After Gao married the prince, the sick and weak concubine lost her horse

Chapter 263 263 Cooperation
"Master, we are here."

Lin Lu, who was driving, lowered his voice and reported to the carriage behind him.

Shen Qingci opened the curtain and looked, the carriage stopped in a dense forest.

Without waiting for Shen Qingci to ask, Lin Yunzheng first explained: "Cross this forest and follow the path along the cliff. There is a village. I arranged Cousin Baoqin there. No one should have found it for the time being."

"I'm afraid there are still tails behind, so you go with Lin Fu first, and the carriage continues to move forward to distract those people."

Under the guise of protecting Wang Baoqin and not wanting her to be hurt by Sheng Tingjing or Yao Zhaofeng and others, Lin Yunzheng can hide the two of them openly.

Of course, on the surface, he "quietly" placed Shen Qingci and Wang Baoqin in another place.

This is already the safest and most appropriate arrangement he can make now.

Even though Shen Qingci wanted to do her part, but the matter has come to this point, she can only respond first, she can't go back and look for Sheng Tingjing again.

Seeing Lin Yunzheng's usual cynical appearance, before getting out of the car, Shen Qingci couldn't help exhorting: "Be careful."

The two have played together since childhood, and she knows his temperament, which is the most impulsive and willful.

Moreover, since he was a child, he was admired by the stars and grew up. He was not scheming, not good at city government, and rarely saw the dark side of human nature. He will always be that sunny, straightforward and fearless little county king.

Shen Qingci was really worried.

Once the news of the accident at Qiankuling comes, Sheng Tingjing will definitely think of him immediately after thinking about the elite soldiers who fell from the sky, and contacting Lin Yunzheng who suddenly appeared.

He is the most dangerous.

In addition, there is Yao Zhaofeng and Yao Wenbai father and son who hate him to the bone and stare at him.

If Sheng Tingjing didn't stop him, Yao Zhaofeng might do anything to him.

Shen Qingci was worried about him, but Lin Yunzheng waved his hands and said indifferently: "Don't worry, even if he finds out, if the misfortune falls into his hands, he won't kill me."

Lin Yunzheng's words are not exaggerated.

Sheng Tingjing is not a fool, killing him can only vent his anger for a while, but he can be used as a hostage, but it can also be used to contain the royal family and the Lin family, and even deal with the [-] soldiers he brought.

The advantages of keeping Lin Yunzheng alive far outweigh the disadvantages.

"Having said that, it's not a good thing, and I don't know how much I will suffer."

"As long as you see that the situation is not good, you must evacuate immediately, don't be brave."

Even though the time was urgent, Shen Qingci couldn't help but worry for him when he saw his indifferent appearance.

"Although it is said to be up to seven days, I reckon that maybe your third cousin may not wait until then to make a move."

Shen Qingci dipped his hand in the tea, and drew the most critical points on the small table.

"It is obviously impossible to take down Qianku Ridge without disturbing Yunzhou City at all. Even if there is a pretense of bandits descending the mountain, it is very risky. I think that with his temperament, it is very likely that he will use his tricks."

"Since you can't hide it, just keep it secret."

Said, Shen Qingci pointed to the Luofeng Pavilion ten miles away from Yunzhou City.

"The terrain here is low-lying, and it is easy to ambush on both sides."

"At that time, someone deliberately revealed the news to Sheng Tingjing. With his temperament of hating Sheng Tingye, he will never let go of such a good opportunity to outflank and suppress him."

"The most important thing is that he will not see the elite soldiers who have worked so hard to raise in Qiankuling destroyed, and he will definitely send troops to reinforce them."

"As long as he leads the troops out of the city, the rest of the matter will be much easier."

But this also means that Lin Yunzheng is in a very dangerous situation.

Although Qiankuling will definitely contact Lin Yunzheng before the action, but there will be chaos at that time, if there is a delay in the news, or Lin Yunzheng is caught by something and cannot get out in time...

"Be careful!"

Because of worry, Shen Qingci inevitably babbled a few more words.

Lin Yunzheng rubbed his ears, and said with a look of hesitation: "I know, I know, thanks to the fact that you are a girl, otherwise, I don't think your ability to march and set up an army can be regarded as inferior to the position of the general of the town. gone."

Shen Qingci couldn't help but give him a blank look: "What's wrong with the girl's family? If necessary, she can still go to battle to kill the enemy, and women don't give way to men."

Lin Yunzheng hurriedly begged for mercy: "Okay, okay, I know I was wrong, my Awan... Oh no, my third cousin is the number one heroine in the world."

Shen Qingci was amused by him and burst out laughing, but thinking of the danger ahead, she still couldn't help telling: "I'm serious, don't be foolish, if something goes wrong, leave immediately, be careful!"

Hearing this, Lin Yunzheng chuckled and jokingly said: "Those who know you know you are my third cousin, but those who don't know think you are my third cousin!"

Shen Qingci: "..."

This guy really needs a fight.

At the moment of life and death, she was worried about him, because he was still playing tricks.

However, his jokes dispelled the original dullness and depression a lot.

Shen Qingci didn't say much anymore, she waved her hand, turned over and jumped off the carriage.

Time was running out, and neither of them delayed any longer.

Shen Qingci followed Lin Fu into the woods and walked towards the village Lin Yunzheng mentioned, while Lin Yunzheng and Lin Lu continued to run forward with the carriage.

There was a heavy snowfall last night, and a thick layer had accumulated in the forest. Shen Qingci and Lin Fu had to clear away the footprints as they walked.

So, when we arrived at the place, the sky was completely dark.

It is a small village surrounded by mountains and rivers.

In the family where Wang Baoqin settled, a blind grandma who was over [-] years old lived with her granddaughter Xianglan.

During the flood last year, my grandma lost her son and daughter-in-law, and she cried blindly.

The hemp rope is cut at the delicate point, and bad luck finds the poor.

However, Xianglan, who is as beautiful as a flower, was spotted by Yao Wenbo when she went to the city to receive relief food, and was then taken into the mansion by him...

The defiled Xianglan wanted to throw herself into the well with hatred, but she couldn't worry about her blind grandmother at home.

Therefore, she endured the humiliation and survived.

The grandfather and grandson hated the Yao family and Yao Wenbo to the bone.

This is also one of the main reasons why Lin Yunzheng chose this family to settle down.

He didn't ask anyone to reveal Wang Baoqin's identity, but only said that she was the girl who had just been rescued from Yao Wenbai's hands.

The grandfather and grandson immediately agreed, and because they were worried about being approached by Yao Wenbai's people, they took the initiative to conceal Wang Baoqin's whereabouts.

A small farmhouse courtyard, the nearest resident is half a mile away, and the courtyard door is closed, which just cuts off the inquiring eyes of outsiders.

Moreover, after the catastrophe, the grandparent and grandson rarely went out to meet people, and the people in the village would not notice anything wrong.

After briefly explaining the situation to Shen Qingci, after sending her to the place, Lin Fu hid his body and went to guard the only way into the village.

And Shen Qingci also took advantage of the darkness and knocked on the door of the small courtyard when there was no one around.

The one who came out to open the door was Pandan with braids, oval face, and willow-leaf eyebrows. She looked pretty, but her big eyes didn't have the vigor and vitality that a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old should have.

Shen Qingci saw the lifelessness.

After briefly explaining her intention of coming, the cautious Xianglan did not let Shen Qingci come in, but first denied that there was such a person in the family, then closed the door and turned to Wang Baoqin to explain the situation to Wang Baoqin in the room, and confirmed Shen Qingci's identity. Just let her in.

Here, Shen Qingci only said that she was Wang Baoqin's younger sister, and that someone brought her news, so she came here on purpose.

Perhaps because of the experience of sympathizing with Wang Baoqin, the mother-in-law and grandson took good care of Wang Baoqin.

Hearing that Shen Qingci was coming, Wang Baoqin came out to greet her directly.

"Qingqing!"

As soon as they met each other, Wang Baoqin's eyes turned red.

Although she also lived in a brothel, all she faced was beatings and scolding from the procuress who wanted her to submit, and she had never been bullied by outside men.

But today... If Lin Yunzheng takes half a step at night...

Up to now Wang Baoqin has been like a frightened bird, looking lost, until she saw Shen Qingci again.

Familiar faces and familiar talents finally gave her a sense of security and solidity.

Shen Qingci hugged her back and coaxed her softly: "It's okay, it's okay."

Wang Baoqin leaned on Shen Qingci's shoulder and burst into tears.

When she had vented enough, Shen Qingci said angrily: "I'm sorry, if you didn't help me, you wouldn't have been tricked by him."

"I knew earlier..."

Even at the risk of being discovered by Yao Qingruan, Wang Baoqin cannot be put in danger.

However, Wang Baoqin shook her head, not blaming Shen Qingci at all.

"I don't blame you. That day in Yixing Courtyard, I felt something was wrong with the way he looked at me. I just didn't expect him to be so blatant... Since he has his eyes on me, even if it wasn't today, he would still be here Look elsewhere."

"I was lucky enough to meet the county king."

Speaking of this, Wang Baoqin suddenly walked away from Shen Qingci's shoulder, and she said nervously, "By the way, is he alright?"

Wang Baoqin had heard about Lin Yunzheng's temperament, and was afraid that he would cause trouble on impulse.

No matter how noble his status is, the Yao family is a local snake in this Yuncheng.

Although Wang Baoqin doesn't understand government affairs, it's not that he doesn't understand the "sophistication of the world" among these aristocratic families.

In order to reassure Wang Baoqin, Shen Qingci patted her on the shoulder, pretending to be relaxed and said: "Don't worry, he's not only fine, but he also eunuched that bastard, which can be regarded as eliminating evil for the people."

Hearing this, Wang Baoying was startled suddenly.

Before she could recover, she suddenly heard a bang.

The two followed the sound, only to see Xiang Lan standing at the door with a pale face after returning from fetching hot water.

The porcelain basin in her hand had fallen to the ground, and the basin of water she had just fetched was spilled everywhere.

But she didn't seem to realize it, she just looked at Shen Qingci in a daze, her lips trembling and said: "What did you just say?"

She just entered the door, only in time to hear the last sentence.

Seeing her like this, Shen Qingci's heart was also sour, and she comforted: "Yao Wenbai has been castrated, and he can no longer harm other girls in the future."

"Moreover, this is just the beginning. In the future, someone will surely give justice to those murdered sisters."

As soon as the words fell, Xianglan was shocked, she took a step back, and suddenly staggered and squatted on the ground covering her cheeks.
Tears flowed down her fingers.

She didn't know if it was because she was crying too hard, or because she hated her so much, she couldn't stop shaking.

Wang Baoqin stepped forward, knelt down and hugged her, just like what Shen Qingci said to her just now.

"It's alright, it's alright."

"Everyone will be fine in the future."

As she said that, Wang Baoqin couldn't control herself, and hugged Xianglan again and cried heartily.

After crying, the two of them were in a much better mood.

Xianglan wiped away her tears, didn't even bother to pick up the porcelain basin, and was about to run to tell the news to her grandmother who lived in the east room.

Wang Baoqin went to fetch hot water by himself, and after washing up, he dragged Shen Qingci to sit by the bed and talk about himself.

Shen Qingci lived in this small courtyard.

The days that followed were extremely peaceful.

Shen Qingci cooks tea around the stove every day, listening to the wind and watching the snow fall, the small mountain village seems to be isolated from the world.

The tranquility here is in sharp contrast with the rainy mountains and rains inside and outside Yunzhou City.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

This morning, Shen Qingci was thinking about it with a box of medicinal powder when he heard Xianglan who had just come back from picking herbs outside exclaimed: "There is a war! There is a war outside!"

I don't know whether it was because of the fright and blow too much, or because of the wind and cold, these days Wang Baoqin's body and spirit seemed to be weakening day by day.

The nearest barefoot doctor is in a small town ten miles away.

Shen Qingci originally wanted to ask Lin Fu to grab the medicine quietly, but Wang Baoqin flatly refused, because when Lin Yunzheng asked someone to send her over, he specifically told her to be careful to hide her whereabouts, once exposed, it would easily lead to murder. What a disaster, she was afraid of getting involved with the outside world, so she asked someone to come to her door and implicate Shen Qingci.

So I would never call a doctor for anything, let alone ask others to get medicine.

Xianglan, who usually doesn't like to go out, couldn't stand it anymore. She carried a basket and went out early in the morning. She wanted to go to the back mountain to collect some herbs for Wang Baoqin, but she never thought that while walking on the road, she heard the villagers screaming everywhere.

"There's a war outside!"

Pandan couldn't care less about herbs, and ran back with a basket in her hand.

"Grandmother, two girls, there is a war outside, and everyone ran to the back mountain to hide, let's run away too!"

Because she was running so fast, she was out of breath when she spoke.

Shen Qingci suppressed his nervousness, and asked curiously: "Have you heard that there was a war?"

Panting heavily, Xianglan nodded and said: "It is said that the bandits from Qiankuling killed them down the mountain, just in time to meet the army sent by the imperial court to suppress the bandits, and those bandits were driven back in the direction of Yunzhou City. I think it will come to us soon."

Shen Qingci gave a pause to the hand holding the medicine powder box.

Although the time was right, it was slightly different from what she had expected.

Not sure what went wrong.

Moreover, for such a big matter, Lin Fu didn't send her any news.

Just as he was thinking, the courtyard door that was just closed by Xianglan was suddenly slapped open.

"Girl, follow me and leave quickly."

Lin Fu was shot by an arrow in his shoulder, the arrow hadn't been pulled out, and blood was still oozing out.

The bright red blood dripped all the way, until the white snow was stained with red plums.

　The latest update is really hip-pull, I'm ashamed.

　　One is because of some things in reality that disturbed the mind, coupled with mundane affairs, you can also see that my latest update time is very messy, even at two or three o'clock in the morning, I am really sorry, just these two After a few days, I will make up for it.

　　The second is also because of Calvin, the previous foreshadowing should be shaken out one by one. I was afraid that it would be a bit messy to write out in a ball, so I wrote slowly. Thank you for your tolerance. Here is a special mention of Wang Baoqin’s line, Useful, useful, useful (someone backstage complained that the description of Qingzhou Wangjia and Wang Baoqin is too procrastinated and cannot be spoiled, but it can be said with certainty that she is a very important lead).

　　Speaking of reality, because my grandma passed away some time ago, my grandpa couldn't bear the blow and suddenly became demented, in a trance, and sometimes he didn't recognize people. The two of them had been arguing all their lives. , but this is the situation at the end of life... It is really embarrassing. After talking so much nonsense, in fact, I just express my feelings. I hope that the treasures will live in the present and cherish the people in front of them.
