Chapter Twenty-Eight: Sikong Yun'er (Today's Two Watches)
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?
After a long time, I saw my brother from a distance holding a goose-yellow "colored" tulle woman in his arms, leaning on his brother's arms and "dazed" unconscious, the girl was about fourteen or fifteen years old, and her appearance was beautiful. The girl's sleeves had been torn off, and her white arms could be faintly seen.
Ji Yunfan, who followed closely, was carrying a slightly chubby old woman in her forties, dressed in dark brown clothes, the old woman seemed to be seriously injured and unconscious, and there were blood stains on the corners of her mouth.
Su Juan didn't understand what was going on, and hurriedly walked forward to ask, "Brother, what happened?"
"Ah Juan, don't be impatient! The pair of master and servant met the bandits. When we arrived, the two bandits were about to move. Saying this, Su Jin didn't feel that her face was slightly red, after all, men and women don't kiss.
"Brother, get the people to the carriage quickly!"
Su Jin and Ji Yunfan sent the master and servant to the carriage, and the guards who accompanied the army often had healing gold sores "medicine" on their bodies, Ji Yunfan took out a blue "colored" porcelain bottle from his waist and handed it to Su Juan.
"Your Royal Highness the Princess, here is the 'medicine' for gold sores, the old woman is afraid that she has lost too much blood, so she will first apply this 'medicine' powder to the affected area. ”
Ji Yunfan had already given the old woman a "hole" path, and the old woman was injured on her back, and if she wanted further treatment, she would have to wait until there was a docking place to do treatment.
After all, the carriage was cramped, and the four people were slightly crowded, leaving Xiao Zhao to give the old woman "medicine" in the carriage. Su Juan didn't know what the identities of the two people lying in the carriage were, and they couldn't see death or save them in danger.
After a false alarm, the group continued on their way, and finally arrived at a post station just before sunset, where usually such a large procession came out except to set up camp or to go to the post station.
Su Juan has the prince's token, and he is escorted by personal guards, so it is most convenient and safe to go to the post station. The post station is the only way to the barbarians, and you can also find out the speed of the army of King Lang.
On a bright moonlit night, the moonlight is bright and gentle, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the smoke breeze caresses, Su Juan looked at the blue sky outside the window through the window, full of hidden worries, and was worried about the safety of the cold.
According to his brother Su Jin's inquiry, King Lang's army has been passing through here for more than half a month, which proves that Qi Han has accelerated the speed of the march, and the faster Qi Han marches, the closer he is to danger.
Suddenly, a dazzling silver light crossed the night sky dragging long wings of light across the night sky, and Su Juan hurriedly put his hands together and prayed to the sky for peace and joy!
"Miss, you are praying for the prince again, Miss is so kind-hearted, God will definitely bless the prince. Xiao Zhao's sweet voice came from behind him.
Su Juan turned around from the window and looked back, although the corners of his mouth were smiling, the slightest trace of worry in his eyes could not be concealed.
Seeing Xiao Zhao coming back from the next room, he wanted to know about the situation of the two people he rescued today.
"Zhao'er, how are they?
"Miss, the slave maid just wants to tell you that the woman has woken up, and the old woman is still unconscious. ”
Now that people have woken up, of course Su Juan has to ask the reason, how can they appear on the official road, according to common sense, there are often people from the official government, and few bandits dare to commit murder.
"Zhao'er, come with me!" and told Xiao Zhao not to reveal her identity until the identity of the woman was discovered.
Stepping on the moonlight, Su Juan took Xiao Zhao to the next room, where the dim candle flame flickered, revealing a warm "color".
The woman in the yellow shirt, half-sitting on the bed, with her hands around her knees, buried her head half-in her knees, heard the sound of footsteps coming from the door, raised her crystal eyes, and saw the strange man who appeared in front of her, hurriedly covered her "naked" and "exposed" arms, with a frightened look, and couldn't help leaning towards the foot of the bed.
"You don't want to come here?"
Su Juan saw that there were still tears in the corners of her eyes, and her clear beautiful eyes were full of horror, obviously she had not recovered from the panic in the daytime.
Before Su Juan could speak, Xiao Zhao had already spoken first, "Don't be afraid, didn't you see me just now? This is our son-in-law." ”
A gentle smile hung on the corner of Su Wan's mouth, "Miss, don't be afraid, we have no malicious intentions." I don't know why the young lady appeared on the official road. ”
The woman obviously didn't believe Su Juan's words, her suspicious ice eyes were full of inquiry, she looked at Su Juan, and asked with a hesitant expression: "It seems that the person who saved me is not you, where is Wu Niang?"
It turned out that the woman still remembered that her brother had saved her, and she spoke in a clear manner, and it seemed that there should be nothing serious except for some fright.
"The person who rescued you is my brother, the old woman is in the next room, still in a coma, if you don't believe me, you can go with us to have a look. ”
The woman saw that Su Juan was sure of what she said, and it didn't look like a deceitful "touch", and she finally relaxed her vigilance in her black pupils.
"I want to see Wu Niang!"
The woman cautiously followed behind Su Juan to the next room. Seeing the old woman lying on the couch with a face as pale as wax and unconscious, she cried sadly.
"Wu Niang, it's all to save me that you are injured, it's all Yun'er's bad! Wu Niang!" cried so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, and people felt pity when they saw it.
Su Juan and Xiao Zhao were on the side, Su Juan looked at the girl in front of her crying sadly, her heart was sour, and comforted: "Miss Yun'er, this old woman is fine, she is in a coma because of excessive blood loss." ”
When Yun'er heard Su Xuan's words, Fang stopped the tears in her eyes, got up and saluted: "Sikong Yun'er Xie Gongzi saved his life!"
Su Juan was suddenly a little stunned, she was completely gracious, "Miss Yun'er, please get up, it's my brother who saved you, not me." ”
Sikong Yun'er just got up, retracted his eyes and said: "Gongzi is willing to treat Wu Niang's injuries, he is Yun'er's benefactor, Yun'er has just offended, and I hope Engong will not mind." ”
At this time, the woman's mouth was called out one by one, and seeing her respectful look, she didn't even recognize herself as a woman dressed as a man, and it seemed that her disguise was still very successful.
But think about it, this woman's hand has been covering her "naked" and "exposed" arm, she must be a woman from a good family, where can she dare to stare at the man's face and identify it carefully, such a woman will be said to be a ** person.
"Dare to ask Miss Yun'er, why did she appear on the official road?" Su Juan asked the question when she first saw her.
Sikong Yun'er breathed a long sigh of relief before she opened her mouth to tell the truth of the matter.
Originally, Sikong Yuner's father was a businessman, but he died unexpectedly a few years ago, leaving his mother and her, and he couldn't take care of the business, so the family was in the middle. Later, her mother also died, and before she died, she asked her to go to the border to find her uncle. They dismissed the domestic servants, leaving two old servants who had been with their father for more than ten years, but they didn't expect that the two of them would have a bad heart on the way, if they hadn't been saved by Su Jin and Ji Yunfan, they would have died in Huangquan.
