Power ministers always make things difficult for me

Chapter 161: They even dare to rob my horse

In the carriage, Xingluo was too weak and her face was pale, with her small brows tightly furrowed. Pei Qi was sitting beside her and could only wipe her with a half-wet handkerchief over and over again, hoping that she would feel better.

Pei Qi could never have imagined that the person who would save Rongli in the end would be the little Xingluo.

The curtain at the door was opened, Xi Qing carried the medicine box and mounted Ma Chao, sat opposite Pei Qi, looked down at Xing Luo and then met Pei Qi's gaze.

"It takes a lot of internal energy to remove the heart blood. I don't think this girl will wake up for a while. Rongli is fine now. Leave this to me."

Pei Qi nodded, glanced at Xing Luo worriedly, and then got off the carriage quietly.

The sudden change forced everyone's journey to be postponed for a few days. Baili Qingming went to Jinjiang first because he was too worried about Yu Shengyan's condition.

The rest of the people chose to spend the night here and make a decision after Rongli and Xingluo woke up.

In the eerie and silent night, there are occasional empty bird calls. In the cold winter night, only the fire in front of you can provide a little warmth.

There were three hundred shadow guards and Rong Qin's subordinates guarding around him, so Pei Qi sat in front of the fire without fear of encountering any danger.

The forest path was winding and dark. A thin figure with wounds all over his body walked slowly but did not dare to stop.

This person was Yun Lian who escaped from the imperial capital.

She held on to her last breath and ran wildly on the road leading to Jinjiang, just to catch up with Pei Qi as soon as possible.

Her horse had collapsed from exhaustion in the previous city, and the wounds all over her body had turned blue due to the cold weather, but no one could help her in this desolate forest.

"cough……"

She coughed lightly, paused briefly, and leaned against the tree beside her, breathing heavily.

In the dim light, she caught a glimpse of some light in the distance, and her originally dim eyebrows and eyes unconsciously brightened a little.

Someone... that's great.

Maybe they will have horses on hand...

Yun Lian perked up, concealed her body and breath, and walked over by holding on to the dead trees. She moved lightly and slowly pulled out the short blade at her waist, trying not to be noticed by those people.

Tu You held the sword, leaned against the tree, closed his eyes and rested, while feeling the movements around him.

As secret guards, they never sleep soundly and can easily notice the slightest movement.

include……

The person who was approaching stealthily from behind.

Tu You raised a hint of mockery at the corner of his mouth, wanting to see what she was going to do.

The next second, a cold short blade was placed on his neck from behind.

With a weak female voice.

"do not move."

Tu You slowly opened his sharp eyes and glanced down at the short blade in front of him. The men beside him all drew their knives and prepared to take action, but were dissuaded by his eyes.

Seeing this, Yun Lian realized that the person she was holding hostage was the leader of this group of people, and she couldn't help but look happy.

She saw the horse in the distance, her eyes brightened, and she subconsciously moved the short blade in her hand closer to Tu You's neck: "I don't want to hurt anyone, give me a horse, and I'll leave immediately."

Such weak threats were useless to others, let alone Tu You.

But why did Tu You feel that he seemed to have heard this voice somewhere before?

Unfortunately, he didn't have time to think too much.

Tu You raised his hand slightly, touched the blade at his neck, and touched the tip of the knife thoughtfully.

"Don't move!" Yun Lian saw him move, tightened her dagger, and warned in a deep voice.

Tu You pretended not to hear anything. After a cold sneer, he turned his wrist instantly and pinched the short blade in Yun Lian's hand with two fingers. With just a little force, he broke Yun Lian's weapon.

Yun Lian thought to herself that something was wrong and wanted to step back to keep some distance from him, but it was too late.

Tu You grabbed her wrist, pulled the unsteady-footed person in front of him, and threw her hard to the ground.

He glanced at Yun Lian who was kneeling on the ground with contempt, then squatted down and stared at her lowered head provocatively: "You dare to rob my horse."

"Do you have a life to ride?"

Yun Lian gritted her teeth and realized that the person she had offended was not a good person. Her fingertips moved almost imperceptibly, and the silver needles hidden inside were ready to go.

only……

However, Tu You noticed the subtle movement. He held the sword that had not yet been unsheathed, tapped it on the ground next to Yun Lian's hand, and warned: "I advise you not to act rashly, or you will suffer before you die."

"You!" Seeing that all her actions were discovered, Yun Lian couldn't help but feel a little angry. She raised her head and wanted to quibble, but when she saw the face in front of her clearly, the words on her lips stopped abruptly.

"why you?"

That treacherous official’s secret guard…

Why is he here?

Tu You was also a little surprised. He never expected it to be her.

Wasn't this woman assigned to stay at the Imperial Master's Residence? Why did she come here?

He also got injured.

It looks like he escaped...

Thinking about this, Tu You put away his sword and asked, "Why are you here? Is someone chasing you?"

"Do you care?"

Yun Lian turned her head away, she did not forget that her master and that treacherous minister were sworn enemies.

She would naturally not give him a good look.

Tu You was so angry that he laughed, and subconsciously wanted to throw this woman away, but reason stopped him.

The fact that this woman can appear here must mean something has happened in the imperial capital. She might have some useful information.

Let’s take her to see the Imperial Master first.

Just as Yun Lian was thinking about how to get out of Tu You's hand, she suddenly felt a tightness around her waist, and then the head was spinning. When she came to her senses, she was already being carried on Tu You's shoulders.

Yun Lian struggled subconsciously: "What are you doing! Let me go!"

Although she didn't move very much due to her weakness, Tu You still frowned and pinched her leg lightly as a warning.

"be honest."

"Aren't you here to see your master? I'll take you there."

"If you move again, I'll throw you out to die."

"Damn you!" Yun Lian wanted to scold him, but she immediately behaved herself after hearing the news from the National Master.

But she didn’t quite understand why the Imperial Master was with this group of people?
Could it be that... the national teacher was also captured by that treacherous minister?
……

At this time, Pei Qi was sitting by the fire, waiting for news from Rongli, worrying about Xingluo, and thinking about Jinjiang.

She raised her eyes and caught a glimpse of Tu You walking towards her with a thin figure on his shoulder.

Pei Qi couldn't help but cast a questioning look: "What's wrong?"

"This girl is..."

After hearing Pei Qi's voice, Yun Lian immediately burst into tears with excitement. She didn't know where she found the strength to climb down from Tu You, and ran towards Pei Qi, staggering.

"National Master... I finally found you!"

"Yun Lian?"

When Pei Qi saw her, he stood up quickly after a brief surprise and caught her, who was covered in scars but still running towards him. He grabbed her shoulders and looked her up and down, his eyes full of heartache: "Why are you here? And you are in such a state?"

"What happened? Who hurt you?"

"Where's Huang Liao? Are you here alone?"

Yun Lian was sobbing and speaking incoherently. She wanted to tell her everything about the imperial capital, but she couldn't utter a complete sentence because of the unstoppable sobbing and grievance.

Pei Qi hugged her tightly and patted her back gently to calm her down: "Forget it, let's talk about it later, you should have a good rest first."

After saying that, she turned to look at Xu Chi: "Please, get me a new cotton-padded coat."

Xu Chi responded: "Yes."

Yun Lian cried so hard, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances she had suffered along the way.

Tu You hated to see people crying, so he immediately avoided it and turned to walk towards Xing Luo's carriage.

Not long after, Xi Qing was taken out of the car by him.
