Chapter 273: Robbery
(Cat flutter Chinese ) Xiao Shunzi looked at the surrounding woods and endless mountains, and her depressed voice was melancholy, "Madam, the carriage was robbed by robbers, we just arrived in Yuzhou, I am afraid that there is still a long way to go to Qingzhupo, how to go without a carriage." (Fengwu Literature Network)"
"Keep going and ask a house for directions." Yun Xiao sighed, very helpless, it was very difficult to walk such a mountain road when she was in good health, not to mention how far she could go now, it was estimated that she would spend the night in the wilderness tonight.
"That's all it takes, miss, go now, otherwise in this barren mountain and mountain with no village in front of the village and no shop in the back, if you don't get eaten by wild beasts, you will starve to death." After Xiao Wan finished speaking, she helped Yun Xiao up, and the two walked forward slowly.
Xiao Shunzi was frightened by Xiao Wan's words, and was afraid in his heart, and followed behind with a look around, for fear that a wild beast would come out of the forest.
The master and servant had no experience in the field, and they couldn't tell the direction in the mountains, so they could only walk along the way, walking slowly, and they didn't know what time it was, they only felt exhausted.
Xiao Wan helped Miss, feeling that Miss's body was getting heavier and heavier, and walking slower and slower.
"Miss watch your step."
Yun Xiao was so tired that she couldn't lift her legs, and fell to the ground by the branches.
"You're sick, take a break for half a day."
"Okay, rest, I really don't have the strength to go." Yun Xiao was physically exhausted, so she sat on the grass, and she didn't even seem to have the strength to sit.
Xiao Wan sat beside her with a bitter face, and Yun Xiao immediately leaned on her weakly.
"I'm afraid I'm only walking three or five miles after walking for a long time, this mountain road is so difficult to walk, I'm tired to death, I said that Miss can't stand it, even the slave and the maid themselves can't walk, the slave and the maid are hard, it's nothing, but the young lady is sick, and it's really hard for you to walk on such a road."
"No matter how difficult it is to walk, you have to stick to Qingzhupo, Master Huizhu knows medical skills too well, and I will reduce fever after a dose of medicine." Yun Xiao gasped and lowered her eyelids, she really wanted to fall asleep and never wake up.
"Snakes, there are snakes!" Xiao Shunzi found the snake, jumped up in horror and stared at the approaching yellow flower snake, and shouted in horror.
A yellow and black poisonous snake wriggled in the grass ditch, slowly approaching Yun Xiao and Xiao Wan's feet.
Xiao Wan was shocked, and Yun Xiao also opened her eyes in horror, if there was really a snake, the snake was only three feet away from her feet.
Ah-Yun Xiao and Xiao Wan gasped at the same time, the color of this snake is too terrifying, and if you bite it, you will definitely die.
"Xiaowan."
Yun Xiao's first reaction was to drag Xiao Wan behind her.
"Don't move!" Xiao Shunzi held the stone but didn't dare to start.
"Miss."
Xiao Wan desperately pounced on Yun Xiao and used her body to protect her master's legs. Her fierce movements spurred the snake to attack forward.
Xiao Shunzi saw the snake rushing towards Xiao Wan's back, her eyes were frightened, her expression was stiff, and she couldn't breathe, "Ah! ”
At the last moment, it was too late to say that it was too late, and I saw a flash of silver light, and a dart fixed the leaping poisonous snake on the grass.
On the detouring road, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, and a fast horse galloped over, rushing to the front in a blink of an eye.
Yun Xiao was already weak, and after being frightened by the snake attack, she fell on the grass and fainted.
"Miss, miss." Ignoring the life-saving benefactor who came from the horse, Xiao Wan hugged the young lady and called anxiously.
"Oops, it scared the hell out of me." Seeing that the snake was dead, Xiao Shunzi threw the stone in his hand, slumped on the ground and took a breath, leaned over to Yun Xiao's side, and shouted, "Young lady." ”
Xiao Shunzi called twice, and when he saw the person who came on horseback dismounted, he turned his head and kowtowed to the man, "Thank you for saving your life." ”
Kowtowed a few heads, raised his eyes to look, and recognized, Xiao Shunzi got up in surprise, "Why are you?" You are, you are ......"
Xiao Shunzi couldn't remember this person's name and surname for a while, and his forgetful head suddenly opened, and said with a smile, "Oh, you are the Xin guard of the Shengwang Mansion." ”
"It's down there, Hugh wants to talk more, look at the mother."
Xin Luo was in no mood to pay attention to the eunuch's surprise, stepped forward and knelt down on his knees, and saluted Yun Xiao, "See the queen mother, Weichen is late to save the car, please forgive the mother." ”
"Niangniang fainted, Niangniang ......" Xiaowan's heartache tears rushed out, "Xin guard, Niangniang has been sick for a long time, and her body is hot, save Niangniang." ”
Xin Luo hurriedly got up and ordered eagerly: "Quick, help the queen mother to the car, you guys follow me immediately." ”
The carriage that rushed behind Xin Luo was the one that had been hijacked, and the driver was Guo Yong, the bandit leader who had stolen the property.
Xiao Wan glared at Guo Yong, didn't care about scolding the robber, and Xiao Shunzi helped Yun Xiao to the car, Guo Yong quickly turned the horse's head and drove back quickly.
At this time, a trail of cavalry roared past the mountain road.
"Drive-"
Xiao Yi hurriedly waved his horsewhip, galloped in the front, more than a dozen horses followed closely behind him, a burst of smoke and dust in the mountains, the sunset in the distance slowly ended in the West Mountain, the sky gradually darkened, the speed of driving was still unabated, and someone lit a torch to illuminate the road.
"Xiao Yi, you have reached the realm of Yuzhou, and no matter how fast the queen's carriage is put down, it is impossible to get here." Fu Yan reminded Xiao Yi while the horse was galloping.
Xiao Yi strangled the horse's head and wiped the sweat on his face, this sweat was not tired, but urgent.
"Fu Yan, it is estimated that I should have caught up after chasing here, but there is still no trace of Niangniang, alas, don't let anything happen."
Fu Yan asked the horse to stop, and the rest of the people also grabbed the reins, Fu Yan turned back the horse's head and walked to Xiao Yi, and analyzed with heavy eyebrows, "Maybe they went the wrong way and went in another direction." ”
"All obey."
Xiao Yi decisively ordered, "All the people are divided into four roads, a team of five people, all the way to Qingzhupo, all the way to the back of the original road, all the way to the left, all the way to the right, carefully look for the roads and houses along the way, find the mother in situ to stand by for protection, and immediately release the arrow to send the message." ”
"Yes." The guards scattered and searched separately.
When Yun Xiao woke up, she saw lying in a simple and unfamiliar place, her heart sank, and she turned her eyes to see Xiao Wan napping beside her, and she was a little more relieved.
"Xiaowan."
"Miss!" Xiao Wan opened her eyes and suddenly became energetic.
"Where is this?" Yun Xiao looked at the humble room she lived in, sat up and asked.
"In the mountains, this is far away from the village, it is a farmhouse with a single courtyard, the doctor has treated you, do you feel better?" Xiao Wan touched Yun Xiao's forehead.
"It's much better, my body doesn't hurt so much." Yun Xiao moved her body, she no longer had the uncomfortable feeling she had before, and it seemed that her fever had subsided.
"You didn't have a fever last night."
At this time, Xin Luo heard the voice and asked in a low voice outside the door, "Niangniang is awake?" ”
"Xin Luo? Is it the Xin guard? Yun Xiao turned her eyes when she heard the voice, and she was very familiar with this deep voice.
"It's Wechen."
"Come in."
"Wechen obeys." Xin Luo walked in, knelt in front of Yun Xiao's bed and bowed respectfully, "Weichen knocks on the queen." ”
"Guards Xin, please, you don't have to make this big gift outside the palace." Yun Xiao raised her hand to him and motioned for him to get up.
Xin Luo still knelt on the ground and didn't dare to get up.
"You saved me?" Yun Xiao looked at Xin Luo in surprise, the emperor had sent thousands of troops to find someone, and she actually let her run into it.
"Yesterday, Weichen's subordinates robbed Niangniang's carriage and property, making Niangniang experience half a day of suffering, and the minister deserves to die." Xin Luo replied truthfully.
"Your carjack?" Yun Xiao was shocked.
"It's Weichen, please atone for your sins." Xin Luo prostrated to the ground.
Yun Xiao had many doubts.
A few months ago, Xin Luo offended Princess Xun and made a big mistake and was kicked out of the Shengwang Mansion, this matter is well known inside and outside the court, not long after the Shengwang was robbed, so far there is no news, now, a dignified palace guard has become a robbery bandit, what is going on?
"King Sheng is also robbed by you." Yun Xiao sank and asked solemnly.
"Yes, the prince was indeed robbed by Weichen."
"As King Sheng's guard, why do you want to rob the people for the sake of Kou." Yun Xiao's questioning voice was slightly angry. If it weren't for his people who hijacked the car, how could she faint from exhaustion.
"Niangniang didn't know, Weichen was framed by Princess Xun, was kicked out of the Shengwang Mansion and was penniless, a lot of silver is needed to cure the prince's illness, and the silver on the guards has been spent, in order to recover the prince as soon as possible, Weichen can only rob money and raise money here to treat the prince."
"Where is King Sheng now?"
"The prince is in the backyard room."
"King Sheng...... How? Yun Xiao was still apprehensive about Xuanyuan Wei's domineering style, so King Sheng never visited him during the time he was killed.
"The emperor is too deeply poisoned, and he still doesn't recognize people."
"For the sake of King Sheng, you have become robbers, what a bold nonsense." Yun Xiao was slightly annoyed, thinking that it was not easy for the guards to take their masters to avoid the emperor's pursuit, and it was also because of Xin Luo's loyalty to King Sheng, so she softened her tone, "However, it is also difficult for you." ”
"Mother forgiveness."
Yun Xiao glared at Xin Luo and sighed, "Alas! Get up. Seeing that you are loyal and commendable, I will not pursue it, and the thousand taels of gold I brought will be used as the medical expenses and living expenses of King Sheng, and I will not rob the road in the future. ”
"Wechen knows his mistake, Wechen doesn't dare to use Niangniang's property, it will be useful for you to travel away from Beijing with a thousand taels of gold."
"I want to donate this thousand taels of gold to the Cuizhu Nunnery for the Buddha, ask the Buddha to bless, since King Sheng is in urgent need, leave it to him, now King Sheng can't take care of himself, I can't let King Sheng suffer without dependence, besides, King Sheng is a member of the Murong royal family, and the money for King Sheng's treatment should be borne by the Murong clan, and my gold and silver are for the royal family, so the Xin guards must accept it for King Sheng."
"Weichen is grateful for the prince, thank you for your love." Xin Luo was grateful, and hurriedly kowtowed to thank him, "With this thousand taels of gold, the brothers don't have to risk being arrested and rob the silver everywhere to raise money for the prince's medicine. ”
"If these are not enough, go to me again, whether I am in the palace or outside the palace, a letter can raise the medical expenses of King Sheng."
"Xie Niangniang." Xin Luo was convinced of Yun Xiao's words, after all, she was the daughter of Yunxiang Villa, and the royal family relied on the Yun family's financial resources very much. Cat flutter Chinese
