Red Mansion, Ningfu Scholarly Family

Chapter 299 Falling into the water
……

While Zhao Quan was still thinking, Liu Xianglian had already arrived in front of him and flew onto his horse.

Now the two of them are riding together.

It was very embarrassing, a sharp sword was across his neck.

Zhao Quan is now regretting to the core.

Can't you just stay at home? Anyway, if you catch someone, the credit will be yours, so why do you have to join in the fun?

"Master Zhao, we meet again."

Liu Xianglian said with a smile.

No matter who Liu Xianglian was, he was smiling, but Zhao Quan could not feel Liu Xianglian's kindness at all. Instead, he felt a chill down his spine.

"Brother Liu, let's talk it out. I know you must have been wronged, so as soon as we met, I ordered them not to hurt you." Zhao Quan suddenly had an idea and said with a slight turn of his eyes.

"hehe."

Liu Xianglian smiled again and gently moved the sword across Zhao Quan's neck.

Suddenly, Zhao Quan felt his neck was not cold, but slightly painful, and then a warm current flowed down his neck.

Surprisingly, there was blood!
"Master Liu, spare my life."

Zhao Quan was so frightened that his face turned pale and his body was trembling. He said, "I would go through fire and water for the emperor, but when it comes to my life, forget it."

Nothing is more important than your own life!
"Master Zhao, I think you are smart. If you don't want to be beheaded, tell your people to get out of here immediately."

Zhao Quan nodded hurriedly and glared at his subordinates: "Assholes, this is not Liu Xianglian, this is my friend, get out of here right now."

"Yes Yes."

The Jinyiwei were like being pardoned and they fled in a hurry.

Zhao Quan: “…”

Really obedient.

I’m done!
He is the only one left now. Will Liu Xianglian let him go?
At the critical moment, someone suddenly stood up!
"Traitor, let my master go!"

The person who spoke was a young man, wearing a brocade robe that made him look particularly smart, holding a sword in his waist, looking majestic.

Zhao Quan vaguely remembered that this was a centurion, and his name seemed to be Jin Quanbao...

Woohoo.

If he can escape this disaster, he must be promoted and trained to become a confidant!

Liu Xianglian looked at the man in surprise and felt that he was a good player, but now was not the time to compete with others.

"Don't worry, I will let your master go, but not now. You can ride ahead and lead the way. Once I am out of the city gate and safe, I will let him go."

"it is good!"

Jin Quanbao didn't waste any time, he pulled the horse beside him and flew up.

"follow me!"

Zhao Quan was very moved
From now on, Jin Quanbao is my brother!
……

Liu Xianglian did not break his promise. When they were twenty miles outside the city, he kicked Zhao Quan off his horse and ran away. He also took the purse from Zhao Quan and smiled before leaving.

"Haha, Lord Zhao, thank you for your generosity."

Zhao Quan ignored Liu Xianglian.

He is in pain now.

I don’t know if Liu Xianglian did it on purpose, but there was a big rock where he kicked him down, and it hit his waist.

"Sir, are you okay?"

Jin Quanbao did not chase after him, but quickly dismounted to check Zhao Quan's injuries.

Zhao Quan panted and said, "Quick, help me find a carriage. I'm afraid my waist is going to break."

"My lord, hold on!"

"I'm going to find someone right now."

Although Jin Quanbao seemed anxious on the surface, he was already thinking about whether he should take the opportunity to kill him, since he could frame Liu Xianglian anyway.

But he quickly dismissed this idea.

He is only a centurion now, and even if Zhao Quan dies, he won't get much. Instead, it will benefit several thousand-householder commanders of the Jinyiwei.

It would be better to curry favor with Zhao Quan.

Maybe you can be promoted to Jinyi Qianhu.

By then, Master, the Eldest Young Master and Junior Sister Xiaoxiao will surely look upon him with new eyes, right?
"Sir, the carriage is coming!"

Jin Quanbao quickly found a carriage.

"Brothers!"

Zhao Quan held Jin Quanbao's hand and said with emotion: "Brother, this time it is all thanks to you. Don't worry, from now on in the Jinyiwei, if I eat a bite of meat, you will drink a bite of soup. Go to the yamen later to get two taels of silver to go out for a drink." Zhao Quanbao was overjoyed.

"Thank you for your cultivation, sir!"

But I thought to myself: This is really a trap.

The eldest son always gives out fifty taels of silver as a New Year reward.

Although money cannot buy absolute loyalty, without money, your subordinates will not have enough food to eat and clothes to wear, and your family will not be harmonious. How can you talk about loyalty?
Jia Rong knew very well that he lacked the power of a king, so he could only settle for the second best and provide sufficient material foundation for the people who worked for him.

Interests determine everything.

……

"Haha, here comes another one."

Jia Rong happily pulled the fish up. Because fishing was prohibited in Xiangguo Temple, the fish in the pond were big and fat, each weighing at least five or six pounds.

"Crackling."

The fish entered the prepared porcelain jar and started jumping inside.

"Oh no! Rong Ge'er is going to surpass us." Xichun said with some concern.

Tanchun said seriously, "It's not that we are going to exceed it, but it has already exceeded the total number of fish caught by the four of us."

Xichun counted on her fingers: "I caught one, Second Sister caught two, Third Sister caught one, and Lin girl... well, she hasn't caught anything yet, it looks like she's going to fail. Rong'er has already caught five."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zijuan exclaimed.

"I have a girl!"

Lin Daiyu also cheered up.

"Quick, pull the fishing rod quickly, don't let the fish escape!"

"Be careful."

"Ahh! The fish is too big."

Zijuan struggled to move forward.

"Zijuan, be careful!"

“Ah… plop.”

Zijuan was pulled forward by the fish for two steps and suddenly fell into the fish pond.

Everyone had never seen such a situation before, and they panicked and didn't know what to do. Lin Daiyu was so anxious that she leaned forward and stretched out her hand.

"Zijuan, hurry up and catch me."

"Woo, woo, help."

The water in the pond was quite deep, and Zijuan was already panicking. She was floundering in the water, sinking deeper and deeper.

"Let me do it!"

Jia Rong gently pulled Lin Daiyu's arm and stepped forward. He could swim and his skills were pretty good.

But that was in the past life.

For safety reasons, Jia Rong first threw the bamboo stool on which Lin Daiyu was sitting into the water, and then jumped in.

"do not want!"

"Brother Rong!"

"what!"

Everyone was so frightened that their faces turned pale, especially Lin Daiyu, whose eyes turned red.

Rong Ge'er, why are you so stupid...

How can I jump down by myself?

What should I do?
Just when Jia Rong jumped down, Xiao Xiao and her senior sister heard the news and ran over.

Xiao Xiao jumped in without saying a word.

Senior Sister Mu thought about it and didn't jump in.

The main thing was that she saw that Jia Rong could swim, and Xiao Xiao could too, and Jia Rong had prepared a bamboo stool, which was enough to save people.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Inside the lake.

Zijuan hugged Jia Rong's neck tightly with her arms.

"Loosen up first!"

Jia Rong struggled to pry Zijuan's hands apart and took a breath. Fortunately, he had just brought in a bamboo stool, otherwise it would be hard to say what would have happened.

No wonder so many people sacrifice themselves to save others, it is really too difficult.
