window and looked at the grave.

She told the few people softly: "Although we haven't found anything along the way, we still can't relax. The enemy doesn't know where to stare at it, so even if we want to go on a sacrifice, it's definitely not the time." Then, her head slightly raised, her red lips opened again, but she said to the tomb: "Brothers, wait a little longer. When we take the thousand weeks, we will bring his royal family to you and sacrifice your heroic souls blood." After that, she lowered the curtain and said in a deep voice: "Let's go."

The Huangquan horse whip swung, and then set off again with a "bang".

People were in a heavy mood. After a long time, no one spoke again. They rushed all the way through Xiaozhou, supplemented enough supplies, and continued to move forward. Finally, on the morning of the fifth day, they arrived at the dock where they were taking the boat.

"Miss, we are going to go by water again. We will not know when we will come back here. The carriage has no value for storage, so just sell it." Huang Quan whispered to Feng Yuheng.

Feng Yuheng nodded and reminded Wangchuan, "We talked well in the car, but when we got off the car, our masters were Wangchuan and Yuanfei, and we would discuss with them no matter what." She then answered Yuanfei, "Trippy things are usually women in charge of the family, so Wangchuan was responsible for the arrangement, but when there were important decisions, you could only stand up."

Yuan Fei thought for a while and said, "Some things that subordinates cannot do."

"No one can't do it." She waved her hand, "As long as we have clear goals, everything else is trivial matters, you have said something." After she finished speaking, she walked to the front of the car first, picked up the curtains, stood outside the car, and then raised a crisp voice: "Young master, young lady, the dock is here, please get off the car!"

As the curtains were lifted, the cold wind came straight. The wind was hard by the river, and it was already winter, so they were rushing north again, and the weather was getting colder and colder. Fortunately, they changed into winter clothes in Xiaozhou, and Wangchuan put a brocade cotton cloak on his head, which looked a bit like a rich young lady.

Huang Quan and Qiu Shu were carrying all the bags, while Feng Yuheng was following Wangchuan intently. After getting off the car, they had their arms intertwined. It seemed that Feng Yuheng, a girl, was holding the young grandmother, but in fact, Wangchuan was holding Feng Yuheng.

There were many people who collected horses and carts by the river. Qiu Shu sold the cart and respectfully handed over the silver to Wangchuan. Huang Quan went to the dock to order two elegant huts with the ship owner. Everyone only had to wait for another half an hour, and the next ship was coming.

Huang Quan told them with the boarding sign: "Let's live in Yaxiang, this ship sign is easy to buy. If it were an ordinary cabin, it was said that there would be no seat at noon yesterday."

Wangchuan talked to Huangquan in a word, but Feng Yuheng quietly opened his eyes to the dock. The dock was the most mixed place, including those who were doing business, those who were rushing to the road, those who traded slaves, and those who were local snakes who collected protection fees. They looked around and saw everyone. She soon saw an acquaintance, the slave owner who whipped people last time she met on the boat. The man got another group of slaves from somewhere, but they were still children under ten years old, with their hands and feet tied with iron chains, one of them, like rows of centipedes.

She asked Huang Quan in a low voice: "What is Dashun's slavery like? I saw in the capital that even those servants who had handed over the contract of selling their bodies would not be treated like this. We have bought slaves. Although the children were dressed in a shabby and simple manner when they were sent, they were clean and clean. They didn't look like they had been abused. Why did they have such a situation when they left the capital?"

Huang Quan explained to her: "These slaves are different from the ones we bought. People in the capital are rules, and those who are under the control of those men are just selling contracts. But these little slaves are under the control of the slave owner. The contracts sold are the body, and the household registration is the life. Those who are under the control of the contract can still run away, as long as you can run away, and you have a household registration, at least you won't be checked when you pass the pass. But if you don't have a household registration, you can only pass the prefectures and counties. Once you want to enter the provincial government, unless you drill a dog hole, you will not even be able to enter the door."

Feng Yuheng was stunned. Isn’t this equivalent to the existence of a household registration book and an ID card? To put it bluntly, the contract of selling a body is a contract. If you breach the contract, you will be held legally responsible at most. But household registration is a symbol of identity. If you don’t have an ID card, you will be unable to move anywhere.

It was not until today that she understood such a rule, but then she said "ah" again, saying, "What about us? We have to go through so many provincial governments, have we taken our household registration out?"

Wangchuan told her: "Don't worry, I'll take it with you. Your Highness has already been prepared. We are on the household registration of a different courtyard in Xiaozhou, and we stayed on the ship's slave... I'll check it out to the lady."

Feng Yuheng nodded and then felt relieved.
