Chapter 129 Encountering Disaster Victims
Su Yuan chuckled, put the clothes he had taken off aside, and helped him lie down.
After hearing Nan Chu's snoring while sleeping.
Su Yuan slowly turned around, crawled into Meng Yunlan's slightly opened quilt, hugged the man with a slightly low body temperature into his arms, and whispered:
"Yunlan, are you asleep?"
Meng Yunlan opened her eyes, slightly raised her head to look at Su Yuan's delicate profile, and whispered in a hoarse voice:
"Wife, you are here."
Su Yuan hummed lightly and asked:
"Have you taken the pills? I heard you coughing a few times today. If you feel unwell, remember to tell me immediately and don't keep it to yourself."
Go to Tongcheng in the first half of the year.
She still remembers that Meng Yunlan vomited blood and fainted due to the cold weather!
So for the first few nights, I slept with my partner in my arms.
Meng Yunlan had never thought that Su Yuan would pay so much attention to her. She was so moved that her eyes were filled with tears. She leaned closer to the woman's arms, her lips curled up slightly, and she replied in a moist voice:
"My dear wife, I understand. I accidentally breathed in a few breaths of cold air while eating during the day. It's okay. If I feel uncomfortable, I will tell you."
Su Yuan nodded.
Just as he was about to tell Meng Yunlan to close his eyes and rest, there was a slight knock on the carriage door.
She frowned slightly and whispered:
"Go to sleep first, I'll go out and take a look."
He lifted the quilt, put on his coat slowly, opened the door and got off the carriage quickly.
Outside the carriage.
Su Yuan closed the double-leaf mahogany doors, glanced at Su Qinger, and asked calmly:
"What is it?"
Su Qing lowered his head slightly, looked at the group of people behind him, and reported truthfully:
"Master, a group of people came up to us from behind and asked us if we should form a team together so that we can take care of each other on the road."
After that, she pursed her lips, frowned and continued:
"I have already refused, but they insisted on coming. I couldn't make up my mind, so I came to ask you, how should this matter be handled?"
Now they are all good citizens.
I can't just kill people directly as I did in the past, otherwise it will cause unnecessary trouble for the master.
Su Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly and walked slowly to the rear of the carriage with Su Qinger.
She glanced coldly at the sturdy woman who was being stopped by the guards, and asked with a half-smile:
"You want to see the head of this family?"
The sturdy woman looked at Su Yuan with scrutiny, then raised the corner of her mouth and said with a smile:
"My lady, at your age, you should be one of the candidates going to Beijing to take the imperial examination. I am the young master of Yuancheng Escort Agency. There are candidates from Huachen Academy who are going to Beijing to take the imperial examination in our convoy. Maybe they are your classmates!"
"Hmm..., how about we form a team? We will be entering Minzhou tomorrow. There is strength in numbers, and we will have someone to look after us on the way."
After listening to the sturdy woman's words, Su Yuan did not answer her series of questions, but only said lightly:
"It's a dark and windy night. The young master should leave quickly and not disturb others' sweet dreams."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked without stopping, as if she was chatting with Su Qinger:
"Qing Er, right now we are experiencing a drought and supplies are scarce. If there are crows cawing at night, just shoot them down. They will be just right for breakfast tomorrow to replenish your body."
Su Qinger's lips curved slightly, he tilted his head to the sturdy woman, raised his eyebrows, and replied loudly:
"Yes, Patriarch."
Behind.
After hearing this, the young master of Yuancheng Escort Agency turned pale with fright and the smile on his face disappeared.
She looked carefully at the face of the guard with a knife who was trying to stop her, and the more she looked, the more ferocious he looked.
Without waiting for anyone to attack him again, he apologized a few words and turned around and ran back to his escort team. He complained to the woman in white sitting in the front room of the carriage:
"Didn't you say that the team would definitely agree to join us? In the end, not only was I rejected, I almost became their meal. What kind of bad ideas did you come up with?"
A hint of surprise flashed across Gu Ranran's eyes, and then he frowned and said:
"I am only giving Young Master a suggestion. After all, in this famine season, most people would gladly agree to team up with the escort agency. How could I have expected this to happen?"
After saying this, she thought about how her safety would depend on the strong woman in front of her, so she shook her head, sighed and admitted her mistake:
"Forget it, forget it, just think it's Gu's fault, Young Master, don't be angry, we have more people anyway, we are not afraid, now it's getting late, let's rest!"
The sturdy woman glanced at her with disdain, pursed her lips and said "hmm", then swung the curtain and walked into the carriage.
The next day, early morning.
Dark clouds covered the sky. The thick clouds were gray and gloomy. A group of people from the Su family staggered into the territory of Minzhou.
In the carriage.
Su Yuan opened the specially made iron window and looked out at the extremely desolate border town of Minzhou with no grass growing.
And the Yuancheng Escort Agency, which had been following their convoy since entering the city.
Seeing this, she sighed softly.
This is to use them as the lead!
Very good, let’s see who will suffer in the end.
Su Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, shouted to the outside to stop the car, and then sat in the front room of the first carriage. He solemnly instructed the five palace guards:
"One of you stays behind to drive the carriage, and the other four go to guard the rear of the last carriage. If there are disaster victims trying to get on the carriage, I will lead the way and clear the obstacles, while you and the other five will be responsible for clearing the rear. Let's try to leave as quickly as possible. Do you remember everything?"
The five people nodded and quickly selected one person to drive the horse. The others went to the rear as Su Yuan instructed. After everything was ready, the convoy set off again.
Minzhou, Dingxi City.
The city was sparsely populated, with almost no civilians to be seen, save for the cold wind blowing and the occasional rustling sound of a few dead leaves falling to the ground.
Apart from the hoarse and unpleasant cries of crows in the trees, it seems like a dead city, giving people a deep feeling of depression.
Suddenly.
Two groups of people were approaching from the front.
The creaking sound of the wheels and the crackling sound of the scorched and dry leaves seemed to be a symphony of signals, alerting those who had been lying in ambush in the dark.
The front room of the carriage.
Su Yuan sat in front with a sword in one hand. Suddenly, her ears moved slightly, and she suddenly opened her tightly closed eyes. She looked in one direction and narrowed her eyes slightly.
"rush--"
Along with a sharp and loud female voice, a large group of men and women with empty and indifferent eyes and skinny as skeletons emerged from a dark alley.
They held machetes, harpoons, and shiny kitchen knives, and climbed up and chopped at the carriage where Su Yuan was.
