"I know you can protect me, otherwise I wouldn't go with you. I just went down to say goodbye to Miss Shen to prevent her from following behind secretly."
Ning Wuyan didn't want to have his long-planned counter-murder plan ruined in one fell swoop.
Don't look at the killers of Sangen Pavilion. They may not be able to match the officers and soldiers in archery and defense.
But in terms of intuition, the killers licking blood from the blades are definitely stronger than the officers, soldiers and guards.
Although Zhou Jingxian believed in Ning Wuyan's words, she still worried that he could not convince Shen Youchu.
Just when she hesitated, Shen Youchu was already standing under the car, with one foot on the horse stool.
"Mr. Ning, don't look at me. I'm usually easy to talk to, but when I'm sure of something, even ten cows can't pull me."
Shen Youchu put his hands on his hips and spoke menacingly.
Ever since she knew that not only Jingxian was going to follow, but Grandpa Ning and Jiang Yan were also coming, she knew that this trip was very dangerous.
Even if it is dangerous, she is willing to take this risk with Mr. Ning!
Ning Wuyan lowered his head and looked at Shen Youchu's upturned face, which was full of determination. Naturally, he understood her intentions.
However, he still had to refuse.
"It's not that I won't take you because the road ahead is dangerous, but the people I can use are all here. I hope Miss Shen can stay and help me take care of my family."
"ah?"
Shen Youchu was about to step on the other foot of the horse stool, but when he heard these words, he shrank back silently.
Ning Wuyang said with a wry smile: "Princess Xian said just now that Zhou An has disappeared in the morning. I can't predict where he has gone. But you see, Princess Xian and I are so well prepared. I I think Zhou An is probably out of his mind, and he might want to seize my relatives and blackmail me like the Ye family did."
As soon as these words came out.
Zhou Jingxian felt it was very reasonable.
This is in line with Zhou An's usual insidious approach, and it is also easier to succeed.
"Youchu," Zhou Jingxian jumped down, took Shen Youchu's hand and asked, "Can you help Mr. Ning?"
"I……"
Of course Shen Youchu wanted to help.
But she really wanted to go to Beijing with Mr. Ning. This journey would take a long time. After leaving Jinling, she could still be alone with Mr. Ning...
"Miss Shen, I will leave my family to you."
Ning Wuyang smiled gently.
Smiling so feebly and heartbroken, Shen Youchu made an immediate decision.
"Don't worry, I will take good care of them. If anyone dares to hurt them, I will let them stand and walk!"
Thanks.
Ning Wuyan knew that if he said this, Shen Youchu would definitely give up traveling with him.
But when it was confirmed that Shen Youchu was willing to force herself for him, she couldn't bear it.
"When I return safely, I will accompany you wherever Miss Shen wants to go."
"real?"
Shen Youchu didn't expect such a good thing.
Then she had to ask Juxiang to find out where there was fun in Jinling while Mr. Ning was away.
When the time comes, I will take Mr. Ning with me and play there for three days and three nights.
Thinking of this, Shen Youchu took the initiative to get off the horse stool and gestured in the direction of the horse's head.
"Mr. Ning, Jingxian, I will see you off not far away. Please be careful on the way."
"Um."
Zhou Jingxian nodded heavily and looked down at the sharp knife hidden on her toes.
She is also ready and always ready.
I will ensure that Mr. Ning is safe and sound.
We already had an appointment for another day, so there was no need to say goodbye.
Shen Youchu stood there, watching the convoy disappear from sight, waving gently with his arms raised.
It wasn't until the sound of horse hoofbeats in her ears could no longer be heard that she turned around and asked Ji Jin, who was always there but silent, "Jin'er, why didn't you mention it to Mr. Ning? Did you go out of your way to invite him?" Where is the uncle from Qin Tianjian who is responsible for calculating the weather and safety for Mr. Ning?"
"Telling some of the results may affect Mr. Ning's judgment. It's just useless work. Unlike Youchu, you can ask the Shen family guards to help take care of everyone in the Ning family, so I won't talk about it."
Ji Jin put his hands together and bowed in the direction of Hanshan Temple.
Shen Youchu felt that Jin'er was still too low-key, but she also felt that there was some truth to this.
Then they followed Ji Jin's example and worshiped devoutly in the direction of Hanshan Temple.
"I want to copy the scriptures and Taoism before Mr. Ning returns safely. Youchu, are you free?"
"have."
Even if Shen Youchu wasn't interested in those things, he still found them boring.
But if doing so would bring Mr. Ning back as soon as possible, she would do anything.
…
Creak, creak, creak~~
The carriage that Ning Wuyan was riding in was guarded in the center of the convoy, moving quickly and steadily along the official road he set towards Lai'an County.
In less than an hour, they had traveled more than twenty miles.
Since leaving the jurisdiction of Jinling City, the speed of the car has slowed down.
When Ning Wuyang closed his eyes and fell asleep, he could hear the order from Ning Feng in front of him sending out scouts to investigate.
only.
The scouts just followed the established route and explored the way forward.
Zhou An, on the other hand, would never use two strategies to ambush him somewhere, otherwise he would not leave in a hurry half a day in advance.
After walking for more than forty miles, Ning Wuyan calculated that the only intersection with a rural road in Jinling Mansion was only ten miles away, and he slowly opened his eyes.
Then they saw that Zhou Jingxian was sitting near the car window. From time to time, she lifted the corner of the car curtain and looked out, observing the topography and the passing conditions.
Her body was as tight as a heavy bow ready to shoot arrows at any time.
As long as there is a slight movement, she will not let it go.
Ning Wuyang felt that if Zhou Jingxian walked with him like this, by the time they arrived in the capital, almost everyone would be dead.
Good thing.
She only had to be careful for a few hours.
"Princess Xian, Grandpa and the others are outside. Don't worry too much."
Ning Wuyan took out the food box prepared by the second aunt and the others from the coffee table.
He opened the food box, distributed the fruits inside to Yun Fei who was guarding the other window, and threw an apricot plum to Zhou Jingxian.
Zhou Jingxian caught it without looking back, put it to her mouth and took a bite, frowning slightly, and finally looked back at Ning Wuyan.
"sour."
"Really? Then drink some water to calm down the shock."
Ning Wuyan poured a cup of herbal tea and offered it with both hands.
The tea ripples slightly.
Zhou Jingxian had no choice but to sit upright and take it, and drank it all in one gulp. Just as she was about to readjust her posture, she heard Ning Wuyao ask: "How high is Zhou An's status in the emperor's heart?"
"He is very good at pleasing Grandpa Huang, and he also knows what kind of children Grandpa Huang likes. That's why before Uncle Jin Wang gave birth to his son, Grandpa Huang specially named him the Young Marquis. This is a higher level than the crown prince."
Zhou Jingxian didn't say anything about the royal family.
He didn't even answer Ning Wuyan's question accurately.
But Ning Wuhuang already had the answer in his heart.
Just kiss each other.
In other words, no matter whether Prince Jin, the prince, would die in the fight for the crown prince, Zhou An, the young prince, would still have the same status.
"No wonder Zhou An is so domineering. I see that the guards around him are all very skilled. The guards who gave first aid that day were also proficient in medical skills. Since he pays so much attention to me, his guards should tell him how important tobacco is."
Zhou Jingxian felt that Mr. Ning had said this before, but when she heard it this time, she felt it was different from the last time she heard it.
He couldn't help but hold the dagger in his hand tightly, ready to meet Zhou An at any time, so he crippled him, packed them up and sent them back to the capital together.
no.
Be calm.
Just when Zhou Jingxian wanted to calm down the murderous intention that surged deep in her heart, the speed of the carriage slowed down significantly.
"Princess Xian, Mr. Ning, there seems to be a lot of people riding horses at night on the other side of the field. I don't know whether they are merchants or officers and soldiers. Colonel Ning has asked me to slow down temporarily and has sent scouts to investigate."
When Zhou Jingxian heard this, she hurriedly walked to the front of the car, opened a corner of the car curtain and looked out.
Ning Wuyang tilted his head and looked at the official road and the rural road that were about to merge not far outside the car curtain. He silently took out the red gold sword given by the emperor from under the coffee table and got very energetic.
"Yunfei, grab your weapon."
