Chapter 119: An Outing in the Suburbs of Beijing (6)
The three of them walked together, and Sheng Rujin always walked in front to explore the way. Xie Chengxiu looked at her thin and thin back and wanted to call out several times.
Xiao Ningcheng held on so that he didn't faint, but the arrow was highly poisonous, although he took the antidote pill and stopped the blood from the wound, but the drug attack could no longer support it.
Xie Chengxiu simply took him up.
Sheng Rujin looked at his actions with complicated eyes. Xie Chengxiu said: "What's wrong?" ”
Sheng Rujin didn't look over his head and continued to walk forward: "It's nothing. ”
She finally understood why Xie Chengxiu chose Xiao Ningcheng in her previous life. It seems that the two are indeed like-minded and sympathetic to each other. And after this life, the love between the two will only be deeper, and the relationship will be closer.
In other words, if the proposal to change the reserve rises, even if Xiao Ningcheng has no ambition, as long as Xie Chengxiu is ambitious, he will also promote Xiao Ningcheng to participate in the succession.
That's it...... I don't want to.
Sheng Rujin felt upset when he thought of the upcoming battle for the throne in more than a year.
In her previous life, she was also dragged down by the princes.
If it weren't for that, her marriage wouldn't have been so high-profile. If Xiao Ningcheng was just an ordinary prince, she would not have been miserably replaced, let alone marry Xiao Ningyu.
……
Sheng Rujin led the two of them to the place where they came.
There is a high risk in this direction, as there is a high chance that you will encounter an Assassin who comes after you, but there is also a high chance that you will not be able to do so. Because this is a deep mountain and old forest, you can hardly see each other's figures from a distance of ten feet.
However, when making this choice, it was acquiesced by Xie Chengxiu.
When Sheng Rujin proposed this, Xie Chengxiu just glanced at her: "The most dangerous place has life." ”
Sheng Rujin nodded in satisfaction. is worthy of being a political enemy in her previous life, and she immediately understood her thoughts.
The three of them walked for about an hour. It was getting darker and darker, and I couldn't see my fingers. The surrounding wilderness, shadows and shadows, as if in the ghost.
No one would have imagined that the beautiful scenery of mountains and forests during the day would be full of danger at night.
Sheng Rujin stopped to rest. Xie Chengxiu put down Xiao Ningcheng, who had fainted, and sat on the ground. He was so tired that he couldn't walk anymore.
Sheng Rujin walked around and said, "We have to spend the night here tonight." ”
Xie Chengxiu was tired and thirsty, seeing that she was so indifferent, he asked, "Aren't you afraid?" ”
Sheng Rujin didn't raise his head: "I'm afraid, I'm afraid." ”
Xie Chengxiu: "......"
Sheng Rujin took out a water bladder from his side and handed it to Xie Chengxiu: "But I'm afraid there is no need to show it." ”
Xie Chengxiu was stunned and looked at her for a long time.
Sheng Rujin was impatient, took a sip of the water bladder and handed it to him.
Xie Chengxiu was embarrassed: "I didn't mean that." ”
He didn't suspect her of manipulation in the water. If Sheng Rujin had intended to harm them, Xiao Ningcheng would have died long ago.
Sheng Rujin said: "We are lucky to be able to go back early tomorrow morning." Now His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince is under your care. I'm tired, I'm going to rest. ”
As she spoke, she found a flat place, and after a while she fell asleep, breathing evenly.
Xie Chengxiu looked at her sleeping face and couldn't help sighing.
Xiao Ningcheng turned around and asked, "Where are we now?" ”
Xie Chengxiu explained the situation. Xiao Ningcheng looked at the sleeping Sheng Rujin and said, "This time it's thanks to Sister Jin." ”
Xie Chengxiu's eyes were complicated: "Yes, as a dignified seven-foot man, I am not as calm and calm as a weak woman." Along the way, she has been exploring the way ahead, not afraid of danger. ”
Xiao Ningcheng looked at Sheng Rujin with pity and distress in his eyes.
He said in a low voice: "She is so strong and sensible, she must have had a bad time in the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
Xie Chengxiu was stunned. He wanted to defend himself, but suddenly remembered Zhou Xiajin's contempt for Sheng Rujin.
His eyes were complicated: "Maybe." ”
……
Sheng Rujin was awakened by the cold dew in the middle of the night. She woke up in silence, covered with a thin coat, and was manly.
The night was too dark for Sheng Rujin to make out who it was. She was so cold that she couldn't sleep, so she simply woke up and moved her muscles and bones to warm up her limbs.
"Sister Jin......"
The low voice of the call made Sheng Rujin stunned. She saw Xiao Ningcheng resting against the trunk of a tree not far away.
Sheng Rujin walked over, stared at him in the dark for a long time, shook his head and sighed: "My Highness has been saved." I didn't expect to think too much. ”
Xiao Ningcheng laughed: "Should you be so fast? I left the palace this time, and the people in the palace didn't know where I was going. Eighteen horsemen were also scattered. If they divide into two ways and go to the capital to find help......"
"There are no rescuers." Sheng Rujin interrupted him coldly, "Do you know why the assassins aren't in a hurry to chase us?" Because the first thing they do is to kill your guards. ”
Xiao Ningcheng was stunned and couldn't speak for a long time.
Sheng Rujin said lightly: "If I am the mastermind behind the assassin, I will first follow His Highness for a long time, and then seize the opportunity of His Highness's single order to make a move." Either you can hit it with one blow and immediately retreat with your whole body. If the blow misses, the first thing to do is to kill the people around His Highness, so that they don't have the opportunity to return to Beijing to report the news. ”
Then trap His Highness in the dense forest, slowly surround him, and kill him. Anyway, His Highness had already been poisoned and injured in the first round of attacks. The battle of trapped beasts is not enough to worry about. ”
Xiao Ning looked at the immature Sheng Rujin in front of him fixedly, as if he didn't understand why the young woman said so calmly and cruelly.
Sheng Rujin smiled: "But rest assured, Your Highness, the assassins have missed a lot." So it won't work out. If they are allowed to succeed, there will be no reason. ”
Xiao Ningcheng said slowly: "If it weren't for you and Cheng Xiu, I would have died a long time ago." ”
Sheng Rujin said with a smile: "Your Highness is serious, if it weren't for His Highness's rescue, Rujin would have died." Right now, it's just a matter of repaying His Highness. ”
"You ......," Xiao Ningcheng sighed, "Why did Sister Jin say that." ”
Sheng Rujin smiled in his heart. She knew that she didn't need to be so straightforward, if she showed her loyalty at this time and revealed her woman's fear and delicateness, maybe Xiao Ningcheng would really fall in love with her, and even never change her mind for the rest of her life.
But it wasn't her.
She didn't want Xiao Ningcheng to like a fake self. In that case, even if she eventually becomes a family member in the future, she will have to act in a drama for the rest of her life.
Reliving a life, she doesn't want to live so tired.
Sheng Rujin opened the topic: "We have to go." But before you go, you may want to lay out a layout. ”
Xiao Ningcheng asked: "How to lay it out?" ”
Sheng Rujin stepped forward and kicked Xie Chengxiu, who was still asleep. Xie Chengxiu woke up and saw that it was Sheng Rujin, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?" Has anyone come looking for us? ”
Sheng Rujin looked at him with a smile: "No, I pinch my fingers, I'm afraid we will be caught up by the assassins in less than an hour." For the safety of His Highness, he can only trouble Xie Shizi to sacrifice his ego and protect His Highness. ”
Xie Chengxiu's face suddenly turned ugly: "What do you want to do?" ”
Sheng Rujin threw the coat he had just covered to Xie Chengxiu: "Put it on and run." ”
