We both stopped at the same time and saw a dozen men on horseback standing on the road, guarding a carriage in the middle.
One of the leaders shouted at us, "If you don't get out of here, your lives will be taken."
I immediately threw the stick away, ran to the leading horseman, hugged his horse and cried loudly, "Master, help! He is going to beat me to death! Help..."
"Crazy woman, get out of here!"
"I'm not a crazy woman, this person wants to belittle me, help me!" I stopped in front of the man and continued to cry.
When the thin man heard this, he hurriedly shouted, "Master, don't believe what this lunatic said. How could I be so scornful of her? It was obviously her who saw how handsome I was, and had the evil intention to rob me. She insisted on letting me take off my clothes..."
"You are wise, don't be fooled by what he said. Look at me, a weak woman, how could I rob him like this? I was born into a famous family, and I ended up like this after being persecuted. It was obviously because of his evil intentions and frivolousness.
I..." I said and wiped my face, and the mud fell down.
"uncle……"
"..."
"Let the woman get into the car." At this time, a gentle man's voice came from inside the carriage.
…
I sat in the car and looked at the young man in front of me. He was dressed in black robes, in his mid-twenties, with thick eyebrows and bright eyes, and a handsome appearance.
I made up a very bloody story about this young man. I lied that I was a young lady from a wealthy family. My family was persecuted and burned down. I was the only one left who was rescued by my housekeeper. I met bandits again during my escape. The housekeeper
He was killed to protect himself and escaped, and he begged here.
I am extremely grateful to this young master for rescuing me. Can I save him and buy him some more clothes?
The young man looked at me majestically, staring at the man's cloak I was wearing. He didn't ask whether he believed what I said or not, and he agreed without hesitation, saying that he would send someone to buy me the necessary clothes when I reached the town ahead.
The car drove for about half an hour. From time to time, the young man opened the corner of the car curtain and looked outside.
Soon, the carriage bumped for a while, and the road seemed to be very uneven. After another stick of incense, it stopped.
Mr. Xuanyi didn't get out of the car or say anything, he just sat silently, frowning and staring at me from time to time, while I curled up and pretended to be pitiful.
After a while, the voice of the guard outside the car came, "Master, here we come."
"You stay in the car and don't move around." Mr. Xuanyi warned me with a sharp look in his eyes when he got out of the car.
I nodded hurriedly and timidly. I looked at this carriage. It was definitely not like the carriages of ordinary wealthy families. I have seen many carriages of royal nobles and famous people in the capital. Judging from the decoration in this carriage, it definitely resembled those of these people.
There was something wrong with the carriage. I was suspicious. Who was this man? Who was he waiting for?
Out of curiosity, I quietly opened the corner of the car curtain. From a distance, I saw the young man and a young man wearing a light blue robe walking towards the forest. They looked so familiar from behind. The two of them were talking and walking.
, when the man in blue robe turned back inadvertently, I finally saw that person clearly.
How did he get here? What are you doing with this man? I became wary again.
More than a dozen of Mr. Xuanyi's guards were standing guard all around. I quietly got out of the car. One of the guards looked at me. I hurriedly covered my stomach and muttered: "I'm in a hurry!"
The man frowned, as if he was disgusted with me, squinted his head and said in a low voice: "Come back as soon as possible, if you are playing tricks, be careful with your head!" Although the voice was low, it was full of violence.
I nodded submissively. These people must have kept me here because they didn't want anyone to know their whereabouts.
The fear made me forget about the pain in my feet and I ran away to the mountain with all my strength.
I don’t know how long I ran, but I couldn’t run any longer. I rested under a tree and stared at the road down the mountain. An hour later, I saw the original team of carriages and horses passing by.
After waiting for a while, the person who made the appointment with the young master, Prince Kang, was not seen. Thinking about it, he must have left long ago.
I looked at the thing in my hand. I took it from the car when I got off the car. It was a big jade pendant. I had never seen such a big jade pendant. There were two characters on it. I didn’t recognize these two traditional Chinese characters.
, judging by the fineness of this jade, it is estimated to be worth a lot of money, which can be exchanged for clothes and food.
I went down the mountain and limped along the dirt road, leaning on a stick. I paid attention to the movements around me from time to time.
Not long after walking, there was a sudden sound of horse hooves behind me. I lowered my head and closed my eyes and leaned towards the roadside, but the horse stopped beside me.
I peeked out of the corner of my eye, really afraid that something might happen. King Kang was sitting on the horse, still looking at me seriously. I pretended not to recognize him and kept walking forward.
"I'll take you back!" His voice came from behind.
I ignored him, lowered my head and kept walking.
"You think you'll be safe once you leave?"
"Young Master has admitted the wrong person!" I said harshly.
"Really? We just cooperated so quickly and you regretted it? Don't you have the ability?"
"I don't understand what the young master said?" I continued to act stupid.
"I rescued you from the cliff, but you don't understand?"
"Do you think it's still good for you if I'm like this?" I turned around and said angrily.
He dismounted and said sarcastically, "Have you known each other?"
I was angry and said, "Your Highness, Prince Kang, please let the little girl go. Let's go our separate ways. Just treat me as dead. You can find someone else to do something big for you!"
The little girl? King Kang sneered, "Are you sure everyone should go their separate ways?"
"Sure!" I replied.
He walked towards me, and I noticed that although his injured left arm did not move, his right hand was still holding the sword from the beginning to the end. I was shocked and looked at his eyes covered with a layer of evil spirit and his steps were steady.
He looked at me intently, and when he saw me approaching, a hint of ominousness suddenly passed through my heart, and I turned around and ran away.
I had just run a few o'clock when my feet hurt. I stumbled and fell to the ground. Just as I was about to stand up, a horse rushed out and stopped in front of me. Immediately sat a man in a red shirt. The fox man still looked coquettish.
He smiled at me, tightened the reins, looked at me on the horse, and said mockingly, "Can you be more adventurous?"
"Get away as far as you want!" I gritted my teeth and stood up, replying angrily. I was really haunted and met these wolf cubs again.
I swung the stick in my hand and said, "Get out of my way, or I will break your legs."
"I think it's better to take care of your legs first!" The fox man said, raising his head and sneering behind him, "Seventh brother, come here to see your 'begging wife'."
I turned around and saw that behind King Kang, Sima Jue and Sage Xiao and others were riding over.
He glanced sternly at King Kang who was standing aside, and then glared at the fox boy. His eyes fell on me, and the group dismounted.
"Sister-in-law Seven? Are you okay?" When Sage Xiao saw me, he looked me up and down with his eyes wide open and asked.
Wang Wu and Song Chu hesitantly called out, "Princess? Are you okay?"
Sima Jue also looked me up and down, frowned, and there was a sullen look in his eyes. The corners of his mouth moved, but he still stretched out his hand to me, "Sirou! Come here!"
