Murong Feiyan retracted her sword and ran out of the woods. When she was about to leave the woods, she turned around and took a look and found that all the people had left. What surprised Murong Feiyan was that Hu Xiaotian actually
He did not lead the four servants far away, but poked his head out of the woods and looked around.
Seeing Murong Feiyan's safe return, Hu Xiaotian greeted him with a smile on his face and said kindly: "Feiyan, you're back!"
Murong Feiyan rolled her eyes at him angrily and said, "Am I familiar with you?"
Hu Xiaotian nodded and pointed to the woods: "Have all the horse thieves left?"
Murong Feiyan said: "Let's go!"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Didn't you catch anyone alive?"
Murong Feiyan said: "They are all as timid as mice, but they are really capable of escaping." As she spoke, she looked at the servants coldly.
Several servants all lowered their heads in shame, but secretly thought in their hearts, there were so many people just now, if they had not run faster, they would have been chopped down.
Hu Xiaotian poked his head into the woods again, and then walked forward. Although Liang Dazhuang had just been punched by Hu Xiaotian, he still did not show any resentment at this moment, and showed his personal servant's loyalty vividly: "Young Master
,Danger!"
Hu Xiaotian ignored him. The moon slowly rose into the night sky. The moonlight was like water, shining on the official road. From one end of the woods, you could see the other end. There were some weapons that were not suitable for taking away scattered on the road, and there were also a few because of
Apart from the shoes that were lost in the hasty escape, there was not a single person to be seen.
Li Jinhao and Shao Yijiao also followed and asked cautiously: "Will there be an ambush?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Ambush your uncle!" Through this unexpected incident, Hu Xiaotian directly knocked the professional ethics scores of these four servants below the passing line. Fortunately, he had the foresight to get Murong Feiyan over, otherwise
I'm afraid that my life will be over before I even get out of the capital city.
Although Hu Xiaotian's Snow Cong was tripped by the tripping rope, luckily it was not seriously injured. Hoover was worried that the horse would be frightened, so he tied Snow Cong to the carriage and untied another maroon horse for Hu Xiaotian to ride on.
Murong Feiyan fell behind this time, so Hu Xiaotian naturally followed her pace and asked all four servants to go ahead to clear the way.
The four servants passed through the woods cautiously. As expected, there was no ambush. When they saw the open area in front of them, several of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Perhaps because of the near-miss episode just now, or perhaps because he couldn't get to the inn in time anyway, Murong Feiyan was no longer in a hurry and rode forward leisurely, not so much as rushing.
Talking about a leisurely stroll, she said to Hu Xiaotian: "Your servants are really loyal."
Hu Xiaotian said: "A bunch of wine bags and rice bags can add trouble, but no one can help. Why don't I send all these rubbish back to save trouble?"
Murong Feiyan shook his head and sent them all back. Wouldn't it mean that the two of them had to face each other all the way? That would not work. Hu Xiaotian was not afraid. He was also afraid of others gossiping.
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Are you afraid that others will gossip?"
Murong Feiyan secretly sighed in his heart, this guy is really as shrewd as a ghost, he can guess whatever he is thinking. He raised his head and looked at the crescent moon in the sky that looked like a thrush, and said softly: "With them following, at least there are people to help."
You take care of the baggage and horses.”
Hu Xiaotian said: "It's really strange to say that this gang of horse thieves is coming with such ferocity that dozens or hundreds of people ran away at any time. Why are they so afraid of you?"
Murong Feiyan said: "I have told you a long time ago that evil will not prevail against good!"
Hu Xiaotian nodded, then shook his head and said, "No, do they know you?"
When Murong Feiyan heard him speak like this, her pretty face suddenly became serious: "Hu Xiaotian, what do you mean?" She was not angry, but guilty.
Hu Xiaotian chuckled: "I just said that casually, don't mind it. After all, you are the number one goddess catcher in the capital. There are not a few people who know you, and you should offend a lot of people, right? These horse thieves
Most likely, I am here for you."
Murong Feiyan blurted out: "I think they are here for you!"
Hu Xiaotian actually nodded: "I also think it is, there are few horse thieves around the capital. Although this group of horse thieves is large in number, there are few masters. They should not be the group that ambushed us on Tuo Street that day. I didn't offend me in the capital."
You can find out who you are with just your fingers, Feiyan, have you told anyone else about our appointment in Xichuan together?"
Murong Feiyan's expression was obviously unnatural, but she tried her best to control her expression. She was afraid that Hu Xiaotian would see something. The news of her departure to Xichuan was very sudden. She only told her friend Tang Qingxuan that she had just admitted
She revealed Tang Tiehan's identity and let him go. In fact, she had figured out the whole incident. Tang Qingxuan must have told her eldest brother about it. There was resentment between the Tang brothers and sisters and Hu Xiaotian.
, although the last incident was settled, the story of Hu Xiaotian teasing/playing with Tang Qingxuan and snatching her away to the Shangshu Mansion was still widely spread. The Tang family brothers and sisters have always felt it was a shame and humiliation, and they wished they could get rid of Hu Xiaotian and then quickly
.
Before leaving, Murong Feiyan just wanted to say something to his good sisters, but he didn't expect that the speaker was unintentional and the listener was intentional. Tang Tiehan actually set up an ambush here, pretending to be a horse thief, with the intention of killing Hu Xiaotian. From the situation of the gang just now,
It seems that they did not care about their own safety at all, because Murong Feiyan couldn't help but criticize Tang Qingxuan, a long-time friend. As far as this matter is concerned, the Tang brothers and sisters obviously did something wrong.
Moreover, it violated the laws of Dakang. If Murong Feiyan had not been merciful, it might have been a serious crime of beheading. Letting Tang Tiehan go and keeping this secret for the Tang family was actually the same as what Murong Feiyan had always insisted on.
The principles were contrary to each other, and she was very conflicted in her heart.
When Hu Xiaotian spoke, he was already quietly observing Murong Feiyan's expression, even the slightest change could be seen clearly. Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "These horse thieves don't seem to be professional, Feiyan, do you think there is such a thing?"
Maybe some of my enemies got the news that I was going to Xichuan in advance, so they deliberately disguised themselves as horse thieves and ambush me here?"
Murong Feiyan said angrily: "You have offended so many people, how do I know?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Not much. Do you think he is from the Tang family?"
Murong Feiyan's heart was beating fast. This guy was so cunning, almost like a monster. When he single-handedly entered the forest just now, this guy and the four servants were all taking refuge outside. They didn't even think about it.
Maybe he could clearly see the scene inside. Even if he was nearby and the people were all in disguise, he might not be able to recognize it. Unexpectedly, he could actually deduce that it was the Tang family! Murong Feiyan then thought that maybe he was blind.
He was confused, so he sneered and said: "Don't you think I colluded with the horse thieves to harm you?"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Probably not. If you really want to harm me, even if I have ten heads, I won't be enough for you to chop off."
"It's good to know!" Murong Feiyan shook the reins fiercely, and the horse took the lead in running forward. Hu Xiaotian raised his head and looked forward, but he saw that Wangjing Station had already arrived.
