Chapter 21: He Will Come
At dawn the next day, the maids from the prince's mansion pulled me up from the bed, groomed me, and changed into wedding clothes.
It was really a very luxurious wedding dress, I had heard that it was specially made by Qi Ran urging the craftsmen in the palace to make it, using the best silk thread and fabric, and the most positive red color.
I was a little nervous, drank a bowl of tea, and had someone put a hijab on me.
The auspicious time was approaching, Liu Ying personally set off a string of firecrackers at the door of the restaurant, and the maids helped me to get on the sedan chair.
That's a truly luxurious array.
In front of the sedan chair were the inner eunuchs and female officials selected from the palace, eight sedan chair men stood in the middle, and behind them were twenty guards led by Liu Ying, and the dowry that Qi Ran promised to me was listed at the end, lined up all over the street.
Xi Niang raised her handkerchief and shouted: "Get up the sedan chair!" ”
As the music sounded, I folded my hands into fists in my sleeves and waited anxiously for that moment.
The sedan chair needs to go around the city, and finally arrive at the prince's mansion, which is to tell the world about the prince's marriage.
Coming to a secluded place, the sound of the sword unsheathed sounded all around, the music was suddenly messy, and Liu Ying, who had been riding a horse to guard the sedan chair, shouted angrily: "What person? ”
I heard Xi Niang whisper: "Hey, I'm here to rob my relatives, there's a good show to watch now." ”
…… No, it's more important that you run for your life as soon as possible.
I heard the sound of someone coming and Liu Ying in hand-to-hand combat, and the other guards quickly joined the battle. The sedan chair drivers were a little flustered, but they didn't dare to put down the sedan chair easily, so they had to pestle in place, waiting for the two sides to divide the winner.
There were quite a few people coming from the other side, and I soon heard someone injured, and "hissed": "Commander, I can't stand it!" ”
The sedan chair drivers, the bride and the maids were even more overwhelmed, and several of them slipped their hands, which directly caused the entire sedan chair to fall to the ground, and I was turned extremely hard, and when the hijab on my head fell into my hands, my tears flowed down.
The outside of the sedan chair became more and more noisy, and the sound of swords facing each other was getting closer and closer.
With tears in my eyes, I lifted the sedan curtain slightly, and I saw the backs of a group of subordinates fleeing in a hurry, Liu Ying and the other guards of the Prince's Mansion were barely supporting, and the masked black-clothed men who were significantly more than twice the number of enemies.
Xu I pulled the curtain a little louder, which attracted the attention of the masked man. One of them took the lead and actually rushed into the encirclement of Liu Ying and the others in one go, and put the knife across my neck.
This scene is really familiar.
I felt an itchy throat, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and comforted myself that this was the last time, this was really the last time, and without Qi Ran, I would never be coerced again.
The masked man lifted me out of the sedan chair and smiled at Liu Ying twice: "Go back and tell the prince that his bride was taken away by us, and if you want to save her, you should come to the Eagle Cliff alone and make a deal." ”
He grabbed me, performed a light effort, and quickly moved away from the place.
Not far from the Falling Eagle Cliff, the masked man and his gang quickly brought me there, threw me to the ground, and saluted directly to a young man who was comfortably stroking a cat: "Master, Chen Ejiao brought me." ”
I ignored them, looked down at the hijab that was still holding in my hand, and naturally thought of Qi Ran, and the past few months with Qi Ran, and my heart ached uncontrollably.
The young man stared at me with interest for a moment and asked, "Are you in love with him?" ”
I still ignored it.
After waiting for a while, I didn't see Qi Ran's figure, and the young man seemed to be smiling and talking to me: "You say, will the prince come?" If he doesn't come, won't the plan we've been implementing for months be in vain? ”
I stared at the big red hijab, paused, and cleared my throat: "He'll come." ”
