In the carriage, Cui Hengyue knelt in the corner, lowered her head, and her body trembled slightly, looking timid as if she had seen a noble man.

"Thank you...Madam..." After thanking timidly, Cui Hengyue no longer dared to speak.

A gentle voice sounded: "Don't be afraid, little lady, don't be restrained, come, sit beside me."

Cui Hengyue waved her hand quickly: "It's not possible to use it, it's not possible to use it."

A hand that was well maintained reached over, and Cui Hengyue was so scared that she hurriedly retreated, but hit the wall of the carriage and screamed.

"You little lady, my wife kindly helps you. What do you mean? My wife is not a beast." The maid sitting next to Cui Hengyue couldn't help but speak.

Upon hearing this, Cui Hengyue's head lowered.

"Wutong, don't be rude."

The lady scolded the maid, continued to stretch out her hand, and said to Cui Hengyue softly: "Miss, I know you have suffered a sudden disaster. I am afraid and sad in my heart and cannot trust others.

"But please believe me once, I have no malice towards you, I just want to help you.

"Come on, sit next to me, I'll help you see the injuries."

Perhaps being soothed by her gentle voice, Cui Hengyue stared at her hand for a while, and finally reached out her hand timidly and placed it on her hand.

Her hands were soft and warm, and she felt familiar when touched. Cui Hengyue couldn't help but raise her head and look at the owner of her hand.

She was wearing a simple and elegant light green gauze dress, an oval face, long willow-leaf eyebrows, and a pair of phoenix eyes and smiling at Cui Hengyue, unable to say that she was bright and noble.

She did not give people a sense of alienation that was lofty, but a sense of kindness.

Cui Hengyue couldn't help but move to her side, wanting to get close to her: "Madam--"

"Come on, I'll help you see the wound on your arm."

The lady gently rolled up Cui Hengyue's sleeves and looked at it: "The wound is not very deep, but it has been soaked in dirty water for a long time and needs some cleaning."

As he said that, the lady stretched out her hand to the side: "Wutong, bring clean water and a towel and chew, and give me some wound medicine and gauze."

Cui Hengyue looked at Wutong next to her. She was a pretty little maid with a round face. However, Wutong no longer had the impatientness she had just now. She responded respectfully and went to prepare the things.

After preparing everything, the lady picked up the wet veil and gently wiped Cui Hengyue around the wound.

After rubbing it three times, she gently blew Cui Hengyue's wound.

Cui Hengyue was stunned.

The wife's movements were so gentle, completely different from Qionghua. Although Qionghua's movements were light when she bandaged her wounds, the wife gave her a very warm feeling.

Seeing Cui Hengyue's expression, Wutong couldn't help but say proudly: "My wife has a noble status and a kind heart. She will never dislike those with low status.

"When you meet someone who is sick, your wife will bandage them with wounds and feed them medicine..."

The lady turned her head and shouted lightly: "Wutong."

Wutong quickly lowered her head and admitted her mistake: "Madam, I'm talking too much. You said that you just want to do more good deeds and help more people with hardships. If others know these merits, you don't care.

"However, I didn't mean to promote it. I just saw that the little lady was too nervous and wanted to comfort her."

The lady didn't say anything else and continued to help Cui Hengyue treat the wound.

Cui Hengyue looked down at the hands that were busy for her, and couldn't help but admire her: the lady's every move was elegant, humble, and without any slight arrogance.

And she doesn't dislike her low status and dirty clothes. She treats her wounds and takes care of her mood with her own hands. She is really a rare kind person.

"alright."

The lady looked at Cui Hengyue's arm with satisfaction and smiled slightly, "I'll arrive at the inn later. I'll ask someone to prepare a piece of clothes for you. After taking a shower, you can change it and let's have a meal together."

After saying that, the lady pushed the pastry on the table to Cui Hengyue: "Now, eat some pastries first to fill your stomach, but don't eat too much, so as not to eat later."

"Okay." Cui Hengyue responded obediently and went to get the pastry.

The lady looked at her pity: "I heard from Xiuyun that there were bandits in your village, and you were sent out by your parents to the death.

"I don't know what your village is, so I might as well tell me. I'll tell the government that they will send officers and soldiers to suppress the bandits, and then you can find your parents' bodies."

Cui Hengyue paused, but she didn't expect that there would be another one.

Immediately afterwards, Cui Hengyue chewed, swallowed the pastry in her mouth, and replied: "Thank you, Madam for your concern, but before I met Madam, I met several officials and told them the truth.

"Perhaps they have gone to the village now."

At this time, Wutong interrupted and said, "Then why don't you go back to the village with the official officer?"

Cui Hengyue's heart skipped a beat, and soon thought of the reason: "My parents were beaten into the water by bandits to save me, and their bodies were washed away by the flood.

"The officials have all gone to suppress the bandits, and no one has gone to salvage the bodies, let alone no one knows where the bodies were washed, so I want to find my parents' bodies...the bodies..."

Speaking of this, Cui Hengyue's eyes were red and she choked and said, "I have no way to avenge them, I can only find their bones and let them be buried..."

Seeing Cui Hengyue's tears filling her eyes, a feeling of sorrow suddenly surged in her heart. She held Cui Hengyue's hand and patted her gently: "Child, don't worry, you will definitely find your parents, and I will help you."

Cui Hengyue looked excited: "Thank you, Madam, I will never forget my great kindness. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely repay Madam."

So, the lady ordered Wutong: "Go and tell Zeng Ming and ask him to send some people to search along the Ganges..."

While they were talking, Cui Hengyue secretly lifted up the curtain in front of the car window and looked out.

But after only a few glances, she put down the curtain and sat quietly.

Just now, the people of the King of Chu passed by the carriage. They dressed as civilians and looked around. When they saw the veiled people coming forward to investigate.

They must be looking for themselves.

Cui Hengyue was a little panicked. She finally escaped and must not be arrested.

She looked at the master and servant who were still talking, and thought in her heart: This lady saw that her status was not low and she was so kind. She might as well follow this lady first, escape from the pursuit of the King of Chu before finding a way to return to the Cui family.

At this time, the carriage suddenly stopped and a voice came from outside: "Madam, you're at the inn."

Wutong pushed open the car door, got off the carriage first, and then shouted in, "Miss, come down quickly."

Cui Hengyue first looked out and saw that there were no suspicious people around her. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief and jumped out of the carriage with her head hanging down.

Wutong reached out to help her wife again.

"Madam Cui——"

A woman wearing thick makeup appeared from somewhere in a gorgeous way, pushed Cui Hengyue away, came to her wife, and said with a saliva: "I don't know that Mrs. Cui came to Mingyang Town today and was in a bad mood. I would like to ask Mrs. Cui to forgive her crime."

"Madam Cui?" Cui Hengyue was a little surprised, with a hint of confusion in her expression.

For some reason, she always felt that Mrs. Cui had some connection with her.

The little maid next to him saw Cui Hengyue's shocked look and couldn't help but show off: "That's right, my wife is the eldest wife of Duke Jingguo Mansion and the eldest aunt of His Majesty now."

Cui Hengyue was stunned.

The eldest lady of the Duke of Jingguo Mansion?

Isn't that her... aunt?
