Chapter 25
Not long after, the rain of arrows began to stop.

Immediately after, a group of troops came out, and the general at the head cupped his hands towards Shen Muxue's sedan chair and said, "The bandits have disturbed Miss Shen, and I hope you will forgive me."

Shen Muxue heard the words and listened carefully to the movement outside.

After confirming that it was safe, he tidied up his bun and clothes, took a deep breath, and then slowly stepped out of the car.

She glanced at the arrows all over the ground and the dense swarms on the sedan chair, but she still felt lingering fear, and her heart trembled uncontrollably.

Qinglian and Moyu rushed to meet her and stood by her side.

Shen Muxue was furious, she pointed at the person who came to rescue in front of her: "You Yunyang is this kind of hospitality?"

"There aren't even any rules in the countryside. If Miss Ben makes a mistake, you won't be able to bear it all."

Displeasure flashed across the eyes of the leading general, his complexion was somewhat gloomy, and his eyes were gloomy.

Qinglian's heart shuddered, hearing her speak to him in such a tone, and seeing his face change.

Regardless of the injury on his arm, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute the general, "General, my lady is too frightened to speak freely, please don't take it to heart."

Mo Yu looked sideways, and his eyes fell on Qinglian's wound.

The leading general regained his composure, hummed lightly, and waved his hands to order the scene to be cleaned up.

Apart from the injuries of the two servants and Qinglian, there were no other casualties. After the arrow was pulled out, the sedan chair was riddled with holes.

The general proposed to go to the town to change his favored son, but Shen Muxue refused without hesitation: "No, I just want to get to my uncle's house as soon as possible. What's all this way?"

After the words fell, she twisted her waist and got on the sedan chair, her attitude and posture were all arrogant.

Qinglian covered her wound and smiled apologetically, "Thank you General for saving your life today."

He ignored it, walked straight to the river, and looked at Shen Qianxia with slightly narrowed eyes: "Are you Miss Shen San?"

Shen Qianxia nodded slightly, "General."

This person is General Pingnan Mo Ting, not very handsome, rather rough and gloomy, he is a capable general under Rong Ye's command.

When Rong Ye had already ascended the throne, he married Rong Ye's half-sister, Princess Qingyun.

Ordinarily, Mo Ting should have made a lot of contributions, and after becoming a son-in-law, he should be able to rise to the top, but Rong Ye didn't reuse him after that.

Mo Ting also gradually faded out of everyone's sight, with the title of son-in-law for nothing, and started to eat soft food.

Princess Qingyun is kind to others, often haunts the East Palace, and has a good relationship with Rong Ye.

Qingyun was polite to her, but she was full of hostility towards Shen Muxue.

Shen Qianxia was in a complicated mood. Mo Ting and Rong Ye had a very close relationship, so he couldn't offend him at this time, but he didn't want to cling to her either.

For such a person who is neither an enemy nor a friend, she is still cautious in her heart.

The atmosphere was silent for a moment, Mo Ting didn't say much, but cupped his hands and said to him: "Since Third Miss Shen is fine, I will take my leave."

After the words fell, he quickly retreated with everyone. Although there were only a dozen people in the team, it could be seen that he was rigorous.

Shen Qianxia was slightly taken aback. With her current status, it seemed that he didn't need to be so polite.

Mochizuki breathed a sigh of relief, and sighed, "That general just now was so scary."

Scary?
Shen Qianxia's eyes were cold, and her voice was dull: "Some people look fierce, but they are not necessarily villains, and some people look dignified, but they are not necessarily gentlemen."

Mochizuki was dumbfounded, looking at her half-understood, her 14-year-old young age gave off a feeling that did not match her age.

After a little rectification, the carriage set off immediately.

Shen Muxue ordered not to rest any longer, not to stay in the inn, and must rush to Shangjing at dawn tomorrow.
