Chapter 255: The Strange Station
Feng Yi and the others dug a pit for all the assassins' swords and buried them, so that there were almost no traces to be seen!
The back canopy of the carriage was broken, and there was no way to repair it for the time being, Zhang Youtao took out a cloak from his baggage and tied it with a rope to the broken place of the carriage, so that almost all traces of the fight were covered!
The sixth prince looked at everything that had been dealt with and Zhang Youtao sighed: "I don't know how many hardships, dangers, conspiracies and tricks are waiting for us all the way back to Beijing!" ”
Zhang Youtao patted the arm of the sixth prince, and her eyes were resolute: "No matter how much wind and rain there is ahead, I will accompany you!" ”
After cleaning up the traces of the fight, the six princes, Feng Yi and Zhang Youtao started their journey back to Beijing.
Because the silver ring was weak, it greatly delayed the speed of travel.
Yinhuan was very guilty, she struggled to sit up in the carriage and said, "Miss, you don't care about me, I will only drag you down if I go with you!" ”
Zhang Youtao hugged the silver ring in her arms and tucked the quilt for her again: "Silly girl, don't say such things again, it is fate that we can meet together, and now the fate of all of us is closely linked, no one can do without it!" ”
Yinhuan shed tears of emotion, and Yucui's eyes were red.
The atmosphere in the carriage became heavy for a while!
In order to break the heavy atmosphere in the carriage, Yucui wiped her eyes and said, "By the way, Miss, how is the poison you gave me just now different from the poison used by Feng Dutong and them?" ”
"Why did my medicine spill out and the assassins itch all over, while Feng Dutong made the assassins paralyzed with the medicine they spilled?"
Zhang Youtao's eyes rolled white: "You are different from Feng Yi, they all have deep martial arts internal strength, even if they are poisoned, as long as they take the antidote quickly, they will soon return to normal!" ”
"You guys are different, you don't know martial arts and don't have internal strength, it will take a long time to recover from a little powder, so what I give you is not poison at all, but itchy powder that makes people itch all over!"
Yucui patted her head and said, "I see, it's still the young lady's thoughtfulness!" ”
Zhang Youtao scratched Yucui's nose with her hand and said, "I didn't expect you to be quite bold, and you actually took action to solve an assassin!" ”
Yucui puffed out her chest: "That's it, why I'm also the maid of the heroine, and I can't embarrass my master by saying anything!" ”
Zhang Youtao and Yinhuan laughed when they saw Yucui's appearance!
The Sixth Prince and Feng Yi listened to the laughter like silver bells in the carriage, and their already very heavy mood relaxed a lot!
The sixth prince even gave Zhang Youtao a thumbs up in his heart and said secretly: "Only a woman like Tao'er can maintain an optimistic attitude in such a dangerous situation!" ”
Although Feng Yi's heavy mood eased a lot with Zhang Youtao's laughter, his heart was still as uncomfortable as a needle prick, he felt as if he was getting closer and closer to the Jingshi, and Zhang Youtao was getting farther and farther away from him!
Soon it was afternoon, and at noon, in order to hurry, everyone ate some dry food and white water on the spot, and the six princes and Zhang Youtao discussed and decided to rest at the post station set up by the government!
In this way, the six princes and Zhang Youtao rushed to the post station set up by the government before dark!
Because this post station is close to the border between the two countries, it is very desolate and sparsely populated, and there is no village in front of the village!
When they reached the gate of the inn, two soldiers shouted: "Stop, who is coming?" ”
Feng Yi shouted: "We are the men of the Six Princes who have returned to Beijing to resume their lives!" ”
With that, he rode forward and handed the token on his waist to the soldier guarding the door!
A soldier hurriedly went in to inform the officer in charge of the post station, while the other soldier looked at the Six Princes and Feng Yi and the others with a wary expression!
Zhang Youtao felt that her body was stiff in the carriage, so she asked Yucui to take care of Yinhuan, and she also stepped out of the carriage to move her muscles!
Zhang Youtao got out of the carriage and moved her arms while observing the post station set up by the government in front of her!
Seeing that a post station rises on the empty flat land, not far from the inn gate is the grass shed for feeding the horses, and in the middle is a dozen houses of different sizes, and it is set upstairs and downstairs, the post station is surrounded by a high wall made of heavy blue bricks, the gate of the post station is very wide, enough to accommodate two carriages side by side, the color of the gate and door frame is pitch black, it looks serious and heavy!
Zhang Youtao looked at all this in front of her, and suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart!
It is said that a woman's sixth sense is very sensitive, and Zhang Youtao is very much in favor of it!
Because her sixth sense is extraordinarily sensitive, when she doesn't cross over, as long as she has a bad premonition, nothing good will happen!
Zhang Youtao's eyes widened and she looked hard at the post station in front of her, and the more she looked, the more sure she was of her thoughts.
At this time, the officials in the post house came out respectfully and kowtowed to greet the six princes! Beauty Nest
Zhang Youtao quickly stepped forward and grabbed the arm of the sixth prince tightly with her slender jade hand!
The six princes' surprised eyes suddenly understood Zhang Youtao's meaningful eyes, and he nodded lightly at Zhang Youtao!
Zhang Youtao let go of his arm and walked quickly onto the carriage!
After all the people and horses came in, the official of the post station hurriedly bowed his hand and said: "Your Royal Highness the Sixth Prince, your subordinates have asked someone to lead you and your entourage of war horses to Ma Peng to feed the fodder, and you can rest with me into the inn for a while before having dinner!" ”
The sixth prince nodded and said, "Okay, I'm sorry for you!" ”
Zhang Youtao and Yucui had just helped the weak silver ring off the car, and when they saw this scene, they hurriedly said: "Your Highness, our war horses are used to being wild on the battlefield, and they are very afraid of life, so let's let our own soldiers lead the horses to the horse shed!" ”
After that, he gave Feng Yi a look!
Feng Yi saw Zhang Youtao's eyes and immediately understood: "What the sixth princess said is very true, let's lead the horse into by ourselves, so as not to frighten the war horse and hurt the brothers!" ”
A trace of embarrassment flashed on the face of the official at the post station, and he quickly replied: "Yes, the subordinates obey the orders of the sixth princess!" ”
Just when all the soldiers were leading their horses forward, Feng Yi performed his "sound and secret" again.
He whispered softly in Zhang Youtao's ear, "Did you see that something was wrong?" ”
Zhang Youtao said silently in her heart: "That's true, you'd better send a few people with strong martial arts and very vigilant to take care of our horses, don't be calculated by people with intentions!" ”
Feng Yi responded: "Yes, I understand! ”
Zhang Youtao and Yucui helped Yinhuan into the guest room, and after everyone was settled, the officials of the post station also left, and the sixth prince called Zhang Youtao to his room.
The sixth prince took Zhang Youtao's hand and was stopped by Zhang Youtao's silent gesture before he could speak?
Zhang Youtao attached her mouth to the ear of the sixth prince and said: "I feel that this post station is not safe, and the officials of that post station are also very strange, but there is no shop in front of the village here, and we have no place to rest except here, so we can only live here tonight!" ”
The sixth prince nodded, and Zhang Youtao continued: "It's easy to dodge open guns and difficult to defend against hidden arrows, I'm afraid that they will poison us or do it in the middle of the night while we are asleep, so we must be more careful!" ”
The sixth prince nodded again, Zhang Youtao blinked and said loudly: "It turns out that His Highness wants to eat the food I cooked, then I will show you a hand today, but I can't do it alone, Your Highness has to find a few people to help me!" ”
The sixth prince also blinked and said loudly: "Okay, I will send a few soldiers to help you in a while, so that you can show your cooking skills!" ”
In this way, Zhang Youtao made everyone's dinner with the help of a few soldiers - a big pot of stews and a bunch of steamed buns, and thoughtfully boiled a bowl of millet porridge for Yinhuan!
After all the food was finished, Zhang Youtao was still not at ease and tried all the food with a silver needle to confirm it before letting everyone eat it!
After everyone had eaten it, Zhang Youtao took a breath, it seems that the food poisoning level is over, I don't know what will happen in the second half of the night!
Not long after dinner, it got dark, Zhang Youtao lived in the same room with Yucui and Yinhuan, and the six princes lived next door to Zhang Youtao!
In the face of the dangerous night, the Sixth Prince, Feng Yi and the others did not feel sleepy, they meditated cross-legged on the bed with their eyes closed, but their ears listened to all the subtle sounds!
After Yinhuan ate millet porridge, Zhang Youtao managed to get her a hot soup woman wrapped in a towel and put it on her lower abdomen, she immediately felt much more comfortable and much better!
She looked at Zhang Youtao gratefully: "Miss, thank you, I don't even know how to repay your kindness!" ”
Zhang Youtao held her hand and said, "Don't say that, if you want to say that you and Chun Tao take care of me more, I haven't said thank you yet!" ”
Yinhuan said with trepidation: "Miss, don't say that, we are subordinates to serve you!" ”
Zhang Youtao said: "How can there be so many things that should not be, I have never treated you as people, but regarded you as my sisters!" ”
While Yucui and Yinhuan were in tears, Zhang Youtao attached to Yucui's ear and said: "Tonight may not be peaceful, we must be prepared, I will give you a pack of medicine during the day, you take her to protect yourself and Yinhuan!" ”
Yucui wiped the tears on her face and nodded firmly!
Seeing this, Yinhuan also got up and said, "Miss, I'm much better, I don't want to drag you down, can you also give me a pack of medicine so that I can protect myself?" ”
Zhang Youtao looked at Yinhuan and nodded with satisfaction, took out another bag of herbs from his arms and put it in Yinhuan's hand, Yinhuan quickly put the medicine bag into his wide sleeve!
In a blink of an eye, the night was already deep, and soon it was the second half of the night!
Suddenly, the Sixth Prince and Feng Yi opened their closed eyes at the same time!
At the same time, they heard the sound of slight footsteps on the roof!
