The sky was already slightly bright, and Su Qingyi walked out of the imperial city, wandering aimlessly on the streets like a wandering spirit.
Small businessmen and hawkers had come out to set up stalls one after another, and they all passed by her in a hurry. She looked at the figures passing by her in a daze, and suddenly felt that this scene seemed a bit familiar.
Suddenly, her steps stopped abruptly
In front, a vendor was happily setting up a stall. He was still in the same seat, selling the same things, and the alley behind him was still shabby...
She unknowingly took steps and stopped at the entrance of the alley
That day, they plundered everything in the room and successfully escaped with their bags. It was also the same time that day. They squatted in the alley panting. She was going to go out to see where there was a pawn shop.
Cui Oriole held her sleeve tightly and looked at her pitifully like a child. She said in fear, "Miss will not leave Cui Oriole alone and never come back..."
She rolled her eyes helplessly and said she was a silly girl
She also remembered Cui Oriole's happy and moved expression when she finished talking to the vendor and returned to the alley. As long as she could follow her, as long as she could be by her side, as long as the lady didn't leave her alone, she would
I'm so satisfied...
"Hey, Miss, what's wrong with you?" The vendor walked over cautiously and looked at the tearful woman in front of him.
Tears fell from the corners of my eyes uncontrollably, and my heart felt as cold and stinging as a cold arrow.
She turned back, and a hint of surprise flashed in the vendor's eyes, "Ah, isn't this... isn't this the lady from that day!? I heard the butcher at the city gate said that you were out of town that day, but you were worried. Fortunately, you were
Came back safe and sound”
Su Qingyi didn't speak, she just cried silently
The hawker said: "Speaking of it, you are really lucky. Just a few days after you went out, the traitor was killed. And do you know that the seventh prince was almost killed by the traitor! But our seventh princess heard that the latter one
He went straight into the camp, kidnapped the rebel leader Zhang Ping, rescued the seventh princess, and even blocked the prince's sword. He was really brave and strong!"
The vendor finished speaking happily. Seeing Su Qingyi crying harder and harder, he felt a little flustered. "Hey, girl, what's the matter with you crying like this?"
Su Qingyi shook her head, turned around and continued walking forward
We walked all the way outside the city gate. It was late summer, and there was already a bit of chill in the morning.
It was dark all around. Su Qingyi was tired from walking and stood in the road, motionless.
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound in her ears. Su Qingyi was startled and looked back towards the grass.
She saw the grass surging rapidly from far to near. She touched the dagger on her waist. Suddenly! A man in black emerged from the grass and slashed at her with a knife!
Su Qingyi took a step back and pulled out a dagger to block the incoming broadsword. The broadsword hit the dagger, making a crisp collision sound. Su Qingyi's hands softened from the shock, and there was a faint bloodshot look on the palms of her hands.
The man in black raised his hand and was about to strike the second knife. At this moment, a strong gust of wind came quickly, and there was a faint sound of flesh being pierced by a sharp weapon.
Su Qingyi opened her eyes wide, looking at the blade in front of her that was almost touching her. However, the man in black stood there, eyes wide open in fear, and slowly fell back.
Before Su Qingyi could react, she had already been pulled into a broad embrace. For a moment, there was a rustling sound, and many men in black suddenly emerged from the grass on both sides, slashing at her with swords and swords.
