"Miss!" Lu Yun saw his lady carrying the package filled with gold and silver jewelry directly out. He ignored the snot and tears on his face and was afraid of being discovered, so he hid behind the door and whispered hastily, "That's our
All the expenses!——"
Yang Jinxi did not reply, standing straight in front of the carriage door. Since they had entered the territory of Kyoto, they were not far away from the Fourth Prince. If this gangster was just greedy for money, then the silver coins in her hand would be enough to save their lives.
If the gangster wanted more than just money, even if she hid the money, she would still die. In the end, the money would still fall into his hands, so why should she bother with it.
The gangster took a closer look and saw that it was a young woman who got off the carriage. Although the gauze covered her face, her eyes were sparkling. It is not difficult to imagine that she must have fine skin and white flesh under the gauze. Thinking of this, that person
A wretched smile immediately appeared on his face, and the groom beside him stepped forward to stop him without fear of death. The man waved his hands impatiently and kicked the groom away. Seeing this, Lu Yun immediately retracted into the carriage,
Hiding in the corner with trembling hands and feet.
"Ouch -" the groom screamed in pain and fell into the grass next to him. He rolled a few times before stopping. After all, he was used to living in Yang's house and it was not like a young and strong boy who fell to the ground.
There was no movement for a while.
The groom lay motionless in the grass. He was afraid that the kick he received was seriously injured at the moment. Yang Jinxi's brows jumped and her heart became heavier. She vaguely felt that the current situation was a bit tricky and she should bring more people out.
I once thought that people were robbing people all over Kyoto.
The gangster, who was tall and tall, gradually approached the carriage, grabbed the package from her hand, and shook it in his hand. He was secretly happy. He saw that the girl was dressed simply, without any jewelry or hairpins on her body, and there were not many people around her.
This follower turned out to be the daughter of a wealthy family, and he made a lot of money today.
"Under the blue sky and the bright sun, this strong man is doing this on the official road, and he is not afraid of surprising the officers and soldiers?" Yang Jinxi tried carefully, trying to get some useful information from him. It would be better to delay the time.
Unexpectedly, the gangster was not afraid after hearing this. Instead, he looked up to the sky and laughed, his voice full of anger, which echoed in the woods for a long time. He took a step forward with a bad smile: "Sir, since I dare to come here, why should I be afraid of mere officers and soldiers? Huh?"
"
The tone of his voice rose slightly at the end of his words, his face was sinister, and the smell of sweat on his body was nauseating. Yang Jinxi subconsciously took a small step back, and endured the discomfort in her heart. Her figure was no longer petite, but she was standing on the carriage.
Xanadu still had to look up to see this person's eyes, which made her heart beat. She clutched her gauze skirt tightly and did not dare to move any more.
"A strong man has a mighty physique. I guess those officers and soldiers can't do anything to you." Yang Jinxi held her breath and listened attentively to the rustling of leaves all around. She seemed to hear the sound of horse hooves now. Could it be that she was too nervous and had hallucinations? Although she thought in her heart
He was anxious, but looked at the package in his arms with a chuckle on his face, "Since the strong man has collected the money, can you keep your promise and let us leave?"
But this time she made the wrong calculation. The gangster not only wanted money, but also people.
"That won't work." The gangster threw the package to the ground and walked a few steps forward. He stood in front of the carriage with his hands folded and looked down at her. He leaned against the carriage for a long time and suddenly grinned and squinted.
Staring at her narrowly, "You little lady has a sharp mouth and must be very beautiful. Why don't you come with me? I promise to make you drunk every day." After saying that, Yang Jinxi stretched out her hand. Yang Jinxi thought to herself,
This time I will be buried here.
"Go to hell! -" Lu Yun, who had been hiding behind the door, suddenly rushed out of the carriage with a wooden hairpin in his hand, shouting, "You are not allowed to touch our lady -"
The gangster was obviously shocked. He stood there and felt a stinging pain in his right shoulder. Blood immediately flowed down his arm. When he saw the blood-stained hairpin in her hand, he was shocked to realize that he had been stabbed by a weak woman. At that moment
Furious, he threw Lu Yun to the ground with a backhand.
"How dare you hurt me, you ignorant woman!" As the saying goes, anyone who beats a woman must be a villain, so naturally this gangster cannot be a gentleman. He knelt down and lifted Lu Yun up, his thick eyebrows raised, his nostrils slightly flared,
Obviously very angry, he raised his hand and slapped her, sparing no effort. The left side of Lu Yun's face instantly became red and swollen.
"Be merciful -" Seeing his raised hand again, Yang Jinxi rushed forward and begged.
When the gangster saw her rushing out, he stopped raising his hand, threw away the maid in his hand, and said with a smile: "Young lady, you've figured it out and are willing to go back with me?"
She turned around distressedly and saw Lu Yun lying on the ground. Half of her face was swollen to the point where her eyes could not be seen, and her brows were furrowed tightly. Although this girl was timid by nature, she was also loyal to protect her master. If she was slapped again, she would be afraid of death.
Even his life is gone.
"No, this girl is mine, so naturally I can't see her die for me," Yang Jinxi raised her head and looked straight at him, her eyes calm, and she said with a hint of stubbornness, "But I will never fight with the bandits.
If you want to kidnap me as a concubine, why don't you kill me and let me have a good time?"
Hearing this, the gangster's face suddenly changed, with an undisguised look of sternness on his brows. He gritted his teeth, took out the dagger from his waist, and roared: "If you don't drink a toast, you'll be fined! Then you can die!"
When Yang Jinxi saw the flash of the sword, she closed her eyes tightly. Many things that had happened since she took over the Yang Mansion came to mind. She had been thinking about the Yang Mansion all day long, so it was her destiny to be buried here, but she still
It's a pity that I haven't trained anyone to accept it.
A soft sigh slipped from her lips, but no unexpected pain hit her at all.
"Who? Get out of here!——"
The gangster's furious voice came, and Yang Jinxi opened her eyes suddenly, and saw him holding a hidden weapon, looking around with blood stains on his face, and then a man riding a horse slowly walked out of the trees nearby, blocking her
In front of him, Yang Jinxi relied on years of intuition and felt that this person was not an easy master to mess with.
This was an extremely young man with a bronze complexion and slightly curly hair hanging around his ears. He was wearing a crow satin round-collar robe. You could see that he was very tall and straight while riding on the horse. He glanced sideways at the people on the carriage.
Yang Jinxi's eyes were as dark as night, filled with deep and shallow coldness, but the corners of her mouth were curled up with a bit of careless sarcasm. Then she turned around and looked at the person in front of her coldly: "You should be the one who deserves to bully a weak woman."
"Mind your own business!" the gangster spat, and raised the dagger viciously, "If you don't leave, I will kill you too!"
"Heh," the man chuckled and said contemptuously, "You can try to see if you can hurt me at all."
Seeing how confident he was, the gangster was so angry that he roared loudly and rushed toward them regardless.
Yang Jinxi saw the man scream, and the knife fell to the ground with a twist of his wrist. He screamed again, his legs softened, and he fell directly to the ground. He even started begging for mercy without any hesitation. Yang Jinxi's pupils widened, and for a moment, he couldn't help but scream.
Looking at the situation in front of him, he didn't see the man in front of him showing off his skills. Could this be the legendary hidden weapon?
"Ouch——" The gangster fell to the ground, covering his legs and hands and screaming, "My hero, please spare my life, my hero, please spare your life..."
"Get out of here, or I'm not sure I'll kill you," the man said calmly.
The 18-foot-tall man ran away in a panic after hearing this. He didn't forget to pick up her package when he ran away. His limping back was really funny.
The heart in her throat was finally relieved at this moment. Yang Jinxi couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled. This small gesture was noticed by the person in front of her. He said without looking back: "I almost lost my life, but I still have the mood to laugh at others."
?”
Yang Jinxi was shocked. This person's back was clearly facing her and he didn't even turn to look at her. How could he see her smiling?
"Thank you very much for saving your life, Master. I just want to ask you something, is it convenient?" Seeing him tilt his head slightly, revealing his extremely deep outline, Yang Jinxi said with certainty, "Young Master has been watching for a long time, why now?
Just take action?" Now she recalled the sound of horse hooves she heard before, it should be him.
The young man didn't turn around and asked with a smile: "We don't know each other, why should we save him?"
Yesterday, I received a message from Aldona, saying that the imperial convoy had entered Kyoto, and asked him to follow it as soon as possible to avoid being discovered and causing trouble. He had been delayed in Xiling for several days, and was rushing to meet Aldona
We met together, but we never expected to meet the famous Yang San Miss Yang Jinxi here. She was walking towards Kyoto, presumably to the Fourth Prince's Mansion.
To be honest, he shouldn't be meddling in such nosy matters today, but this Yang Jinxi really impressed him. Although he was not very old, he was calm and steady in dealing with things. In such a situation, he dared to stand up for his subordinates. For the first time, he felt that the power of the Great Jin Kingdom was
The women are comparable to the women in their grasslands.
The words on the tip of his tongue were choked in his throat. He was right. When we met by chance, why did we have to save him?
Seeing him holding the horse's rope, Yang Jinxi hurriedly stepped forward to block the horse and said loudly: "In this situation, please help me, sir. Otherwise, the robbers will call helpers later, and we and other female students will have to sit down.
Waiting to die."
Although it was a request, he said it in righteous words, as if he would be an unkind person if he didn't help her. Al Yun's moderately thick red lips were holding an unknown smile as he leaned over and said to her: "
Then you owe me a favor this time, Miss Yang."
"How do you know me?!" Yang Jinxi covered her mouth and exclaimed. Although this person seemed to be wearing the clothes of the Kingdom of Jin and spoke fluent Jin dialect, his facial features were as sharp as a knife.
Unlike people from the Great Jin Kingdom, how could he know his identity?
In her astonishment, Aryuna carried the person into the carriage. After everything was arranged properly, he turned over and jumped on the horse. He brushed his robe, took out a purse from his sleeve and threw it to her, and then said with a chuckle: "
Next, it’s up to Miss Yang herself. I believe that Miss Yang will reach Kyoto safely and drive——”
The horse's hooves hit the ground, and he walked away like this. Although Yang Jinxi was confused, she still got on the carriage. If the gangster was really unwilling to give up and called back for help, then they would really be doomed.
The carriage was running along the official road. "Hey," Yang Jinxi suddenly frowned, slapped her forehead in annoyance, and murmured softly, "I forgot to ask his name!"
