Embroidered golden branches

Chapter 56 Night Road
It was too late and then too fast, at the critical moment, a figure appeared in front of the two of them. That person was like a majestic mountain, making people feel inexplicably at ease in their hearts.

The man reached out and grabbed the horse's reins, pulled it back hard, then jumped on the horse and controlled the horse's head to the other side.

Sangsang stood there in shock, feeling as if her soul had dissipated.

After a long time, he finally came back to his senses.

She wanted to step forward to say thank you, but the man was riding a horse, his body facing the light, and he couldn't see his face clearly.

"You're frightened, girl."

After saying this, the man rode away on horseback.

Sangsang opened her mouth, but before she could say her thanks, the man had disappeared.

Sequoia immediately stepped forward to check if Sangsang was injured.

"Miss Biao, are you okay?"

Hearing the sound, Sangsang looked away and shook his head.

"I'm fine. Go to the embroidery workshop quickly. The lady boss must be waiting in a hurry."

The two people hurriedly walked towards the embroidery workshop, and sure enough, they saw the proprietress waiting at the door from a distance.

She stamped her feet anxiously and kept looking to the side.

Until he saw Sang Sang and Sequoia coming together, he hurriedly greeted them.

"Why did you come just now? I'm really worried. I heard it's not peaceful outside, so I thought something had happened to you!"

Sangsang said calmly: "I'm sorry for your trouble."

"Come in quickly!" The landlady took Sangsang's hand and entered the door, then quickly closed the door.

"Some bandits have been particularly rampant in the capital recently. Didn't you see that I hired a few thugs in front of my door? I'm just afraid that those people will come and cause trouble."

The two of them walked towards the backyard while talking.

Sangsang wondered: "This is the emperor's feet, how can someone be so arrogant?"

"I heard that the man in the palace will soon die. I don't know whether it is true or not, so many cases are ready to be taken action."

The voice of the landlady became softer and softer, until she finally sighed.

"Anyway, this is just hearsay. Just listen to it for fun. Don't tell anyone. This is a serious crime of decapitation!"

Sangsang nodded obediently.

"Don't worry, I'm only focused on dyeing the cloth."

The proprietress took Sangsang to a room in the backyard and asked her to check the finished products of the past few days.

When he opened the door, he saw a dark blue robe with exquisite embroidery work.

Just seeing it from a distance, I felt that this run was extraordinary.

"If you hadn't said that there was only one like this in the world, I would have had to rush out a few pieces. Clothes like this will definitely be liked by the old ladies of the aristocratic families!"

The landlady said, staring at the dress with bright eyes.

Sangsang smiled and said: "I also have other styles for you, but this style can only be made for this one. This is a gift for our old lady."

The landlady was smiling from ear to ear.

"I know, don't worry, I won't let anyone leak it. I have burned your draft."

Sang Sang naturally believed in the landlady. After all, she knew that the landlady was smart and she could still afford the price of hundreds of pieces of clothing.

"After today, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to go out again. I will still let Sequoia deliver drawings to you in the future." Sangsang said rather reluctantly.

The landlady also sighed. "I understand. It's really not easy for you to be in a mansion. If I get free time, I'll go see you."

After getting along with each other for the past few days, the relationship between the two gradually deepened. The landlady naturally hoped that Sang Sang could stay, but he also knew that Sang Sang could not help himself, so he did not try to persuade her to stay.

For the whole day, Sangsang was still dyeing cloth. As the workers who dyed the cloth gradually became familiar with Sangsang, they also hoped that Sangsang could stay, but Sangsang just smiled and said nothing.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the day quickly disappeared.

The landlady asked people to put the finished robes into exquisite boxes, handed them to Sangsang, and sent Sangsang to the door.

But this time I was a little confused, why was the carriage that was supposed to be parked at the door to take Sangsang back home not there?

She frowned and asked, "Where is Master Wei?"

Sangsang smiled calmly and said, "Maybe something happened."

"Oh, this is terrible. I thought the young master would come to pick you up as usual, so I hired the carriage. What should I do now?"

After hearing what the landlady said, Sangsang looked up at the moonlight.

The moon hung high, and the moonlight shone like water, reflecting the whole earth, making the whole street look much brighter.

"It's okay, it's not far away anyway, I'll just walk back with Sequoia."

"This is impossible!" The landlady refused immediately.

"You forgot what I told you today. The streets are not peaceful these days. If something happens to you, how can I explain to the people of the Wei family?"

Thinking about it, the landlady seemed to have thought of something, so she hurriedly went back and called two thugs.

"I asked the two of them to follow you and take you to the gate of Wei Mansion. What do you think?"

Sangsang thought for a moment and nodded.

After all, he had just experienced life and death in the market today, Sangsang was still a little panicked, so he led the two thugs towards the Wei Mansion.

It was quiet along the way, with only the footsteps of four people walking on the road. Occasionally, a gust of wind blew, making people shiver all over.

Sequoia couldn't help complaining: "This young master doesn't know what he is going to do. He promised to pick up his cousin in the evening, but he still hasn't come yet!"

Sangsang smiled and said, "Maybe we were delayed because of something. Anyway, it's close. We'll be there soon."

"Miss Cousin, you have a big heart. I think it's the young lady who is pestering the young master to prevent him from picking you up!"

Sequoia felt chilled when he thought of Wei Lingyin's attitude towards Sangsang.

After all, they are somewhat related by blood, so why are Meimei targeting Miss Cousin?
I was lost in thought when I suddenly turned my head and saw something on the ground in front of me from a distance.

Taking a closer look, it seems to be a person?

Sequoia slowly approached, and then he was sure that the one lying on the ground was one!
"Ah!" She yelled and ran back until she reached Sangsang's side and took Sangsang's hand.

"My dear cousin, come on, there's a body lying on the ground!"

"What?" Sang Sang was also shocked, and her thoughts were a little flustered.

At this time, the person lying on the ground screamed weakly.

"Help……"

Hearing the sound, Sangsang wanted to step forward boldly, but Sequoia held her hand tightly and refused to let her go.

"Miss Cousin, you must not go. That person may be a good guy or a bad guy. We'd better take a detour as soon as possible!"

Sangsang thought for a while, frowned and said, "Now that we've seen it, we can't just ignore it!"
