Chapter 7: The Past

When the two of them were about to reach the inn, they saw a man running out in a hurry. This person is a small servant in the general's mansion, but he didn't take him out this time, and somehow he was here.

"Madame! Madam! The little guy hurriedly ran over, stood in front of him, and said respectfully but with a slight breath: "Madam, the general has returned home!"

Zhao Shuying's eyes lit up when she heard the news. The voice was a little excited: "So fast! I thought it would be a few more days, quick, go and prepare the carriage, and go back tonight! ”

"Yes!" The little guy hurriedly responded, and hurriedly ran to prepare the car.

Zhao Shuying pulled Qing Huan and quickened her pace: "I can see your father and brother tonight!" Let's go pack our things and get ready to go back! ”

"Good!" Qing Huan also jumped up happily. I didn't expect to be so happy tonight, not only did I have a good time, but I was able to meet my dad and brother!

The two of them hurriedly packed up their things in the room, went to the front hall to settle the bill, and the carriage was already waiting at the door. The two men got into the carriage, and the carriage began to move slowly.

It was late at night, and the journey was a little bumpy, Lu Qinghuan was lying in Zhao Shuying's arms, slightly sleepy.

Zhao Shuying patted her on the back and whispered: "If you are sleepy, you will sleep first, and you will be good when you get home!"

Lu Qinghuan immediately closed his eyes and fell asleep in a daze, but he didn't sleep deeply, and he could still feel the bumps of the carriage and the sound of the wheels rolling on the ground.

Suddenly, the car stopped. Lu Qinghuan opened his eyes and thought, why did he get home so quickly?

It soon became clear that something was wrong, and the sound of a fight sounded outside the carriage.

Zhao Shuying also quickly lifted the curtain and found that several subordinates in the family were fighting with several masked people. Although it is said that the subordinates of the General's Mansion have undergone special training and have some skills. But there are not many people with me today, and it seems that the people on the other side are also trained in an orderly manner. Lu Qinghuan also saw the situation outside, and his originally sleepy brain was suddenly completely awake. In the moonlight shrouded the fighting crowd, she saw something fleeting, with three faint ripples of water on it.

Zhao Shuying immediately ran to the front of the car, untied the rope of the horse with the hairpin on his head, and then quickly helped Qing Huan onto the horse, sat in the back, and ran in the opposite direction on the horse.

The masked man who was fighting obviously didn't expect that the little guy in the General's Mansion was actually not like the little guy in the ordinary mansion, and it was actually a little difficult. But his purpose this time was not to waste time with these people. Seeing Zhao Shuying running away with Lu Qinghuan, a masked man led by him immediately took out a dart from his body and threw it at the two people who were riding away by the moonlight. Then the order was given "Withdraw!" A group of men in black sped away.

Zhao Shuying drove the horse and held Qing Huan in his arms. She didn't know the way, but she was afraid that someone would catch up after her. The sudden sharp pain behind her back and the gradual fading consciousness made her know that she had to get off the horse quickly.

In order to escape quickly just now, she pierced the horse's buttocks with the hairpin in her hand, if she didn't get off the horse in time, Qinghuan couldn't drive the horse, and her consciousness was gradually lost, and when she was completely unconscious, Qinghuan would be thrown off the horse.

So, she took advantage of the fact that she was still conscious. Holding Lu Qinghuan's waist with one hand, and protecting her head with the other.

She whispered, "Huan'er, don't be afraid." Then he jumped off his horse.

The two of them rolled around on the land, and Zhao Shuying's arms were still tightly protecting his daughter.

Lu Qinghuan was very flustered in her heart from the moment she got on the horse, but she didn't make any sound. She knew she was in tears, but she didn't make a sound. Until his mother said that he should not be afraid, he was carried by his mother and rolled to the ground. For a moment, she felt that everything around her was quiet, and her mother was still holding her tightly.

She called softly, "Mother." ”

There was no response. She was suddenly terrified to the extreme, and forcefully broke away from Zhao Shuying's hand holding her. Sitting up and looking back at her, in the cold moonlight, she saw her mother's eyes closed and blood spilling from the corners of her mouth.

She reacted suddenly, and suddenly searched for something, and found a dart on her mother's back, and the blood from the dart's wound had turned dark blue. It's a poisoned dart.

She shook her mother vigorously and cried out loudly, as if she could open her eyes to her.

The dead and wounded of the few little soldiers brought out by the general's mansion were lying on the road not far from her, and the mother in her arms couldn't be called. Lu Qinghuan cried out loud, which was very clear in this wilderness.

Suddenly, a group of masked people appeared out of nowhere, and they came straight to Lu Qinghuan, who was sitting on the ground. The injured guy not far away was no longer able to rush over. I could only shout, "Miss, be careful!" ”

Lu Qinghuan reacted at this time, but he didn't have time to dodge. Frightened, he closed his eyes tightly and waited for the oncoming sword to slash.

"Boom-"

There seemed to be a burst of dust around him, Lu Qinghuan opened his eyes in surprise, and found that a thick ravine appeared on the ground, and the group of masked people who came from the siege were all shaken back, and even one or two of the leaders seemed to have been severely injured, lying on the ground and not knowing whether they were alive or dead.

Only then did Lu Qinghuan notice that there was a man in white on the other side of him. Handsome in appearance and dusty in temperament, as if he is a fairy in the world.

The masked men in the back saw that the situation was not good and quickly fled, and the man in white did not chase after them, but indulged them to leave.

The man's figure paused, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, as if he had also suffered a lot of trauma. He hid the sword in his hand, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, walked over and squatted down, and asked softly, "Did you hurt anything?" ”

Lu Qinghuan shook his head indifferently, but suddenly became vigilant and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The man in white did not reply, and caught a glimpse of a long, large gash on her arm, gurgling with blood.

Lu Qinghuan followed his gaze and found that he was injured, he should have been injured when he fell from his horse just now. She was born with no pain, and she didn't know she was bleeding so much.

The man in white hurriedly clicked on the acupoint on Lu Qinghuan's arm to stop the bleeding.

Lu Qinghuan looked at him as if he had seen a savior, and prayed: "You help me see my mother, can you save her?" Please save my mother......" said as a large string of tears flowed out.

The man seemed to be extremely unbearable and said, "Don't cry. As he spoke, he reached out to probe Zhao Shuying's snort and pulse in Qinghuan's arms.

Qing Huan looked at him with anticipation, only to see him say, "Your mother...... Go, you, mourn. ”

The hopeful eyes suddenly fell to the freezing point.

Lu Qinghuan looked down at his mother, whose face was a little blue in his arms, how could it be? Mother was fine just now, how could it be? This person must be lying to her...... Suddenly, her eyes went black, and she didn't know anything.

I vaguely heard someone next to me shouting twice in a hurry, "Ayi." ”

……

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Chu Lou sat on the upper seat of the hall, looking a little surprised.

"You're saying someone did it before you went?"

"Yes, and it looks like Mrs. Lu is seriously injured. When we were about to go up and do something to Miss Lu, someone suddenly came out to save her. That person can draw a ravine with just one sword qi, and the power is very high, and we quickly ran back if we were defeated. It was one of the men in black who answered.

"Who is it?" Chu Lou hurriedly asked. He was also a little flustered in his heart, why had he never heard of such a powerful person before.

"My subordinates don't know. And it stands to reason that if this man strikes, we will have nowhere to escape. Strangely, we didn't stop the man from escaping. The people who replied were also frightened, they thought that a group of people were going to be buried there, but they didn't think about this and let them go.

Chu Lou secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it should not have anything to do with the General's Mansion. And what about the previous group of assassins? And who? It's getting messy.
