After galloping for dozens of miles on horseback, Xie Miaoxuan ordered to stop.
She felt a burning pain on the inside of her thigh from the saddle.
This body was kept delicate, and the only time he traveled far away was from Nanhai County to Kyoto. This time, he rode in a carriage covered with thick velvet cushions. Naturally, he was a little overwhelmed by the sudden rush.
She stood holding on to the tree trunk by the road to catch her breath, and asked Yi Yiqu to fetch some water to drink. She lowered her eyes and thought about what she would do now if Xie Yuanju really defected.
The identity seal was still in the carriage, and even the jade jade, the only token of the manor that he had settled in Kyoto, was given to him. Without household registration, he could only return to the Xie family's mansion to quarrel with those top-notch people?
Logically speaking, he shouldn't. If Xie Yuanju really had this intention, he wouldn't have to wait until now. There would be plenty of opportunities for him to do something in the thousands of miles north, so why wait until now.
Moreover, in the original body's memory, he seriously escorted her to Kyoto safely last time.
Everyone rested for a while.
"Girl." A powerful voice rang out in her ears, shocking her to the point of coming back to her senses.
Yi Jianbu knelt at her feet with clasped fists, looked straight at her, and said solemnly, "I suspect that the person who just hijacked the carriage and horse was Xie Yuanju in disguise."
Xie Miaoxuan's brows jumped.
"oh?"
Seeing that she didn't seem to believe it, the man stood up suddenly. Xie Miaoxuan's eyes followed his movements. He said in an urgent tone, "Girl, please believe what I say. There was no time when Xie Yuanju wasn't in front of me when I went north. This time, We were attacked but there was no trace of him. Besides, during our daily training, I often sparred with that guy, and I was very familiar with his methods, and his strength was rare in this world. Leader Yang Wei just now was just a If you meet someone, you will be beaten down, and it is difficult for someone who is not extremely powerful to do so."
Xie Miaoxuan noticed that his tight hands were covered with thick calluses from holding swords all year round. They were very powerful. She asked slowly, "Tell me why he did this? What will killing Yang Wei do to him?" benefit."
"My subordinate is stupid and would venture to guess that he must be resentful of the girl's recent cold treatment."
He hesitated as if he was embarrassed to speak. He seemed to have made a decision for a moment before he spoke, "He was originally the husband appointed by the husband to the girl, but now who doesn't know that he has long been rejected by the girl and dismissed from his post?" , and became a low-class slave. The girl was about to have a clan to rely on, and he was not pleased with it. Seeing that he was about to arrive in Kyoto, everyone felt relaxed. The tribe suffered heavy losses along the way, and more than half of the people were lost. I found this opportunity, pretended to be a robber, stole a huge amount of money and ran away."
Xie Miaoxuan paused slightly, as if he had heard it, and frowned deeply, asking, "Then what do you think we should do?"
"In my opinion, it is better for my subordinates to send the girl back to the clan immediately. As long as the girl reports the news to the head of the family and sends people to chase him, he will not be able to run too far with his huge wealth. After bringing him back, the girl can Leave him to me."
"Yeah." Xie Miaoxuan responded to his words perfunctorily, while walking towards the other tribes who were observing here, with a thoughtful look on his face, "What you said makes sense."
At this moment, he didn't care about her as a girl, but he was only thinking about making a lot of money and dealing with people.
Seeing her move, this subordinate's eyes suddenly flashed with sternness, and he stretched out his arm to pull her.
Xie Miaoxuan had been wary of him for a long time. As soon as he raised his hand, she ran and shouted over there, "Take this man down! He has other plans!"
But she originally felt pain in her thighs, and she was wearing a long skirt with a curved train, thinking she could run at lightning speed. In the eyes of others, she was just a tortoise crawling slowly. Her shoulders were instantly clamped, and a bone-breaking pain hit her, and her face turned pale in an instant. White.
The Buqu next to him reacted and quickly drew out the weapon at his waist to come to the rescue.
She glanced at the distance between the two sides. By the time those troops came over, she would already be in his grasp.
The whip was tied around her waist, and it couldn't be used at such a short distance. She suddenly pulled out the hairpin on her head and stabbed it hard towards her shoulder. There was a dull feeling in her hand, and warm liquid splashed on the side of her face, but the hand was still holding her tightly like a pair of pliers.
The man hated her ignorance and wanted to slap her on the back of the heart to remove her resistance.
If this palm was carried out, Xie Miaoxuan would definitely suffer internal injuries.
At this moment, a sound broke through the air past her ears.
Phew.
Then the strength on his shoulders relaxed, and Xie Miaoxuan was pushed hard to the ground.
With his ears pressed against the ground, he heard the sound of horse hooves coming from the ground. He felt dazed for a while, and then he felt himself being pulled up.
She felt like she was a piece of dough, letting people pull her around. At this moment, her dissatisfaction with the weakness of her body reached a peak.
Looking from the broad chest holding her, she could see that the man had a clear jawline. From such a close distance, she saw that his pupils were gleaming blue and green, and his expression was cold and solemn.
It was Xie Yuanju. He slowly lowered the long bow in his hand.
"Are you okay?"
She shook her head and turned around to see that the man who was holding her earlier had been shot through the chest with a sword. The arrow was still vibrating, and scarlet blood flowed out of his chest.
He fell to the ground and gasped for breath. Over the years, he had been educated by Xie Qi. Apart from the daily hard work of practicing martial arts, he had long been accustomed to a comfortable and luxurious life, and felt that these were all things he deserved.
He felt the loss of life force and roared, "It's unfair! Even if you are a girl, you are only assigned to a servant like Xie Yuanju. Such a huge wealth has taken advantage of others. Why am I wrong?"
Even if she returns to the clan, so what. The eldest daughter who lost her father and her parents is just marrying low. The head of the family has no husband. He was adopted by the head of the family since he was a child. His knowledge has long surpassed that of ordinary children from aristocratic families. Why can't he do it? Inherited, his face was twisted with reluctance.
After Yang Wei's head rolled before, she was not afraid of this scene at all. At this time, she still remembered her original despicable attitude towards Xie Yuanju. She tried to change her expression, but she really couldn't make an unreasonably bad expression. , had no choice but to silently push away Xie Yuanju, who was still hugging her.
He walked to Na Bu Qu and squatted down, looking at him word by word with dark eyes, "This world is indeed unfair. Kings and nobles are born to be superior to others. No matter how unwilling you are, you should not forget the care of your family master. If he didn't accept it, You, you have no chance to practice Chinese writing or martial arts at all. Your parents have already sold you to a dirty place, and you have been devoured by this man-eating world. Not even the bones and dregs are left. You should not treat the pearl he holds in the palm of your hand. When you have evil thoughts, even a beast knows you can’t repay kindness with evil!”
In today's era, writing is in the hands of the gentry, and knowledge is monopolized by the upper class.
The imperial examination system had not yet come into existence. If you wanted to become an official, you could only go through the examination and examination. Officials protected each other and passed down the family from generation to generation. The more this happens, the more no nobles are willing to teach the words in their hands.
In order to become literate, families who suddenly got rich would voluntarily donate a thousand pieces of gold or all their wealth to serve as slaves among the nobles. Only after looking at their faces could they get the opportunity to borrow books and read them. Whether they could learn to read or not all depended on their personal understanding.
These songs left by Father Xie were all collected from people who had to sell their sons and daughters and had no food and clothing to keep them warm. Because they were kept for their own daughters, each of them had a big problem. Strength cultivated. The cost of food and clothing is comparable to that of the heirs of ordinary aristocratic families, so they can maintain a strong body and strong strength.
Various collections of calligraphy treasures and all the Xie family's music can be browsed at will.
He lowered his head and rubbed the numb half of his shoulders, brushing the dust off his body.
Xie Miaoxuan stood up and watched his blushing face indifferently until he took his last breath.
"Why are you late?" She asked quietly when she heard her own voice.
