Chapter 42: A Storm Omen
Tang Shaohe sat on the carriage with a nervous expression, and from time to time he lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out.
The sun is about to go down in the west, and I wonder how long this fight will last? If she continues to fight like this, she is worried that this side will not be able to support it.
Just as she was waiting anxiously, a fragrant and pleasant voice came from her ears, "Girl, the prince and the general are back." β
Tang Shaohe opened the curtain and looked, and found that the prince and the general were walking towards her, and a hanging heart settled down, but fortunately, both of them came back safely.
"Lord Wang, how is the situation?" She opened her mouth to ask, but her eyes fell on the adhesive tape wrapped around General Meng's palm, and there were traces of bright red blood oozing from it, and she couldn't help but ask, "Is the general okay?" β
"Miss Xie cares, this little injury is nothing." Meng Shilin smiled heartily, looking at her with an imperceptible warmth in his eyes.
Qi Yanxiao pondered for a moment, his eyes flashed slightly, and he frowned and said in a deep voice: "Don't say it yet, hurry up and get in the car, and then let people take those little leaders back for a good interrogation." β
"Well, that's all there is to it." Meng Shilin nodded approvingly, followed Qi Yanxiao into the carriage, and the two sat opposite Tang Shaohe.
Looking at their solemn expressions, Tang Shaohe guessed that the bandit leader must have run away, otherwise the prince would not have said so.
Tang Shaohe lowered his head and sat on the side stiffly, facing the gazes that the two of them swept towards her from time to time, a heart beat so fast that she felt like she was about to breathe.
If she could, she would have jumped out of the carriage and found a hole in the ground to get into, so that she would not be like a prey to be stared at from time to time, which would be very unnatural for her.
The sky had begun to darken, and a bright moon hung quietly in the sky, and the carriage took advantage of the moonlight to gallop forward.
Suddenly the horses neighed and screamed, and both horses raised their front legs in fright, and the carriage suddenly tilted greatly.
Tang Shaohe didn't have time to grasp it with both hands, and his body was already tilted and crashed into the rear compartment! As soon as Qianjun was fired, a man's eager voice came from inside the carriage: "Be carefulβ"
Qi Yanxiao quickly stretched out her hand and grabbed her left hand, she turned around sharply, and saw that she was about to fall into his arms......
It was too late, but it was too late, and the coachman grabbed the reins violently, shouted at the horse, and then said, "Lord, the horse is frightened, everyone is seated!" β
Tang Shaohe felt that his hand was about to be painfully held by him, so he hurriedly took advantage of the moment when the coachman reined in the horse, and put his other hand on Qi Dixiao's shoulder, trying his best to stabilize his body.
At this time, the two of them stared at each other, and they were stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses, and a bitter smile pulled out from the corner of her mouth, and now her reputation was gone.
Tang Shaohe withdrew his hand from his hand like an electric shock, quickly sat back in his seat, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Thank you, Lord Wang, otherwise I will become a poor 'meatloaf'." β
A witty remark broke the dull atmosphere in the carriage, and General Meng laughed and said, "Haha, interesting girl......"
Qi Yanxiao glared at her, his face sank like water, he sat in the carriage with his hands on his chest, and silently closed his eyes and did not look at her.
The corners of Tang Shaohe's eyes curved slightly, and he quietly raised his eyes to glance at General Meng, that gentle smile really warmed her heart, even if she didn't say anything like this, she felt happy.
The group returned to the inn in the small village, and after the two big men got out of the carriage and asked the coachman what had just happened, the two of them moved into the room next to her, one left and one right.
In this regard, Tang Shaohe said that he did not understand a little and tried to find the answer from the two of them.
General Meng said it would be a pleasure to live next door with someone as interesting as hers.
Qi Dixiao was different, she didn't even bother to say anything, she turned her head and shook her face to show her, looking too lazy to pay attention to her, so angry that she wanted to block him in the aisle at the door of the room to prevent him from entering or leaving.
However, soon she no longer bothered about this result, because General Meng lived next door to her, and he was in a beautiful mood, what did he care about the black-faced god?
It's also strange to say that whenever she wants to take the opportunity to find General Meng, that Prince Qi will always accompany General Meng with a straight face, and he won't even look at her.
She was about to go crazy, every time she was separated by the prince of Naqi, how could she have a good conversation with General Meng?
It's not that she likes to be calculating, but she just doesn't understand, two big men are always stuck in the same room, and sometimes even the food is brought in to eat, what can she say all day long?
She wondered what they were doing in there. It's mysterious all day long! So much so that when Tang Shaohe saw Prince Qi, he always looked unhappy with him.
Sometimes, she waited at the door early, ready to wait for General Meng to open the door, and she rushed over to say hello to General Meng. But she didn't expect someone's hands and feet to be so fast, and before she stepped out of the door, she had already heard the sound of Qi Dixiao talking to General Meng.
"Lord Wang, why is it so early today?" General Meng was a little surprised, smiled and invited him in.
"General Meng, this king has thought of a good plan to capture the bandit leader alive, how about studying it together?" Qi Dianxiao glanced at the door next door out of the corner of his eyes.
The corners of his mouth curled into a shallow arc, as if he casually raised his hand on the doorknob and shook the door two or three times.
Immediately afterwards, the door slammed, as if to tell her that he had made a personal appointment with General Meng, and she should stop getting involved, so angry that her whole heart and lungs were about to burst.
Just to say hello, is he robbing her like this? It seems to be deliberately aimed at her, which makes people annoyed when they see it.
Where the hell did she recruit him to provoke him? always likes to sing against her, forcing her to give up General Meng to him, this trick is ruthless enough!
Tang Shaohe walked around the door irritably, she didn't believe that Prince Qi could guard her every day without doing anything. It's better than getting up early, she's okay, it's a big deal to get up early and wait for the general to go out.
Maybe it's pitiful, or maybe she can't bear to toss herself like this, and finally one day, the hard work pays off, and the opportunity comes.
Early in the morning, Hanxiang said to her: "Girl, the prince will go to Heifeng Cliff to deal with the remaining bandits, and I heard that the leader of the bandits has been caught." β
That's fine, then she can talk to General Meng. Thinking of this, she happily hoped that Prince Qi would go out earlier.
"What are you doing here?" Suddenly there was a cold voice from Prince Qi's ears.
The corners of his mouth gently hooked up a charming shallow arc, and his gaze was as deep as the vast starry sky, dazzling and dazzling.
Tang Shaohe raised his head, and the handsome face of Prince Qi suddenly appeared in front of him, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, God, this is definitely an omen before the storm!
