Chapter 13: Your People

Although Xiao Yurui was fighting with several people at the same time, he had never neglected the situation on the side of the carriage for a moment, and the scene just now naturally did not escape his eyes, and when he saw the dark arrow flying above Ling Yuxin's head, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, so he decisively gave up the original plan to leave a living mouth to find out who was behind the scenes, and his subordinates showed no mercy, only to see the sword flash, and the assassins around him fell to the ground one after another, and then he flew to the carriage and shot down a few cold arrows that shot at him, As soon as he picked up Ling Yuxin by the waist and jumped on a horse next to him, the reins flickered, and the horse galloped forward, Xiao Yurui held Ling Yuxin stiff in one hand and hugged Ling Yuxin in front of him, and kept swinging his sword with the other hand to shoot down the cold arrows shot in the woods, and after a while, the horse rushed out of the crowd and crossed the rain of arrows.

Ling Yuxin's mind was blank for a while, only to see Xiao Yurui fly over all of a sudden, and then he felt that his body was soaring into the air, and then he sat on the horse, followed by a metal crash in his ears.

At this moment, when he found that there was no one in front of him, he slowly came back to his senses, and subconsciously looked back, and saw that there were many black-clothed people who were fighting with each other who were leaving their opponents behind and wanting to come in their own direction, and there were also many black-clothed people rushing out in their direction in the woods where they had just shot the dark arrow, but at the same time, many guards and other black-clothed people stopped them.

Soon, the figure behind him became smaller and smaller, and it was not until it completely disappeared that Ling Yuxin turned back again. Watching the trees on both sides move back rapidly, and feeling the stinging sensation of the wind blowing on her face, she gradually forgot her previous shock and fear, and produced a sense of exhilaration, and the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously.

Xiao Yurui felt the originally stiff delicate body in his arms suddenly relax, and couldn't help but look at Ling Yuxin with some astonishment, but he didn't see the nervousness and fear that he thought should appear on her face, but instead an excited smile, and a trace of surprise couldn't help but pass through his eyes.

After galloping for a long time, Xiao Yurui gradually slowed down his horse's speed.

As the horses ran slower and slower, Ling Yuxin gradually woke up from the excitement of galloping on the horse, and began to think about all kinds of talents.

Xiao Yurui saw the change in the expression on Ling Yuxin's face, and knew that she must be thinking about something, so he didn't bother silently, and just let the horse move forward slowly.

After thinking for a while, Ling Yuxin finally sorted out some thoughts, and was about to open her mouth to ask Xiao Yurui, when she suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves behind her, and when she turned around, she saw several black-clothed masked people riding towards them, she immediately became nervous, but when the group of people got a little closer, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Yurui took in all her reactions, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Xin'er, aren't you afraid?" ”

Ling Yuxin turned around and glanced at Xiao Yurui, then pouted and turned her head back, as if she was quite dissatisfied with him asking this question, "What are you afraid of?" It's all your people, not assassins, so what's there to be afraid of? ”

Xiao Yurui was even more surprised, "How do you know that they are my people, not assassins?" ”

Ling Yuxin pursed her lips and said, "Although they are all dressed in black and masked and tightly wrapped, they all have an extra black belt on their left arm, I think you are also afraid that you will not be able to distinguish between friend and foe in a scuffle!" ”

A hint of appreciation appeared in Xiao Yurui's eyes, "Xin'er is really observant, but how do you know that they are my people and not arranged by others?" ”

"Because when they rushed out, in addition to dealing with those assassins, there were two other people who went to help you and Bai Zhu respectively, but I didn't see them help Li Qingshan and Wei Chifeng or anyone else!"

Xiao Yurui just wanted to praise her a few more words, but suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance ahead, and it was coming from two different directions, and he couldn't help frowning slightly.

At this time, one of the black-clothed people behind him suddenly spoke, "Childe, the southeast should be safe, you go first, and we will intercept those two groups of people." ”

Xiao Yurui hesitated for a moment, then nodded at the man in black who spoke, "Be careful." Then he immediately turned his horse's head and galloped toward the southeast.

Ling Yuxin naturally didn't have Xiao Yurui's ears, so she didn't hear any sound, and she was a little dazed when she listened to their conversation, and when Xiao Yurui turned her horse's head to the southeast, she looked back at the black-clothed man behind her for some reason, only to see that they were divided into two ways and galloped in two different directions, and then thought about their conversation just now, and then guessed that they might have heard the movement in the distance and found that someone was coming towards them, so they let her and Xiao Yurui leave first, and they went separately to intercept the two groups of people in the distance. But after figuring this out, she became more and more surprised: could it be two more groups of assassins who came to kill her? How can so many people want to kill themselves!

However, when the horse galloped again, the excitement of galloping freely surged again, and Ling Yuxin quickly left all kinds of thoughts behind.

The two of them rode on the forest and mountain road and galloped wildly, and they didn't know how long it was, only to feel that the trees in their eyes were gradually decreasing, and then a little further, the eyes suddenly opened up, looking at it, it was actually a canyon like a kettle, a stream meandered down from far and near, as if the river channel at the spout of the pot was collected very narrow, and the river channel at the place where the body of the pot was much wider, looking into the distance, the mountains on both sides of the river, the scenery was picturesque.

After Ling Yuxin lost her memory, she had only seen a lot of poems and sentences describing the beautiful scenery and beautiful scenery in the book, and seeing this scenery with her own eyes was the first time after the amnesia, and she couldn't help but shine with her eyes and let out a heartfelt admiration. Seeing her like this, Xiao Yurui immediately slowed down his horse and walked slowly along the stream.

After a while, Ling Yuxin heard the sound of "whooshing" water in her ears, the further forward she went, the louder it became, and it didn't take long for the waterfall on the cliff in front of her to faintly see that it was cascading down like a silver belt, which was extremely gorgeous and magnificent.

Ling Yuxin couldn't help but exclaim excitedly, "Wow, it's so beautiful." ”

Xiao Yurui glanced at Ling Yuxin dotingly, then stopped his mount, hugged Ling Yuxin's hand a little hard, and then jumped off the horse with her in his arms, and gently put her down.

Before Ling Yuxin could react, her feet were already firmly on the ground, and she turned to look at Xiao Yurui blankly, but saw that he was also looking at herself with a smile in his eyes, and said softly: "Since you like it so much, then let's stay here for a while." ”

Ling Yuxin was stunned and looked at Xiao Yurui in a daze.

Xiao Yurui looked at the stunned face in front of him, the smile in his eyes was even worse, and then without waiting for Ling Yuxin to answer, he walked to the side of the stream and found a big rock to sit down, and then looked sideways at Ling Yuxin, who was still standing in place, and patted the rock under him with a smile.

Ling Yuxin came back to her senses at this time, hurriedly lifted her skirt and ran over quickly, sat next to Xiao Yurui, and gazed at the beautiful scenery in front of her with joy.

After a long time, Ling Yuxin retracted her gaze contentedly, and after thinking for a while, she looked sideways at Xiao Yurui, who had been looking at her quietly with a smile, and asked the question she couldn't figure out the most at the moment, "Why do so many people want to kill me?" Who has such a big enmity with me? ”

Xiao Yurui seemed to have guessed that she would ask this question, and he was not the slightest surprised, and still said calmly with a smile: "If I want to kill you, it doesn't necessarily mean that I have an enmity with you, just like you didn't necessarily offend someone who wanted to frame you in the first place." ”

Looking at Ling Yuxin's confused expression, Xiao Yurui said lightly: "Until now, the position of queen is still suspended!" And although your father is a good and honest official who is loved by the people, his uprightness has set up many enemies in the court. ”

Ling Yuxin's eyes gradually became a little clear and surprised, "So, those assassins want to kill me, it's not actually because of me, but because of the emperor and my father?" ”

Xiao Yurui smiled a little unfathomably, "Maybe, but not really." ”

Ling Yuxin showed a confused expression again.

"Actually, these are just my guesses, how many batches of assassins came today, and who sent them, I'm afraid it will only be possible to determine if they are caught alive." After Xiao Yurui paused, he turned to ask, "Xin'er, weren't you scared when you saw that scene just now?" ”

Ling Yuxin was stunned for a moment, recalling what had happened just now, and muttered, "It seems that I was a little scared at the beginning, but then I ...... It seems that he is not afraid. After saying this, she herself showed a blank expression, there were so many people who wanted to kill him just now, and what she saw in front of her were real fights with real knives and guns, and bloody corpses all over the ground, her daughter's family, the first time she encountered such a situation, it stands to reason that she should be very scared, how could this be!

Looking at Ling Yuxin's ever-changing expression, the complex color in Xiao Yurui's eyes gradually became richer.

While Ling Yuxin was stunned by her abnormal reaction, she was still constantly recalling the scenes of Shicai, trying to find the reason, but she seemed to suddenly remember something, her eyes were instantly clear, and she asked Xiao Yurui dissatisfiedly: "Cousin, why are you hiding from me?" Why did you never tell me you knew martial arts? ”

The complicated color in Xiao Yurui's eyes disappeared in an instant, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "Xin'er, why did you ask me if I knew martial arts?" I never said I didn't know martial arts! How to hide it! ”

Ling Yuxin's expression froze, thinking about it, it seemed to be the same, but it seemed that something was wrong, but she didn't know how to refute it, so she turned her head angrily. After a while, he turned his head and said angrily: "Okay, you're right, but you have to teach me martial arts." After a pause, he immediately continued: "You also want to teach me how to ride a horse." ”

Xiao Yurui's eyes immediately had a different color, and he stared at Ling Yuxin, but he couldn't catch any expression on her face other than anger and expectation, and after thinking for a moment, he asked, "Why do you want to learn martial arts and horseback riding?" ”
