As soon as he got into the carriage, Xiao Xiwei saw a familiar figure - Xiao Xile.

I saw that she was wearing a crimson embroidered skirt, her eyebrows were like far away, her skin was like the first snow, the black green silk was curled with a crescent moon, and a pink jade butterfly hairpin was inserted obliquely, and the long tassels trembled slightly with her movements, making her more and more beautiful.

"Sister, come and sit." Seeing Xiao Xiwei, Xiao Xile smiled and beckoned to her.

Xiao Xi smiled and helped Biyun's hand into the carriage.

"Sister, look ......" Xiao Xile smiled and pointed to a few delicate food boxes next to her, "Mother said that it was a long way to Chao'an Temple, and she was afraid that we would be hungry, so she specially made a lot of snacks that my sister loves to eat." ”

Xiao Xile's biological mother Li is Xiao Yan's cousin and Lao Taijun's cousin niece. And Xiao Xiwei's biological mother Chen gave birth to Xiao Xiwei, and she was weak and bedridden after giving birth, and Li was in this waiting house, and soon gave birth to the third young lady Xiao Xile and the fifth teenager Xiao Ximing. She always thought that Li was gentle and kind, otherwise her mother would not have entrusted her to take care of the pair of children she left behind, but Li was a Zhongshan wolf who knew people and faces......

"Mother is really bothered." Xiao Xi smiled faintly, "My sister is so beautiful today!" But I still feel like there's something missing? Xiao Xi smiled, and a pair of sweet pear vortices bloomed at the corners of his lips. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, "I know what's missing, sister, you still have a hairpin that can match you." As she spoke, she took out a golden peony from her sleeve and inserted it into Xiao Xile's sideburns, "I got up late today, and I didn't have time to choose clothes so I hurried over. ”

Xiao Xile knew that this golden peony was a birthday gift specially made by Xiao Xiwei's uncle to let the best craftsmen in Suzhou City create a birthday gift for her, and the gems on it were carefully selected, and he was overjoyed for a while, and he was busy holding Xiao Xile's arm affectionately and said with a smile, "Thank you, sister." ”

"Thank you for what else we sisters have to say!" Xiao Xi smiled and patted Xiao Xile's hand.

"That's what my sister said!" Xiao Xile responded with a smile.

Xiao Xi lowered his eyes and smiled, and an imperceptible sneer flashed in his eyes.

There is still a good way to go from Chao'an Temple.

Xiao Xiwei got into the carriage and yawned slightly, and then looked at Xiao Xile apologetically and said, "Sister, I didn't sleep well last night, I want to rest first." Stay for a while, if you are about to arrive at Chao'an Temple, please call me. ”

Xiao Xile just accepted Xiao Xiwei's expensive gift, so he naturally responded with a mouthful.

Xiao Xi smiled, leaned on the carriage and closed his eyes.

If she remembers correctly, then someone will come to hijack the carriage on the way to Chao'an Temple, and at that time, the four princes will descend from the sky to save the beauty, and she will also promise to be like the crazy lady in the play, but it's a pity......

The carriage had gone about an hour before it entered a forest.

Xiao Xile was opening the curtain to look at the scenery outside, when suddenly, there was a burst of shouts in the forest, and then more than a dozen black-clothed masked men jumped out of the forest.

"Quick, protect the old lady and the young lady." The guards were frightened by the sudden situation, and drew their knives to surround the carriage.

"Sister, sister......" Xiao Xile was startled, put down the curtain in a panic, and leaned towards Xiao Xiwei in horror.

Xiao Xi slowly opened his eyes, listening to the hissing sound outside, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

It's finally here.

The curtain was suddenly cut open by the sharp blade, and the cold blade refracted the cold light in the sunlight

"Ahh Xiao Xile screamed, and then quickly pushed the girl behind him out to block the front.

"Miss." Biyun and Hongyu glanced at each other, and then blocked Xiao Xiwei behind them at the same time.

The man in black quickly swept into the carriage, and then immediately locked on Xiao Xile and dragged her out of the carriage.

"Help! Help me! Xiao Xile's mournful scream suddenly sounded, she struggled desperately, her clothes and hair were all messed up, and her snow-white face was full of fear.

"Look at this girl's good looks!" The man at the head threatened to touch Xiao Xile's snow-white face.

"Stop! Who are you who dare to rob the carriage of the Loyal Waiting House? At this time, the old lady also stepped out of the carriage and stared at the man in black with an extremely ugly face.

"Grandmother, grandmother, save me!" As soon as Xiao Xile saw the old lady, he seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, and shouted desperately at her.

Unexpectedly, the masked man didn't seem to hear the old lady's words, and raised his hand and touched Xiao Xile's face again, "It is worthy of being a young lady who is loyal and brave to the mansion, with fine skin and tender meat, it is better to go back to the mountain with the master to be the lady of the village!" ”

The old lady's face sank, she held Liu's mother's hand tightly, and her body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

The dignified Miss Zhongyong Houfu was teased and flirted by the gangsters like this, if this matter spread, the Zhongyong Houfu would become the laughing stock of others, and the entire Zhongyong Houfu would not be able to raise its head.

Fortunately, the old lady was not angry for long. A feathered arrow burst through the air and struck the masked man in the chest. Immediately afterwards, twenty or thirty iron horsemen appeared at the intersection, led by a man dressed in white, and rushed towards him with a jade face.

Xiao Xiwei's eyes unconsciously overflowed with a hint of coldness, and the hand hidden in the sleeve clenched unconsciously, and the sharp nails pierced her palms with pain. However, the pain was nowhere near as dull as the pain in her chest.

Chu Yanzhi.

He's still so timely!

Xiao Xiwei's eyes unconsciously looked at Xiao Xile, and saw that her eyes were full of gratitude and longing, and that look was exactly the same as her in her previous life......

Soon, the dozen or so black-clothed people were all beheaded by the people brought by Chu Yanzhi.

In the woods, there was a strong smell of blood floating in the air.

When the last person was beheaded under the sword, one of them walked up to Chu Yanzhi and knelt down and said, "Fourth Highness, the thieves have all been killed." ”

Chu Yanzhi nodded, and then walked towards the Xia clan.

"Old lady, are you okay?"

The old lady blessed the body and saluted Chu Yanzhi, "The old body has seen the four highnesses, thank you for the life-saving grace of the four highnesses." ”

"The old lady is too polite." Chu Yanzhi hurriedly stretched out his hand to help him up, "I also happened to be passing by, and I couldn't afford the old lady's thanks." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare." The old lady said busily.

"This young lady, are you alright?" As if remembering something, Chu Yanzhi suddenly turned his face and looked at Xiao Xile with concern.

Xiao Xile was originally grateful to Chu Yan who saved her from the clutches of the devil, but now that he was so concerned about it, his heart suddenly hit like a deer, and his originally frightened pale face floated a few traces of redness suspiciously, "Xile has thanked His Highness for saving his life." ”

The corners of Chu Yanzhi's mouth hooked, and a perfect arc was bent, "Second Miss is polite." ”

"Third Miss, are you okay?"

Before Xiao Xile could answer, Hongxiu, the personal maid beside her, ran over and said timidly.

Xiao Xile originally wanted to get angry, but in front of Chu Yanzhi, he had to endure that breath, and forced out a smile, "I'm fine, don't worry." After speaking, he secretly raised his eyes and glanced at Chu Yanzhi.

The curvature of the corners of Chu Yanzhi's mouth was still the same, but his eyes flashed.

Isn't it Miss Two? How did you become Miss Three?

"Grandmother, are you alright?" Xiao Xiwei didn't seem to see all this, and walked up to the old lady and asked with concern.

The old lady looked at the corpses all over the ground, hurriedly pinched the red coral beads in his hand, and said several words in a row, "Amitabha, it's really a bodhisattva......

"Old lady, I originally wanted to go to Chao'an Temple for my mother to ask for a peace charm, why don't you go with me." Chu Yanzhi turned his face to the old lady again.

After such a big incident, the old lady originally wanted to turn back to the Hou Mansion, but when she heard Chu Yanzhi's words, she hesitated a little.

Finally chose a day to worship the Buddha in Chao'an Temple, it is always unlucky to turn back, and if there is such a big thing, it is better to go to worship the Buddha and ask for peace.

Thinking of this, the old lady nodded, "Then it will trouble the four princes." ”

Under the escort of Chu Yanzhi, the carriage arrived at Chao'an Temple safely.

The abbot of the temple and his sister-in-law had already received the news and stood at the gate of the temple to greet them.

Everyone entered the mountain gate along the gentle bluestone steps, and above the mountain gate was the three gilded characters of "Chao'an Temple" inscribed by the Empress Dowager herself. After entering the mountain gate, you will see the main hall. Speaking of which, it is not the first time that Xiao Xiwei has come to Chao'an Temple, in the past, he only felt that the hall was solemn, but this time he looked at the empty hall, and he only felt an indescribable depression and emptiness. The kind-faced Buddha looked down on the common people from above, looking at the various desires and greed of the people like ants below, in fact, they were secretly sneering in their hearts......

"What is the second lady laughing at?" Suddenly, a familiar voice interjected.

Xiao Xi turned his face slightly and saw Chu Yanzhi's extremely handsome face.

The hand hidden in the sleeve tightened again unconsciously, and the tearing pain came from the heart again.

"Your Highness may have seen it wrong, and the courtiers didn't laugh." The long eyelashes slowly drooped, hiding the sharp cold light and bitter hatred in his eyes.

"Really?" A smile appeared on the corner of Chu Yanzhi's lips, and his eyes flashed unconsciously.

"Your Highness, sister, what are you talking about?" A crisp voice suddenly interjected, Xiao Xile intervened with a smile, and kindly took Xiao Xiwei's arm, but his bright eyes kept looking at Chu Yanzhi.

Everything, as in the previous life.

As long as she is slightly close to Chu Yanzhi, there will always be a delicate voice interjecting in.

It turned out that Xiao Xile had fallen in love with Chu Yanzhi from the beginning, but it was a pity that she was clumsy and blind in her previous life, and she never saw her thoughts.

It's just that since she likes Chu Yanzhi so much, why did she marry Chu Xizhi in the first place?
