Xiyi said with tears in her eyes, "Sister, I won't rest any longer. I'm rushing to save my family's lives!" She followed the woman to lead the horse.
The woman looked at her and Xiangxiang as they walked: "Looking at the two girls dressed like servant girls from a wealthy family, why didn't they bring a few people with them when they came out?"
"Yes, I was negligent for a moment!"
The woman chased away and called her husband, and went to lead the horse. It was a black horse. Xiyi pushed hard on the horse's back, and then let the woman hold her hand, and she pulled Xiangxiang up. , holding the horse in his arms, waving the horse's reins, and did not forget to thank him before leaving: "Thank you very much, sister, for your help. I will bring the horse back tomorrow and pay a visit with a heavy gift."
"It's not a big deal, just save people first!"
The horses ran fast, shuttling through the bustling night market to the quiet royal residence. When they arrived at the Liushou Mansion, it was already late at night, the lights were all off, and everything was quiet. Xiyi placed Xiangxiang in the corner, limped forward, knocked on the door and shouted: "Here comes someone! Open the door!"
"Open the door, open the door! I am Xiyi, open the door!"
The guard in charge of the residence was awakened, put on his clothes and went over, shouting sleepily: "Who dares to break into the residence late at night?"
That man was also impatient. He was dazed and stunned for a long time without opening the door. He leaned against the wall and continued to sleep.
The last one to open the door was Zhang Jiyan, who was leading the patrol tonight. Hearing Xiyi's hoarse cry, he quickly ran forward to open the door, holding her body that was about to fall, and holding her cold hands. .
The moment he saw her, he felt pain like cutting flesh and beating bones. He asked with red eyes:
"Xiyi, what's wrong with you?"
The pain that had been building up for a long time all came together, and she cried out in tears: "Master Zhang, please call someone to find your wife. She was kidnapped by bandits at the foot of Yuanhong Temple. She is pregnant! I can't bear the pain." !」
"Pregnant!...Pregnant!" Shocking news.
Zhang just said this and ordered: "Come quickly, call all the servants to come quickly and follow me to find my wife!"
Just waiting for someone to answer, my footsteps are in a hurry.
"This is such a big deal, please report it to the King and Queen!"
Zhang Jiyan glanced at Xiangxiang in the corner, and immediately called the servant girl to help her in to rest. Xiyi, being supported, walked all the way through the winding paths and dozens of rockeries and flower ponds, and had just arrived. The place where Wan Yanyong lived.
At this time, Wan Yanyong comforted his wife who was tired from taking care of the house during the day and went to bed. He got up in the middle of the night, put on his fur coat and cotton hat, sat on the sofa and stared at the bouquet of plum blossoms in a daze, holding a pen in his hand. , the ink on the tip of the pen has already condensed, and the rice paper under my hand is stained with large areas of ink.
Just say Jiao Qie and knock on the door: "Your Majesty, I disturb you two late at night. Something happened to Mrs. Li!"
Hearing this, he dropped the pen in his hand, raised his head, and looked out in horror. The waitress who was keeping watch opened the door first, and saw Xiyi rushing in like a headless fly. At this time, she didn't care about etiquette, which shocked Guiyan.
Wanyanyong saw that she could not stand firmly, so he helped her up with his own hands and asked anxiously: "Xiyi, what's wrong with my wife?"
"Your Majesty, my wife has been kidnapped by bandits who don't know where they came from. She is here to celebrate the occasion and she is pregnant with the king's flesh and blood! Your Majesty... I don't know where to go to find my wife... Your Majesty!"
"Pregnant?"
"Yes, more than a month or two!"
"It's ridiculous. Why did no one tell the lonely king about such a huge thing, so the lonely king's women and children were made to suffer such a crime?" He scolded with red eyes and trembling hands.
The imperial concubine put on her clothes and came out from the curtain, looking terrified. Wan Yanyong glanced at her subconsciously and saw her silently lowering her head. He hurried out without saying much.
"Go, call everyone here, and search for everyone in the city!"
It was a cool night, and there was a thin layer of snow in the evening. Qingya woke up from a coma, opening her eyes covered with fine frost. In the blur, she saw with horror that she was lying under a pine tree, surrounded by people. It is full of dense pines and cypresses, but there is no one around.
She shrunk her feet due to the cold, but she felt that her right leg was weak and she lost consciousness due to the cold. The cotton clothes on her body had already been soaked in snow and turned into ice cubes. She reached out and touched her back.
The caked cotton clothes made me shiver and sneeze.
"Xiyi, Xiangxiang..." the hoarse voice shouted.
"Xiyi, Xiangxiang, where are you?"
Just empty.
She was afraid, groping, and stood up unsteadily. She subconsciously picked up one or two stones on the ground. She saw the road in front of her under the dim snow light, and looked around while walking along the road.
She hadn't walked fifty meters when she heard something strange in the pine forest. The sound of rapid footsteps came. She really felt that a group of bandits were coming. In order to save her life, she ran hastily, using her left and right hands to explore the obstacles in front of her. .
The group of five or six strong men, each holding a three- to four-foot-long wooden stick, chased after her. When they saw her running, they quickened their pace and surrounded her.
"What are you going to do? How dare you hurt me even a little bit..."
Before she could finish speaking, those people began to hit her randomly on her shoulders, waist, legs, and back. She knelt weakly on a hard rock, lying on her stomach to protect her lower abdomen - she was not yet three months old. children.
"Who are you..." She was too hurt to speak, so she picked up the stone in her hand and threw it out, hitting one person's calf.
"Ah! You damn bitch, if you dare to hit me, I will show you how powerful you are now!"
The man chased her away and became furious. He covered his injured leg, threw away the stick in his hand, took off his belt and wanted to go and humiliate her, but was stopped by another man: "You're crazy, you don't know who she is. Do you want to lose your head?"
After all, he is a country man with no sense of etiquette or shame. After hearing what he said, he tied up his trousers, spit to the side, pointed at Qingya who was huddled together and said: "This kind of job is really annoying. You asked me to wait for the stick." I can't beat this beautiful lady for once, isn't it to solve the problem? How can a man lay eggs, so a fool has to believe in this superstitious thing!"
"So I asked you to steal this lady quietly. With my seed, won't you be able to solve your worries?"
Another person stopped him again: "Stop talking, you forgot what the master told me," and lowered his voice: "You can even think of such a thing as substituting one thing for another? Ten of your heads are not enough to cut off."
"If I didn't want to make some money to get a wife, I wouldn't take this crappy job!"
"Hurry up, let's get the money and run away!"
Qingya listened to their words in a daze, but didn't know what they meant. She took advantage of a few people talking with their arms crossed and ran away from them, limping through the forest.
Her ankles were dripping with blood from withered thorns, and there were several scratches on her hands. She dragged the bruises and injuries on her body and shed helpless tears. Her right hand was always protecting her abdomen. Traveling in this jungle without direction.
In the past eighteen years, I have never been so scared or helpless.
Seeing that those people were about to catch up, she ran faster and ran to a ravine. When she was in emergency, she didn't see clearly that there was a shallow river below. She lost her footing and rolled down the small cliff. She fell down, her back hit the ice, and she lay unconscious by the river. The broken ice brought up the bottom water, washing her wounds, and her hands were still covering her lower abdomen.
Those people stood on the cliff, at a loss: "Oh no, something... happened!"
"Why are these bitches so stubborn? They have to run away!"
"Go down and take a look?" one person suggested.
One of them was about to go down to take a look when he heard someone running from a distance, shouting: "Brother! Stop it, something big has happened!"
The man talked in detail with these strong men, who were shocked: "What? She is already..."
"That's not bad, let's run away!"
"Yes, I'm going to be beheaded!"
With that said, several people on the shore fled in a hurry, paying no attention to the elegance below.
When Li Qingya woke up again, she was already too stiff to move. She tried her best to take a look at her unharmed lower abdomen, then she felt relieved. She slowly got up from the edge of the glacier, shivering and hid in a bunch of dead trees.
The snow in the sky is getting heavier and heavier, and the cold wave of early spring is soaking into the bones.
, even if she was wrapped in a thick quilt and held a heater in the house, she would still be freezing, not to mention that she was wearing soaked clothes and wounds all over her body in the cold forest.
She was sleepy, her chapped lips stretched weakly, and her eyelids were about to droop, but she clearly understood that she could not sleep at this moment. If she slept like this, both she and the baby in her belly would disappear in this world. So she bit her jade arm that was still conscious, trying to use the last bit of pain to curb the deep sleepiness.
Over and over again, she felt drowsy, so she bit her teeth over and over again, until the blood from her teeth stained her plain clothes, and she was able to stand up with some strength left, and then got out of the bush, helping her awkwardly. Walk along the tree trunk.
Take a walk and take a break.
After a walk, he leaned against a tree trunk and waited for a while.
He looked up to see the flying snow, and then looked down at her slightly bulging belly. Tears burst into his eyes: "My child, my poor child, mother is sorry for you! She will protect you with all her might to make you suffer like this. She will definitely protect you." To protect you!"
What she said seemed to have a familiar feeling. It was what her mother said to her when she was young. She had seen her mother's helplessness for more than ten years. She was now a mother, and she was just like her mother back then.
"Sister, I can't hold it anymore, sister, I miss you so much!" She didn't know what emotion she was in, but she suddenly thought of her mother who died young, and she started crying miserably.
"No, I have to go out, for my mother, for my children!"
With that said, she wiped away her tears again and called Xiyi and Xiangxiang as she walked.
Xiyi and Wanyanyong sent people to search the top and bottom of Yuanhong Temple, leaving only the small hill next to Yuquanfang.
At this time, Wanyanyong, who was rescued without success, was already exhausted, but he still persisted in the search and went up the mountain holding the wooden stick with red eyes.
One of them suddenly interrupted: "Your Majesty, we have been searching for a long time. Madam... Madam must have been persecuted! If this continues..."
Before he could finish speaking, Wan Yanyong pointed at him angrily: "My wife will be fine, if you talk too much, the lonely king will kill you immediately!"
If you only wait for people, they will scare you away.
"Everyone must find my wife tonight, or else we will come to see her!"
Xiyi has never seen him lose his temper like this. Thinking about it, if he didn't love someone deeply, how could he despise everything and only do it for her?
