Chapter 436: Strange

Qi Wenfu's eyes were dark, and he said to Xiao Mian: "It's not easy to walk in the middle of the night, you should be careful after you go later." ”

When Xiao Mian heard this, he only thought that Qi Wenfu was afraid of any accidents, so he said with a smile: "Don't worry, these people I brought are all good hands in the Salt Gang, even if there is any accident, it is enough to protect your safety." ”

"What's more, I've seen it, the guards sent by the Xie family to Su Ruan are all top masters in the army, speaking of which, although Su Ruan is not the daughter of the Xie family, they treat her well."

"This treatment can catch up with the biological one."

Xiao Mian had heard some things about the Xie family before, and knew that Xie Yuan was married to Su Xuanmin's widow, and Su Ruan was the stepdaughter of the Xie family.

It's just that Su Ruan never changed his surname later, nor did he enter the Xie family tree, but still retained the surname Su.

Xiao Mian originally thought about whether the rumors that the outside world said that the Xie family treated her very well were superficial, otherwise why didn't Su Ruan follow the Chen family into the Xie family, but later he knew that Qi Wenfu planned to join the family, and now that there were these guards who looked at the guards in the army who were protecting Su Ruan inch by inch, he realized that he was thinking too much.

These people were obviously sent by the Xie family, and they were all very good people.

If they didn't really care, how could the Xie family be so concerned about Su Ruan's safety?

Qi Wenfu's eyes eased slightly when he heard this, the Xie family treats Ruan Ruan well, but how bad is Ruan Ruan's treatment of the Xie family?

No matter what she does, she will always take care of the safety of the Xie family, she can cook for the old lady of the Xie family, she can plan for the prince for Xie Qingheng, she can make trouble for Xie Qingyang, and she can beat Yuwen Liangchen for Xie Huan...

Su Ruan's treatment of the Xie family is always a little different.

It's like feeling guilty, and it's like trying to make up for something.

Ming Ming is not very old, but she always wants to shelter all the people of the Xie family under her wings.

Qi Wenfu still remembers that when he and Su Ruan met for the first time, the little girl was full of calculations, her words and deeds were so fierce that she couldn't do it, she fooled him around, and unconsciously stepped into the pit.

But when it comes to the Xie family, she always gives in.

Otherwise, with the means and scheming she showed before, if she didn't care about the Xie family at all, she might not have the scene in front of the palace gate, and she might use more drastic and ruthless means to rehabilitate Su Xuanmin......

"Zirong?"

Xiao Mian saw Qi Wenfu distracted, and couldn't help but say, "What do you think?" ”

Qi Wenfu pulled the reins: "It's nothing, go and tell people to go faster, find people as soon as possible, and go back." ”

Xiao Mian nodded: "Okay." ”

……

The official road outside Jingnan had already been repaired, but they didn't walk along the official road, but after walking for about a tea time, Guo Ergou led them into the mountain road and drilled into the forest all the way.

It had rained heavily the first night, the mountain roads were soft and slippery, and the carriage was not easy to walk.

Later, when he went a little further, the wheels sank into the mud.

"How far is it back?" Qi Wenfu asked.

Guo Ergou spoke, "I still have to walk for a while, and the road behind is even worse." I forgot that it had rained heavily yesterday, and the road in the mountains got stuck in the wheels as soon as it rained, and the carriage was afraid that it would not be able to walk. ”

Qi Wenfu frowned and looked at the wheels of the carriage that were stuck in the mud pit, and said directly: "You take He Fangniang and Huzi, and I take Ruan Ruan, and continue on horseback." ”

Guo Ergou naturally had no opinion, pulled He Fangniang on the back of the horse, and circled the mother and son in front of him, while Su Ruan was also pulled by Qi Wenfu to sit in front of his horse.

The group left the carriage and continued to walk forward, Su Ruan looked at the quiet and somewhat excessive forests around him, leaned into Qi Wenfu's arms and lowered his voice: "Fourth brother." ”

"Huh?" Qi Wenfu bowed his head.

Su Ruan was afraid that others would hear it, so she tilted her head slightly, and her voice was like a mosquito, "I think something is wrong." ”

Qi Wenfu's expression remained unchanged, but he pulled the reins to let the horse avoid the quagmire under his feet, and only then did he whisper when he continued to walk forward: "It's a little wrong, we went out of the city to the north, but after entering the forest, we were going in circles, and now the direction has changed, and I am afraid that we will soon go around to the other end of the city." ”

Su Ruan hummed in a low voice, she knew that Qi Wenfu had a strong sense of direction, and when he took her out of the city to hunt in the previous life, sometimes he would stay in the mountains when it rained heavily, and she would not be able to distinguish the direction when she walked far, but Qi Wenfu could always take her to find a way out.

Su Ruan lowered his voice, "There is something wrong with this Guo Ergou." ”

Qi Wenfu glanced forward, and saw that Guo Ergou was very easy to take He Fangniang and Huzi to ride a horse in the forest, and when he pulled the reins in his hand, he could easily avoid the quagmire on the ground, and his eyes were slightly cold.

Jingnan Wharf is near the sea, Guo Ergou is an ordinary dock worker, how can he be so good at riding the art of royalty.

This forest is difficult to walk, even if it is the guards sent by Xiao Mian and the Xie family, at this time, the trouser legs are full of mud spots, and even one of the horse's legs is stuck in the mud pit and injured, but Guo Ergou's legs are clean, and even the horse's legs are rarely muddy, obviously avoiding most of the difficult places.

When Qi Wenfu saw him before, he faintly felt that something was wrong.

The carriage was stuck in the wheel, and he offered to let Guo Ergou take He Fangniang's mother and son, just to confirm something.

Now it seems that this Guo Ergou is not an ordinary porter at all.

Qi Wenfu knew that Su Ruan might also see it, so he pretended to reach out and pull her ear hair for her, leaned closer and whispered: "Be careful when you get to the place, adapt to the situation, and then I will let Hanshan or Xiao Mian follow you, if there is anything wrong, leave immediately." ”

Su Ruan hummed: "You should be careful." ”

Qi Wenfu tightened her tightly: "Okay." ”

……

The road in the mountains is difficult to walk, and the guards who were originally tightly surrounded were slowly pulled away, not to mention Qi Wenfu and Su Ruan, even Xiao Mian sensed that something was wrong.

He slowed down, tightened the reins, and suddenly said, "We've been gone for half an hour, how long will it be there?" ”

Guo Ergou hurriedly replied: "Soon, it's in front." ”

"You've said it a few times, almost."

Xiao Mian suddenly stepped forward, and when everyone didn't expect it, he stretched out his hand and put his horizontal sword on Guo Ergou's neck, his eyebrows furrowed, "You took us out of the city from the north gate, but you went around the forest several times, and looked all the way forward but detoured to the south of the city." ”

"This should be close to the hillside near the docks, don't tell me you hid those people here."

He Fangniang was so frightened that he exclaimed, Guo Ergou's face also changed slightly, and seeing that everyone else around him was surrounded, he hurriedly explained, "It's true, it's really coming." ”

He pointed not far ahead,

"I took you out of the city from the north gate for fear of being followed, and I told you just now when I was in the post house, in order to prevent them from being found by the people of the government, I hid them in a convenient place to escape."
