Peach Blossom at the Bottom of the Fan

Chapter 174
"Ah—" Xue Wanhua covered her mouth after only one cry.

"My dear, my dear, if you are going to be born, hurry up, if it is too late, both our mothers will die in this mountain temple..."

Whispering in a low voice, Xue Wanhua groped with her backhand, but she didn't know what she touched, like a piece of dead wood, she didn't even look at it in the dark, and directly stuffed it into her mouth, biting heavily.

Resisting not to make a sound, she tried her best to breathe slowly, gritted her teeth and exerted herself...

She was only seven months pregnant, and Xue Wanhua was the only one giving birth at this time, let alone in the wilderness.Even at home, surrounded by midwives and doctors, is dangerous.

But at this time, Xue Wanhua had no other choice.Either he gave birth to the child by himself, or he ran halfway and let Li Chongyang catch one dead body and two lives.

Lying under the altar of the mountain temple, she could only pray for God's protection over and over again.

"Officer, official..." In a haze, she vaguely saw Mu Feng's smiling face.

Raising her hand subconsciously, she wanted to grab Mu Feng's hand, "Officer, are you here to pick me up?! I'm sorry, it was my mistake..."

She murmured in a low voice, looking at Mu Feng's smile, the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously.

But just as the fingertip touched Mu Feng's finger, Mu Feng suddenly disappeared.

"Officer..." Xue Wanhua called out anxiously, at the same time her heart trembled, and she suddenly regained consciousness.

Opening her eyes, she was still hiding under the divine case in the dilapidated mountain temple.

When I woke up, the pain in my abdomen was even worse.

Xue Wanhua took a deep breath, only feeling her nose sore.

With her teeth straddled, she picked up the broken piece of wood that fell on her chest, and stuffed it into her mouth again.

The sour smell mixed with the earthy smell made her feel sick to her stomach, but she insisted on suppressing it.

Gritting her teeth, she wiped off the sweat from her forehead, only to feel that her whole body was burning hot.

Her body was weak and she had no strength, so she clenched her fists and tried her best...

As soon as her lower abdomen fell, she felt something slipped out...

After spitting out the wooden stick in her mouth, she struggled to sit up.

The incense table was short and she couldn't sit too straight. She leaned forward and took out a dagger from her body.

This dagger was specially carried by her, intending to stab into Li Chongyang's body.Unexpectedly, it was not used to kill Li Chongyang in the end, but to cut off her son's umbilical cord.

Holding the baby covered in blood, Xue Wanhua was both happy and sad.

Fortunately, she finally gave birth to this child safely.The sad thing is that this child is too young, looks so weak, with half-closed eyes, it seems that he can't even focus his sight.Even when she slapped her butt hard, the crying sound was as low as that of a kitten.

"You have to live in peace! My child..." She sobbed, pressing her mouth to the child's face, feeling the slight movement of the little mouth, and couldn't help laughing.

Suddenly straightened her body, Xue Wanhua turned her head to listen.In the wind and rain, she couldn't hear clearly, but she just felt that someone was coming here.

Is she too sensitive? !No, it was Li Chongyang who came after him.

Before she had time to think about it, Xue Wanhua tore off her coat, wrapped the baby up, and put him away carefully.

Only then did he crawl out of the incense table with his back bent, and got into the wind and rain.

It's not that she is sensitive, there are indeed voices outside the mountain temple.

Xue Wanhua carefully hid behind the broken wall and moved out step by step.

"Damn, where did that stinky woman go..."

The wind and rain are too strong, even holding an umbrella can't keep out the wind and rain.

His body was completely soaked, so Li Chongyang simply threw away the oil-paper umbrella in his hand, "Go in and have a look, maybe that stinky woman is hiding inside to avoid the rain!"

Seeing the two walking towards the temple, Xue Wanhua panicked, she kicked a stone when she moved her foot, she dodged and ran out of the broken wall.

Martial arts practitioners have excellent hearing, and when they heard the sound, the burly man turned his head immediately, just in time to see a white shadow flash past.

Although he was a bit puzzled, this figure was clearly the woman they were chasing.

"There! Run over..."

He yelled loudly, and the man shot out like an arrow.

Li Chongyang also saw Xue Wanhua's figure, in a hurry, he didn't have time to think about it, turned around and chased after her...

In the wind and rain, in the silent mountain temple, a low cry of a baby was faintly heard, but it was immediately drowned in the wind and rain...

The wind was violent and the rain was violent, the half-open window was thrown open at once, Xiaodie hurriedly went to close the window, but she was still a step too late, the dressing table by the window was mostly wet.

Gu Sixiao who was rummaging through the box suddenly turned around and shouted: "Xiaodie, did you touch my things?"

Startled by her question, Xiaodie kept shaking her head, "Little lady, if you won't let me move, how dare I? Let alone me, no one in this yard would dare! I told them a long time ago No, they don't need to tidy up the little lady's house."

"Understood..." Gu Sixiao responded in a low voice, looking at the bookcase that had obviously been turned over, she just felt blocked.

This is someone looking for something - looking for a ledger? !

Seeing Gu Sixiao in a daze, Xiaodie came over, "Little lady, did you lose something?"

Without answering her, Gu Sixiao stood up suddenly, walked out without saying a word.

"Little lady, where are you going?" Chasing out anxiously, Xiaodie quickly followed, "It's raining so heavily, do you still want to go out? If you have anything to do, wait until the rain stops!"

"The rain on the mountain must be heavier..." It was clearly daytime, but the day was as heavy as night.

She really shouldn't just come back like this, even if Xue Wanhua chased her away again, she should have insisted on staying.

She had thought that Xue Wanhua didn't want her to stay on the mountain because she clearly didn't want her to see too many sinful things.But what has she not seen?She should have said that to Xue Wanhua at that time.

She was not afraid, even if she saw Li Chongyang die in front of her, she was not afraid.

Taking the umbrella from Xiaodie's hand, Gu Sixiao walked out of the yard quickly, without answering Xiaodie's words at all.

She personally went to the stable to call the coachman, and she rode the carriage all the way out of Xue's house and went straight to Su's house.

Suddenly ran to the door, it was such a rainy day again.Although the concierge of the Su family was polite, he looked at her with strange eyes, especially when he heard her say "I won't go in, just wait here for Su Jingchun", he showed a strange expression.

Holding an umbrella, he stood outside the door and waited for a quarter of an hour before Su Jingchun ran out.

He ran in a hurry, he didn't even bring an umbrella, Su Zhu shouted all the way behind, and chased him out with an umbrella.

"My lord, you should wear an umbrella anyway! If you get gonorrhea, the little lady will feel sorry for it!"

While speaking, Su Zhu smiled flatteringly at Gu Sixiao.

It can be regarded as justifiable, the future mistress, what can he do if he doesn't please.

But Gu Sixiao didn't seem to see his flattering smile at all, but just pulled Su Jingchun under her umbrella, and hurriedly said loudly: "I'm going to Guiyuan Temple!"

"What's the matter?" In the wind and rain, Su Jingchun couldn't hear clearly, frowned, brushed away the wet hair sticking to her forehead, and pulled her in, "Let's go in first!"

"No——" Gu Sixiao pulled his hand away, "My second sister is in the temple, and Li Chongyang——I'm a little worried..."

Su Jingchun knew the most about the Xue family's affairs, and once he heard what Gu Sixiao said, he understood.

Frowning, he said in a deep voice, "What is Xue Wanhua going to do?!"

Gu Sixiao didn't come to her in advance, it must be something Xue Wanhua said, maybe there is still something that Gu Sixiao wants to help hide.

Lowering her head, Gu Sixiao also knew that she couldn't hide Su Jingchun.

"I think my sister wants to kill Li Chongyang on the mountain."

Because of this thought, she kept the matter a secret.If Li Chongyang died, it would be best to die quietly, she didn't want Xue Wanhua to die because of Li Chongyang.

However, she clearly guessed that it was Li Chongyang who died, but now her heart is so panicked.

When Li Chongyang came to look through her bookcase, he suspected that Mu Feng had handed over the ledger to her.

Now that they have begun to suspect her, do they also know that they believe that he killed Mu Feng? !
If he had already begun to doubt, could he let Xue Wanhua easily succeed without any preparation? !If he's ready...

Clutching Su Jingchun's arm, Gu Sixiao was so anxious that she was about to cry, "Jingchun, I'm so worried—my heart is in a mess right now, as if something is going to happen."

"Don't be afraid—I'll accompany you up the mountain right now!" Su Jingchun patted her arm reassuringly, and turned around to tell Su Zhu, "Call Su Song, and bring all the servants who are idle in the mansion up the mountain with me—Wang's Mansion Call the guards who came here, too!"

Su Zhu responded, turned around and ran away.

"Calling those guys—isn't it good?"

"What's wrong? It was meant for me."

Su Jingchun smiled, put his arms around her, turned around and got into the carriage, "Let's go out of the city—"

At the gate of the city, because the sky was very cloudy, the gates of the city were closed ahead of time.

A group of people were blocked at the gate of the city, and the pawns guarding the gate were also troubled, "Which family is it from? Going out at this time, I'm afraid the road will be difficult!"

In fact, I just don't want to open the city gate again, so I'm too embarrassed to say so.

Su Jingchun didn't speak, just threw out a sign.

Su Zhu took the sign and flashed it in front of the pawn, "Hurry up and open the door! If I miss something, will it be yours?"

The pawn took a closer look, and was immediately taken aback. He didn't dare to stop him any more, so he directly beckoned someone to let him go.

Seeing that Gu Sixiao kept looking at his hand, Su Jingchun didn't put the retracted sign into his arms, but handed it to Gu Sixiao with a smile.

Gu Sixiao took a closer look and was also taken aback.

It was an ordinary bronze medal with the sea of ​​clouds and red sun engraved on it, but on the reverse were two big characters "Da Nei".

This is like the token of the legendary Ouchi guard! ?

"This—a master of the Ouchi?"

Seeing Gu Sixiao's surprised expression, Su Jingchun laughed all of a sudden, "What kind of expert! It's just something the prince threw to me casually. Do you really have such great authority as a palace guard? It's just a rumor. It's just a story."

That's right, it's just a guard after all.Gu Sixiao also felt ashamed.

But after such a fuss, the tension just now seemed to be a little lighter.

Knowing that Su Jingchun also teased her on purpose, Gu Sixiao was grateful in his heart, but thinking about it, he still felt anxious.

"Jingchun, do you have any extra horses? I want to hurry up."

"You don't know how to ride a horse..." Seeing Gu Sixiao's expression, Su Jingchun swallowed half the sentence.

He asked the coachman to stop the carriage, he greeted him, and immediately someone came over with a coir raincoat.

Su Jingchun put it on for Gu Sixiao himself, and carried her onto the horse.He got on the horse without hesitation, hugged Gu Sixiao in his arms, and settled down securely, then tapped the horse's belly with his toes, "Drive——"
