Chapter 1: Return to the City
"Bang bang!"
There was the sound of horses' hooves rushing quickly outside the carriage, and the maid Cui'er lifted the curtain of the carriage, took a look at the outside through a small gap, and couldn't help but look at the little girl in the carriage with her eyes closed: "Miss, a group of black-clothed people rushed over in a hurry outside, how do you look at it in the middle of the night, how can it be scary, do we really want to rush overnight like this?" ”
Li Qingrong didn't respond immediately, and it took a long time to open her eyes: "Mother is sick, no matter what, I must rush back at this time, only there are good Langzhong in the city." ”
Seeing Li Qingrong open her mouth like this, Cui'er finally quieted down, but she couldn't help but look at her young lady twice.
Since a few days ago, the young lady suddenly fainted in Hanshan Temple, and woke up again, it became a little different, and the usual lively temperament suddenly became quiet, even the lady suddenly became seriously ill, but did not panic, calmly disposed of the panicked mother-in-law, and firmly ordered to return to the city overnight.
It might not be surprising if the young lady was already married, but now the young lady is only twelve years old, and the lady's breath is getting weaker and weaker, but this is the case, and the young lady's face does not show the slightest emotion.
Li Qingrong closed her eyes again, on the surface, her face was expressionless, and no one could see her emotions, but the tightly held hand betrayed her mood.
She actually felt Cui'er's scrutiny for a long time, but she was not in the mood to play her twelve-year-old self, because she lost her mother at the age of twelve in her memory, and it was because she lost her mother that she was sent back to the capital, and she didn't want to remember those days after returning to the capital.
At first, there were happy days, but then I became more and more unhappy, and the days of being held in my hands were very sad, and the ants were still greedy for life, but the days of survival were too difficult, and I survived until she got married, thinking that she had escaped, and finally was designed again, so I watched myself being killed.
Just as he was thinking, the carriage suddenly shook.
"Miss, it's not good, there are two teams fighting in front, let's keep going, I'm afraid it's ......" The coachman's anxious voice sounded.
Li Qingrong quickly lifted the curtain, and saw that there were indeed two teams of men and horses fighting in front of her, the war horses roared, and the two teams of black-clothed men raised their knives to split each other, and in the dark night, the sharp light flashed people's eyes.
Li Qingrong was slightly stunned when she saw the figure of the knife flashing.
The coachman who spoke was obviously afraid, and he could see the other party's body trembling in this nightlight: "Miss, let's turn around quickly, after the two teams of men and horses are finished, maybe they will do something to us." ”
The guards outside were also obviously nervous, trying to speak but not speaking.
Li Qingrong looked at the front with a trace of trance, and then looked at her mother, who was pale and had a weak breath of pain in the carriage.
"Wait a while, there will be a result in the fight, and when it's over, let's continue on our way."
Li Qingrong spoke quickly, and her words could not be ignored.
The coachman couldn't help but look at the lady in the carriage, and then looked at Li Qingrong with extremely complicated eyes.
Madame suddenly fell seriously ill, such a situation, shouldn't it be to leave Madame in the temple and send someone back to the city to ask for a doctor, but to rush in the middle of the night, Madame's condition is obviously getting worse and worse.
This is simply to kill Madame, Miss is young and willful and ignorant.
Now there are two teams of people fighting like this......
"The previous fight really stopped, how could you have expected that this fight would end soon, miss?" At this moment, Cui'er's surprised voice sounded.
The coachman couldn't help but look back, the people who had fought hard before, and didn't know when it would end, now they had already divided the winners and losers, and one team of people had all won the other team, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes for a while.
"Keep on your way." Li Qingrong didn't speak, just lowered the curtain and ordered in a cold voice.
The coachman was still afraid of the man in black in front of him and didn't dare to whip it.
"The winning team is from the government, it won't hurt passers-by, hurry up." At this time, Li Qingrong's voice sounded again.
The coachman subconsciously waved the whip obediently, but only after the whip did he react to be afraid, how could he listen to the young lady's words, this continues to move forward, what if the man in black does something to them, he is tense all the way, and he doesn't dare to breathe, especially when passing by these people in black.
"Stop." The man in black at the front had spoken.
The coachman's heart is finished.
"Who's in the carriage?"
The coachman's feet trembled.
The curtain of the car opened again at this time, revealing Li Qingrong, who was still calm and calm: "I am the daughter of Li County Ling, my mother is seriously ill, and I specially took my mother back to the city to see the doctor." ”
The person who asked was obviously stunned when he saw Li Qingrong.
The coachman was frightened, thinking about whether to flee immediately, but when he saw the clothes of the people nearby, his eyes widened, because the people who approached were really official uniforms.
The color of the clothes is not actually black, but brownish-red.
It's just that this official uniform looks a little familiar and a little unfamiliar, which is a little different from the clothes of the catcher.
And after the man quickly checked the carriage and made sure that there were really only Li Qingrong Cui'er and the seriously ill Mrs. Li in the carriage, he retreated, said to the person in charge of it, and then gave way.
Seeing everything that happened, the coachman couldn't help but rub his eyes, and finally looked at his own lady in shock.
How did the young lady determine this?
In such a dark night, even he couldn't see the clothes of these people......
In fact, it was not only the coachman who was surprised and deliberately lured people to move, but also the people who ambushed and secretly attacked here were also surprised to see the carriage moving forward as if nothing had happened.
"My lord, it's really strange, there are three people in this carriage, two little girls with a seriously ill woman who is already in a coma, such a team encounters two teams of people and horses to fight and leaves without turning around, especially the person who answers, not the girl who looks older, but the girl who looks eleven or twelve years old, the most strange thing is that the girl is not afraid of me at all, it is really bold, as if she knows that we will not hurt them." Chen Da reported to Su Qing.
Su Qingyu only glanced at the carriage in the distance, and then said coldly: "It's important to do business, immediately try these assassins, and the people involved in the Jiangnan disaster silver case should come out." ”
"Yes, my subordinates just think this group of people is a little strange."
Before leaving, Su Qingyu glanced at the carriage again: "Send someone to follow the carriage and confirm the identity of the people on the carriage." ”
Li Qingrong didn't know these things, she just looked at her mother who was lying down, her mother's face was even paler, and countless sweat appeared on her forehead, Li Qingrong wiped the sweat on her mother's forehead with a handkerchief: "Mother, hold on a little longer, hold on a little longer, and we'll go back to the city." ”
"Miss, how do you know that the two teams will soon be decided, and how do you know that the winner is the official uniform?" Cui'er looked at Li Qingrong curiously.
Li Qingrong's hand paused slightly.
How do you know how quickly you will be able to decide the winner?
It's just because the knife in the hand reflects a person she has seen in her previous life, that person is the general of the town army who is high, even when she was the most beautiful in her previous life, she has only heard of this person, it is rumored that this person is extremely powerful, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the enemy country were killed by thousands of people on the battlefield, but he was also cold-blooded and cruel, and he killed 100,000 soldiers of the enemy country without blinking, she had a few encounters because her husband's family had stayed under the other party for a few days, and because of the rumors of the other party's powerful deeds, she remembered the other party.
Such a person must be an elite, and when he encounters someone next to him, the number of people is equal, and he will naturally quickly divide the winners and losers.
It's just that these things can't be said to others, Li Qingrong wiped her mother's forehead again: "Just guess." ”
She didn't want to think about anything related to the capital.
If she could, she would not plan to enter Beijing again in her life, and people with such a side would naturally not have intersected again: "Tell the coachman to hurry up." ”
Cui'er obviously wanted to ask again, and finally answered when she heard Li Qingrong's words.
After a while, the group finally arrived at the gate of Liucheng.
When he arrived at the city gate, the city guards who were guarding the city opened their mouths, and Li Qingrong's brows couldn't help frowning.
Because it was late at night, and the city gate had already passed the closing time, it would be the city gate closed, but the city guard demanded that if she wanted to enter, she must have something to prove her identity, otherwise she could only wait for dawn, but where did she get the things to prove her identity.
At this time, the sound of horses' hooves sounded behind him, Li Qingrong turned around, but she didn't expect to see Su Qingyu, the general of the town army in her previous life, and saw Su Qingyu pressing a group of people and approaching the city gate.
