It was cold and windy outside, but the carbon fire in the car was burning, but it was a warm and spring-like weather. Without outsiders, Lu Fangting was no longer so restrained, and sat closer to Gu Zhirong.

Mingyue wrapped her cloak in a very interesting way and went to sit on the wheel outside.

"How can Mr. Lu have time to come? And he didn't say hello in advance, which scared me a lot. Gu Zhirong glanced at Lu Fangting, his eyebrows were full of anger, but there was no blame in his tone.

"Scaring Sister Rong?" Lu Fangting smiled, "Sister Rong forgot, I once said that I would give my sister a surprise." ”

Gu Zhirong exhaled: "It's really amazing" She glanced at him and finished her words, "Surprise!"

Lu Fangting said gently: "Sister Rong blames the foolish brother for being reckless?"

"Of course" Seeing that Lu Fangting's face darkened instantly, she smiled narrowly, "Of course not." ”

She looked at him seriously and said, "Actually, since I decided to go to Jiangzhou, I have this idea to ask this distant uncle for help." But I'm a girl, and I'm afraid that my uncle will feel weird when I say such a thing. Just when I was in a dilemma, you came, just to solve my embarrassment. ”

Lu Fangting gently grabbed her shoulders and sighed: "Sister Rong, you have done enough for me, in the future, you don't have to worry about these things, and leave them all to Brother Wei, okay?"

Under Lu Fangting's Ying Ying gaze, Gu Zhirong's heart missed a beat for no reason, and his face turned crimson.

Originally, she thought that men in this era did not like women to be too active. Therefore, she thinks that a scholar like Lu Dagongzi will definitely find a good time to come to the Hou Mansion to propose marriage. But the situation in the Hou Mansion made her unable to wait. So when she decided to go to Jiangzhou, she told the distant uncle about it in advance, and let the distant uncle be the master and clarify her family affairs first. In the future, if there is any change in his marriage, this uncle can also come forward as a witness.

What she didn't expect was that her mind was actually guessed by a scholar like Lu Gongzi. I went to Jiangzhou in person to mention this family business. Such a long journey is ruthless and unintentional to oneself. That can't be said.

She was surprised and happy in her heart, and she was glad that she could finally find her soulmate, and for a while, she was speechless. There was silence for a while. It's embarrassing. Suddenly, I heard some noise outside, and the car jolted.

Gu Zhirong was extremely alert, and immediately asked out loud: "Mingyue, what's going on, is something happening outside?"

Outside, there was silence.

Gu Zhirong vaguely felt that something was wrong, and immediately lifted the curtain and went out, as soon as he saw the scene outside. Even she herself was stunned.

In front of her was a group of black-clad men with crows, and a few of them were still surrounding her carriage. All the men in black were masked with black cloths. Merging with the night, the long knife in the only hand shimmered with a cold and cold light.

At this time, they were in an unknown alleyway, cold and empty, this alleyway was mostly not for business, and there was not a trace of light. As the Mid-Autumn Festival approached, the moon was gradually satisfied, and the cold glow that sprinkled it barely made them see the situation in front of them clearly.

The coachman was gone. It is not difficult to deduce that the coachman "escaped". Those who can "escape" are needless to say that they are also accomplices. If it weren't for an accomplice, then there would be no idea of escaping at all, like these men in black, who are murderous by nature, how could they let a person escape from the scene and go back to report the news?

It's just that her mind can't turn around, after all, everyone knows that Jiangzhou is the territory of Baojiantang, and if you want to commit crimes in Jiangzhou, you have to weigh the weight.

However, if these men in black were not locals, but were sent from other places to hunt them down here, it would be a different matter.

If they don't understand the rules, they won't live long, and she feels sorry for them.

Where did those black-clothed people think that Miss Gu Wu at this time still had the heart to feel sorry for them, seeing that she didn't speak for a long time, thinking that she was afraid, a masked fat man led by shouted: "It's Miss Gu Wu in the car?"

Gu Zhirong's expression was calm, and he replied lightly: "You want to find me?"

Behind him, Lu Fangting also followed, standing beside Gu Zhirong, reaching over and holding her hand. She guessed what he meant, presumably trying to give her a little comfort. Among the many pursuers in front of him, Grand Prince Lu had the same calm expression, and his heart was not flustered and his hands were not trembling, which made Gu Zhirong feel a trace of admiration in his heart: he was really not a weak scholar.

He lowered his head slightly, leaned down, and whispered in her ear: "Sister Rong, you retreat to the carriage, I have to deal with it here." ”

Gu Zhirong felt a little apologetic. As soon as they met, these people named her, obviously for her. And he is just an outsider who has nothing to do with this matter, how can she bear to let him suffer?

"Ah Ting, no need, I can handle it. This place is Jiangzhou, and they don't dare to mess around. Gu Zhirong said softly.

Lu Fangting was slightly stunned: "Why? Why don't they dare to mess around in Jiangzhou? I heard that this place in Jiangzhou is a place where bandits are rampant, and we strayed into this alley for no reason, and we have inadvertently caught their way." ”

Gu Zhirong was really hard to explain to him for a while. Can she say that these people have nothing to do with bandits, but are just pretending to be bandits? The most obvious suspicion is that the driver who drove the car was bribed by them, and if it was a bandit, it seemed that there was no reason to buy people in advance, right?

If he explained it to him like this, it would increase his worries, and it would also expose the infighting in the Yuanning Marquis Mansion even more. No matter what, the person in front of her was her future husband, and she didn't want him to know too much about the Yuanning Marquis Mansion, and she grew up in such a place, and her face would feel dull.

At this time, those black-clothed people found that there was still a person in the carriage, and couldn't help but say, "Why is there another man?"

Gu Zhirong quickly calculated in his heart. As soon as she arrived in Jiangzhou, she was courteous to the local Baojian Hall, and she was also equipped with a carriage to take care of her. Therefore, to put it bluntly, all her words and deeds are only under the control of Baojiantang, including this robbery. So, she was sure that as long as she stalled for time, the local Baojiantang would soon know what was going on, and the help would arrive soon.

So her expression remained unchanged, and she asked lightly: "What about my maid ring, what did you do to her?"

The fat man at the head "tsk" and said: "I didn't expect Miss Gu Wu to die, but she still cares about the safety of the maid ring with her, this master-servant relationship is really touching." With that, he casually pointed to the ground next to him.

Gu Zhirong's eyes widened, and he finally found a person lying motionless on the ground, the night was too dark to see really, and he didn't know whether it was life or death.

Gu Zhirong furrowed his brows and said loudly: "How much do you want to let me go? Is 30,000 taels of silver enough? Otherwise, how about 50,000 taels?"

Those people didn't seem to expect that the person they were chasing and killing turned out to be a gold owner, and the price they paid was actually more than the silver of the patron who hired them to kill, and they couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

At this moment, Gu Zhirong suddenly heard the eldest prince Lu next to him shouting angrily: "These thieves also want our silver, don't think about it!" She was taken aback, and was about to stop it, but it was too late, the eldest prince Lu had already unsheathed his sword and stabbed at the gang of black-clothed people! (To be continued......)
