Chapter 135: First Meeting
The year she met Li Qingyan, Princess Yingluan was fifteen years old.
It was her way back to the palace from the Red Sleeves.
She saw a man with a baby in his arms, begging for something from house to house.
That was Li Qingyan, who was only in his early twenties back then.
The infant child is a son who is not yet a year old.
At that time, Li Qingyan was not begging for food and clothing for himself, but begging for milk for his son.
Later, Zhu Luan learned that just three months ago, Li Qingyan's wife, who had been married since childhood, ran away shortly after giving birth to a child.
And the time they met, it was the fourth month that he was alone.
The man's other hand, which was not holding the child, clutched a cloth banner with the words "Cure for All Diseases".
looks like a down-and-out Jianghu Langzhong.
On the surface, it is.
The robes of the men who went from house to house to say good things were tattered, but they were clean. Although it is clean, it is still broken and difficult to look at.
Even if he is poor at the moment, it is not difficult to see that this man's background is probably not bad.
There are many such people in God's capital.
Soon after the establishment of the new dynasty, almost every day, there are old families extinguished and new upstarts are born.
Zhu Luan looked at him silently through the hat on his head and turned his head.
In the difficult situation, they still do not forget to keep their bodies tidy, such people often have strong self-esteem.
They often don't accept help from big families.
Zhu Luan lifted the hat on her head, although she didn't care about the issue of identity, but on the streets of Shendu, if she showed her face when she was alone, it would bring trouble to the people around her.
Yesterday's trip was relatively sudden, and it was expected that there should be no exposure, but this morning she wanted to walk alone on Shendu Street for a long time, so she restrained her breath and prepared to walk back to the palace by herself.
The man on the side of the road begged his neighbors and scrambled to coax the child in his arms, and on the other side of the road, a girl with a hat passed by him.
The moment when the two were about to pass by.
Zhu Luan's ears heard the sound of a baby's weak cry.
She pursed her lips, her steps a little heavy.
However, the next moment, her steps paused slightly.
Slightly stunned.
Not because of anything else, because just as she passed by him, the man who was in a hurry suddenly looked up at her.
He pursed his lips, as if he was hesitating about something, and the next moment, just as Zhu Luan was about to walk forward, he heard a very soft sound.
He said.
"Be careful."
Almost at the same time that sentence came. Zhu Luan's pupils shrank.
The mutation happened in an instant.
The sound of a tiny and almost negligible cracking of the air.
Blow arrows!
Zhu Luan's conditioned reflex was about to turn sideways, but he was halfway through the action, and the next moment he stood in place as if he was frozen.
There was a snort, and the very small sound of a poisonous needle entering the flesh came.
The man holding the child stood stunned in place, looked at the black blow arrow that pierced the woman's shoulder, and then looked at the child in his arms and suddenly hugged the child tightly with palpitations.
The next moment, he raised his head with a complicated expression and looked at the woman covering his shoulder.
In that position just now, if the woman dodged away, this poisoned arrow, which could be seen at a glance to be highly poisonous, would have hit the child in his arms!
"You ......"
He was about to speak, but a flash of lightning lit up in front of him.
It was a lightning-like sword light, rising like a scorching flame even in the bright day.
And with this sword light, there was a terrible scream.
Fifty steps away, on the top floor of the restaurant, a dark shadow fell from the sky.
Like a sack, the human body fell on the bluestone street with a heavy muffled sound.
Screams erupted from the crowd.
"Dead!"
"Murdered!"
The frightened people looked around and saw a woman standing with a sword.
"It's the woman!"
"No, it's so far away!"
"I saw it, and the man fell from the stairs after she drew her sword!"
The screams of the crowd drew the Janissaries patrolling the streets almost instantly.
The street resounded with the sound of clattering armor, and the people around him scattered like birds and beasts, and Zhu Luan looked at the man holding the child in place.
"Aren't you going to dodge?"
The man smiled bitterly, "I have nothing to lose, and what else is there to be afraid of." ”
"Yes......" Zhu Luan muttered.
The man stood in place with the skinny child in his arms, just staring at the poisoned arrow on Zhu Luan's shoulder with a complicated expression.
"I heard that you hurt people in the street! Don't put down your blade yet! ”
The roar of the forbidden army came, and he rudely pushed away the man standing in front of Zhu Luan.
Zhu Luan looked at a man who had just stood firm, and ignored the imposing forbidden army.
"How dare you, a cultivator, ......"
The big man in armor looked at the introverted cultivator in front of him, and such an attitude made the hearts of the forbidden army masters burn.
It also made the man holding the child lift a heart for the girl in front of him.
You must know that almost all of the forbidden troops patrolling in Shendu City are sons with family backgrounds, and more and more forbidden troops are coming when they hear about it.
The sight of tall forbidden soldiers in armor surrounding the petite woman is terrifying.
The man had heard the other populators gloating.
"This man is too ignorant......
"Listen to the voice of a woman?"
"Seeing that the forbidden army is still ignoring it like this?"
The forbidden army, who had not waited for a response for a long time, became more and more angry, and the forbidden army standing at the front of the squad leader raised the halberd in his hand.
"Girl......" The man clenched the cloth banner in his hand and was about to speak, but his voice was easily drowned out by the friction of the blade.
However, just when everyone thought that blood was going to be splattered on the spot again.
"People don't die." A cold female voice came from the forbidden army group.
The woman in front of her finally spoke.
"Not dead? What's that? The forbidden army at the forefront paused, and the blades in their hands did not stop.
However, in the next moment, the blades of all the forbidden troops stopped in the air as if they were frozen.
Because the woman in front of her finally took off her hat and threw it on the ground at will.
"What's wrong?" Looking at the forbidden soldiers who froze in place, there was a commotion among the onlookers.
The expected blood splatter did not come on the spot, but the crackling sound of the blades falling from the hands of the forbidden army.
"Temple...... Your Highness ......"
A dry voice came from the mouth of the forbidden army.
"What?" The people who didn't hear clearly were confused, but the next moment everyone's eyes widened in astonishment.
Because the tall figures that originally surrounded the girls were all shorter.
Led by the forbidden army at the front, it spread from the inside to the outside like a wave, and all the forbidden soldiers fell to their knees, revealing the figure of a girl standing alone in the middle.
The heads of all the forbidden soldiers couldn't be lowered, and the forbidden army with the appearance of the leader at the front almost collapsed to the ground.
It's like a stubble of leeks that have been cut.
