"He said thank you." Gu Mo Yan expressed his gratitude again, but unfortunately, he did not see it. The short one helped him speak up, and when he saw the flower head fall silent, he pulled Gu Moyan and left.

"That person would go to the nearby capital to beg or perform some acrobatics every few days. My big brother only knows him after a fight. He's amazing." The short one couldn't help but speak with envy.

Is that so? Gu Moyan didn't say anything as she looked ahead. They had walked on a small path and circled around an alley. Therefore, she didn't know what had happened outside.

"Can you take me to that alley this afternoon?" When they arrived at the dilapidated house, Gu Moyan was standing in front of the small man. He gestured frantically, but the small man didn't know where to go.

"Sure, then you can stay here for now. I'll be back in the afternoon." With that, the short man left, leaving Gu Moyan in the room. He hoped that everything would go smoothly by the time they left the city in the afternoon.

"Stand to the side, stand to the side, line up, raise your head, check one by one." The soldiers standing in front of the city gate shouted in dissatisfaction at the number of people blocking the city gate.

Each of the soldiers holding a weapon at the city gate had a blueprint on them, which depicted the current Imperial Palace's Imperial Concubine Gu. The Emperor had steeled his heart to capture Imperial Concubine Gu, and as long as it was a few neighboring counties, the soldiers guarding the gate would arrange the blueprints one by one.

Gu Moyan had originally been walking in front with the beggars, but when she saw the soldiers grabbing onto her so tightly, she slowly dragged herself to the end. She was dozens of meters away from the soldiers, but Gu Moyan still hid her face in her chest, afraid that they would see it when they looked back. Even though he was fully prepared.

He had no luggage, and his clothes matched the figure of a beggar, except that the mud on his face was now dry and stuck to his face.

The soldiers had captured no less than ten people who looked like Imperial Concubine Gu from the morning until now, one of them already had sixty to seventy percent of them. When they asked, they replied timidly, "Who would be so noble as a Imperial Concubine?" They immediately settled him down and continued, since the king had given them a lot of time, they would rather miss out than let a single one of them go.

The line was slowly moving forward, and the sun was slowly setting. From time to time, Gu Moyan would tiptoe up to look at the line in front of him, and he noticed that the further back they went, the more carefully the soldiers checked. Some of them even asked them to wipe their faces clean and compare them with portraits, which was why they were able to get out of the city.

With this, there was another group of youths around Gu Moyan's age. It was only now that he realized there were so many similarities between the two of them. However, all of these teenagers were looking expectantly at their families, wondering when the soldiers would let them through. Some of them were a bit bolder, resisting the soldiers and shouting loudly about whether they were just Imperial Concubine Gu or not. However, after doing so, they would give their families some silver taels and would have nothing more to say.

Gu Moyan nervously looked at the ground and shrunk her neck. She wished that there was someone who looked like her and even admitted that she was Imperial Concubine Gu. Mo Gu Han didn't need to search for his whereabouts. Of course, if he had found out about it in the end, he would have long left this place.
