The little heroine investigates a mysterious case

Chapter 271: Hugging the thigh

It turned out that Tian Xueyan was directly pulled out of the warm bed by Huang Shuo and taken away. Not only was her hair disheveled, but she was only wearing a white silk undershirt. She was so scared that she screamed loudly and was taken away by Huang Shuo.

It flew over the roofs of many palaces and finally landed on an open space outside the imperial palace. Tian Xueyan was shivering from the cold and her lips were blue and purple.

She wants to survive, but she doesn't want to risk her life!

As soon as Huang Shuo let go, Tian Xueyan lost her balance and fell to the ground, fainting instantly.

Huang Shuo was stunned. He looked at Tian Xueyan lying unconscious on the ground, then looked at himself. After thinking for a moment, he finally figured it out. He was a martial artist who could resist the cold, but the weak woman in front of him seemed to be very afraid of the cold.

He took off his coat and covered Tian Xueyan with it. He used his internal energy to warm his palms and kneaded Tian Xueyan's body. Tian Xueyan finally woke up slowly.

It was already dawn. Tian Xueyan sat up, straightened her black coat, and looked at the man in black wearing a white inner garment standing in front of her. She understood instantly.

The man in black was so kind! He was afraid that he would freeze, so he took off his coat and gave it to me.

Tian Xueyan slowly stood up and looked at the palace and pavilions not far away that were gradually emerging in the morning light.

She had lived in the palace for twenty years. Now that she was free, it would be a lie to say that she had no attachment at all. But compared to her life, she was still more happy.

Tian Xueyan looked at Huang Shuo and bowed.

"My name is Tian Xueyan. I haven't asked you your name yet, sir."

"My name is Huang Shuo, Shuo means fruitful."

Then, the two of them stared at each other.

Huang Shuoxin said that he brought this woman out to ask her to help find Xuan'er's whereabouts. Why did this woman ask his name and why didn't she lead the way?

Tian Xueyan thought that she had never left the palace in her life, and now she was outside the palace. She knew nothing, and the only person she could rely on was the hero Huang in front of her. Why did the hero look at her without saying a word?

Tian Xueyan asked tentatively.

"Hero Huang, should we find a place to rest and have something to eat?"

Tian Xueyan pinched the robe of her black coat and added another sentence.

"I still need to buy some clothes. I can't wear your robe. Shouldn't you buy some clothes too?"

Huang Shuo took out five copper coins from his pocket and counted them back and forth.

"I only have these five copper coins left, which seems to be only enough for a full meal. How about I find a blacksmith shop to do some odd jobs and buy you some clothes?"

Huang Shuo was so worried! He thought that supporting Zhao Xuan in this life would be enough, but he didn't expect that after coming to Yue Country, he would have to work to support a strange woman.

No matter how I think about it, this doesn't seem right! How could he forget the important thing?

"Take me to find the virtuous princess. I can buy you clothes only after I save my daughter."

Huang Shuo's words were not to be questioned, and he was very serious.

Tian Xueyan suddenly found it very funny. The development of the situation was beyond her expectation. She left the palace overnight. Why was a princess worse than a beggar and needed clothes from her savior?

Tian Xueyan touched her hair and found that there was not a single hairpin on it. Because it was nighttime, she also took off her earrings and necklace. She looked at her wrist and fortunately she still had a jade bracelet on, which she had never taken off even when sleeping.

This is the only legacy my mother left me, and now I have to take it out to deal with the emergency.

She took off the jade bracelet and handed it to Huang Shuo.

"Mr. Huang, please go find a pawnshop and pawn it. That way we can have money to stay in an inn, buy clothes and eat. Then I'll tell you where the Honglu Temple is. Is that okay?"

Huang Shuo was also a little cold and very hungry. He looked at the thin and pitiful girl in front of him and realized that he had to eat and dress warmly before he could do his work.

So Huang Shuo pawned the jade bracelet at a pawnshop, bought two sets of clothes for each of them at a clothing store, and temporarily rented a room in the inn and had breakfast.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't find a place for Tian Xueyan, Huang Shuo would be reluctant to rent an inn. He could find any corner by himself to have a good sleep, even on a tree branch.

After a series of operations, the silver for the jade bracelet was quickly spent, leaving only five copper coins in Huang Shuo's arms.

After all this trouble, it was already dusk when Huang Shuo found the Honglu Temple. After asking around, he learned that the virtuous prince and his wife had already set out to return to the Xia Kingdom, and the group had been walking for nearly two hours.

The old father's heart was instantly relieved. As long as nothing happened, his daughter and son-in-law were awesome!

Huang Shuo felt relaxed and happily returned to the inn to say goodbye to Tian Xueyan. He still had to hurry to catch up with his daughter and son-in-law to reunite the family!

Tian Xueyan was flustered when she heard this. She grabbed Huang Shuo's arm, her face full of shock, and she spoke without thinking.

"Hero Huang, are you going to abandon me?"

Huang Shuo was stunned, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He really couldn't understand what this girl was thinking, so he asked Tian Xueyan directly.

"You asked me to save you, and I've already rescued you from the palace. Why do you think I abandoned you? We are strangers to each other. Shouldn't we go our separate ways now?"

Now it was Tian Xueyan's turn to be stunned.

It seemed that ever since she asked Hero Huang to save her, she had never thought of being separated from Hero Huang. Yes, just because he rescued her from the palace, does that mean he would have to take care of her for the rest of her life?

But where could she go if she didn't follow Hero Huang?

After all, she was once a pampered princess. Now that she has left her life of ease and comfort, how will she live in the future?

What if Tian Shang discovered she was missing and started searching for her? She would still be dead then!

But she couldn't bring herself to ask Mr. Huang to take her with him again. He was not her relative and they had only met twice. Why should Mr. Huang care about how she would live in the future?

Thinking of this, Tian Xueyan, who had always been smart, was at her wit's end and could only look at Huang Shuo with tears in her eyes.

"Where is Hero Huang going? If Xueyan can repay Hero Huang for saving her life in the future, she will know where to find him..."

When Tian Xueyan said this, an idea suddenly came to her mind.

"Oh, I'm not saving you, but I also need your help. We owe each other nothing. Goodbye!"

Huang Shuo was about to leave when he saw Tian Xueyan suddenly standing in front of him, looking at him with burning eyes.

"Mr. Huang, if you don't repay a favor, you're not a gentleman. You saved me, so I must stay by your side to repay you!"

"Repay a favor? No need. I just picked you up and carried you out of the palace for a while. It was no big deal."

"It may seem like a trivial matter to you, but to me it's a life-saving favor! Saving a life is worth more than building a seven-story pagoda. This is a great favor, and I must repay it!"

Tian Xueyan held Huang Shuo's sleeve tightly, her fingers were trembling, and she didn't dare to look directly into Huang Shuo's eyes.

She had no choice but to decide to take advantage of Huang Shuo's kindness to find a way out for herself. Huang Shuo is a martial arts expert with a simple mind, and is the best support she can have so far!

This is a rare opportunity, don’t miss it!

Otherwise, how could a weak, penniless woman like her gain a foothold in Chuyang City? Forget gaining a foothold, it would be good enough if she wasn't bullied.

Besides, she thought she was pretty, what if she was kidnapped and sold into a brothel?!

Then she has no choice but to die!

The more Tian Xueyan thought about it, the more frightened she became, as if she had just escaped from a wolf's den and fallen into a tiger's mouth. There was no way to survive except Huang Shuo.

She grabbed Huang Shuo's arm tightly, crying breathlessly, shaking all over, and just kept repeating it.

"Repay the favor, repay the favor, I want to repay the favor! Please, I want to repay the favor!"

Huang Shuo was instantly disheveled in the wind!

He really didn't know how to deal with the troublesome situation at hand!
