Fast Crossing: The Plan to Save the Sick Villain

Chapter 286 Small Outer Room (3)

The two walked out of the ruined temple together, Si Tu pinched the corner of his skirt with his fingertips, and timidly looked at the guards outside.

"Please, my lady, get into the carriage."

The guard with the sword on his waist made a gesture of invitation, but with his movement, the light of the sword suddenly appeared, and Si Tu let out a cry of surprise.

Grabbing Qingfeng's sleeve with his fingertips, Si Tu hid behind him, not daring to meet his gaze.

Glancing at the person hiding behind him, Qingfeng's heart moved slightly, and he said in a deep voice,

"Put away the swords!"

Quickly turning around and saluting her with fists cupped, Qingfeng said softly,

"It's because the subordinates are lax in discipline and disturbed the little madam. Please forgive me."

Si Tu twisted his thin clothes, his drooping eyelashes trembled uneasily, looking terrified.

"I, I don't blame you, it's my fault, I'm too timid."

Seeing that their lords saluted, everyone followed suit and said in unison,

"I also ask the little madam to forgive me."

As if frightened by the crowd's shouts, Si Tu widened his eyes and took a small step back, almost tripping over the stones under his feet.

Fortunately, Qingfeng had quick eyes and quick hands, so she didn't really fall on the muddy ground.

"Can you keep your voice down?"

Qingfeng protected her, supported her slender waist, and scolded the subordinate in front of him coldly.

Seeing that it scared people, they trembled.

Seeing that he was angry, Si Tu quickly grabbed his sleeve and said timidly,

"Don't blame them, I'm not scared."

Looking at the strong and calm woman in front of him, Qingfeng's head felt itchy as if something was blocking it.

Seeing the little lady protecting them like this, everyone let go of their grudges.

His eyes inevitably overflowed with pity.

How can a weak woman survive in a place like the palace that cannibalize people without spitting out their bones?

What's more, the person who wants her dead is the little master of the palace.

Picking up the light gauze on the carriage, Si Tu draped Qingfeng's strong arms, and finally took a look in the direction of the ruined temple.

She is really looking forward to Duke Huai's mansion.

The carriage was filled with incense, and Si Tu was lazily leaning on the bed with deep eyes.

How can there be any innocent appearance of a little white rabbit.

[Why did the host pretend to be the original owner's mother? 】

After all, a small concubine is not eligible to inherit Duke Huai's title and property.

【If I go back as the original owner, I'm afraid I won't survive tonight】

It is precisely because the identity of the outer room is not a threat to them that she can breathe.

When the time comes, careful planning will also allow them to let go of their short-term vigilance.

As the carriage moved forward, passing a stream, the gauze curtain was lifted by the breeze.

The world in Si Tu's eyes fell into gray again, whether it was green mountains or rivers, they lost their original colors.

It's gray and nothing to look at.

Si Tu pulled down the gauze curtain, but missed A Nian who was fetching water for her in front of the creek.

If she persisted for a few more seconds, she would see that Ah Nian's gray body gradually began to take on color.

The carriage moved forward steadily, as if it was taking care of the timid emotions of the people in the carriage.

creak-

The carriage stopped in front of a post house in the capital.

A palm extended inward from the outside of the car curtain, and a steady voice reached Si Tu's ears.

"First offend the little madam to get out of the car and familiarize yourself with it before entering the palace."

Si Tu glanced at the dirty single clothes on his body, and said softly,

"Then there is Mr. Lao."

Holding his arm, Si Tu slowly got out of the carriage, his whole body was thin and his face was a bit ugly.

It even aroused the sympathy of the people present.

"Little madam is exhausted, why don't you rest here tonight."

The person in front of him was so thin that he could be blown away by a gust of wind, Qingfeng really couldn't bear it.

Spring is cold and cold, and after heavy rain, even the air smells of earth and grass.

As soon as the cool breeze passed, Si Tu covered his sleeves and coughed, his shoulders trembling non-stop.

"How can you delay your errand's errand, the slave's family will be fine soon."

Si Tu kept coughing, but he didn't stop walking, for fear of delaying everyone's time.

"Little madam."

Qingfeng took off his cloak, put it on her shoulders, lowered his voice as much as possible, and said,

"The people in the posthouse are all arranged by the Wangfu, my lady, please do as you please."

Saying that, Qingfeng took a step back and made a gesture of please.

"Thank you for reminding me."

Si Tu gathered up his cloak, and saluted behind him, his brows and eyes couldn't be parted, and I felt pity for him.

Since she is a member of the palace, she should be more careful in dealing with it.

Si Tu turned around and left, stepped into the post house, the hot soup and Chinese clothes were all ready.

"Slaves, etc., please refer to the little madam."

The servants waited for Situ to wash up in an orderly manner, and the only sound in the room was the sound of water rubbing against his clothes.

No one dares to lie.

After washing away the stains from wandering, and changing into brocade clothes, Si Tu let the maid behind him pull up his blue hair.

When a maid was arranging the jade around her waist, she quietly slipped a note into her hand.

Sure enough, the thing she went back was that someone was operating in the dark.

It's just that who this person is can only be determined after she returns home.

The door was pushed open by the maidservants, who lined up in two rows, holding palace lanterns and bowing their heads.

"Welcome little lady back home."

Although Si Tu put on fancy clothes, his demeanor was still delicate and weak, and those beautiful eyes were extremely innocent.

"My subordinate, Qingfeng, welcomes the little lady back home."

Qingfeng put away the sword, cupped his hands and cupped his fists in salute.

Originally thought that she would let him lie down like ordinary nobles, but unexpectedly, she met a pair of smiling eyes.

"It turns out that the name of the adult is changed to Qingfeng, I will remember it."

Taking his arm, Si Tu stepped into the carriage again.

This time, the carriage was heading towards the colorful Duke Huai Mansion, which was also the destination of her mission.

【Why does the host want to be nice to a guard? 】

Is it necessary to spend so much effort to please?
【Having money and power is not as good as having soldiers in your hands】

The head of the palace guards is no one to be taken lightly.

If she can get his help, she will be able to get twice the result with half the effort!
System: The host's calculations are quite loud.

Opening the note in his hand, the writing on it is strong and powerful, but there is still some softness.

It must have been written by a woman.

"Careful in words and deeds."

Si Tu silently read the above four words, her eyebrows furrowed tightly.

Whether it was a warning or a kind reminder, she didn't know for the time being, and naturally she didn't know the other party's intentions.

This passivity made her a little annoyed.

In less than half an hour, the carriage stopped in front of the small gate of the palace.

Si Tu got off the carriage, pretended to cough a few times, returned the cloak to Qing Feng, and said with a blessing,

"Your Excellency has escorted you all the way, and the servants are very grateful."

There was a faint smell of powder on the cloak, and Qingfeng lowered his eyes, a little afraid to look directly at her.

"From now on, the little madam will live in the palace, and she must not call herself a slave as before."

Qingfeng reminded in a low voice, but his body was tense and his movements were in line with the rules.

It's just that the violently beating heart betrayed his current state of mind.
