Imperial capital.
Changping Street.
This is the busiest place in the entire capital. There are many businesses on both sides of the street, and there is an endless stream of pedestrians walking in the middle of the road.
It was almost noon, and the spring sunshine was very pleasant.
Among the crowd, three people stood out.
The leader was a young man with a jade crown and a dark moiré robe, holding a folding fan.
Walking alongside it was a woman. The woman wore a white gauze hat to cover her face. She wore a sapphire blue dress and a white gauze. She walked with a graceful and graceful look.
Behind the two of them, there was also a little girl wearing a bun and a light pink dress, jumping up and down as she walked.
"Xiaoyu, there are many people on the street, please stop for a while and walk carefully." Feng Shuwan turned around and said to the little girl behind her.
When Xiaoyu heard this, her mouth tightened and she started walking obediently.
Wei Zhuang smiled at Feng Shuwan and said, "You and Xiaoyu finally went out. If she is happy, let her have fun. But you, Shuwan, the weather is so nice and you still wear a veil, aren't you bored?"
Feng Shuwan shook her head: "Now that I am a person, it is better to cover my face when I come out."
Wei Zhuang looked at her and felt a little funny, so he teased her: "You always said you wanted to come to the people to hang out, but now you are paying attention to your identity and putting on airs?"
Feng Shuwan's face turned slightly red when she heard this, and she replied angrily: "I'm not as noble as you, so why would I put on any airs? I'm not wearing a veil to protect your face."
According to the rules of this era, noble women in the palace are not allowed to come out at will. Even if they are allowed to come out, they must sit in sedan chairs. Anyway, they will try their best to hide their faces for the sake of the royal family.
However, Wei Zhuang, a new young man in the 21st century, obviously doesn't care much about such feudal rules.
"That's up to you." Wei Zhuang chose to follow Feng Shuwan's wishes.
Unexpectedly, Feng Shuwan became unhappy: "Huh, I won't wear it anymore." She took off her veil after saying that.
The veil was taken off, and Feng Shuwan's delicate face looked even more perfect in the sunshine. As for the people around him, regardless of age or sex, dozens of people cast their eyes in this direction instantly, and everyone was shocked by this peerless appearance.
When Feng Shuwan saw so many people looking at her, she immediately panicked. She blushed and put on the veil again. The people around him also looked away in disappointment. This also made Wei Zhuang laugh out loud, and at the same time he felt proud, thinking that if this were in modern times, Feng Shuwan would definitely be a big star.
The three of them walked forward talking and laughing.
They were discussing their next trip when they suddenly heard a noise behind them.
"Get out of the way!"
A loud shout exploded in the street, followed by the sound of horse hooves hitting the ground.
When Wei Zhuang turned around, he saw that the crowd was panicking, pushing each other and scattering around like a tide. Some people were even pushed to the ground and did not bother to stand up. They held their heads and crawled to the side of the road to dodge. They were frightened for a moment. The screams are endless.
Seeing that the crowd was about to rush here, Feng Shuwan and Xiaoyu were also a little overwhelmed. Wei Zhuang's heart sank and he immediately protected the two of them and hid towards the roadside.
In this way, the originally crowded street was torn open, and then a dozen carriages lined up and rushed over. The driver at the front was still angrily scolding passers-by.
…
"It's really dangerous. Fortunately, I can hide quickly."
"Who says it's not the case? If you almost get hit, it's over!"
"This bunch of damned ones are completely lawless!"
The people around him were cursing in low voices, with anger in their eyes. Wei Zhuang's face darkened. Listening to the words of the people around him, it was obvious that this was not the first time this happened.
The imperial capital is at the feet of the emperor. Those who can be so lawless here must not be ordinary people.
Wei Zhuang was just thinking about whether to teach them a lesson, when another horse's neighing came to his ears.
"Hey, hide quickly, the horse is frightened!"
The horse at the end of the team was hit by something from the people around it. Suddenly its hoofs left the ground and neighed, then it shook its head and rushed past the boundary of the crowd.
Wei Zhuang pulled Feng Shuwan and Xiaoyu back with the crowd. However, it was inconvenient for the two women to move in long skirts. As soon as the crowd retreated, the three of them reached the front row. Fortunately, everyone retreated far enough away from the carriage. some distance away.
However, just as the carriage was about to roar past carrying dust, the coachman in the carriage pulled the reins hard in panic. With this pull, the frightened horse instantly raised its front hooves high.
And under the horse's hooves, it was Feng Shuwan!
Feng Shuwan only felt a cool breeze in front of her, and the huge body of the horse covered the sky and the sun. All the thoughts in her mind were to avoid it, but when she was about to move, she felt that her feet were so weak that she couldn't move, so she subconsciously closed her eyes.
Several people shouted towards Feng Shuwan.
"Get away, girl!"
"I'm scared, this girl is scared!"
"It's over, it's over..."
"Miss, come here quickly!" Xiaoyu anxiously reached out to pull her but it was already too late.
Feng Shuwan's heart trembled, and a cold feeling spread all over her body in an instant.
It’s over, it’s really over now! You have just made up your mind to face a new life, are you about to say goodbye to this world?
Listening to the screams in her ears, Feng Shuwan had a look of despair on her face.
However, the next moment, several exclamations sounded. Feng Shuwan suddenly felt a tightness in her waist, and then a strong force held her in the air and spun her around quickly.
When she opened her eyes again, Feng Shuwan saw Wei Zhuang's face.
At this time, Feng Shuwan had already arrived at Xiaoyu's side. Wei Zhuang put one hand around Feng Shuwan's waist and turned his back to the frightened horse. At that moment, Wei Zhuang put his arms around Feng Shuwan and changed positions. All the movements took less than a second...
The frightened horse's hoofs almost touched Wei Zhuang's back.
Wei Zhuang's face was covered in cold sweat.
The street was silent at this time, and everyone was frightened by the scene in front of them.
Xiaoyu quickly came over to support Feng Shuwan, with a worried look on her face: "Miss, Miss! Are you okay?"
Feng Shuwan's face turned pale, and she shook her head in shock, "It's okay..."
When Wei Zhuang saw that Feng Shuwan was okay, he took a long breath, loosened his arm around her waist, and then slowly turned around.
He was facing the frightened horse. To be precise, the horse was looking down at Wei Zhuang.
Wei Zhuang stood still, his body was like a long sword, and bursts of killing intent burst out from his eyes.
The frightened horse's dark eyes suddenly dodge and he took two steps back. Wei Zhuang stared directly into its eyes and stepped forward slowly step by step. The frightened horse, which was originally restless, lowered its head and retreated like a bereaved dog.
Everyone around took a breath.
One person can actually scare away a frightened horse with his momentum.
This is amazing...
Just like that, the carriage was forced step by step to the middle of the road by Wei Zhuang, and the coachman was holding on to the reins before he could recover from his panic.
"Well done!"
Someone in the crowd shouted loudly, and the next moment the crowd was full of voices, and for a while, the streets were filled with praise. Wei Zhuang sighed, and some of the anger in his heart dissipated amidst the cheers.
At this moment, the carriage that had gone far ahead stopped, and a man stepped out of the carriage. He walked up to the coachman with a sullen face and slapped him without saying a word.
"Idiot, you can't even drive a carriage, so what's the use of you!"
