Chapter 681 This is what you told me, everything is fine?
In order to shorten the time on the road, Sang Zhixia and her companions traveled light after leaving the royal city, spending most of the time on horseback.
The Golden Feather Guards sent by Jiang Yubai were stationed on the left and right sides to escort them from the rear.
Sang Zhixia rode in front, and Qi Lao followed closely beside him.
Among the little guys following behind him, in addition to Xu Mingyang and Sang Yanyou, there was also Xu Yanran in a light yellow riding suit, which was more than expected.
Xu Yanran asked to come along on her own initiative.
Aunt Xu was worried at first and didn't want to agree, but in the end Uncle Xu agreed to Xu Yanran's request despite the risk of having his wife pull his ears.
With Sang Zhixia leading the way and the Golden Feather Guards escorted by a hundred people, there is no need to worry about safety.
Xu Yanran has studied medicine for several years. She spends all day either in the medicine fields or in the clinic. She has indeed never gone out to gain experience.
Uncle Xu thought about what Mr. Hu had said, and finally, together with Aunt Xu, who was full of worry, he packed Xu Yanran's luggage and personally sent them to the city gate.
The galloping cavalry slowly stopped when they were still some distance away from the city gate.
Sang Zhixia was dressed in green riding clothes, with a slender and neat figure. From a distance, he looked like a tough green bamboo.
Sang Zhixia raised his hand to signal everyone behind him to stop temporarily, shook the reins with one hand and walked forward quickly. When he walked in front of Mr. Xue and others, he was the first to dismount sideways.
Sang Zhixia didn't recognize Ding Teng, who came with Mr. Xue, so she bowed to Mr. Xue earnestly and said, "Hello, sir."
"Oh, Mr. Sang is embarrassing me."
Mr. Xue quickly moved aside to avoid Sang Zhixia's greeting and said to her with a smile, "Master Sang, this is Lord Ding, the city governor of Chuzhou."
"Sir Ding, this is the wife of General Huqi. You may respectfully address her as Mrs. Sang."
Ding Teng wasn't quite sure why the General's wife wasn't addressed as Madam Xu Shao, but as Mrs. Sang. He was stunned for a moment, then immediately clasped his fists and nodded, "Ding Teng, I'm honored."
"Your Excellency is very kind."
Sang Zhixia folded the horsewhip and put it away. When she noticed Ling Chushi, her eyebrows twitched slightly.
Lingchu quickly stepped forward and said, "Boss, the young master and his men are temporarily staying in the government office in the city and are waiting for you."
Sang Zhixia's eyes flickered slightly, and she turned to look at Mr. Xue: "Sir, the people sent by the young prince are already here. I'll have to trouble you with how to make the arrangements from now on."
Mr. Xue stroked his beard and nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, I will arrange it."
"Then can the people I brought with me enter the city with me?"
"sure."
Mr. Xue leaned over and made a gesture of invitation, his eyes gentle, "Master Sang, please come in."
Sang Zhixia came all the way from the Lingnan Royal City, and he must have been very worried about Xu Yu's injury.
For this reason, when Ding Teng saw Sang Zhixia and his group coming on horseback, he quickly ordered the people around him to go into the city and remove people and objects that might be blocking the road, so as to avoid blocking the galloping horses and accidentally injuring the people.
But surprisingly, Sang Zhixia did not ride a horse when entering the city.
Song Liu followed closely behind Sang Zhixia, leading the horse, and Qi Lao's horse was given to Ling Chu to lead.
Diancui and Huashan followed closely all the way. Although they were dressed as inconspicuous maids, their movements when dismounting from the horse were powerful and agile, and it was obvious that they were both trained warriors.
As for the others, the panting horses were left outside the city. According to Mr. Xue's arrangement, they would go directly to the camp outside the city with the Golden Feather Guards.
Ding Teng was stunned when he saw this, and whispered, "Mr. Sang, it's still a long way to the city. How about I go find two cars now?"
"Don't bother."
Sang Zhixia smiled politely and said calmly, "It's not good to startle horses in a busy city. I don't want to wait here any longer. It won't take long to walk there."
Xu Mingyang and Sang Yanyou were both wearing black riding clothes embroidered with silver patterns. They followed Sang Zhixia on the left and right, like two little guardian angels, protecting Sang Zhixia and Xu Yanran who was holding the medicine box.
Everyone, big and small, had no objection to walking into the city. Even Xu Yanran, who looked young and delicate, had a determined look on her face.
Ding Teng quickly hid the surprise in his eyes and said with a smile, "I didn't think it through."
"Please follow me."
At first, the seriously injured Xu Yu temporarily lived in the city guard's mansion, and Ding Teng also planned to let Xu Yu stay there so that it would be convenient for him to visit him.
But after Xu Yu regained his consciousness, he moved out of the City Guard's Mansion and moved into an empty house not far from the City Guard's Mansion with his people.
Ding Teng walked in front to lead the way. Sang Zhixia's eyes swept calmly over the scenes he saw along the way. When he noticed a few familiar doorheads, he slowly lowered his eyes.
Xu Yu really couldn't get out, so Chen Jing'an, relying on his lighter injuries, went to the door first and waited.
Seeing the group approaching, Chen Jing'an first bowed respectfully to Elder Qi, then called Sang Zhixia "sister-in-law," and then exclaimed, "Oh, Sister Yanran is here too?"
Xu Yanran smiled sweetly and called out "Brother Chen" in a gentle voice.
Xu Mingyang and Sang Yanyou immediately called for help. Sang Zhixia glanced behind Chen Jingan and silently tightened the corners of his lips: "I..."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law."
Chen Jing'an saw what Sang Zhixia was about to say and laughed, "I just found out you guys were arriving a day early. You might be locked up in your room getting dressed. You'll be able to see me once you go in."
"Sister-in-law, come with me."
Sang Zhixia was able to remain calm at first, but when she was about to meet Xu Yu, she could not control her pounding heart.
Chen Jing'an took Sang Zhixia directly to the inner courtyard.
As Qi Lao followed, he said to the three little ones who were about to run after him, "Go with Master Ding and put down your things first. I'll go take a look."
If Xu Yu's injuries were truly horrific, at least they could turn around and give these little ones some comfort so that they wouldn't be frightened at first sight.
Xu Mingyang bit his lower lip, but after a brief silence, he nodded steadily: "Yes."
Ding Teng waited quietly on the side. Seeing that these young children were suppressing their anxiety and being polite to him, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: After all, they are the bloodline of the century-old Xu family.
Even if there are only a few children, standing out will make them different from others.
Ding Teng took the three little ones to the arranged accommodation, and even temporarily arranged a small courtyard at the innermost side for Xu Yanran.
On the other side, Sang Zhixia finally met Xu Yu.
Unlike the makeup that Chen Jing'an joked about, Xu Yu was still lying on the bed in the half-dead state that Chen Jing'an had seen him in before. He seemed to have no intention of cheering up at all, and he was holding a pillow under his chin pitifully.
Seeing Sang Zhixia, Xu Yu didn't get as excited as Chen Jing'an had imagined and pretended to be calm before getting out of bed. Instead, his face turned pale and he moved his lips, whispering, "Zhizhi, you're here."
Chen Jingan: “…”
If he remembered correctly, the military doctor changed the gauze when he came to change Xu Yu's dressing this morning.
It seems that Xu Yu’s wound has stopped bleeding?
Where did that bloody gauze come from?
Chen Jing'an looked at Sang Zhixia who had her back to him, and silently gave a thumbs up of disdain to Xu Yu, who seemed to have become much weaker in an instant.
Sang Zhixia looked at Xu Yu, whose face was pale and whose back and arms were wrapped in blood-soaked gauze, and her eyes silently turned red.
Sang Zhixia said in a hoarse voice: "Xu Yu, this is what you told me, everything is fine?"
