Chapter 280 Escape



Chapter 280 Escape Halfway

Xue Bin rode on the horse, looking sideways at the carriage beside him, with a gentle smile on his lips.

Xian'er finally willingly went far away with him. It was a wonderful feeling to travel with the beautiful woman you loved so much. If they could live together in the future, what a happy and sweet life it would be!

My aunt was reluctant to leave the flourishing capital, and was unwilling to live in the remote and impoverished border city. She chose to live alone in a courtyard near the Qin Palace. My cousin, Qin Wang Zhao Defang, said he would take good care of her.

Xue Bin was in a happy and satisfied mood. He looked back at the tall and majestic gate tower of Bianjing City and said silently in his heart: "Xian'er, although the place I take you to is far less prosperous and lively than the capital, but your cousin has a lot of money and is deeply infatuated with you, and he will definitely make you live a happy life."

Lin Xian'er in the carriage had no vision or yearning for a better life in the future. She bit her lower lip with silver teeth, and her eyes were full of resentment and hatred. Qiu He, the maid who followed her to serve, was so scared that she lowered her head silently and dared not look at her.

The carriage traveled on the flat official road for a day, getting farther and farther away from the capital.

Xue Bin, who was riding on a horse, leaned over to the person in the carriage and said softly, "Xian'er, you must be tired after sitting in the carriage for a whole day. There is a big Liuji Inn in the town ahead. The rooms are clean and the food is good. Let's stay in the inn early today and rest for a night, and get up early tomorrow to catch up."

Lin Xian'er sorted out her mood, opened the curtain of the carriage, and smiled sweetly and coquettishly: "From now on, it's all up to you, cousin." Her eyes were coquettish, and her words meant that she was willing to give herself to him in an ambiguous way.

Xue Bin's mind was disturbed! A phrase flashed through his mind: A beautiful woman's smile can move a city and a country!

"Okay! Xian'er, cousin will take good care of you." Xue Bin, who was infatuated with her, was so hot and his heart was beating fast, his bones were numb, and he couldn't say any sweet words.

The waiter of Liuji Inn came over enthusiastically, helped the four guards unload the cart and lead the horses, and humbly guided Xue Bin and Lin Xian'er into the lobby.

Xue Bin asked for three upper rooms, one for him, one for Lin Xian'er and the maid Qiu He, and one for the four guards. He also asked for two tables of good wine and food, and asked the waiter to send them to the room.

The waiter was attentive and thoughtful and first brought a few buckets of hot water for the guests to wash off the dust on the way.

Lin Xian'er looked at the red tub with disdain, "I don't know how many people have used it. I have a germophobia and won't use it to bathe."

The maid Qiu He helplessly carried the bedding she brought to make the bed, not daring to persuade the young lady who was still showing off outside.

Fortunately, there was not much dust in the carriage, and the weather was not hot enough to sweat. Lin Xian'er was served by Qiu He, and she quickly washed her hands and face with the washbasin and towel she brought.

Qiu He thought to herself that the journey was long and dusty. If the young lady refused to bathe, she would probably get smelly, and what's the point of germophobia!

Lin Xian'er forced a smile, and perfunctorily accompanied her cousin Xue Bin to eat a few bites of food, and then went back to her room to rest on the pretext of being tired.

The maid Qiu He brought up the blood bird's nest porridge cooked in the guest inn's kitchen. This was the health-preserving meal that Lin Xian'er and her daughter had to eat every night.

"Miss, it's just warm enough, please eat it quickly!" Qiu He gently placed the small bowl of blood bird's nest porridge on the table.

Lin Xian'er picked up the silver spoon and ate a few mouthfuls gracefully, but suddenly she lost her appetite. She said to Qiu He, who was sleeping on the floor with the bedding from the inn, "Qiu He, I have no appetite and can't eat. You can eat the remaining half bowl of blood bird's nest porridge!"

Qiu He was flattered and distressed, and advised her a few words, "Miss, the journey will be long and bumpy in the future. You must eat more and take good care of your body!"

Lin Xian'er sighed, got up and walked to the bed, "I really can't eat today. I'm sleepy. I'm going to sleep first."

Qiu He helped Lin Xian'er lie down on the bed and covered her with a thin quilt. Then she went back to the table and ate the remaining half bowl of blood bird's nest porridge carefully. After putting

away the bowls and spoons, Qiu He, who was lying on the quilt, felt sleepy and wondered why she was so sleepy after sitting in the carriage for most of the day? He collapsed on the floor and fell into a deep sleep. ………

: "Master Xue! It's bad, Miss Lin is missing!" Xue Bin, who was sleeping soundly in a spring dream, was awakened by a series of rapid knocks on the door. Hearing the anxious shouts of the maid Qiu He, he jumped off the bed.

"What happened? Why did Xian'er disappear?" Xue Bin opened the door in a disheveled state and asked while walking quickly to the next room.

The maid Qiu He cried and ran behind him, reporting, "Last night, after I waited on the young lady to sleep, I suddenly fell asleep. After dawn, when I opened my eyes, the young lady was gone from the bed..."

Xue Bin pushed open the door, looked at the empty bed and the closed window, walked into the room, took a look, and walked out with a gloomy face.

Xue Bin was not a brainless person. On the contrary, as a spy leader lurking in the enemy country, he had a calm mind and was smart and sharp. However, he was caught up in the love affair of a man and a woman these days, so he didn't notice Lin Xian'er's abnormality and became alert.

"Get on the horse and chase Lin Xian'er back." Xue Bin suppressed the pain in his heart and gave orders calmly.

The guard led the horse over and reported with a wry smile, "Sir, we are missing a horse. The waiter of the inn said that Miss Lin took it away last night."

Xue Bin jumped on the horse and said, "Let's chase her along the road back to the capital!"...

Lin Xian'er deliberately drugged the maid Qiu He and quietly went downstairs to the backyard to ask the waiter for a good horse.

Taking advantage of the bright moonlight at night, Lin Xian'er led the warhorse to the official road, climbed on the horse's back, and rode back to the capital!

Lin Xian'er, who has always been delicate and beautiful, has learned to ride a horse, but she is not good at horsemanship. She dare not ride the horse fast and almost fell off the horse several times.

The fire of resentment filled her heart with fighting spirit. Lin Xian'er lay on the horse's back, hugged the horse's neck tightly, and urged the horse forward with her silver teeth.

When the sun was high in the sky, the tall walls of Bianjing City could finally be seen from afar. Lin Xian'er bit her lower lip and spat out words full of hatred: "Zhao, De, Fang! Luo, Li! I, Lin Xian'er, will make sure you die without a burial place!"

A burst of rapid horse hoof sounds came from behind. Lin Xian'er, who was shaking and had a stomachache, turned her head on the horse's back. Did they catch up so quickly?

Lin Xian'er sat up straight, raised the whip in her right hand angrily, and whipped the horse's butt hard. The warhorse raised its hooves and galloped away...

With a "thump", Lin Xian'er was thrown off the horse. The warhorse galloped for a distance before turning back to see why this stupid master fell off.

Xue Bin, who was riding a horse at full speed, shouted in surprise, "Xian'er!..."

Lin Xian'er was almost suffocated by the fall. Fortunately, when she fell off the horse, the speed of the horse was not very fast, and she happened to fall on the side of the road where the soil was softer.

The proud Lin Xian'er struggled to get up, but she didn't bother to brush off the dirt on her body to maintain her elegant image. She looked at Xue Bin who had come close and dismounted with a cold look, "Cousin, it's useless for you to catch up. I have never liked you, and I will not go with you!"
