Chapter Forty-Eight: Discovery
It's also stop-and-go along the way, I've been looking for opportunities to escape, using various reasons to delay the trip, but I don't want Sang Ma this girl to look at me closely, except for sleeping, staying by my side almost all day, it's really a headache. On the fifth day of leaving Tongyuguan, I couldn't bear it anymore, and now I don't leave, I'm afraid that I won't be able to leave if I want to go in the future.
In the middle of the night, I thought that everyone should be asleep, so I sneaked up to get up and pack my baggage, Sang Ma often follows me on weekdays, if I find me packing up alone, I am afraid that I have to think more, and now running away is the most important thing.
I hid the map handkerchief in my close-fitting place, and took a few gold leaves and put them on the soles of my shoes, I have never lived alone in this ancient world, if I really meet a robber or something on the road, I hope those leaves can save my life.
I also packed one or two pieces of clothes, enough to change and wash, bracelets, rings, all safely worn on my hands, as well as a compass, a golden hairpin and that purse, all of which they gave me, I want to take them one by one, and I think it is a nostalgia.
I just did these things in the dark, and I was still a little scared in my heart.
found that I was gone, and Huang Fuchen would only be angry with Liangzhou, and he shouldn't blame the people who accompanied him, after all, I am the master, and they will be blamed for lax care at most, so it shouldn't be a big deal.
These days when I lived in the post station, because the grain and grass were not enough to supply, so I was delayed for a few days, and I also took advantage of the time to transfer the county, which was not big, but it was also prosperous. If I escape, I can change to another inn and stop for one night before making plans, even if they want to search, I am afraid that there will be no one or two days, so many inns will not be able to be found.
With such a thorough plan, I was ready to leave, and on the table was the letter I left for Sang Ma and Bai Zhi, with only four words, "Don't read it." The two of them have followed me for more than six years, and it is false to say that there is no relationship, and if the two girls know that I left them alone, they will definitely be very worried, and leaving them a word is just to let them rest assured.
As soon as the door opened, before I stepped out, I felt that I was dragged by something on the burden on my back, thinking that I was accidentally hanging on the door, and I couldn't pull it hard, so scared that my legs were weak and I was in a cold sweat, I didn't meet a ghost. was about to turn around to light the lamp, but he didn't want to hear a choked voice, "Master, don't you want to be mulberry?" ”
Is it mulberry? Didn't she sleep? Is it the same as me, pretending? Knowing that it was the person who held him, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, took two steps back, and closed the door. I walked to the table and lit the candle, but she didn't speak beside me, just cried quietly, which was unbearable.
"Don't cry, I'm forced to do this." Took her hand and sat her down, wiped her tears with Juanpa, this girl came out all the way, like a person in water, crying endless tears.
She sobbed and stammered, "Master... Yes... What's... As a last resort, for... Why don't you tell me? ”
"I told you what's the use, I don't want to go back to the palace, I've had enough of those days." sighed heavily, and the helpless sourness in his heart surged up again.
She was puzzled and looked at me suspiciously, "Is the palace bad?" That's the glory and wealth that slaves can't envy. The emperor and the crown prince treat their masters very well, why do they want to leave? ”
"Sang Ma......" I looked at her, and stopped talking, yes, what else do I find fault about this kind of day when I don't have to worry about food and clothing, but I'm really unwilling, unwilling to be confined in that exquisite birdcage for the rest of my life, I looked at her, and finally said what I thought, "I want to be free, even if I don't have fine clothes and food, even if I work hard, I just don't want to live all day long, you know?" ”
She nodded as if she didn't understand, shook her head again, the tears stopped, but her voice was still a little hoarse after crying, "Is it okay for the master to bring the slave and maid?" Let the slave and maid always follow you and serve you. ”
What the? Take her with you? I'm already too busy to take care of myself, and now I have someone else, if something really happens, how should I explain to her father and mother, how to explain to my conscience.
Seeing that I was embarrassed, she hurriedly said, "The slave and maid don't eat much, a mouthful of porridge is enough, and the slave and maid can also work, embroider and do rough work, and will not cause trouble to the master." ”
Sang Ma, why don't you make me feel distressed, does she think I'm afraid that she will cause me trouble? I'm just afraid of hurting her.
"Sang Ma, you stay and follow them back to the palace, you are still a big palace maid, with the prince here, he will not let you suffer, and the emperor will not blame you, at most you will be convicted of lax care, not to death, but now if you follow me, you will definitely die if you are caught." I rubbed her loose hair, smooth and shiny, and her face covered by black and green silk was so beautiful, this stupid girl, how could I bear to let her suffer with me!
"No, the slave and the maid only have the master, and the first master of the slave and the maid is you, and the good slave and maid of the master and the slave are all in mind, and in this life, you are only recognized as a master." Her voice was a little loud and a little hurried, and the crystal that had just stopped was like the water of a river.
"Oh, hey, don't cry, don't cry, let me think." I couldn't bear to see her crying, I really didn't hurt her in vain.
"Listen to me when you go out."
"Huh? Be! ”
"In the future, sisters will be commensurate, don't slave the master, it's easy to expose your identity."
"Uh-huh!"
"I will eat a bite to eat in the future, and you will not go hungry."
"Hmm!"
"If you want to live incognito, maybe you have to hide."
"It's okay, just follow the master."
……
"You answered so briskly and didn't you think about it?" This time it was my turn to be dumbfounded, wouldn't it be a problem for her to have so many questions?
When she heard me say this, she finally smiled, "Whatever the master says, the slave and the maid are willing to listen." ”
What else can I say about such an answer, I can only smile and shake my head, and instruct, "Then tomorrow night, I will pack your luggage for a day, and we will leave tomorrow night." ”
