Chapter 3 Rescued
The gangster was fascinated by Xie Fengyue's face for a moment. He looked at it in a daze and gradually fell behind the carriage.
In just a few breaths, he galloped forward and cut off a leash before landing next to the car window. Lust almost appeared in his eyes: "Little lady, can you let me touch you?"
Xie Fengyue suppressed the nausea in her heart and smiled Qiaoyan: "You are too impatient, strong man. I will go up the mountain with you later."
"Up the mountain, you are my brother's man. I can't touch you. They will find you after they deal with the soldiers. Come on, touch me." The gangster seemed to be completely stunned by lust. , actually leaned over and put his face close to the car window.
A stern look flashed in Xie Fengyue's eyes, and she inserted the dagger in her hand into his stretched out face. Hearing the man's screams of pain, he fell off his horse.
Xie Fengyue leaned against the car wall and slid down, breathing heavily. The broken hair on her forehead was wet with sweat and blood and stuck to her cheeks. She looked so embarrassed.
Zhe Zhi cried with joy, and just when she was about to speak, she heard Xie Fengyue say: "Cut the other rope, the carriage is about to fall off the cliff." She had no time to help the girl who was still limp on the ground, so she grabbed the porcelain piece in her hand and crawled to the car on her hands and feet. outside.
The wheel seemed to have run over a heavy stone. There was a violent jolt and the branch was thrown into the rear of the car and she fainted. Fortunately, Xie Fengyue was lying down and was not knocked unconscious. She had no choice but to pick up the porcelain pieces beside her and learn to break branches. He crawled out of the car.
The remaining rope was as thick as a baby's wrist. Her tender hand had been cut by the porcelain shard, and blood was flowing down her wrist.
Xie Fengyue didn't dare to stop. She could already feel the wind and snow cutting into her face like a knife, which meant that she was getting closer to the cliff.
She gritted her teeth and moved her hands together. Huangtian paid off. Fortunately, the thick rope was woven from multiple strands of washing rope. Once it was cut to a certain number, it would be broken by the force of the horse.
Xie Fengyue looked at the collapsed rope, felt comforted in her heart, and moved her hands faster. But after all, she is a girl who has been pampered for a long time. No matter how fast she moves, she can't keep up with the speed of a galloping horse.
Seeing the cliff approaching, she felt extremely sad.
But the movements of his hands still continued, focusing on sharpening the last few strands of rope. She said with comfort and certainty in her heart that all she had to do was rub these few out!
At the critical moment when the horse rushed towards the cliff, Xie Fengyue finally broke the last strand of rope. The huge momentum caused the remaining rope to snap, and the carriage overturned and hung on the edge of the cliff.
Although Xie Fengyue clung to the car frame pillar, she did not expect that the car would roll over. People are still beaten to pieces. She raised her eyes and took a look at the broken branch that was stuck by Xiaotao, and then she felt relieved.
Half sitting up with his arms propped up, the carriage immediately made a creaking sound, as if it was about to lose its balance and fall.
This made her dare not act rashly, biting her lips and thinking about how to save herself.
The pain in my head became more and more obvious, and my face felt wet, but the more anxious I became, the more dizzy I became. In a daze, I first heard a knocking sound outside the carriage, and then heard a man's voice: "Mr. Lang, it seems you are still alive."
Xie Fengyue moved her lips like a fish about to die of thirst: "Help me."
She couldn't see the person outside the car, but she heard his voice like a clear spring in the mountains, clean and pure: "No help."
"Bang Dang" Xie Fengyue's heart sank to the bottom. She struggled to open her eyes, but her eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.
Her tone was sincere: "As long as Mr. Lang saves me, I can do whatever I want."
Songshan couldn't bear it: "Lang Jun. This"
Wang Yan sneered and said contemptuously: "You are too soft-hearted to see the girl suffer? Don't forget why we came to Chen County."
With the sound of horse hooves.
Xie Fengyue was extremely scared, she was afraid that these two people really didn't care about her. Then the hardships she suffered in the Xie Mansion were not all in vain. She also wanted to get rid of the substitute marriage and go south to find her relatives.
Thinking of this, she burst into tears.
Ignoring the violent shaking of the car: "Mr. Lang, I am the legitimate daughter of the Xie family. If you save me, the Xie family of Chen County will definitely owe you a great debt of gratitude."
"Mr. Xie of Chenjun? Favor?" The man chuckled as if he had heard a joke.
"I don't even notice Xie's kindness."
The more urgent Xie Fengyue's situation is, the calmer she becomes. Anyone who can say such things is either an ignorant person or the Langya Wang family.
In the entire Qian'an Dynasty, only the Langya Wang family could sneer at the Xie family.
She decided to take a gamble: "But he is the son of the Langya Wang family? I have heard from my sisters at home that my husband will arrive in Xie County soon to propose marriage for my brother."
Songshan was speechless and whispered: "Mr. Lang, she is really the daughter of the Xie family."
Wang Yan tapped his folding fan lightly on his palms, and after a moment of silence, he squeezed out one word from his lips: "Save"
After receiving the order, Songshan jumped off the horse, dragged the overturned carriage backwards with both hands, and then entered the carriage. With one hand, he picked up a young lady and tucked it under his arm. He then placed the two men sideways on the horse, one behind the other, and then jumped onto the horse again.
Wang Yan's eyes fell on Xie Fengyue: "He is ruthless and careful at the same time. What a Xie's daughter."
Songshan's horse seemed to be weighed down by the weight of the three people, snoring in dissatisfaction. Songshan touched the horse's body and said, "Hey Xiao Hong, when we get to Xie's Mansion, let's eat his fine grain and grass." The horse seemed to have listened. Although it was still snoring, its hooves had already begun to move forward.
Inside the Xie Mansion.
The steward was so busy that her feet couldn't touch the ground, and she was still shouting: "Hurry, has the silver charcoal been replaced in the front hall? Has the snow in the yard been swept away! The distinguished guest here today is the direct son of the Wang family of Langya. If If there is any difference, everything will be sold to you!”
Xie Fengyu, the second daughter of the Xie family, rushed to Madam Xie's room with Mrs. Tang in her arms.
As soon as she entered the door, she said anxiously and angrily: "Mother! That bitch was sent back by the Langya Wang family!"
Mrs. Xie paused while drinking tea: "What's going on? Isn't she going to give someone away?"
Xie Fengyu was so anxious that she jumped to her feet: "I just heard the report from the concierge and came to look for you." She looked hard and said immediately: "I don't know what method was used to lure the Wang family to personally send her back to the house."
She twisted the handkerchief in her hand and gritted her teeth: "Mother, she has already got her brother to protect her in every way. Will she try to climb a high tree to hook up with him again after seeing that he is the son of Prince Langya?"
Mrs. Xie's face suddenly darkened: "She followed her mother's charming personality and lacked the reserve of a girl from aristocratic family."
The heavy snow has arrived and it is very cold.
When they arrived at Xie's Mansion, when the servants heard that it was the husband of the Wang family, they were all attentive and prepared, but they left Xie Fengyue, who was all injured, in the main hall.
She described herself as sitting on her knees in embarrassment. After looking around at the bustling maids and grandmothers, she saw a white figure among them.
Along the way, this man hung her with a broken branch on his horse, showing no mercy.
She was annoyed and ashamed, but it didn't help. This was Wang Yan, the youngest son of the Wang family. Even she, a daughter of a family who had never left home, had heard about it.
He was extremely favored by the head of the Wang family, and in his early years he was a disciple of the world-famous Gu Dahongru. Before he reached the crown, he took control of the Wang family's tens of thousands of troops and military power. Everyone in the world praised him for his generosity and talent, and praised him as the best among the heroes.
But in Xie Fengyue's opinion, this person came to Xie County this time. At best, he was proposing marriage for his brother. At worst, he was here to have fun. He was not the one to propose the marriage to the Xie family in person.
Feeling the probing eyes, Wang Yan raised his head and looked over.
Xie Fengyue hurriedly lowered his head.
Mrs. Xie arrived before she could say anything: "I have met the young master. The master of the family just sent a letter saying that the young master is here in person. I didn't expect that the young master traveled so fast. He arrived at Xie County in less than three days. I blame me for being rude and not being able to kiss him." Welcome.”
Xie Fengyu was a little stunned when he heard this: "Why is mother so humble?"
Madam Xie took Xie Fengyu aside and introduced her: "This is our little girl Xie Fengyu. I must have seen the portrait." Her hand hidden under her sleeves poked her dazed daughter.
Xie Fengyu then bowed and saluted.
After the two words "no hindrance" lightly, there was no sound from the other side.
Xie Fengyue followed the reputation, but she couldn't really see what the husband looked like.
But when she was in a daze, his words of "no help" left a deep impression on her.
The atmosphere in the main hall was a little awkward for a moment, and then Mrs. Xie seemed to be looking at the injured Xie Fengyue beside her: "Oh, why did Yue'er have to send someone like this?"
Xie Fengyue lowered her head and couldn't see her expression clearly. Her clothes were messy and her bun was loose. The jade around her waist was broken into pieces. There were blood stains on her forehead. Especially her hands, which were still bleeding, looked even more terrifying.
Xie Fengyue said timidly with tears in her eyes: "When we returned home, we met a bandit on the road. Aunt Hua...she..." She seemed to be in a state of grief and couldn't speak.
Xie Fengyu asked sharply: "Cry, cry, cry, you know how to cry!!"
She was so annoyed by Xie Fengyue's behavior that she didn't care what happened to Aunt Hua, but she cared that she would embarrass the Xie family in front of Gongzi Yan by crying whenever something happened.
"Aunt Hua was injured by a thief in order to save me. Her life and death are unknown. I was forced by the thief to the top of the mountain and almost fell off the cliff. It was Gongzi Yan who saved me." She stood up with difficulty and thanked Wang Yan in the direction.
Hearing this, Xie Fengyu pointed at her with a hint of resentment in his eyes: "You harmful person!"
Her words were promptly interrupted by Mrs. Xie. She turned to look at Wang Yan and said gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. Yan, for saving my little girl's life. It must have been a long journey for you to come all the way from Langya, so why not go down and rest first."
Wang Yan, who was watching the show on the side, had a faint smile on his lips. His eyes passed over Xie Fengyue with a meaningful look, and then he raised his hands and saluted: "Then I'll trouble you, madam, to make arrangements for you."
