The Female Assistant of Wei Yuyan Shuangfei

Chapter 152 What a coincidence

On the wilderness official road, Xiang Lin did not fly the flag of the Fuwei Escort Agency as instructed, and he kept some distance from Xie Shuting's carriage.

The two teams seemed to have a tacit understanding and drove slowly on the official road. Even if people could sense that there was something fishy going on, they couldn't figure it out for a while.

Xie Shuting put down the book in her hand, lifted the curtain to look at the scenery outside the car, and asked softly: "Xi'er! Where are we now?"

"Miss! We have arrived at Qinghe County. After crossing the hill ahead, we will reach Laigu County in half a day's walk. I'm afraid we will have to rest at the post station outside the city today."

"No problem."

As Xie Shuting spoke, she rolled up the curtain, spread out the rice paper on the table, and began to ponder with a pen in hand.

"New Year's Day will be here in a few days. I wonder if everything is going well for you in Bian Jing... or have you already forgotten me in Bian Jing." Xie Shuting murmured to herself.

“Squeak!~”

Startled by the cry of a lone goose, Xie Shuting looked up and saw the lone goose soaring in the sky, and couldn't help but smile.

Immediately! She wrote with a nimble pen: "I suddenly heard the cry of a solitary swallow on the wild path, and saw only its shadow following me on the desolate road. I greeted the evening glow and sent off the guests, but said I didn't see you in my inner chamber."

Xie Shuting blew gently on the rice paper that had not yet dried the ink. After the writing was dry, she carefully folded it and put it into an envelope.

He immediately stretched out his hand outside the carriage. Xiang Lin, who was standing behind him, saw what happened and immediately leaned over to the escort beside him and gave instructions.

The latter rode forward with a suspicious look on his face, came outside the carriage, stroked his hand and said, "Miss, do you have any instructions?"

"Please tell Chief Escort Xiang to make sure to deliver this letter to the Yan Mansion in the capital and hand it over to Young Master Yan Shuang." Xie Shuting handed over the envelope while speaking.

The escort took the envelope with a puzzled look on his face, glanced at Xiang Lin, and only when he saw the other party nod in agreement did he dare to respond with a cupped hand: "Don't worry, Miss, I will definitely do it."

The escort master did not dare to delay. He bowed to Xiang Lin, took the escort agency's flag from his arms and put it on himself. He rode his horse past Xie Shuting's carriage and headed straight for Bian Jing.

Lian Xi, the coachman, had no idea what was happening in the carriage.

Seeing the escort rushing forward alone, he immediately whipped the whip to drive the carriage forward.

"Drive!~"

The escort galloped on his horse on the official road. As the dust spread, his figure quickly disappeared over the hilltop, which made the people who were lying in ambush in the dark feel disheartened.

"Brother! Is that escort flag from the Fuwei Escort Agency?"

"Brother! It looks like that to me too. Could it be that we ran into a tough guy again today?"

"Brother! Why don't you change someone? I'm a little scared."

As they were arguing, the sturdy man in the lead said with a sullen face, "It's just the Fuwei Escort Agency, are you scared like this?"

"Brother! It's not that we are afraid, but...Brother, think about it, we can't afford to offend the Fuwei Escort Agency, as they can force a figure like Han Shanhu to come to the city in person to apologize." One person said tremblingly.

The leading man was startled when he heard this, and said with a fierce look in his eyes: "Even if you can't afford to provoke him, you have to provoke him. Otherwise, what will you let your brothers eat in a few days?"

When the man said this, he looked around at everyone and saw that everyone's eyes were filled with fear, and he felt secretly powerless in his heart.

"Hey!~"

She sighed helplessly and quickly comforted him, "The man just now was riding a horse. It seems that he was a messenger from the Fuwei Escort Agency. He is probably an ordinary businessman. Don't worry."

"Brother! Are you serious?"

The man looked at the eager expressions of the crowd, calmed himself down, suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "Really."

This group of people were Qin Feng and his gang who were preparing to kill Song Zhen at Yanzi Cliff. They were forced to leave Yanzi Cliff only because they provoked the Fuwei Escort Agency.

Before they left Yanzi Cliff, Han Shanhu issued an ultimatum to them, forbidding them to engage in banditry outside, and distributed food to them so that they could all go back home and farm.

However, the current taxes are too heavy, and they can't even support themselves with their one-third acre of land.

Immediately! After a discussion, several people decided to follow Qin Feng's lead and lead those who were unwilling to go home to farm to rob and plunder at the border between Qinghe County and Laigu County.

After more than a month of recruitment, the team has expanded from the original thirty people to nearly a hundred people now. All the credit for this is naturally attributed to Qin Feng's "courage".

Not long after! Qin Feng, who was hiding in the dark, suddenly saw a carriage coming quickly.

Seeing that the carriage had no guards, Qin Feng immediately winked at his companions beside him, indicating that they should let the carriage go.

As soon as the carriage passed through Qin Feng's blockade, Xiang Lin led the convoy and appeared in Qin Feng's sight. Looking at the goods on the carriage, Qin Feng and his party's eyes had already lit up.

Several people looked at each other and secretly swallowed their saliva, looking at Qin Feng impatiently, waiting for his order.

The escort didn't notice anything unusual and hurried along the way, about to break through Qin Feng's encirclement.

Suddenly, the horse under Xiang Lin's seat neighed and raised its front hooves in the air.

Noticing something was wrong, Xiang Lin raised his hand and waved to stop everyone's actions, saying loudly: "Something's going on! Be alert."

As soon as Xiang Lin finished speaking, a group of people rushed out from the roadside and surrounded them.

Xie Shuting, who had already passed the blockade, also noticed something strange behind her and said coldly, "Xi'er! Stop."

If it were any other time, Lian Xi would definitely be unwilling to do this, but Chief Escort Xiang was right behind her, and she was completely confident about the young lady's safety.

"Yes!" Lian Xi responded, then he pulled the reins and stopped the carriage on the side of the official road.

The war was about to break out. The escorts were shocked but also cautious in their surroundings, fearing that the other side would shoot a sneak attack.

"Friend! This road is opened by me, please leave me some money to pay for it!"

Qin Feng walked forward slowly with a sneer. When he saw the weapons covered with black cloth in the hands of the escorts, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity in his heart.

While he was thinking, he saw Xiang Lin coming forward, glancing at the bandits, and couldn't help but laugh coldly, "Who are you from?"

"I am the head of Cuiping Peak. You just need to leave some money for passage. I don't want to see blood."

Upon hearing this, the escorts couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Hahaha! I haven't heard such an arrogant tone in a long time."

"Don't mention you. I came here two years later and I only heard about it from legends. It seems that the grass on the grave of the person who said this is so high now."

"It's this high." Another person gestured hurriedly, causing everyone to burst into laughter.

Qin Feng's expression changed again and again. Looking at the fearless people in front of him, he felt inexplicably frightened in his heart.

Qin Feng's men saw that their boss had fallen behind, so they rushed forward with knives and shouted, "Shut up, don't you know that we..."

Unexpectedly! Before the minion who wanted to show off could finish his words, he heard a sharp arrow breaking through the air, causing a stir in all directions.

“Whoosh!~”

Before everyone could come to their senses, they saw the minion pressing his throat in fear, looking back at Qin Feng in disbelief, his eyes also showing his unwillingness.
