An ordinary carriage, accompanied by seven or eight guards, walked on a road to the national capital.

"Miss, this time I invited Old Man Ma to join the Qiao Family Chamber of Commerce, I didn't expect it to be so smooth. Go back and tell the master, and the master must be very happy. A maid, her name is Xiaohua, she said to a young lady in the car.

"Today's Qiao family, the status in the national capital is getting higher and higher, and we have the protection of the second prince behind us, Old Man Ma is a visionary, he will not agree. "Qiao Bingbing, the eldest lady of the Qiao Family Chamber of Commerce.

"When the second prince becomes the monarch, our Qiao Family Chamber of Commerce will be more powerful in the future, which one will not give us the Qiao Family Chamber of Commerce face. Xiaohua said with a smile.

"Xiaohua, you are not allowed to say such things in the future. Qiao Bingbing glared at Xiaohua, the monarch is not a topic of nonsense.

"Yes, miss. Xiaohua felt like she was talking too much.

"Escort Li, where have we been?" Qiao Bingbing asked in the carriage.

"Miss, it's time to seal the capital. It's less than a day's journey from the country. "Escort Li's name is Li Ming, and he is a good hand in Qiao's family. This time escorted Qiao Bingbing out to run errands, he was the most effective servant.

"Hmm! hurry up, we need to get to the capital before dark tomorrow. "This time I went out, it was more secretive. The trips were carried out in ordinary carriages, and they were the least manpowered. Qiao Bingbing has a heavy responsibility, and he still has the letter of the old man of the Ma family in his hand, it can't be robbed by outsiders, otherwise it will affect the layout of many major events.

"Yes, miss. Guarding Li listened to the order, he strengthened his vigilance, and the speed of his journey increased.

"Big brother, why haven't you seen the carriage arrive yet?" In a forest, a gang of dozens of people set up an ambush early.

"Don't rush. The leader said calmly.

"Big brother, this time I have completed the task, and my eldest brother will definitely be promoted after I go back, and my little brother would like to congratulate my eldest brother first. ”

"Don't worry, my brothers work hard for me, and I will never treat everyone badly after I rise step by step. "Hearing the ascension, the person who led him was in a very good mood.

"The younger brother represents the other brothers, and I would like to thank the eldest brother in advance. "This kid can't do it, but he's a complete ass.

The journey was very smooth, and Li Huwei, as a veteran, always felt unsteady in his heart. After all, the stakes are very high this time, and it is the eldest lady of the Qiao family who is escorting. The general task will be a little wavy, but it will pass smoothly. This time the situation is special, and the distance from the national capital is getting closer and closer, this calm makes Li Huwei inexplicably uneasy.

"Stop. "The road in front of me was narrow, one-third less than the width of the avenue, and the sides of the road were overgrown with weeds, making it ideal for the enemy to hide.

"Escort Li, why did you stop?" Qiao Bingbing asked in the carriage.

"Miss, the road ahead is complicated, and for the sake of caution, I would like to send someone to check it out. "Li guards this veteran and uses his own experience to do things.

"Good. "Li Huwei and Qiao Bingbing have gone out to run errands more than once, and this veteran's experience has avoided many dangers. She absolutely believed in Escort Li's strength and judgment.

"You go over and take a look. "Guard Li commanded one person.

"Yes. The man dismounted and walked forward.

"Big brother, have you been discovered?" Seeing that the carriage stopped, someone came to investigate.

"Li Mingke is a veteran, and his experience is by no means ordinary. Let's bring masks, since we're here, let's show up!" The leader covered his face with a black cloth, and after he appeared, dozens of people all appeared, blocking Qiao Bingbing's way back for a while.

"Sure enough, there was an ambush. Escort Li gave the others a look, and he came to the front of the carriage.

"What's going on?" Qiao Bingbing felt something strange.

"Miss, there's an ambush. One of the guards said.

"It seems that the news has leaked. Qiao Bingbing didn't panic, she was very calm. This operation is quite secretive. Someone can know the news, it seems that there is an inner ghost. Qiao Bingbing began to think, she didn't care about the robber in front of her, what she cared about was the inner ghost.

"I don't know which way of the hero?" said Li Huwei with his fists clenched.

"We're not good guys, we're horse thieves of this generation. Who are you?" The leader speaks of himself as a horse thief, in order not to reveal his identity.

"Oh?" Escort Li's eyes lit up, it didn't seem to be a horse thief. The horse thief will not come up and light up, the style of the horse thief is to ask for money and women. Li Huwei knew that the group of people in front of him were coming for them.

"It turns out that Ma Ye here, since Ma Ye is here, it is naturally for money, there are some silver taels here, which is considered a meeting gift for my brother. "Escort Li is delaying time, firstly, to look at the environment, and secondly, he has arranged for someone to go back to report the news early, and tell the Qiao family the time of the return, so that it can also be convenient for the Qiao family to arrange someone to pick up.

"That's a lot of money. The leader weighed it a few times.

"What's in the carriage?" asked the leader.

"In the carriage is my wife. Escort Li covered Qiao Bingbing.

"Ma'am, is that a woman?" said the man at the head of the man, his smile was evil. If he wants to pretend to be a horse thief, he must learn to be like.

"Let the little lady come out and let's see. ”

"Master Ma, this is not in accordance with the rules!" Li Huwei saw that the person led by him was slowly approaching him, and the saber in his hand was already ready.

"I want money, I want women. ”

"Do you want to draw a knife?" The leader approached step by step, he knew that Li Huwei was talking nonsense with his eyes open, and he was also making a show. But this scene can't be done too long, so as not to cause accidents.

"Master Ma, the money can be discussed again, my lady, you can't have ideas. "Escort Li was not afraid from beginning to end, he kept communicating, just stalling for time.

"I'm going to have an idea. "The person at the head is only three meters away from Escort Li.

"Then I can only kill you. Guard Li jumped off his horse, the saber in his hand already unsheathed, and fell straight down on the head of the leader.

"You think you're going to kill me. The leader jumped over one by one and dodged the knife of Escort Li.

Li Huwei's sword was taken by surprise and could be avoided calmly, and Li Huwei knew that the martial arts of the leader were definitely not under him.

"You protect the young lady. After Guard Li gave the order, he began to enter battle mode.

"How did Madame become Mademoiselle?" said the leader with a smile.

"Horse thief, how can he be a real horse thief?" asked Li Huwei rhetorically.

"Brothers, the money must be taken, and the women must be taken away. Kill!" the leader commanded, and a dagger appeared in his hand.

"Kill!" the group of so-called 'horse thieves' ran towards Qiao Bingbing's carriage.

"Miss, the horse thieves are coming at us. Xiaohua looked out through the window of the carriage, and she was a little flustered.

Qiao Bingbing's face was calm, she closed her eyes, as if everything was under control.

"Brother Chu, it seems that there is a fight ahead?" Coincidentally, Chu Han and Xin'er happened to come over.

"Let's go over and see. ”

"Hmm. ”
