He Mucheng calmed down and began to plan an escape route.
Under the public gaze, it would be easy for her to escape. She could even escape by jumping into the river, as long as she could see Wang Xuan.
Not long after, the carriage stopped and the curtain was lifted. He Mucheng could clearly see that there were only two people outside the carriage.
The two of them escorted her to the left and right to the embankment. Not far away, that graceful figure was calm and indifferent in the dark night, like a fairy under the moon, who would emerge in the next moment.
He Mucheng raised the corners of his lips.
Then, almost suddenly, a dense rain of arrows shot through the air, piercing the ship and causing everyone on the ship to flee in all directions.
Wang Xuan still stood with his hands behind his back, and the people around him calmly opened their arrow shields, knocking down all fatal attacks.
In a daze, He Mucheng felt a pain in his back!
When he regained consciousness, the people on his left and right had already fallen to the ground and died.
At the same time, Wang Xuan's hoarse voice mixed with fear reached his ears, "Ayan, get down!"
It's a pity that she understood it too late. If she could have figured it out earlier, why would she have suffered this arrow?
I don’t know if I am still alive now...
The staff looked worried, "Is the County Association suspicious?"
The night wind blew away his frowning eyebrows. He smiled faintly and ordered, "Nan's Ayan jumped into the river and escaped. Let everyone prepare, salvage along the way, and strictly check the ships coming and going.
To see a person, to die is to see a corpse."
At that moment, Sima Shao's plan was drawn in her mind with a clear direction.
This salvage and rigorous investigation kept the ship floating on the vast river for nearly a month.
With that said, he walked out of the wing. About half an hour later, he returned to the room.
Wang Xuan paused. He placed the little girl on the couch, stretched out his hand to caress her pale paper cheek, and said hoarsely, "Okay, I'll send him a message."
He Mucheng ignored it. She waved her arms and quickly lit the small fireworks she had prepared in her hand.
On that day, He Mucheng was lying on the couch bored, when she heard someone knocking on the door. She answered and saw Wang Xuan step into the cabinet carrying seven-vegetable porridge.
Wang Xuan smiled, "I don't have much trust to begin with, but along the way, has he ever tried to test my loyalty?"
This is what Sima Shao said: "Try your best to fight for yourself."
This... seems to be a bit embarrassing for him. How noble is the heir of Langya Wang family, but he actually kneels down on one knee just to carry her?
He Mucheng paused, and then Wang Xuan chuckled and said, "Aside from A-Xian, this is the first time I have carried a girl with a foreign surname, Nan's A-Yan, you are so capable."
"What did the older generation say?" He Mucheng held up his chin, "When I get older, I will talk nonsense too."
Wang Xuan seemed to be walking very slowly. The moment the door opened, the cold river wind blew across his face. He Mucheng felt sober for a moment, and the malaise of the past few days also disappeared.
"Lang Jun... told Ji Yunyuan... not to worry about me, don't... don't tell him, I... I'm injured..."
Wang Dun wanted to capture Nan Yan alive in order to sow discord between Sima Shao and Ji Yunyuan, but Sima Shao used Concubine Sheng to steal and kill Concubine Sheng on the riverside to make it look like Nan's Ayan was dead.
The moment he fell to the ground, the people on the ship had already prepared countermeasures.
However, the other party's purpose seems to be very clear. This rain of arrows can be said to be specially prepared for her.
"It's too much trouble, so forget it." She waved her hand, "I know I have a special status now, so just in case, it's better not to take risks."
His stature is not as tall as Ji Yunyuan, but he is stable enough.
"It is a custom to eat seven-vegetable porridge on the first day of the year. The older generation said that if you don't eat the seven-vegetable porridge on the first day of the year, you will worry about money when you have no food in the coming year." Wang Xuan joked with a chuckle.
"You can't do it, you can't!" He Musheng chuckled, "I might have been afraid of you in the past, but now I know that you have changed..."
"Ayan, it's too dangerous for you to stay in Jiankang. Come back to Gushu with me first."
Wang Xuan was startled, then smiled heartily.
Hearing his promise, He Mucheng was no longer worried, so his eyesight went dark and he passed out.
Looking at the little girl on the couch who was still bleeding from her wound, he frowned lightly and said, "Is the doctor here?"
As she was dying, He Mucheng smelled a light and refreshing scent of woody cedar. When she opened her eyes again, she was already held in Wang Xuan's arms.
Wang Xuan straightened his back, frowned and said, "Ayan, you are too thin, remember to eat more in the future."
Apart from Sima Shao, who else could be able to quietly ambush by the river and quickly evacuate after the attack?
"Ayan is a wonderful person. How can I waste my time with you?" Wang Xuan smiled warmly, his eyes so soft that they seemed to shed tears.
The staff handed over their hands and said, "The doctor is preparing. What is Mr. Lang going to do next?"
Suddenly, crackling fireworks danced in front of Wang Xuan's eyes.
"Mr. Lang, on this New Year's Day, you can't get together with your family and can only spend time with me on this boat. Will you feel bored?" He Musheng tilted his head and asked curiously.
The door of the room was pushed open, and the medical woman held the tray and said, "Mr. Sir, please step aside."
Wang Xuan was a little hesitant, but when he saw the little girl's expectant eyes, he softened his heart and said, "I'll make arrangements."
"Changed?" Wang Xuan chuckled with interest, "Where has it changed?"
He Mucheng smiled bitterly. There was no need for him to say anything. She had already been hit hard on the head, and now she was hit by an arrow in the back. Even if she wanted to, she couldn't stand.
He Mucheng thought for a while and said seriously, "In the past, you always regarded the way of making choices as the standard of behavior and dealing with things, but now you are more casual."
Wang Xuan nodded and slowly walked to the bow of the ship.
"One hour is enough, is it enough?" After saying that, he knelt down on one knee beside the bed, with his back to He Musheng, waiting for the little girl to climb up on her own.
He closed his eyes subconsciously, and his steps back were a little messy. It wasn't until he heard the little girl's joke that he stopped and slowly returned to his usual calmness.
The staff sighed and could not respond for a long time.
She was hit by an arrow in the back and suffered a slight concussion. Even with the specific medicine provided by the system, she would have to stay in bed for at least a month.
Hearing his joke, He Mucheng felt as though she was no longer embarrassed. She placed a soft pillow on her chest and quickly climbed onto Wang Xuan's back.
Looking at the 380 points in the system, He Mucheng thought about it, gritted his teeth, and quickly exchanged it for a few small fireworks.
"Ayan, how do you feel?" He sat on the edge of the couch habitually, scooping up a spoon and bringing it to the little girl's mouth.
The staff member looked at Wang Xuan, who was sitting beside the couch, and said in a low voice, "Mr. Lang, do you really want to send Nan's Ayan to the Duke's side?"
This "panic, panic" can be said to be very arrogant. How could Wang Xuan ever be as embarrassed as he was just now? Even in a life-or-death situation, he was not afraid of danger. He was panicking entirely because of the little girl on his back!
Wang Xuan slowly exhaled the turbid air in his body, and his voice was filled with anger, "Nan's Ayan, do you believe that I threw you into the river to feed the fish?"
His clear voice revealed a dull tiredness, and when he uttered the last two words, he was already trembling a bit.
After a pause, he added, "Go back later and drink the seven-vegetable porridge."
Wang Xuan's eyes darkened, "His Majesty's people are lying in ambush by the river, trying to assassinate Concubine Sheng, so that they can hide A Yan. This move can be put to good use, and it will save me from looking for opportunities again."
"It's rare for Ayan to be so elegant. Please wait for me for a moment and I'll be back as soon as I go."
The real Ayan of the Nan clan can and can only appear openly and honestly beside Sima Shao as Concubine Sheng.
The end of the year is approaching, and He Mucheng spent the first day of the year on the river.
She winked slyly and said to Wang Xuan, "Mr. Lang, can you carry me out for a walk? I feel bored lying here. In return, I will give you a surprise."
Wang Xuan stood up when he heard someone knocking on the door.
He Mucheng didn't believe it, but she didn't care.
He Musheng curled his lips in disgust, "It doesn't taste good."
He Mucheng smiled and said, "Wang Xuan, even if you are panicking, you should be gentle. You know that I am dizzy..."
"Why do you see it?" Wang Xuan became interested.
He Mucheng leaned down, buried his face on the soft pillow between the two of them, and said comfortably, "Your Majesty's suspicion of you, you should be aware of it without me reminding you. In fact, you can completely support the Wuchang County Duke. After all, Wuchang County
If the prince gains power, as the legitimate son of the Langya Wang family, you can gain much more than if he loses power."
As soon as she said these words, Wang Xuan's back stiffened.
After a long while, he said calmly, "This is what my father owes his Sima family."
