Mei Xue returned to the inn and simply packed her baggage and prepared to return to Luoyang.

When she got out of the courtyard gate, she found that Shen Qingyang was already waiting for her, next to the two horses they rode when they came.

The prisoners related to the case of Princess Chenyang are naturally escorted by the government.

It was late autumn, and the mountain road in the evening was cold and windy.

Mei Xue and Shen Qingyang rode two white horses galloping side by side, with a narrow passage in front of them and towering cliffs on both sides.

Shen Qingyang suddenly shouted, reached out and grabbed the reins in Mei Xue's hand.

The two galloping white horses were stopped by him at the same time, and they let out a long neighing sound together.

Mei Xue immediately hugged the white horse's neck and leaned over to keep herself firmly attached to the horse's back.

"There is an ambush, you run."

Shen Qingyang didn't have time to say more, and punched the horse that Mei Xue was riding, and he himself had already drawn his sword and rushed forward.

The shouts of killing suddenly rose, and hundreds of people rushed out of the woods on both sides of the road.

Judging from the weapons in their hands alone, Mei Xue could also see that these people must be officers and soldiers, but they didn't wear those clothes.

And the only ones who could mobilize officers and soldiers to ambush them thousands of miles away were naturally Yan Tie and his family.

Knowing that staying would only add to Shen Qingyang's burden, Mei Xue did not hesitate at all, and ran back.

However, there were still too many ambushes, and Shen Qingyang obviously couldn't stop them all in time, and an arrow hit the hip of the white horse that Mei Xue was riding.

Another arrow flew over Mei Xue's head.

If she hadn't leaned over the horse, the arrow would have hit her in the back.

The white horse was frightened and no longer ran back along the mountain road, but ran madly up the mountain.

Shen Qingyang, who was fighting hard, quickly glanced at the direction where Mei Xue and Bai Ma disappeared, and his eyes instantly turned blood-red.

Branches and thorns swept across her head, face and body, Mei Xue clenched her teeth in pain, but she didn't dare to close her eyes, and kept nervously searching for an opportunity to jump off the horse.

Crazy horses gallop through the rocky mountains, and at any time they can fall deep into the mountains or crash into the rock walls, which is fatal.

However, Mei Xue hadn't found the right time yet, and she had already felt the horse under her step into the air.

She immediately pulled her feet out of the pedals and clamped her horse's back tightly, trying to keep her whole body as close to the horse's back as possible.

The night was dark, the wind was whistling in her ears, Mei Xue gritted her teeth and closed her eyes.

The moment she landed, Mei Xue's heart was suddenly relieved, because she could be sure that her entire body was cushioned by the white horse.

Mei Xue believed that Shen Qingyang would definitely survive, and he would come to her.

The throat was dry and uncomfortable, Mei Xue struggled to cough twice, and immediately felt water reach her mouth.

She hurriedly took a few sips, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Shen Qingyang half-naked.

She was held in his arms, wrapped in his clothes, bloodstained clothes.

Looking at each other, Shen Qingyang's eyes were red, and he choked up and said:

"Mei Xue, I really ...... before I found you. Really scared, I thought I was going to lose you forever. ”

Mei Xue looked at Shen Qingyang's red eyes and the new wounds on her neck and shoulders, and silently sighed in her heart and said:

"Lord Shen, I'm fine, I'm just fainting, you let me go!"

Shen Qingyang hurriedly stood up with Mei Xue in his arms, and put her on the flat ground next to the fire.

It was a very spacious cave, and Mei Xue took a few more sips of water slowly with a water bladder, and looked at the dark night outside speechlessly.

Shen Qingyang went outside to cut a piece of horse meat and came back, sat on the stone next to the fire and roasted it slowly.

He quietly glanced at Mei Xue, twisted his face away again, and said:

"I'm just afraid that you'll be cold, so I'm ...... I just hugged you for a while, and I didn't do anything else. ”

Mei Xue looked at Shen Qingyang, smiled calmly and said:

"My trust in Lord Shen doesn't stop there. Also, thank you for coming back to me. ”

On such a cold night, if Shen Qingyang didn't find her in time, even if she could survive, she would inevitably be injured.

Shen Qingyang licked his lips and smiled, like a child who had been praised.

The two of them ate the barbecue separately, Shen Qingyang insisted on letting Mei Xue drink more water, and he himself refused to drink a sip.

It was dawn soon, Mei Xue refused to let Shen Qingyang carry her, and she followed him step by step down the mountain with difficulty.

Before he reached the foot of the mountain, he met the officers and soldiers who searched the mountain.

The chief soldier Yuan Hao quickly came over and said to Shen Qingyang excitedly:

"Lord Shen, Miss Mei, I can be regarded as finding you."

Shen Qingyang killed the soldiers in ambush, and the caravan walking at night found the corpse and reported it to the Qingzhou Mansion overnight.

Shen Qingyang smiled coldly and ignored Yuan Hao.

Yuan Hao laughed more ugly than crying, knelt on the ground and explained bitterly.

The people who ambushed Shen Qingyang and Mei Xue were indeed officers and soldiers, but they did not belong directly to him, but officers and soldiers stationed in Shouguang County.

Shen Qingyang snorted, took the water bladder held by Yuan Hao and drank a few sips before saying:

"You find out the matter clearly, especially the relationship between these people and the Yan family and the Tie family, and report it to the capital to me."

Yuan Hao responded in succession, leading Mei Xue and Shen Qingyang to the bottom of the mountain.

After changing clothes and eating in the town, Mei Xue treated Shen Qingyang's wounds again.

Yuan Hao had already asked people to re-prepare horses, dry food, water bladders and other things, and when he watched Shen Qingyang and Mei Xue go away, he wiped the sweat on his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.

With the strength of one person, he killed more than 300 well-trained soldiers with knives and arrows, but he only suffered some skin injuries, and in the entire Great Jin Dynasty, Shen Qingyang probably had this ability.

But the miracle doctor named Mei Xue is also powerful enough, a little girl, after such a dangerous night, she is not even half different.

On the way back, Mei Xue and Shen Qingyang rushed to the thatched hut in the middle of the night, she changed Shen Qingyang's dressing, smiled and said:

"Lord Shen's shoulders and back are almost covered with scars."

Shen Qingyang also smiled, put on his clothes without caring and said:

"God has rewarded me with several lives, what is this scar?"

Mei Xue was silent for a while, but still said softly:

"If your mother and your sister have spirits in the sky, they will definitely feel distressed when they see you like this."

Shen Qingyang ignored Mei Xue, twisted his face and gave her a back to stand.

Mei Xue sighed softly and continued:

"Whether it's for those who love us or for those we love, we deserve to live better.

For example, you can at least drink less alcohol and take more care of your body. ”

After a long time, Shen Qingyang finally turned around, with tears in his eyes, but his voice was very cold:

"I thought about living well, but you didn't let me love you."

After speaking, Shen Qingyang walked out without looking back.

Mei Xue was stunned, and it took a long time to bite her lip and twist her face to the side.

Throughout the second half of the night, Shen Qingyang did not enter the house again.

After dawn, Mei Xue walked out of the hut and found that Shen Qingyang was already waiting for her.

Silent all the way, the two of them arrived at the gate of Luoyang City at the end of noon.

Mei Xue went to the Shu Palace, and Shen Qingyang entered the palace directly.

Mei Gang and Gao Yuan were guarding the gate of the mansion, and as soon as they saw Mei Xue, the two of them ran up to meet them.

Mei Xue came back much earlier than expected.

Mei Gang looked at the scratches on Mei Xue's face and neck distressedly, but he couldn't say anything.

Gao Yuan was directly anxious, and refused to let Mei Xue walk again, so he called a soft sedan chair to come and carry her.

Mei Xue couldn't cry or laugh, so she had to accept Gao Yuan's arrangement.

Li Jinzhi and Song Zhijie should be talking together, and the two of them came out together.

Mei Xue was dusty, with blood scabs on her hands and face with slight scratches.

Li Jin's heart pursed her lips in distress, and there was no smile on her face.

Song Zhijie glanced at Li Jinzhi and lowered his eyes with a smile.

The three of them sat down, Mei Xue talked in detail about Cai Yu and the attack on the way, and Song Zhijie smiled and said:

"Very good, the Tie family has finally made a move. Shizi, Miss Mei, I still have some things to deal with, so I'll leave first. ”

Li Jinzhi and Mei Xue both stood up, Song Zhijie signaled that they didn't need to send it, and left quickly alone.

Mei Xue smiled slightly and said to Li Jinzhi:

"Looking at Mr. Song's impatient appearance, the good news is probably coming soon."

Li Jinzhi didn't answer her words, put the fan on the table, and the person had already walked in front of her.

"I know it must be much worse than you say, these wounds, these wounds ......"

Li Jinzhi's eyes were full of anxiety, and he raised his hand, but he didn't dare to touch Mei Xue.

Mei Xue was amused by Li Jinzhi's helpless appearance, and comforted him and said:

"It's not even a skin injury, so the prince doesn't have to worry about it. I'll go back and rest for a while, and tomorrow I'm going to go into the palace to see the princess and the crown princess. ”

After Mei Xue finished speaking, she walked out, but Li Jinzhi couldn't help it after all, and wrapped her around Mei Xue's waist from behind and hugged her into his arms.

Li Jinzhi has a faint medicinal fragrance on her body, much like when her mother held her in the past, it was also like this, which made her feel inexplicably relieved.

After a long time, Mei Xue gently touched Li Jinzhi's hand and said:

"Then I'll go back first, you can take a nap in peace."

Li Jinzhi slowly let go of his hand, and watched Mei Xue walk out, and he hurriedly followed out again.

Gao Yuan was still waiting in the courtyard, and as soon as he saw Mei Xue, he hurriedly beckoned the mother-in-law who was carrying the sedan chair to come over.

In this way, he was not at ease, so he followed him and sent it to the inner courtyard.

Peng Liang was stunned from the side, and said to Li Jinzhi:

"Master, what's wrong with Gao Yuan? He embarrassed Miss Mei. ”

Li Jinzhi smiled and said to Peng Liang:

"Let Gao Yuan receive two monthly payments this month, but you don't have it."

Peng Liang opened his mouth wide again, only then did he notice that Li Jinzhi's face was flushed, he hurriedly turned his face to look in the direction where Mei Xue left, and finally laughed as if he had suddenly realized.

Li Jinzhi's face turned even redder, and after kicking Peng Liang, he turned around and entered the house.
