Chapter 420 Recalling Shengjing

"Be careful." Lianxin and Luokui couldn't keep their composure and subconsciously went to help Xiao Jiuyue.

Dong Gui jumped down the carriage road and said, "Miss, the snow is falling heavily. The gullies on the road are deep. The wheels of the cart are stuck in them. It's okay. It will be fine in a while."

"Well, be careful." Xiao Jiuyue lifted the curtain and took a look. There was water on the road, and with the carriage passing by, the ditch on the road was up to the calf. No wonder the carriage was shaking and got stuck.

"Come, let's help." Chu Ang and Jin Wu, two men, came over immediately and said, "Miss, please don't get off the carriage. It's all ice water down there."

"Wait a minute, something is wrong." Dong Gui, who was standing aside, suddenly spoke. Jin Wu and Chu Ang, who were trying hard to pull the wheel, immediately looked at Dong Gui and looked around warily.

"There are people." Chu Ang immediately put down the wheel and ran to the side of the horse. He drew his sword and held it in his hand. They were going to Lingnan to deliver the goods. Now that they had more people, it was much safer. When she first followed He Changqing and the others, she encountered too many dangers on the road.

Men in black jumped out from all directions. Hua Qing and Dong Gui already had experience, so they stayed near the carriage. Hua Qing used poison, while Dong Gui was responsible for finishing off the enemy!

Jin Wu was responsible for guarding the carriage to see if there were any fish that slipped through the net!

"Miss, where did these killers come from?" Luo Kui wanted to rush out, but was stopped by Xiao Jiuyue: "Don't worry, they are fine!"

Whether it is Jin Wu, Hua Qing or Dong Gui, they are all very experienced. Ordinary killers pose no threat to them at all.

'call out'

The arrow hit the carriage. Xiao Jiuyue and Luo Kui dodged. Dong Gui's eyes flashed, and he looked at Jin Wu, and immediately they each guarded one side.

The black-clad man's target was clear, and that was Xiao Jiuyue in the carriage. The sound of swords and knives was heard outside. Luo Kui was very excited and wanted to rush forward with a sword. Lian Xin pulled Xiao Jiuyue and looked around with a pair of vigilant eyes at all times.

"The archers on the mountain must be eliminated!" Dong Gui stared at the archers on the mountain. She raised her hand and sent a signal. Hua Qing looked at her in confusion: "Are you looking for help?"

The sound of horses riding came, and Dong Gui immediately said, "Luo Kui, drive the carriage immediately and take the young lady away first!"

Donggui felt that it was not good. If these men in black really came to help again, the young lady would be in danger!

"I'll do it." Luo Kui came out directly. An arrow flew past her eyes, scaring her so much that her face turned pale. She pulled the reins and swung the whip. Only then did she remember that the wheel was stuck!

"Miss, go ahead on horseback." Hua Qing looked at the group of people on horseback and immediately said, "You go ahead and we'll hold them back."

"No need, Jin Wen and his men should be here soon." Xiao Jiuyue suffered a loss last time, and Jin Wen and his men followed him secretly. Soon, the archers on the top of the mountain were beaten. When a dozen men in black saw Xiao Jiuyue coming out, they attacked even faster.

Luo Kui also went out to help, sword in hand. Lian Xin stayed by Xiao Jiuyue's side, worry in her eyes. She asked, "Miss, who are these people?"

"Who knows!" Xiao Jiuyue stood on the carriage. She pulled Lianxin and jumped onto the dry grass by the roadside. Heavy snow was falling from the sky. When Jin Wu kicked a man in black towards her, Xiao Jiuyue raised her foot and stepped on him. Her hand turned into a knife and chopped the man in black's hand, and she directly snatched the sword from his hand.

Xiao Jiuyue's wrist turned, and the sword in her hand rotated in her palm. Finally, the tip of the sword turned over and stabbed directly into the chest of the man in black!

Lianxin was stunned.

Another man in black came towards her. Jin Wen stabbed him in the back with a sword, and Xiao Jiuyue stabbed him in the chest with the sword in his hand. An arrow shot into the man in black's neck.

It was snowing heavily. At the moment when the man in black fell down, Xiao Jiuyue glanced sideways and looked at the man who shot the arrow. Her pupils shrank slightly.

"careful."

The horse's hooves neighed as it galloped towards her. The man on the horse was wearing a dark-colored robe, and his cloak was covered with heavy snow that had fallen and had not yet melted.

The inky figure flew up and kicked the man in black in front of Xiao Jiuyue, and finally returned to the carriage neatly. The series of movements was neat and handsome.

"Thank you, Your Highness the Third Prince, for saving my life!" Xiao Jiuyue raised her eyes and smiled softly. The moment she saw Jun Lie, she was extremely shocked. Shouldn't this person be from Shengjing?

"Guo Sheng, take care of all these people," Jun Lie ordered. He dismounted and said, "I'm about to join the army in the battle of Jincheng. I have two hours. Do you want to find a place to talk?"

"You want to join the army to fight in Jincheng?" Xiao Jiuyue was shocked for a moment, then said, "You must return to the Xiao family. I'll treat you to hot pot."

The steaming hot pot is very warming to the body.

"No, it's not appropriate for me to appear in front of Old Madam Xiao now." Jun Lie refused. He had deliberately taken a detour here just to see Xiao Jiuyue and listen to her talk.

"Then let's go to the farm." Xiao Jiuyue said, "I bought a farm nearby. Usually, no one goes there except me."

"Let's go." Jun Lie responded and helped Xiao Jiuyue get into the carriage.

The carriage had been carried out by Jun Lie's men. In the carriage, there were only Xiao Jiuyue and Jun Lie. Lian Xin and Luo Kui followed decisively.

"You came to Lancang County specially. Is there any progress in overturning the Xiao family's case?" Xiao Jiuyue looked at him and asked.

"Nanyue and Yongzhao are fighting. The Xiao family's case may have to be delayed until next year!" Jun Lie explained, "The cotton armor you sent to Shengjing earlier is very good. Father is very happy. There is also a plan to divert the flow of water. Father has ordered that Lord Xiao and his entire family be recalled to Shengjing!"

Whether it is cotton armor or water diversion and control, once successful, it will be a great achievement!

"Really!" Xiao Jiuyue stood up excitedly, forgetting that she was in a carriage. Her head hit the roof of the carriage, and her facial features wrinkled in pain.

"careful."

Jun Lie reached out and gently stroked Xiao Jiuyue's hair, saying, "The news I just received couldn't be more true! You should be able to hear from me in half a month."

"Third Prince, this is really good news!" Xiao Jiuyue was happy. From the confirmation that the verdict could be overturned to the Xiao family's return to Shengjing, she believed that everything was moving in a good direction!

"Hou Jian has been caught, and he has changed his confession. Now as long as it is confirmed that he has nothing to do with the Xiao family, the Xiao family official will be reinstated!" When Jun Lie got the news, the first thing he wanted to do was find Xiao Jiuyue and tell her the good news in person!

"My father definitely wouldn't embezzle the disaster relief funds!" Xiao Jiuyue was in a good mood, silently calculating the date and said, "According to the date, they will return to Shengjing from Lingnan. The earliest they can do so is after the Chinese New Year."
