Chapter 49 You can solve whatever you want.
Jiang Zhi looked over with some surprise.
But then she saw a pair of fair and delicate hands grasping her fingers, prying her off the door frame inch by inch.
Okay, very good.
Jiang Zhi hadn't felt this way in a long time.
She knew that Jiang Yunqian regarded her as a thorn in her side and could never stand to see her doing well.
But now the situation is dire and urgent. Is Jiang Yunqian really so sure that she can escape from the bandits unharmed?
Instead of thinking about how to escape, he only cared about pushing her into the hands of the bandits.
Jiang Zhi's eyes turned slightly cold, and she had already made up her mind.
The moment she let go completely, she ripped off the heavy curtain, crying out in alarm, "Sister, run! Don't worry about me!"
The bandit exclaimed in surprise, "Huh?" as he noticed that there was another person in the dimly lit carriage.
This is unbelievable! The boss clearly said there was only one young lady and one maid in the carriage. When did another person appear?
Jiang Yunqian huddled at the very back of the carriage, crying out in panic, "She's the person you're looking for! Just take her away, and I'll pretend I didn't see anything and won't tell anyone."
The bandit leaned in suspiciously, looking her up and down. "And who are you?"
Jiang Zhi then said from behind, "We are all young ladies of the Jiang family. If you want to arrest someone, arrest me, but don't touch my sister!"
Jiang Yunqian nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, yes."
Realizing her mistake, she quickly corrected herself, "No, no, she's my sister! Jiang Zhi, what nonsense are you spouting?!"
Jiang Zhi seemed to wake up from a dream and hurriedly nodded, "Yes, yes, I am the older sister. If you want to arrest someone, arrest me, don't hurt my younger sister."
The bandits, annoyed by the group of sisters, pulled Jiang Yunqian out of the carriage.
But she was indeed dressed much more luxuriously than the man next to her, and she was wearing the light pink embroidered cloak that they had agreed upon with that man.
This time it shouldn't be wrong.
"Trying to fool me again?" he sneered, gripping Jiang Yunqian's wrist tightly with one hand, almost snapping it in two, and said fiercely, "You'll get what's coming to you later!"
Jiang Yunqian was panicked and scared, her whole body trembling. "No, she really is my sister, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family you are looking for. I just stumbled in by mistake. She has always been cunning and treacherous, so please don't be fooled by her!"
"Jiang Zhi, you dared to drag me down with you just to save your own life, you bitch! I'm going to kill you!!"
The bandit slapped Jiang Yunqian across the face, "What are you yelling about? You think you can make a fool of me?"
"Waaaaah... I'm telling the truth..." Jiang Yunqian's lips were bleeding from the blow, and she sobbed, "I swear to God, if I'm lying to you, may I be struck by lightning."
The bandits looked at this one, then at that one, and hesitated for a moment.
The carriage had been brought to a complete stop, and the remaining bandits had caught up.
The leader was a tall man dressed in a dark brown outfit and black boots. The lower half of his face was covered by a black cloth, revealing only a pair of narrow, hawk-like eyebrows and eyes, with a very faint old scar at the corner of his eye. He lowered his voice and asked, "What are you still dawdling about?"
The bandits on the cart recounted what had just happened between the two men.
The leader waved his long arm and said, "Those two guards are not easy to deal with. They will catch up soon. Take them both away first, and we'll figure it out when we get there."
So Jiang Zhi and Jiang Yunqian were both tied up, and each of them was thrown onto a horse sideways.
However, they seemed to be more inclined to believe that Jiang Yunqian was their target, and the person in charge was directly responsible for escorting her.
Jiang Zhi was carried sideways on the back of a horse by a relatively young bandit.
“My hero brother,” Jiang Zhi said, her eyes welling up with tears, looking up at him with a pitiful expression, “please drive slowly. I’ve always been weak, and I’m afraid I’ll throw up if it’s too bumpy.”
She was already beautiful, but after a series of frights, her hair was disheveled, her thin shoulders trembled slightly as she spoke, and her pair of watery eyes looked at him pitifully, making her look even more delicate and helpless.
Compared to Jiang Yunqian, who cried her heart out with tears streaming down her face, Jiang Zhi's crying style was clearly more endearing.
The bandit was stunned for a moment, then quickly laughed out loud, "No problem, no problem. As long as you behave well later, I will definitely not treat you badly."
The group of people simply abandoned the carriage and drove away.
Jiang Zhi's feigned weakness had indeed worked.
The bandit noticeably slowed his pace, keeping a safe distance from the group, and even mercifully asked Jiang Zhi if she needed to rest.
In his eyes, Jiang Zhi was like fish on a chopping board, ready to be devoured as soon as she returned to their lair.
Therefore, he didn't mind taking care of her a little on the way, which earned her heartfelt gratitude and tears of joy, making his heart, as a man, swell with immense satisfaction.
To avoid being followed, the group abandoned the mountain path and ventured into the dense forest.
Seeing that her horse had built up enough distance from the group ahead, Jiang Zhi spoke up again, "Big brother, my wrists are tied too tightly with the rope, could you perhaps..."
The bandit chuckled, "That won't do. Just bear with it. We'll be there soon after we cross this forest. Then you can solve whatever you want, hehe."
"Brother, you've misunderstood. I just wanted you to check if my wrists were chafed raw by the rope..."
She raised both hands as she spoke.
The bandits looked down, but only saw several flashes of silver light before their eyes!
He instinctively felt something was wrong and tried to avoid it, but the two were too close, and he couldn't avoid it at all. A piercing pain immediately shot through his eye socket!
He wanted to scream, but it felt like his throat was blocked by a wad of cotton, and he couldn't make a sound.
He stared wide-eyed at Jiang Zhi, unable to believe that he had been outmaneuvered by such a seemingly delicate woman. Finally, with his eyes wide open, he fell straight off his horse with a "plop" and died without a sound.
Jiang Zhi was extremely grateful for her foresight in coating the silver needles on her ring with poison beforehand.
Otherwise, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly.
The horse beneath her hadn't even stopped yet, and the people in front were busy hurrying on their way, not yet noticing what was happening behind them. This undoubtedly gave her an excellent opportunity to escape.
Jiang Zhi spotted a low bush flashing by, gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and rolled off the horse.
