Chapter 69: A Dangerous Path

The killing of the Dongqiu County Order by the victims was suppressed by the Caozhou locality, and no one in Beijing knew about it.

At the beginning of May, the sun was shining.

As they traveled south, they passed a sandy patch of sand and sand with mud left behind from the recent flood. After a few days of sunshine, they cracked and scattered everywhere. From time to time, broken branches and debris lay across the road, and it took some time to clean up, so the team did not move quickly.

"Why are you reading again? I didn't realize you were a bookworm before. On the carriage, Yun Xiang was bored, looking down at the beginning of the month, and couldn't help but sigh.

At the beginning of the month, he smiled when he heard this, and said without looking up: "I'm bored again?" But do you want Qingdai to play leaf play with you again? As he spoke, he turned another page of the book.

Yun Xiang pursed his mouth when he heard this, "It's still not good, I only have to lose when I play with her." "I didn't know that there was a master of playing leaf play at the beginning of the month, and she could lose so badly this way, even if she teamed up with her maid Ying'er, she couldn't play Qingdai." Why don't we play a game? With a flash of his eyes, Yun Xiang grabbed Yueyue's arm and said awkwardly.

Qing Dai on the side laughed out loud when she heard this, "Miss Yun is serious?" Our young lady is much better than me. ”

Yun Xiang's face changed suddenly after hearing this, and he muttered, "Then how to play?" Forget it, I'm going to have some other fun. After glancing at the beginning of the month, seeing that she was still holding the book and looking at it with relish, she didn't look up and say a word, and grabbed the book in her hand with a pout: "What are you reading?" So obsessed? ”

When I started to flip through it, I found that I was reading a hand-copied book at the beginning of the month. "What is this? Poor knowledge of political affairs? ”

Yueyue, who was leaning on the cushion, was not in a hurry to take it back, lazily moved her body to the cushion, and said with a faint smile: "It's nothing, my father wrote it, and it just looks like it's boring." ”

The book in Yun Xiang's hand was brought out from the Xu family's old house when he ran away from marriage at the beginning of the month, and it contained some of Xu's father's thoughts on political affairs. Although she never thought of joining the party struggle, she still remembered the words of the emperor before leaving Beijing. If she could, she would be willing to be a good minister.

As soon as she heard that it was her father at the beginning of the month, Yun Xiang probably guessed that it was her father who was the chief of the mountain, and thought that it was a relic, so he didn't dare to stuff the book back into her hand.

At this time, a small official came to the carriage: "My lord, it's almost noon, are you going to get ready to rest?" ”

"Yes." At the beginning of the month, the team had been gone for a long time, and it was time to find a place to rest and rest, leaning over and lifting the curtain to look out.

At the end of the sand is a highland forest. The wild forest is lush and vibrant, with bright red spots interspersed with verdant greenery, which contrasts strongly with the barrenness of the sandy land.

"What's that?" At the beginning of the month, squint at the forest in the distance.

The little official was slightly stunned, and also looked into the distance, "It should be a wild pomegranate forest." ”

In May, pomegranate blossoms bloom. The flowers bloomed, as red as fireworks. Hanging on the branches of the tree is very gratifying.

Seeing this, Yue Yue couldn't help but smile, "Let's go to that forest and camp there." She said.

The team soon arrived in the woods, made a carriage for a long time, and was a little tired, so several people got out of the carriage and walked around. Qing Dai handed a piece of dry food and water bladder to the moon, "Miss eat." ”

"Yes." At the beginning of the month, he answered, and was about to take over the dry food, when suddenly a small official ran over in a panic, "Big! A fainted woman was found in the woods! ”

His face changed, and he wrinkled his eyebrows at the beginning of the month and said, "Where is it?" Take me to see it! What about Lord Yun? Let her go right away. ”

"Lord Yun has already rushed over." The little official nodded and hurriedly went to the front to lead the way. At the beginning of the month, he soon saw a small circle of people in front of him, and when he saw that the beginning of the month was coming, everyone hurriedly made way for a small road.

Yun Xiang was administering needles to the fainted woman in the middle, and his face was as cold as usual.

Glancing at the woman on the ground, dressed in mud stains, there was a small blood clot on her forehead, "How is she?" The beginning of the month stepped forward and asked,

"My body was very weak, and I passed out without eating or drinking for a long time." Yun Xiang's expression was solemn, and after pulling out the silver needle, he explained to Ying'er on the side: "You go cook some liquid food, and when she wakes up, feed her some water first and then feed her little by little." ”

Ying'er nodded, turned around and hurried.

"It doesn't look like a homeless person in a disaster-stricken place, but it looks like a family member of a large family who has encountered robbers." At the beginning of the month, he frowned and muttered again.

"It's a bit like, let's ask when she's awake."

As she spoke, the woman's fingers suddenly moved, and Yun Xiang was pleasantly surprised: "She's awake!" ”

After a pause, the woman slowly opened her eyes, and as soon as she saw the figure, her eyes immediately widened, her body kept trembling and moving back, and her mouth muttered vaguely the words they didn't understand at the beginning of the month, and she looked extremely frightened.

Seeing this, Yue Yue and Yun Xiang glanced at each other, and Yue Yue was the first to speak: "Girl, don't be afraid." We're not bad guys. She said softly.

The woman didn't seem to listen to what she was saying at the beginning of the month, and as her fear grew, so did her swing and struggle. In the end, Yun Xiang's eyes darkened, and a silver needle was inserted into an acupuncture point on the back of her neck, and the woman suddenly fell down and fainted again.

"It should be stimulated by something, so I can only let her rest first." Yun Xiang sighed lightly and explained.

The woman was then placed in a carriage and placed in the care of Ying'er and Qingdai.

When she woke up again, she was much calmer. After hearing about the identity and whereabouts of the others at the beginning of the month, the woman hurriedly asked to see the beginning of the month.

"The folk girl has seen Lord Yushi, thank you for saving your life." After seeing the moon again, the woman was much calmer.

"Are you feeling better? I heard Qingdai say, are you in a hurry to see me? Moon nodded and motioned for her to get up and speak.

"Yes." The woman's face froze, and she didn't get up, but took a deep breath and said, "My lord, Dongqiu can't go!" ”

Hearing this, both Yue Yue and Yunxiang were stunned, "Why can't you go?" Yun Xiang frowned slightly, confused.

"Because there was a riot in Dongqiuna! Homicide! They killed! As she spoke, the woman's body trembled unconsciously, like a frightened bird.

Homicide?!

At the beginning of the month, he was shocked, "What killing?" Who killed someone? Kill whom? She asked urgently.

"The disaster victims, killed the county order, and there are many people, as soon as they enter the city, they cut down when they see people, and they also burn a lot of shops, a lot of blood" The woman was already shaking like a sieve at this time, "I was so scared that I kept running, kept running"

Yun Xiang's face sank, and he hurriedly stepped forward and pressed the woman's back, and after a few strokes, she gradually eased up again.
