Chapter 508 Unforgettable

A girl's blush is better than any confession...

Pah! She has a fever!

Jiang Longshou realized something and reached out to touch his forehead, then touched hers.

He said anxiously, "Your forehead is so hot."

He took off his outer robe and wanted to put it on Bei Jingchu.

They were halfway through taking off their clothes when they stopped, and neither of them could put on a single set of dry clothes; everything was soaking wet.

He tried to find a place to build a fire, but the thick smoke and flames gave away their position.

Fortunately, there is always light at the end of the tunnel. Jiang Longshou vaguely saw a few small houses in the distance.

Bei Jingchu could hardly walk anymore. He had a splitting headache and even breathing was painful. He wanted to just fall into a deep sleep.

Jiang Longshou picked her up and let her rest.

"Just sleep if you feel uncomfortable. Believe me, I will take you to where you should go even if I die."

After hearing the promise, Bei Jingchu, who was already exhausted, let herself fall asleep.

He trotted to the thatched hut carrying the person in his arms.

After knocking on the door, it didn't open. A soft female voice asked, "Who is it?"

Jiang Longshou replied, "Excuse me for disturbing you. My husband and I were out hunting today and encountered some robbers. We got separated from our servants and got soaked. My wife has caught a cold and has a high fever. I would like to ask you to be kind and take us in for one night."

"We will definitely repay you when we return."

There was silence for a while, and then the host refused, saying, "Sir, it is suspicious for a person to appear in the wilderness. I dare not let you in."

Jiang Longshou stared closely at the tightly closed door in front of him. This flimsy wooden door could be kicked open with just a casual kick.

If reasoning doesn't work, then we can only force our way in.

At this time, a beautiful woman carrying a bamboo basket came over and looked at them suspiciously. It seemed that they were from the same family.

This is easier, just kidnap her and let her in.

Unexpectedly, the woman looked at them and then said to the inside: "Sister, why don't you go in and welcome the guests!"

The door creaked open and the girl walked out, looking at the woman in surprise.

The woman pulled her in and explained, "Please forgive me, my sister is alone at home and is naturally scared, so she was a little cautious. It's not against you."

"Now that I'm back, I can open the door and welcome guests."

After saying this, he ordered the girl, "Sister, why don't you go get two sets of clean clothes?"

The girl was a little confused and followed the instructions. She then took out a set of clean coarse cloth clothes and said to the woman with some embarrassment, "Sister, we don't have men's clothes."

The woman smiled at Jiang Longshou shyly: "My dear, please wrap yourself up with a quilt or something. I will take your clothes outside to air them out. They will be dry overnight."

As he said this, he reached out to untie his belt.

Jiang Longshou was so frightened that he stepped back repeatedly, covering his clothes, "No, no, no, thank you, I can do it myself."

The woman was stunned for a moment, then smiled helplessly.

"Okay, the clothesline is right outside."

After he finished speaking, he asked, "Then, are you going to change this girl's clothes or should I do it?"

Jiang Longshou looked a little eager to do something, but he didn't dare to do it. He said regretfully, "Thank you, Madam Lao."

He pulled out the gold hairpin on Bei Jingchu's hair, broke off a piece of gold without any pattern on it, and put it in the woman's hand.

"We also need hot water, and if we have wine, we'll need it too. Thank you for bothering us."

The woman's mouth twitched at the way she pulled out the hairpin with such skill, she glanced at the sleeping woman and replied in a greedy manner, "No problem, no problem."

She stripped off Bei Jingchu's wet clothes, saw the bloody wound on her shoulder, hissed slightly, and then went out to boil water and prepare wine.

When the younger sister finally found a place to talk, she came over and asked in confusion, "Sister, those two people are obviously being hunted down. We helped them, but ended up getting burned. What should we do?"

The woman added some firewood to the stove and whispered, "That's... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

The girl opened her eyes wide, looking shocked.

The woman continued to explain, "I have seen her before, a long time ago. At that time, she had just conquered Ningzhou and returned to the court. The people lined the streets to welcome her."

"I was just squeezed in the crowd and watched her. Such a small child could have freed us from the brothel."

"I will never forget her face in my life..."

Before that, she thought her life would just be like this, being sold to a kiln and letting a man with a different appearance vent his lust inside her.
