Chapter 238 Found
Su Qianqian was awakened by a fragrance. She sniffed and opened her eyes, then she remembered that she was still trapped in the cave. However, she was so heartless that she slept so soundly!
Turning his head to look in the direction where the fragrance came from, he saw Qin Hanzhang staring intently at the small pot on the fire, carefully stirring it with a wooden spoon.
"My Lord, why are you up so early? You don't have to go to court..." Su Qianqian muttered and sat up.
[You have to be able to sleep even if you don't attend court. Humph, your Zhougong little fists and Youmeng shadowless kicks almost sent the person you were sleeping with to death. Between saving his life or saving his dreams, the Marquis rationally chose the former. 】
The system gave an explanation.
[Nonsense!] My sleeping posture is the best, my mother always praises me...】Su Qianqian retorted unconvinced.
[All normal mothers in the world have a common problem: they think their babies are the best. Even if you sleep like a toad spirit, she will still praise your sleeping posture for being unique! 】
The system sneered.
Qin Hanzhang turned around at this time, looking very energetic:
"I'm used to it. I'll wake up naturally at that time. I just made some pheasant porridge. It's almost time now. Let's get up and have breakfast."
It turned out to be the aroma of chicken porridge!
Su Qianqian's appetite was whetted by the aroma. She quickly got up and washed up, then took a bowl of porridge and handed it to Qin Hanzhang: "Be careful not to get burned."
Qin Hanzhang nodded and took it.
Su Qianqian served herself another bowl, scooped a spoonful, blew it cool and put it into her mouth, she couldn't help but stare at Qin Hanzhang with wide eyes.
Qin Hanzhang didn't drink the porridge either. He quietly observed Su Qianqian. When he saw her staring, she quickly took a bite and asked in confusion:
"Is it not to your taste? I am not picky about food, so I think it is fine..."
Su Qianqian didn't say anything. She ate several mouthfuls in a row before she exhaled, "It's not that it doesn't suit my taste, it's too suit my taste! Your cooking skills are so good!"
Qin Hanzhang breathed a sigh of relief and was about to continue eating his porridge, but suddenly he looked up alertly, put the bowl down, made a gesture to Su Qianqian to keep quiet, pulled out his dagger, walked to the entrance of the cave, and looked outside.
Su Qianqian put down the bowl and drew out the dagger. If Lu Jing found out that they had escaped and came back again, he would kill them.
Footsteps were gradually heard outside, someone was approaching. Su Qianqian stood up and slowly walked to the other side of the cave entrance, ready to fight side by side with Qin Hanzhang, or at least not to hold him back.
"There are people here! My Lord, are you in there?"
A surprised and slightly trembling voice came from outside.
Qin Hanzhang's eyes flashed slightly, and he turned to look at Su Qianqian. There were very complicated emotions in his eyes, as if he didn't want to be found.
"Yes, who is outside?" Su Qianqian saw that Qin Hanzhang had put away the dagger and was obviously a trustworthy person, so she asked.
"Your subordinate Qin Jiu, Lord Marquis, are you okay? Are you injured? Your subordinate is here to take you back to the camp!"
The voices outside were worried and anxious.
"I'm fine... just wait a moment."
Qin Hanzhang walked towards Su Qianqian, put away her dagger, pulled her back to where they were eating porridge, picked up the bowl and handed it to her:
"Eat first, don't be in a hurry."
Su Qianqian took the bowl of porridge, and saw Qin Hanzhang also picked up the bowl and ate the porridge leisurely.
He ate all the meat porridge in the pot, cleaned it, put out the fire, spread the felt carpet on the straw mat, and laid out the rice and firewood. There was nothing else to do.
Qin Hanzhang stared at Su Qianqian for a moment before he said in a low voice, "We are going back."
Su Qianqian nodded and followed Qin Hanzhang to the cave entrance. The two turned back at the same time. Although they had only lived there for a dozen hours, they felt that the short time was peaceful and warm. If they could live like this for the rest of their lives, there would be nothing wrong with that...
The moment he walked out of the cave, Qin Hanzhang regained his former dignity and composure.
Outside the cave at this time, not only his subordinates, Qin Hanjin and Qin Hanyue, but also Zhou Jinghuai and his brothers, and even Prince Ping had heard the news and rushed over, waiting quietly outside.
“Third brother!”
"Han Zhang!"
The Qin brothers and the Zhou brothers all ran towards Qin Hanzhang, only Prince Ping stared at Su Qianqian with a haggard face.
Qin Hanzhang briefly explained what had happened, but saw Prince Ping dismounted and walked towards Su Qianqian.
"Master Su, the hunting ground is dangerous. I thought you were afraid of death, but I didn't expect you to be so heroic. Do you know how many people you have caused trouble for?"
Prince Ping asked in a deep voice, his robes were covered with dust, and he had stubble on his chin and cheeks, looking haggard and shabby.
Su Qianqian was about to reply when Qin Hanzhang grabbed her wrist and brought her behind him:
"No matter what my brother-in-law does, there is no need for Prince Ping to say more. She has never troubled anyone, and Prince Ping please don't cause trouble for yourself."
Prince Ping turned to look at Qin Hanzhang and said, "Your Majesty, you are so protective of me... I really admire you. I thought people in high positions would be cold and indifferent."
He bowed to Qin Hanzhang and said, "Your Majesty is injured, so I will take Master Su with me on the way back. As for my riding skills, you can rest assured."
Qin Hanjin and Qin Hanyue both rolled their eyes secretly.
"No need. I will naturally take the people I brought back. No need to trouble Prince Ping."
Qin Hanzhang pulled Su Qianqian and helped her onto the horse first, then he jumped up and sat behind her, holding her in his arms.
Su Qianqian turned her head to look at the wound on his shoulder with some concern. Qin Hanzhang lowered his eyes and shook his head at her, telling her not to worry, then rode away.
Prince Ping saw all of this, staring at Qin Hanzhang's back with a gloomy look. He licked his dry and cracked lips, then mounted his horse and chased after Qin Hanzhang.
Su Qianqian didn't expect that Qin Hanzhang not only took her out of the hunting ground, but also took her more than thirty miles away from the landslide site.
He was seriously injured on his shoulders and head, and was holding a person weighing about 90 kilograms. At first, he used light skills to step on the rolling stones. When Su Qianqian and the three sisters-in-law of the Du family returned to the camp and talked about it, they were all surprised and distressed.
"His Royal Highness was sent to the temporary palace overnight. His Majesty was furious and sent people to search the hunting grounds, but he did not find the escaped assassin.
Your second uncle, third uncle, and Han Jin and Han Yue quietly chased after you after you left, but they happened to see rocks rolling down and half of the mountain collapsed. ”
Mrs. Du caressed Su Qianqian's neck distressedly, where the black-clothed man's knife had cut her. Her eyes were filled with relief and cherishment for having regained what she had lost:
"You are so brave, kid. Why didn't you consult us before going into the hunting ground alone at night? If something really happens, how can I explain it to your grandmother and your sister?"
"Mother, I wasn't sure whether it was true or not at that time, so I made the decision on my own. I'm sorry for making you worry. It's my daughter-in-law's fault. It's just a little skin breakage, nothing serious."
Su Qianqian touched her wound, admitted her mistake and comforted Mrs. Du.
She lay on Lu Jing's horse and applied medicine on his wounds immediately. Now the wounds have healed. Su Qianqian always believes that taking good care of herself is the greatest convenience for those around her.
"It was almost dawn when we heard the news. We rushed to the place where the rock had collapsed and dug for a long time with everyone else, but we couldn't find anyone. It was not until last night when we dug all over the mountain that we stopped and let Qin Jiu, Han Yue and Han Jin search further away."
The second old lady continued.
"Dig out all the fallen sand and gravel?" Su Qianqian couldn't believe it.
