Chapter 542 How to Stop Everyone from Crossing the Bridge
Bai Yu'an remembered what Fuxing said: "If I want to marry you, it must be when you have no choice."
At this moment, he vaguely understood Fuxing's intention. In fact, from that time on, Fuxing had been helping the Bai family. The more she helped the Bai family, the fewer choices Bai Yu'an had...
The day has come when there is really no choice...
Bai Yu'an didn't dare to think further. He could only pray silently with Li Suining, hoping that Fuxing would return safely.
Things went smoothly and Fuxing soon came out of the entrance of the Flower Valley.
"That's great!" Xiao Jingwen and the guards couldn't help but cheer. They were obviously less afraid of Fuxing.
Bai Yu'an and Li Suining ran forward.
Xiaotuanzi went over and hugged Fuxing's thighs, "Sister Fuxing, you've worked hard."
"I'm fine." Fuxing pulled the corner of her mouth and answered weakly. Her lips were pale, one wrist was bandaged, and the other wrist was covered in almost black blood.
Bai Yu'an silently bandaged her other wrist. She wanted to open her mouth to say something several times, but her throat seemed to be blocked and she couldn't say anything.
Soon, Yuan Xiaonian and his men passed through the Flower Valley and were about to reach the border of East Chu.
The convoy stopped and began to make final preparations.
Fuxing took off her pink dress and put on a black robe again, with a black hood covering her beautiful face.
Yuan Xiaonian and Li Suining changed into the clothes of a prince and a princess, while Bai Yu'an also changed into a black robe and became the new young imperial teacher.
Yuan Xiaonian and Li Suining got on the largest carriage, while Bai Yu'an and Fuxing got on a slightly smaller one.
After everyone was ready, the convoy moved forward again.
It was getting dark as they got closer and closer to Dongchu. Li Suining sat opposite Yuan Xiaonian and felt increasingly uneasy for some reason.
"Are the stars out?" She lifted the curtain and looked out.
Yuan Xiaonian had been keeping his eyes closed, but he slowly opened them upon hearing this. "Are you anxious? They should be here soon."
Li Suining saw that the stars in the sky did not appear, but she felt that something was going to happen.
She was getting a little impatient, "Second Prince, can you please stop for a moment? I...I want to go to the toilet."
"Is it urgent?" Yuan Xiaonian thought for a moment. He didn't know how long it would take to get to the palace after entering Dongchu, so he decided not to wait. "Okay, let's stop for a while."
He drew aside the curtain and told everyone to stop.
Li Suining got off the carriage.
Yuan Xiaonian called Fuxing over and asked Fuxing to accompany Xiaotuanzi.
Li Suining walked towards the woods nearby, looking up from time to time as he walked.
"What's wrong?" Fuxing quickly realized something, "Did you find anything?"
Li Suining shook her head. "Sister Fuxing, I always feel uneasy, as if...something is going to happen."
Fuxing frowned and thought carefully. They were about to enter Dongchu. Logically speaking, Shangguan Jinglan would not be able to cause any more trouble in such a short time.
But when she looked at the little girl, she couldn't help but feel worried.
"Let's do this." Fuxing made a decision quickly. They could go to Dongchu later, but they must be safe.
She said something in Li Suining's ear, and the little girl nodded immediately.
The two of them lingered in the woods for a while, and Fuxing carried Li Suining back. She did not go to the big carriage, but put Li Suining into the small carriage.
After getting into the carriage, Li Suining immediately said to Bai Yu'an, "Second brother, we need to delay for a while. I want to wait until the stars come out before we set off."
"Okay!" Bai Yu'an understood instantly.
At this time, Yuan Xiaonian's voice was heard outside, "What's wrong? Why was Li Suining sent to this carriage?"
Li Suining heard this and immediately started to cry out, "It hurts, second brother, my stomach hurts so much."
"Second Prince, Xiao Suining has a stomachache. Let Second Young Master Bai check her out." Fuxing spoke immediately at the right time.
"Why do you suddenly feel sick?" Yuan Xiaonian couldn't help but worry. He lifted the curtain and looked inside. "What's going on?"
The little dumpling was still wailing.
It was already dark at this time, and the carriage was dimly lit, so I couldn't see anything clearly.
Bai Yu'an placed his fingers on Li Suining's wrist, looking thoughtful. "There's something wrong with her pulse. She might have caught a cold. Let me give her a massage, and we'll leave later."
"Okay!" Yuan Xiaonian agreed without thinking too much and left.
Li Suining immediately sat up straight and stuck out her tongue at Bai Yu'an.
Bai Yu'an shook his head helplessly, "You!"
However, he also believed in his sister's intuition. Although he didn't know what dangers there would be with only a short distance left, it would never be too cautious at this time.
Fuxing had been guarding outside the carriage. The moment Xingxing came out, she immediately alerted the people inside.
"Xiao Suining, the stars are out."
"I understand, Sister Fuxing." Li Suining immediately got out of the carriage.
Bai Yu'an also came out. He jumped off the carriage first and then carried the little girl down.
Little Dumpling kept looking up at the stars, and sure enough, she saw the bridge collapse and the entire convoy fell down.
"Bridge!" Li Suining said nervously, "The bridge will collapse!"
"Bridge?" Bai Yu'an quickly took out the map from the carriage and looked at it carefully. There was indeed a bridge before they entered Dongchu.
Someone tampered with the bridge.
Bai Yu'an was a little surprised and immediately whispered to confirm, "If the bridge collapses, won't everyone fall down?"
Li Suining nodded, "Yes, everyone fell down."
Bai Yu'an and Fuxing looked at each other, obviously realizing that something was wrong. Shangguan Jinglan wanted to harm the members of the escort team, and would not let the entire convoy die.
What's going on?
At this time, Yuan Xiaonian came over.
"How is it? Is Xiao Suining's stomach feeling better?" Yuan Xiaonian asked with concern.
Little Dumpling subconsciously looked at her second brother. She didn't know how to answer, nor did she know how to stop the convoy from crossing the bridge.
"Well, it should be almost healed." Bai Yu'an nodded.
"Then let's continue on our journey. It's getting late. The people from Dongchu are probably waiting for us." Yuan Xiaonian came over and picked up the little girl.
Little Tuanzi looked at Bai Yu'an and Fuxing for help.
Bai Yu'an and Fuxing nodded at the same time, telling the little guy not to worry.
Soon, the convoy continued to move forward. This time, Bai Yu'an did not ride in a carriage, but rode a horse.
He walked in front of the convoy and reached the bridge first.
He got off his horse, stood by the bridge, and looked at the bridge in front of him. In fact, at first glance, he couldn't see anything wrong with it.
He looked across the bridge again and saw the officials from Dongchu welcoming them.
