There was no one in the yard, so she hurried into the hall, praying constantly in her heart, hoping that Xiao Yun hadn't left yet, otherwise she would definitely be caught today!
After searching around, not only could she not find Xiao Yun, she couldn't even find a young eunuch. Everyone here was gone. She couldn't help crying, she couldn't really be so unlucky, could she?
I ran around in pain, but Xiao Yun took the first step. What should I do now?
She remembered running around in circles, and finally her eyes fell on those large boxes in the yard...
After a cup of tea, several strong eunuchs walked in. They sealed the boxes with notes, then moved them out of Deyang Palace, put them on carriages, and transported them all the way out of the palace.
The people responsible for escorting the luggage were four eunuchs. After leaving the palace, the carriage hauling the luggage was handed over to five men from the Snow Country. They were all palace guards from the Snow Country. Because they were born in the north, they were strong.
They are tall and strong, equipped with scimitars and daggers on their waists. In addition, they have a fierce look, which makes them difficult to mess with at first sight.
After the four eunuchs handed over the carriage to the people from Xueyu, they went back to the palace to deliver their errands.
These five snowy men did not rest in the city. After taking over the carriage, they went straight to the city gate. The guards responsible for guarding the city gate saw that they were from the snowy region and did not dare to provoke them. They also saw that there were stickers on the suitcases.
The seal in the palace was not opened for inspection, and he was released directly with a wave of his hand.
The carriage left Wushuang City and ran very fast on the official road. They planned to catch up with the large team in front of them as soon as possible.
They had good physical strength and did not rest in the middle of the journey. They ran all the way until dark, and they just found an inn to rest on the roadside. The carriage with the suitcases was led to the backyard by the innkeeper, who threw a bundle of hay and put it in the stable.
Then he turned and left.
At this time, a large wooden box in the carriage moved, a thin hairpin protruded from the gap in the box, broke the seal, and the box lid was pushed open from the inside.
Xiao Lezi, who had been holding it in for a long time, finally came to light again. She climbed out carefully, raised the car curtain and looked around. No one was found, so she immediately jumped out of the car and ran out of the backyard quickly.
Unexpectedly, she happened to bump into the innkeeper who appeared out of nowhere, and the two of them had a fight. She felt guilty and ran away without saying a word!
The innkeeper reacted quickly. He glanced at the backyard and found that the curtain of the carriage containing the suitcase was still shaking. He quickly ran over and opened the curtain. He saw that the seal of a wooden box was broken inside, and then opened the box.
At first glance, it was empty inside!
Could it be that the old woman just now was a thief?!
This carriage belongs to the five snowy men. If they find out that the things have been stolen, they will definitely cause trouble at the inn. If they cause trouble, they will inevitably be scolded again. Moreover, the five snowy men look like
He is so fierce and fierce, and he must be very powerful in a fight.
After thinking about it in his mind, the innkeeper quickly ran to the guest room on the second floor, called out the five snowy men, and said: "Your box has been stolen, and the man just ran away. You hurry up and chase him, maybe you can still chase him."
Gotta come back!”
Hearing this, the five snowy men were immediately furious, leaving two of them guarding the inn. The other three immediately ran out of the inn, borrowed three temporary horses, and chased in the direction pointed by the man.
They soon found the thief near a small forest.
Originally, Xiao Lezi had successfully escaped, but she never thought that they would catch up with her, and they were all riding horses. She only had two small legs, so there was no way she could outrun them!
She thought about how to surrender directly. A good girl would not suffer the immediate loss and save her life first. But when she saw the three snowy men pulling out the scimitars on their waists, she immediately gave in. They looked at
She didn't look like she was going to let her live!
Little Lezi dared to stay any longer and ran as fast as she could. The grove was dark, full of trees, and there were many vines and shrubs on the ground. She tripped and fell several times, and her palms and knees were scraped.
It's so hot that it hurts!
But the three snowy men were still chasing her, so she could only grit her teeth and endure the severe pain and continue running forward.
The road in the woods was very difficult. The hooves of the horses ridden by the three snowy men were punctured by the branches on the ground. The horses were in too much pain and refused to continue running. There was no other way, so the three of them had to get off their horses.
, continued to chase the thief on foot.
They chased him so closely that Xiao Lezi ran out of breath, and the cold air rushed into his lungs, which made him feel unbearable pain.
In a panic, she tripped over a vine under her feet, and her whole body fell forward suddenly!
This time she didn't fall to the ground, but jumped into the air. Only then did she realize that this was actually a cliff!
Is this a dying rhythm?
The wind blew past her ears. She didn't know how high the cliff was. Now she could only see the bustling stars in the sky. She thought that she had finally escaped from the palace, but she was killed by a tree vine. She felt so wronged.
I want to cry!
Inside the palace, two guards knelt in the Jinhua Palace, lowering their heads and admitting their mistake: "It was my subordinate who did something wrong! Please punish me!"
Xiao Feng looked at them expressionlessly and asked in a deep voice: "You saw two people leaving Mei Qing Hall, but they lost one of them. Did you see clearly what that person looked like?"
One of the guards thought for a moment and answered seriously: "She is a nun, her hair is white, her body is stooped, and she is short in stature. She was too far away, so the subordinates couldn't see her appearance clearly. She seems to be about her age.
Pretty big."
Xiao Feng said with a gloomy face: "Go and check to see if there really is such a nun in the palace. As for the two of you, each of you will be hit with thirty big boards and fined half a year's salary!"
The two guards quickly kowtowed and thanked him.
After they left, Eunuch Xia asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, what about Mei Qingdian?"
"Continue to stare, and at the same time check the identity and background of Princess Su. Don't let go of any clues. As for the palace maid named Pearl, she was put in prison and tortured severely. I don't believe it or not.
Come up with something!" Xiao Feng paused and glanced at the coffin next to him. Next to the coffin, four imperial doctors were doing tests around the burnt female corpse.
Eunuch Xia withdrew and arranged all His Majesty's orders.
Xiao Feng put his hands behind his back and stared gloomily at the tablet in front of the coffin. There was a row of words written on it...the spiritual tablet of his beloved concubine Qu.
My dear concubine, are you playing cat and mouse with me again?
When Xiao Lezi woke up, he looked at the beams above his head and his mind went blank.
She tried to recall what happened before she fell into coma. She only remembered that after falling off the cliff, she fell into the water. In a panic, she grabbed a piece of driftwood. She relied on the driftwood to avoid sinking into the water and floated down the river.
"Are you awake?" A fourteen-year-old boy suddenly poked his head into Xiao Lezi's sight. He was wearing a coarse shorts, thick eyebrows and big eyes, with a dark face full of surprise and joy, "You have been unconscious for three days.
For two days and two nights, my father said that if you still don’t wake up, I will have no choice but to dig a hole and bury you!”
Xiao Lezi blinked hard and stared at the boy blankly. After thinking for a long time, she finally remembered that she floated along the river to the shore and it was this boy who saved her...
"Don't move yet, I'm going to call Dad to help you take a look!" The young man didn't care about Xiao Lezi's silence, he was still full of joy and ran out of the house.
This is a simple thatched house. There is nothing in the house except the kang where Xiao Lezi is lying. The windows are locked from the inside, just for fear that the cold wind will blow in and freeze the patients in the house.
But the wooden door was still open, and the careless boy forgot to close it when he left. It was the golden autumn of August, and the cool breeze poured into the house, making the wooden door creak.
Xiao Lezi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She is really lucky and has a great destiny. She didn't die even in this way. It seems that she is really a tough-minded person!
Following a rush of footsteps, an old man and a young man walked into the hut and hurried to the edge of the kang.
The young man's face turned red as he ran, and his dark eyes shone brighter: "Dad, look how she is doing!"
The person called "Daddy" is a man in his thirties, with bright eyebrows and fair complexion. His black hair is tied into a bun on the top of his head, with an inconspicuous white jade hairpin inserted. If you take a closer look,
There is still a small piece missing from the top of the hairpin. She is wearing a navy blue coarse cloth gown and has a slightly thin figure. The fingers that are stretched out to feel Xiao Lezi's pulse are also slender and slender. One look at her shows that she is not someone who often does menial work.
He thought for a while, then checked the wound on Xiao Lezi's body again, frowning slightly: "The wound is a little cracked, but fortunately there is no pus. Ammu, you go and prepare bandages, wound medicine, and warm water first. I want
Help her change her dressing."
"Um!"
After Amu left, the man in green stood beside the kang and said with a slight smile: "My surname is Han. People here call me Mr. Han. Since Amu has picked you up, you can rest assured to recover here. What can I do?"
Let’s talk after everyone is healed.”
Xiao Lezi smiled gratefully: "Thank you, my name is Qu Le, you can call me Xiao Le or Le Le."
Now that she has left the palace, the name Xiaolezi no longer needs to be used, and she can finally use her real name.
Amu brought the boiled soup and drank a bowl of bitter medicine. Qule fell asleep quickly. Mr. Han had other things to do, so he left Amu to take care of her. After he left, Amu sat alone.
Sitting on the stool beside the kang, he stared at Qu Le in a daze while he was sleeping.
Half a month later, Qule's injury finally recovered and he was able to go to the ground like a normal person.
She has been lying in bed these days and wasted a lot of food. In order to repay the Han family's kind help, Xiao Lezi took the initiative to share part of the housework.
She squatted by the river and washed all the clothes in the wooden basin. Qule wiped the sweat from her forehead, put down her rolled-up sleeves, stood up with the wooden basin, and turned around just in time to see Amu running over from a distance.
.
Qu Le couldn't help but asked curiously: "What are you doing here? Didn't you and your mother go to the fields to harvest rice?"
"After harvesting the rice, I saw that you haven't come back yet. My mother asked me to come out to look for you." He glanced at the tub and rolled his eyes. "I will carry this for you. You can help me with my homework later."
Before Qu Le could react, he grabbed the wooden basin and strode back. Qu Le quickly followed, looked A Mu up and down, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Aren't you afraid of me and Han?"
