Chapter 362: Accident
Lin Jinxiu actually knew that Shen Kuo was not what he seemed, in fact, he still cared about Xianggong very much, Lin Jinxiu sighed slightly, but Tang Jiu beside him was a little surprised, "Lady, is there something wrong?" ”
Lin Jinxiu smiled and shook his head, don't say these words to Xianggong.
"Xianggong, the carriage we hired hasn't arrived yet?" Because it is far away from Qingcheng, it is impossible for two people to go back, and there is no convenient means of transportation in this era, so they can only hire a carriage and pull two people back, well, I just hope that there will be no forks on the way, I don't know why, Lin Jinxiu's heart suddenly rose a bad premonition. It's like there's no going back.
Unless the sky falls, it's better to go back, anyway, go back and explain to your father and mother that there is always some stability in my heart, as long as the things are explained, I will come back, of course, if the prince is not willing to come back, then stay in Qingcheng.
Let's take one step at a time, Lin Jinxiu thought.
Looking at the empty door of the inn, Tang Jiu frowned slightly, a little curious for a while, it was obviously said that it was this hour, come here and wait, why hasn't the carriage arrived yet? So he said to the lady, "I don't know when it will arrive, let's wait here for a while." ”
That was all there was to it, so the two of them sat on the stone steps at the door and waited.
After about a quarter of an hour, the carriage was late, Lin Jinxiu glanced at the driver who was driving the car with some confusion, and the man saw the two and said apologetically to the two, "I'm really sorry, there are a lot of cars jammed on the road for some things today, and I can't come ......for a while."
"But what happened?" Lin Jinxiu was a little curious, and subconsciously asked, why are there so many cars on the road, logically speaking, it is relatively early at this time, the sky is hazy, there should not be so many people.
Tang Jiu obviously thought of this as well, so the two of them who were also curious looked at the coachman curiously as they got into the car.
The coachman was slightly relieved when he saw that the two people did not blame them in the slightest, and then explained, "I don't know what's going on, it's at the gate outside the city, well, there are a lot of soldiers stationed next to the wonton stall at the gate, I heard that someone cut and injured people......"
Lin Jinxiu and Tang Jiu glanced at each other, but they had nothing to do with themselves, so the two of them didn't care much, so they didn't say anything to the car, "Then let's hurry up, it's better to hurry up." ”
The coachman nodded yes again and again, so he drove forward, and when he walked to the city gate, Lin Jinxiu lifted the curtain and looked outside, only to see that the wonton stall that was still eating there yesterday had disappeared, and there seemed to be a pool of blood in the place of the wonton stall, and a few scattered officers and soldiers seemed to be looking for something, what happened here? Yesterday, the old man looked very harmonious, but he didn't look like a wicked person. Thinking of this, Lin Jinxiu couldn't help but ask the coachman curiously, "What's going on here?" ”
"I don't know, I also heard from others, saying that the old man's son was wrongfully imprisoned, and the old man waited for the opportunity to avenge his son, so he has been guarding here, and this morning it seems that he waited for the man, and directly took a knife and cut the man, so the old man was also arrested by the officers and soldiers......"
The coachman chattered while hurrying, well, there was no beginning or end, and he didn't say it very clearly, so he scratched his head and said a little embarrassed, "I really don't know much about this matter, I don't know what happened." ”
Lin Jinxiu nodded and didn't say anything, but she didn't know why she always felt that this thing was weird, but after all, it had little to do with her, so she didn't ask anymore.
For almost the whole day, both men were on their way, and in the evening, the coachman, who was familiar with the road, looked for an inn by the roadside.
It's noisy and bustling here, it shouldn't be a place where gangsters haunt, but the two of them still kept an eye on it, and subconsciously checked the surrounding environment, men, women and children, all kinds of characters, but I don't know why Tang Jiu felt that something was wrong, the man who had just passed by him looked like he should be a businessman, but why did he have a knife pinned to his waist? Although it was very hidden, because Tang Jiu was in contact with the knife all year round, he could see it at a glance.
So he quietly moved the lady and told her to be careful, and he did not eat dinner in the inn, but the dry food he had brought with him.
Although the shopkeeper said that there were free meals delivered.
"Is there something wrong with Xianggong?" Lin Jinxiujin thought about taking out a piece of silver to test whether it was poisonous, but the silver did not turn black, is it wrong to show it on TV? Or these meals are not poisonous at all, but why don't you let them eat them?
Seeing the lady's movements, Tang Jiu smiled, "I don't know, I always feel that there is always a feeling of uneasiness in my heart, it's better to be careful, after all, in this wilderness, you can sleep tonight, lady, I'll just stay here, and I'll rest for a while when I'm sure it's really okay." ”
Hearing Xianggong's words, Lin Jinxiu wanted to say something, but looking at his insistent expression, he nodded and lay down obediently.
Tang Jiu looked at the door fixedly, sitting at the table, in order not to let himself fall asleep, he also drank tea cup by cup, after all, after a day of hurrying, his body was extremely tired, even if Tang Jiu insisted harder, this eyelid still couldn't stop dozing.
Seeing that the first half of the night had passed like this, Tang Jiu was just about to relax his vigilance when he heard someone's cry for help outside the door, "It's on fire, it's on fire......
Tang Jiu almost didn't think about it, he ran directly to the side of the bed and picked up Lin Jinxiu and ran out, but when he ran outside the door, he found that it was the firewood stacked up, and then people hurried to put out the fire, because there was more hay, so the fire was relatively large and vigorous, and it was almost busy until the morning before the fire was slowly extinguished.
So by the time of the next day, Tang Jiu had been asleep even when he was in a hurry, although it was very bumpy, and Lin Jinxiu could see that Xiang Gong was sleeping extremely uncomfortable, and sighed helplessly in his heart, alas, is Xiang Gong suspicious?
However, Xiang Gong has a sentence that is very right, be careful when you go out, especially when Xiang Gong's identity is so sensitive, you should be even more careful.
Although he slept in the middle of the night yesterday, he still wanted to sleep a little now, Lin Jinxiu glared, he was still holding on for a while, guarding Xianggong well, and let him rest for a while.
