Chapter Seventy-Four: Salvation
"Oh my god!" Su Jiao looked at the bright long knife and slid past his legs, so frightened that his heart almost skipped a beat.
"Madame!" Hibiscus shouted anxiously, and pounced with Diecui Murong. The tall man at the head took advantage of the chaos and gently slapped the knife-wielding man on the head.
"Bastard, who told you to really kill you, you can't be killed."
"Yes." The man felt a grievance in Ma's heart, and obediently took a few steps back.
But as soon as the hibiscus pounced, the gangsters instantly narrowed the encirclement, and the few people in the middle were surrounded by water, and Su Jiao's heart was alarmed: Decline!
"Who among you is Su Jiao? Although we are thieves, thieves also have a way, we only need Su Jiao's life, and the others can go. ”
Seeing that the girls in the circle were trembling and shrunk together, the tall man led by him stepped forward very proudly and pointed the knife forward.
Xu Ruru gave the knife a few feet long, and she trembled with fright, but this would be very righteous and did not really push Su Jiao out, but turned her head.
"Where are you? Why do you speak with such a big accent? ”
Da Gao was stunned, he couldn't help but be annoyed, and he was about to rush over, "What do you care about me?" Since you refuse to cooperate, then blame us for not showing mercy. ”
"Ahh Xu Ruru's heart jumped suddenly, and she hurriedly closed her eyes and threw herself on Su Jiao's shoulder, but there was no imaginary pain, but there were other people's screams outside.
"Wake up, someone has come to our rescue." Feeling a warm breath on her shoulder, with a little bit of wetness, Su Jiao was a little worried about whether she was rubbing saliva on her clothes.
"What?" Xu Ruru woke up with a personal vendetta on Su Jiao's head, and when she opened her eyes suddenly, she found that it was Xu Ruzhu who brought someone over on horseback, and she was entangled with those pictures, and she was almost moved to tears.
"Fifth brother!"
"You come over for me, rush up at this time, you won't be afraid of being injured by mistake." Su Jiao hurriedly dragged back Xu Ruru, who was full of surprise, very curious about how Concubine Liang, who was known for her gentleness and demureness, could give birth to such a girl.
"Oh, good." Xu Ruru listened, only then did she stand still, and then at this time, the palace maids and eunuchs who were fleeing in all directions saw the situation reversed, and before they could run out of the pomegranate forest, they gathered back one after another.
"You bastards, you still know to come back, and when this princess reports to her father, I have to reward you with a hard meal!"
Xu Ruru thrust her waist angrily, her mouth was merciless, and those palace maids and eunuchs knelt on the ground one after another, "I still hope that the princess will forgive her sins, and the servants will no longer dare." ”
When the words landed, Luo Ying gently pulled Xu Ruru's sleeve, Xu Ruru glanced at her, and then reluctantly looked away, "That's it, after I go back, this princess will clean you up." ”
Over there, Su Jiao was full of doubts as to why Xu Ruzhu came so timely, he and Xu Ruru had just been surrounded by people, and he immediately brought someone over.
And Xu Ruzhu seemed to be aware of Su Jiao's suspicious gaze, and handed over the gangster in his hand to his subordinates to deal with, and came over while putting away the long sword.
"I never thought that His Royal Highness would pass by here, and he would also meet Mrs. Xiao, it was really fate."
"Heh, sort of, don't the five princes deal with those villains?"
Su Jiao smiled reluctantly, and then said hello to Xu Ruzhu, like a crow's mouth, those gangsters saw the fireworks signal released in the distance, and fled away.
Xu Ruzhu's men didn't have time to react, and when they came back to their senses, they chased those people, so they put a row of smoke bombs behind them, and when the smoke cleared, no one was caught.
Seeing this, Su Jiao was embarrassed and wanted to laugh and quickly turned her head, so as not to look so gloating and easily offend people.
Xu Ruzhu's face was also a little indifferent, and after the few people under him regathered, he gave Su Jiao an embarrassed hand, "The people in His Highness's hands are naturally not as heroic and good at fighting as Lord Xiao's subordinates, but fortunately, Mrs. Xiao is fine." ”
"Hmph, that's it, if it were the third brother, he would have been arrested a long time ago." As she was talking, Xu Ruru next to her seemed to be angry and ignored, and blurted out the truth very unceremoniously, which made Su Jiao almost laugh out loud, and for the first time felt that it was a good thing to borrow Xu Rulie's limelight.
Su Jiao coughed lightly, and finally restrained her emotions, but Xu Ruzhu still noticed it, and couldn't help but feel that her face was dull, and then gave Xu Ruru an indifferent and disgusted look.
"You are embarrassed to say that your father intends to let you stay in the palace to study etiquette and law, but you came here, if something happens, Your Highness will see how you explain to your father."
"My father also said that it is naturally important to study documents, but it is also necessary to combine work and rest, otherwise the five emperor brothers are here today, what do they want to do?" Xu Ruru was not convinced, and muttered a few words confidently, but after facing Xu Ruzhu's eyes, she had to bow her head obediently.
"Your Highness just happened to be passing by, if it weren't for the fact that you happened to be patrolling here with someone and bumped into you, do you think you would still have the life to talk to His Highness like this?"
Concubine Liang is different from Concubine Xian, she has never liked to compete for favor, and now that she is getting older, she is more likely to be ignored by people in the palace.
Just like the queen suppresses Concubine Xian, Concubine Xian looks down on Concubine Liang's food chain, Xu Ruzhu can't treat Xu Rulie well, but there is no need to treat Xu Ruru so politely.
What's more, Xu Ruru is a dignified princess, but she always tries to hug Xu Rulie's thighs, and whoever she is, I'm afraid she will look down on her.
However, Su Jiao can understand a little, after all, Xu Ruru is alone in the palace, if she doesn't want to find someone to rely on, it can only be more miserable than the original book and her relatives.
After thinking about it, looking at Xu Ruru's aggrieved little head, still a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl who had just reached the end of the year, Su Jiao suddenly felt a little more sympathetic in her heart, and waved her hand to come out to play a round.
"That's it, the princess is still young, she has no taboo words, and her words are not measured, and the five princes don't have to take it to heart."
As soon as Su Jiao was paired, Xu Ruzhu's attitude suddenly changed quietly, "What Mrs. Xiao said is very true, Xu Ruru is young and ignorant, I hope she shouldn't have said anything, which makes Mrs. Xiao unhappy." ”
"Hmph." Xu Ruzhu's voice landed, and Xu Ruru couldn't help but snort softly from her nose.
Su Jiao knew that Xu Ruzhu was not talking about herself, so she didn't pay too much attention to him, and nodded lightly at him, "Naturally not." ”
"That's good." Hearing this, Xu Ruzhu turned his gaze to Xu Ruru, and his tone became stern, "The matter has been resolved, why don't you go back quickly." ”
"Yes." Xu Ruru listened, puffed out her cheeks angrily, and was unhappy, so she had to obey obediently.
With Xu Ruzhu's words, those palace maids and eunuchs who came out with Xu Ruru were also relieved, and they all hugged Xu Ruru and hurriedly left here.
A large number of people left here, the pomegranate forest suddenly quieted a lot, Su Jiao waited for the people to finish, looking at Xu Ruzhu who was still standing in front of her, very embarrassed.
"Well, thank you to the five princes for their help today, otherwise Her Royal Highness and I are afraid that it will be miserable, in order to show gratitude, the five princes are willing to appreciate their faces and have a light meal together?"
When Xu Ruzhu heard this, he naturally didn't agree, "If this is the case, then there will be work." ”
Su Jiao smiled lightly, "Please." ”
Since Xu Ruzhu came on horseback, and Mu Hibiscus was responsible for driving the carriage, Xu Ruzhu rode on the horse and talked to Su Jiao through the window.
"When I was wandering around here for a while, I knew that there was a restaurant called Yipinxiang in the west of the city, and the dishes in it were the best, so I wanted to be able to match the appetite of the five princes."
In order to facilitate speaking, Su Jiao simply hung up the curtain, and Xu Ruzhu slowed down the horse's pace as much as possible, so as to be on the same plane as Su Jiao.
"His Royal Highness first toured the border, eating and sleeping in the open, and he was never picky, Mrs. Xiao herself thought it was good."
"The fifth prince is really polite, born in a royal family, there is no squeamishness of the superior, it is really admirable." Su Jiao nodded, and suddenly lowered her eyes and said as if she didn't care.
"It's just that I really don't know what happened to the five princes coming out today, thanks to the five princes coming in time, these gangsters can actually guess that I will come to the pomegranate forest to play, it is already a coincidence, the five princes came more coincidentally."
When the words landed, the atmosphere between the two people suddenly became a little delicate, Xu Ruzhu squinted his eyes, but he was not in a hurry to answer.
"His Royal Highness has not been back for a long time, and the scenery of this piece when he was a teenager, His Royal Highness still misses it very much, and specially brought his subordinates over to take a look, as Mrs. Xiao just said, this is indeed a coincidence."
"It's just that why do these people know that Mrs. Xiao is here to be here and ambush here, could it be that Lord Xiao offended someone outside, so they want to take revenge on Mrs. Xiao." Xu Ruzhu chuckled and threw the question back to Su Jiao.
Su Jiao raised her hand and gently stroked the broken hair on her sideburns, and Mu Rong consciously blocked the window, covering Xu Ruzhu's sight.
"Her Royal Highness the princess is also here unexpectedly today, how can the five princes be so sure that they are specifically here to trouble me?"
"Mrs. Xiao, I'm afraid you haven't forgotten, it's clear that you just said it yourself." When Xu Ruzhu heard this, he chuckled, not knowing what Su Jiao meant.
"Yes, I forgot, but maybe I was wrong, those gangsters didn't threaten to find anyone, in case they wanted to kidnap the princess, then this matter will be a big problem."
Su Jiao smiled, her eyes narrowed, and Xu Ruzhu was very confused. "Princess...... How can this be, these people are bold, who dares to attack the princess, wouldn't it be against me Daze. ”
"So, the five princes identified them just to take revenge on me and Huai'an?" After hearing this, Su Jiao looked straight over and asked Xu Ruzhu to subconsciously turn around.
