Chapter 31: The Left Minister's Wife
Jiang Liuli saw that Miss's clothes were in tatters, so she could only let everyone else leave, leaving the frightened maid and Yu Caiwei to stay in the dilapidated temple and help her change into new clothes.
After changing her clothes, the young lady slowly walked out of the broken temple and saluted Jiang Liuli and the others.
"I would like to thank you for saving your life." She saluted as she said, the etiquette was impeccable.
"Don't thank us, it's Cai Wei who saved you, we're just passing by." Jiang Liuli said coldly, the facts she said did not intend to invite credit.
"Miss Caiwei has already explained just now, if it weren't for you, not only would Miss Caiwei be in danger, but if I was found by them, I would still not be able to escape their clutches, and when the time comes, I will no longer have the face to live in this world." If she bows her head in grief, she has promised to marry someone, if her innocence is not guaranteed, she can only die.
"Oh? I'm curious about how you saved them, Caiwei? Jiang Liuli looked at Yu Caiwei curiously, although she had already guessed it, but she still wanted to ask, how could she be a little woman, how could she have the strength to move these two big men?
"I used Ecstasy to stun the five men first, and then took advantage of their coma to move them from the woods to the ruined temple, but I didn't expect that the effect of Ecstasy was so short, and I was caught by them before I could escape." Yu Caiwei said shyly.
"You have so much strength? Can two stout men move? Mingyue's eyes widened in surprise, although one of the men looked very thin, but no matter how thin a man was, he was also very heavy.
"I've been doing housework since I was a child, so I have a lot of strength." Speaking of this, Yu Caiwei was even more embarrassed, and even had a trace of inferiority.
"It's not a bad thing to have a lot of strength, didn't you save so many people with your strength this time?" Jiang Liuli didn't like her to be so inferior, and comforted her.
"Yes, if it weren't for Miss Caiwei, we would all be in danger this time." If he saw this, he hurriedly comforted him.
Yu Caiwei listened to their words, and really didn't feel inferior, she wasn't beautiful enough, coupled with her brute strength, she was treated as a man in the village, and it has been seventeen years, and no one has come to the door to propose marriage.
Jiang Liuli saw that the matter had been resolved, and planned to continue to hurry, and if he delayed any longer, he would probably have to live in the woods tonight.
"Sister." Yu Caiwei saw that she was leaving, and hurriedly stopped her, and after calling her, she looked entangled again, knowing that she shouldn't think about it, but this time the journey was far away, and she really didn't dare to go alone anymore.
"What?" Jiang Liuli turned to look at her with a tangled look, and guessed what she wanted to say, but she still asked kindly.
"Sister, where are you going?" She mustered up the courage to ask, if they were with her, then she could walk with them all the way.
"Sheng Jing." She didn't mind being alone, but she didn't know that she was on the same path, and if she was on the same path, it would be really too coincidental.
"Did the girl go to Shengjing? Me too, I wonder if the girl can take us with us? Yu Caiwei hadn't spoken yet, but she spoke excitedly.
Jiang Liuli raised her eyebrows and looked at Ruo Xi, what's wrong today, everyone is so close to herself? Although she likes to be quiet, it would be good if she could make a friend who has the same interests as herself.
"Such a coincidence? I'm also planning to go to Shengjing. Yu Caiwei's eyes widened in surprise, several of them are too fateful, they can all meet in this way.
"What a coincidence." Jiang Liuli smiled coldly, if one person was on the same road with her, she could say that it was a coincidence, but at this time, there were so many people on the same road with her, which had to make her suspicious.
But if it's not a coincidence, where is their purpose in following them? This made her wonder if the play just now was just a play?
"Sister, can you let us follow you?" Yu Caiwei looked at Jiang Liuli cautiously, now she couldn't trust anyone except her.
"Of course, just don't bother me." Jiang Liuli thought about it and agreed, if this encounter was indeed a coincidence, then it would be no problem to walk with them, if they were really close to themselves for a purpose, then stay by their side, observe carefully, once they find out that they have a problem, it is not too late to let them go.
The reason why she is so sensitive now is all because Lou Qingyang, in order to lure himself to appear, he actually asked people to pretend to be flower thieves, he can think of that play, and it is hard to guarantee that he will not design this play again.
This time the incident is obviously very similar to the last time, but whether it was sent by Lou Qingyang or not, it is still impossible to determine, so we can only wait and see what happens.
"Thank you, sister, we will never bother you." Yu Caiwei saw that she agreed so readily, she almost jumped up excitedly, it was very lonely to travel alone, now that she was accompanied by someone, she didn't have to worry about thieves on the road, she was naturally happy.
Ruoxi is naturally very happy, but she still has lingering palpitations about what happened just now, if she is allowed to hurry now, she really doesn't dare to leave.
After reaching an agreement, Ruoxi and Yu Caiwei got into the carriage, and the others followed around the carriage, Ruoxi's carriage was destroyed by the five men, and there was no way to sit at all, so six people could only squeeze into a carriage, but fortunately, the carriage was larger and would not feel crowded.
After getting into the carriage, Jiang Liuli took out the medical book that he had read half of and read it, completely ignoring the meaning of others.
Yu Caiwei is a lively girl, the dull atmosphere in the carriage made her uncomfortable, she wanted to find someone to chat, looked at Jiang Liuli, saw that she was reading intently, did not dare to disturb, and looked at Duan Ruoxi on the left, and felt that she was better to talk.
"If you pity the girl, why did you go to Shengjing alone? Don't have a family to accompany you? Yu Caiwei asked curiously, how could the family rest assured that such a beautiful woman would go out alone.
"I ran out secretly to meet my fiancé in Shengjing." Duan Ruoxi blushed with shame, lowered his head and looked at everyone embarrassedly.
Her words shocked everyone in the carriage, including Jiang Liuli, who had been reading a book, she took her eyes off the medical book, raised her eyebrows and looked at Duan Ruoxi, she never expected that the ladies who had always been quiet and dignified would also make such a thing as running away from home, and she didn't know how much courage she spent for this decision.
"Why did you have to sneak out to meet him? Is your family not allowing you to meet him? Yu Caiwei was shocked and curious.
"I haven't seen him for three years, he's too busy in Shengjing to come back, I have mentioned to my family many times that I want to go to Shengjing, and my father and mother are worried about my safety and don't allow me to go out." Speaking of this, her mood was obviously very low, because what her father and mother were worried about really happened, if it wasn't for Yu Caiwei appearing to save her, she would have chosen to end herself because she lost her innocence.
"You are really bold, one person with a maid, two guards to Shengjing, do you know how many bad people there are on this road?" Jiang Liuli looked at her mockingly, she may have been too well protected at home, and she didn't know the sinister nature of the rivers and lakes at all.
"Anan and Abei's kung fu is very high, but it was plotted." Duan Ruoxi retorted in a low voice, because in front of Jiang Liuli, who was more powerful in kung fu, their kung fu could indeed only be regarded as three-legged cat kung fu.
Jiang Liuli looked at her speechlessly, she had seen one of them do it just now, but in her eyes, that kung fu looked bad.
"If you pity the girl, your fiancé is doing business in Shengjing? Or is it an official? Yu Caiwei continued to gossip and asked.
"He is an official, and he is the prime minister of the left side." Duan Ruoxi's words shocked the people present again, who would have thought that her fiancé would have such a big background.
"Oh my God." Yu Caiwei was so shocked that she almost couldn't sit still, she never expected that the woman she saved would have a great background.
Jiang Liuli frowned and thought carefully about Zuo Xiang, she seemed to have heard of him somewhere, but she couldn't get up for a while.
By the way, I think of it, Zuo Xiang is the emperor's favorite minister, and he is also a good person praised by the people, although he is only twenty-eight years old, he is upright, and he is very old-fashioned, all the cases he accepts, no matter how big the other party's official position is, how hard the backstage, he dares to offend, dare to bring that person to justice, it is because of his integrity that the emperor will appreciate him, and the people will love him so much.
She had heard all of these things mentioned by the girls in Yishui Pavilion, and at that time she still felt that there was no such perfect man in this world, but now it seems that her idea is right.
In Shengjing City, everyone knows that he and the emperor's favorite sister, Princess Anle are a couple, although they have not yet been married, but they are often seen playing in Shengjing City.
Thinking of this, Jiang Liuli sneered, his fiancée had been waiting for him at home for three years, but he was playing with another woman in Shengjing, is this the so-called busy with government affairs?
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Duan Ruoxi saw her suddenly gloomy face, and asked curiously, could it be that her words made her unhappy?
"Have you ever thought that he has a new love in the past three years? That's why I didn't go back to see you? Although I don't want to tell her the truth, I should always let her be prepared, otherwise when she suddenly sees Zuo Xiang with other women, she will be hit even harder.
"Impossible, Brother Mingyuan won't be like this." Duan Ruoxi vetoed it without even the slightest hesitation.
"Men will change, even if they really love you at home, but after three years, it is inevitable that they will feel lonely, and when they meet someone who cherishes each other, they will take the initiative to approach." Jiang Liuli continued to say cruelly, she had to face this matter.
"Impossible, Brother Mingyuan won't do this to me." Although Duan Ruoxi still said this, his tone was no longer as confident as just now.
"I'd rather believe that there are ghosts in the world than believe in the man's broken mouth, you, it's still too simple." Jiang Liuli said with a sigh, she didn't want to break them up, she just wanted to remind her, don't believe in men so much, otherwise it will only be her who will be hurt.
In fact, she also hoped that this was just a rumor in the market, and it was not Qin Mingyuan's true thoughts, but things should not be thought about too beautifully, otherwise it would only hurt more.
