Chapter Twenty-Seven: Sudden Changes
The white clouds passed by, the clouds above the sky occupied their own postures, and the sun scorched the earth like fire.
Outside the carriage, the sound of horses' hooves, the rolling of wheels, and the mighty "swing" and "swing" procession marched all the way, splashing dust all over the ground.
In the carriage, Su Juan was studying with a book in his hand, although it was afternoon, the sun was still blazing outside, and even the wind was warm.
Even if the window was open, the place inside the carriage was cramped and stuffy, and I didn't feel that my back and palms were already sweaty, and if I continued like this, I was afraid that my clothes would be wet.
Xiao Zhao was playing a fan for Su Juan on the side, his pretty face was slightly red, and while wiping the sweat on his forehead, he said to Su Juan: "Miss, it's better for the slave to get some water to wipe it for you, otherwise, Miss will also take off the man's clothes on her body, and it will be cooler." ”
Su Juan is now dressed as a man, and her clothes are indeed heavier than women's, although she is sad in such a hot season, she can't be untidy in the blue sky and daylight.
Thinking of this, he put down the book in his hand and called to Uncle An outside the carriage: "Uncle An, stop the carriage for the time being." ”
Rong An, who was outside the carriage, heard Su Juan's soft call, and hurriedly tightened the reins of the horse, and the carriage stopped.
Su Jin, who was walking in front of the team, heard the voice of her sister Su Juan behind her, and when she saw her sister's carriage stop, she also stretched out her hand to stop the team's marching footsteps, and the whole team stopped.
Su Juan didn't say anything, and directly opened the curtain of the carriage, Xiao Zhao helped Su Juan walk down from the carriage, the dazzling sunlight made people unable to open their eyes, and Su Juan Yu's hand blocked the light.
The smoke wind swept by his ears, but it was more comfortable, even if the sun outside hurt his skin, it was better than the suffocation in the carriage.
Su Jin turned the horse's head and drove directly in the direction of Su Juan, the horse stood in front, Su Jin sat on the horse, and the handsome figure blocked the burning light.
"Juan, what's the matter?"
At this time, Su Juan felt better, "Brother, the carriage is too stuffy and unbearable, so it's better for Ah Juan to ride a horse like his brother." ”
The team has been on the road for a few days, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the outside is indeed more refreshing than the inside of the carriage. ”
Su Juan watched his elder brother Su Jin ride a horse and walk forward, discussing something with the young man led by him? That man is the leader of the prince's personal guard, and his name is Ji Yunfan.
He is about in his early twenties, dressed in a silver satin gown, with bronze skin, narrow eyes, and although he is not as handsome as his brother, his facial features are quite masculine and handsome.
Su Jin ordered the whole team to stop and rest and fight, the weather was too hot, even if people could stand it, but the horses were covered with "fur" skins and heavy loads were unbearable, Su Jin ordered people to feed the horses with water and grain and grass.
After everyone rested for a while, Su Jin led a horse named Xuemang, who was as white as snow, with a beautiful figure, and a white mane and hair shining in the sun.
Su Juan stretched out his hand and "touched" Xuemang's shiny mane "hair", such as snow edge, it was really a very appropriate name, thinking in his heart that his brother's chasing the wind was too reckless, Xuemang looked more docile, it seems that his brother was afraid that he would not be able to do martial arts and get hurt.
In fact, my brother doesn't have to worry about himself, in order to learn to ride a horse well when he was a child, he impressed Brother Qihan, and he didn't know how many times he secretly fell off the horse, and now even if he is an elder brother, he may not be able to win himself.
However, Su Juan did not refute the kindness of his brother Su Jin, tightened the reins with his hands, straddled the horse lightly, dressed in a white "colored" brocade robe, with a beautiful appearance, a handsome young man, and it was difficult for a clear-eyed person to distinguish between male and female for a while.
The brother and sister chatted while hurrying, Su Juan couldn't remember when he talked so freely with his brother, plus in his previous life, it was more than ten years ago, since he married the prince Qiyu in his previous life, he rarely had a happy time, and because of his resentment towards his father and his family.
Su Jin saw that his sister was deep in thought, afraid that she was worried about the safety of King Lang, so she comforted her: "Ah Juan, although we set off half a month later than King Lang, fortunately, the speed at which we traveled was faster than that of King Lang, and the time was still in time. ”
Su Juan turned his eyes to look at his brother, the handsome and elegant figure, those heart-warming words full of comfort, and a blood and family affection spread in his heart.
"Brother, thank you. ”
Su Jin hooked her lips slightly, and said with a gentle smile: "Silly Ah Juan, isn't it natural for my brother to protect my sister? Ah Juan doesn't have to worry, my brother believes that King Lang will know Ah Juan's good one day." ”
A bitter smile rose at the corner of Su Wan's mouth, hoping that this trip could save him from danger and resolve the inextricable grievances between the two in their past and present lives.
With the Prince's token, there are a lot fewer obstacles for them to travel all the way.
The carriage traveled all the way along the pipeline, and suddenly, Ji Yunfan, who was walking in front, tightened the reins of the horse, sat on the horse with an awe-inspiring expression, and his sharp eyes kept looking into the distance, and he felt something strange in front of him.
All the people were on alert, and all the voices were silent for a while.
Suddenly, a wail floated through the sky in the distance, breaking the silence at this time.
Su Juan listened to the miserable voice, like a woman's voice, it should not be far away, "Brother, someone must have had an accident, go and save someone!"
At this time, Ji Yunfan, who was sitting on the horse, concluded that there was no ambush in the dark, so he jumped up and rushed towards the source of the sound, and his brother Su Jin also followed.
Su Juan got down from Xue Mang's body, Uncle An and the guards protected Su Juan in the middle, and his brother and Ji Yunfan were sure that there were many guards to protect Su Juan before they dared to leave.
Su Juan stopped in place and looked straight in the direction of his brother's run, the wail he had just heard was extremely miserable, although it was a scorching sun, it was inevitable that there would be a slight chill in people's hearts. What's going on ahead?
