Chapter 2
The carriage ran to the outside of Xunyang City, because the sky had not yet dawned and the city gate had not been opened, the outside of the city was already full of people who wanted to enter the city.

Jiang Nan glanced at the defenders at the city gate, and breathed a sigh of relief. She pulled the reins, and the carriage stopped in a corner. She gently placed the child on the soft couch inside the carriage, and twisted her sore arms.

"Crack~"

There was a moderate sound from outside, something like a dead pig fell to the ground, and the movement was so loud that the carriage shook.

After all, it didn't go beyond the border of Nanling, so in order to avoid complications, Jiang Nan hid and didn't care.

"Ma'am, you dropped something!" After a while, someone knocked on the car door.

Jiang Nan lifted the curtain of the car and looked out suspiciously. It was a Taoist priest with a smile on his face. Following the Taoist priest's line of sight, he saw a man covered in blood lying on the ground beside the carriage. , already in a coma due to blood loss.

Due to the serious injury, the man's face was pale, his eyes were closed, he was not as vicious as last night, he looked very young and delicate at the moment.

"The old Taoist has a little understanding of Qihuang's technique, as long as he stops the wound from bleeding, he can still be saved! The old Taoist has a special hemostatic cold medicine on his body, which has a miraculous effect!" The Taoist said with a smile while feeling the pulse.

Jiang Nan didn't listen carefully, her eyes kept falling on the man's face on the ground. She didn't know whether it was because this man had a public face or what, but she always had a feeling of déjà vu.

Very familiar.

But when she tried to think about it, her brain ached, like tens of thousands of ants were gnawing, and she couldn't think of any clues.

"The old Taoist is destined to be with his wife today, and a bottle of medicine only costs one tael of silver!" The Taoist said while pouring the medicine powder on the man's wound.

After tying the bandages, the service was very thoughtful. Jiang Nan was speechless as he carried the man into the carriage with Xiao Daotong.

"I can't come up, I don't know this person!" Jiang Nan reached out to stop the Taoist priest from carrying the man into the car.

Upon hearing this, the Taoist priest immediately changed his face: "How is it possible? I saw this gentleman fall off your carriage with my own eyes! Madam, you don't want to admit it?"

"I really don't know him. I met a horse thief on the road. I don't know where this person came from! Maybe he is a horse thief?" Jiang Nan said indiscriminately.

"Which horse thief looks so fair and handsome? Your husband was injured by a horse thief in order to save you. If you don't admit it again, then I will ask the big guys to judge and go to the government office to discuss it clearly!" The Taoist said coldly. His face was smeared, and he looked like he wouldn't leave without giving the money.

Never go to the government office!
People with ghosts in their hearts can only do a little fuss with their tails between their legs when they go out.

Jiang Nan took out a tael of silver from her pocket and handed it over, but the Taoist didn't accept it.

"Your lord's injury is too serious. I just used two bottles, and I have to change the medicine every day after that. You have to buy at least ten bottles!"

"Ten bottles? Ten taels? Why don't you grab them?" Jiang Nan said in surprise, then took out another tael of silver and handed it over.

The Taoist priest took it, and praised, "It's really a bad world, and the most poisonous woman's heart. Without my medicine, your husband might not be able to live! It's a good deal to buy a life for only ten taels. I have a destiny with you, madam." , Big deal, I buy nine get one free, you give me nine taels!"

Jiang Nan lowered her eyes and said nothing, just acting like a Taoist farting.At this time, the man moved a bit, opened his eyelids, as if he hadn't passed out just now, he took out an ingot of gold from his pocket with shaking hands and threw it over.

When the Taoist saw it, his eyes widened immediately, he picked it up, and handed over the cloth bag containing the powder knowingly.

"There are also oral medicines for conditioning the body in it, and I will give it to the lord. The lord is auspicious, and he must be rich and powerful!"

After saying that, I was afraid that the man would go back on his word, so he turned around and left.

In the gray morning light, the curtains of the car fell, and the interior of the car was dim, so quiet that one could hear the sound of heavy breathing.

The smell of blood scattered everywhere, he must have been in extreme pain, he gritted his teeth and endured it secretly for a long time, his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, he insisted on not making a sound.

"Who are you?" Jiang Nan asked.

The land of Nanling has never been peaceful. This man is dressed either richly or expensively. If horse thieves don't rob him, who will they rob?

The man regained his strength, moved his body, found a comfortable position to recline, threw the arrow aside, picked up a cowhide bag, and drank the water in it.

"Who am I?!" The man looked slightly surprised, his eyes narrowed, and he sneered, "The princess of Nanling County fled with her youngest son. I just need to shout, and the guards at the gate of the city will immediately take you down!"

The man's voice was soft and weak, but it made Jiang Nan sweat a little on his back, thanks to Ding Dong's voice.

Now it is impossible to separate the relationship with Nanling County Prince's Mansion!

"What private escape, I just went back to Beijing to visit relatives!" Jiang Nan bit the bullet and explained.

The man smiled and looked up at her: "As a concubine of a county, how dare you go back to Beijing without an edict? Even if you are Jiang Taiwei's favorite granddaughter, right?"

Jiang Nan's eyes flashed, it's over, this guy even knows her grandfather?
But the three words "most beloved" were like countless sharp knives piercing her heart. She avoided the man's gaze and retorted: "My cousin is the princess-to-be, and I have the best relationship with her! The prince and I My cousin is about to get married, so why not go back to drink their wedding wine earlier?"

The man let out a long oh, and sneered meaningfully: "So you are His Royal Highness's sister-in-law? What a disrespect!"

He spoke politely, but his tone was utterly dismissive, and there was a hint of anger that seemed to be there.

Jiang Nan didn't know why she had to explain so much to a strange man?I don't even know why he is inexplicably hostile to her?
But he was also afraid that he would really call the defenders here in a fit of anger, so he was too guilty to speak, and was at a disadvantage for a while.

"Who doesn't snatch horse thieves? If I hadn't helped you just now, do you think you could have escaped? I heard that Xie Lin doted on his concubine and killed his wife. You didn't even have nine taels of silver when you searched and searched. It seems that what you said is true! The eyes are not good , you can’t pick a man, you’re asking for trouble!”

"???" Jiang Nan was shocked.

In the man's extremely mocking laughter, she heard some hidden meanings, although Xie Lin was as cowardly as a grandson in the imperial capital, but in Nanling, he covered the sky with one hand.

She smiled back: "You can call the prince's name so casually, it seems that you are not from Nanling! You can call the city gate guards to claim credit for the prince, but you don't, so you say so much, Is there something you want from me?"

The man was slightly stunned, and then said: "Isn't this obvious? I am so injured, how can I return to the Imperial Capital safely? I will go on the same road with you, and we will benefit from each other!"

"..." Why?
