Chapter 233: It's All a Coincidence!
The three of them returned to the inn.
Angelica first handed over the medicinal materials he bought to Luo Pingsha, and then ran to find Yu Yuanxuan.
She repeated the content of her conversation with Lu Yao, and asked at the end.
"Sister, is Gongzi Lu suspicious of us?"
Yu Yuan bowed his head: "Hmm." ā
Their disguise is not rigorous, as long as Lu Yao has a heart, he will definitely be suspicious.
Angelica hurriedly asked, "Then what should we do next?" ā
Yu Xuan said soothingly.
"Don't be nervous.
Since he didn't come to ask us directly, it means that he has no idea of tearing the window paper with us for the time being.
Even so, we pretend that nothing has happened and continue to mingle.
When we arrived in Xingning, we parted ways with him. ā
Angelica nodded: "Hmm." ā
The night passed quickly.
The next morning, after breakfast, they were about to continue their journey, but as soon as they opened the door, they saw many people standing outside the inn, the leader of which was the local county magistrate.
As soon as he saw Lu Yao, he immediately stepped forward to salute.
"Lu Gongzi."
Lu Yao frowned, his face dissatisfied.
"Didn't I tell you, don't bother me? Why do you have to bring so many people to me? ā
The county commander hurriedly apologized: "Please Lu Gongzi Haihan, it's not that the lower official deliberately wants to disturb you, it's the county guard who sent someone to send a secret order, asking the lower official to stay here for two days, and after two days, the people from the county guard will come here to pick you up." ā
If it was before, Lu Yao would have agreed to stay and wait for someone to pick him up.
But now he was in a hurry to go home and ask his father for clarification, and he didn't want to delay time here.
So he refused without hesitation.
"You don't have to be so excited, I know the way back, I can go back myself, you get out of the way."
The prefectural order was very embarrassed: "But the county guard can't explain it." ā
Lu Yao said in a deep voice: "I will make it clear to him that even if he wants to be held accountable afterwards, it will be borne by me alone, and it has nothing to do with you!" ā
Speaking of which, the county magistrate knew that the other party was determined to leave, but he really couldn't keep it, so he could only step aside and give way to the road.
Lu Yao, Yu Yuanyuan and others sat in the carriage.
Two wagons and a donkey headed forward, quickly disappearing from everyone's sight.
The county commander retracted his gaze and instructed the master beside him.
"You immediately write a letter and send someone to Xingning to tell the county keeper about the matter of the eldest prince."
"Whoa."
The carriage moved at a constant speed along the official road.
Then they encountered three more robberies.
Without exception, all of them were yellow-skinned, they were originally good citizens, and after their land and property were taken away, they could no longer live, and they had no choice but to fall into the grass in desperation.
The first two batches of rogues were sent away by Yu Yuanyuan with money.
Only the last batch of rogues can't.
They had obviously killed someone, and they all had ferocity in their eyes.
They were not satisfied with just taking a hundred taels of silver, but they had to kill people and take all the money and food.
Even so, Yu Yuanyuan and Lu Yao and his party had nothing to say, and they all joined the battle.
Although the gang was fierce, they had never had formal training, and they fought in a disorderly manner, relying on their brute strength.
After a fierce battle.
In the end, the rogues were defeated, and they died and fled.
Yu Yuanxuan and Luo Pingsha were fine, only Angelica was slightly injured in order to protect Lu Yao.
Her arm was cut with a long, thin cut.
Slowly oozing blood, staining the sleeves red.
Lu Yao was anxious.
Without thinking about it, he picked up the angelica horizontally and put it in the carriage.
Luo Pingsha washed his hands, opened the medicine box, and began to bandage the wound of Angelica.
There was limited space inside the carriage, and everyone else had to wait outside the carriage.
Lu Yao kept pacing back and forth, his eyes kept staring at the carriage, and he was so annoyed in his heart that he couldn't do it.
He hated himself for being too careless just now, just caring about dealing with the rogues in front of him, but he didn't expect that someone would sneak attack behind him, so he was so tired that he rushed over to save him.
It's all he who hurt Angelica!
Thinking of this, Lu Yao raised his hand and slapped himself hard.
Yuan Shu was taken aback and hurriedly grabbed him.
"Childe, what are you doing here?"
Lu Yao said with red eyes: "It's all my fault, if it wasn't for saving me, Angelica wouldn't have been injured." ā
Yuan Shu comforted: "Don't think so, those rogues are too shameless, and you don't want to be like this, you must not take all the blame on yourself." ā
Lu Yao clenched his fists and secretly made up his mind.
Angelica can fight for him, and he will not be able to live up to her affection.
When he returned to Xingning, he told his family about quitting his family.
Luo Pingsha jumped out of the carriage and said to Yu Yuan.
"The wound is not deep, it has been bandaged, pay attention not to let her move her arm in the next few days, change the dressing on time every day, and don't let the wound touch the water."
Yu Yuan nodded to indicate that he remembered.
At this time, Angelica's head poked out of the car window and said to Yu Yu.
"Sister, I'm fine, you don't have to worry."
Yu Yuan looked at her energetic appearance, knowing that she was really fine, and her hanging heart could finally be put down.
Lu Yao walked quickly to the carriage and said to Angelica.
"You have a good rest, if you need any help, just tell me, this time you were injured because of me, I will definitely repay you."
Angelica was a little ashamed in his heart.
At that time, she saw that Lu Gongzi was attacked by someone, she immediately rushed over, wanting to repel the person, but she didn't expect to slip and fall under her feet, and her body just hit the blade of the rogue.
In short, she didn't have the idea of using her body to block the knife for Lu Gongzi.
It's all a coincidence!
She tried to explain: "Actually, I didn't expect to be injured, I was also accidentally hit by the man's knife wound, it has nothing to do with you, you don't have to blame yourself for it." ā
What she said was true, but Lu Yao felt that she said it on purpose, in order to reduce his psychological burden.
Lu Yao's heart became more and more moved, and his eyes were full of tenderness.
"You don't need to say it, I know everything, I know your mind."
Angelica is a question mark on the door of the brain.
What mind? What does he know again?
Until the carriage restarts, Angelica still hasn't understood what Lu Yao means.
She couldn't help but ask Yu Yuanyuan for advice.
"Sister, did Mr. Lu misunderstand something?"
Yu Yuan was a bystander, and smiled with an unclear meaning: "He probably thought that you loved him, so he would go out of his way to block the knife for him, and he must be too moved at this time." ā
Angelica's face turned red all of a sudden, and he was so ashamed that he couldn't even speak.
"IāI didn't have a crush on him! Sister, don't talk nonsense! ā
The smile on Yu Yuan's face became more and more intense.
"And what are you blushing about?"
Angelica covered his face with his uninjured hand and forcibly defended himself: "I feel hot!" ā
