Chapter 145: Escape Matters
Feng Bailin is not very proficient in medical skills, but he still understands it roughly, and when he first walked into the alley, he realized that someone was following him.
At first, he didn't care, after all, he was in the imperial city, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, what did the other party want to do with him, and he couldn't do it directly, right?
Later facts turned out that he was too naΓ―ve, and people can really do anything for money.
For example, after he frowned and asked who the person behind him was, they appeared in front of him one after another. After a rough count, there were about a dozen.
Cold sweat slowly slipped down from the corners of his forehead, and the little prince, who had never experienced strong winds and waves, was obviously a little scared, but the moment the fear came to his heart, he couldn't help but think of what his husband said more than once when he was studying in the palace. He is a prince, no matter how fearful he is, he should not show fear in front of others.
Therefore, after Feng Bailin was surrounded, he was still barely able to maintain his composure.
Then the dim light of the alley dimmed, and he recognized two of the people who stood in his way, a man he had accidentally bumped into when he had just left the palace, and a thin young man who had blackmailed him with cheap porcelain.
It seems that they are worried about the silver taels they carry with them.
Feng Bailin furrowed his brows, and said angrily: "It turns out that the two of you are in a gang, and you both want to blackmail me for money. β
"Hehe," the leading thug smiled angrily, "what is blackmail, what you said is too ugly, Childe." People like you, who live in the Gaomen Mansion, will never be able to understand the minds of us poor people, and the silver taels that we have worked so hard to earn are just a drop in the bucket for you noble children, so what we want from you today is to borrow, to rob the rich and help the poor, so it is not blackmail. β
As soon as he said this, the other thugs laughed loudly.
Feng Bailin looked at their arrogant appearance and felt extremely angry in his heart.
He is a prince, his identity is so noble, and he can encounter such a thing when he leaves the palace, doesn't it show that other people are even more in dire straits?
After he leaves this place, he must tell his father what happened today, not only these gangsters, but even all the officials suspected of harboring, none of them can escape!
But only if he can leave safely.
Looking at the hideous expressions of the gangsters, he inexplicably felt that this matter seemed to be a little hanging.
Feng Bailin gritted his teeth secretly: "Are you going to kill me?" β
"Childe, you said the wrong thing again, we just want to borrow a little money from you to live, how can we have such a thought," the thug spoke, his eyes turned down, and he looked at the place where Feng Bailin placed the silver ticket, "This is the boundary of the capital, you don't look like the son of an ordinary family, where can we have the idea of robbing and destroying our mouths." β
If it was before, they asked for money, and Feng Bailin would definitely not hesitate to give it in order to end the entanglement as soon as possible, after all, money was not important to him, and he had no concept of silver and two. But now it's different, he has just seen An Xiabai who is not afraid of facing others, and feels that a man who is seven feet tall cannot be inferior to a delicate girl.
He straightened his waist and said angrily to the thugs, "If you don't want money, you need to die." β
Feng Bailin's voice crossed the narrow alley, broke the deep silence of the alley, and directly reached the unwilling An Xiabai's ears.
At this time, An Xiabai was holding his coat and looking for people everywhere.
She was so anxious to separate just now that she forgot to take off the wind-blocking coat on her body and hand it to Feng Bailin, or after walking halfway back to the restaurant, she suddenly remembered that she was wearing clothes.
An Xiabai hurried back to the place where the two of them were separated, but Feng Bailin's figure had disappeared.
In desperation, she asked the restaurant maid, and when she learned that the other party was walking in the direction of the palace, she also followed quickly.
As a result, Feng Bailin's voice was heard at the entrance of the alley.
An Xiabai was secretly surprised, and after calming down and listening carefully, he realized that Feng Bailin could be in trouble.
The ancients said that wealth is not exposed, and it is really not nonsense.
An Xiabai's sigh fell silently into the wind, and then she began to think about how to successfully rescue Feng Bailin.
It is definitely not feasible to go head-to-head with others, he is just a weak woman, and Feng Bailin does not look like a person who is proficient in martial arts, so he can only outwit him.
Alas, it would be nice if Lu Li was here at this time.
When An Xiabai's mind turned, he couldn't help but think of Lu Li who rushed to the border, and it was clear that the two of them had only been separated for a day, and he began to miss him.
In a trance, she finally came up with a feasible plan.
While Feng Bailin was still arguing with the gangsters, she walked quickly to the entrance of the alley, deliberately going against the light, pretending to be panicked: "What are you guys doing here, oh my God, help, someone is coming, someone is going to die here!" β
She shouted as she turned her gaze to the street where the thugs couldn't see at all: "Official, come over here, there is a fight!" β
If An Xiabai came alone, it would be fine, but no, her voice attracted the attention of many people on the street.
The gangsters were afraid that there would really be an official errand coming, and they all began to become cowardly all of a sudden: "Why don't we run away first, I heard that because of the matter of the Thirteenth Princess recently, the investigation in the capital is very strict, and if you don't pay attention to it, it may be a big deal to lose your head!" β
Someone immediately reprimanded: "Do you still want money, and then you start to be afraid?" β
"Money is important, but life is more important, isn't it?"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the gangsters suddenly became colorful and wonderful.
It is good to have money to make, but the premise is that you have to spend it.
Listening to the footsteps outside getting closer and closer, the gangsters immediately decided: "Let's go first, don't wait for the official to come over, everyone is in this mess, if they see our faces, it will be troublesome, as for this kid, even if he is lucky!" β
They glared at Feng Bailin fiercely one by one, and trotted out of the alley.
As soon as they left on their front feet, An Xiabai rushed over to help Feng Bailin: "How are you, are you okay, did they beat you?" β
Feng Bailin patted his chest lightly, and shook his head in fear: "I'm fine, but I was scared, didn't you leave just now, why did you suddenly come back and bring an official errand?" β
This is the second time An Xiabai has saved him.
Feng Bailin said very cleanly: "Girl, I will definitely repay you tenfold in the future for your life-saving grace." β
An Xiabai said disapprerovingly: "It really doesn't matter whether you repay it or not, the important thing at the moment is that we have to get out of here quickly." β
Why, Feng Bailin asked her puzzled, "Isn't there an official mission to come?" β
An Xiabai was suddenly a little curious, what kind of family could raise a person with a simple personality like Feng Bailin, she frowned half-widely, lowered her voice and told him the truth: "Actually, there is no official mission to come at all." β
Feng Bailin's face changed slightly, and he subconsciously glanced in the direction where the gangsters left.
"Then let's get out of here quickly."
Instead of sticking to the alley, they turned their heads and walked in the direction of the street.
At the same time, among the group of people who had just left, one of them suddenly became more and more angry the more he thought about it: "No, I have to go back and see!" β
The person who spoke was the person who had blackmailed Bailin with cheap porcelain just now.
None of the people present had seen the stack of silver tickets that Feng Bailin took out, only he had seen it with his own eyes, so he was the most insistent.
Greed is the driving force of action: "I have to go and see if the official is gone, if there is really an official errand, anyway, they can't always follow the lamb, he will definitely have a time to be alone, and the girl who suddenly jumped out just now, looks very familiar, I suspect that she is in a gang with the fat sheep, they teamed up to deceive us!" β
As soon as these words came out, the gangsters quieted down one after another.
Maybe he has a point?
They decided to go back and take a look, just take a look, if there is really an official errand to come, they will run away immediately, and they will definitely not think about cheating money, if not, hehe, the girl who jumped out to help just now, and the son with the silver ticket on his body will die!
The thugs tiptoed back, only to find that there was no one in the alley, let alone an official errand, not even a ghost.
Enraged, they asked the residents passing by, and learned that there had been no official errands in the vicinity.
An Xia Bai deceived them!
After living in the capital for so many years, it was the first time that they were deceived by someone, and the gangsters were so angry that they almost exploded, and immediately ordered their brothers and friends to search for the whereabouts of An Xiabai and Feng Bailin nearby.
If they don't slaughter that fat sheep today, what face will they have to continue to mix around here!
On the one hand, it was the search of the gangsters, and on the other hand, it was a nervous escape, and the more An Xiabai ran, the more he felt that something was wrong.
Feng Bailin's running posture seemed to be a little wrong.
"Did you get hurt just now?" Seeing Feng Bailin limping as he ran, An Xiabai immediately concluded that he was injured, "Let's go sit over there for a while." β
His Royal Highness, a dignified prince, suffered such a tragic encounter after leaving the palace, and Feng Bailin felt ashamed when it was rumored out, he sighed and said: "It's not appropriate to go out today." β
An Xiabai chuckled, helped him sit down in the corner, and then carefully lifted his robe.
I don't know what's going on at the calf, the pants are cut wide, and the red blood stains are soaked through the fabric, which looks thrilling.
"Does it hurt?" An Xiabai furrowed his brows tightly, "I'll bandage you." β
"Isn't this not good," Feng Bailin blushed, waved his hand again and again, "Actually, it's not very painful, it's just a little uncomfortable." β
Mainly because of the difference between men and women, he felt a little embarrassed to tear the pants on his calf and ask An Xiabai to help bandage it.
"It's important to take care of the wound." An Xia Bai still insisted.
Since the girls don't care, he doesn't seem to have to care about a big man, after all, he is the one who was injured: "Then thank you girl." β
An Xia Bai responded lightly, gently tore the fabric from the wound, and then took out his handkerchief to help bandage it.
