This queen is not too curly

Chapter 4 Big Brother
Her voice seemed to always be so light and ethereal, like the softness and weakness of a person who is dying.

The kidnapper elder brother slowly drew out the knife from his waist and put it on Yan Yuan's neck: "Why should I trust you?"

Yan Yuan looked up at him, her voice was still soft: "But you have no other choice."

"I can also kill you and burn the body, but they can't find it either." The kidnapper brother said coldly.

This time he really wanted to kill him.

The knife in her hand turned slightly, and the blade drew a thin line on her neck.

However, the girl in front of her still didn't respond.

She even shook her head slightly and said softly, "No."

She explained seriously: "It takes at least two hours to burn a living person to ashes, even if it is chopped up, it is too late."

"You..."

"Letting me go is the best option."

Yan Yuan raised her head and said softly.

The kidnapper brother stared at the girl in front of him.

A rich young lady opened her eyes to find that she was kidnapped by kidnappers. She neither cried nor sought death.

She wasn't even angry, but almost numb.

This is not normal.

Just like a rabbit will tremble when it falls into a wolf's den, and a chicken will not dare to move when it encounters an eagle. This girl is not at all frightened about her being kidnapped. There will be real danger.

There was a stalemate like this for a long time.

The young kidnapper was finally defeated.

He put down the blade in front of her, lowered his head, and personally sent her out of the ruined temple.

At this time, the little stars at the bottom of the mountain have reached the halfway up the mountain, and they will reach the top of the mountain in less than half an hour.He sent her to the only remote path down the mountain, watching the old and weak, women and children disappear into the night.

The last one is Yan Yuan.

"wait……"

The kidnapper elder brother blurted out.

Yan Yuan turned her head, her eyes reflected the torch, which was indescribably cool.

The kidnapper brother opened his mouth. He wanted to tell her to be more careful, or comfort her not to be afraid of the pursuers, but looking into those eyes, he couldn't say anything.

She also didn't seem to need to hear those words.

……

The path down the mountain has been abandoned for many years, overgrown with weeds, and you can't see your fingers.

The old and the young in the fleeing crowd needed a rest every time they walked.Stopping and walking all the way like this, I don't know how long it took, the woman behind Yan Yuan suddenly staggered, and Yan Yuan instinctively stretched out her hand to support her.

The moment her hands were clasped, the woman raised her head in amazement: "Why are your hands so cold? Are you feeling unwell?"

At this time, more than half an hour had passed since going down the mountain, and everyone was panting and sweating profusely, but the girl's hand in front of her was as cold as ice.

Yan Yuan said lightly: "It's okay, I have a cold body, and I've always been afraid of the cold rather than the heat."

The woman was skeptical, and stretched out her hand to rub Yan Yuan's fingertips: "The little girl's house is so cold, it's not okay, she has to find a doctor for treatment, and she will marry in the future..."

She swallowed her words halfway, and retracted her hand awkwardly.

She almost forgot that the girl in front of her was already on the way to get married, and they were the ones who tied her up here, and it was a disaster for her for the rest of her life...

The woman felt ashamed, and only wished that there was no crack in the ground to get in.

"I'm sorry, girl, our head of the family... was also forced to help..."

Yan Yuan rubbed her hands together, and breathed lightly into her palms: "What kind of difficulties?"

Perhaps the woman didn't expect Yan Yuan to ask, she was taken aback suddenly, and after a long time, she sighed softly.

"The head of the family has a younger sister..."

This is the first time Yan Yuan heard the full version of the story.

The leader of this group of kidnappers was originally a horse bandit who made a living outside the customs. Many years ago, he had washed his hands in the gold basin and started a business as a merchant bodyguard.Three years ago, because his younger sister, A Yuan, had reached the age of marriage, the head of the family came to Guannei, and wanted to find a good marriage for her to live a peaceful life, but because of her not-so-glamorous past, her younger sister's marriage was repeatedly frustrated.

After coming and going again and again, A Yuan became discouraged.That day, she heard a passer-by mention that the imperial city of Kyoto was recruiting court ladies, so she thought about secretly hiding it from the head of the family to apply for the draft.

Since then, she has never been seen again.

The kidnapper brother couldn't find A Yuan, and when he went to check the roster of the palace selection, he found that there was no name of his own A Yuan.

"Could it be that you didn't enter the palace at all?" Yan Yuan listened quietly and thought about it.

It is not uncommon for a little girl to go to Beijing alone and encounter an accident on the way.

What's more, my elder brother is a horse bandit, how could such a person pass the screening for entering the palace?
The woman sighed and shook her head: "I don't know, the master has tried his best to find A Yuan over the years..."

While looking for A Yuan, the kidnapper brother also recruited some people who also went to Beijing to complain and refused to leave. He simply prevented the big guy from packing up a mountain and built a shelter, which continued for several years. Find clues about my sister.

Until half a month ago, someone took a roster and found the kidnapper brother.

The man claimed that he could help them find their missing relatives in the palace, the only condition was:

A female family member was taken away and detained for three days.

Yan Yuan is that female family member.

……

Fortunately, the way down the mountain was safe and sound. Most of the officers and soldiers had already surrounded the top of the mountain. There were only a few simple guard posts left at the foot of the mountain. They easily bypassed them and sneaked to the agreed place. .

At dawn, the men on the mountain finally arrived at the agreed place.

Some died, some were wounded, but half survived.

This is already the best ending.

It rained and it was fine.

The kidnapper elder brother escorted Yan Yuan into the city as agreed.

They changed into clean clothes, disguised as a group of passing merchants, and slowly passed the guard post entering the city.

Along the way, the woman chattered in a low voice: "Girl, don't worry, when you enter the city, you will say that you are going to visit relatives in the countryside. No one will know that you have been tied up, but don't be foolish. Don't even say..."

Yan Yuan lowered her head and listened, burying her head in her fur collar.

"Stop." Sure enough, the guard stopped Yan Yuan: "Who is it? Is it so cold? Show your face."

Yan Yuan raised her head, revealing a pale face.

The big brother of the kidnapper stuffed a small piece of gold into the guard's palm, and said in a low voice, "This is sister She, she is poorly made, so she wears a lot of clothes... I want to go to the city to find a trustworthy husband..."

The guard weighed the gold in his hand, and a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "You are a good brother, but the imperial capital is not living well these days. Women and children can enter, but you cannot."

The big brother of the kidnapper thanked him repeatedly: "Of course, please rest assured, I only have sisters."

The goal was achieved, and everyone watched the figure of the meat ticket girl slowly walk into the city. Before they could breathe a sigh of relief, they saw the meat ticket girl turned back and walked slowly in front of the kidnapper brother.

"You..." The kidnapper brother opened his mouth.

"What's your sister's name?" Yan Yuan asked looking at his scar.

"...He Yuan." The kidnapper brother was stunned for a long time before replying, "Why are you asking this?"

"It's nothing, I may also go to the palace to work in the near future, so I'll help you ask."

Yan Yuan answered lightly, then turned around and went to the city again.

The kidnapper brother was stunned for a while, not understanding what she meant by asking by the way, but just stared at her back as she walked further and further away.

Suddenly, for a moment, an impulse surged in his chest.He wanted to stop her and tell her that if she was rejected by her husband's family because of being kidnapped this time, and her original marriage was ruined, then... just go out of the city to find your elder brother!

However, he did not speak in the end.

Because this time, Yan Yuan never looked back.

Yan Yuan entered the city, went around, and found the most elegant restaurant in the downtown area.

She walked into the restaurant, booked a private room, ordered a table of dishes, then pulled out the hairpin on her head, and discussed with the waiter in a good voice: "The hairpin is made of jade, can I use it to pay for the meal?" ?”

The waiter in the shop in the imperial capital city is well-informed, he just glanced at it, and took the hairpin respectfully, with a flattering smile on every wrinkle on his face: "I don't know much about these jade articles, can the girl accept it?" Take the small one to give the shopkeeper an eye?"

"can."

Yan Yuan nodded, and handed the hairpin to the waiter.

The waiter carefully carried the jade hairpin and left.

Half an hour later, the city defense army surrounded the restaurant completely, and the city defense army in armor drove away all the diners, went straight to the second floor wing of the restaurant, and bowed their knees to Yan Yuan:

"Humble job Yang Fang, it's late to pick you up."
