She was still in the stage of lingering fear after escaping death. Li Si asked her to pack her luggage, and she obeyed.

She didn't feel much when she left Zheng's house, but when she followed Li Si to a small alley, she was stunned. It took her a while to react before she suddenly felt the urge to cry.

There are more than a dozen families living in the alley, and the environment is dirty and messy. The courtyard where they live has not been lived in for I don’t know how many years. There are spider webs everywhere, and the low walls are peeled off by the wind and rain.

Every room is also dark and damp.

Li Yu used to keep her fingers crossed. Although she hates the environment where she lives now, she is unwilling to take action to clean it up.

Seeing Li Si, she felt resentful and wanted to instigate Li Si, but Li Si did not tolerate her and deliberately chose a courtyard close to the people, not just to let Li Yu experience the life of the lower class people.

So Zi Gu packed up a house and moved in. Li Yu stood in the yard full of weeds and yelled at Li Si's house. Li Si opened the door and said, "Can you be let go?"

You came out because I interceded for you in front of the emperor. If you don’t want to come out, it’s okay. I can talk to the emperor now and let you go back to prison."

The curses in Li Yu's throat stopped abruptly. Thinking of the gleaming torture instruments in the prison and the ferocious expressions of the jailers, she couldn't help but shudder and did not dare to curse again.

Li Si was very satisfied with her performance and reminded: "Remember, in order to atone for the sins of our husband and parents-in-law, we must fast, chant and copy Buddhist scriptures for the rest of our lives. This has been done in front of the Queen Mother and the Emperor, so you still have to

Hurry up, pack up and have a rest, and then find a job that makes money, otherwise you won’t have money to buy pens, ink, paper and inkstones.”

Li Si pronounced the words "our husband and parents-in-law" very hard, which made Li Yu, who was already holding his breath, feel hurt internally, and the look he looked at Li Si couldn't help but turn resentful.

Li Si must have rescued her on purpose, but placed so many restrictions on her. She will have to be Zheng Rong's concubine for the rest of her life, shorter than Li Si by a head.

But if she were asked to abandon her identity as Huiniang, admit that the prime minister's five thousand gold daughter was not dead, and go to jail with her parents to wait for the fate of being exiled, her hatred would weaken again.

The residence is desolate and simple, she eats fasting, chants Buddha's name, and has green lanterns for company. Although it is considered hell compared to her previous life, at least she is still a relatively free person. She does not have to face the situation of being acclimatized or being whipped and working hard, which will lead to her death.

.

Li Yu still squatted down and pulled up the weeds.

The setting sun is reflected in the horizon, and the wind blowing in the trees is more desolate than yesterday. It seems that overnight, the scorching heat has turned into cool autumn, the sky is high, the clouds are sparse, the wind is blowing, and the mountain rain is about to come.

The back figure of Li Yu pulling grass is pitiful against the background of the surrounding environment, but from the front, her eyes are fierce and ruthless, and she thinks that the grass under her hand is Li Si, and she wants to cut him into pieces.

Suddenly she had a flash of inspiration, and it didn't matter that Li Si beat her. She had to wear vegetarian food, plain clothes, and the ancient Buddha with green lanterns, and Li Si did the same.

The corners of her ruthless lips curled up with a hint of sarcasm. What did Li Si have to be proud of? It didn't matter that she was a sick girl, but she knew how to do martial arts. She was still sick, and now she had no money for medicine. She wanted to see if Li Si could survive.

A few days.

Li Yu had to take a break after working for a while. After cleaning up a room, it was already dark and he had no money to eat, so he put on his clothes and leaned in the corner, feeling sorry for himself.

I was still afraid of snakes, insects, rats, and ants, but due to fatigue, I soon fell into a dream of gold and jade.

In the middle of the night, when it was still dark, there was a commotion in the alley. Li Yu was woken up in a daze. She was still rubbing her sleepy eyes when she heard someone knocking on their courtyard door hurriedly.

Li Si had already opened the door. He was neatly dressed and didn't know if he had slept at night.

"Madam, the barbarians have arrived at the city. Your Majesty asked me to pick you up."

The visitor was Hai Ding, the young eunuch who often followed Qi Jing. When he saw Li Si, he asked Li Si to follow him quickly.

Before Li Si could leave the hospital, Li Yu, who heard Hai Ding's words, rushed out first, grabbed Hai Ding and Li Si and begged them to take her away too.

Li Yu thought that the emperor was going to abandon the city and flee, so he sent someone to pick up Li Si. Even if he begged for nothing, she had to follow him. Otherwise, barbarians would enter the city, burn, kill and plunder. It was conceivable that her fate would not be good.

"Take you with me? We are not escaping, but we are going to meet the enemy at the city gate. Are you sure you want us to take you with us?"

The full moon is dim and the light is dim, depicting the chaotic gray shadow of the capital.

Li Yu said firmly, "I want to go with you."

Of course she didn't want to go to the city gate to meet the enemy, but she felt that Li Si must have lied to her when he said this. Li Si just didn't want her to be saved. Bah, it was really insidious and cunning. She must not be fooled by Li Si. She must
