Putting aside how Li Of Gojoseon and the Song family were going to make their way to the capital, Madam Lin was frightened. She was lying in the relay station, drinking bowl after bowl of medicine.
When she heard that Li Of Gojoseon wasn't going to help, she smashed her bowl and coughed angrily, "He still has military power. How could he be frightened by a few petty thieves?"
The servant said, "It's said that Prince Li only brought a dozen or so household soldiers with him. He also had to protect the old madam on her way to the capital, so he didn't help."
"Isn't he very powerful? He doesn't even care about his fiancée. What a good-for-nothing."
Madam Lin was angry. She knew very well what kind of person her eldest sister was. If something happened to her son, wouldn't she cause chaos in the Lin family?
"Madam, don't be too anxious. These words …" Madam Lin was really anxious. If these words reached Li Of Gojoseon's ears, wouldn't the marriage be called off?
Her family's young miss wasn't easy to worry about. If this matter was ruined, she was afraid that no one would want her after her reputation was tarnished.
Madam Lin was too anxious. The servant's words woke her up.
She said, "No matter what, we still have to rely on him. Go tell someone to tell him that we still need his help."
The servant left to pass on the message. Madam Lin was so angry that her heart ached. She could only ask Prince Li, who had military power, for this matter. Otherwise, it would be useless even if she went back and told her husband.
As for Li Of Gojoseon and Long Heng, they weren't worried at all. Song Jiaoyue shook his head and said with a smile, "I really want to know how those people treat Ji Zhongling."
"An eye for an eye." Long Heng only said four words. Song Jiaoyue said, "I'm afraid it's not that simple."
"She's a woman."
Long Heng didn't say anything else, but he had already made it clear. If he dared to make a move against a woman, the result would be tragic.
Just then, the small carriage carrying Madame Xiu stopped to the side.
He asked the person beside him curiously, "What's going on?" Why did the car suddenly stop? Did something happen?
The servant, Shu 'er, hurriedly went to ask around. In the end, he heard the maidservant, Xiao Shi, poke her head out and say anxiously, "Go tell the Prince that there's nothing wrong. It's just that Madame Xiu has a stomachache and wants to drink some warm water."
"Do we need to find a doctor to check on the cause?" Shu 'er asked curiously.
"Madam said that this is a matter of habit, because every first and fifteenth day of the lunar month are vegetarian. Today is an exception, so it's like this.
As long as you drink some hot water, you'll be fine soon. "Xiao Shi also felt strange when she knew about her illness. She didn't have it before!
But thinking that her mistress was so beautiful, it was inevitable that she would be a little spoiled, just like now.
Shu 'er went back to report to his master. Long Heng frowned.
How could he have known that she had this problem? Thus, he said, "Have someone boil water on the spot. Hurry up."
It didn't take long for the water to boil.
Long Heng couldn't leave the old madame's carriage to watch over her. Otherwise, he would definitely be gossiped about.
When people said that a man was dissolute and loved beauty, it was different when it came to a woman.
Those words would definitely be very unpleasant.
But it just so happened that the Song family was behind them, so they asked Song Jiaoyue to take care of them.
Song Jiaoyue was naturally willing. Her own mother was still waiting to eat her side dishes.
In fact, she didn't need to take care of them. The water was quickly boiled. After drinking it, she slowly followed the Song family's procession. When they reached the capital, someone from the prince's estate would come to pick her up.
Song Jiaoyue leisurely followed the procession. There were more women in the Song family, so they walked more slowly.
There was no helping it. When there were more women, there would always be this and that!
See, one of the concubines was going to relieve herself.
It was very troublesome for a woman to relieve herself. She had to follow at least three people, and it would take a long time to find a way to relieve herself.
When they got on the carriage and were about to leave, they saw a group of horses passing by.
It should be the Shang Ji Group. The two groups of carriages gave way to each other and walked on the official road.
Who knew that when they passed by, a cloud of smoke rose up. Song Jiaoyue immediately felt that something was wrong. He covered his nose and said, "Everyone, be careful. It's smoke."
Song Jiaoyue knew that this was a trick of the Jianghu people. He thought that they had stopped recently, but who knew that they were preparing for a sudden attack.
There were about ten people in the caravan, and they were all experts.
But they were all sitting in the carriage. Otherwise, he would have seen through it.
The subordinates he brought out were also quite smart. They quickly protected the women.
But he didn't expect that those people didn't care about the women at all. They all rushed toward Song Jiaoyue.
They really wanted to kill him, but unfortunately, Song Jiaoyue's martial arts were not weak. They didn't succeed so easily.
In the carriage, Bai Xiangxiu was also very worried. She just drank some hot water and wanted to rest. Then, she smelled a strange fragrance.
It was strange. Who knew that the smell of Red Pearl would suddenly become stronger.
She took a deep breath and felt that after smelling it for a long time, the smell of Red Pearl actually relieved her of the dizziness.
She looked at Xiao Shi again. She fell to the ground and didn't move. She reached out to touch her and found that she only fainted.
What the hell happened?
She remembered that when she was in a daze, she heard the supporting male shouted something about knockout powder. Did someone drug them?
But she seemed to be fine. She touched her nose. Could it be that Red Pearl can also cure knockout powder?
She quietly opened the curtain and saw that the supporting male was fighting while leading those people into the depths of the forest.
He was afraid that these people would hurt Old Song and the others. But what about him?
He must have smelled the knockout powder. Otherwise, why would he be in such a sorry state when he was running?
She remembered that there was a section like this in the novel. The supporting male had offended an evil sect in the jianghu before, so he provoked this kind of vendetta.
Their goal was only to kill him, but because the supporting male's martial arts were good, he managed to avoid a disaster. However, it seemed that he was saved by the female lead who was following the villain. At that time, he didn't know who she was and only recognized her when he saw her in the prince's mansion.
Since then, he was stuck in the mud and was unable to extricate himself.
This plot was really good. She definitely couldn't let the female lead take the initiative.
In any case, when the time came, the supporting male would take care of everyone. She just needed to pick him up.
Moreover, looking at him like that really made people worried!
Bai Xiangxiu saw that the people outside had all fallen. One of them didn't fall and seemed to have gone to report.
She tore off her skirt and jumped off the carriage, running into the mountains.
She used to be a wild person and often ran around the mountains looking for all kinds of wild flowers and weeds. She was very familiar with the situation in the mountains.
She was very good at avoiding those people who were fighting and following them. Although she couldn't run fast, the other party couldn't run fast if they wanted to kill her.
Looking from afar, the supporting male was indeed unable to hold on. His eyes were already dazed.
His shoulder had been cut and half of his body was already dyed red.
Her heart palpitated. She saw that there were only two people left on the jianghu side. One of them was attacking him while the other was shooting hidden weapons from afar.
Those shining hidden weapons flew towards Song Jiaoyue without any hesitation. This time, it would be hard to escape.
