Abandoned Concubine

Chapter 38 In the alley, a dark shadow slowly walked into

Lifting her foot, she wanted to move forward.

Not for anything else, just for stuttering, with her friendship with Mingyue and Qiangwei, this can still be done.

Full of confidence, the steps are calm.

However, a few men in black with bows and crossbows jumped down from the high wall, their faces fixed, and they pointed at her with their bows and crossbows.

She staggered and froze.

"Aren't you guys helping me?" She asked tentatively.

"Stop." The man in black said in the middle.

"Not allowed to go?" Chu Sijiu understood.

She was only sensible, turned her head silently, frowned slightly, and thought to herself.

These people are both enemies and friends, what kind of drama do they sing?
Looking down from the eaves, in a quiet alley, there is a small person, flicking the sleeves of his robe lightly, walking with a lot of thoughts, and dejectedly, the faint light of the lantern shone on his body, and a group of dizzy shadows followed on the ground .

At this moment, she is like a kitten that has been separated from its owner. After being bullied, she has to resentfully... Endure it.

If she looked up, she might be able to see two black shadows hidden in the dark place of the eaves in front of her.

If you look carefully, you can also find that it is Dongfang Hao and Xiao Jian.

"My lord, Madam Ru can really run." Xiao Jian was a little tongue-tied.

"She wanders the streets every day, and her toes have already been practiced." Dongfang Hao said calmly.

"Should I find a room for Mrs. Ru to rest for a while?" Xiao Jian wondered what the prince was thinking.

Dongfang Hao snorted coldly, and stared at Chu Sijiu condescendingly, his handsome facial features were somewhat hostile, "It's so comfortable, I don't have a long memory."

Xiao Jian understood, shut his mouth tightly, and stopped talking.

On the street, Chu Sijiu had already turned out of the alley, standing on the street looking around, she probably guessed who was protecting her.

Besides Dongfang Hao, a prince who only cares about face, who else would stop her from entering the brothel?

Grinding your teeth secretly, you should give me something to eat.

She suddenly raised her head and yelled at Leng Kong, "I'm starving to death."

With the sudden sound, the two people on the eaves were startled by her, and subconsciously took two steps towards the dark place.

When they reacted and looked down again, Chu Sijiu had already lowered his head, and found a corner to sit down on the side of the street in desperation.

Dongfang Hao's complexion was ashen, and there were thorns in his eyes, wishing to prick a hole in Chu Sijiu's body.

"Do you want to find something to eat for Mrs. Ru?" Xiao Jian felt that this matter was not easy to handle.

"You can't starve to death overnight." The voice was cold and swishing, as if he was angry.

Xiao Jian quickly shut his mouth and paid attention to the movement around him.

Standing tall and looking far away, I watched another group of killers rushing here.

"My lord, the number of killers sent this time is beyond imagination." Xiao Jianning raised his eyebrows. It has been almost two hours, and reinforcements are still pouring in.

"Let this dial come over and drive her away." Dongfang Hao glanced in the direction of the brothel in annoyance, it was so late, and there were still intermittent voices.

"Yes, my lord." Xiao Jian jumped down lightly, and whispered to Mingsha, the boss of the twelve guards.

……

Not only was Chu Sijiu hungry, but she was also sleepy, barely opening her eyes and drawing circles.

His mind turned slowly.

The one who saved her was Dongfang Hao, so who would kill her?Like locusts, they swarmed in, endlessly.

Look at the clothes and accessories that seem to belong to different camps?

Just as she was thinking, hurried footsteps came from her ears, and another group of black-clothed killers ran towards her, sending messages to each other, "Here, hurry up."

Chu Sijiu wanted to pretend to be dead, but seeing the shining steel knife, he couldn't bear to give up his life.

I had to stand up and continue to run forward.

Dizzy, she also lost direction.

Anyway, she will run no matter how others chase her away.

Finally, a crossbowman came out to intercept her. She turned into an alley, walked a dozen steps deep, and slid to the ground against a corner.

……

It was dark in the alley, only the stone lamp at the entrance of the alley still had some dim light.

Chu Sijiu sat leaning against the corner of the wall, with her arms around her knees, her head resting on her arms, and fell asleep unknowingly.

At this time, her hairline was disheveled, her face was sweaty and dusty, her clothes were wrinkled like dried vegetables, and she still had a sour smell on her body.

Her state can be compared with that of a beggar.

When the clapper sounded at the third watch, the sound of fighting outside stopped suddenly, and the killers began to retreat in a planned way.After all, it is at the feet of the emperor, and there is a limit to covering the sky with one hand, and it is necessary to allow time to clean the battlefield.

In the alley, a dark shadow slowly walked in.

Arms behind his back, he stood in front of Chu Sijiu and looked at it for a long time.

The alley is ventilated, and the small body huddled in the corner is getting tighter and tighter, curled up together, looking extremely pitiful.

The man wanted to leave at first, turned around and took a few steps, then turned back helplessly, bent down and hugged her.

The sour smell mixed with his fresh and pleasant agarwood, was as complicated and difficult to distinguish as his emotions.

When he reached the alley, he said in a deep voice, "Look for a room."

"Yes, my lord." Immediately someone went down to make arrangements.

The woman in her arms felt the comfort of this embrace, and stretched her arms around his waist, like an octopus, holding him tightly, sleeping even more soundly.

……

Chu Sijiu had a dream.

In the dream, she wandered around a solemn temple, the Buddha statue was molded with gold leaf, and looked very rich.She went around, feeling that the gold had something to do with her.

Devoted men and women bowed outside, and the Buddha had two horns, so I couldn't tell what it was for.

Gillian entered hand in hand with a vague-looking man, she smiled and looked extremely cheerful.

Excited, Chu Sijiu jumped over to greet her, but Gillian walked straight over as if she hadn't seen her.

"A-Jiao." She called eagerly.

The vague-looking man next to her took a look at her, and said strangely, "You didn't drink Mengpo soup?"

She jumped back in fright. Who is this person who can peek out her secret?

The incense in the temple was very prosperous, and people kept bringing gold and silver in to add sesame oil.

A big family came in, and upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the Chu family.The father Chu Dejun was the first, followed by the mother, the eldest sister Chu Si'en, and the third sister Chu Sihui were among them.

They all walked past her with gloomy faces and lowered heads.

"Father, mother, elder sister, third younger sister..." she called loudly.

No one paid attention to her, but instead her body jolted inexplicably, and then she saw a big crack in the ground.

The scene changed suddenly, the noble and majestic temple was seen, and the empty wilderness was full of gloomy winds.That seam still exists, and there is a strong suction inside, sucking the Chu family members down.

Chu Sijiu stared at the relatives falling down one after another.

The eldest sister, Chu Si'en, was more resigned to her fate, with a gloomy expression, and disappeared between the cracks of the ground with half-closed eyes.

The third sister, Chu Sihui, was very unwilling. Before she fell into the trap, she stared in the direction of Chu Sijiu, her eyes were dull, "Second sister, take revenge!"

She raised her eyebrows in shock and screamed, "Ah... ah... ah..."

There was another turbulence, and then, she seemed to have floated into the clouds, feeling warm and comfortable, with a light and elegant agarwood fragrance lingering in her nostrils, which lingered for a long time.

Finally, there was no dream, and she fell asleep peacefully.

　Ah Jiu: "The baby is starving to death!"

　　Prince: "If you're not hungry, you won't have a long memory."

　　Ah Jiu: "If you're too hungry, you won't have a long memory."

　　Prince: "Always give it a try."

　　Ah Jiu: "..."
