Chapter 50: Heroes Save Beauty
"Donor, the little monk asked all the senior brothers, they don't know who the woman in the maple forest was that day?"
After the novice came to explain the situation to them, he hurried away. When this kind of thing happens, they must be thoroughly investigated, the abbot has ordered before leaving, idle people are not allowed to enter the maple forest without permission, as a result, now someone sneaks in without everyone knowing, to the small one is lax management, today just let one person in, still within the controllable range, then he day, if something happens, disturb the nobles or others, they can't control it, and then a big disaster will come.
The abbot had said that the Maple Grove had been made a forbidden place, and no one except those he allowed to enter it was allowed to enter, otherwise......
It's going to be a mess.
He still remembered the helpless look on his face when the abbot spoke.
Yu Wu'er said that it was impossible not to be disappointed. In the past few days, while Xiao Shami helped her check who had entered the maple forest that day, she was not idle.
The hermit temple had many wings, and not only they lived, but there were also other people. In the past few days, she has visited them one by one, wanting to see if the second sister is among them.
However, there was little to gain.
"Madam, we have been living in the hermitage temple for a long time, and if we don't return home, I'm afraid we will ......."
On this day, after receiving the first letter from the people in the house, Liu Mei hesitated for a long time but persuaded.
Yu Wu'er sighed, and knew that she was indeed going home, so she could only give up looking for her second sister for the time being.
The Hou Mansion specially sent someone to pick it up, and the three masters and servants came down from the mountain and sat in the carriage on the way back to the house.
Yu Wu'er still kept thinking about her second sister.
If it was really her second sister, why did the second sister refuse to go home so close to them, was she worried or what?
In the past six years, although the eldest sister has refused to mention the second sister for a few words, she knows that the eldest sister misses the second sister very much like her.
Her parents died suddenly, the eldest sister was already in Prince Su's mansion at the time, the third brother had two rooms, and the second sister was one of her closest people. At that time, the second sister ran away from marriage and eloped, and even had to replace the second sister to marry the prince of Wenhou, and she didn't blame the second sister in her heart.
She just wants her second sister to come back, she is afraid that her second sister will suffer outside, and she is afraid that the person chosen by her second sister will not be good for her......
"Hiss-" Just thinking about it, the carriage stopped suddenly, and Liu Mei didn't have time to protect her, only Qingfeng instantly stretched out his hand.
She had knocked on a side edge in the carriage, and if it hadn't been for the breeze to help her block it, I'm afraid she would have broken her face.
Liu Mei angrily lifted the curtain. "How do you drive? Our ladyβ" I didn't know what I saw in the middle of the sentence, and my voice stuck in my throat and I couldn't say it anymore.
Qingfeng helped her wife, her face was indifferent. Yu Wu'er didn't notice, she only noticed Liu Mei's abnormality, and asked worriedly, "Liu Mei, what's wrong?" β
Liu Mei didn't dare to move at all, nor did she dare to answer her wife's words.
Now, she had a sword across her neck, sharp.
Outside, there are a lot of people around, all holding swords in their hands, and they look vicious, it is not difficult to see the identity of these people.
Brigand.
In the dignified capital, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, there are such lawless bandits, it is estimated that no one will believe this.
"The little lady in the car, come out quickly, we only rob money and not sex, cooperate well to ensure that you can go back one by one."
The person standing at the front outside, like the head of these bandits, said with a threatening smile.
As soon as these words came out, the other bandits also began to echo them.
"That's right, we just need money, and with money, there is naturally no shortage of women......"
"Little lady, I advise you to come down quickly, let's search your carriage, otherwise, we will have to do it......"
"Of course, if the little lady is willing to follow us, we will ...... Hey, hey, hey. β
ββ¦β¦β
Yu Wu'er sat in the carriage, her face pale.
Looking at the motionless willow eyebrows, and the breeze with low eyebrows and hanging heads, the groom outside didn't know what to do, they were all powerless people, and she had no other choice but to listen to them.
Hopefully, these bandits ......
"Yes, let's get out of the carriage and let my handmaid in first."
"Little lady, don't play any tricks, otherwise, my knife will only see blood......"
The bandit leader gave them a warning, and then looked up and motioned for the man in front of the carriage to take the knife that was placed on Liu Mei's neck.
Liu Mei is usually calm, this is facing the threat of life is also cold sweat wet all over the body, her face is pale, her legs are soft, seeing that the man's knife is withdrawn, she hurriedly returned to the carriage.
"Madame......"
Yu Wu'er froze, patted her cold hand, then glanced at Qingfeng and nodded to her.
Qingfeng helped her put on her hat, and the three of them got out of the carriage together.
After getting out of the carriage, Yu Wu'er looked at the person in the middle and said in a deep voice: "I hope the hero will talk about it." β
The man looked at her deeply and sneered. "It depends on my mood."
"Search!"
As soon as he gave the order, the others began to check the carriage.
Liu Mei held her wife's hand tightly, frightened in her heart, but she could only force her wife next to her to pretend to be calm.
Qingfeng glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, didn't say anything, just wrote down the faces of these people without a trace, especially the one in the lead.
The people searched quickly, and in a short time they had already searched for all their things.
Because she went to the hermit temple, she didn't bring much gold and silver except for the sesame oil money, soβ
"Head, that's all there is to it."
The man was holding only clothes and jewelry, which were not worth much at all.
The leader gave him a casual look, ordered him to put it away, and then walked towards the three masters and servants.
Yu Wu'er's face under the hat changed suddenly.
Could it be that these people have repented-
"Little lady, if you only have such a little thing, it won't be enough for our brothers to bother to make this trip."
"Then what do you want, that's all I have, you said you only robbed money-"
She said calmly.
"Don't worry, I mean what I say. However, I remember that there is a clause in the Patriotic Law that the value of slaves and goods is equal, so this money is too small, so you can only use your handmaid to offset it, and I don't want more, you can just pick one of the two and give it to me! β
The man glanced at each of the three of them, and finally stopped at Qingfeng's face.
"That's it."
He pointed to the breeze.
"Nope." Yu Wu'er opened her mouth to deny. Qingfeng is the person sent by her husband-in-law to her side.
The leader sneered when he heard the refusal. "Little lady, don't you toast or eat and drink, otherwise none of you will be able to leave!"
Yu Wu'er bit her lip, she really didn't know what to do.
The body of the groom is still on the ground, these people are definitely not to be messed with, and she forgot her husband's instructions, if she had brought a guard with her guard this time, maybe such a thing would not have happened.
There was not a shred of resistance to the strength.
Seeing that she didn't speak, the man was naturally proud, thinking that Yu Wu'er was frightened by him, and immediately reached out to grab the breeze next to her.
Yu Wu'er was about to push him away, but she heard a person's voice from nowhere. "Stop!"
Suddenly, everyone looked in the direction from which the voice came.
One was dressed in white, all of them were in late autumn, and he was still holding a paper folding fan in his hand, pretending to be fanning it all the time.
"Yo, here comes a person who doesn't have long eyes, and I don't want to get away from me!"
was delayed by such a person, and the leader was almost annoyed, pretending to be something.
"That's not right, how can you big men bully a few weak women, it's really not a gentleman's doing!"
The man in white kept walking forward, getting closer and closer to them.
"If you want to be a hero and save beauty, just you? Brothers, on! β
The leader waved his hand, and the rest rushed forward with knives.
Yu Wu'er and the others took a few steps back without a trace.
I thought that the boy in white would definitely not fight if he looked like a weak scholar, but I didn't expect that people can't be good-looking, and he actually fought with these people with only a folding fan.
When Yu Wu'er saw it, her eyes lit up.
Liu Mei was also very excited, only Qingfeng lowered his head, glanced at the two sides of the scuffle, and saw that he was tired and very disdainful.
Tsk, that's clumsy.
Soon, those bandits were knocked to the ground by the man in white, and the leader rushed up in a hurry, and lay on the ground after a few moves.
Seeing this, Yu Wu'er was about to go over to thank her, and the white-clothed boy "brushed" and opened the folding fan that he had just used as a weapon, and said with a smile that he thought was very chic: "It's just a gesture, the girl doesn't have to be polite." People who practice martial arts should see unevenness on the road and draw their swords to help, but I just abide by the morality taught to me by my master. β
Although there was an indescribable weirdness when he heard this, it was a fact that he saved them, and Yu Wu'er was still very grateful.
"I don't know where my son's family lives, and I will send someone to thank me when I return home."
When the man in white heard this, he pretended to sigh deeply and shook his head silently.
Yu Wu'er thought that she had asked something taboo, but she was a little sorry, so she thought about it and changed the question.
"Childe, can you tell me your name?"
She went back and asked the third brother to check it out.
"The name is just a code name, the girl only needs to know my surname Mu, and I didn't save the girl to try to repay, girl, your horseman is dead, I don't know, how to go back?"
Speaking of this, Yu Wu'er also realized that their master and servant can't drive, but how can it be good.
As if seeing her embarrassment, the man in white said happily: "The girl is a person from the capital, and it just so happens that I am going to the capital to find relatives, and I don't know how to go, but I can drive, if the girl can take me a little way, it will really help me a lot." β
Knowing that he wanted to help, Yu Wu'er didn't know how to thank him, so of course she wouldn't refuse.
"There's Lao Gongzi."
Yu Wu'er bowed to him sincerely.
After getting into the carriage, the man in white sat in the driver's seat. The carriage moved smoothly in the direction of the capital.
After they left, the bandits who were lying on the ground quickly got up as if they were all right, and there was still the appearance of being seriously injured just now.
Including the coachman covered in blood.
