Xiao Yu cursed and got out of the chariot and entered the palace, while Su Luo went directly back to the eldest princess' mansion.
When the carriage approached the corner of the street where the Princess's Mansion was located, a carriage filled with ink suddenly came forward. The carriage was blocked at the corner of the street. Suddenly the carriage turned sideways, and all the ink in the carriage was scattered.
came out.
The horse was frightened, raised its hooves and neighed.
Su Luo's coachman quickly stopped his carriage.
Seeing that the road ahead was blocked, and for a while, there was no way to pick up all the ink pads scattered on the ground, so the coachman could only back up the carriage, turn onto other roads, and turn to another entrance to go home.
It was already getting late, and even the bustling Gulou Street didn't have many pedestrians. However, when he turned into another street, a group of people came face to face.
A dark coffin was carried at the head, and behind the coffin were people dressed in white linen holding out funeral sticks. A huge group of forty or fifty people, men, women, old and young, were approaching them all the way, crying and crying.
The coachman secretly cursed at his bad luck, why there were accidents on two connected roads, but adhering to the principle that the deceased is the most important, he got out of the car and drove the carriage to the side of the road to make way for the oncoming coffin.
Chun Xing lifted the car curtain and looked out.
When he saw the black coffin, he immediately frowned and said, "Princess, something doesn't seem right about this."
Su Luo also looked outside, "What?"
Yuzhu sat next to him and said: "That coffin looks a lot bigger than the usual coffins. Even the coffins of aristocratic families will not use such a large coffin. Only people with the rank of concubine or above in the palace can use such a large coffin."
Use it, it has specific specifications.”
Chun Xing immediately said: "But the coffins in the palace shouldn't appear from here. This..."
Before Chun Xing finished speaking, Yuzhu suddenly grabbed Su Luo's wrist, "No, there's something wrong!"
Chun Xing was stunned for a moment, then turned to look out the window again.
In an instant, the lid of the coffin that had come first and was only a few steps away from Su Luo's chariot was suddenly lifted off, and two men dressed in gray linen and holding long swords emerged from inside.
As soon as the two men rushed out of the coffin, the tip of their swords aimed at Su Luo's carriage and stabbed straight at it.
Things happened too suddenly. Although Yuzhu had already judged the danger in advance, she couldn't handle the fact that the coffin was too close to them. She grabbed Su Luo's wrist and pulled Su Luo down hard.
"Hide!"
As he spoke, Yuzhu turned over and flew out of the carriage window. Holding the soft whip drawn from his waist, he rushed towards the flying person.
At the same time, the four secret guards protecting Su Luo also appeared, but they were tightly entangled by other people in the funeral procession, and the four people could not escape at all.
The entire funeral procession, men and women, young and old, all had exquisite and powerful skills.
Yuzhu was entangled with these two people. Their kung fu was vicious and deadly. Yuzhu was defeated within a few moves and was kicked away.
Su Luo was originally lying in the carriage, but she saw Yuzhu being kicked away at the crack of the door. A man stabbed Yuzhu directly with a sword. Su Luo's heart suddenly shrank and she climbed out of the carriage.
"Stop! Let her go!"
Su Luo suddenly came out of the carriage and shouted loudly, causing the fight on the scene to pause briefly.
Su Luo held a hairpin in her hand, which was pressed directly against her neck, "Let them go, or you won't get me alive."
These people definitely didn't show up in such a big way to get her body.
If it was just to kill her, he could have done it directly in secret, using a fire crossbow to kill her directly. There was no need to do this.
Standing on the carriage shaft, Su Luo clutched the hairpin tightly, "Let my people go, and I will go with you."
Yuzhu immediately called out, "Princess!"
But so what if you call me out.
If she can't protect Su Luo, even if Su Luo doesn't follow the other party now, as long as the other party kills them all, Su Luo will still have to be taken away.
There is no choice at all.
The eyes of those dead soldiers and secret guards instantly turned red.
They are the secret guards protecting Su Luo, but now they have to be protected by Su Luo.
The leader of that group of people was a sturdy man with a beard. It was difficult to say whether the beard was real, but it would twitch when he spoke.
He stared at the hairpin in Su Luo's hand for a moment, probably trying to judge whether there was a good chance of grabbing the hairpin.
After a moment of silence, he suddenly raised his hand and said, "Let them go!"
Yuzhu was originally stepped on the ground by someone, but the man had already raised his sword and was about to pierce Yuzhu's throat. Hearing this, he kicked Yuzhu away.
Yuzhu felt a tearing pain all over her body, but it was not as painful as her heart.
"Go, go!" Su Luo held on to the hairpin tightly, her hands shaking with fear, but she roared loudly.
Yuzhu glanced at Su Luo and bit her lip to hold back the tears in her eyes.
Last time outside the city gate, Chen Wu attacked them. It was because Su Luo cooperated with her that she was able to capture Chen Wu so easily.
This time, it was Su Luo who sacrificed himself again and saved their lives.
Either stay, they die and Su Luo is taken away, or they leave, Su Luo is taken away, and they can still go back and report the news.
There is no option at all.
Getting up from the ground, Yuzhu left with the four secret guards.
Su Luo threw away the hairpin in her hand and looked at the strong man at the head. Yuzhu and the others had just left, forgetting that Chunxing was still in the car. There was no way she would let these people discover that there was someone else in the car now.
Su Luo could only jump off the carriage by herself.
"I'll go with you."
"Miss!" Chun Xing screamed, crawling out of the car and grabbing Su Luo's arm, "There are still slaves here."
Chun Xing's eyes were filled with tears of fear, but her grip on Su Luo was tight.
Su Luo glared at her angrily.
What are you doing out here?
Isn’t this seeking death?
It's a pity that it's useless, it's too late, and once it comes out, there's no choice.
"Let my maid leave, and I will follow you."
Chun Xing shook her head, "No, I won't leave. It's impossible for me to leave. I will follow the lady. I will follow wherever the lady goes."
The man opposite had no patience to listen to their master-servant love, and said impatiently: "Take them all away!"
Two men came up from the opposite side and struck Su Luo and Chun Xing on the backs of their necks.
The hands rose and fell, and both of them fainted.
The coffin was thrown to the ground, blocking the whole street of the people walking together. After they succeeded, the group was broken into pieces. The two girls stepped forward and sent Su Luo and Chun Xing to the carriage hidden in the corner. The coachman drove
He walked away directly and disappeared into the dark night.
When Xiao Yu entered the palace, the emperor only asked a few questions about wine brewing and then let him go.
Xiao Yu rolled his eyes and walked out of the imperial study, striding out of the palace. After asking such a few questions, you still called me into the palace at night and delayed my good deeds!
Whistling, thinking of the little princess who had already arrived home, Xiao Yu felt the wind at her feet as she walked.
