The Female General and Xiao Fu's Wife

In the blink of an eye, only Shen Zhaoxue was left in the thatched hut. At first, the man in black made a little noise after he went out, but after a while, everything around him became quiet, dark, silent, and the atmosphere was a bit eerie and scary.

Shen Zhaoxue kept kneeling for a long time, and her feet felt numb, so she tried to get up with difficulty, her bound hands could only be behind her back, and her tied legs and feet could only move forward. She first cautiously came to the door and poked her head halfway to check, but found that there was no one outside, she felt strange in her heart, those who arrested her, and the man who tried to cheat on her just now, all disappeared.

Taking advantage of this great opportunity, Shen Zhaoxue thought twice and decided to run away.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the person rushed out of the thatched hut, a mysterious masked man came from the dark place. He was tall and thin, and Shen Zhaoxue recognized him at a glance.

"It's you."

The masked man kept the best distance from her and stopped, "I advise you to stay calm, it is estimated that someone will come to you in a while."

Shen Zhaoxue had no time to think about other things at the moment, and asked, "You saved me?"

The masked man didn't answer, nor did he intend to answer her.

At this moment, the sound of horseshoes came from not far away. Looking at the reputation, there was also a team of officers and soldiers marching with torches. Shen Zhaoxue saw the figure of the general with a look of joy on his face. When he turned around, the mask People have disappeared into the darkness.

Sima Yun rode his horse to stop in front of her, dismounted swiftly, and immediately asked her, "Are you okay?"

Shen Zhaoxue just shook her head and smirked. After this incident, she was undoubtedly lucky. She kept her innocence and her purest love for the general, and she also waited for him.

Sima Yun had no choice but to untie her first, Shen Zhaoxue obediently turned her back to her, and asked her to untie the rope for herself, but Sima Yun stopped halfway, thinking of the mysterious masked man and his final departure what was said before.

Half an hour ago.

Sima Yun led the officers and soldiers borrowed from the county magistrate to carry out a blanket search in the city of Longxi. Almost all the people in the city knew about this matter. General Sima who came from the capital had lost his wife.

But when things were like this, Sima Yun didn't care about the so-called face issue, the most important thing was to find talents.

At this time, the appearance of a mysterious masked man provided her with the most favorable clue.

"She was arrested and taken to a thatched hut in the southwest of the outskirts of the city. It's too late now."

Sima Yun silently remembered it in his heart, but he still did not forget to ask, "Who are you? Why did you do this?"

If she remembered correctly, this guy was the one who tried to arrest Zhaoxue on the night of the May Festival, why did he do this, and what was his purpose.

As the voice fell, the masked man suddenly approached, and the distance between him and Sima Yun was only a fraction of a centimeter. The two were about to meet. At this time, the masked man turned his head slightly, and said to Sima Yun's ear with his lips, "If One day, when you can no longer protect her, I will take her from you..."

After speaking, a smile appeared from the corner of the masked man's mouth and disappeared into the dark night. Sima Yun held his breath and did not dare to relax for a moment.

Finally untied, Shen Zhaoxue was touched and just wanted to ask the general how he found her, but the general seemed to be lost in thought at this moment, and seemed to be in a daze...

"General, general?" Shen Zhaoxue tentatively called her several times before she recovered.

"It's okay." Sima Yun said lightly, and then said, "Let's go back first."

Shen Zhaoxue has never ridden a horse before, and has no experience at all, so when she faced the general's horse, she suddenly encountered difficulties, but right now she can only ride back to the city on the same horse with the general, otherwise... .I'm afraid I'll have to walk until dawn with her feet.

"What's wrong?" Seeing her dazed look, Sima Yun couldn't help asking.

Shen Zhaoxue bit her lower lip and turned her head, with a complicated expression, a little embarrassed, "General... I can't... I can't ride a horse."

"No one will let you ride, I will control the rein behind you." Sima Yun said.

"Oh..." At that moment, Shen Zhaoxue felt that she was stupid and misunderstood the meaning.

Finally, with the help of the general, Shen Zhaoxue tremblingly climbed onto the horse's back. Her height increased and her field of vision expanded a lot. It turned out that this was the feeling of riding on a horseback. She was so nervous that her palms sweated. , if it falls down at such a height, the consequences are unimaginable.

Seeing the general leaping forward, the whole person rode on the horse's back, surpassing Shen Zhaoxue to hold the rein, Sima Yun would accidentally touch her body or arm from time to time, although she had already paid attention to it while riding the horse. She kept her distance.

The horseshoe started to run on the path in the forest. Shen Zhaoxue felt as if she was flying. It was exciting, joyful, and she encountered surprises from time to time. It was really an unprecedented feeling. Sometimes she felt that she was about to be thrown away. Get up, but with the general's hands protecting the left and right, I feel full of security in my heart.

Occasionally, when my back hits the general's chest, that feeling is a bit weird, not as hard as I imagined, but rather soft?But at that time, Shen Zhaoxue didn't have time to think about it.

A team of officers and soldiers followed their horses mightily. The ground was soft and muddy just after the heavy rain. The horseshoes would splash a layer of muddy water if they were not careful. in one breath.

After a while, they entered the city, and they were greeted by the curious eyes of common people on the way. Sima Yun brought Shen Zhaoxue back to the inn, and just after entering the door, the innkeeper and Xiaoer knelt down to them.

"Forgive me for being too young to see Mount Tai. Please forgive General Sima and the general's wife. The young one deserves to die, the young one really deserves to die."

Sima Yun snorted coldly, "Do you know how big a crime it is to conspire to murder the family members of a first-rank general?"

The shopkeeper was so frightened that his face turned pale and he broke out in a cold sweat, "I shouldn't have turned my eyes to money for a while, and fell into the trick of that traitor. I beg the general's wife to be merciful, to be merciful."

Shen Zhaoxue pursed her lips, unable to see such a scene, she could only ask, "Do you know where those people came from, and who is behind them?"

The shopkeeper quickly shook his head, "The young one is only in charge of performing a scene of Mrs. being arrested together with the young one, I really don't know anything else."

As soon as the words fell, a group of officers and soldiers rushed in and arrested the innkeeper. After a while, the county magistrate also came in and stroked his beard. "Now you have confessed your crime with your own mouth and brought you down."

With an order, the captured shopkeeper and the waiter were dragged out one after another. The shopkeeper wailed repeatedly, "The general is merciful, the general is merciful."

Today's fate is also self-inflicted and self-inflicted.

Sima Yun didn't soften her heart at all, but this was not the time for her to relax. The man behind the scenes hadn't been found for a day, and she couldn't relax for a day. Looking back now, she simply went out with her at that time, otherwise...I'm afraid this girl It's really a dead home to meet guests.

"Thank you, magistrate." Sima Yun cupped his fists in thanks.

The county magistrate looked apologetic, "The general is too polite. It is a blessing for the people of Longxi city to have the famous General Sima come to our Longxi city. You must know that General Sima is a great contributor to guarding the border and defending the country, but But now...but...it's because I, the county magistrate, didn't do well."

"Don't say that. Fortunately, nothing has gone wrong. It's not too early today. The magistrate should go back and rest earlier."

Shen Zhaoxue also bowed to express her thanks, sent the county magistrate away, and watched the shopkeeper and other accomplices be brought to justice, the turmoil in Longxi City was considered to be over.

The inn involved was also ordered to close down. That night, Sima Yun and Shen Zhaoxue received warm invitations from many local inns to stay for free and provide the best service.

However, because it was too late that day, they did not make a choice, but chose a nearby inn to stay and paid all the room and service charges.

The groom was very grateful to see his wife came back intact, if something happened to his wife this time, he might not have the face to go back to the general's mansion.

Shen Zhaoxue yawned several times, sleepiness had already swept over her head.

This time they stayed in a room with two beds in this inn, because Sima Yun had experienced the incident last time, and he was really worried about letting her stay alone again.

So Shen Zhaoxue can understand this as, does the general actually care about her?It should be.

During this day, everyone has experienced too much and happened too much, and they are all exhausted, and they almost fell into bed and fell asleep.

Shen Zhaoxue turned over and faced the side of the general's bed. She was lying flat on the bed, breathing calmly and regularly with her eyes closed. She was sleeping soundly. She couldn't help thinking that the general was really tired this day. Well, when she came to find herself, the clothes on her body were still wet, so she must have gone out to find herself when it was raining heavily. Just thinking about it, Shen Zhaoxue felt strangely warm in her heart, but at the same time felt very distressed.Looking at it like this, the eyelids gradually became heavy, and Shen Zhaoxue fell asleep unconsciously.

The next day, the sun was shining brightly in Longxi City, sweeping away the gloom of yesterday, and the whole city was full of vitality again. This is a good weather, and it is a good day to start.

They packed their luggage and put it on the carriage. They had a lot of items purchased in Longxi, because they knew that the road ahead would be long and difficult, and they didn't know what they would meet or what would happen in the future.

The groom sat in the driver's seat as usual, but at this moment, Sima Yun suddenly took out a bank note of high value and value, and handed it to the groom. "General, this is..."

"Let's part here, this is the reward you deserve."

"But general...why...is the small one doing something wrong?"

Even Shen Zhaoxue at the side didn't quite understand.

Sima Yun said again, "You were also involved in this incident, and you almost lost your life. It shouldn't have happened. You shouldn't have been implicated with us. There may be more dangers in leaving the road behind Longxi , So let’s say goodbye here, everyone, with this money, you should be able to buy a house and live a good life for the rest of your life when you return to the capital, of course, if you still want to go back to Sima’s mansion to work, that’s fine too.”

The groom was grateful, with snot and tears, holding the bank note tremblingly, "General..."

Sima Yun made this decision in his heart yesterday. This trip to the Western Regions will be difficult and difficult. She doesn't know what unknown things will happen in the future, and there may be greater dangers. She only knows what she can do Within the time limit, there is no time to take care of the safety of the two people, so...

Doing so is excellent and the most appropriate way to deal with it.

"The journey is smooth, the general and the general's wife. You must return to Beijing safely! The little one must be waiting for the triumphant return at the general's mansion!" The groom waved them goodbye.

Afterwards, Sima Yun took the original position of the groom and drove the carriage. It seemed that there was nothing she could or would not do in her hands. Shen Zhaoxue sat next to her and accompanied her.

The carriage quickly left the city gate, facing the morning glow, the golden glow hit the faces of the two of them, slightly dazzling and unable to open their eyes.

Sima Yun suddenly asked, "Do you regret it? There is still time to go back now."

Shen Zhaoxue smiled and shook her head, her tone was firm, "I don't regret it."

With you here, there is nothing to fear in the road ahead.
