Chapter 73 Your Highness, Please Get in the Car
After running only a few steps, Xiao Mingyan began to snort, "This heartless bastard, does he know I'm injured?"
Zhu Luo stopped and asked with concern, "How is your wound? I'm sorry, Your Highness, but if we don't run fast now, things will get really bad."
The voices behind me grew clearer.
"I just heard a noise here, and then the yard caught fire."
"Someone must have set this on fire! Search the place! Find out who has the audacity to set fire to the Vice Minister's house! They must be tired of living!"
Zhu Luo looked at Xiao Mingyan and raised an eyebrow.
Some people are just too tired to live and will deliberately cause trouble for no reason.
Xiao Mingyan didn't seem surprised, nor did he show any discomfort. Instead, he squinted at Zhu Luo's face, scrutinizing it inch by inch: "Anyway, I can't run away. You'd better think of another way."
Zhu Luo's mind went blank; he really wanted to fly straight to the sky.
However, even a moment's hesitation can push the situation to an irreversible point.
"This was requested by Your Highness. Please forgive me if it has startled you."
Running on two legs would definitely be limited, especially for these two elderly, weak, and disabled individuals.
A means of transportation is necessary.
Zhu Luo had just noticed the commotion near the big tree.
Cang Xu must be nearby.
But what else could they do? The fastest way for them to leave was by horse or carriage.
No matter which seat you take, you'll attract too much attention.
Xiao Mingyan suddenly smiled and asked, "Miss Shen, do you have a brilliant idea?"
Zhu Luo frowned slightly, feeling as if she had fallen into his trap.
"Your Highness, please look ahead."
A few meters away in the open space, a strangely shaped object suddenly appeared: two wheel-like objects supporting a support like the limbs of a ferocious beast, and a flashing light in front of it, like the eyes of a wolf always on guard.
"This is called an electric vehicle, or you can call it an electric donkey, but there's no time to explain in detail. Your Highness, please get on the vehicle!"
This is her most treasured little electric scooter, and she can only show it off to Xiao Mingyan.
"Electric donkey, tsk tsk, is it made of iron?" Xiao Mingyan curiously stepped over the horse-like creature, which was also much shorter than a horse.
The child was curious and touched everything about the new gadgets.
"I already said I'd explain later, Your Highness," Zhu Luo wanted to tell him to hold onto the handrails on either side, but then worried that it was his first time riding an electric scooter.
He couldn't handle the high-speed train, saying, "Hold on tight, I'm about to start!"
"Holding you? Miss Shen's way of saying one thing and meaning another is quite amusing, but when she expresses her true feelings... Ah!"
Before he could even sigh, Zhu Luo turned the handlebars, and the electric scooter shot off like an arrow.
"This...this is an electric scooter!" Xiao Mingyan was more surprised than frightened, and his excitement was hard to contain. He kept praising it, "This is so much faster than the Crown Prince's Blood Rabbit!"
Is Blood Rabbit the prince?
A thought flashed through Zhu Luo's mind.
"Your Highness, hold onto my waist!"
Someone is holding her arms; this must be a capture maneuver.
"You didn't explain clearly." Xiao Mingyan, following local custom, wrapped his arms around the girl's waist. It wasn't the first time he had hugged her, so he leaned against her back as if he had no bones.
Zhu Luo glanced down and said, "There's no need for that. Has Your Highness ever ridden a horse with people before? Just do it like that."
"Does having walked a dog count?" Xiao Mingyan ignored her, leaned his chin over and rested it on her shoulder, his nose hovering near her ear.
Zhu Luo was both amused and exasperated: "Your Highness really loves to joke."
Electric vehicles are faster than human legs can reach, and most importantly, they are silent.
Soon, they distanced themselves from the Shen family members behind them and went unnoticed.
We're out of danger for now.
Zhu Luo breathed a sigh of relief.
The headlights shone on a person.
Zhu Luo stopped the car: "Banxia!"
Banxia peeked out from behind the tree in alarm: "Is that Miss?"
"It's me, come here and talk to me!"
Banxia, still shaken, approached while glancing left and right: "Miss, is it really you, Your Highness!"
Her knees buckled, and she almost knelt down.
"It's alright, don't stand on ceremony." Xiao Mingyan nodded and smiled, but didn't loosen his grip at all.
Banxia then noticed that the prince's hand was placed in a place that he shouldn't have.
She felt a sudden jolt in her head and muttered to herself, "There's no one around, no one will know about this."
"Miss, what is this? Why is it moving?"
“This is called the Wind and Fire Wheels, the prince’s mount, right?” She turned back and gave him a knowing look.
The little girl is timid; I'm afraid she'll worry if I explain too much.
Xiao Mingyan didn't expose her: "That's right, this is my Wind and Fire Wheels. I saw that your master couldn't go home, so I wanted to give them to him."
Banxia hurriedly bowed and thanked him: "Thank you, Your Highness. Miss is able to go home. I have already explained the situation to the kitchen staff, and we will take Miss home right away."
"I'm afraid it's too late, Banxia, come to the front."
"Huh?" Banxia looked confused.
"The Shen family is in trouble, let's go back and talk about it!" Zhu Luo spread her legs to make room.
So Banxia squeezed in front of Zhu Luo, with a little prince behind her.
In modern times, she would have violated countless traffic rules.
I've never ridden a horse before, let alone an electric scooter that goes so fast. I held back my screams the whole way, and after getting off, I sat on the ground, still shaken, unable to recover for a long time.
"Are you going to take this electric scooter back?" Xiao Mingyan didn't react much; he touched the sleek body of the scooter, clearly enjoying it.
"If you don't accept it, where will I put it?"
"Isn't this my Wind and Fire Wheels? Are you going to back out?"
Zhu Luo chuckled: "Your Highness, there's no one else here. Don't pretend you don't know. This thing doesn't belong here."
"It's here, it's right here."
Xiao Mingyan simply got into the car, as if it were his and no one could take it away from him.
Zhu Luo panicked: "You don't even understand what this is, so how can you accept it so readily? It scares me, okay?"
“What is there to be afraid of?” Xiao Mingyan lowered his gaze, his expression becoming slightly solemn. “There is nothing in this world that I fear. What if there is another modern world, as you call it? Isn’t it still a world where all living beings are just barely surviving?”
The distant flames grew stronger, turning the sky red.
Banxia stared blankly ahead, only then realizing that the Shen family's house was on fire.
Zhu Luo's eyes widened in shock. After a long pause, she carefully chose her words and said, "What Your Highness said makes some sense. It's not a good time to discuss this topic tonight. Since Your Highness doesn't mind, I have no objection either. Can you ride?"
"Of course, is that right?" Xiao Mingyan smiled again, turned the handlebars, started the electric scooter, and circled around her a few times.
Zhu Luo couldn't help but sigh, "With the young prince's learning ability, he'd probably live a more comfortable life than I would in modern times."
"This item must be carefully stored away, Your Highness. I do not want you to suffer any criticism because of it."
"Hmph, you should worry about yourself. But after this night, Shen Jinxi shouldn't dare to do anything to you, so you can rest assured for now."
Zhu Luo frowned slightly: "Your Highness, did you ask the princess to come and fetch me?"
Xiao Mingyan adjusted his posture: "Then you underestimated her. Alright, the person has been delivered, let's head back!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding trees made a rustling sound.
It must be his guards who are on the move.
Zhu Luo bowed and saw them off.
There are even bigger problems waiting for her behind those high walls; let him do whatever he wants.
