Chapter 8: Take the life of the eldest lady

Su Qing asked her subordinates to clean up and watched the sky start to darken. Tell the carriage to be faster.

sat next to Su Yiling and comforted softly, but fortunately, she only lost some money, and her life and reputation were saved.

Lifting the curtain to see that it was getting closer and closer to the capital, the sky was completely dark.

Su Qing held Su Yiling's hand and trembled slightly, although she had expected that Su Xiangsi would not end well tonight. But some are too smooth.

It went incredibly.

The carriage suddenly shook Su Qing back to her senses, and Su Yiling staggered back and forth in the carriage.

I heard the shrill cries of the maids outside, followed by the sound of weapons clashing. Su Qing lifted the curtain with suspicion in her heart, and the uneasiness in her heart permeated her body.

There are bandits!

There was still half a pillar of incense at the gate of the city, but I didn't expect to be so bold.

The bandit's martial arts are even higher than the guards, and the guards and maids are knocked out without a few strokes. There was no intention to take their lives.

Su Yiling only felt that her body was limp and sat in the carriage, because she was afraid that her body would tremble badly. My mind went blank and I didn't know what to do.

Su Qing forced herself to stabilize her mind, the thieves had no intention of asking for people's lives, since it was easy to do it as long as they had money.

"Big brother, be merciful! I still have some money here, and I hope you will let my sister and me live. Su Qing's delicate face was full of undried tears, and her posture was delicate and pitiful.

The bandit snorted coldly and ignored it, and walked towards Su Qing directly. Although he was masked, he still felt the anger and ruthlessness of the bandit. The broadsword was pointed at her.

Su Qing was shocked to realize that this was wanting her life.

The calmness of the forced pretense was swept away, and he was really panicked, and he just wanted to escape quickly to save his life.

"Sister, let's run! When we reach the gates, we will be saved. Su Qing was also a little weak in her hands and feet, and dragged Su Yiling, who had already been frightened, to get out of the carriage.

Su Qing's words reminded her that survival is the most important thing. also riveted his strength and quickly jumped out of the carriage with the maid, and ran towards the city gate with Su Qing.

"Help!"

"Help!"

Several cries for help echoed on the official road, it was dark and night, and the road was already empty. As soon as the news of Mrs. Jin Anhou's encounter with the bandits spread, no one would leave the city at night. Now I can only see the torches lit at the gates of the city.

Su Yiling only felt hopeless, thinking that she had escaped. I didn't expect that fate would play tricks on me now, if I went to get the scriptures by hand, it would be faster and I would return to the city earlier. You won't be able to do that.

In the end, it was a girl who played the piano and calligraphy and painting in the boudoir all the year round, and she was already panting and puffing after running out of the boudoir all the time, and her face was flushed. His eyes were blurry, and he only felt white.

The slower she ran, the more she moved, her body wanted to fall forward, and Su Yiling only felt that her chest was out of breath.

The bandits chased after them slowly, and when they couldn't run, they surrounded them.

Su Qing gasped heavily, and her legs couldn't lift up as if they were tied to sandbags.

"At the feet of the prince, you dare to be so bold!" Su Qing's mouth was dry after running for too long, trying to delay a little time, and she just called for help hoping that someone would hear it.

The head of the thief knew that Su Qing was looking for a glimmer of life, and he didn't care, he was already meat on the board in his eyes: "Miss Su is a noble person, you saved the Hou Mansion last month and blocked our way to make a fortune." Today we are going to take your life! ”

Su Qing's eyes widened incredibly when she heard this, this is impossible!

Su Yiling looked at Su Qing with a little grievance, which affected her!

"If it's solved, it'll be your turn," the thief turned to look at Su Yiling behind Su Qing.

These words fell into the hearts of Su Qing and Su Yiling, and exploded.

One is unwilling.

A horror.

The thief lifted the sword glowing with cold light and stabbed it into Su Qing's chest without hesitation.

The two were shocked that the bandits really didn't give room for negotiation.

"Wait!" Su Qing screamed uncontrollably, trying to survive in one more ray. Hurriedly retreat with both hands and feet.

A sword pierces the air.

The bandit stabbed forward with a sword, but was hit by a dart and stabbed into the air again.

The sound of uniform steps is getting louder and louder, and there are people coming, and there are many of them.

Su Qing knew she was going to be saved.

The bandit turned around and saw King Yu's tall body sitting on a horse, with dozens of elite soldiers behind him.

He gestured to the other bandits behind him.

The bandits received the signal and raised their swords to attack the soldiers.

The leader of the bandits is facing the king of Yu.

King Yu drew his sword and turned over and dismounted to take over the move of the bandit leader, and in the blink of an eye, he made dozens of moves, and actually suppressed the momentum of the bandit leader.

Su Qing and Su Yiling helped each other to retreat farther away, for fear of affecting themselves.

King Yu was ecstatic the moment he appeared, and he already had admiration, but now he was moved to see his beloved come forward.

The bandits were a little afraid of the court, and the bandit leader blew a short whistle and didn't want to have too much entanglement with King Yu, so he shook King Yu away from the internal force and flew into the woods beside the road.

In the middle of the night, it was cold and difficult to chase, so King Yu asked people to check the wounded and repair the team. Walking quickly to the two of them, Jun's face was full of worry: "Let the two Miss Su be frightened, are there any injuries on their bodies?" ”

Su Qingmei's eyes were full of tears, and she stared at King Yu with all kinds of grievances, if it weren't for Su Yiling on the side, she would definitely throw herself into King Yu's arms.

"Fortunately, King Yu arrived in time, otherwise my sister and I would have been disastrous." At this moment, the cold wind was blowing, and Su Qing felt cold behind her clothes soaked with cold sweat.

"Thank you King Yu for coming to the rescue." Su Yiling bent her legs and saluted, and there was no panic on her face.

"The winter night is cold, get in the carriage first, and I will escort you back to the General's Mansion."

The maid helped Su Qing to take the lead in the carriage.

Su Yiling has experienced life and death escape, and now for the rest of her life, her body is a little prostration, and when she stepped on the edge of the carriage, her legs were weak and her body was crooked.

Thinking that he would fall to the ground, he reflexively closed his eyes.

Unexpectedly, a strong arm caught Su Yiling: "Be careful." ”

Su Yiling turned her head and saw that King Yu was close to Chi Qi, and the face of the girl in the capital who was fascinated was slightly distracted.

"Did you twist your ankle?" King Yu helped Su Yiling to stand firmly, with deep concern in his eyes.

Su Yiling only felt that her ears were a little red, shook her head, and hurriedly entered the carriage.

King Yu escorted the carriage back to the gate of General Su's mansion, and the housekeeper and the maid waited in front of the door and walked back and forth several times in a hurry.

Someone came to report that the two young ladies encountered bandits on the way back, which frightened the whole house.

The eldest lady Zhao and the second lady Song almost fainted, and the old lady Su did not stop waiting for the news of the two young ladies. These two young ladies are the treasures of the masters, and if something goes wrong, it will not be easy to be a subordinate.

Seeing the carriage glancing at the little maid behind him, he led the maid forward to greet him.

"Thank you King Yu for escorting, I will come to the door another day to thank you." The housekeeper bowed, and King Yu personally escorted him back with such a noble status, which he couldn't afford.

"No need to be polite, the two young ladies are frightened, take them back to the house to rest." King Yu waved his hand.

The maids carefully helped their young lady out of the carriage, but her clothes were dirty and her hair was messy, and the doctor didn't need to be invited.

"The eldest lady, the second miss, the two ladies are very anxious to learn the news, and they are waiting in the courtyard. Go back and wash up. ”

Su Qing looked at King Yu beside him gratefully, and the one with a prominent identity just nodded politely in response.

A little lost, thinking that my mother was waiting in the courtyard in a hurry, I couldn't care about anything else and hurriedly entered the house.

Su Yiling then paused, and when she was about to step into the gate, she turned her head and saw that King Yu had not left.

The corners of his mouth were obviously raised, and he bent his legs sideways and saluted before entering the house.

King Yu naturally also saw the smile under the lantern.

"You go and tell my grandmother that I'm fine, let her rest early, and go and greet her tomorrow." instructed the maid beside her, Su Yiling took the maid's hand stove and felt that her body was a little warm, and after being in the suburbs for so long, the clothes on her body could no longer withstand the cold.

The lights of the Youlan Courtyard were bright, and the maid was so quiet that she didn't dare to pant under the porch. The second lady Song was restless when she learned that the second lady was killed, and she also scolded a few maids who had no eyesight.

Su Yiling stepped into the house and felt the warm current of the whole body, and only then did she feel at ease at this moment.

"Ling'er!" Song couldn't hide his excitement, took Su Yiling's hands, and looked carefully from head to toe.

Su Yiling's nose was sore, and her tears fell uncontrollably: "Let the mother worry, my daughter is fine." ”

Song confirmed that her daughter was relieved only because her dress was dirty and her hair accessories were messed up, and ordered someone to prepare hot water for washing.

Seeing that her mother had already prepared meals and waiting for her heart to warm up, she was in danger, hungry and cold outside, and naturally thought of her mother in times of crisis.

She has spent so much effort on her and loves her so much, if she has an accident, her mother doesn't know how to grieve.

I told the Song family about the encounter all the way, and the more I listened, the more frightened I became, and I was attacked by gangsters twice along the way.

Moreover, Su Xiangsi's life and death are now uncertain.

There are some subtle expectations in my heart.

Su Yiling washed well, because of the exhaustion of physical strength and nervousness, as soon as she relaxed, exhaustion swept over, and she fell asleep after being stained with embroidered pillows.

Song stayed by the bedside and watched her daughter fall asleep before returning to her main house.

The look was a little gloomy, the maids didn't dare to look at it with their eyes down, and Mother Zhang made a look to let them retreat: "Miss is fine, Madame should rest early." ”

Song let Zhang's mother take off her coat and take off her hairpin: "If it weren't for the nosy people in the big house, Ling'er would have almost lost her life." ”

Mother Zhang's sharp eyes saw Su Hong come in with a curtain, and closed her mouth.

"Ling'er is back? Are you hurt? Su Hong's breath was a little unstable, and he comforted the old man in Mrs. Su's house, but he didn't care about anything when he heard the news.

The slender jade hand stroked his chest to ease his breath, and he was a little scolded: "Ling'er is fine, she has fallen asleep." The husband is anxious to be like this. ”

"Ling'er is our daughter, so I'm naturally nervous. It's okay, it's okay. I'll see her again tomorrow. "Song was quiet and lovely when he was young, and he was more intimate and gentle when he was middle-aged.

Gently hugged Song: "Let you worry about it, it's good that you are here." ”

The Song family leaned on Su Hong's arms and told him what happened to Su Yiling in a soft voice. The more ordinary the tone of voice he said, the more Su Hong thought about it.

Su Qing returned to Qingmei Courtyard and heard Zhao's low sobs outside the house.

"Mother." Choked up, although the plan was correct, I didn't expect an accident.

Zhao cried bitterly, hugged Su Qing into his arms, and did not check that there was no wound on his body before falling a stone in his heart.

"Did the plan succeed?" The thick expectation in her eyes and the eagerness in her words made Su Qing a little uncomfortable.

Su Qing nodded: "According to the plan, there was no mistake, but I didn't expect to meet the bandits halfway back, but fortunately, King Yu rescued me in time." ”

Zhao understands the danger, her daughter is the pride of her life, and if something goes wrong, it will kill her.

After comforting him a few times, he ordered someone to prepare hot water for Su Qing to wash before returning to the main house.

I couldn't hold back the excitement in my heart, as if I heard the news of Su Xiangsi's murder in the next moment.

Su Qing cleaned up and lay on the bed, although she felt tired, she couldn't sleep, and she just ate a few pastries, the more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became, and the plan must have been known by others.

In the end, I couldn't resist sleepiness and fell asleep, still frowning in my sleep, extremely uneasy.
