Chapter 134 You are not afraid, why are your legs shaking?
Seeing the hesitation in her eyes, Jiang Wan spoke at the right time, "Are you scared, Miss Hua?
If you are afraid, come down and we will think of another way."
"I'm not afraid!"
Hua Xiao was determined and denied loudly. How could she be afraid? She still had to complete the task assigned by the Sixth Prince.
Thinking of this, Hua Xiao grabbed the rope with both hands, kicked his feet slightly, and his body slid along the rope for a short distance.
However, before she reached the middle, she suddenly didn't know what to do. Looking down at the river below, she was so scared that her head started to feel dizzy.
"Flower girl, slide over here!"
Chen Lizheng was shouting loudly, but the sound was blown away by the wind and Hua Xiao could not hear it clearly.
She held on to the rope tightly, her heart in turmoil.
This...what should she do?
Hua Xiao's hands moved in small movements, like an ant, and his movements were terribly slow.
Ren Bang frowned. If everyone went this way, even if it was safe, it would be extremely time-consuming.
I guess I'll have to spend the whole day here.
Hua Xiao was still climbing slowly above the rope. She kept changing hands and her arms felt slightly numb.
No, she's going to fall if this continues!
Hua Xiao was so frightened that her pretty face turned pale, but luckily she was still rational at the moment and she changed direction very quickly.
At this moment, she had not reached the middle of the rope and was still two-thirds of the distance to the other side of the river. There was still time for her to go back.
So everyone saw Hua Xiao changing place and slowly grinding back.
Everyone: ...
"Li Zheng, look at this situation, how can we get through it?"
Ren Bang sighed. Hua Xiao was different from the others. She had been sitting in the carriage, while the people behind him were all exhausted.
Of course, the Song family is excluded.
Chen Lizheng spread his hands, not wanting to offend Ren Bang, so he could only say to him directly:
"Sir, it's not that I'm unkind, but someone has told us not to let exiles like you go too easily."
He deliberately said this loudly, both to tell Ren Bang and the others and to tell the exiles.
This move was somewhat heartbreaking for Song Jiuyuan and Jiang Wan, because everyone, including the officials, might blame them in their hearts.
"I told you, Jiang Wan and the others must have offended someone!"
Madam Song was so brave that she actually dared to speak so directly. The others, for they were afraid of Jiang Wan, hung their heads and said nothing.
But Jiang Wan knew that everyone was probably blaming them in their hearts.
"What are you talking about? Did they mention my name?"
Song Jiuli immediately refuted loudly, then looked at Chen Lizheng and said confidently:
"Li Zheng, why don't you tell everyone if our family has offended anyone?"
She just didn't believe that Chen Lizheng could say that they had offended the Sixth Prince!
Chen Lizheng: ...
Can he say that he doesn't know either?
The county magistrate only hinted at it. Could he be told this openly?
Obviously not!
"You can't tell?"
Song Jiuli raised her chin slightly with pride, and for a moment she even had the aura of the former eldest lady of the Zhan Palace in Kyoto.
She snorted coldly and glared at Madam Song Er. "If you can't tell, then don't talk nonsense. Maybe you have offended someone yourself."
"Your family loves to offend people the most."
Madam Song muttered something, but didn't dare to speak loudly. After all, she was also afraid of Jiang Wan's fist.
"evidence?"
Jiang Wan narrowed her eyes, and her look was a little scary, which frightened Madam Song so much that she shrank her neck and dared not say anything.
At this time, Hua Xiao, who had been hesitating, finally came down from the rope with weak legs.
Wen Ruyu had no choice but to step forward and hold the man back, "Why are you trying to show off when I told you not to?"
At this moment, Wen Ruyu, who had previously felt a little disgusted with Hua Xiao, rarely felt a trace of pity for Hua Xiao.
Hua Xiao's face turned pale, "Actually... it's not that scary, I just thought that if I passed by, I wouldn't be able to tell you how I felt.
So I came back halfway through my trip, so it would be convenient to share my experience with you guys, right?"
This man was talking big, and his purpose was naturally to let Jiang Wan and his family slip away as well.
Everyone: ...
If it weren't for your pale face and trembling legs, we would have believed it.
"You're not afraid, why are your legs shaking?"
Jiang Wan smiled, and her words exposed Hua Xiao's disguise, which made Hua Xiao a little annoyed.
"I... am not shaking."
"Miss Hua, you should look at your face in the mirror. It's as white as a ghost."
Song Jiuli's words made Hua Xiao even more embarrassed. She could only say stubbornly:
"Anyway, I've tried it for you. The rope is pretty tight and safe."
After speaking, Hua Xiao didn't say anything more. He climbed onto the carriage quickly, looking a little embarrassed.
Wen Ruyu said nothing and got into the carriage.
Everyone in the crowd could only whisper, "Look at her, she's so scared, and yet she still says it's not difficult."
"She wouldn't hurt us on purpose, would she?"
"Come to think of it, she also seems to have had some issues with the Song family."
"Shh, keep your voice down. Don't let that tigress hear you."
“…”
The atmosphere was a little cold for a moment, and Ren Bang grabbed a handful of his hair.
Chen Lizheng curled his lips slightly. It seemed that the task assigned to him by the county magistrate was about to be completed.
Jiang Wan rubbed her fingertips unconsciously. How should she resolve this situation?
The other party made it clear that they were unwilling to provide any help because of their identities.
Just when everyone was worried, the sound of horse hooves was heard, and then everyone saw some familiar clothes.
This is the kind of clothing that only people in the palace can wear.
Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan looked at each other tacitly. The person who could solve the problem had arrived.
Everyone looked over there and saw the horses stopped in front of them with a carriage in the middle.
Soon the curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing a eunuch who looked familiar to Song Jiuyuan.
Come on.
Although he is not the most trusted eunuch around the current emperor, he is still a prominent figure.
"Princess Zhan, accept the order!"
Lai Xi got off the carriage holding the imperial edict, and his attitude towards Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan softened a lot.
Although she was not used to it, Jiang Wan still knelt down like everyone else. However, Song Jiuyuan sat there as still as a mountain.
"My body is not very suitable for kneeling."
"We believe that the emperor can understand."
Lai Xi smiled at Song Jiuyuan. Although he was just restoring their names, Lai Xi was a smart man.
Knowing that no one can predict what will happen in the future, he never reveals his emotions easily.
With a loud bang, even Hua Xiao in the carriage was pulled down by Wen Ruyu and made to kneel on the ground.
Hua Xiao was very unhappy. How could she, a modern person, kneel down so easily? Damn the ancient feudal system.
When she becomes the queen, she will definitely change it.
"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims:
Princess Song Jiang of Prince Zhan was smart and kind. She helped me solve the problem of smallpox, which made me very happy. I pardoned the nine clans of Song Jiuyuan and restored his title.
In addition, the war king Song Jiuyuan was resourceful and resourceful, so he was granted Jiuzhou as a fiefdom and given a number of rewards. "
Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan: ...
The two of them complained in their hearts speechlessly, the dog emperor was worthy of being a dog emperor, he didn't even give them the chance to return to Beijing.
"Thank you for your grace, Jiang Wan will accept your order!"
Jiang Wan stepped forward and respectfully took the imperial edict from Eunuch Xi's hand. Even though she complained, she also knew how to put on a show.
