Chapter 184: The Road Is Uneven

The return trip was set on the seventh day of the ninth lunar month, Xia Xue'er said goodbye to the grandmother of the Zhao family and the uncles and aunts, and set off as soon as the time passed, and the old lady wiped her tears and sent her to the city gate, and then reluctantly returned. November 16 is Yu Yingxi's birthday, and Xia Xueer specially promised that she would rush back to attend her birthday banquet before leaving.

Without the salute, twenty guards accompanied the carriage all the way north. When they arrived at the post station, the coachman parked the carriage, and the maid helped Xia Xue'er get out of the car, ate a little meal, and rested for another night, and then went on the road again the next morning. There is plenty of time, and there is no rush along the way, not only can people relax, but even the horses are a lot easier.

At noon, Xia Xue'er was a little sleepy, Cuizhu took a soft pillow for her to lean on, she closed her eyes, and with the regular "tapping" sound of the horse, she relaxed and fell asleep.

Suddenly, the horses in the convoy were frightened for some reason, and they all neighed, and the black horse pulling the cart seemed to go crazy and slammed like headless flies, and the guards hurriedly restrained them, and the carriage staggered, and then stopped. Xia Xue'er was taking a nap, her body shook unsuspectingly, her forehead hit the corner of the small table in the carriage, and her body also hit the carriage, only to feel a burst of soreness. The smooth and full forehead bleeds in an instant! After a few maids stabilized their figures, they saw Xia Xue'er's injury, and they all became anxious. Dongmei was all exclaimed in surprise, Qiu Ju and Cuizhu hurriedly took a handkerchief to cover her to stop the bleeding, and Xianglan had already flown out, yelling at the few people who suddenly rushed to the middle of the road and frightened the horses: "Who is here?!" ”

There are woods on both sides, and these more than ten people with knives suddenly came out of the woods, and a woman in strange clothes running at the front is very eye-catching, as if she is fleeing to save her life, and the other people are not uniformly dressed, and their martial arts are also mediocre, but like a pursuer. The woman was already desperate and fled in all directions, when she saw a carriage, and in a hurry, she ran towards the carriage, looking like she was going to drill into it, and those people also chased after her, completely ignoring what Xianglan asked.

The people on Xia Xue'er's side naturally saw the situation clearly, and they didn't intervene in the disputes of a few people, but the guards surrounded the carriage to ensure that the people in the carriage were not harmed. Xianglan stood on the roof of the carriage with one foot propped up, her hands clasped in front of her chest, and she also looked like she didn't want to meddle in things. In the rivers and lakes, grievances are inseparable, and it is common to fight and kill. Even the Netherworld, which is known for its benevolence and righteousness, does not arbitrarily meddle in other people's grievances, but if it does, it must be the righteous side that is helping and doing things for the heavens.

The woman saw that the pursuit behind her was getting closer and closer, and she could not get close to the carriage, so she could only cry out for help.

"Help! Can anyone help me! I'm still young, I don't want to die! help! help! ”

Inside the carriage, Xia Xue'er's eyes suddenly widened when she heard this, what did she hear just now?!

“help! Help me! Please big brother save my life! ”

English? That's right, all she heard was English! How can anyone speak English? didn't have time to think about it, Xia Xue'er only commanded loudly: "Xianglan, save her life!" ”

Xianglan heard the order, although she didn't know why she did it, she didn't hesitate to fly down from the top of the carriage, grabbed the woman in strange clothes, and threw it directly on the pedal of the carriage.

"Hiss~ It hurts me to death, and I don't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade!" The woman barely sat up with her elbows propped up, her eyebrows and eyes furrowed, her face crumpled together, and her mouth was still babbling and complaining.

As soon as the words fell, Dongmei opened the curtain of the car, glanced at the woman sitting on the pedal rubbing her waist with some complaint, raised her eyebrows, and then bent down to help her up.

Looking the woman up and down, it was almost as simple as a glance that she was not from the court. The woman wore her hair tied back in a braid, a black printed short-sleeved shirt, a pair of jeans, and a pair of sneakers on her feet. This kind of dress is a strange dress in the eyes of the current dynasty, which has never been seen before, but in Xia Xue'er's opinion, it is familiar, her body trembled slightly, something in her heart was about to move, and at the same time, her eyes were a little hot, and she wanted to cry, it was the excitement of seeing her relatives in a foreign country! Cuizhu noticed the strangeness of her young lady, thinking that she was suffering from a wound on her forehead, so she hurriedly got into the car and took a fan, fanning it lightly, hoping to relieve some of her pain.

The woman who was being chased was not in danger for the time being, but the group of people who were chasing were stopped by the guards. The guards of the Marquis of Anguo Mansion didn't plan to move them, but who knew that they didn't know how to rush away from the guards and approach the carriage, and Xianglan intervened, so they couldn't stay out of the matter!

It wasn't until they were restrained that these people seemed to suddenly discover Xia Xue'er and his party, although they were unwilling and angry, but they also felt the skills of these people and knew that the person in front of them was not simple, so they could only endure it and honestly not resist.

Seeing Xia Xue'er get out of the carriage, the man led by him looked up, looked up and down, and then arched his hand at her and asked, "Dare to ask who Your Excellency is, why do you care about me?" ”

"It's just a matter of drawing a knife to help when the road is uneven, and there is no one to target." The corners of his mouth are slightly upturned, but the smile does not reach the bottom of his eyes, and he is a little cold.

"If that's the case, then Your Excellency is helping the wrong person and standing on the wrong team!" The man straightened up as he spoke, since the other party just saw the injustice and drew a knife to help, then he was the one who took advantage of it, and he had something to say.

Xia Xue'er saw that the man looked confident, stood two steps forward, and the guards got out of the way, she paced to the man, and then asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”

"She," the man stretched out his hand and pointed to the woman in fancy dress hiding behind the guard, and continued, "not only stealing our property and selling it, but also teasing us, but in fact she is a despicable and shameless thief. Hand her over quickly! ”

The man was reasonable, his voice was a little louder, Xia Xue'er just frowned, Xianglan made a move, and with just one move, the man fell and gnawed on the mud.

Xia Xue'er stepped forward, the tip of her shoe against the man's forehead, slowly opened her mouth, and said lightly: "How many things she stole from you, report the number, Miss Ben will pay you back according to the number, just a little, I want to decide this girl!" (To be continued.) )
