Chapter 487: No Way Back

Gu Fei's heart skipped a beat. Could they be investigating runaway slaves?

Fortunately, Nanzhao was not like the British Empire. Slaves were not branded on their foreheads, otherwise they would not be able to leave the city.

Xiao Yu signaled everyone to stop and said to Pocai, "Go and find out what happened first."

Everyone stopped at a tea shed on the side of the road to drink tea and wait.

Pocai went away for a while, then came back and whispered, "Many mines have lost a large number of jades in recent days. Now they are strictly investigating people who leave the city, especially those who carry jades with them."

Gu Fei was stunned for a moment, then her face flushed slightly. Needless to say, this was all caused by her.

Xiao Yu noticed her discomfort and glanced at her.

Shitou said, "We also bought jade, what should we do?"

Pocai smiled, "When we bought jade, didn't we have a certificate? Just take it out."

"The mines in Nanzhao Kingdom are all owned by the royal family. This certificate was originally made by Nanzhao Kingdom to prevent jade from being smuggled out of the country. It is stamped with the seal of the government. Jade without a certificate will be confiscated when leaving the city."

Gu Fei breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Zhuzi. The jade she bought had never been touched from beginning to end. Zhuzi kept it all.

Zhuzi opened the bundle and took out a piece of paper, "Is this it?"

Pocai looked at it, "This is it."

Xiao Yu stood up, "Then let's go, what are you waiting for."

When they arrived at the city gate, the jade in Shitou and Zhuzi's bundles were indeed checked. Fortunately, the soldiers let them out of the city after seeing the certificate.

After leaving the city gate and running for a while, Pocai pointed to a boundary marker on the side of the road and said, "This is already the territory of our Great Ying Dynasty."

The people who had been tense all the time finally felt relieved at this moment.

Gu Sanlang, who was riding on the horse, suddenly started to cry.

Then the rescued people started to cry.

Xiao Yu looked back at Gu Fei, "Take a break."

Gu Fei nodded and got off the horse.

Everyone got off the horse.

Gu Sanlang wiped his tears with his sleeves embarrassedly and looked at the girl, "I, I didn't want to cry."

But I really didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to set foot on the land of the Great Ying Dynasty.

Gu Fei smiled at him and handed him a handkerchief, "It's okay, cry if you want to."

Gu Sanlang wiped his tears and suddenly grinned, "Don't cry, it's a great thing to be able to escape, I can't even laugh!"

At this time, several people around him also laughed.

For a while, the laughter of several men echoed in the woods.

When the laughter died down, Xiao Yu suddenly asked calmly, "What are your plans next?"

Gu Sanlang didn't even think about it, "Of course, I'm going back to the barracks."

Gu Fei frowned. She didn't want her third brother to go back to the barracks again. This time, Sanlang didn't die and was rescued. It was just a kind of luck. Who can guarantee that there will be such good luck next time?

Xiao Yu glanced at Gu Fei and said slowly, "It may be a bit troublesome to go back to the barracks. You have all been reported dead."

"The list of dead has been reported to the court, so it can't be changed."

Several people were stunned, you looked at me, I looked at you.

Wu Qiang suddenly said, "Then can't I go home?"

Xiao Yu nodded slowly, "You can go home, but your household registration has been cancelled."

"I can go home, I can go home!" Wu Qiang automatically ignored Xiao Yu's words and jumped up with his fists clenched.

Chen Ping and Wang Laoer also had a trace of joy on their faces, but they soon calmed down.

Only Gu Sanlang was in a daze.
