After being forced to marry as a substitute, I became famous in the limbo

Chapter 178
When Jiang Ning just said this sentence, he felt a little slip of the tongue.

These days, she has been deliberately avoiding the things that might happen, not daring to look, not asking, not to imagine all the things that might happen.

She already clearly understood that she had no ability to change all of this, and the feeling of being powerless while watching things happen was enough to make her completely collapse.

But at this moment, presumably, the long-lost atmosphere and familiar people dulled her senses, making her mistakenly think for a moment that she and Pei Yu were just coming to the market on an ordinary basis.

But unknowingly forgot, this time, it may be life and death.

After a moment of daze, Jiang Ning lowered his head absent-mindedly to scoop up a wonton, but he didn't put it into his mouth.

"Should change to another place to make a living." Pei Yu's voice was relaxed, without the slightest hint of sadness that a catastrophe was imminent.

She looked up in astonishment, only to see Pei Yu smiling at her with a gentle and clear smile.Jiang Ning's heart trembled slightly.

"That's great." Jiang Ning's smile gradually became more cheerful, "Then we will meet again one day."

Pei Yu also laughed, but didn't answer any more, just quietly lowered his head and ate wontons.

The two of them just chatted one after another, and when the wontons were finished, there were no other customers at the stall.

Pei Yu paid the money, and the two exchanged some pleasantries with the boss before leaving while the boss watched him off.

The two walked side by side to the intersection of the alley, stopped, "Let's go here." Pei Yu looked at her, the smile in his eyes was still gentle, but in that gentleness, there was an inexplicable sense of vicissitudes.

Jiang Ning felt a pain in his heart, obviously he was only seventeen or eighteen years old, he was in his best years, but he was forced to move around like a mouse crossing the street, everyone shouted and beat him.

"Brother." His voice was still clear and clear, "Little Yutou can't follow you to protect you this time, please take care of yourself."

Just saying a word made Jiang Ning almost cry.

"Take care." She bent down slightly, turned and left under Pei Yu's watch, and she burst into tears the moment she turned around.

As soon as she turned the corner, she saw Mu Jingzhao waiting for her at the entrance of the alley. The afternoon sun was shining on his dark blue robe. He was standing upright, his cheeks were red and sweaty from the exposure, but his eyes were fixed on the alley. direction.

It wasn't until that petite figure in light yellow clothes appeared that his tense facial features stretched out into a smile, smiling, but his eyes were red.

He took two steps forward and hugged Jiang Ning into his arms with heavy movements.Jiang Ning's bones ached a little.

After regrouping, the group prepared to return to the capital. As for how the criminals were dealt with, Jiang Ning did not ask, nor did Mu Jingzhao.

Qingshui County has a new county magistrate, and the house of the family that had been exterminated was also sent to repair it. Several announcements on the handling of the rebellion incident were released, and Qingshui County gradually resumed its former bustle.

As for Shen Tong, he stayed behind on the grounds that there were still important matters to be dealt with in Qingshui County, and did not go home with Mu Jingzhao and his party.

The convoy wobbled and headed towards the capital again. This time, Mu Jingzhao did not squeeze into a carriage with Jiang Ning, and now Jiang Ning was alone.

The car swayed forward for an unknown amount of time, passed through the woods, and came to a small stream with bright willows and flowers.

Qingshui County is located in a basin, surrounded by mountains, and the road is almost full of uncultivated mountains and hills. It is difficult to find a place to stay. By the time of this small stream, there are already nearly twelve people There was no rest for an hour.

Mu Jingzhao stopped the convoy and suggested that everyone stay by the creek for a while before moving on.

Jiang Ning bumped in the car for a long time, feeling dizzy and dizzy all the way.Hearing Mu Jingzhao's words, she immediately got up and got out of the car as if she had been pardoned.

As soon as she opened the curtain, she felt a burst of fresh air coming towards her. She smiled, and immediately felt bright in her heart. She jumped and ran towards the direction of the stream.

The water surface is sparkling, and the fish are playing at the bottom of the water. You can see the clean and round stones at the bottom of the stream at a glance.

There was a lot of noise behind him, and Jiang Ning looked back, only to see that Mu Jingzhao and Shen Qingrong had already got out of the car. They seemed to be talking about something, and they walked side by side toward the upper reaches of the stream.

She squatted down, took the stream water with both hands and wiped it on her face indiscriminately, and then took a few more cups and drank it.

The spring water was clear and sweet, and she just felt refreshed and refreshed for a while.

At this moment, a few panicked shouts were suddenly mixed into the sound of the spring water hitting the stone.

"emperor--"

"Empress Empress—"

"Escort, escort quickly!"

Jiang Ning was stunned, and saw that the originally clear stream in front of her was gradually stained red with blood. She hurriedly looked upstream, and saw Shen Qingrong standing in front of Mu Jingzhao, a bloody spot appeared on the clothes on her chest. Hole, the crescent-white clothes on his body have been completely stained red by blood.

In front of the two of them, the forbidden army escorted a man in black with a black cloth on his face to return to Mu Jingzhao.

Mu Jingzhao turned a blind eye and carried Shen Qingrong into the convoy.

Jiang Ning's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly followed. Only then did she realize that there was an extremely long scar on Mu Jingzhao's arm.

She glanced at the man in black who was being escorted by the forbidden army, and she was shocked. This person was able to injure Mu Jingzhao and Shen Qingrong one after another under the watchful eyes of the forbidden army. This kind of strength is really scary.

Before he had time to think about it, Jiang Ning quickly followed Mu Jingzhao to the front of the carriage. Just when he approached, he heard Mu Jingzhao's roar.

"I came here to ask you to find a way for me, not to watch you shake your head, you quack doctors!"

Jiang Ning took a deep breath, opened the curtain and got into the carriage.

Inside the car, Mu Jingzhao hugged Shen Qingrong in his arms eagerly, the remaining anger on his face faded slightly, and he glared at Doctor Zhang who was kneeling in front of him.

Shen Qingrong in his arms was still unconscious, her face was pale without a trace of blood, the blood hole in her chest was still bubbling, and a large area was stained red on the car.

Seeing Jiang Ning, the expression on Mu Jingzhao's face froze slightly, his anger dissipated for a bit, and his tone softened a little, "You go out first, don't scare you."

Jiang Ning knew that he could not be of much help if he stayed in the car, so he nodded numbly, turned around and got out of the car.

Until she stood outside the car, she still felt the strong smell of blood lingering, she bowed her head beside the car and retched.

Beside Jiang Ning, two imperial guards escorted the man in black to pass by. Seeing Jiang Ning vomited here, Vice General Chen quickly asked.

"Ma'am, are you okay?"

She regained her composure for a while, and when she saw the person coming, she smiled, and then said, "It's all right, it's just that I'm not used to the smell of blood."

Deputy General Chen nodded slightly to express his understanding, "It's better not to look at these things, be careful to scare you."

The imprisoned man in black raised his head upon hearing the words, stared at Jiang Ning with a strange expression, and let out a contemptuous sneer.
