At the Waer River, Liu Yunxiang once again promised the eighth girl that she would save her cousin and her mother.
"Princess, please tell your cousin to forget me, find a good girl, get married and have children, and live the rest of your life well."
Liu Yunxiang felt uncomfortable, "Okay."
After the Xiyue people left, Liu Yunxiang said goodbye to Pei Xuan and watched them leave. When he was about to return, a man on horseback suddenly caught up with him. When he got closer, Liu Yunxiang saw clearly that it was a young man.
He was wearing a cotton shorts, with a thin figure and dark complexion. He was galloping towards this side anxiously.
"Li Chong, it's him!" Marquis Yun frowned.
"Li Chong?" Qin Feishi asked Marquis Yun, "Who is this?"
Marquis Yun didn't care what he said, got on his horse, and shouted to his subordinates behind him: "Stop the man, don't let him cause trouble!"
So a group of people surrounded the man, and the man was very good at horseback riding. After dodging several times, he broke out of the encirclement and ran towards the West Vietnamese wedding team.
"Cousin! I'm here, I'm here to save you!" the man shouted into the distance.
Liu Yunxiang understood immediately, "This man is the eighth girl's cousin!"
Minister Wen also reacted, "It's bad, he wants to steal the bride!"
The Xiyue man hadn't gone very far, and he would catch up soon. Qin Feishi was also anxious, got on his horse and asked to stop him.
"Don't hurt him!"
Liu Yunxiang hurriedly gave instructions, but the next moment, a sharp arrow shot out of the air and caught up with the man.
"careful!"
Liu Yunxiang shouted, but it was too late. The arrow went straight through the man's chest, and the man immediately fell off his horse.
The archer was Marquis Yun, and he was very proud when he saw that he had shot down the man.
Not caring about arguing with him, Liu Yunxiang and Qin Fei rushed over and saw the man lying on the ground, vomiting blood from his mouth.
"Prince Qing, save people quickly!"
Qin Fei immediately squatted down to check the man's wound. When he saw that it was right in the wound, he shook his head helplessly.
"Then you have to try it!" Liu Yunxiang said anxiously.
"it's useless."
Liu Yunxiang looked at the man again, his breathing became more and more urgent, and his mouth opened and closed. She also knew that this man could not be saved, so she sighed deeply, then knelt down and said to him: "The eighth girl asked me to tell you that she hopes you forget her, marry a good girl, and live the rest of your life well."
"No...no..." He managed to say the word.
"Your fate will never be broken, and it will continue in the next life."
The man spit out the last mouthful of blood and looked at the sky, his pupils slowly dilating.
At this time, Marquis Yun came over and asked, "Are you dead?"
Liu Yunxiang stood up suddenly and said, "Marquis Yun, you kill innocent people indiscriminately. When you return to the capital, I will tell His Highness that you will be punished!"
Marquis Yun roared, "I am taking the overall situation into consideration!"
"Just stop him, why do you want to kill him?"
"If you keep him, there will be trouble in the future!"
"What you say is so high-sounding, you are just doing it for your own selfish reasons!"
"I don't care what the Crown Princess thinks of me. I believe the Emperor will make his own decision!" After saying that, Marquis Yun got on his horse and left with his men.
Zi Jin saw that the man was really pitiful and asked Liu Yunxiang, "Girl, let's bury him?"
Liu Yunxiang closed her eyes. She failed to do the first thing that the eighth girl asked her to do.
"Bury him outside Dingxi Pass, facing Xiyue. I hope that one day Miss Eight can return to her homeland and he can rest in peace."
After burying the man, the group returned to Zhenxiguan first. After a short rest, they set off back to Shengjing. They gained a lot from this trip, settled the marriage issue, and set a date for the alliance.
Taking Liu Yunxiang's health into consideration, he walked very slowly. By the time he arrived in Shengjing, it was already the winter months.
Still a hundred miles away from the city gate, the group stopped to rest.
"Girl, it's snowing." Zijin said excitedly from across the carriage.
Liu Yunxiang opened the curtain and saw that there was already a thick layer of snow outside. The mountains in the distance were like silver, and the nearby trees were covered with frost and snow, like pear blossoms competing to bloom.
It was still summer when I left, but it was already winter when I returned.
Liu Yunxiang stroked her bulging belly and counted that it was almost eight months. The child had been tired and suffered from following her all the way.
Liu Yunxiang let Zi Jin help her out of the carriage, and Zi Jin put a mink velvet cloak on her and then held an umbrella.
"Feng Zheng went back to the palace to deliver the letter first," Zijin said.
Liu Yunxiang nodded and glanced north at the official road back to the city. He would be home soon.
"The snow is too heavy and the wheels of the car keep slipping. There is an inn not far over there. Let's stay there tonight."
Liu Yunxiang looked at the heavy snow in the sky and realized that it was really not suitable to walk in the snow. Anyway, Shengjing was not far away, so it was okay to stay overnight.
"Just King Yiqing."
When he arrived at the inn, Liu Yunxiang ate something briefly and then lay down to rest. She dragged her body back to Beijing for eight months, and no matter how careful she was on the way, she was still so tired that she fell asleep as soon as she hit the bed.
She fell into a deep sleep, and it was Zijin who woke her up.
"Girl, it's getting dark. Eat something before going to sleep."
Liu Yunxiang was confused for a while, and then he let Zijin help him get up.
"Is it still snowing?" she asked.
"Yes, it's getting bigger and bigger."
"I don't know if we can stop tomorrow."
Liu Yunxiang washed up briefly, and then Zijin went out to serve the food.
Liu Yunxiang opened the window and looked outside. He wanted to take a look at the snowy scene outside, but suddenly he found that there were only a few horses left in the stables in the courtyard. They and their group stayed in this inn. There were more than a dozen horses, how could there be only these few left?
At this time, Zi Jin came in with food, and Liu Yunxiang asked hurriedly: "Where is Prince Qing?"
"Prince Qing?" Zijin thought for a while, "After checking into the inn, he went back to his room to rest. He must have fallen asleep like you."
"What about his men? Did you see one of them all afternoon?"
Zijin thought for a moment, then shook his head, "No, I didn't see any!"
"Go and have a look at Prince Qing's house!"
Zijin realized something was wrong, quickly put down the food and ran out. After a while, she ran back.
"No, there is no one in the room, and none of his subordinates are in their respective rooms!"
Liu Yunxiang glanced at the stables below again, his face darkened, "Let our people cheer up, there are ambushes around here."
"ah?"
"Go quickly!"
After Zijin left, Liu Yunxiang gritted her teeth. This Qin Feishi was definitely a wolf, and he was heartless. They had worked together through life and death before, which actually made her forget how bad this wolf was.
As soon as he returned to Beijing, he immediately taught her a lesson.
As soon as Liu Yunxiang and the others got together, a dozen men in black broke into the inn and killed them.
Fortunately, Liu Yunxiang brought a few guards with him. They rushed up to fight the man in black, while Zijin protected Liu Yunxiang.
There were many people on the other side, and someone on their side fell down quickly.
"Girl, let's go out through the back door!"
Zi Jin protected Liu Yunxiang and walked around to the back door. As soon as he got out, he was stopped by several men in black. Zi Jin gritted his teeth and could only rush forward to fight, and there was no one around Liu Yunxiang.
At this time, two men in black came to kill from the left and right. Liu Yunxiang hurriedly dodged, but he couldn't.
At this moment, a sword came through the air and first assassinated the man in black on the left of Liu Yunxiang. At the same time, someone protected Liu Yunxiang behind him and kicked away the man in black on the right.
Liu Yunxiang was in shock, but when he saw the person in front of him, he felt relieved.
