Chapter 14 Zhu Yi
Xin You hesitated for a while, but still opened his mouth to call the person to stop.
The reason was of course not that she was fascinated by the beauty of the man in red clothes, but that she saw it again.
Just now, she suddenly saw this man walking on the street, and a flower pot fell from the sky, smashing his head and causing blood.
Xin You hesitated because she didn't know how to remind the other party, but since Fang Yi acted first, she couldn't just ignore him.
The man in red clothes frowned as he watched the girl getting closer and closer.
He seemed to smell a smell, as if--
A guess flashed through his mind, and the man in red's eyes darkened.
"What else can you do, girl?"
Xin You paused and heard a hint of coldness in the man in red's calm tone.
She didn't take it seriously.
That day, it was this horse that pulled her from the small mountain village to Shaoqing's mansion.
Xinyou ignored the coachman's explanation and walked towards the fallen horse.
Xiao Lian's face turned cold: "You had the nerve to ask the girl if anything was okay, how did you drive the cart? The horse pulling the cart was frightened and didn't say anything, and you jumped out of the car, not caring about the girl's life or death!"
The two guards waved their hands in unison: "No, no, no -"
It’s normal for others to be impatient if they don’t want to tell you their identity and they want to leave but are stopped.
"Miss Kou, don't take it to heart." Although he found it strange, the man in red clothes didn't intend to go into details. He responded politely and rode away.
Xin You stood where he was, looking at the man in red's leaving figure and sighed inaudibly.
Xin You was afraid that the other party would leave before she finished speaking, so she sped up her words and whispered in a low voice: "I see that the Yintang of the Righteous Soldiers is dark, and there may be a bloody disaster. It is best not to walk downstairs on the street recently to avoid disasters falling from the sky.
.”
Now that you know the other party's official position, it is not difficult to know the other party's identity. You don't have to ask the two guards.
The two guards were also shocked.
You must listen to why this little maid is crying before leaving.
The other guard had a mysterious look on his face: "Not only can't you offend me, but you can't get close to him either. That one -"
The passers-by who stopped to watch the excitement due to frightened horses were about to disperse, but now they stopped moving.
"I cried when I fell off a cliff and frightened my horse." Xin You said softly and quickly, listening to the footsteps of the coachman approaching.
"Do you know him?"
He thought it was weird for a weak-looking girl to have that smell on her body, but he didn't expect her to be even weirder.
Xiaolian was stunned, not understanding the meaning of these words.
Xin You frowned: "That righteous man saved my life and refused to reveal his identity without wanting to repay me. Does it mean that I, the rescued person, feel at ease and nothing happened?"
Another guard said: "That person's identity is not easy to offend."
Although Xiaolian still didn't understand why she did this, the trust she had built up in these days made her cry loudly without hesitation.
Xin You finished speaking in one breath, took two steps back, curtsied to the man in red clothes, and raised her voice: "My surname is Kou, and Duan Shaoqing of Taipu Temple is my uncle. I will remember the kindness of the righteous men in saving me today."
Facing Xin You's puzzled eyes, the guard looked around subconsciously and lowered his voice: "Young man, I've seen that guy with his men to take care of people. Miss, have you seen that guy wearing red clothes? He's new to the job not long ago.
The envoy of Jinlin Guard Town cannot be offended."
"As the girl just said, her surname is Kou, and Duan Shaoqing of Taipu Temple is her uncle."
After hearing Xinyou's announcement, the man in red couldn't help but look at her one more time.
"Cry." Xin You uttered one word softly.
"My maid is just afraid that something will happen to you again..." Xiao Lian hugged Xin You, and the other person's warm body temperature made her cry more and more realistically.
Even though she didn't understand horses, she knew that the horses pulling carts were docile. Miss Kou fell off the cliff first, and the medicine that nourished her health turned into poison later. She didn't think that the horse's frightened horse was an accident.
He hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Only then did the two guards come forward, and one of them couldn't help but said: "Cousin, why did you tell that person your identity -"
The two guards kept silent and stopped talking about the man in red clothes, and Xin You didn't ask any more questions.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Xiaolian covered her face and looked into the pair of sad black eyes through her fingers. She was so blessed that she understood Xinyou's intention, "Girl, you are the old lady's only granddaughter. If you
For whatever reason, how sad it would be for the old lady to have a white-haired person give away a black-haired person again..."
The man in red clothes caught a glimpse of the carriage from the corner of his eye, and added something in his mind: Oh, he was riding in a carriage without a curtain.
For a girl from a civil servant's palace, that would be even more strange.
Seeing Xin You being like this, Xiao Lian didn't care about scolding the driver, walked over quickly, and asked in a low voice: "Girl, did you find something?"
And if it wasn't an accident, how did the mastermind frighten the horse?
Drug? Or is the horse suddenly in pain?
Xin You walked around the dead horse and stopped to observe carefully.
I don’t know if the other party listened to her words of pretending to be a magic stick.
After they walked away, the onlookers curiously discussed Xinyou's identity.
"Physiognomy?" The man in red clothes was stunned and took a deep look at Xin You.
As for the impact that Xiaolian's crying would have on Shaoqing's Mansion, the coachman and the guards who were in the situation had not yet thought about it, and they only tried to persuade the master and servant to return home quickly.
"My poor girl, I fell off a cliff while hiking with my cousins a few days ago, and managed to survive. Today when I went out, I encountered a frightened horse again. If the righteous man hadn't saved me, I would have collided with the bullock cart...
"
"Okay, I'm fine, don't cry anymore." Xin You frowned, but felt relieved in her heart because of Xiao Lian's tacit understanding.
"Cousin--" came the shout, the coachman was panting, he was running over, "Are you okay?"
As for the faint stigma that this crying brought to Shaoqing's house, let's just think of it as collecting some interest for Miss Kou first.
The two guards looked at each other, and the guard who spoke just now explained in a low voice: "Cousin, that's not what I mean, it's the identity of that person——"
In a short period of time, she would not be able to find out the reason why the horse was frightened, and she would have no chance to find out when she returned to Shaoqing's Mansion. People in the world are gossipy and suspicious, and when Xiaolian cries, someone will always think of a conspiracy, as long as there is someone
After hearing this kind of news, the person who harmed Kou Qingqing had to think carefully before taking action again.
After pondering for a while, Xin You lowered her voice and asked: "Do righteous men believe in physiognomy?"
"Xiaolian, don't cry anymore."
"Going back." Xin You didn't waste any more time and took Xiao Lian into the carriage that the guard rented at a high price from passers-by.
The driver ran so fast that his hair fell apart, and he burst into tears after hearing this: "Old slave, I deserve to die. When I saw the ox cart coming from the other side, my mind went blank, and I forgot everything..."
"Cousin--" the coachman started to speak, but the rest of his words were suppressed by the sudden wail of the little maid.
"Ahem." The guard who spoke first pulled his companion.
"It turns out she's the cousin of Shaoqing's house. So what's going on with the white-haired person giving the black-haired person to her?"
"I don't know. I don't stand out in Shaoqing's mansion in the capital, so I don't pay any attention to him."
"Then ask around?"
"Walk."
