Golden Branch

“Gee! Gee!!”

On the official road, two horses, one red and one white, were galloping at full speed.

Behind them, there were several male and female guards following closely.

Riding on a white Dayuan horse, Wang Heng, dressed in a bright red Hu costume embroidered with gold thread, once again took the posture of fleeing a thousand miles, galloping at full speed.

There was no way. My father fell accidentally and fell into a coma. As a daughter, I could stay outside and do official business.

However, after finishing official business, he had to rush back as soon as possible.

Do the whole show.

Wang Heng would never be negligent because of the excuse that "I am outside and may not be discovered."

She will always maintain her image as a filial daughter.

They will also maximize their good reputation at critical moments.

It's just a few days of suffering. As long as she can get through this, she can completely solve the problem of Wang Lin.

Da, da, da!

The horseshoe-studded horse hooves stepped hard on the dirt road, splashing a layer of fine yellow soil.

Wang Heng was originally more than a thousand miles away from the capital.

After receiving the news of Wang Lin’s “accident”, Wang Heng immediately abandoned the carriage and mounted her own little white horse.

She traveled madly at a speed of two to three hundred miles a day.

This time, Wang Heng may even try harder.

Not only does she have Ah Man to protect her, but Lou Yu is also there to guard her at all times.

Wang Heng doesn't have to worry about any mishaps while riding.

In the evening, after a day of traveling, Lou Yu took a short break and looked after him closely.

She didn't have to worry about anything, she just had to focus on her journey.

It was a journey of more than a thousand miles, and Wang Heng arrived in less than five days.

In the afternoon, the bright summer sun hangs high in the sky.

Under the scorching heat, the steam was rising and the entire capital seemed to become misty.

On the official road at the city gate, the sound of hurried horse hooves came from afar.

The guards at the city gate changed from their usual laziness and became alert in an instant.

They held their spears tightly and guarded the roadblocks, ready to attack at the first opportunity should any emergency arise.

"Get out of the way! Princess Langya is returning to the capital!"

"Princess Langya has returned to the capital. All outsiders, please get out of the way!"

Lou Yu rushed ahead of Wang Heng by one horse length.

He held the reins in one hand and took out a token with the other and held it high.

He kept shouting, "Get out of the way! Get out of the way quickly!"

The guard at the city gate recognized the Duke of Qi, and even more so the token.

That is the token of the Eastern Palace. When the Crown Prince is not here, it can act on his behalf.

"Quick! Remove the roadblocks!"

The guards did not dare to delay, and several people came together, quickly removed the roadblocks and opened the city gate.

Lou Yu led the way, and Wang Heng followed closely behind.

A man and a woman, one in red and one in white, two figures, like an arrow shot from a bow, or like a shooting star.

Many of the people going in and out of the city gate didn't see it clearly. They just saw a flash before their eyes, and then the two people flew past.

Next came a group of people, galloping on their horses, covered in dust.

"Princess Langya? Is she the beloved daughter of Concubine Jiang?"

"How dare you be so presumptuous as to ride a horse at the city gate?"

"Tsk, you don't understand this. Princess Langya is excusable. Her father had an accident a few days ago and is now only breathing his last breath!"

"Oh! So he came back to see Ye Ye for the last time!"

"No wonder! Looking at the princess, she seems to be at the end of her strength. She must be extremely tired and exhausted after traveling all the way here."

"...As expected of a filial daughter praised so highly by the Empress, she is truly pure and filial!"

The guards and civilians at the city gate waited for Wang Heng and the others to pass by like a gust of wind. Looking at the backs of the team rushing by, they couldn't help but talk about it.

The biggest news in Beijing these days is undoubtedly the Wei family's conversation a few days ago.

It should have been a very elegant gathering where people could show off their talents, but unexpectedly, an accident occurred.

The host acted inappropriately, causing the guest to fall and become unconscious.

Although Wei Prajna and the Wei family made arrangements to deal with the aftermath and remedy the situation, related rumors still spread widely in the market.

This cannot be blamed on the Wei family's lack of control over public opinion. It is really because Wang Lin himself is too popular.

His identity is embarrassing in itself, and he also has the legendary experience of being awakened by a "filial daughter" after falling into a coma. Now he is injured and in a coma again... Tsk, this one person alone can support so many opera troupes and storytellers in Beijing.

Wang Lin was at the center of public opinion, but unfortunately his most filial daughter was not there.

However, although Princess Langya left the capital, she left behind the chief historian of the princess's mansion and her best sister, Princess Wang, to help her take care of her family.

After Wang Lin got into trouble, the Chief Secretary took him back to the princess's mansion. Princess Wang invited famous doctors from the capital and emptied out her collection of precious medicinal herbs, just to help Princess Langya be filial to her elders.

In just four or five days, topics related to the princess's mansion and the royal residence in the capital were always at the top of the capital's gossip list.

Today, Princess Langya returned to the capital, rushing on the road desperately, covered in dust and looking disheveled.

Anyone who saw this appearance could imagine how difficult and anxious Princess Langya's journey was in order to return to the capital as soon as possible.

Da da da!

The horseshoes tapped rapidly on the bluestone floor.

Wang Heng went straight to Zhuque Street and continued running along the wide and straight road.

At this time, Lou Yu had retreated half a body length and continued to guard Wang Heng firmly on her side as a guard.

On the other side is Ah Man, who is now Wang Heng's most useful female guard.

She was born with supernatural powers and received rigorous training since childhood. She is skilled in martial arts and horsemanship.

He looks thin and small, but actually has MAX fighting power!

"Drive! Drive!"

The inside of Wang Heng's thighs had been rubbed red and swollen, and Wang Heng was even a little numb.

It hurts, it hurts so much!

But she no longer cared.

Holding the reins tightly, he galloped all the way and finally rushed into Pingkangfang.

"Princess Langya has returned to her mansion. All outsiders, please make way!"

The guards began to shout loudly.

On the streets of the district, carriages, pedestrians, and others passing by all dodged.

There was no more obstacle in front of Wang Heng, and she successfully rushed to the gate of the princess's mansion.

"Shut up!"

Wang Heng tightened the reins and slammed on the brakes.

The horse stopped running, but due to inertia, it jumped high with its two front hooves.

The snow-white Dayuan horse stood up and neighed continuously.

Wang Heng seemed unable to withstand the huge impact, or was in a hurry to get on with her journey and her body had reached its limit. When the horse stood up, she lost control and fell off the horse.

The slender and beautiful figure was thrown away like a bird with broken wings.

"Aheng!"

Lou Yu leaped up and flew off the horse, rushing towards Wang Heng.

"Princess!"

Ah Man didn't hesitate at all. He stepped on the saddle and jumped down. He looked at the place where Wang Heng landed and lay directly on the ground, using his body as a cushion for his master.

In mid-air, Wang Heng was hugged by Lou Yu around the waist.

Lou Yu hugged Wang Heng with one hand, and before landing on the ground, he turned over with force and firmly cushioned himself underneath.

boom!

Lou Yu and Wang Heng fell down.

It didn't hit Ah Man, but fell to the ground only half a step away from Ah Man.

The moment Lou Yu landed, he made sure Wang Heng was safe and quickly released the hand that was holding her tightly.

Wang Heng very tacitly rolled over and rolled out of Lou Yu's arms.

To outsiders, it seemed like an emergency, and Lou Yu, out of his instinct to save people, ignored the difference between men and women and stepped in to rescue them.

However, Wang Heng threw out with too much force and too much strength. Lou Yu acted hastily but could only barely catch her. In the end, Wang Heng still fell to the ground.

Tsk, he must have been galloping recklessly. Even the Duke of Qi and his guards couldn't catch him.

Wang Heng rolled twice on the ground, her hair was messed up, her face and body were covered with dirt, and she looked very miserable.

After stopping rolling, Wang Heng was visibly stiff for a moment.

She must have been knocked unconscious and hurt, but her daze only lasted a short while before she quickly came to her senses, gritted her teeth, and staggered to her feet.

“Yeah yeah! Yeah yeah!!”

Wang Heng cried out in tears as she crawled.

She no longer looked like a glamorous and respectable princess.

He was covered in dirt and his face was covered in tears, just like a poor little kid who was about to lose his loved ones.

Passersby and neighbors heard the noise and gathered around.

I just happened to see Wang Heng slam on the brakes, fall off the horse, and stagger to her feet.

Everyone couldn't help but feel pity: "Alas, poor Princess Langya! She is only fifteen years old this year, still a little girl who needs her parents' protection and love."

Although my mother is still alive, she cannot be by my side.

Father again...

In order to rush back to see her father for the last time, Princess Langya traveled thousands of miles, traveling day and night.

Such a precious and stunning beauty managed to make herself look disheveled and haggard.

Moreover, the fall from the horse just now was really thrilling.

If Duke Qi hadn't rescued her in time, Princess Langya would have been injured. If she hadn't been careful, she might have even...

"Concern can lead to confusion! Princess Langya is a good horseman, but she's incredibly anxious and worried about her elders!"

"It's pure filial piety indeed. Not only does he take good care of his parents on a daily basis, but he also shows his true love in times of emergency!"

Wang Heng's performance at the gate of the princess's mansion completely perfected her image as a filial daughter.

Lou Yu watched silently throughout the whole process and provided support when necessary.

As the saying goes, "the wife sings and the husband follows."

Of course, this is just the beginning, and the real "highlight" of Lou Yu has not yet begun.

Wang Heng shouted "Yeah Yeah" as she staggered into the mansion.

Several servants heard the noise and came out to greet them.

They were busy supporting the people and arranging the horses.

Lou Yu continued to protect Wang Heng, following her steps and quickly rushed to the main room on the central axis.

In the dormitory, Wang Lin was lying on the couch, his face pale and his breath weak.

The Chief Secretary, Wang Mian, Wang Erlang and others were all guarding nearby.

"Yeah! I'm back! The unfilial daughter Ajiu is back!"

Wang Heng threw herself in front of the bed, hugged Wang Lin's arm, and began to cry sadly.

Lou Yuqi stepped forward and bent down to look at Wang Lin. Suddenly, he shouted in surprise, "It's moving! Uncle Wang's eyelids are moving!"

Everyone:...

Where did it move?

Why didn't they see it?!
