Chapter 176: Caught the Wrong Person
However, Bai Yulan didn't look worried at all, smiled, and said, "Why are you so worried? Even Madame and I have never been so worried. ”
The lewd thief was injured, and Xu Yashi's whipping method, she had also seen it, and she swung a whip on her body, like torture, where ordinary people can withstand it, if you don't die, you have to lose your skin.
The thief was wounded, and even if he did, he could be subdued.
"We still have the people and horses we have brought with us, but it doesn't matter, if it's late, we won't be able to move around the capital at will." Bai Yulan urged.
Green thought about this, so he had to follow Bai Yulan and go out of the mansion of the household department Shangshu together.
"The Hou Ye didn't tell his wife where he had gone before, if they could be together, they could also have a companion, so that Mrs. wouldn't let her go back to the Hou Mansion alone, and she would be easily poisoned by those people." Seeing the dim night outside, Green could only distinguish the road by the moonlight, and felt a little frightened even more.
In the capital, there have been many troublemakers recently, not only the lewd thief, but also the prostitute who heard the conversation between the Hou Ye and his wife, it seems that yesterday, there was another person who picked up people's skins......
Suddenly, a bird's cry came from outside, which startled the green and gave goosebumps.
Bai Yulan saw Lu Yi's startled appearance, and couldn't help but laugh and said, "Are you so scared? ”
Lu Yi nodded hurriedly and said, "That's not ordinary fear, madam, you, your heart is too big." ”
"Groom, drive faster." Bai Yulan suddenly spoke up, urging like this: "The little girl feels that she is afraid of meeting some bad people, and she will feel safer when she returns to the Hou Mansion earlier." ”
After saying that, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle again.
Lu Yi knew that Mrs. was laughing at her, and couldn't help but pout, she was clearly doing it for Mrs. 's good, and she even felt that she was making a fuss.
She went to take Bai Yulan's arm, and said in a loud voice: "Madam, I'm not afraid, although, although, the slave maid is a little afraid, but doesn't Madam think that it is easy to encounter life-threatening problems here?" ”
This big night, Madame has met several times.
Just as he said this, the carriage suddenly seemed to stumble, and Bai Yulan's face instantly darkened. Can you really meet this bandit today? Bai Yulan's heart also suddenly became worried.
Suddenly a hand stretched out from outside the curtain of the carriage, and immediately afterwards, a man dressed in black rushed up, and the night was dark here, and the man was wearing a veil, so that he could not see his face at all.
Clinker, the man must not be able to see the situation inside the carriage, so he went to hold Luyi's neck, leaned against Luyi's back, and said, "Talk well later." ”
When this person spoke, his voice was obviously about to take a few breaths, although Bai Yulan couldn't see it, but the tip of his nose could inevitably smell some delicate smell of blood, it seemed that this person was seriously injured?
Thinking of the figure he saw when he was eating wine at the Tobe Shangshu just now, he couldn't help but want to connect these two people.
Not long after the man came up, the coachman outside began to drive the carriage straight away.
Lu Yi didn't dare to speak, and after the man in black stabilized, he also found that there were two people in the sedan chair, and he couldn't figure out who was the master and who was the servant, and he was a little annoyed.
Not long after this person came up, there was the sound of officers and soldiers searching everywhere with torches, and Bai Yulan's heart was cold.
Sure enough, those officers and soldiers searched the traveling carriage, intercepted it outside, and said sharply: "Who is inside?" ”
The torches outside faintly lit up the pitch-black carriage, and Bai Yulan could also see a little bit of this person's appearance, and the man also realized that he had caught it wrong, so he threatened: "If you don't realize it, I will kill both of you later." ”
Bai Yulan glanced at the green that was being clamped, and sighed secretly, this is really thinking of something, although the knife is not on her neck, now she can feel a cold on her neck.
"Do you hear me?" The man was not confident enough to repeat again.
Bai Yulan couldn't, so she had to look at the officers and soldiers outside and said, "I am the wife of the Marquis of Jing'an, and I am currently about to return to the Hou Mansion." ”
Although Jing'anhou is extremely famous outside, especially in the area of troops, many people respect him, but the officers and soldiers outside still look at each other and say, "Can Mrs. Trouble come down for a while?" We want to identify if there are any other people in the carriage? ”
Bai Yulan suddenly felt apprehensive in his heart, and obviously, the assassin next to him was obviously lacking in confidence, and he glared at Bai Yulan again.
Bai Yulan was forced to speak again, and said, "I'm sorry, I'm not in good health today, and some of them are a little inconvenient to get off the carriage. ”
But the officers and soldiers below still did not agree, and had to insist that she go down and check inside.
She is in a very complicated mood, if she goes down at this time, she can give herself a glimmer of life, and the greenery can be ......
No, Bai Yulan pointed to a small storage place behind the carriage, and leaned over and pushed the button on it, where a very small space was exposed, if it could be squeezed down, one person was enough, she pointed to the place behind it, and said, "You go in." ”
There was a clear expression on the man's face that he didn't trust her, but he knew that this master must like this slave more, so he drugged Lu Yi again, and only then entered the storage room with Bai Yulan's gritted teeth.
Bai Yulan closed the storage room, and then Shi Shiran walked down, the soldiers below had solemn faces, obviously very suspicious of her, and said, "I'm tired of Mrs. Lao." ”
After that, as soon as he pointed to the carriage, a small soldier went up to search, and after such a search, he did not see anyone outside the maid, but under the seat, it was clearly illuminated.
After the little soldier came down, he shook his head at the soldier leader, and the soldier leader smiled apologetically at Bai Yulan and said, "Madam Bai, I'm really sorry. ”
Bai Yulan also showed her magnanimity at the right time, stopped talking, gestured with her hand for a 'shhh' movement, and then pointed to it, and then got into the carriage in silence.
The carriage walked slowly, but there was a meaningful look in the soldier's eyes, just now this white lady played sign language, she knew what it meant.
She looked through the curtain of the sedan chair and looked at such a large group of people and walked in the opposite direction.
She was about to open the door behind her, but Lu Yi suddenly reached out to restrain her, shook her head, reached out and pointed outside, signaling for Bai Yulan to go.
Bai Yulan's face was a little ugly, she would not choose to leave the green at all and leave alone.
After thinking about it for a while, Bai Yulan still opened the back door, the assassin was obviously not lightly injured, and he was a little out of strength, he walked out with his support for the carriage wall, looked at the two and sneered: "I didn't expect it, you master and servant are in deep love." ”
His words were extremely strange, and his tone was also strange, and he couldn't tell whether it was praise or ridicule, but no matter which one it was, Bai Yulan still felt that his words sounded extremely uncomfortable.
Seeing that the assassin seemed to be about to get off the carriage, Bai Yulan had a cold face, stretched out his hand, and didn't know where to muster the courage, and said sharply: "What about the medicine?" ”
The assassin let out a weird laugh: "Medicine? I don't have any medicine, my stuff, there's no antidote. ”
Bai Yulan was angry and wanted to clean up this person's brain.
Her face was ugly for a while, if this guy had said this before, she would have sent this person to the soldier commander early, her mind turned, and then she scolded angrily: "Then you will go down, I will go back to the mansion to find medicine for my maid." ”
Her unceremonious voice angered the man a little, but in the end, he only had a hint of interest in his eyes, and then he got out of the carriage directly.
Bai Yulan exhaled and instructed the coachman, "Go back to the Hou Mansion!" ”
However, she didn't seem to think at all that the coachman had been driving forward normally after the man had come up, and it was obvious that something was wrong.
Bai Yulan said this, but the coachman still didn't answer.
She couldn't help but open the sedan curtain, and when the soldier commander was still here, the coachman was still standing on the side, with a somewhat wooden and respectful expression.
However, at this time, he turned around, and by the pale and lonely moonlight, he could vaguely see his face, bleeding from his seven orifices, and the whites of his eyes were already left, and his gaze was dull, and he looked at Bai Yulan so fixedly for a long time, and suddenly, he immediately fell down from the carriage.
Bai Yulan reacted for a few seconds, then her face turned pale, and finally she screamed suddenly.
The soldier commander who was looking for the assassin had already found the seriously injured man, but a man in a red robe appeared and directly rescued the man in black.
The soldier commander heard a scream from this side, and hurriedly led people to this side.
Bai Yulan first saw such a terrifying scene, and now she is also a little silently worried about the current situation of Luyi, Luyi was also taken that kind of medicine before, will there be that kind of problem?
Thinking of this, Bai Yulan felt that a cold sweat could not help but appear on her body.
After she was frightened, she still got out of the carriage with courage, and saw a group of officers and soldiers rushing towards this side, and after those officers and soldiers checked the current situation of the coachman, someone began to put the coachman into a body bag, and one of them said to Bai Yulan: "Madam, you have seen that person before, what does it look like?" ”
"He was veiled, and it was too dark in the carriage for me to see, but he was badly wounded, not at all like a whip, so I am sure that this man did not seem to be a man with the thief who appeared in the mansion of Tobe Shangshu."
The soldier commander obviously saw it, and hugged his fist towards Bai Yulan and said: "Thank you Madame for the clues provided today, you guessed right, this person is not the same person as the flower thief who has been circulating in the capital recently, but this person should be the recently famous skinning maniac in the capital, and his methods are cruel and ruthless, so Madame must not be careful." ”
At this moment, the coachman's body, after several changes, actually became shriveled down, especially the skin, which was separated from the flesh below.
Bai Yulan looked at this strange phenomenon, and her face couldn't help but turn cold.
She hurriedly turned around and went back to look at Luyi, only to see Luyi covering her heart and her face turned blue.
