Chapter 243 Self-rescue
Xiao Baozhu was so shocked that she almost lost her balance. "What!"
"The Sixth Young Master said he wants to see you. This is his token. If the Ninth Princess trusts me enough, please come with me. If we go too late, I'm afraid..."
The servant was holding a jade pendant. She recognized the jade pendant and it was indeed something Jiang Nansheng always carried with him.
She had just heard that the situation in Xiping was not peaceful. When the bad news about Jiang Nansheng came, it immediately confirmed her previous guess. She panicked instantly and didn't care about anything else. She immediately got on the other party's carriage.
"Quick, take me to see her!"
The carriage sped all the way out of the city without stopping for a moment.
Xiao Baozhu was so anxious that she couldn't sit still. She kept stroking the jade pendant in her hand and praying over and over again that Jiang Nansheng would be safe.
She looked at the jade pendant, and her eyes suddenly fixed for a moment.
She picked it up, looked at it carefully, and found that the pattern on one corner of the jade pendant seemed different.
She remembered that she had accidentally dropped Ah Sheng's jade pendant, leaving a thin crack on the inside. It was not obvious, but seemed to have merged with the original pattern.
However, this jade pendant does not have this fine line.
She hadn't had time to take a closer look just now due to her haste, but now she had carefully examined it several times and had thoroughly confirmed that there were indeed no fine lines inside the jade pendant.
Xiao Baozhu suddenly felt a chill and a bad premonition came over her heart.
Is this person really Jiang Nansheng's man? I have never seen him before.
She quietly lifted the curtain and looked out. The carriage had already left the city and passed Jinxiufang. The road was now deserted on both sides and she couldn't recognize where she was.
She couldn't help but hold Qionghua's hand.
Her palms were cold, but Qionghua thought she was worried about Jiang Nansheng, so she comforted him, "Princess, don't worry. Young Master Jiang is a lucky man, and he will be fine."
Xiao Baozhu swallowed and whispered something into Qionghua's ear. Qionghua's face turned pale instantly.
After a moment, Qionghua slammed the carriage wall, "Stop, my princess needs to go to the bathroom urgently, please stop."
The driver remained unmoved. "Princess, please be patient. If you don't hurry up, you won't be able to see my Sixth Young Master for the last time."
Qionghua shouted anxiously, "My princess has an unbearable stomachache and can't stand it anymore. Stop it now!"
The other party did not respond, but drove the carriage faster.
His reaction made both the master and the servant feel a chill in their hearts.
Xiao Baozhu regretted it very much, blaming herself for being too stupid and easily fooled by the other party.
"Open the car door and let's jump out!"
It is certainly risky to jump out of the car now, but if you do nothing, you don’t know where the other party will take them.
However, they pushed the door hard but found that it could not be opened at all.
This person locked the car door at some point!
They began to push and bang on the door and shouted for help, but there was wilderness all around them and their cries were soon drowned out by the endless wilderness.
After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Baozhu's voice became hoarse, and the carriage finally stopped.
The door was opened and Xiao Baozhu and Qionghua were taken down from the carriage.
Before she could act like a princess, her eyes widened when she saw the person in front of her.
…
Sun Muzhi would return home as soon as he got off work every day.
If he had gone back earlier, he might have been able to see the person he wanted to see.
She has been going to Zixiaoyuan often to accompany her mother recently, and her mother is obviously much happier than before.
Today's handover was delayed for some time. As he rushed back, he wondered if she had come to the Sun family today. Even if she had, she would have probably left and he would definitely not be able to see her again.
Passing by Sajin Street, I caught a glimpse of a figure getting into a carriage.
That back figure looked familiar, like her.
But the carriage was plain and not hers.
Moreover, the carriage was not heading into the palace, but out of the city.
Sun Muzhi quickly withdrew his gaze and secretly laughed at himself for being crazy, as everyone he saw looked like her.
Soon, he saw another carriage, which belonged to Xiao Baozhu. This time he could confirm that it was definitely hers.
The carriage broke down and the driver was repairing it.
He thought Xiao Baozhu was in the carriage, so he went forward to greet her, but was told that Xiao Baozhu had gone shopping with her maid.
For some reason, Sun Muzhi thought of the figure he had just seen.
Is it her?
Sun Muzhi's heart beat wildly for no apparent reason, and a sudden ominous premonition came over him.
His premonitions have always been accurate.
Last time, he had a premonition that Xiao Baozhu would be in danger in the woods, and he rushed over as soon as he heard the tiger's roar.
Is she in danger again this time?
Perhaps he was overthinking it. He hoped that Xiao Baozhu would be safe more than anyone else.
But what if?
What if someone wants to harm Xiao Baozhu and she gets on the other person's carriage without any defense? What should she do?
After thinking for a while, he kicked his horse's belly and galloped towards the city without hesitation.
There is only one main road out of the city, but it forks after a few miles.
Sun Muzhi stared at the wheel marks on the ground, quickly made a judgment, and chased in the east direction.
He rode very fast, his face tense, and his hands pulling the reins hard.
He couldn't imagine what would happen if something really happened to Xiao Baozhu.
He couldn't even imagine what the outcome would be if he chose the wrong path.
When he chased to a certain place, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye.
There was an embroidered shoe in the grass by the roadside.
He had seen that embroidered shoe!
It was embroidered by my mother for Xiao Baozhu.
She liked it very much and wore this pair of shoes every time she came.
Sun Muzhi pressed the shoe hard, and an indescribable chill surged in his heart.
Not far ahead, he picked up another shoe.
Afterwards, there were gold hairpins, hairpins and other things along the way, but he did not stop to pick them up.
The appearance of those things was enough to prove that she had indeed fallen into the hands of the wrong people, and she herself had discovered this.
She is trying to save herself.
You must hold on.
He will be here soon.
At this moment, Xiao Baozhu was stunned by the man in front of her, and cold sweat quickly seeped out of her back.
"Jiang Zelin, why is it you!"
The person in front of me seemed completely different from the one I saw a month ago.
His face was thin, his cheeks were deeply sunken, and his whole body was shrouded in an indescribable sinisterness. When he looked at people, his eyes were like those of a cold and poisonous snake.
The most striking thing is that his right arm is empty.
He was attacked by a tiger that day and lost one arm.
If it weren't for his grandfather, Dr. Jiang, who tried his best to treat him, his life would have been lost.
But even if he survived, he had become a one-armed monster and a living dead.
The Jiang family's future was ruined because of him. Except for his mother, no one in the family felt sorry for him and everyone blamed him.
His life has lost its meaning.
He wanted to die countless times, thinking that death would put an end to everything.
But he was unwilling to give up.
Why should I die like this?
He blamed all this on Xiao Baozhu.
If it weren't for her, how could I have ended up like this?
It's all her fault.
If I have to die, I will take her with me and die together.
