Chapter 278 - Card Check

(Cat flutter Chinese) Coral said as he untied the soft whip he carried behind his waist, hid it under the seat, and ordered the coachman to set off.

Wen Wanrong realized that Sango's clothes today were similar to those on weekdays, but they were different from Qin Yang's practice clothes, she was slightly stunned, and subconsciously asked, "You, know martial arts?" ”

Coral nodded, pursed her lips and smiled embarrassedly, and explained softly: "Don't laugh at the lady, the slave maid used to be a little skilled in the drama troupe, and the class owner said that the girl's family was not good in the opera garden, and then I met Sister Holly, and at that time the girl in the mansion recruited martial arts, I thought that the old lady and the second master would dislike me, but I didn't expect the two masters to say anything, and then I learned that Sister Holly spoke for me, and she was a noble person of the slave." ”

No wonder Holly handed over all the big and small things to Coral, it turned out that there was still this relationship, Wen Wanrong nodded meaningfully, and asked, "You followed Holly as soon as you entered the mansion?" ”

Coral said yes.

Wen Wanrong snorted lightly and didn't speak again, usually she would probably talk a few more words to Sango, but now she was not in any mood, and Fang Cai's panic and worry became more and more intense as the carriage moved away.

"Coral ......" The moment Wen Wanrong opened her mouth, the other party understood what she meant.

Coral preemptively interrupted in a low voice: "Madam, Sister Holly outside the city has been arranged, and the old lady specially explained to ensure that you are safe." If you retreat now, the slave and maid will accompany you back, but if you want to go out of the city in the future, you are afraid that you will not be able to escape. ”

The reason is understood, but Wen Wanrong can't be calm and rational, she looked at her hands, thinking that just now she had hugged the child's soft little body and kissed the overheated little face, and in a blink of an eye, the old lady's smile and her daughter's coquettishness were all locked in the high palace wall, and her heart couldn't help but tighten.

"I ......" Wen Wanrong looked up and wanted to say something, but she didn't come to spun around for a while, cutting off all her thoughts.

She didn't know how she had fallen, but she heard Coral call "Madame" twice, the voice buzzing like in a jar, sometimes faint and sometimes clear.

Sango didn't expect the sudden situation, lifted the curtain, and said eagerly to the driver: "Turn around!" Go to the hospital first and call the doctor to come up and see what's going on! ”

The coachman hesitated for a moment, but instead of stopping, he added a whip to the horse, which made the horse run faster.

"You!" Coral grits a mouthful of silver teeth, and if it weren't for the mission, he would have beaten people with a whip.

"Miss Sango, our top priority is to get out of the city, you tell Madame to bear with me first." The coachman frowned, and his voice was fast, "Out of the city, take the small road, wait for the dark to find a village to rest, and then find a barefoot doctor to see the disease, you can rest assured, we will take a shortcut closer than the official road nearly half the way, to the next town in less than two days." ”

All the words were said by the other party, Coral choked for a moment, vigorously threw down the car curtain, and said angrily: "You'd better not be able to get to the next town in two days, otherwise Mrs. has three long and two short, and when you get to the second master, I can't spare you!" ”

The coachman smiled helplessly: "Miss Sango, Mrs. really has three long and two short, I am more afraid of being more anxious, no one knows the second master's temperament, no one in the mansion, Mrs. is the person on the tip of his heart, even if he lends me a hundred guts, he doesn't dare to joke with Mrs. ”

"Don't be poor, hurry up!" Coral stabbed the driver twice with a whip through the curtain, and looked at him with great displeasure.

It was only two quarters of an hour, and the speed of the carriage gradually slowed down, and Coral covered Wen Wanrong with a thin quilt, lifted the curtain of the carriage, and asked in her heart, "Have you arrived?" ”

The coachman didn't speak, gave a look, and pointed to the gate of the checkpoint with a horsewhip, and three of the six guards blocked the exit of the city, whether it was a merchant or a common man, they all lined up and waited for inspection.

The common people whispered, dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, the merchants and nobles complained, and some people sat in the carriage, regardless of the said: "Yesterday was good, today how to say and check, there is no notice, we are in a hurry to eat and drink!" ”

One person spoke out, and a second person sneered: "Who knows, the peaceful life is comfortable." ”

As soon as the second person's voice fell, someone immediately coaxed: "Ouch, you are in a hurry to drink and eat, this is in a hurry to deliver the child, don't you delay the big and small!" ”

There was immediately laughter around them, as if they were not chatting, but sharing the same enemy and damaging the defenders, not to mention how happy they were.

But the damage is the loss, and the guards all tense their faces and check as usual without making a sound.

Coral lifted the curtain, very tacit understanding and the driver looked at each other, the meaning was clear, the driver did not turn around, slowly parked the car behind and lined up.

As she got closer and closer to the guards, Coral glanced at Wen Wanrong, whose face was slightly slower and fell into even breathing, from time to time to observe the situation outside from the crack in the car curtain, and suddenly her heart was bottomless, she leaned forward and asked in a low voice, "Is it okay?" ”

The coachman replied confidently: "The girl will cooperate in a while." ”

Coral oops.

When their car arrived in front of the guards, the coachman took the initiative to lift the curtain, make a gesture of please, spoke with a Cangzhou accent, and said with a frank smile: "Official, my sister is seriously ill, and my mother is also sick in her hometown, and I want to take a look before I die." ”

"It's such a coincidence, they're all sick?" The guard looked suspiciously at the car, one person was nested in the quilt and did not move, and the other sat next to him, squinting at the tall guard, his curly body shrunk into a ball, as if he was very scared, and he knew that he was either a madman or a fool by looking at his expression.

The coachman looked at the sight, sighed, and his tone revealed a little desolation: "Cheap, let you laugh, I went back to Cangzhou for the New Year last year, and I fell at home, kowtowed, and fell into the root of the disease." ”

As he spoke, he pulled his sleeve and wiped the corners of his eyes, but the guards were unmoved, and pointed to the lying man: "Wake her up?" ”

The coachman seemed to have expected it, and with a sigh of heck, he got into the car, turned his back to the outside and gave Coral a look, and roared, "I don't know what is dead or alive! What are you doing so close! I also want to dye my face pockmarked! ”

As soon as he roared, not only the people who checked, but also the people who set up the checkpoints and the people queuing around them all heard it, and then there was the wail of Coral Crying Daddy and Mother.

The fool didn't know what was going on, but understood that everyone had heard it clearly, and the guards immediately covered their mouths and noses with their hands, and asked in disgust, "What disease does she have?" ”

The coachman turned around and replied with a sad face: "The doctor said that it could be smallpox or rubella, but after taking medicine for a few days, it didn't get better." ”

"Let's go! Walk! Walk! Unable to avoid it like a plague god, this ordinary blue-shed carriage was driven away from the bustling capital.

When she left the city gate, there was a lot of talk behind her, some saying that it was pitiful and some were unlucky, in short, no matter what she said, Sango's hanging heart finally let go, and she stroked her chest.

The carriage drove for a while, and the speed gradually increased, and the noise outside the carriage gradually faded away, and slowly it became inaudible.

Coral breathed a sigh of relief, her legs were a little weak, and she turned her gaze, and she didn't know when Wen Wanrong had opened her eyes.

"Madam, I have wronged you." Coral didn't know how much she heard, so she quickly apologized and explained, "We thought the East City Gate was fine, but we didn't expect the sudden increase in guards to check and release, so we had to ......."

"I know, I woke up when I was in line, I just got dizzy and didn't want to open my eyes." Wen Wanrong moved, struggled to get up, and interrupted softly, "Sango, give me a cup of hot tea." ”

Coral helped her up, then quickly poured her tea and handed it forward.

Wen Wanrong drank a sip of hot water, it seemed that her internal organs had stretched a lot, she eased her mind, reached out and lifted the window screen to glance out, and asked, "Where are we?" ”

Coral replied truthfully: "On the outskirts of the eastern city, take a detour first, and then go north." Madame, don't worry, our people have already arranged accommodation in the village where we are staying, but the conditions are simple, can you stay for one night? ”

The last sentence is like a request.

"There's nothing that can't be compromised." Wen Wanrong handed the cup back, lay down again, chuckled, and closed her eyes.

She thought, no matter how simple the conditions are, they are better than the military tent in Jiangrong.

When Coral saw her fall asleep, she was afraid of waking up, so she simply went out to sit in a row with the coachman, and there was no word for her.

There were some bumps in the car, Wen Wanrong didn't fall asleep for a long time, so she should close her eyes and recuperate.

However, I don't know if she was too nervous or if there was something really wrong, but as she talked to the coachman, she was silent, and after a while, Coral came in and made a squirming noise.

"What's going on?" When Wen Wanrong opened her eyes, she saw that Coral was holding a soft whip in her hand, her body was tense, and she looked like a fierce soldier, as if she was ready to rush out at any time.

"What's wrong?" Wen Wanrong's intuition gained the upper hand, got up from the quilt, and couldn't help but ask.

Coral stared at the open window screen, and said without squinting: "Madam, there is a group of people from the side who have been following us, not close or far, very suspicious. ”

Wen Wanrong frowned, and asked without enough energy: "We were found out of the city?" ”

Coral shook her head: "Probably not." ”

"What about our people?" Wen Wanrong then asked, "Didn't you say that the outside of the city has already been arranged?" ”

"It's arranged, but the old lady said that it was best not to startle the snakes, especially in the suburbs, where there is a commotion, it is easy to attract officers and soldiers." Coral stared outside, "Don't worry, the slaves and maids have ringing arrows, and as long as they have bad intentions, our people will immediately appear to sweep them." ”

Wen Wanrong knew that the old lady was thoughtful, and since she had already made arrangements, she was worried that no matter how much she had, it would be useless, so she thought for a moment and said, "First see whether it is friend or foe, don't make any misunderstandings." ”

When she said this, there was another voice in her heart, maybe this group of people who followed not far away were sent by King Jing, otherwise how could they explain that they had found the target, and they followed all the way but didn't do it?

Thinking of this, Wen Wanrong was not so flustered, but the evil thing is that she was very sleepy today, and she stared outside for a while, seeing that the other party did not move, she didn't want to stare anymore, and her head was on the pillow again.

When she woke up, she was still in the carriage, she didn't know how long she had been asleep, and in a trance she heard a cow barking outside, and then a familiar voice sounded beside her: "Madam, are you awake?" We have arrived at the village where we have settled, and the slave maid sees that your face is not very good today, so why don't you invite a Jianghu Langzhong to take a look, so as not to delay the condition. ”
