Chapter 3: The Marquis of Zhenyuan

"It doesn't matter."

The young man's thin lips opened slightly, Rao is face was bloodless, and his tone was still calm as if it was a rippleless lake.

"How is it okay? So much blood was shed! ”

Murong Yan was anxious, frowned and lowered her anger, and couldn't help but get closer.

The young man's obsidian-like cold eyes seemed to move, and he raised his eyelids and stared at her, his eyes seemed to be a little gentle.

Is this woman caring about him?

Murong Yan's cheeks turned red when he saw it, and he hurriedly explained: "I just see that you are seriously injured......"

Speaking of this, Murong Yan stopped talking. I feel like "the more I depict it, the darker it gets".

The corners of the young man's lips seemed to rise slightly, and his tone was the same as always: "It's just a wound of flesh and skin." ”

Wounds of flesh and skin?

The injury is like this, and it is said that it is a flesh injury?

Murong Yan's beautiful eyes widened, staring straight at this mysterious young man, and only said, "The government is looking for you everywhere......"

Before he finished speaking, he heard a loud shout outside the house: "Search! ”

The young man's heart sank, and he was about to break out of the window, so as not to implicate the innocent.

But he didn't want Murong Yan to tear off the black cloth on the table, wrap it around his body, and jump out of the window first.

At this time, the group of officers and soldiers had already arrived outside the mud courtyard and were about to rush in to search the house. Suddenly, a dark shadow jumped out of the window and rushed through the back door of the courtyard into a field of rape flowers.

The leader on the tall horse had a flash of sharp eyes, and reprimanded: "Chase! ”

A group of soldiers chanting in unison, and chased in the direction where Murong Yan had fled.

Seeing this, Murong Qin hurriedly pushed the door into the inner room, and saw that there was no one in the room, only the black cloth on the table.

She hurried out of the yard and saw the leader of the horse aiming at the rape field, trying to draw his bow and shoot arrows.

Murong Qin was horrified, rushed out of the hut, and knelt down in front of the leading horse.

"My lord! Spare your life, sir......"

Before he could say a few more words, the Murong Qin clan had been detained by the soldiers left and right.

The leader froze, and looked condescendingly at the peasant woman in mourning clothes in front of him.

Before she could ask, she begged for mercy with teary eyes.

"Spare your life, my lord! It was not some court prisoner who fled, but the daughter of a woman who was suffering from her life......"

Before he finished speaking, he heard the voice of the soldier in the rape field: "Go! Let's go......"

The leader followed the prestige, and sure enough, he saw a weak and slender girl under his hand, kneeling in front of the horse.

Seeing the girl wearing a white shroud, and seeing the scattered paper money in the muddy yard, he already thought a little in his heart.

At this time, a small group of soldiers searched the inside and outside of the hut.

"Master Qiqi, I haven't found it!"

Murong Yanwu knelt down in front of the horse, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It's not in vain that she risked her life to stage this plan to divert the tiger from the mountain!

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a majestic voice above his head reprimand: "Keep chasing!" ”

With that, a group of soldiers sang a chorus, and they poured out of the courtyard like a torrent, and in an instant they had run out of the courtyard a hundred meters away.

"Ben asks you! You are not a prisoner of the imperial court, what are you running for? Zhen Yuan waited for himself to ride on the horse, staring condescendingly at the slender girl kneeling in front of the horse, and asked hesitantly.

Murong Yan's eyes were filled with a dark light, and she replied unhurriedly: "The folk girl didn't know that the Hou Ye had arrested the Qin criminal, so she only thought that the gel clothes bureau had come to get people, and she was panicked for a while, so she jumped out of the window and fled." I hope that the marquis will forgive his sins! ”

Murong Qin was stunned when he listened, full of doubts, but he didn't expose Murong Yan, he just buried his head in silence.

"You confess!"

The Marquis of Zhenyuan seemed to sneer, but he didn't.

However, listening to his words, it was obvious that he was convinced of Murong Yan's words.

"Escaping by coating, it is a big crime to punish the nine clans! Aren't you afraid that Ben Hou will take you to the Gelcoat Bureau and be punished? ”

After hearing what the Marquis of Zhenyuan said, Murong Qin's face suddenly turned pale and trembled.

was about to kowtow and beg for mercy, but he heard Murong Yan's unusually calm voice in his ear: "Lord Hou is generous and benevolent, and the people are naturally not afraid!" ”

Marquis Zhenyuan sneered: "I, Gu Chong, fought on the battlefield at the age of fifteen, and there have been many souls under the sword in the past ten years. Everyone in Leguo knows that I never blink an eye when I kill, but you say that I am generous and merciful? Girl, even if it's a sycophant, you have to find the right direction! ”

"I never talk about sycophants, I just tell the truth!"

Murong Yan raised her eyes to refute, without timidity.

No one has ever dared to be so unscrupulous in front of him!

Looking at the arrogant woman in front of the horse, Gu Chong, the Marquis of Zhenyuan, couldn't help but be stunned, and there were many good feelings in his heart.

"Well, tell me how generous and merciful you are?"

"The Hou Ye can clearly shoot the people's girls with one arrow. But as soon as I heard my mother's crying and explanation, she spared the people's daughter from dying. It can be seen that Hou Ye does not kill innocents indiscriminately, but is generous and loves the people. ”

Although Murong Yan's words were a little flattering, Gu Chong was very useful.

His bronzed face became gentle, he handed the bow and arrow in his hand to his left and right, and said with a pretence: "Don't think that if you don't die, you will be able to get away with it!" Gel coat fraud is not trivial......"

Before the words fell, seeing Murong Yan kowtowing deeply to him, he raised his voice and said: "This matter has nothing to do with my mother, and I also ask Master Hou to arrest one of the people's daughters and go to the gel clothing bureau to receive the crime!" ”

Murong Qin's heart tingled, and tears were hot and hot: "Yan'er......"

"You girl, aren't you really afraid of death?"

Gu Chongming's eyebrows were full of doubts, and he felt that the woman in front of him seemed like an impenetrable book.

The corners of Murong Yan's lips pulled out a bitter smile.

"The folk girl is naturally afraid of death, but she is even more afraid of affecting her family and the country. Moreover, rather than live to suffer sin, to die ...... It's a relief! ”

In just a few words, the words stuck in Gu Chong's heart.

His sword-like eyes swept over a trace of imperceptible sadness, and he sighed secretly and said, "That's it! Ben Hou's duty is only to arrest the Qin criminals...... However, you must not think about life and death, let alone think that you can escape......"

At this point, the man's resolute face couldn't help but show a little helplessness.

"Girl, you are very filial and a smart person! Ants still steal life...... Remember, no matter how long the night is, there will be a light in it! Man lives to survive, not to die! ”

Unexpectedly, the high-ranking Hou Ye would say such heart-wrenching words to her, Murong Yan's eyes were red for a while, and she looked straight at Gu Chong, not knowing what to say.

Seeing Gu Chong lifting the reins and riding away, Murong Yan helped Murong Qin to pick up, and the mother and daughter paced into the house.

"Yan'er, you are so bold! Even if you want to escape, you shouldn't do it in front of the officers and soldiers! Fortunately, I am generous, otherwise I ......"

"Mother, don't worry. I didn't expect that Gu Houding would not make a big deal about it, otherwise even if I borrowed ten guts, I wouldn't dare to do it. ”

Murong Yan sat on the wooden chair with Murong Qin in her arms, smiling lightly and looking determined.

Murong Qin looked at her suspiciously: "Why?" ”

"The Gel Clothing Bureau was set up by the three kingdoms of Qi, Wei and Ling, not Leguo. As the minister of Leguo, Gu Chong naturally will not take care of the idle affairs of the Gelwear Bureau, one of them. Second, the three countries set up a gel coat bureau in Leguo, which is called the selection of gel coats, but in fact, they are eyeing Leguo. If there is a gel coat to cheat and escape, these three countries will just make a big fuss, so as to make trouble, and when the time comes, the division will be famous, and it will just annex Leguo! ”

Murong Qin stared at Murong Yan in a daze and asked, "Yan'er, how could you think of so much?" ”

Murong Yan chuckled: "I'm just a folk girl, I can think of these things after listening to what you said before, let alone the emperor of Leguo and the courtier of Leguo?" Naturally, they are more cautious and cautious, and they will never let other countries find the slightest mistake. Weighing the pros and cons, Gu Chong naturally won't hand me over to the Gelcoat Bureau, so as not to give other countries a chance! ”

Murong Qin didn't seem to understand when he heard it, shook his head and sighed, and said, "I don't understand what you said." However, Gu Hou has a saying that is right, people live to survive, not to die......"

She grabbed Murong Yan with both hands, her eyes filled with tears, as if she was parting from life and death.

"Yan'er, promise your mother, you must live well!"

The tip of Murong Yan's nose was sour, and she nodded with tears in her eyes.

"I will! Mother, you must also take good care! ”

Murong Qin nodded and wiped away his tears, buried his head, and saw that Murong Yan's skirt was oozing blood, and his complexion suddenly changed greatly.

"Yan'er, are you injured?"

As he spoke, he lifted Murong Yan's skirt to check.

"It's just that when I came back from Yunxiu River, I accidentally injured my foot, and it was already bandaged. Probably because I ran too fast just now, I bleed more. Out of the way! ”

Murong Yan smiled and comforted.

Murong Qin's heart was distressed when he saw that the blood had soaked through the gauze wrapped around his feet.

"I still have some gold sore medicine at home, I'll go get it."

With that, Murong Qin got up and helped Murong Yan sit down, and then walked quickly to the other house.

Murong Yan's heart warmed, and a smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

It was getting late, and the hut was a little dark.

Murong Yan remembered that there was a fire fold and an oil lamp in her room, so she slowly paced into the room, intending to light the lamp.

But as soon as I entered the house, I was startled.

The young man in the forest sat crooked on a wooden chair!

In the dim light of the room, I saw that his chest was heaving, his breathing was short, and he seemed to be badly injured by an arrow wound in his back. The handsome face is extremely pale!

"You...... How do you ......"

Murong Yan stepped forward in surprise and looked at him suspiciously.

saw the young man's pale thin lips pull out a faint smile, "The most dangerous place is the safest place." Naturally, I was coming back. ”

Murong Yan's beautiful eyes flashed slightly, and her expression was suspicious, but she didn't believe it.

She was about to speak, when she suddenly heard the footsteps of the Murong Qin clan approaching outside the house, so she had to help the young man to the bed first, and put down the shabby curtain to cover it, so as not to be discovered by the Murong Qin clan.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Murong Qin walking into the house with gold sore medicine and some white cloth strips.

"Yan'er, your foot is injured, why are you still running around the house? Sit down. ”

Murong Qin's soft voice instructed, put the things on the table, and came to support Murong Yan.

Murong Yan sat on the wooden chair next to the bed with a smile, "Mother, I just shed some blood, it looks a little scary, but it doesn't hurt at all!" ”

"Don't coax me!"

Murong Qin's eyes were full of distress, and he was about to squat down to change the dressing for Murong Yan, but was helped up by Murong Yan.

"Mother, I have a small injury, I can take medicine."

"......"

"Mother, I'm a little hungry! Go cook it! ”
