Chapter 81: Mountain Bandits
"Miss, it seems to be a mountain bandit!" Yan Yan looked at Jiang Xiaoyu, although her lips trembled a little, she still barely maintained her composure, "Miss, we'll be fine, right?" β
"Forgot what I told you? Rest assured, it's all in my expectation! Jiang Xiaoyu smiled and patted Yan Yan's shoulder, "You should just watch a martial arts drama, don't you like those fighting scenes the most on weekdays?" β
"This can be compared to singing!" Yan Yan stomped her feet anxiously, and poked her head out of the car window to check the situation outside.
I saw a group of fierce men, with big knives in their hands, rushing down from the mountain, a total of one or twenty people, shouting foul language, making the horses neigh, screaming, and the coachman fell from the car to the ground.
"Leave your possessions with the women, and spare you from death! Otherwise, you want to look good! β
Because I didn't expect that there would be such fierce mountain bandits not far from the capital, and there were only three people escorting the courtyard on the road!
I saw one person shouting: "You go first, let's break the back!" Immediately, the two guards copied out the guys and shouted and went towards the mountain bandits.
The other person turned over into the carriage and ran away first in the carriage where the eldest lady was located, and Jiang Xiaoyu's carriage, the coachman and the little maid had already fled in fright, and they were alone in a dangerous environment.
Yan Yan's face began to be a little bad, swallowed her saliva, grabbed Jiang Xiaoyu's arm and said, "Miss, it's all gone, let's run too!" You might be able to escape by running now! β
Jiang Xiaoyu glanced at Yan Yan's thin arms and legs, and said with a faint smile: "Do you think you can outrun those bandits?" It's just more embarrassing! I've already put you at ease, they can't help us! β
In this matter, the two guards were still fighting with the mountain bandits, and the two of them were also loyal to their duties, outnumbered, and soon they were all colored. Anyway, they are also from Shangshu Mansion, and their skills should not be underestimated, a few mountain bandits stayed behind to continue to deal with them, while the rest of the people came towards Jiang Xiaoyu and the carriage where they were!
A mountain bandit rudely lifted the curtain, looked at Yan Yan who was trembling inside, and Jiang Xiaoyu, who had a calm and flat face, snorted and said, "! It took a long time to make a good look, and it wasn't enough for the brothers to be one night! Look at what's in store! β
"Just a cart of souvenirs, not worth much!"
"Bring these two girls back first, so as not to cause any extraneous branches!"
Someone was about to get into the car and pull Jiang Xiaoyu out, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he was about to grab Jiang Xiaoyu's arm, Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes flashed with a trace of coldness, grabbed the man's wrist, and slammed it, and the man suddenly let out a scream like killing a pig.
"Lang Lang Qiankun, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the blue sky and the white sun, you dare to commit murder, and you are really impatient!" Jiang Xiaoyu said coldly.
"When you die, you dare to be hard-mouthed, come on! Come on, brothers, kill this woman! The man shouted with a twisted face.
Immediately several other mountain bandits brandished a big knife and slashed towards the carriage, at this time, a galloping sound of horses' hooves came, the momentum was amazing, those few mountain bandits did not know what the identity of the other party was, whether the officers and soldiers were coming, they had already had the idea of retreating, and did not want to stay here any longer.
"Grab these two girls back to the cottage and withdraw!"
Someone immediately wanted to catch Jiang Xiaoyu back in the carriage, but she kicked her to the root of her life, covered her lower body and fell to the ground, rolling in pain.
As the sound of the horse's hooves got closer and closer, several people did not dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly ran away.
"Brothers, it's time for us to show our prestige!" Only the neighing of horses was heard, and one of them grabbed the reins of the horse and waved his arm and shouted, "Take this group of bandits, and we will also be majestic!" β
Yan Yan heard the shout, lifted the curtain and peeked outside, and whispered, "Miss, it seems that someone has come to save us!" What a handsome boy! β
Seeing that it was not from the government, but a group of young men in brocade clothes, the group of mountain bandits immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and one of them smiled with a horizontal knife: "Just now, I felt that I didn't have much property on this trip, and I didn't dare to be reconciled, but now it's okay, and a group of fat sheep is here, let us slaughter!" Brothers, take down this group of gentlemen and ask their family for ransom! β
"Kill!" When the group of mountain bandits saw a group of powerless little white faces coming, they immediately became excited and killed them again.
Ling Huyao got out of the carriage with a group of his friends, took out his accessories that he usually used for no other purpose than to scare people, and entangled with the mountain bandits.
Jiang Xiaoyu lifted the curtain, looked at the movement outside, and saw that although the teenagers looked thin and weak, they were quite handsome, and they actually injured several mountain bandits in a row.
"Da Zhou originally won the world from horseback, although these noble children are noisy and lustful on weekdays, they still haven't lost the ability of their ancestors, and they can still have such blood in the face of such bandits, not bad!"
Yan Yan was finally relieved, patted her chest and said, "Thank God, the divine soldiers descended from the sky, and there was no danger!" β
The group of mountain bandits did not expect that these teenagers would be so brave, and several people were injured in a row, and the rest were afraid and had already begun to run towards the mountain.
"Poor Kou Mo Chase!" Jiang Xiaoyu shouted, "There must be a trap on the way up the mountain, you are not good at this, and if you chase it down, you will inevitably suffer!" You just hold the wounded, and the rest of the time should be a matter for the officers and soldiers! β
Ling Huyao wiped the blood on his face, raised his head and walked towards Jiang Xiaoyu proudly: "Listen to my cousin-in-law, just don't chase it!" It's almost late, cousin, are you okay? β
"I'm fine, you're here at the right time!" Jiang Xiaoyu patted Ling Huyao's shoulder appreciatively, "You impressed me today, I didn't expect that in addition to stealing chickens and dogs, you can also eliminate harm for the sake of your name!" β
"Praise me if you praise me, why be sarcastic!" Ling Huyao beckoned to his brothers, "Brothers, come and meet my cousin!" β
"I've seen the future princess!" Several people frolicked and greeted Jiang Xiaoyu, revealing the appearance of some handsome teenagers.
Jiang Xiaoyu said to Yan Yan again: "Prepare some medicine and gauze!" β
"If you have any injuries, treat them as soon as possible!" Jiang Xiaoyu jumped out of the car, walked quickly to the side of the two injured nurses, squatted down and said, "Can you two still support it?" β
"Thank you for your concern, I can still hold on!" The nurse gritted his teeth and said.
Jiang Xiaoyu checked the injuries of the two, applied medicine to them to stop the bleeding, and treated their injuries before turning his head and saying, "Come over here and help them into the carriage, they are very seriously injured and need to go back for treatment as soon as possible!" β
"Go! Just go! Ling Huyao hurriedly pushed the two of them over and helped the two nurses to the car, and then rushed to the direction of the capital.
Jiang Xiaoyu asked a few people to escort the mountain bandits to the Yamen, and she took Yan Yan and Ling Huyao to rush back slowly.
"I really asked your cousin-in-law to be right, I didn't expect the eldest lady to really make arrangements on the road, but how did my cousin-in-law know that there were mountain bandits here, and let me bring someone to follow on the road?" Ling Hu Yao asked suspiciously.
"Guess, but this paragraph is a little uneven, I have heard about it, so I took precautions early!" Jiang Xiaoyu thought for a while and said, "I don't want to leave the capital here, dare to block the road and rob here, if these mountain bandits have no background, how dare they be so presumptuous!" His people occupy the mountain as the king, and the nearby government will not be ignorant, but they will not see the action, which can only show that those people not only have a background, but also an official background! β
"It doesn't matter what his background is, since I am in charge of this matter, I will definitely put that bandit den to an end, and no longer let these bandits be a disaster for the people!" Ling Hu Yao said awe-inspiringly, "After escorting you back, I will go and ask the second prince for orders to arrest all those bandits!" β
"I'm afraid I can't wait for you to be majestic!" Jiang Xiaoyu smiled faintly.
"Mysterious, what do you mean, but you understand!" Ling Hu Yao said dissatisfiedly, "Don't you look down on me!" β
Jiang Xiaoyu hurriedly waved his hand: "I have no intention of looking down on you, I just thought that those mountain bandits did not dare to come forward before because they were afraid of the backers behind them, and now they want to kidnap the daughter of Shangshu and the fiancΓ©e of the prince, can the government still sit idly by?" It's just that once things get out of the way, those people don't have to live, and if I'm not mistaken, whether or not they can really kidnap me up the mountain, they will be wiped out! β
"If you don't say it earlier, if you say it earlier, you won't let them escape back, if you are killed, how can you find out who is behind the scenes?" Ling Hu Yao said anxiously.
"Don't be impatient!" Jiang Xiaoyu waved his hand, "First of all, you have to watch the mountain bandits who were captured alive, they still know some inside information, and secondly, ...... It is already important that they are no longer troubled by the township, and other things will be studied in detail later! β
Several people rode horses and hurried to the direction of the capital in a hurry, looking at the dust in front of them from afar, looking fixedly, but they saw Zhao Ling riding a horse galloping, with anxious faces.
He also spotted the traces of the three people in front of him, hurriedly reined in the reins of the horse, and waited for the three to approach with a calm face.
"Cousin, why are you here?" Ling Hu Yao shouted happily.
When Zhao Ling waited for Jiang Xiaoyu to approach, he grabbed her by the arm and grabbed her to his carriage, carefully checked her, and made her safe, before he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Not long ago, the people of Jiangfu rushed back and said that you were a mountain bandit on the road, I rushed here when I heard the news, you are fine, I am relieved!" β
"It's just a few mountain bandits, what can I do? Aren't you so worried that you don't believe me? Jiang Xiaoyu wrapped his arms around Zhao Ling's neck to stabilize his figure, "You have always been Mount Tai jumping in front of you without changing your face, but today you have changed color because of this trivial matter, and you have made a demeanor!" β
"That's your business, how can I treat it with a normal heart!" Zhao Ling said, "All in all, it's good that you can come back safely, I won't give up on this matter!" β
"My cousin-in-law was able to return to your cousin's arms safely, it is my credit!" Ling Huyao patted his chest and said triumphantly, and then looked aggrieved again, "Cousin, you are too heavy and light, I have been for a long time, and you can look at me better than me!" β
Zhao Ling pointed the horsewhip at Ling Huyao with a gloomy face, and the latter's face immediately changed in fright: "What? β
"Credit to you!" Zhao Ling suddenly laughed and said, "It's worthy of being my brother, I didn't mistake you!" β
"You're scared me to death, I'm going to beat me up!"
