After fetal transfusion: Huang Ama, your royal mausoleum has been stolen
Chapter 399: The Wrong Carriage
Xue Jing still didn't know what happened at home after he left.
At this moment, he was holding on to the last glimmer of hope and hurriedly ran to the gate of the mansion.
I was thinking, what if?
What if Xirui and her group's convoy just set off a little late, what if she saw that he didn't go to see them off and was still waiting at the city gate?
Although the chance is slim, as long as he has not personally confirmed it, he will always hold on to hope.
After all, the communication channel is of no use for the time being.
Instead of waiting at home for the communication channel to be opened, he might as well go out and see what's going on.
"No need for the carriage, it's too slow." With this thought in mind, Xue Jing gave the order while walking around the coachman who was coming towards him.
He paid no attention to the carriage that had stopped at the door, but turned around and snatched the reins from the servant.
Before they could react, he jumped on his horse, avoided the crowded main road, and rushed along the alley towards the city gate.
Everyone who was waiting at the gate of the mansion was caught off guard by his action.
Only the servant whose reins were snatched away by Xue Jing came to his senses the fastest. He hurriedly took another horse and followed.
The master and servant rushed to the west gate one after another.
"Master, look quickly. There is a team of horse-drawn carriages leaving the city gate. Could they be Miss Huang and her group?" Riding closely behind Xue Jing was Dadong's younger brother Erdong.
The two brothers were both servants of the Xue family. They were not much different in age and just happened to serve as servants for Xue Jing, one after the other.
Now Dadong is still stuck in the mansion and can't get away. This gives Erdong a chance to show up.
He knew why his master rushed out in such a hurry this time. As soon as he saw the suspected target, he immediately started shouting.
"Gee~" Following Erdong's instructions, Xue Jing soon spotted the convoy at the city gate.
Before he could see the mark on the carriage clearly from a distance, his heart began to beat violently uncontrollably.
It was as if he was celebrating that he finally caught up.
"Wait..." Wait...
Seeing that the convoy in front had passed the soldiers' inspection and was about to set off, Xue Jing did not bother to take a closer look at where they were. He just opened his mouth and thought about stopping the people first.
However, he had just said half of the word "wait" when, as the distance between the two sides shortened, Xue Jing was able to see the mark on the other party's carriage first.
This is not the Huang family’s carriage, and the person in the carriage is not Xirui.
This realization was enough to calm Xue Jing's slightly heated head instantly.
The second word "wait" couldn't be uttered at all.
Xue Jing subconsciously loosened the reins in his hand and slowed down.
Since this group of people is not Xirui and her group, he may have missed them.
If I want to see him again, perhaps the only option is to try to chase him a few more miles forward.
Xue Jing was somewhat tempted, and took Erdong with him to join the team that was leaving the city to be investigated.
Just because he didn't pay much attention to the mistaken carriage, it didn't mean that the people in the carriage didn't notice him.
Before he had the chance to join the queue waiting to be checked before leaving the city, the curtain of one of the carriages that he had glanced at and ignored suddenly lifted.
A pretty little face just happened to be revealed.
As soon as his eyes locked onto Xue Jing, he stopped moving, "Second Brother Xue? Is it really you?"
His tone was familiar and also contained a hint of surprise. "Just now I heard a shout, it sounded very much like your voice. I thought I had misheard it, but it turned out to be you."
"It seems that my ears are still very sensitive. I can hear it right away." Chen Xuenniang tilted her palm-sized face and said this with excitement on her face.
Xue Jing didn't expect to see Chen Xuenniang here. He was so surprised that he turned around and left much more slowly.
It was only a moment, but it was enough for the others in the carriage to react.
"Is it Xiao Jing?" Chen Xin's voice came from the front carriage.
Then he also lifted the car curtain.
Now, Xue Jing couldn't pretend that he saw nothing.
"Uncle Xin." Xue Jing drove his horse forward a few steps and shouted.
When Chen Xin first saw Xue Jing, he was very surprised, "It's really you. I thought Xue Niang had heard it wrong."
"Why are you here suddenly?" Chen Xin asked puzzledly.
"Could it be that you heard that we were going to leave Suzhou for a while and came to see us off?" The two hadn't seen each other for some time, so there was a hint of joking in Chen Xin's words.
Xue Jing felt a little embarrassed after hearing what he said.
After all, he wasn't really here to see them off.
He didn't even know that Chen Xin's family was going out of town today.
"Uh..." Xue Jing didn't want to lie to Chen Xin about such an obvious question, and he couldn't stop showing embarrassment on his face.
"Puff!" How could Chen Xin not know him?
This child is very familiar with him, and his thoughts are written on his face. One can understand everything by looking at his expression.
Besides, it was his fault that he did not inform Xue Jing about his itinerary in advance, so it was not his fault that others did not know.
Chen Xin didn't really intend to accuse Xue Jing, but he had been troubled by many things this morning, so he just wanted to tease Xue Jing. "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. Looking at you, I wonder if you are also so tongue-tied when you are discussing things outside."
"Don't block the way here and talk. Aren't we going out of the city? Together?" Chen Xin invited them to join his team temporarily.
The city gate, with people coming and going, is definitely not a good place to talk.
After just a few words, Xue Jing could clearly feel the commotion in the team.
They really couldn't stay here any longer.
Xue Jing thought about it and didn't refuse.
They didn't bring anything with them, just him and Erdong and their two horses, so there was no need to check them carefully.
The soldiers guarding the city just glanced at them and let them go.
After the carriage had moved forward for dozens of meters and no longer occupied the space at the city gate, Chen Xin stuck his head out again.
He waved at Xue Jing and asked, "Why are you leaving the city?"
The group only brought Erdong with them, and it didn't seem like they were going to do anything important.
Xue Jing couldn't tell her that he was going to chase Xirui, so he just made up an excuse and said, "I'm bored staying at home, so I'm going out of town to run some horses and stretch my muscles."
It was not an answer that could withstand careful scrutiny, so Xue Jing simply brushed it off.
Then he threw the question back, "Where is Uncle Xin going with his family?"
The caravan contained not only horse-drawn carriages for passengers, but also carts for carrying goods, on which were tightly tied all kinds of boxes and cages.
It looks like he's going on a long journey.
