Twin Brocade

Chapter 389 What a coincidence

Fortunately, the servant girl was also clever, and answered one by one: "Our girl sent the servant girl to find you. The servant girl has already asked the maids present to find Miss Su and our wife respectively. We already know about it. Miss Ling is still there, and someone is waiting for her."

It sounded like it was handled well, but Fang Jinshu always felt that something was wrong, so she took a few steps quickly and called out, "Big sister, wait for me!"

Fang Jinhui looked anxious, and said: "There is still a distance to go here, I don't know if it will be in time, we should hurry up."

Time is urgent, and there is no room for careful consideration.Fang Jinshu quickly followed her, and said, "There are so many people here, including Sister Ling. I think we will delay the time so that Sister Qing will not suffer a big loss."

She said this to appease Fang Jinhui's emotions, but in fact, why is she not in a hurry?
She understands Princess Baochun's temperament quite well, she is defiant and uncertain.Even she was not sure whether Princess Baochun did it on a whim or on purpose.

In short, it is better to arrive as soon as possible, so that we can adapt to the situation when we understand the situation.In any case, just hold Princess Baochun and wait for Su Juzhen or Mrs. Wu to come.Since someone had already informed them, it would not be too late.

Thinking in this way, the two sisters followed the maid who led the way, and hurried to Merlin.

There are several roads from here, and the nearest road only needs to cross a bamboo bridge, and it takes at most a quarter of an hour to get there.But when they got to the bridge, they found several people guarding there, the leader was an aunt in charge of the palace.

Fang Jinshu and Fang Jinhui looked at each other, Fang Jinhui nodded, stepped forward and asked, "Auntie, what's the matter?"

"I've met the girl." The aunt said: "When we were inspecting, we found that some bamboo boards on the bridge were loose, and we have found someone to check the bridge body. The girls should go another way, I'm afraid here in danger."

"This..." Fang Jinhui looked anxiously at the road across the bridge. If they wanted to make another detour, it would take a long time.I don't know if Wu Wanqing's place can still hold on, and if the others can arrive in time.

From this incident, Fang Jinshu smelled a conspiracy.These things, if they appear alone, are nothing.How can there be such a coincidence at this time of rush?
Could it be that Princess Baochun is really going to attack Wu Wanqing?They have encountered obstacles here, and there is no guarantee that they will appear elsewhere.Thinking of this, Fang Jinshu's heart tightened.

"Auntie," Fang Jinshu took a step forward, and said, "We're in a hurry, it's just a few bamboo boards, let's be careful. If anything happens, I won't blame you, Auntie."

As she spoke, she signaled Fang Fei to come forward, and stuffed a purse into her hand.

"No, no." The aunt in charge said righteously: "Please take it back, I'm just doing my duty. The most important thing for girls to play is safety. In such a cold day, if you really slip into the water, If you don't blame me, the palace will also blame me."

After she said so, she waved her hands to let two servants block the way.Fang Jinshu had no choice but to retreat together with Fang Jinhui and take another route.

And this road is a little farther away, and you have to walk half a circle around the path of the lake next to Meilin before you can go up.In desperation, the two had no choice but to suppress their anxiety and quicken their pace.

As soon as I walked to the lake, I saw a group of people coming from a distance.

It was the prince's second son, Wei Jiahang, who took the lead, and behind him were some courtiers' children, with guards on both sides.

The back mountain of Meiying Hall is not limited to female relatives, and it is not uncommon to meet men here.Generally speaking, they are the family members of civil servants, and the fathers are officials in the same dynasty.The two parties met the ceremony in a graceful manner, that's all.

It's just that today's situation is a little special.

When Fang Jinshu saw them, he stopped in his tracks, saluted far away, and then hid to one side.There was only one road by the lake, and time was running out, so she didn't want to delay, she just hoped that they would walk across as soon as possible.

Behind them, there are shrubs about a person's height.Dodging like this, he avoided the edge of the bush.At first, I didn't think there was anything wrong, but after a while, I heard a rustling sound coming from behind, from far to near.

"Not good! Let's go." Fang Jinshu's hairs stood on end, pulling Fang Jinhui forward in a hurry.

At this time, I don't care about any big problems between men and women, and the etiquette teaching.If she was not mistaken, a fishy smell in the air told her that it was most likely a poisonous snake.

When life is at stake, it doesn't matter if the judgment is wrong.

Qiao Hua, Fang Fei, and the maid serving Wu Wanqing also ran forward with them.

Several people ran a short distance, and from the bush where they were just now, a colorful poisonous snake sprang out like lightning.The crown on its head was bright red, and it hissed out snake letters, as thick as a child's arm.

Hearing the movement, Qiao Hua turned her head to look, and let out a scream of "Ah!", her face was white with fright.

"Girl, girl, go away!" There was a cry in her voice, and her body couldn't help shaking.However, the man stopped and stood behind with his arms outstretched.

"Don't be stupid, let's go!" Fang Jinhui said anxiously.

Qiao Hua is the servant girl who followed her, and she has been with her for more than three years, and she has always been well-behaved and not outstanding.Unexpectedly, at this moment, she would have the courage to protect the Lord loyally.

"Don't be afraid!" Fang Fei grew up in the countryside, and she has seen many snakes and insects, and she is much calmer than Qiao Hua.When she was in Jingyi nunnery, she practiced martial arts with Fang Jinshu.Although she is not considered a master, her skills, legs and feet far exceed that of ordinary maids.

I saw her jumping up, breaking off a branch beside the road and holding it in her hand, ready to fight.

"Let's go." Fang Jinshu pulled Fang Jinhui, who was still in a daze, and said in a low voice, "Let's call someone."

This meeting is not the time for mother-in-law to hesitate.That snake is poisonous at first glance, and it won't help if they stay here.Wei Jiahang and the others were not far away, as long as they ran there, they could bring in reinforcements.

It's slow to say, since the whole thing happened in less than a cup of tea.

The people at Wei Jiahang's side also noticed the movement here. A man looked around and said, "Your Majesty, something seems to have happened over there. I want to order the guards to go and have a look."

Not far away, the woman's screams and the figure running hurriedly can be clearly seen.If Wei Jiahang hadn't been there, he would have sent someone to rescue him.

But among the people present, Wei Jiahang, the county king, had the highest status.He did not give orders, and no one dared to go past him.But he stood there, looking around slowly for a moment, as leisurely as looking at the scenery, and did not give an order for a long time.
