Chapter Ninety-Five: Danger
The tears that slipped invaded the noodle bowl, and Chunli got up, "Shopkeeper, find a private room, my friend has arrived." It was still the usual pastry, everyone sat down, and the lady was very excited and sobbed.
Chunli looked at her mother and found that her mother's hair was a little more snow-white, her mother was only in her forties, Chunxi was choked up, and she couldn't say a word.
"Chunli," Madame wanted to approach, but Chunli pointed outside, stopped less, and the cousin brought food in, Chunli waited for the person to go, and knelt in front of Madame with tears in her eyes.
Since entering the palace, Chunli has never cried again, it is a world where the weak eat the strong, in that world, tears can't be resolute about any problems, she didn't have a single tear, but at this moment, when she saw her mother and sister, she suddenly burst into tears.
"Mother!" Chunli was paralyzed in Mrs. years ago.
"Sister!"
"Sister!"
The three of them hugged their heads and cried, Chunli asked about the current situation of her mother and Chunxi, and found that the two of them were okay, which was relieved, and after eating, Chunli said again: "In the future, we will not meet if we don't meet, mother, now that my sister and I have a half-official position in the imperial capital, the eyes of the eyes may fall on us at any time, and everyone must have their own destiny for the time being." ”
"Chunli!" Madame grabbed Chunli's hand and choked up: "Come back, our family of three is still living a good life, and the bitterness is the bitterness, but how can you rest assured when you get to the palace?" ”
Chunli was most afraid of her mother saying this, and reminded: "Mother, how can it be a family of three, brother?" "Ji Chunli can't rehabilitate Zhaoxue for his father, and it is impossible for his brother to return to Beijing, all the sacrifices made by Chunli are valuable, but her mother hopes that they can steal peace.
"Mother," Chunli slowly got up and stared at the gradually fainting night, she seemed to be looking for some target or direction, and her eyes gradually emptied in a position where she lost focus, "Mother, for today's female official, Chunli has been working hard for a long time, the so-called word into the public door can not be dragged out, and now the arrow has to be sent on the string, just rest assured." ”
"How can you let Wei Niang rest assured."
"Sister, you have to spend more time with your mother in my absence, I will inform you if there is anything in the imperial capital, and you should also pay attention to your safety in the palace, you know?" It sounds like an entrustment, but it's more of an order, Ji Chunxi has been used to being led by Ji Chunli since he was a child, and when he heard Chunli emphasize it so much, he didn't think it was angry, and nodded again and again.
Chunli turned around, "I'll go first, and you guys will go back later, don't let people see the clues." ”
Chunli went downstairs to pay the bill and left, her mother and sister stayed for a while and went, naturally Ji Chunxi said a lot of words to comfort her mother, and Mrs. cried and cried is always not good.
Chunli got into the carriage and walked back, and after walking for a while, she suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves behind her, and then the horses stood up and neighed twice. When Chunli saw that the roof of the carriage was tied with a rope, she thought it was a clothesline at first, but then she realized that it was actually a whip.
The reason why she chose to walk such a small alley just now was because she was afraid that the main road would attract attention, but how did she know that there was a group of bandits here.
The security in Zhongjing is good, it is not the fault that someone is following, otherwise where is such a group of roadblockers, Chunli's eyes were solemn, and she saw a group of people flying down from the alley and Wu Ding, and that group of people landed in front of Ji Chunli.
"Good man," Chunli didn't fight with them, even if there was a chance of winning, she believed that Wuhou would come in to deal with the matter as soon as there was a fight here, but after Wuhou arrived, her identity might be exposed.
A little crisis must be perfectly avoided, Chunli took a deep breath, "A good man spares his life, all the little woman's money is here, there are as many as thirty taels, and they are all filial piety to the masters." ”
Chunli is very good at acting, especially after entering the palace, the weak performance in the inner courtyard of the deep palace is like dancing on a tightrope is also a survival skill, but that person doesn't seem to have come to ask for silver.
"Uncle is, yes, is he robbed?" It's not like that.
Besides, Chunli is dressed up with a gray face today, who would be so heavy on the taste that he would "rob the color"? Chunli was still thinking nonsense, the top of her head was cold, and a person's crazy knife had been waved, this was forcing her to do it, Rao is Ji Chunli's martial arts are strong, and she is also terrifying in the face of this.
She turned around and took out the nine-section whip she had prepared, and with a snap, the tip of the whip hit the eye of the person opposite, and the man staggered and fell into the ditch in the distance.
"Who asked you to come?" Chunli understands that her identity has been exposed, but the good thing is that the reason why they didn't do it at the inn means that they failed to track Chunxi and her mother.
"Ji Chunli, you don't need to know who asked us to come." The people in the back had already slashed over with long knives, and Chunli had learned superior martial arts thanks to Xiao Qiyu, otherwise he would have died at this moment.
A few rounds later, many people were hit by Chunli's nine-section whip, but the horse-faced man had already strangled Chunli with a leather rope, and he dragged it hard, and Chunli was in danger.
The man tied Ji Chunli to the horse's tail, the man whipped the horse, the horse had already pulled out its feet and galloped, but it would go to the distance for a while, Chunli only felt that his back was rubbing against the ground, probably his clothes were torn, and his heart was piercing.
At this moment, another group of people appeared in the darkness.
"Help, quick!" A masked man gave the order, and the group of armed men beside him rode close to the first group, and the two groups of people fought involuntarily.
The first wave of people couldn't resist it, and fled from the wind, someone came over to untie the leather rope around Ji Chunli's neck, it was a seemingly delicate girl, the girl's hair was combed up, tied with a lambskin, and a copper bell fell on it, she was wearing dark clothes, not like a woman at all.
But the corners of the eyebrows and eyes clearly have a woman's femininity, and the talking eyes looked Chunli up and down, and then there was a smile at the corners of her mouth.
This smile made her look a little younger than her actual age, and she got up handsomely: "You are Ji Chunli?" ”
She didn't support Chunli, giving Chunli the dignity that a martial arts practitioner should have, Ji Chunli struggled and stood firm.
"Why save me? Seeing the unevenness of the road, draw a knife to help? The woman smiled indifferently, pulled out her knife from the corpse, and landed in the scabbard with a bang, "I'm not a dog who takes a mouse, our master wants to save you, follow me to see the master." ”
"Master?" Chunli is full of suspicions, who arranged the group of people before? Xiao Ziyan? Could it be that he saw it as soon as he left the palace?
Now Chunli has turned enemies into friends with Ying Hou, and Chunli has gradually been reused by Emperor Jiading, so using the elimination method, I am afraid that there will be no second person except Xiao Ziyan who really has a holiday with him and will put himself to death.
Chunli only felt that her shoulder blades hurt, the girl saw Chunli walking slowly, turned around and patted Chunli's shoulder hard, and Ji Chunli's tears came out of the pain, "Don't grind, we'll go back later." ”
Chunli quickened her pace and went to meet their master.
The man turned his back to Chunli, Chunli looked at his back, and hurriedly retreated, but a group of people behind him pulled out the treasure knife and waited for Chunli to send it to the door.
"This is hell!"
Xiao Ziyan's voice, as soon as Xiao Ziyan's voice came to an end, the white jade-like long fingers took away the mask, and smiled coldly, "Ji Chunli, I didn't expect it, I saved you." ”
"Xiao Ziyan? You? Why? "Xiao Ziyan wants to put Chunli to death the most, but why should he suddenly help Chunli? Chunli stared at him in surprise.
"The inner courtyard of the deep palace is seeking skin with the tiger, whose side are you on now, I really can't even guess it." In fact, it's not just Ji Chunli's position that Xiao Ziyan can't guess, and even Ji Chunli's identity is an unsolved mystery to him.
"Kill if you want to."
Chunli is not afraid at all, as Xiao Ziyan said, this is hell, is there anything terrible about her having entered hell? Xiao Ziyan looked at Chunli as a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, approached her, pinched Chunli's chin with his hand, and secretly exerted force, Chunli only felt that his mandible and cheeks were about to be crushed.
