The carriage of the Qing'an Palace's palace didn't follow up as it should, since Zhao Ruoxin was unwilling to follow him back to the Qing'an Palace, the little guy who drove the car was also so happy, and he muttered in his heart: "Made, I don't know what the prince thinks, he is so good to a pariah who has been dismissed, and he has been serving this madman these days, but he has tired us a lot."
The two carriages went to the east of the city, and the carriages of Zhao Ruoxin and Xiaocui went to the west of the city, and ran out for more than a hundred miles in one go.
The coachman looked at the healthy horse that couldn't move his legs in distress, tilted his head to look at the sunset that had almost sunken into the horizon, and finally found a reason to rest: "Big shopkeeper, we have run out of more than a hundred miles, in front of which is Guanshan Town, which is under the rule of Qiongzhou, I am afraid that today I can only rest and rectify somewhere, the sky is already dark, these places are not as peaceful as the capital"
Xiaocui and Zhao Ruoxin were still stretching their necks to look around, galloping all the way, the sturdy horse did not catch up with the two legs of the upstream Xiaojiang at all, seeing that it was the time to enter the curtain, Zhao Ruoxin suddenly scolded: "Damn You Xiaojiang, you can still run faster and don't fight, you are a good hand at running."
Xiao Cui also looked helpless, not only the horse was about to run to death. They had a bumpy road, and their bodies were obviously a little unbearable.
Xiaocui sighed, didn't ask Zhao Ruoxin's opinion, and said helplessly: "Since that's the case, let's find a place to live in front first."
"Deler"
The coachman happily agreed, and the carriage slowed down suddenly.
It seems that she can't catch up with Xiao Jiang no matter what, and if you want You Xiaojiang to sneak into the palace to steal the carrier pigeon to send the letter, she subconsciously keeps visiting the gene chip in Wèn's brain, but there is still no good way to get out.
At this time, Zhao Ruoxin was extremely nostalgic for the traffic that crossed the previous era. If there is also high-speed rail here. will be a piece of how pleasant it is + dǐng + diǎn + small + say, .◆.★os_ (); things.
The outline of Guanshan Town has clearly appeared in the hazy night, with a bit of tranquility and peace, but it also reveals a bit of weirdness, this is obviously the time of rice diǎn. But not a single wisp of smoke rose from the cooking.
The horses walked step by step. It looks like it won't be long before you can get into town.
Zhao Ruoxin, who had been quiet for a long time, suddenly frowned and asked, "Xiaocui." You have been in the capital for so long, does Chujiazhai have a charcoal stove that produces honeycomb coal and other kinds in the capital? ”
Yes, a town without cooking smoke. It's not normal to be quiet, especially in times like this, and there are only two things that can be explained. Either there is no one left in this town, or an enemy has infiltrated and taken control of the entire town.
These two aspects, whether it is diǎn, are an incredible thing.
Of course, there is a third possibility, that is, Zhao Ruoxin once taught the people of Chujiazhai how to use coal when she was in Qiushuang County, if Chujiazhai has sold honeycomb coal, a very convenient thing, to the streets and alleys this year, then this town without cooking smoke is reasonable.
Of course, it is not only the Chujiazhai Association that can use charcoal to make honeycomb coal, but also the mountain tribes of Chuyang and the three thousand disciples of Wuzhen, but Zhao Ruoxin's first thought is not them, if nothing else, her industry in Wuzhen has not yet developed to the capital.
Xiaocui didn't know why Zhao Ruoxin suddenly asked this question, so she shook her head blankly and said: "No, Chujiazhai is now mainly engaged in the three industries of banks, restaurants, and building buildings, and we didn't even take the errand that the imperial court asked us to build a dam."
Of course, the dam will not be built by the people of Chujiazhai, as early as Zhao Ruoxin saw the dam of the tofu scum project on the bank of the Darong River, she knew that if such a thing came from the hands of Chu Jiazhai, Zhao Ruoxin would definitely directly arrest Chu Fengniang and beat him up, and it would not be long before countless people died in the hands of this damn dam.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ruoxin's heart sank again, but unfortunately, it was not that she Zhao Ruoxin didn't want to save people, but Li Hongyi, who held the power in the world, didn't give her this opportunity.
The imperial court seems to need more than a disliked, alarmist rat poop like her.
Puff puff
A large flock of birds flew in the small woods in front of them, and the sound of popping once again pulled Zhao Ruoxin's thoughts back to reality.
"Not good! Stop, can't go any further"
Zhao Ruoxin subconsciously shouted, a cheek that had been stained with tears looked a little nondescript, but it was all vigilant!
Yes, as if on the vigilance of the great enemy!
Xiao Cui looked at her blankly.
The driver on the wheel was also unclear, so he pulled the reins and turned his head to look: "Childe, what's wrong?" Go downhill and through the woods in front of you and you'll be in town."
"U-turn, run, run as fast as you can"
Zhao Ruoxin was like a great enemy, and then hurriedly commanded, and then said: "The tired birds returning to the nest are frightened, this kind of thing happened in the evening, and it is on the official road, which can only explain one problem, there is an ambush in the woods in front."
Xiao Cui also became nervous, and stuck out her head to take a closer look.
The coachman who has been walking the carriage for a long time naturally knows this truth, although he has turned the carriage in a different direction according to his words, but he is still a little distressed when he sees the horse who is too tired to do it.
He was a little disappreciative and persuaded: "Gongzi is too worried, this place is only a hundred miles away from the capital, even if it is a small roadblock robbery, I don't dare to be too arrogant."
Before the coachman could say his words, a thin man of about forty years old appeared in the grove.
When this man saw the carriage in front of him, he chased desperately, waving his hands and shouting: "Help, help, the carriage in front, save the life of the little old man, the little old man will give you money"
Everyone was shocked, and when they looked back, they were even more frightened into a cold sweat.
I saw at least a dozen or so black-clothed people swishing out of the woods in an instant, all of them were vigorous and running like lightning, but in the blink of an eye, the person who shouted for help was already silent.
Immediately afterwards, I heard a very deep voice coming from behind the carriage: "The people in front, since they are here, let them all stay."
The coachman was frightened, and had no time to feel sorry for the tired horse, and the whip was thrown the horse's back, and a crisp sound sounded sound.
But they are fast, and the enemy is faster!
Listening to a few swishing sounds of breaking the air from behind, Zhao Ruoxin and Xiaocui only felt that the preface was dark, and they were no longer conscious.
Looking at it again, under the dim night, the official road is still the same, the tired bird returns to the nest, the old horse knows the way, and an empty carriage is heading straight into the city with the night
The night finally fell~~~
(Today's first change, there is still a change in the evening, the last day of the double monthly pass, Dao Gu is cheeky and begging for a monthly pass not to slap her face~~~)
