Chapter 2 Becoming someone else's stand-in(1/2)

Facing the bandits, Leng Yingchun's calmness was just fake. God knows how scared she was. Her palms and backs were sweating, so much so that she moved her hand to the side and moved the knife to the neck of the little leader.

The little leader's neck was cut by Leng Yingchun and it bled. He was so frightened that he dared not move.

"Little grandma, spare my life!"

The bandits also stopped and said, "Don't, don't hurt the second master."

The girls were even more shocked.

This little girl is so stupid, how could she have such amazing explosive power?

However, there is hope for escape, but they can't control that much.

Leng Yingchun pushed the little boss against the wall with his backhand.

The girls quickly tied up the bandits, and then tied up the little leaders and piled them together.

"Yingchun, what should we do now?"

What else could happen?

Thirty-Six Stratagems The best way to go is to run away.

When Leng Yingchun was arrested, he noticed that there was a cliff behind the house.

If you can escape to the mountains opposite, and it's dark, you'll have enough time to escape to another place.

Leng Yingchun took the saber and asked them to get the rope and go out.

There was no one outside the door, and the bandits who were guarding all came in and were tied up.

They didn't dare to relax and quickly reached the edge of the cliff. Without thinking too much, they took advantage of the rope to get to the bottom of the cliff.

Everyone was worried about being discovered by the bandits, so they ran forward again in the dark. Even though they were very tired, they did not dare to relax and kept running.

When it was almost dawn, they went outside a city and vaguely saw the name of the city: Pingshuikeng.

They felt that it was far away from the bandits' den and quite safe, so they relaxed and stopped to rest.

In order to ensure everyone's safety, they did not dare to all fall asleep and divided into two teams to guard each other.

After the sky was completely clear, they went to the city.

After some inquiring, I found out that there was a soup kitchen in front of me.

It is said that it was specially opened by Su Jingxian, the son of the Marquis of Jing'an, a wealthy family in the capital.

It was said that the young Marquis originally wanted to go to Sham Shui Pond, but unexpectedly the village was deserted, so they had no choice but to go to Ping Shui Pond, where the refugees gathered.

Through understanding, Leng Yingchun finally understood that this world is called Da Yu State, where famines are constant and the people are in dire straits.

The emperor was fatuous and incompetent, he didn't care about big things or small things, he just wanted to have fun.

Leng Yingchun didn't care at all who opened the porridge shed, as long as there was food to eat.

Since fleeing the famine, she had gone without food for two consecutive days, and she is now severely malnourished.

Ten people went to the porridge shed and received a bowl of gruel. After eating half full, they were very satisfied.

Leng Yingchun and her sisters spent half a month safely.

As I was walking on the street that day, the imperial court was selecting concubines and maids, and the people were complaining about this.

In a year of famine, it is pitiful for the people to flee everywhere without clothes.

It doesn’t matter if the rulers don’t come up with governance methods, they just want to enjoy themselves.

The common people secretly prayed that a savior would fly from the sky, overthrow the rulers, and allow the common people to live a quiet and peaceful life.

Leng Yingchun felt very calm while listening to the whispers of the people in the crowd.

She knew that she was ugly and her conditions did not allow her to enter the palace, but she was happy and at ease.

She had already thought that when she became fatter and the young prince no longer opened a porridge shed, she would go with her sisters to find a secluded mountain village in the south of the Yangtze River to open up wasteland and farm, so as to fulfill her promise to Leng Yingsong.

"Leng Yingchun, hurry up, it's time to serve porridge!"

It was the sisters' shouting of "Leng Yingchun" that caused trouble. Leng Yingchun was targeted by a local wealthy family named Leng.

"It's coming!" Leng Yingchun ran forward happily.

When she came to this world, her favorite thing was watching the long queue waiting to distribute food.

She was also very grateful to the young prince for his generosity and traveling thousands of miles to come here to give porridge.

It is said that this young prince is not very old, but he is extremely handsome, talented in literature and martial arts, has a good heart, and is very friendly to others.

Leng Yingchun never cared about the young marquis' affairs. She knew that being too close to him was not a good thing.

In the era of escape, only keeping a low profile and keeping a low profile will prevent anything from happening.

After the sisters had eaten, they went to the wild river to play.

The stream is very small, but it is 10,000 times better than my hometown. At least I won’t have to flee due to lack of water.

They longed for the rain from the sky to alleviate the famine years.

Their ambitions are very small. They don't want to leave their hometown. They just want to have the opportunity to return to the village.

I believe that by then, everyone in the village will go back and everyone can live together again.

After chatting, the sisters prepared to sleep in the shabby thatched hut.

A sister overthrew Leng Yingchun.

The other sisters just thought they were playing and didn't stop them too much. They just laughed and left.

Leng Yingchun thought that it would not be easy for everyone on the road to escape, so he didn't care.

As soon as she got up, someone hit the back of her neck, and she cursed in her mind.

Mother, who brought trouble to her?

He fell to the ground unconscious.

Leng Yingchun woke up again and found that she was wearing beautiful clothes and living in a magnificent room.

Before she could realize what was going on, a group of people rushed in.

The girl in front was about the same age as her and had an average appearance. She pinched Leng Yingchun's chin.

"What are you doing?" Leng Yingchun slapped her hand away, "Who are you?"

"If this girl hadn't been selected for the palace concubine selection list because she was too young, and instead wanted to be a palace maid, I wouldn't have let you take my place!"

After the girl said this, Leng Yingchun understood and smiled coldly.

"I will take your place in the palace as a palace maid? Are you kidding me? Aren't you afraid of being found out and implicating the nine clans?"

Leng Yingchun knew that impersonation was illegal.

The girl smiled coldly, "Your name is Leng Yingchun, and my name is Leng Yingchun. We are similar in stature and appearance. We won't be noticed if we are submerged in the crowd. This place is so far away from the capital, who would know who you are."

Where’s the fake one?”

Leng Yingchun exclaimed, "How do you know my name is Leng Yingchun?"

The girl pointed to the Yingchun tag, which had the simple words "Leng Yingchun" on it. It could be regarded as an ancient ID card.

The palace is a deep well, more terrifying than a den of thieves. People will fall to the ground if they are not careful.

Leng Yingchun was very reluctant to take over and asked what the consequences would be.

"What will you do if I don't agree?"

The girl was already sure that Leng Yingchun would agree to it, so she got closer and smiled happily.

"If you dare to resist, your sisters will die. You don't want to take nine lives, right?"

Leng Yingchun really couldn't bear others to die because of her, and there was no other good solution at the moment.

When the girl saw that she had agreed, she looked at her gently.

"There are raging famines in the world. It will be difficult for a girl who is fleeing the famine to go anywhere. But when she gets to the palace, even a little-known palace maid can still have enough food and clothing as long as she works properly."

Regardless of whether Leng Yingchun wants it or not, she will enter the palace under her false name.

In order to make Leng Yingchun look more like a girl from a wealthy family, the family told the story of the eighteen generations of Leng family's ancestors and their close relationships, forcing her to memorize it.

She recited the words and then relaxed.

Leng Yingchun also learned that the Leng family only had a daughter with the same name as her.

The current emperor is ridiculous and wants to have fun. He is also arrogant and violent. He has killed many concubines. He urgently needs innocent women from the people to fill his harem.

Miss Leng was innocently selected.

The Leng family did not want Miss Leng to suffer in the palace, so they allowed Leng Yingchun to be a substitute at the risk of beheading.

In order to make Leng Yingchun look more like the eldest lady of the Leng family, they also specially hired an etiquette woman to teach Leng Yingchun some relevant etiquette.

Leng Yingchun has also seen ancient etiquette on TV and has a general idea.

After a few lessons from the etiquette mother-in-law, her demeanor and appearance were in place, and she looked a bit like the girl from the host family, which surprised and delighted the Leng family.
