Chapter 234: The Horses Are Frightened

On the vast land, a line of chariots and horses were hurrying forward, and the sunset on the horizon was about to sink in the west at this time, and the fiery clouds came up, dyeing most of the sky into a fiery red color. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Master, the sunset here is beautiful, do you want to see it too?" Cui Hong was outside the sedan chair and said happily.

Hearing her words, Su Qiaotong casually opened the sedan curtain and looked at the clouds in the sky. The colors of the whole sky are indeed magnificent and colorful, and they are beautiful. However, between Su Qiaotong's eyebrows, there was still a depressed and sad face. After just one glance, she lowered the sedan curtain and spit out a sentence: "It's just a fire burning clouds, what's so beautiful." ”

Cuihong heard this, and understood that her master was in a bad mood at this time, so she quickly shut up, and also signaled the few little eunuchs who were laughing in front of her to stop laughing.

A group of people marched in silence.

The sky soon darkened, but there was still some distance from the palace.

Cui Hong was a little anxious, ran to the front of the team, and said to the little eunuch who was driving the car: "Speed up, you have to rush back to the palace before dark." ”

"Miss Cerahuang, don't worry, you will be able to arrive before dark." The little eunuch said confidently. Before leaving, they had calculated the distance, and it was impossible for Su Jieyu to hurry in the dark, in that case, it would be too dangerous.

If Su Jieyu has a little mistake, then they don't want the lives of these subordinates.

The route back to the palace was not the same as the route when they came, they did not take the deserted path, but tried to pick the official road and take the main road. There are no shortcuts to the path, so it will take a little more time.

Suddenly, a sharp whistle sounded in the sky.

After the whistle of "...... Woo", it was not long before another sharp and loud whistle sounded.

The horse, which had been unhurried, was obviously a little panicked after hearing the whistle, and no longer marched along the road ahead, but wanted to turn to the side of the road.

"Oops...... Come back! Come back! What are you doing, you brute? Want to be whipped, don't you? The little eunuch who was driving the chariot grabbed the reins with all his might, trying to pull the horse back to the right path.

"What's wrong?" Cui Hong was a little startled when she saw the horse, and hurriedly ran to the front to see what was wrong.

"This ...... The beast seemed frightened. The little eunuch who was driving the chariot pulled the reins hard, but the horse kept trying to run to the side, and was not at all obedient.

"Was that whistle just now? Do you hear me? Cui Hong also sensed something abnormal, and asked everyone in a little panic.

"It seems to be a whistle...... everyone also sensed the abnormality, and their hearts couldn't help but start panicking.

"Cuihong, what's wrong?" Su Qiaotong, who was on the sedan chair, also clearly felt the abnormality of the team, and hurriedly opened the sedan curtain and asked Cuihong.

"Master...... Our horse seemed to be frightened, and it did not want to go up the avenue, but ran on the side road. Cui Hong hurriedly ran back and said to Su Qiaotong.

Su Qiaotong looked up at the sky, at this time, the fire clouds had all receded, there were only heavy navy blue clouds in the sky, and the sun had already sunk, and in less than half an hour, the entire sky would be dark. If you can't get back to the palace before dark, you'll be in trouble. Traveling in the dark, who knows what will happen.

"Don't we have extra horses? Try another horse and make sure to get back to the palace before dark. Su Qiaotong commanded with a serious face.

"Yes!" Cui Hong hurriedly ran to the front of the team and explained Su Qiaotong's words to the little eunuchs as they were.

"Huh? Changing horses at this time? The little eunuch who was driving the car looked a little embarrassed when he heard such an order.

"What's wrong? Is there anything wrong? Cui Hong hurriedly asked. At this time, the sky is getting darker and darker, and if they don't change the horses quickly, when the sky gets dark, they will be on this avenue where there is no village in front of the village and no shop in the back, in case they encounter bandits and bandits or something, it will be bad.

"Miss Cuihong, I can't hide it. The horse I am using now is the most docile and the fastest. If you change to another horse, under the interference of the whistle just now, I am afraid that it will be frightened and run away a long time ago, where will the reaction be so small as this one? In addition, the foot travel is slow, and if you change to something else, I am afraid that you will not be able to return to the palace before dark. The little eunuch had a bitter face, and if he couldn't go back when the time came, Su Jieyu was still alone.

"Can this one be appeased now?" Cuihong heard him say this, and also realized the seriousness of the problem, it seems that all their hopes now are in the horse in front of them. I hope that its emotions can be calmed down quickly and continue to hurry.

"I'll try ......"

As soon as the little eunuch finished speaking, a whistle sounded around him again, but this time, the whistle was no longer the same as just now, but only one by one. This time, the whistles came and went, as if coming from all directions.

This time, not only the horses on the chariots were frightened, but also the rest of the camels and the horses of the camel cargo were also frightened, and they scattered and fled, some kept running in front of the road, some ran along the side road, and some simply kept turning in circles.

"It's over, the horses are frightened...... "The little eunuch who was driving the car was so anxious that he wanted to pull the frightened horses, but his strength was too small to control any of them.

"Master...... Master...... Jumping out of the car, the horses were frightened. Seeing the frightened horse pulling the sedan chariot to the side road, Cui Hong hurriedly shouted.

Su Qiaotong lifted the sedan curtain and saw that the horse was pulling herself to the side road, and Cui Hong was shouting from behind, letting herself jump out of the car, and she didn't know what to do for a while.

At this time, the speed of the car was too fast, she didn't dare to jump directly, maybe after jumping, she would break her arms and legs or something. However, if he did not jump out of the car, the frightened horse did not know where it would take him.

"Oops! What can I do? The master didn't dare to jump out of the car......" Cui Hong shouted anxiously behind her.

Several little eunuchs were also dumbfounded at this time, where had they seen this battle, and they didn't know what to do for a while, so they could only be stunned on the spot.

Su Qiaotong sat in the car, her hands tightly grasped the armrests on both sides, her lips were pursed, she was hesitating whether to jump or not.

Suddenly, a team of people rushed out from the side road, they rode horses and whipped up, as if they were watching a good show, looking at Su Qiaotong's carriage, which was heading in their direction.

"Haha! Come here! Come here! The man in the lead, wearing a hat with white fox felt fur, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a dark face, and a mouthful of teeth are neat and snow-white. He was grinning and shouting at Su Qiaotong. (To be continued.) )
