"Ahh......h

A few frightened screams rang out suddenly, and the man squinted at the flower path and turned out a few girls dressed as maids, and in vain saw that Dashuang was attacked and fell to the ground softly, and there was a group of bandits in the courtyard who were masked with sharp weapons and black scarves.

Hua Lianyue's heart finally let go, although these maids were pampered, they couldn't wait to hide underground when they saw the bright blades. However, they ran in shouting all the way, for fear that they would alarm the distinguished guests and guards of the princess's mansion.

The county lord of Huining finally got up, pulled the corner of Hua Lianyue's clothes, and scolded the man with a crying voice: "You bold bandits, you actually ran to the princess's mansion to spread wild, and you are not afraid that the court will investigate and punish your nine clans." ”

"Nine clans?" The man seemed to have heard something funny, and actually laughed, and said, "If the imperial court can help me punish the nine clans, I am grateful." ”

The county lord of Huining looked stunned, Hua Lianyue knew that these people were doing the business of licking blood on the knife, and the whole family was not hungry when one person was full, and any family affection was a floating cloud in the sky. The county lord of Huining threatened them with this, which was like taking off his pants and farting - an extra move.

However, the man seemed to be reminded, and knew that if he delayed any longer, he would really not be able to please when a large number of guards from the princess's mansion arrived. So he grabbed Hua Lianyue with one hand and the county lord of Huining with the other, and shouted to the surrounding brothers in a low voice: "The fat sheep has arrived, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time, retreat quickly!"

So the bandits retreated like a tide before the guards arrived. Only sharp green bamboo arrows were left all over the ground, Dashuang who was knocked unconscious, and a few bloody corpses.

The capital is prosperous and rich, and the land is vast and crowded. As long as these bandits hide their weapons, take off their masks and black scarves, and blend in with the people. Trying to find it again is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Soon after, an ordinary green cloth carriage sped through the narrow alley. Naturally, in the carriage were Hua Lianyue and Huining County Lord, who were gagged and tied hands. The man in black also took off his face towel and changed his clothes.

He was in his early thirties, with dark skin, a slightly hooked nose, and a short beard under his chin. At this moment, he was wearing a royal blue brocade coat with auspicious cloud patterns, and a jade belt was tied around his waist, which looked dignified, but his narrow eyes were full of evil spirit.

The moment Hua Lianyue saw his true face, her heart sank. Does this mean that he is already a dead man in his eyes, and it is not worth covering up at all?

She looked down at the county lord of Huining, who was half-lying on her lap, arching her body like a shrimp, crying silently, and sighed in her heart. If she is caught alone, she can still act at the opportunity and think of escaping. Now that there is another delicate county lord who is in the way, she only feels that the future is dark, and the chance of escape is a little slim.

I don't know how long it has passed, but I feel that the carriage turns left and right and seems to have walked a lot of alleys. Hua Lianyue couldn't move because her hands were tied, but she still had a Huining Huining County Lord on her body, and she had already suffered from backache and leg pain.

The man on the other side sat motionless, also with his waist straight. Hua Lianyue couldn't help but think happily, looking at the posture, he was afraid that it would be more uncomfortable than himself, so he was a little happier in his heart.

Finally, the carriage stopped, and I heard someone outside flattering: "It's Master Gao who is back!"

The man glanced at Hua Lianyue, who was obviously uplifted, and stretched his neck to look out of the gap in the car curtain. Feeling the warning in his eyes, Hua Lianyue pursed her lips disdainfully, and had to retract her neck in a witty manner.

Only then did the man retract his eyes, stretched out his calloused fingers, lifted the corner of the curtain, and said lazily outside: "Yes, I'm back." ”

Hua Lianyue thought to herself: It turns out that this man's surname is Gao, but most of it is made up. Nine times out of ten, he is a wanted criminal, how dare he tell his real name.

Someone outside asked enthusiastically: "Master Gao has caught the two fugitive slaves in the house?"

Hua Lianyue almost jumped up when she heard this, she had already made arrangements to catch the fugitive slave. I'm afraid that when I get out of the carriage, even if someone sees me tied up, they will only think that they are fugitive slaves in the mouth of this master.

It must be known that the slave who signed the deed of sale is equivalent to the private property of the master, which is like a cow and a horse, and even if the master kills him, the government will not care.

It's no wonder that when he tied them up before, Master Gao casually grabbed the buns on their heads and tore up their gorgeous coats. In addition, he rolled in the carriage in embarrassment, and he was already messy and dirty, and he couldn't see the previous wealth and grace at all.

Even if she wasn't gagged at the moment, she stood up and shouted that she was Mrs. Xianwang and the other was the county lord of Huining, I'm afraid no one would believe it!

Gao Ye exchanged a few more words with the people outside, and when he turned around, he saw that Hua Lianyue was very quiet, and she didn't want to take the opportunity to ask for help, and a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Lowering the curtain, the carriage moved forward slowly, but the speed was very slow, and Hua Lianyue guessed that it should have come to the den where the bandits were hiding. It's just that this den shouldn't be in a remote place, so he needs to make up a reason to coax those people outside.

Da hidden in the city, I didn't expect that although this guy is a water bandit who kills people and oversells goods, he is quite smart, and he is not a person who blindly fights ruthlessly.

The carriage stopped again, and Master Gao stood up neatly, lifted the curtain and walked out. After a while, two more bandits wearing ordinary green cloth cotton robes came up, carried Hua Lianyue and the county lord of Huining, who could not move, on their shoulders like sacks, and got out of the carriage.

The posture of the upside-down onion was extremely uncomfortable, as if the blood from all over the body was pouring into the head. However, Hua Liyue still tried to raise her head, wanting to see more of the situation in front of her.

It is a very clean and tidy courtyard, surrounded by a high blue brick wall, and a few yellowed vines are hanging on the wall. There was a low woodhouse in the corner, and there were even a few hens with their necks curled, squatting on a pile of haystacks next to the woodshed. On the other side is a stable, where two red horses are leisurely munching on the dead grass in the trough.

Even if Hua Lianyue took the opportunity to see the small courtyard clearly, she still had no clue in her heart. Because such a small courtyard of a well-off family is really very common, and it can be seen everywhere in the capital.

Probably because Hua Lianyue couldn't see anything, Gao Ye didn't go out of his way to blindfold them.

Soon, the two were thrown into an empty room with a sealed window. A faint light poured in through the gaps, and you could faintly see the dust floating in the air. There was silence all around, and in the cold winter day, the shadow of death hung firmly over the hearts of the two of them.

Hua Lianyue desperately pushed out the handkerchief in her mouth with the tip of her tongue, and after a long sigh of relief, she felt that her breathing was much easier. was thinking about how to get out, but saw the county lord of Huining on the side looking at him with blank eyes.

The two of them are now grasshoppers on a vine, and Hua Lianyue is not easy to ignore. So he moved his body and stepped forward, bit the corner of the handkerchief on the lips of the county lord of Huining with his teeth, and pulled it back hard. The foreign object blocked in his mouth was taken away, and the county lord of Huining also gasped for breath.

When she felt that her breath was free, she whispered, "Thank you!"

Hua Lianyue smiled bitterly: "They are coming for me, you have been implicated for no reason, where do I dare to be your thank you." ”

The county lord of Huining also fell silent, and after half a sound, he said timidly: "You say, will we die?"

Hua Lianyue shrugged her shoulders and said, "Probably, they showed their true faces in front of us without any scruples, and they shouldn't have thought of letting us go back." ”

"What should I do then?" Lord Huining's body trembled violently, and he said almost with a cry: "I don't want to die here, can't we beg him to spare his life?" After saying a word, her tears were like pearls with broken threads, falling down in a flutter.

Hua Lianyue had a headache, although she was also afraid of death, but she was even more afraid of being annoyed to death by such a weak, endless cry. After thinking about it, she comforted in a low voice: "These people are here for the silver, as long as the money does not arrive, they will not take our lives for a while." Maybe we can find an opportunity to escape during this time. ”

Although her voice was very small, it all fell into the ears of the county lord of Huining. I have to say that these words brought hope to the desperate Lord Huining. She didn't cry anymore, she just stared at her watery eyes, looked at Hua Lianyue with hope, and whispered pitifully: "Then you think quickly, as long as you can go out, I will definitely reward you heavily!"

Hua Lianyue snorted lightly and didn't speak, but slowly closed her eyes. Her fingers behind her back were secretly caressing the small dagger in her sleeve pocket, her only and last hope. You can't take it out until it's necessary.

After thinking for a long time, she sighed slightly and removed her fingers.

Suddenly, the county lord of Huining, who was huddled in the corner, said timidly: "Madame, but you are angry? ”

Hua Lianyue was stunned for a moment, she was thinking about how to get out wholeheartedly, and she didn't have the heart to deal with the county lord of Huining at all. Besides, as long as she thought that the county lord of Huining was surnamed Xie, she subconsciously rejected it, so she didn't put what she said into her mind at all.

But how can such words be easy to say, Hua Lianyue had to comfort indiscriminately: "It's okay, it's okay!" Hua Lianyue didn't want to say more to her, how could she not see it with the wisdom of the county lord of Huining. She obediently closed her mouth, no longer disturbing Hua Liyue's contemplation.

Time passed quickly, less and less light penetrated through the cracks, and the temperature in the room became colder and colder. When it gets dark, the room is like a snow cave, with a biting chill.

Although she couldn't see anything clearly, Hua Lianyue keenly felt that the body of the county lord of Huining, who was shrinking in the corner, was constantly trembling slightly, and her teeth were tapping lightly uncontrollably, as if she was frozen hard.

Hua Lianyue finally spoke up, breaking the deathly silence in the room: "Maybe stand up, if you can, get up and move, otherwise you will freeze to death here, but it will be a little embarrassing." ”

As she spoke, she was already propping her back against the wall and slowly stood up. Begin to walk slowly around the room, moving your cold and stiff legs.

Hearing her words, Lord Huining's body moved, and he seemed to want to stand up. It's just that she tried a few times, but in the end she couldn't succeed because she was too delicate. She cried and said, "What should I do, my feet are numb from the cold and I can't get up!"

"If you can't get up, you have to get up, unless you want to be frozen to death!" Although Hua Liyue's words were ruthless, they were stating a fact. They could not have expected the bandits to suddenly show kindness, for fear that they would freeze and bring in a brazier that was burning brightly.

The long winter nights are much cooler than during the day, and although there is no snow for the time being, the air is foggy and the water is turned into ice. If they don't hurry up and find a way to warm themselves, they may not be able to survive the rising sun tomorrow.

The county lord of Huining was stimulated by her words, struggled for a while, and finally stood up little by little by holding on to the wall. She herself didn't seem to believe it, and whispered with excitement: "I, I'm standing up!"

"That's good!" Hua Lianyue breathed a sigh of relief and said busily: "Hurry up and try to move as much as possible in the house, as long as we don't stop, we won't freeze to death." ”

Hua Lianyue also felt cold, not only cold, but also hungry, the dim sum porridge and water she ate in the palace this morning had long been gone, and there was no grain of rice in the princess's mansion, and at this moment her chest was already close to her back.

Although her body was suffering from hunger and cold, her mind still had to stay awake. The two of them walked quietly back and forth in this small room, and suddenly heard the sound of iron chains sliding outside. The county lord of Huining happened to have his back to the gate, and when he heard the sound, his body trembled, and he jumped back like a frightened rabbit.

Hua Lianyue also stared out with wide eyes, and by the faint moonlight, she could faintly see that it was a man wearing a green cloth cotton jacket and a sheepskin felt hat, quietly opening the door and walking in.

The man did not light the lamp, nor did he speak, and even closed the door with his backhand after entering the house.

In the darkness, Hua Lianyue's heart sank suddenly!

The man took advantage of the moonlight outside, probably saw their location clearly, and said with a cruel smile: "Baby, but it's freezing, grandpa is here to warm your ......" and touched it while stretching out his hand.

His body still had a strong smell of alcohol and a body odor that had not been bathed for a long time, Hua Lianyue was disgusted when she smelled it, she held her breath and concentrated, and her already active body deftly hid to the side. At the same time, he regretted that in order to hide the dagger, he did not untie the rope that bound his hands beforehand. Now in addition to the feet can still be used, almost become a lamb to the slaughter, no resistance at all.

The man also heard the sound of Suo Suo walking around the room, but now the door was locked, and the two beauties had their hands tied again, so they could only rub them. Even if he is dying now, in his opinion, it is a little more interesting.

The man drank a lot of wine, and at this moment it was the time when he was full of lust and had nowhere to vent his anger. Thinking about the daytime, the clouds and temples in the princess's mansion are the noble status that he can only look up to in his life, but tonight he can only tremble and moan under him.

Just thinking about it, the man felt that the blood in his whole body was surging down, and he couldn't wait to open his arms and pounce on him like an eagle catching a chicken. happened to grab a piece of slippery clothes, and pulled it hard, and suddenly there was a sound of silk tearing, accompanied by a delicate exclamation from the woman.

The man rubbed the corner of the shirt in his hand vigorously, and put it on the tip of his nose to sniff deeply, the faint smell of fat powder made his desire rise more and more.

"It's so fragrant, beauty, don't hide, I will take good care of your ......" The man hid the corner of his fragrant clothes in his arms, smiled lewdly, and pounced on the faintly swaying panicked black shadow again.
