Jiu Ge’s Beloved Spirit

In the place where he was beaten, many wounds had become rotten and smelly because they had not been treated in time.

She seemed to feel no pain, hunched over and walked slowly.

The street is full of the cries of small stalls, and the smell of steamed buns wafts not far away.

She clutched her stomach and seemed to have no strength left.

I found a random place and sat down on the spot.

The whole person was curled up into a small ball, motionless, taking it as a rest.

Across the street where she was, a group of people were gathered around, seemingly looking at something.

There were officers and soldiers holding cold halberds, guarding there without moving.

The woman was so hungry that she really had no energy left.

His eyes were dull, looking ahead, showing no reaction.

Someone was discussing next to them, and their voices came over.

"Hey, have you heard? The prime minister's daughter has disappeared. It seems that she was abducted."

"What? There is such a thing?"

"No, it's written on the notice over there. The prime minister's daughter has been missing for many days. The emperor and the empress are offering a large reward to anyone who can provide information. They are bound to find the daughter."

"Eh? Didn't the Prime Minister commit suicide out of fear of crime before? Why are Your Majesty and Your Majesty still looking for his daughter?"

"Tsk, you don't understand this. Just because the prime minister is guilty doesn't mean that your majesty will punish his daughter. Besides, no matter what, the prime minister's daughter is the niece of your majesty and the empress, and the empress has a deep relationship with her. Yes, of course I will be anxious if something like this happens."

"So the palace said that there is a huge reward? How much is the reward?"

"The reward is a hundred taels of gold! If I can find the Prime Minister's daughter, the reward will be there immediately."

The dirty woman turned her head mechanically.

When the two people who were discussing saw her, they immediately avoided her like the plague.

Once they were far away, the sound was no longer heard.

The woman didn't move either, just sitting there blankly, her eyes stagnant.

More and more people gathered in front of the notice wall, and everyone was talking about this matter.

The officers and soldiers guarding the notice wall maintained order in a cold voice.

But soon, the crowd gave way.

Everyone covered their mouths and noses, showing disgust, and avoided him one after another.

A woman with a dirty smell all over her body walked closer, her hands hanging down, her steps slow, her eyes fixed on the notice on the wall.

The officers and soldiers guarding there obviously took a few steps back.

"Hey, you stinky beggar, get out of here! Don't come here to cause trouble!"

The halberd stopped in front of her.

The woman didn't leave, she just stood there, looking at the bright yellow notice on the wall.

I stared blankly and read the entire text.

"Reward...gold...a hundred taels..."

She was talking to herself, her words unclear.

"Really...there really is...a hundred taels of gold..."

The officers and soldiers looked at each other.

The crowd nearby laughed.

"Hey, you stinky beggar, are you trying to get this hundred taels of gold?"

"When the sky is clear and the sun is shining brightly, I'm starting to dream!"

"Who says it's not? Just her?"

"If she can do it, then I can do it too—"

The woman suddenly stepped forward and took off the royal list.

The expressions of the officers and soldiers changed and they yelled, "What are you doing!? Revealing the emperor's list at will is a capital crime!"

The woman took a step forward, her eyes firm.

"I know the whereabouts of the Prime Minister's daughter, and I know where she is now."

As soon as he said this, everyone was in an uproar.

The expressions of the officers and soldiers instantly became serious, and their halberds hit the ground with a loud sound.

"Take her away!"

"yes!"
