After traveling through time, she just wanted to eat, drink and have fun
Chapter 104 Escape
The female guard paused, not knowing how to respond to this for a long time. To be honest, she also had a new respect for Liu Yinyin. . . . .
Jin Baoyin seemed to see what the female guard was thinking and continued to ask, "Are you still going to follow her?"
The female guard continued to remain silent, and she was also conflicted. She knew Liu Yinyin's character, and next time she encountered a similar situation, she might (crossed out) do the same thing again. But the female guard couldn't help but pray in her heart, hoping that Liu Yinyin would be safe. Otherwise, she might be so upset that she would follow her mother's wishes and be buried with her.
Seeing that the female guard didn't say anything and didn't feel embarrassed, Jin Baoyin sighed softly and said, "Do you have the letter I gave you? In this situation, you can also go to Prince Jing. He will definitely help you." The female guard's heart moved.
She knew that Prince Jing was a very powerful person, and if she could get Prince Jing's protection, the master-servant relationship between her and Liu Yinyin might really be resolved. But she also knew that Prince Jing and Liu Yinyin had some complicated relationships, and she didn't know if doing this would cause trouble for Prince Jing.
Forget it, let’s escape first and ensure my own safety.
The female guard bowed to Jin Baoyin and said, "Brother Baoyin, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. Yingyue will remember it in her heart. Now let's say goodbye!"
Jin Baoyin nodded.
The female guard jumped onto the horse without hesitation.
The horse sensed the master's nervousness, and it kicked its hooves and galloped away like an arrow. The female guard lowered her body, tightly grasped the reins, and merged with the horse's back. Her heart was beating like a drum, and her eyes were fixed firmly on the road ahead.
The wind whistled in her ears and lifted her hair. She ignored the fatigue and fear, and only wanted to escape the danger. Every step was full of uncertainty, but she did not retreat.
Jin Baoyin looked at the female guard's receding figure, feeling a complex emotion in his heart.
In addition to worry, I also felt a little reluctant.
The female guard drove her horse to gallop like a whirlwind. After a long night, when the sky was bright in the east, she finally arrived at a small town on the border of her country. The soldiers guarding the city stopped her and questioned her in detail. They did not let her enter the city or leave. Instead, they saluted and said, "Miss, please stay! His Royal Highness Prince Jing invites you!"
When the female guard heard this, her heart suddenly tightened. The four words "Prince Jing invites you" sounded like a thunderclap in her ears. She almost instinctively wanted to reach out and touch the crucial letter hidden in her chest, but she still suppressed her inner impulse. She lowered her head and silently followed the officer in front of her, walking forward step by step. She became more and more anxious and uneasy, and she kept thinking about one question in her mind - should she hand this letter to Prince Jing?
In this way, under the guidance of the soldiers, she passed through many checkpoints and finally came to a heavily guarded and murderous military camp. Then, she was taken to a relatively spacious tent. To be honest, if she had a choice, she would rather die than step into the military camp again, especially because she felt extremely repulsive and afraid to enter the tent.
In the tent, Prince Jing stood straight, with his hands behind his back, staring at her with sharp eyes. The female guard was terrified and saluted hurriedly. Prince Jing nodded slightly, motioning her to stand up and answer. "You escaped from the enemy country?" Prince Jing's voice was low and majestic.
"Your Highness, that's right." The female guard nodded in reply. "I heard that you and Liu Yinyin were abducted together. Where is she now?" Prince Jing went straight to the point. The female guard's face turned pale and she looked a little embarrassed. She bit her lip and hesitated for a moment before finally deciding to tell the truth: "I really don't know. The master left in advance on a horse alone. She was one step ahead of me. According to the time calculation, she should have arrived at the city gate a long time ago."
Prince Jing frowned slightly, thinking to himself. He couldn't imagine that the seemingly frail Liu Yinyin could actually ride a horse alone and choose to leave first. He couldn't help but doubt his previous judgment.
Full of doubts, Prince Jing turned to look at the female guard beside him and asked in a serious tone: "She can ride a horse? Why did she leave alone?"
The female guard hesitated for a moment, then replied: "Your Highness, the master's riding and archery skills are indeed superb, not inferior to those of men. As for why she left alone..." Having said that, the female guard paused slightly, as if thinking about how to continue.
Seeing this, Prince Jing signaled her not to worry and just report the truth. So the female guard took a deep breath and reported everything that happened to Prince Jing, including the matter of the gold, treasure and silver.
Prince Jing's eyes darkened, some past events came to mind, but he couldn't be sure what they were. After a moment of silence, he waved his hand and said to the female guard: "You must be exhausted after traveling all the way here. Go down and have a good rest first."
After the female guard left, Prince Jing slowly sat down, took out a letter from his bosom, and looked at it thoughtfully. He received this letter this morning. The handwriting on it was very familiar to him, but he couldn't believe the content. . . . . .
Liu Yinyin stood in the deep pool outside the city, rubbing her skin with all her strength, as if she was trying to rub off a layer of flesh. She washed her body over and over again, fearing that there would be a trace of residue. The clothes she had originally worn had long been thrown aside because they were already covered with dirt and blood and could no longer be worn.
On the shore was a set of clean coarse cloth clothes, which she had stolen from a farmer's house during her escape. Although these clothes looked very plain and even had a few patches on them, they were extremely precious to Liu Yinyin at the moment. After taking a bath, Liu Yinyin hurriedly went ashore, picked up the clothes and quickly put them on.
This outfit is made of blue-black cotton and linen, and the top is a knee-length robe with tight sleeves. This style of clothing is quite common in the local area, especially in places near the border, where the customs are relatively open. However, for Liu Yinyin, who has always been used to wearing skirts, it is a bit difficult to put on the trousers that go with the outfit. She spent a lot of time and effort to finally put on the trousers.
When the clothes were completely attached to her body, Liu Yinyin felt an unprecedented discomfort. The rough fabric rubbed against her delicate skin, making her feel itchy all over. She couldn't help but think of the past days. Even when she was the poorest, the servants around her wore much better clothes than she did now. But now, she had no choice but to accept reality.
Although she had tried her best to clean the dirt on the original clothes, those stubborn stains were not so easy to remove. After all, she had never washed clothes by hand, but in comparison, at least now she was no longer wearing those wet and dirty clothes.
She had been thinking about the female guard since she took a bath. She was worried and could not be sure whether the female guard had escaped safely; at the same time, she had no idea whether Prince Jing would meet the female guard first. If the female guard told Prince Jing everything that happened in the enemy camp, the situation she faced would become more difficult. If this matter spread, how could those famous families be willing to marry such a woman as their principal wife? Even if they took her as a concubine, I am afraid she would only become a lowly concubine who could be manipulated and transferred at will.
Liu Yinyin made up her mind to rush back to the city as soon as possible to find the whereabouts of the female guard, trying to find her before others, or at least get some news about her.
Walking hard along the winding mountain path, suddenly, a slight sound of footsteps came into her ears, and Liu Yinyin immediately became alert, quickly hid behind a big tree beside the road, holding her breath and paying close attention to every move around her.
Looking closely, I saw several people carrying bamboo baskets full of items, slowly moving towards the top of the mountain. They were talking and laughing as they walked, and seemed not to notice that there were people hiding nearby. Liu Yinyin did not dare to take it lightly, and continued to observe the actions of these people silently, trying to get any possible useful clues from them.
