Chapter Nineteen Panic
Su Changle rushed back to the Princess's Mansion with a bumpy journey.
Her brows were frowning, and her lips were bitten and had no blood left. Her hands held the edge of her cloak tightly, and from time to time she raised her hand to open the car curtain and look outside.
Anyone could see Su Changle's anxiety. Even Azhu, who had been with her for so many years, did not dare to speak out.
Su Changle knew that he had never been so panicked as now.
Jiang Shen.
Jiang Shen...
Su Changle recited this name silently in her heart all the way. She didn't know what would happen to the helpless Jiang Shen if she was a little late now.
As soon as the carriage stopped, Su Changle rushed into the house with her skirt in hand and ran directly to Lin Huaichuan's room.
Su Changle clicked all the way, without the usual politeness, and directly raised his hand to push Lin Huaichuan's door open.
"Huaichuan, take me to the ghost market!"
Lin Huaichuan had just finished taking a shower and was now sitting on the edge of the bed wiping his hair with a dry towel.
He just heard the footsteps running outside and knew the person coming was Su Changle.
Although he was not surprised that the visitor was Su Changle, he was a little confused when he saw Su Changle's appearance. He threw the dry towel aside, picked up a hairpin, tied up his hair, and greeted him: "You
What's going on?"
Su Changle pulled him and walked out: "It's too late to explain. We'll talk about it on the way."
"Wait a minute." Lin Huaichuan broke free from Su Changle's hand, turned around and grabbed a set of clothes, and then followed Su Changle outside. "You are going to freeze me to death."
"If it had been slower, people might have died."
Lin Huaichuan had known Su Changle for a long time and knew that Su Changle must have something important to do now.
He followed Su Changle while putting his clothes neatly on. Then he took Su Changle to the stable, pulled out the horse he usually rode, and pulled Su Changle up.
"Sit tight and ride fast."
Su Changle usually rides in a carriage, so this delicate little girl has been pampered since she was a child.
"Okay, let's go quickly."
Su Changle didn't show any pretense, he directly grabbed the saddle and was held in Lin Huaichuan's arms.
After galloping all the way, Lin Huaichuan took Su Changle to an alley.
There are no people in the ghost market, and it is specially set up in the middle of the night. No one knows where the ghost market is, and you can only find contacts scattered in the market.
There are no rules in this place, only having money is the rule.
No matter what news you want, or you can't make a deal on the table, you can trade here.
Su Changle had known about this place for a long time, but this was actually her first time coming here. Normally, if something happened, she would tell Huaichuan and ask him to come here to meet her.
But today, she couldn't wait any longer.
Lin Huaichuan reined in his horse, dismounted himself, and then lifted Su Changle down from the top.
He led Su Changle through many twists and turns, and finally knocked on the door of a dilapidated pawn shop.
This is an alley that Su Changle would never enter normally. It is gloomy inside. Other shops have long been closed, leaving only the lantern at the door of this pawn shop that is still lit.
It's obviously waiting for a "guest" who comes specifically to find it.
Dang Dang Dang.
Lin Huaichuan raised his hand and knocked on the door three times. Su Changle didn't hear a response from the person inside, so Lin Huaichuan pulled him into the pawn shop.
As soon as he opened the door, Su Changle smelled a stale smell.
Su Changle's house usually smelled fragrant. She had never smelled such a smell before, and she wrinkled her nose subconsciously.
The inside of the pawn shop was gloomy, there was no one in the stall, only a few candles were burning out inside.
Su Changle looked at Lin Huaichuan and found that he was also a little confused.
"Is there no one here?" Su Changle tugged on Lin Huaichuan's sleeve.
Lin Huaichuan patted her hand and raised his hand to shake the bell hanging on the stall.
Jingle bell bell…
There was a crisp ringing of the bell, and when the sound gradually faded, the door inside was heard to creak, and the sound of gentle footsteps seemed to be accompanied by a small yawn.
The man stood behind the stall and said to Lin Huaichuan and Su Changle, "Is there anything I can do to help our guest?"
The stall entrance was covered tightly with wooden boards from top to bottom, leaving only a square opening for transactions.
Su Changle couldn't see the people inside, but he could only tell that the boss inside was a woman——
She is still a charming woman.
But Su Changle didn't have time to think carefully about the people here. She only went up and said: "I want to know the whereabouts of a person now, and the sooner the better."
The voice inside said lazily: "Please tell me all the news, girl."
Su Changle told the people inside Jiang Shen's name and the time he just disappeared.
The people inside were obviously reading Suosuo's records on the paper. When Su Changle finally handed in a thick stack of banknotes, the people inside said: "You are so generous, girl. Are you worried about this matter?"
Su Changle nodded: "It's very urgent."
"It's probably not difficult. Girl, just wait here."
After the people inside said that, they turned around and returned to the inner room.
Su Changle turned around and looked at Lin Huaichuan who didn't know what he was thinking: "What's wrong with you?"
Lin Huaichuan frowned and said, "This pawn shop has changed its owner."
Su Changle didn't quite understand: "So?"
Lin Huaichuan shook his head and had no intention of saying anything. He looked at Su Changle and said, "I knew you were so anxious because of that Jiang Shen."
Speaking of Jiang Shen, Su Changle became worried again: "Do you think Jiang Shen will be in any danger?"
Lin Huaichuan thought for a while: "I don't think so."
Su Changle actually thought so too. She had just experienced a bump on the road on horseback, which had shaken her mind out of chaos.
Jiang Shen is the person she wants, and there is even Wei Yue standing behind him.
Now it seems that Jiang Shen only blocked Fu Yan's path, but if Jiang Shen died, Fu Yan would definitely not be able to escape his involvement.
As smart as Fu Yan, he would never let himself get into this matter.
At least not now.
His purpose is to marry himself, not to kill someone.
Who else?
Su Changle couldn't figure out that the reason why she came to the ghost market to inquire about Jiang Shen's whereabouts instead of searching in a big way was that she didn't know who was watching Jiang Shen behind his back.
Lin Huaichuan was also thinking about things. Both of them had their own thoughts and were waiting for news about the ghost market.
Within a quarter of an hour, a burst of soft footsteps came over.
"Girl, that person is here."
Su Changle walked over and looked at a piece of paper handed out from the square opening. The hand was very slender, and the nails were dyed with bright red kodan.
Su Changle reached out and took the note: "Thank you very much."
"It's just a transaction, girl, don't worry about it."
After the voice spoke, the man turned around and went back to the inner room, not caring at all about what happened outside or who Su Changle was.
Bringing the good qualities of a businessman to the extreme.
Lin Huaichuan took the note and glanced at it, then took Su Changle out and got on his horse, galloping through the night.
A tiger father has no dog son. Lin Huaichuan was originally the son of a general. If he hadn't taken Su Changle into consideration, he would have been able to ride the horse faster.
But even at this speed, Su Changle felt that it was already very fast.
If she hadn't been worried about Jiang Shen, Su Changle might have been vomited on the way.
Of course, Lin Huaichuan protected Su Changle against his chest and ran all the way to Baixiawan.
Oddly enough, there is not much snow in Jinling in a year, and even if it does snow, it can't stay, because it will all melt as soon as the sun shines.
But now, it's snowing again.
The snowflakes were very big, floating in the air, and soon the ground was covered with a layer of white snow.
When Su Changle saw Jiang Shen, it was such a scene.
He was lying on the ground with a pale face, his black hair scattered all over the ground, and a few drops of solidified blood on his face were shocking. The pools of blood surrounding him had been covered by a thin layer of snow, leaving only traces.
Is he... still alive?
Su Changle held her breath for a moment. She couldn't see the ups and downs of Jiang Shen's chest, nor could she see Jiang Shen's movements.
He just lay there quietly, with only the red eyes covered by snow.
Su Changle was carried off the horse by Lin Huaichuan. She should have run over.
But now...
Su Changle paused on the spot. She looked at this scene and seemed like she couldn't think anymore. She could only mutter in her mouth: "Jiang Shen, Jiang Shen..."
Lin Huaichuan thought Su Changle was frightened, so he walked up to Jiang Shen's side.
He knelt down and probed Jiang Shen's breath with his fingers.
He sighed secretly, turned to Su Changle and said, "Come here, you still have some energy."
"Jiang Shen!"
After Su Changle heard what Lin Huaichuan said, he ran over.
The originally clean embroidered shoes stepped on the blood stains through the snow, leaving only rows of small bloody footprints.
Su Changle rushed to Jiang Shen's side. Seeing that his face was even paler than what she had just seen from a distance, she reached out regardless and wiped away the blood on Jiang Shen's face.
"Jiang Shen, Jiang Shen!"
Su Changle shouted, but Jiang Shen didn't respond to her.
"Don't worry. He has been found. Why panic? The key now is to find a doctor for him. Otherwise, even if he is not dead now, he may freeze to death in a while."
Lin Huaichuan hated Jiang Shen to begin with, so of course the words coming out of his mouth were not pleasant.
He felt that if he could even think about rescuing people, he would be giving Jiang Shen a lot of face.
Su Changle nodded and looked at the horse waiting obediently: "Huaichuan, take Jiang Shen and ride to find the doctor. I can go back by myself!"
"How can that be done?" Lin Huaichuan frowned, "How can I leave you here alone at this late night? If the prince and princess find out, why don't you come over and make trouble with me?"
"Then what should we do?" Su Changle thought for a while and felt a little embarrassed, "We can't have three people together on that horse, right?"
"What do you think of my baby?!" Lin Huaichuan snorted, subconsciously wanting to leave Jiang Shen where he was.
But……
Lin Huaichuan looked at the little girl squatting on the ground with a worried face.
never mind.
Lin Huaichuan gritted his teeth, pulled Jiang Shen up from the ground, dragged him all the way and finally threw him onto the horse's back. Then he helped Su Changle onto the horse's back.
Su Changle got on the horse and subconsciously hugged Jiang Shen to prevent him from falling off.
"What about you?" Su Changle asked.
Lin Huaichuan was obviously in a very bad mood. He kept comforting the horse, which was a little irritable because of the outsider riding on it: "Of course I'm holding the horse for you."
After calming the horse, Lin Huaichuan raised his head and looked at Su Changle: "He won't die for a while. You'd better take care of yourself. Hold on tightly and don't fall."
"Yeah, don't worry."
"I really owe you, you have to think carefully about how to repay me when you go back." Lin Huaichuan hummed, leading the horse to the nearest hospital.
"Of course." Su Changle replied quickly.
