Chapter 27 Escorting in Distress

On the second day, before dawn, Pei Xun and his party escorted grain and silver to Liaozhou, the hardest-hit area.

It's already winter, and the northern foot area is already cold, and today it's even colder and windier. Jiang Youzhi woke up groggy this morning because he drank too much wine last night, and is currently taking a nap in the carriage with his eyes closed.

Suddenly, a gust of wind hit, and countless arrows shot out from all around, heading straight for the escort team.

A group of people immediately drew their swords to block them, and the men in black who flew over suddenly surrounded them all, killing each other in an instant.

Jiang Youzhi's carriage also began to shake from side to side, and she struggled to keep it steady. As soon as she opened the curtain, she saw a man in black who had just hacked the coachman to death, and was about to come towards her with a knife.

Seeing this, Pei Xun stabbed the man to death from the back with a swift sword, and the other man in black immediately swung his knife and stabbed the horse.

The horse was frightened and kept howling, and then the entire carriage lost control, and Jiang Youzhi staggered and fell in it.

The horse ran wildly towards the edge of the cliff, and seeing that it was about to fall off the cliff, Pei Xun took advantage of the gap and rushed into the carriage, picked up the person who fell on the ground, and wanted to rush out, but it was too late Night.

Both of them fell down from the carriage, Pei Xun covered her head with his hands, and held her tightly in his arms.

When Jiang Youzhi woke up, she felt sore all over her body. She moved her neck and found herself lying in Pei Xun's arms.

Seeing his unconscious appearance, she called anxiously: "My lord, my lord!"

But Pei Xun looked seriously injured, a lot of blood flowed from his forehead, and he didn't know if he was injured.

She got up and ran outside, and after a while, she saw him coming with a man who looked like a farmer: "Brother, you need to save him!"

The farmer was pushing a trolley, saw a person lying on the ground, and while helping Jiang Youzhi lift him up, he said: "Sister, take him to my house first, and then I'll go find a doctor."

Jiang Youzhi said gratefully: "Brother, thank you so much!"

When he arrived at the farmer's house, the doctor came and gave Pei Xun medicine, Jiang Youzhi felt relieved.

The farmer's wife is gentle and virtuous, and she is holding two sets of clothes at the moment: "Sister, you and your husband-in-law change into these two sets of clothes first and then settle down."

After Jiang Youzhi received it, she thanked her and said, "Thank you, it's really troublesome."

After three days of guarding, Pei Xun woke up.

As soon as he regained consciousness, he saw a small hand clutching his knuckles. Jiang Youzhi was dressed as a peasant girl, and the cloth on his body was white from washing.

He moved his fingers unconsciously, waking her up. Jiang Youzhi got up, and looked into his eyes with surprise: "My lord, you're awake!"

Pei Xun was distracted for a while without any makeup but with a bright color.

Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Jiang Youzhi frowned, and stroked his bandaged head with both hands: "It's broken! Could it be that he was stunned!"

A hint of helplessness flashed across Pei Xun's eyes, he cleared his throat, and his voice was hoarse: "Help me up."

Jiang Youzhi quickly withdrew his hand and smiled awkwardly: "My lord, do you want some water?"

Seeing that Pei Xun nodded, Jiang Youzhi brought over the tea, helped him up, and brought the tea to his mouth. After drinking, he kindly wiped the water stains around his mouth with his hands.

Carefully rubbing the slightly cool fingertips for him, Pei Xun looked down and saw that Jiang Youzhi's clothes were more than a circle smaller, and her slightly twisted waist was as slender as a willow.

He suddenly held her hand and let it go. At this time, Sister Li came in. She was holding some food and said warmly: "Sister, your husband has finally woken up, let him eat some food quickly."

In front of Pei Xun, Jiang Youzhi couldn't help but blushed when he heard the word Xianggong, but he still smiled and said, "Sister Li, thank you for your hard work."

Only after looking at Sister Li did Pei Xun understand why Jiang Youzhi's clothes were so awkward. Sister Li was short and thin.

When Sister Li left, Jiang Youzhi picked up the porridge and wanted to feed Pei Xun, but Pei Xun refused: "I can do it myself."

The two lingered and finally sat down. Jiang Youzhi tasted the porridge and found that there was not enough sugar, so he got up to get the sugar bowl.

But the sugar jar was on the cabinet, so high that the ginger twigs couldn't reach it even on tiptoe.

Seeing this, Pei Xun got up and walked behind her, stretched out his hand silently, and easily put his hand on the sugar bowl, while Jiang Youzhi was startled and turned around suddenly.

The four eyes met, Pei Xun's hand was still on the sugar bowl, Jiang Youzhi's small face was slightly raised, and his eyes were a little moved.

Pei Xun raised his eyebrows, and saw her body wrapped in cloth at a glance, and he was about to come out. This allure made him squint his eyes slightly, and his hand slipped from the sugar bowl to her shoulder.

The knuckles rubbed slightly to the waist again, breathing a little hot for a while, Pei Xun arched his waist slightly at a very slow speed, and approached her.

As long as he gets closer by an inch, his thin lips will touch the tip of her nose, and his other hand has already quietly landed on her cheek, moved slightly, and touched a cute little ear.

The constant kneading of the fingers on the earlobe made Jiang Youzhi's heart beat like a drum, but his body became weak, and his breathing became more and more disordered.

This uncontrolled breathing fell on Pei Xun's face, making him more impulsive, his throat felt a little stiff, and the strength in his hands increased involuntarily.

Jiang Youzhi clutched the clothes around the man's waist tightly with trembling fingers, and her closed eyelashes were also trembling slightly.

Just as her slightly cool lips touched the tip of her nose, the door behind her was opened with a "squeak", and Sister Li's voice came: "I'm afraid you are not enough, so give..."

The chaotic atmosphere in the room stopped, Jiang Youzhi bit her lower lip in embarrassment, her hands holding Pei Xun's clothes suddenly tightened, and she hurriedly buried her delicate red face in his chest, thinking about hitting the south wall.

Pei Xun, on the other hand, looked calm and calm, and said in a calm tone: "Thank you."

The smile on Aunt Li's face couldn't be hidden, she hurriedly put down the side dishes in her hand: "You two have such a good relationship, I won't bother you."

After finishing speaking, he left in a hurry, she left, but Pei Xun looked at the embarrassed person in his arms, and was still annoyed and refused to get up, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Let's go."

Only then did Jiang Youzhi suddenly come to his senses, and quickly escaped from his arms, and sat down without any intention: "Let's eat, let's eat."

Pei Xun reached out and took down the sugar bowl, and put it beside her: "Don't you want sugar?"

Jiang Youzhi closed his eyes in frustration, put sugar in the porridge, buried his head in eating, and refused to talk anymore.

But halfway through the meal, I still couldn't help asking him: "Those grains and money have been robbed, what should the victims do to survive the winter?"

Pei Xun didn't seem to be worried at all: "It's nothing, I've made arrangements."

Jiang Youzhi nodded, thinking about it, Pei Xun has always had his own conclusions on such matters.
