C56 King Qin saved the princess (2/2)
Yue Pengju jumped down from the horse. Lee's hugged the young miss who was about to faint, but suddenly seeing Yue Pengju was as if he had seen his savior. He was so excited that he almost fell off the horse.
Wan Wan also recognized him. She only called him ”Big Brother Yue”, tilted her body, and fell off the horse. Before Yue Pengju could help her, she fell to the ground. Fortunately, the snow had accumulated quite a bit and she was not injured by the fall, hence Yue Pengju hurriedly helped her up. Her face was covered in tears as she said, ”Big Brother Yue, save us, take me away …”
”Alright, I'll take you with me.”
Yue Pengju helped her up onto the horse, then helped Lee's as he kneeled down on the ground. ”Young Master Yue, you are the best, we both don't know how to ride horses, and there were several times where we fell off the horse together with my young miss. If you continue to ride like this, you will die, so please bring my young miss along …” Then, he turned to Hua Rong and said, ”Miss Hua, please, let your brother save my family's young miss …”
Hua Rong dismounted, helped her up, and let out a long sigh. ”Pengju, you bring Wan Wan while I take milkmaid, let's go …”
”Thank you for your great kindness. old body and Miss will never forget it …”
In a moment of desperation, the two of them had no other choice. Hua Rong helped Lee's onto his horse, and with Wan Wan in her arms, the two horses galloped away.
Hua Rong and Lee's ran until the horse was slightly slower. Lee's said: ”This time, it's all thanks to your husband that you saved me …”
Hua Rong frowned: ”What did you say?”
”Save our benefactor, claiming to be his. He said he's your husband, and he's looking for you …”
”No, he's not mine!” Hua Rong interrupted sher, and when the Lee's saw her displeasure, he did not dare say anymore.
Hua Rong sighed to herself, with such a chaotic world, what's the point of the King Qin continuing to look for him? She had been hiding from him all this time, but how long could she possibly hide from him? But what if she faced it?
Along the way, Yue Pengju had only met a few Song Soldiers who were plundering the 'Negotiation of Gold'. One day, the snow had stopped, the weather was clear, and the long-missed sun had finally come out.
There was no need to talk about the hunger and fear along the way. On the evening of the third day, they finally arrived at the border of the magnetic field region.
Although the distance from here to the capital was less than a hundred li, they were able to temporarily avoid the range of the Golden Man's raids.
Yue Pengju went out to look for wild animals. Hua Rong was boiling water in the house, the firewood was a little moist, and the smoke that filled the house was very thick. Wan Wan had never experienced this kind of suffering before.
The Lee's hurriedly comforted her, ”Miss, everything will be fine once we find the Ninth Prince.”
Her eyes rolled around as she looked at Hua Rong who was boiling water beside her: ”Aren't you feeling uncomfortable?”
Hua Rong laughed and shook her head. If this was really children's words, then if she did not ignite the fire due to the discomfort, no one would need to drink the water.
Wan Wan was bored out of her mind, and when she heard a voice from outside, ”Big Brother Yue must have returned …” She jumped up to open the door, and saw that Yue Pengju had returned with two wild chickens in his hands.
”Big Brother Yue …” She cried out once she saw Yue Pengju holding onto his spear and prey, standing tall and straight, his eyes wide open, and his facial features handsome. In this dynasty's world of literature, all men are weak, especially the royal disciples, they are more delicate and handsome, lacking in bravery and courage, each and every one of them having a Empress accent. Seeing Yue Pengju's heroic and graceful appearance, she felt that she had never seen such an arrogant man in her life before. Her heart was thumping hard, as though as long as she saw him standing in front of her, she would stop everything and not be afraid of the chaotic army anymore.
She smiled as she caught the wild chicken in his hand. ”Big Brother Yue, quickly come in and roast the meat. It's so cold …”
”Thank you.”
Yue Pengju walked in and sat beside Hua Rong. When Hua Rong saw that he was covered in snow and wind, he extended his hand to help him wipe it away. She said gently: ”Drink a mouthful of hot water first, and don't freeze …”
Yue Pengju saw that her face was covered with a piece of smoke and ashes, so he naturally wiped her face with his thumb and took the firewood from her hands: ”Elder sister, your body hasn't fully recovered in the past few days, go and rest first, leave this place to me.”
Wan Wan plucked a few beautiful feathers and held them in her hands, seeing that Yue Pengju was going to help Hua Rong, he was no longer afraid to smoke, and followed him to sit down, but saw that the two of them acted extremely intimately, and it was rather boring for him to sit by the side. After a while, he asked: Big Brother Yue, where did you get such a beautiful wild chicken?
”I was lucky today.”
As he spoke, he took out a dagger and skillfully killed the pheasants. He stripped them naked and adjusted them a little. He then placed them on the fire to roast. After a while, a rich smell of meat wafted into the air.
”Big Brother Yue, it smells so good. You are really capable. ”
Lee's laughed: ”Young Master Yue is truly omnipotent.”
”With Big Brother Yue here, we won't need to be afraid of anything along the way …”
”Young Master Yue is little miss's benefactor, look at the princess, sigh, even the princess was taken away by her …”
”milkmaid …”
As if he knew that he said something wrong, Lee's did not continue.
Seeing the two of them praising Yue Pengju so much, and seeing Wan Wan's young girl's gaze, which was filled with undisguised admiration and gratitude, Hua Rong's heart trembled. Could it be that this young lady had fallen for Penga?
Yue Pengju had never interacted with women so much in his life, and seeing the two of them praising each other, he did not say much and split the roasted chicken into two parts, one half for Wan Wan and the other half for Lee's.
Wan Wan was just about to enjoy this rare delicacy happily when she saw Yue Pengju take the other roasted chicken and split it into half. However, she did not take half of the roasted chicken, but carefully tore off the chicken leg and gave both of them to Hua Rong. As she ate, she gave her water to cool down a bit. ”Elder sister, don't scald …”
