Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, the prince led me to rebel

On the official road from Hexi Village to Yizhou City, two carriages were running at high speed, but in completely opposite directions.

The final result, as expected, was that they met.

After the ropes on Luo Xiaoran's hands and the black silk on her eyes were untied, the first person she saw was Zhu Qiu, who had held her down and asked the doctor to feel her pulse.

"Zhu Qiu?"

Luo Xiaoran greeted politely, then scurried out and sat outside as well.

Zhu Qiu picked up the reins and continued on his way, while Luo Xiaoran leisurely observed the scenery on the road.

She seldom came to Yizhou, and she was not familiar with the road from Hexi Village to Yizhou. She felt fresh watching the scenery passing by quickly on both sides.

Zhu Qiu drove seriously with a stern face, but his eyes were carefully observing Luo Xiaoran beside him.

Is she a lady?

If so, why doesn't she recognize the young master?

If not, how come she looks so much like the young lady?

Is she like Concubine Yun...resurrected from the dead?

Luo Xiaoran saw all of Zhu Qiu's little movements, but she didn't want to pay attention to them.

Everyone is entangled in trivial matters, so think more about happy things!

When thinking about happy things, happy things suddenly appear in front of you.

Luo Xiaoran looked from afar and saw the green horse running towards them. It was her Chou Li!

"Kong Qing!"

Luo Xiaoran put her hands to her mouth like a big trumpet and shouted loudly.

This sound frightened Zhu Qiu.

"Xiaoran!"

"Luo Xiaoran!"

Du Kongqing on the Chou Li also recognized Luo Xiaoran at a glance. As soon as she shouted, Sun Qingyuan came out of the carriage and shouted as well.

Luo Xiaoran said to Zhu Qiu with a smile: "It seems that I don't need to trouble you to send me back."

Zhu Qiu immediately pulled the reins to rein in the horse. Before he put down the stool, Luo Xiaoran easily jumped off the tall carriage and ran straight towards Qingma.

It was not until Luo Xiaoran got on the green horse and left that Zhu Qiu turned around and returned to Yizhou.

"Kong Qing, there's no need for you to wear this veil all day long. It's so suffocating!"

Seeing the thin silk under Du Kong's green veil being blown against her face by the wind, Luo Xiaoran gave her a small suggestion.

Sun Qingyuan agreed with her point of view: "That's right! Wearing a veil will make it more eye-catching."

Du Kongqing sighed helplessly, "There's nothing I can do. If An Ruquan finds out that I'm faking illness, it will be terrible!"

"Speaking of An Ruquan, Luo Xiaoran, weren't you captured by An Ruquan's men? How did you end up on the official road between Hexi Village and Yizhou?"

In order to avoid suspicion, Sun Qingyuan could not sit outside with the two girls at the same time. He could only stick his head out to talk to them, which was quite difficult for him.

"Those people are not An Ruquan's men. They just use An Ruquan's name to cover up their tracks. Don't ask about the rest." Luo Xiaoran said lightly.

"That's right! As long as Xiaoran is safe and sound!" Du Kongqing echoed from the side.

Luo Xiaoran looked at Sun Qingyuan's face, which was only visible outside the carriage, and asked, "Speaking of this official road, are you two going to Yizhou? What are you going there for?"

Sun Qingyuan only showed his head, and it was difficult for him to extend his hands. He could only pout in the direction of Du Kongqing:

"As soon as she heard that you were captured by An Ruquan's men, she clamored to save you!

Although Wang Changbo's family is the richest, how could they possibly defeat the county magistrate?

After much thought, I decided that the only option was to go and try with King Yan.

If you're lucky enough to meet him in the mansion, maybe he can meet us and help rescue you!"

"Ok!"

Luo Xiaoran nodded to indicate that she understood.

There was a warm feeling flowing from my chest to my whole body.

Last time, Sun Qingyuan had told her that going to Prince Yan to complain was not a feasible approach, as one could lose his life if he was not careful.

Unexpectedly, this time he and Kong Qing actually had to go to Prince Yan's Mansion to save himself.

This is putting your own safety aside.

……

Zhang Xiuqiao was pacing back and forth in front of Luo Xiaoran's house.

She didn't know whether she should come to find Luo Xiaoran, so she was always a little hesitant.

Just after knocking on the door, Uncle Xiang said Luo Xiaoran was not at home.

When asked where he had been, Uncle Xiang was hesitant and couldn't say exactly where he was going.

So Zhang Xiuqiao waited at the door.

Fortunately, before long, Luo Xiaoran, Du Kongqing and Sun Qingyuan came back in a carriage.

"Xiu Qiao? Are you here to see me?"

Luo Xiaoran jumped off the carriage swiftly, went to meet Zhang Xiuqiao and asked.

Du Kongqing, who had not come down yet, saw Zhang Xiuqiao and the words of An Ruquan threatening the village chief to take Zhang Xiuqiao as a concubine flashed through his mind. He was filled with great guilt.

This knot in her heart made her feel guilty towards the Zhang family.

Luo Xiaoran also knew her concern, so she gave Sun Qingyuan a look.

Sun Qingyuan immediately signaled Du Kongqing and himself to go in first, while Luo Xiaoran stayed to talk to Zhang Xiuqiao.

"I went out for something. Have you been waiting here for a long time?" Luo Xiaoran asked.

Zhang Xiuqiao quickly shook her head, her fair face full of embarrassment:

"No, I just got here too. I came here to..."

"If you have anything to say, just come into my house and tell me." Luo Xiaoran invited Zhang Xiuqiao into her house.

"No need!" Zhang Xiuqiao rejected Luo Xiaoran's proposal again.

"What I want to say is actually... it's better to say it here anyway."

"Okay, Xiu Qiao, go ahead and tell me!"

"Didn't my father ask you to tell my second brother to come home soon?

I just found out that my father asked my second brother to come here because he wanted him to help me keep an eye out for a young man that I like..."

By this point, Luo Xiaoran had understood most of what Zhang Xiuqiao said.

"Is it because An Ruquan threatened the village chief last time that the village chief is now in a hurry to find a husband for you?

You didn't want to go in and tell him because you were afraid Kong Qing would feel guilty after hearing it."

Zhang Xiuqiao smiled bitterly and nodded helplessly:

"My father was indeed frightened by An Ruquan's words. Besides, I will be a 15-year-old next year, so it's time to arrange a marriage."

"Then come find me..."

"My father was already shocked and angry because of An Ruquan's threats, and my second brother didn't want to come back from the city, so my father was very angry.

At noon today, my mother said a few more words, complaining that my father said those words in front of Kong Qing's house, which led to An Ruquan's threats.

My father is now sick from anger and lying in bed, but he refuses to go to the hospital.

Uncle Niu happened to be in the county town and hadn't come back yet, so I came here to ask you to borrow the carriage so that I can take my father to the clinic."

Luo Xiaoran glanced to the west. The sun was already halfway down.

"Of course that's no problem! But it's getting late now. Even if we drive a carriage, we probably won't be able to get into the city before curfew."

Zhang Xiuqiao became anxious when she heard this and quickly explained:

"Actually, at first my dad was just upset and had a stomachache, but now his head also hurts. I really don't know what to do, so I came to you for help."
