Chapter 220: Counting is Counting
They first went around the cliff from the right side, although Shen Yifeng said that after going up the cliff, he could go east to the nearest official road, but after he really came up, he followed the previous trajectory of the carriage and walked back.
Su Xue didn't question anything, just followed him not far away.
Shen Yifeng also seemed to have made up his mind, and Su Xue didn't have the courage to act alone in the forest now, so he had to follow him.
After walking in the forest for about half an hour, Su Xue proposed to rest for a while.
When she found a small bluestone, she didn't care about anything anymore, picked up the weeds and picked up her skirt and sat down to rest.
looked at Shen Yifeng again and said, "Walking like this, I'm afraid you'll have to go farther, you have a leg injury, but can you still hold on?"
Shen Yifeng was slightly startled when he heard this, he thought that Su Xue was Miss Jiao's fault, and he was afraid that he would be tired before he had to rest, but he didn't expect to be worried about his leg injury.
At that time, as soon as the vine broke, he subconsciously hugged her, and there was really a moment when all thoughts were lost.
In his life, it is difficult for him to think about fame and honor for a moment, but at that time, he really wanted to protect her, but he couldn't protect her, so he simply buried him in the same cave, and in the face of life and death, he didn't have much sadness in his heart.
Fortunately, the cliff was not too high, and he fell down the slope with her in his arms, injuring only his right leg.
Su Xue had found out that his leg was injured at the bottom of the cliff before, but she didn't ask the first half of the question, but she remembered it now.
He was a little happy in his heart, but he said: "You still remember that I had an injury on my leg, but doesn't the third sister understand medical skills?" I can't cripple my leg, right? ”
Su Xue glanced at him twice, he actually knew that she knew how to heal......
It was in the infirmary. Did he recognize her?
Su Xue looked away, and said lightly: "It's not crippled."
He can still walk normally, and stretch and flex freely, it should be no big problem, and even if there is a big problem, Shen Yifeng's affairs will not be her turn to worry about.
As she was talking, she heard the sound of horses' hooves and footsteps, and Su Xue immediately straightened up and looked around.
Shen Yifeng stared at the row of figures that were gradually approaching in front of him, and his face turned cold again.
"Miss? It's really a young lady! Miaomu was the first to cry out. Jumped out of the carriage and ran towards her.
Su Xue saw that Pei Ye and Miaomeng had come over. was also so excited that his eyes were hot, and he hurriedly stepped forward.
Miaomeng burst into tears, wiping Su Xue's face with a silk silk, and asked her if she was scared.
Pei Yegao sat on the black horse. His eyes kept staring at Shen Yifeng behind Su Xue.
Not to be outdone, Shen Yifeng looked at Pei Ye. I didn't forget to step forward and remind Miaomeng softly: "Your young lady stayed in the forest all night. After walking all this way, she must be thirsty and hungry now, and you remember to prepare some sugar water for her. ”
Miaomeng was too excited. For a while, there was only Su Xue in her eyes, and it was only then that she realized that there was a fifth aunt standing next to her.
Why is the fifth aunt here?
Miao Meng couldn't help but be a little stunned, looked at Su Xue, and then looked at Shen Yifeng, and couldn't help but want to ask something, but she didn't dare, so she had to hold it in her heart.
Su Xue knew what Miaomeng was surprised about, but she was very glad that Miaomeng didn't speak as recklessly as before, and turned around to give Miaomeng a look, Miaomeng immediately bowed her head, thanked Shen Yifeng, and wanted to help Su Xue back to the carriage.
As soon as Su Xue turned around, she felt a weight on her body, and Pei Ye put on a robe for her.
"My lips turned white after a night of freezing." Pei Ye's gentle voice came from above his head.
Su Xue hurriedly said: "It was Su Xue who didn't listen to the advice and made the Hou Ye suffer."
Pei Ye tied the brocade belt for her, turned sideways, and said loudly to Shen Yifeng: "You have a meritorious service in saving Miss Jiang, and you will receive the reward when you return to the house."
As he spoke, he frowned again: "It's just that when did you enter the mansion?" How do you get so faced? But it seems that he has good skills, and he turned around and mentioned being the chief of the guard in the house. ”
Miao Meng was taken aback when she heard this, and hurriedly explained: "Master Hou recognized the wrong person, that is the second son of Shen, the fifth aunt of the Jiang family."
Su Xue also looked back at Shen Yifeng, only to realize that he was wearing this strong suit and really looked like Pei Ye's guards.
But Shen Yifeng had won the championship in the racecourse, and he had just been promoted by the prince to the Hanlin Academy, why didn't Pei Ye know him?
Shen Yifeng's face was pale, but he didn't speak.
Pei Ye smiled apologetically, frowned and thought, "Second son Shen? There seems to be a Shen family in Liuzhou, but I only heard that there is a Shen eldest son, and the second son died when he was young......"
Miao Meng saw Pei Ye talking farther and farther, and hurriedly said: "Master Hou, the fifth aunt is from the Shen family in the capital."
He glanced at it: "There is a Shen family in the capital?"
The air fell silent for a moment, Shen Yifeng clenched his teeth, and his face was already very ugly.
Su Xue seemed to hear a bit of ridicule from what she said just now.
Is Pei Ye deliberately burying Shen Yifeng?
I thought that the atmosphere would be so cold, but unexpectedly, Pei Ye smiled again: "Since this is the case, then I will come to visit and thank you in the future, but there is a lot of inconvenience today, and I need to send Miss Jiang back to my house immediately." This second son of Shen, please take care of yourself. ”
Pei Ye's tone intensified in the last sentence, and his gaze became cold.
Miao Meng saw that Pei Ye said this, so she had to quickly salute Shen Yifeng, and helped Su Xue to hurriedly get into the carriage.
Shen Yifeng looked at the backs of Su Xue and Pei Ye, his anger couldn't stop rising to the ground, he clenched his fists, he felt unprecedented shame and anger, and he was so angry that he wanted to fight with him on the spot.
The carriage kicked up dust and fallen leaves on the ground, leaving Shen Yifeng standing alone.
This time, Pei Ye also sat in the carriage, Su Xue and Miaomeng sat on one side, and he was opposite.
The carriage shook and began to move forward, Su Xue hurriedly grabbed Miaomeng's hand and couldn't help but let out a low cry.
Pei Ye heard Miaomeng and the guards say that the carriage was out of control at that time and ran out with Su Xue, so he expected Su Xue to be afraid, so he comforted: "Miss Jiang, don't be afraid, the carriage won't have any more accidents."
Su Xue raised her eyes and saw Pei Ye's worried face, her heart warmed slightly, her hands hidden under the robe secretly clenched, lowered her eyebrows, and said, "It's all because Su Xue didn't listen to the advice, so she caused these incidents, and caused the Hou Ye to run back and forth, which is really a sin."
Pei Ye's eyes showed even more guilt after hearing this: "Where is Miss Jiang's sin, it is clearly my sin." I have to personally escort Miss Jiang back to Jiang Mansion, and then make amends to Master Jiang in person, Miss Jiang...... You won't still give me a chance, will you? ”
"I don't dare to let Hou Ye make amends, but after running around like this, I will inevitably be tired, if Hou Ye doesn't dislike it, you can go to our mansion to rest and rectify first."
Pei Ye saw that Su Xue was finally relieved, and couldn't help but rejoice: "When I wait for the official road, I will send someone to the mansion to report first, which will also save Master Jiang from worrying."
As soon as Miao Meng heard that the Hou Ye was really going to come to the house, she couldn't help but be excited, and she made enough pomp and asked someone to report first, which was obviously to formally visit the second master and the old lady, so she couldn't be vague. It seems that it can't be wrong, the good thing of Hou Ye and Miss will definitely be done.
Su Xue's eyes became nervous when she heard this, her face was also a little anxious, her lips trembled, and finally she only said, "Su Xue can't wait to go back to the house immediately...... It's better not to take the official road, go through the woods, and get closer. ”
Su Xue suddenly proposed not to take the official road, which made Pei Ye a little surprised.
Miaomeng pushed Su Xue's arm and said softly: "Miss, you're not afraid, if you encounter something again......"
Su Xue glanced at Miaomeng with slight disgust: "With the Hou Ye here, who would dare to come?"
Pei Ye smiled when he heard this: "Thanks to Miss Jiang's trust, since Miss Jiang is eager to return home, let's go closer."
With that, the probe said a few words to the groom.
Su Xue breathed a sigh of relief silently, and her clenched fists finally let go.
Miao Meng was carefully tidying up for Su Xue on the side, as if she wanted to cover Su Xue's soiled clothes, but she was worried that she would stain Pei Ye's robe.
Picking it up like this, he suddenly saw blood on the middle finger of Su Xue's right hand, and couldn't help but hurriedly say, "Miss, your hand is injured!"
Su Xue spread out her five fingers when she heard this, her eyes were calm, and it was only then that she felt pain.
She only told Miao Meng and Pei Ye that the wound was accidentally scratched when the carriage was bumping, but only she knew that it was her own puncture......
Last night, she smelled a strange fragrance when she was pretending to sleep, and she felt weak all over her body, of course she realized that it was a misty fragrance, but she didn't dare to debunk it immediately, so she simply calculated and pretended to fall asleep.
She felt the scent getting stronger and stronger, so she had to bite her lower lip to keep her awake. In the fog, she felt that Shen Yifeng got up and seemed to have gone further.
However, she was already tired, and the effect of the incense made her more and more unable to support it.
She gritted her teeth and struggled in her half-consciousness, so she secretly took off the hairpin on her head and pricked it into her fingers......
The pain kept her awake.
She remained motionless again, for fear of being seen by Shen Yifeng, and Shen Yifeng had no time to pay attention to her little movement at that time, because he was plotting the next assassination......
Sure enough, those men in black were sent by Shen Yifeng.
She held her breath and listened quietly to Shen Yifeng's plan to assassinate the Marquis of Xiling under his commands. Until she woke up on the second day, she still pretended to be casual, and in order to ensure that Shen Yifeng did not change her plan temporarily, she also deliberately expressed her willingness to take the official road back to her home......
Miaomeng took out a silk silk to wrap her wounds, and kept asking her if she had any other wounds.
She looked at the blood spilling from her middle finger, silently withdrew her thoughts, and shook her head slightly.
She didn't dare to rashly tell Pei Ye everything she had heard, but looking at Pei Ye's attitude towards Shen Yifeng, he should know it in his heart.
I don't need to talk about some things in detail, if you say too much, you will lose, in the eyes of others, the less she knows, the better.
Shen Yifeng waited in the forest for a full hour before the pomegranate came to report.
Thinking of the humiliation suffered by Fang Cai, Shen Yifeng's anger still did not subside, and suddenly, he didn't want to kill the Marquis of Xiling immediately.
He is not willing to let the Marquis of Xiling die like this, he wants to return all the humiliation to him! Doesn't the Marquis of Xiling care about Jiang Suxue? Then he will let the Marquis of Xiling die like a dog in front of Jiang Suxue!
Shen Yifeng's face seemed to be stained with a thin layer of frost, he was not an extremely cruel person, but this time, it was the Marquis of Xiling who asked for it. (To be continued......)
