Su Jin'er was indeed captured by people from the "Mutian Sect".
Originally, the situation between the north and the south was tense, and Su Qinghou had ordered the people in the southern courtyard to try not to easily step into the "Mutian Sect"'s sphere of influence. However, Su Jin'er had a quarrel with her stepmother and was lectured by her father. She did not want to see it anymore.
As for the stepmother who was good at trying to sow discord between her and her father.
My stepmother behaved perfectly in front of my father. She can be called the kindest and most virtuous woman in the world.
But whenever she and her stepmother were alone together, her stepmother was completely different. She often picked on Su Jin'er. This time, her stepmother even ridiculed that a daughter like Su Jin'er should quickly find a good husband and raise her children to avoid being criticized.
Marquis Wu was embarrassed. He also said that when Young Master Qin of the Northern Mansion proposed marriage, he should have accepted it. If the two families had gotten married, the situation between the north and the south would not have turned into a sword-fight. All this was Su Jin'er's fault.
Su Jin'er was not a submissive person. She was very angry after hearing these words and had a big quarrel with her stepmother.
Su Jin'er felt aggrieved, so she secretly ran to Jinzhou to find her aunt.
Unexpectedly, he was discovered by members of the "Mutian God Sect", ambushed and captured.
At this critical moment, Dong Xiang, the leader of the Jinzhou Hall, was overjoyed to have caught the apple of Su Qinghou's eye. This was simply a great achievement. If Su Jin'er was escorted to Beifu, he would at worst be promoted to the deputy leader of the Hebei branch.
.
But after all, the person being escorted was Su Qinghou's daughter, and she was also Liang Hongyan's niece. In order to avoid unnecessary complications, Dong Xiang made careful arrangements for this and ordered that no one should make any publicity about it.
Dong Xiang put Su Jin'er into a carriage and escorted him with ten masters. They dressed up as official officials.
The group of people was almost out of Jinzhou territory, but they still didn't see Deputy Hall Master Wu coming to join them.
Dong Xiang was very angry. He knew that Deputy Hall Master Wu was not very capable, but he had always been dissatisfied with him. This boy was a relative of Jiang Baili, one of the four guardians, otherwise he would have shown his disdain.
It is midsummer now, the sun is blazing in the sky, the air is hot and stuffy. A strange smell evaporates from the ground, like the smell of gunpowder and the smell of corpses.
The group was sweating profusely and miserable.
It was even more depressing in the carriage, and Su Jin'er shouted to come out for some air.
There happened to be a willow forest in front of them, and Dong Xiang and others were also planning to go into the forest to rest and cool down for a while. They would wait until the sun was not so hot before continuing on their way.
They entered the willow forest, and the willow trees seemed to be sick in this hot weather. The branches drooped listlessly and the leaves were curled.
Dong Xiang asked Su Jin'er to be released.
They have given Su Jin'er a makeover and put some blood on Su Jin'er's face to prevent her from being recognized accidentally.
Su Jin'er came out of the carriage and panted exaggeratedly. But her eyes scanned the surroundings to see if there was any chance of escaping.
But it was indeed hot, and her clothes were soaked with sweat.
There was sweat on his face, and his face was now even more stained.
Several vital points on Su Jin'er's body were sealed and she was also shackled. Although Su Jin'er wanted to escape, it was impossible for her to do so on her own.
Dong Xiang handed Su Jin'er a bottle of water.
"Miss Su, we are also acting under orders. Please forgive me for any offence. As long as Miss Su cooperates, we will never harm or embarrass Miss Su."
Su Jin'er smiled and said: "Don't worry, Hall Master Dong, I have done the task of escorting people. As long as you are obedient, everything will be easy. So I will definitely not cause trouble. Please also ask Hall Master Dong to get me a watermelon to eat. A few more."
It’s better to just burn pigeons.”
Dong Xiang said: "I will definitely buy it for Miss Su when I pass by the town again."
At this time, I suddenly heard a man screaming in pain on the road.
"Lord Officer, it's too hot. I'm injured and I'm about to die. Please be kind and go to the forest to rest for a while..."
After a while, two officers escorted a prisoner wearing shackles into the forest.
The prisoner's hair was disheveled and his face was stained and his face could not be seen clearly. He was carrying a roll of mat on his back.
The two officials saw Dong Xiang and others traveling with them and greeted them.
Dong Xiang and the others also greeted the two officials in a perfunctory manner.
The two officers took out a kettle to drink water, and the prisoner said pitifully: "Brothers, please give me some water. Otherwise I will die of thirst on the road before I get to the border. I have to bother the two brothers to bury me."
An officer scolded: "Your crimes are so heinous that I have never seen the crimes you committed in half my life as a sergeant! Just throw you away to feed the wild dogs after you die! I am afraid of the anger of God and the resentment of others when you bury you!"
After hearing what the officer said, everyone was curious about what kind of crime the prisoner had committed. It actually made the officer hate him to the extreme.
Su Jin'er was even more curious. She said to the prisoner: "Tell me what crime you committed. Is it bigger than mine?"
The prisoner asked Su Jin'er: "What crime did the eldest sister commit?"
Su Jin'er said: "What I committed was an unfounded crime that I wanted to inflict. Isn't this a big enough crime? What about you?"
The prisoner sighed and said: "Well, although your crime is serious, compared with mine, how can a firefly compete with the bright moon? Do you know what kind of crime I have committed!"
The prisoner's pretentiousness aroused everyone's curiosity, and everyone cast their eyes on him. The prisoner spoke slowly.
"I stole an egg!"
When Dong Xiang and others heard this, they thought it was a big joke.
One of them even cursed: "Fuck you, you think we are all fools!"
He walked towards the prisoner as if he wanted to teach him a lesson.
The prisoner hurriedly said: "Sir, please calm down and listen to the villain. I went to steal the eggs, but the chickens crowed wildly. I was afraid that people would hear it, so I killed the chickens. But I didn't expect that the master heard it anyway. The man came out first.
, I simply refused to do anything and killed the man. As a result, the woman ran out and cried: My husband, you died unjustly. Just hug my legs and give her man's life, and I will save my life.
How could I pay it back? Even she was beaten to death, and then I stole the egg and ran away..."
The officer escorting the prisoner said: "That's really what happened."
Dong Xiang and others were stunned when they heard that they actually sacrificed two lives for an egg.
Su Jin'er smiled after hearing this, and her eyes were as cute as crescent moons. The story told by the prisoner was exactly the same story she had deceived Yang Zhong, Qin Dingfang and others. Although everyone at the venue knew this ridiculous story at the time
.But Su Jin'er guessed who the prisoner in front of her was most likely to be. Her heart was so excited that it seemed like it was about to jump out of her chest.
The prisoner also smiled at Su Jin'er.
There was a warm color in his eyes.
Su Jin'er said to the prisoner: "Although you are ridiculous and hateful, you are really pitiful. I will give you some water to drink."
Su Jin'er took the water and walked towards the prisoner. The two masters guarding Su Jin'er were about to stop each other, but Dong Xiang waved his hands towards them. Su Jin'er then slowly walked to the prisoner.
The prisoner raised his head and opened his mouth, and Su Jin'er poured water into his mouth.
The prisoner shouted: "Have fun!"
The prisoner finished drinking the water and said to Su Jin'er: "Let's go."
Su Jin'er smiled and said, "Can this half-pot of water repay the favor of giving me the cake?"
The prisoner said seriously: "I already owe you."
Seeing this, Dong Xiang suddenly realized and shouted: "There is a fraud! Kill him!"
Dong Xiang and his men rushed towards the prisoner and Su Jin'er.
At the same time, the prisoner shook his wooden shackles with both arms and made a crackling sound.
The prisoner's left hand held Su Jin'er's waist and Su Jin'er came behind him. The prisoner's right hand also drew the sword from the mat behind him.
The bright and dazzling sword light adds to the scorching heat in this hot weather!
