Chapter 214: In Danger
Du Wen observed the outside in the carriage, and saw that after the carriage passed the Tiancang Pass, it continued to move north, knowing that it was about to reach the boundary of the Shang Kingdom. There is a team of soldiers outside the car, about forty or fifty people, and if she wants to get out, it shouldn't be a big problem, but there is still Nianyou in the car, what should she do if she escapes?
"Master, where are they going to send us?" Nian You woke up soon after leaving Jiangzhou City, and heard Du Wen say that it was the merchant army outside the car instead of the Liang army, so she was very frightened, and pulled Du Wen's arm tightly to lean against her.
Du Wen patted Nianyou's little hand and replied softly: "They said they were going to Yanshun Mansion, which is the city of Shangguo. ”
"Why did you send us somewhere?"
"I don't know." Du Wen replied.
Nian You looked out cautiously, turned around and whispered: "Master, there are dozens of soldiers outside, you may escape?" ”
Du Wen smiled and asked, "What should you do when I'm gone?" ”
Nian Youyi bit his lip and said, "As long as the master escapes, don't worry about me, go find the adult." ”
Du Wen nodded with a smile and said, "Although I don't know why they sent me to Shangguo, I know that they won't hurt us, so we wait for the opportunity and go together if we go." ”
Nian You tightened her wrist and leaned her head over, and Du Wen hugged her tightly.
The carriage traveled for a long time, entered the border city of Yanshun Mansion of the Shang Kingdom, and stopped before reaching a compound.
The soldier asked Du Wen to get out of the car and enter the hospital, Nian You was scared in her heart, and pulled Du Wen tightly. Du Wen's face did not change, and she stepped into the courtyard.
The two waited in the hall for a while, and a son came out from behind, followed by two men. When the boy saw Du Wen, his expression changed, he stepped forward and smiled lightly, and said, "But Miss Du Wen?" ”
"Who are you?" Du Wen didn't know this person, and when she saw that he knew his name, she frowned and asked.
"Haha......" The boy laughed and said, "I am Cui Yan, the third prince of the Shang Kingdom, and I have met Miss Du. After saying that, he gave a salute.
Du Wen saw that the other party was actually a prince, and she wondered in her heart, what did the prince bring me? Do you want me to blackmail you?
"You are the prince, what is the purpose of plundering a woman from me?" Du Wen asked coldly.
Cui Yan saw that she was indifferent, and she was not angry, so she said with a smile: "A few days ago, I had a relationship with Miss Du in Tiancang Pass, and I met that day, and I thought about Miss Du day and night, and I just looked forward to meeting again......"
"Thank you prince for your love." Du Wen interrupted Cui Yan's words mercilessly, turned up, and said, "You are the prince, I am the daughter of the people, how can I afford to climb high." ”
Cui Yan disagreed, and said: "Miss Du's words are wrong, my father understands the righteousness, as long as I agree, my father will agree." ”
Du Wen chuckled and asked with a smile: "I don't know what identity the third prince will give me?" ”
Du Wen was joking, but Cui Yan thought about it seriously, pondered for a while and said: "If I ascend the throne in the future, I can make you a concubine, but I'm afraid that the queen won't be you." ”
"Why is there someone else in the Queen?"
"You are not from the business, and you are from a private ......," Cui Yan replied casually.
Du Wen sneered, and said in a hurry: "You say it, the king of Shang knows it well, but there is such a difference, it can be seen that it is all lies." ”
"Ah...... No, you're mistaken. Cui Yan was stunned for a moment, explained, and stretched out his hands to wave.
Du Wen glanced at him, straightened up, and said, "To tell you the truth, even if I give me the position of queen, I will not agree to you." I am a wife, how can I not obey the way of a woman? ”
"You're a wife? Who to marry? Cui Yan never expected it, his face changed slightly, and he hurriedly asked.
Du Wen lowered her face and said coldly: "As a prince, if you ask about the family affairs of the people's daughters, won't you lose your identity." ”
As soon as Cui Yan was told by him, he realized that he was anxious, so he found words for himself and said: "I don't know that you are married, but I want to know who Miss Du's husband is, and I will order someone to send you back." ”
Du Wen smiled and didn't believe it, she was young, and when she heard that she could go back, she blurted out: "My family is a Jiangzhou garrison ......."
"Nian You, Hugh has to talk nonsense." Du Wen was in a hurry, and it was too late to stop it.
"You are Ye Yuanhang's wife?" Cui Yan looked at Du Wen sideways, and Du Wen looked back at him.
"Huh." Cui Yan laughed and said lightly: "No wonder she is well-dressed and accompanied by a maid, how can a folk girl be like this, it turns out to be Mrs. Ye." ”
Du Wen said: "What's the matter, the Shang State invaded our country, and I will defeat you if I refuse to lead troops." ”
Cui Yan shook his head and said: "The war has just started, and the victory or defeat is not divided, how can you assert that you are a woman, you rest here first, and I will come back later." Cui Yan glanced at Du Wen, turned around and walked out of the hall, and instructed the man who followed behind him: "Send soldiers to guard this courtyard strictly, and don't let her leave this courtyard." ”
"Yes." The two bent over to respond, and Cui Yan left with his chest straight.
Seeing Cui Yan leaving, Nian You knew that she had said the wrong thing, so she stood beside Du Wen timidly and whispered, "Master, the slave is wrong......
Du Wen turned around and glanced at her, didn't blame her too much, just said: "Now that Shangliang is fighting, and the lord is on guard, if he knows that he will definitely use us to threaten, remember in the future, don't say much." ”
"Hmm." Nian Yu nodded hurriedly and asked, "Master, how are we doing now?" ”
"What else, there are enemy troops all around this courtyard, let's wait patiently and look for opportunities." Du Wen sighed, glanced at the outside of the courtyard, and said with relief.
Cui Yan returned to the room and angrily smashed a teacup, so frightened that the maid entourage in the room did not dare to make a sound, and stood aside tremblingly.
"Get out, get out." Cui Yan turned around angrily and shouted, sitting on the chair.
"Such a beauty is actually a wife, and the husband is still a guard." Cui Yan muttered to himself, blaming himself for getting acquainted with Du Wen late, and hated sailing away in his heart.
The next day, the merchant army retreated to Yanshun Mansion, and after the Korean returned with the army, he came to meet Cui Yan, and the two talked in the house.
"Defeated?" Cui Yan couldn't believe it and asked in surprise.
"Evenly divided." Han Yu replied: "The gate of Jiangzhou is damaged, it cannot be defended, the enemy has more reinforcements than our army, Marshal Chi withdrew the army to Yanshun Mansion, and the whole army fought again." ”
"Well, our army is relatively close to here, I will immediately write to my father and the emperor, and then send reinforcements, if I want to come to Liang State to send reinforcements again, I will not be in a hurry." Cui Yan said in a deep voice and asked, "Where is Marshal Chi now?" ”
"I have also returned, I should arrange the city defenses, and I will meet the prince later."
"Hmm." Cui Yan nodded.
"Prince, have you ever seen Miss Du sent by your subordinates?" Han Yu squinted at Cui Yan, Du Wen came in advance, fortunately, Cui Yan was here to ask for a reward.
Cui Yan's face sank, looked up at him, and said, "She is married, and her husband is Jiangzhou Garrison Ye Yuanhang." It's too late to get acquainted, it's useless to stay, let's send her away in the future. ”
"Huh?" Han Yu shouted in a lost voice, and secretly said in his heart that it was bad, the horse's fart was not filmed well, and the horse's hooves were patted up.
After thinking about it, he asked, "She is the wife of the Jiangzhou garrison?" ”
Cui Yan nodded silently. Han Yu leaned forward and said, "Prince, since this is the case, it may be useful to keep this woman." ”
Cui Yan was puzzled and looked at Korean. Korean said: "The defense of Jiangzhou City is held, and it is said that this garrison is good at governing the army." If this person is removed, there will be chaos in Jiangzhou, and it will be easy to attack again. In addition to this person, this woman may be available. ”
Cui Yan was displeased when he heard this, and reprimanded: "Wouldn't such methods make people laugh, as a prince, how can I be like this." ”
Han Yu bent down and said softly: "As long as you don't know about it, the third prince, if you can get Jiangzhou, it will be a great achievement, and you will have a lot of bargaining chips to inherit the throne in the future." ”
There was no sound in the room, and Cui Yan pondered. Although Du Wen is lovely, she is just a wife, and it is meaningless to herself. If she is used to lure Ye Yuanhang, she may be able to force him to surrender to the city, even if he can't, it can also make him have scruples, which is very beneficial to himself.
After thinking about it, he asked, "What should I do with her?" ”
Han pondered for a while, and said: "The prince can lie to her, only say that he will send her back, so that she will repair a book for Ye Yuanhang, and agree to give it away ten miles outside Yanshun Mansion." ”
"Then we will ambush him here and capture him." Cui Yan suddenly realized, his eyes shining, and he said.
Han Yu nodded repeatedly, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
Early the next morning, Cui Yan came to the courtyard where Du Wen lived with Korean, and persuaded her with coaxing.
"It was me who was abrupt, and I didn't know that Miss Du was Ye Shoubei's wife, so I sent you to Yanshun Mansion. Please don't blame Miss Du, the third prince has already reprimanded me, and I will send you to reunite with Ye Shoubei on a certain day. Han Yu was the first to accompany the smiling face and said kindly.
Du Wen was expressionless and said, "That's the case, thank you very much." ”
Han Yu didn't care about Du Wen's attitude, he was still laughing, and said lightly: "I'm afraid that Ye Shoubei won't believe it, it's better to bother Miss Du to repair a book, I will order someone to send it, and I will hand over the girl to Ye Shoubei ten miles outside the house, okay?" ”
Cui Yan didn't speak on the side, looking at Du Wen.
Du Wen was so smart that she knew that they would never let go of themselves easily, and she was afraid that it would be detrimental to the voyage, so she smiled lightly and said: "Thank you to the third prince first, there is no need to repair the book, I can go back to Jiangzhou by myself." ”
"Eh, at this time, the war is chaotic, the road is uneven, if there is anything missing, how can I feel at peace." Cui Yan raised the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly, and said, "It's better to hand it over to Ye Shoubei in person." ”
Du Wen put away her smile and said, "Since the war is uneven, my father-in-law must not leave Jiangzhou, otherwise the father-in-law will not be in danger." ”
Cui Yan and Han Yu glanced at each other, and saw that Du Wen already knew the plan made by the two, and they were unhappy.
Han Yu's face changed, and he said coldly: "You better be smarter, if you don't repair the book with him at noon, don't blame me for being ruthless." ”
Du Wen also became angry and reprimanded: "You are still the prince of the Shang Kingdom, you are so humble, even if I die, I will not let you succeed." ”
Cui Yan was embarrassed when he said a word, but Han said fiercely: "The words have come to this, you think about it, if you don't see the letter at noon, there is no need to keep you." ”
Nian You hurriedly stepped forward from behind, blocked Du Wen from reaching out and pointing at Han and scolding, and said, "Shameless, bully my master, when my family brings troops in, you will be killed." ”
"Hmph." Han Yu snorted coldly, turned his head to Cui Yan and said, "Prince, let's go back first, if we don't see the letter at noon, we will leave her behind." ”
Cui Yan glanced at Du Wen deeply, Du Wen raised her eyelids and ignored it, Cui Yan turned around and walked out, Han turned around and glared at Du Wen's master and servant, and followed.
"Master." Nian You turned around and called softly, Du Wen said lightly: "They want to lure Xianggong here, I won't let them get their way." ”
"But they said it was ...... at noon."
Du Wen smiled, took Nian You's little hand, and said lightly: "It's okay, don't be afraid, even if you die, you can't put him in danger." ”
"No, the master quickly escapes, don't worry about me."
"Silly girl, there are four soldiers outside the door, there are everywhere in the courtyard, even if I want to go, how can I go." Du Wen shook her head and said.
Nian You's face showed an anxious look, and she was so anxious that she was about to shed tears.
"Master, I have a way." Nian You suddenly ran towards the door, opened the door and went out, but the soldiers outside the door blocked her way.
"Where's the latrine? I have stomach aches. Nian You's body bent slightly, holding her stomach with one hand, and the expression on her face was a little exaggerated.
Several soldiers outside the door looked at each other, and one of them glanced at Du Wen in the room, and said to one of the soldiers, "Take her and follow her." ”
The soldier followed Nian You to the latrine in the backyard, and the other three soldiers closed the door and guarded the outside.
Du Wen didn't know what to do, so she had to sit in the house and wait when she saw her leave.
After a while, Nian Yu returned. After entering the house, he ran in front of Du Wen and whispered: "Master, I have seen that next to the toilet in the backyard is the courtyard wall, and it will definitely be able to cross it with the master's martial arts." ”
Du Wen shook her head and said, "How could I leave you alone, besides, if I leave, they will follow with heavy troops." ”
Nian You hurriedly said: "Don't worry, master, their purpose is for you, as long as you get away, they don't need to be a maid for me." After speaking, he blinked naughtily, and said: "I have my own way to send the master away." ”
After speaking, he ran to the door again, bowed his head and bent over, opened the door and said, "It hurts, what's wrong with this stomach, I still have to go to the toilet." ”
The soldier outside the door glared at her and shouted, "Why do you have so many things, you go with me." ”
After running back and forth three times, the soldiers outside the door were a little bored, and after coming back for the third time, Nian You closed the door and took off his clothes, handed them to Du Wen, and said: "Master, change my clothes quickly, you can get out at this time." ”
Du Wen looked at Nian You, stood silent, and remembered that Nian You stepped forward to dress Du Wen widely.
"Master, leave quickly and take care of yourself." Nian You's little hands didn't stop, she put Du Wen's skirt off and put it on herself, put on her maid's clothes for Du Wen, pulled Du Wen to the table, and combed her hair.
"Nian You......" Du Wen turned around and took Nian You's little hand, calling softly, with tears in her eyes.
"Master, although Nian You has been following you for a short time, the master has been treating me as he has been, Nian You knows that there is nothing to repay, I just hope that there will be a day to come, and I can serve you again." As she spoke, Nian You also shed tears.
Du Wen choked and nodded, Nian You tied her hair in a bun, wiped away her tears, and said softly: "Take care of your master, don't forget Nian You." After speaking, he picked up Du Wen and walked to the door.
