They hurried at night, arrived at a small county town before dawn, and found an inn to rest.

Qing Huan is still unsettled, always restless, and sleeps unsteadily in a vague way, so he finally got to noon, ate some food at random, and set off again.

The coachman said a lot on the way, Qing Huan understood, the secret guard found out early on that someone was following Li Yan, and last night everyone deliberately pretended to relax their vigilance and led them to attack.

This coachman is also a member of the secret guards, pretending to be a coachman to protect Qinghuan and them.

Qing Huan felt that he was a little troubled, and they all knew it in their hearts, but they were still stupidly worried about Li Yan's safety. When he was resting in the afternoon, Qing Huan went to find Li Yan.

She hasn't spoken to Li Yan since she left last night.

She walked over to her, "So you all know that I'm doing too much. ”

Li Yan spoke at this time, "You are a superfluous person. ”

Qing Huan didn't get angry when he heard his words, but just smiled and said, "Then what were you doing in such a hurry last night?" ”

"I don't want to owe favors."

After hearing this, Qing Huan no longer looked at him, but turned to look up at the sky, and said in a gentle tone: "I know that you want to drive me away, since I decided to follow, there is no reason to leave." I'll go to Bashan with you, and when you settle down, it's not too late for you to rewrite your letter of resignation. ”

Li Yan didn't react, Qing Huan looked back at him and said, "I promised Chu Yi that you wouldn't leave when you were in trouble." Think of it as what I did for Chu Yi. Don't bother to chase me out, for when you're settled, I'll be gone. After speaking, he left, regardless of whether Li Yan replied or not.

Li Yan looked at her departing back and sighed helplessly.

The road back seems to be a lot easier, and Agu sent food to the past, and Li Yan no longer refused.

Qing Huan has not been in the past since then, just watching from afar. It was winter, the weather was getting colder, and Qinghuan felt a little cold when sitting in the car.

Li Yan was still wearing thin prison clothes, she looked distressed, and when she passed by a town, she bought some winter clothes, and took the better ones to the Zhao brothers, and the worse ones to Li Yan.

Originally, I wanted Agu to send it over, but Agu refused to go that day, "He put a shelf for me every day, so I didn't want to go." ”

Qing Huan tried to persuade him, so he had to send it himself. first exchanged a few words with the Zhao brothers, and then handed him the clothes through the prisoner car.

Li Yan was still sitting, and this time he didn't deliberately turn his head not to look at her, but looked at her in a daze.

Qing Huan was a little inexplicable, "Look at what I'm doing, quickly change your clothes." It's getting colder and colder now. ”

After saying that, I handed him my clothes and was about to leave. Li Yan grabbed her hand, "You haven't delivered food for a few days." “

Qing Huan turned his back to him and thought, has this person finally figured it out? Qing Huan wanted to scold him very much, but endured it and wanted to break free from his hand and leave.

Helplessly, Li Yan grabbed it tightly, with some apology in his tone: "Qinghuan, you can send food in the future." ”

When Qing Huan heard this, his heart softened completely, but he still turned his back to him, "You don't eat what I sent, what am I sending it for?" ”

"I was confused before, you forgive me."

The corners of Qing Huan's eyes were a little moist, and he turned his head to look at him, and saw that his eyes were blazing, and he looked a little nervous, as if Qing Huan would not forgive him.

Qing Huan burst out laughing, and at the same time tears fell, saying, "You idiot......"

He could no longer speak, and let the tears fall.

Li Yan stretched out his hand, gently wiped away her tears, and said softly: "Qinghuan, it was my fault that I let you be wronged." I'm not going to drive you away again, don't cry, okay? ”

Qing Huan heard him say this, knowing that he really didn't make trouble, he was happy, and hurriedly wiped his tears with his sleeve, afraid that he would be seen as a joke.

"Okay, it's up to you, I'll deliver food in the future. Put your clothes on. I went back. “

Seeing that she had forgiven herself, Li Yan smiled happily at her.

Qing Huan looked at the bearded face, the unkempt hair, the shabby prison clothes, the wrist strangled with bloodied bracelets, and the once personable son, who was reduced to a prisoner at this time, but still smiled so gently, Qing Huan knew that he would never be able to get out of this scene.

After a few days, the Zhao brothers were sent to the end point, and they had to be escorted by two other officials locally.

After the two brothers dealt with it, they came out to say goodbye to Qing Huan, and Zhao Da said to Qing Huan: "Madam, my two brothers can only be sent here." I hope that Mrs. will take care of her on the way forward. “

Qing Huan took out some silver to thank the Zhao brothers, and the two of them thanked each other for their kindness.

Qing Huan then went to inquire about the person who took over, took some silver and went to do it, who knew that these two people were ruffians and hooligans, and somehow mixed up with an official errand, and after listening to Qing Huan's words, one of them said: "Little lady, on such a cold day, this money is not enough for my two brothers to buy wine and drink." “

Qing Huan hurriedly said: "Two adults, wait for me to send more tomorrow, and trouble the two adults to make it convenient." “

The other was even more frivolous, and directly came to take Qinghuan's hand and said, "Why should the little lady suffer with that prisoner, how good it is to have food and drink with my two brothers." “

Qing Huan couldn't avoid it, "Thanks to the love of the adults, since the folk girl is married to him, she must be loyal to him." Please don't be embarrassed. ”

One of them spat at her and said disdainfully: "Lao Tzu touches you to look up to you, and I don't know each other yet, if you don't send more tomorrow, then don't blame our brothers for not helping." ”

Qing Huan agreed again and again, and fled as if flying.

When she returned to the inn, she was also shocked, and she thought, "These two people don't know how far to escort, if they keep doing this, what should I do?" She hurried around the room, but there was nothing she could do.

Later, Qinghuan told Ah Gu, and Ah Gu angrily said that he had to beat them up.

Qing Huan grabbed her and said, "Don't offend them, it's a big deal to send more money." ”

Agu snorted and said, "It's useless for people like them to give more money, unless they beat them hard." ”

"Okay, I'll send some money tomorrow, if it still doesn't work, it's not too late for you to beat them up again." Agu gave up.

On the second day, Qinghuan brought some more money and bought some wine and meat to send over.

The official who offended her yesterday saw her coming, and still made a gesture to hug her, and said, "Little lady, as long as you serve our brothers comfortably, we don't want this money."

Qing Huan couldn't dodge, he was hugged by him, he was very flustered, and said while struggling: "The folk girls are all broken, I'm afraid that the two adults will be dirty." “

At this time, another person also pounced on her and grabbed her feet. At this time, Qing Huan couldn't move his hands and feet, panicked in his heart, couldn't care about anything else, and began to shout.

One of them slapped her and said fiercely, "Stinky girl, dare to scream." Lao Tzu tells you that Lao Tzu here is the sky, and no one can control it. “

Qing Huan struggled desperately, but it still didn't help. They tore her clothes indiscriminately and tried to assault her.

After Ah Gu heard her say it yesterday, she was not at ease, so she secretly followed her today, she hid outside the door, heard Qing Huan shouting inside, and rushed in regardless of it.

Ah Gu, who suddenly broke in, interrupted the movements of the two people, and at first startled them, and when he turned around and saw Ah Gu, one of them smiled proudly and said, "There is another one, now it's okay, one of our brothers." “

After speaking, he smiled and pounced on Agu. Ah Gu had some punches and kicks, and kicked the man in the crotch, and the man immediately curled up in pain and fell to the ground.

At this time, another person who was watching the play next to him threw away Qing Huan and rushed towards Ah Gu with his teeth and claws.

Agu dodged sideways, grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it on the man's head.

The man was smashed squarely, and one fell to the ground, and Ah Gu hurriedly came over and pulled Qing Huan up and ran out when he saw this. At this time, Qing Huan's clothes were not neat, but he couldn't take care of so much, and the two ran back quickly. The two men slowed down and chased after them.

Agu pulled Qing Huan to run out of breath, but Qing Huan was physically exhausted, so he couldn't run and run, and the two were still chasing, seeing that the distance was getting closer and closer.

Qing Huan really couldn't run, panting and said to Ah Gu: "I can't run, you hurry back and call the coachman." “

Agu didn't want to leave her, but she really couldn't do it, stumbling slower and slower. Qing Huan let go of Ah Gu's hand and said, "Don't go quickly." ”

Ah Gu had no choice but to leave Qinghuan behind and quickly run back to find the coachman.

Qing Huan fell to the ground, and after a while, the two rushed up, one grabbed her hand, and the other slapped her fiercely.

The force of this slap was so great that Qing Huan only felt a fishy smell in his mouth and buzzing in his ears. The man said viciously, "Stinky, why didn't you run away?" Give back your face. ”

After speaking, he kicked Qing Huan in the chest again, and Qing Huan was kicked out of a short distance, and he was uncomfortable.

At this time, although there were people coming and going on the street, they all looked like they had nothing to do with themselves, and they all gathered around to watch the excitement, and some people pointed at Qinghuan's untidy clothes.

Qing Huan buried her head deeply, but one person pinched her chin and pulled her over, so that she faced everyone, the man said: "Everyone can see clearly, this stinky girl was caught stealing people by our brothers, annoyed and angry, hit me with a teacup, you look at my head, what it looks like." ”

Qing Huan only felt very humiliated, closed his eyes, and did not explain.

At this time, a nun rushed out of the crowd watching the excitement next to her, pushed away the person who was pinching Qinghuan's chin, and said angrily: "You must be a bloody spurt." She's not that kind of person. ”

Qing Huan opened her eyes and saw a nun, protecting her in front of her, confronting the two officials.

At this time, other nuns in the crowd also came out to help this nun protect Qinghuan. The two officials were arrogant and shouted that they wanted to pull Qinghuan to see the official and let the official master comment on it.

A few nuns stopped and pushed with the two men.

Then the coachman arrived, with a whip in his hand, and swung it at one of them, with all his might.

I saw that the man was hit in the right cheek, and in an instant, a bloody mark bulged, and even his eyes were swollen. Just as he was about to resist, the coachman whipped his hand again, and the blood poured out through his clothes, and the man fell to the ground groaning loudly in pain. Seeing that the situation was not good, the other person ran away, shouting as he ran: "You wait for Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu will bring someone to arrest you in a while." ”

When the coachman made a move, several nuns helped Qing Huan aside to avoid being injured by mistake.

After the man ran away, Agu came out of breath. At a glance, she saw Qing Huan surrounded by nuns, so she walked over, but when she approached, a different expression appeared on her face, and she stared at one of the nuns in amazement. The nun smiled and said, "Miss Agu, don't come unharmed." ”

Ah Gu hesitated for a while before saying, "Miss Chu Yi, this is ......"

Qing Huan was shocked at this time, ignoring his injuries, and turned sideways to look at the nun. What came into my eyes was that beautiful face, the gentle woman's face, it was really Chu Yi.

Chu Yi smiled at her, "Poor Nifa forgets the dust." ”

Qing Huan trembled and hugged her. Chu Yi gently patted her back and said, "Madam, hurry up and go back." You've got wounds. “

When Ah Gu heard this, he remembered the coat he brought, so he hurriedly put it on Qing Huan and said, "Madam, let's go back and talk about it." Chu ..... forget the dust and go back with us. “

Chu Yi nodded with a smile, said something to his companion, and hurriedly followed Agu back to the inn.
