minister on skirt

Chapter 26

He didn't know why she was still on the road at night, and of course he asked who she was, but she didn't say anything, only that her surname was Shen.

Even the word "Lin Lang" was accidentally picked up from the golden hairpin in her hair while she was asleep.

She is wearing a bun, so it can be guessed that she has reached the age of the hairpin, but the marks made by the gold hairpin are very new, so it is likely that she has not reached the age of the hairpin for a long time.

When she speaks, the ending sound is always raised a little bit, revealing the squeamishness of being pampered.

When he was spraying medicine on the wound, he would occasionally touch her sleeve, which was also made of silk and satin.

When taking the medicine twice, he also carefully touched her palm, the location of the cocoon was very familiar, presumably he was as used to wielding a sword as he was.

"It's finally gone." She sighed beside her.

He looked at her intently, and said, "The wind is still tight, wait a moment."

The Shen Changying in front of him has both similarities and differences with her.

The same thing is that her generous jingui is still there, but the difference is that she doesn't have silk-made clothes, and she never raises the end of her voice when she speaks.

All his memories of Shen Linlang in the past few days seem to be less detailed and real than this moment.

"Are you okay?" She glanced at him, and then covered her bruised wrist with her cuff.

It doesn't matter if you are injured, but you can't see blood, otherwise you will have to reveal your secrets when you go back.

"It's okay." He straightened up and pulled off the kerchief on his face.

"Are you all right? Then your waist—" She suddenly raised her final voice, stretched her left hand to his waist, and then took a breath: "There is an arrow!"

The temperature of the fingers spread to the skin around the waist through the thin clothes, Du Jian's body froze, and he half turned to look over.

"We have to stop the bleeding quickly!" Chang Ying's expression was serious.

They had to go back to Zhizhou Mansion and bring back their blood-stained clothes, Cheng Xiao must have become suspicious.

Since Cheng Xiao dug a hole and waited for them to jump, he would naturally find them to verify when he turned around.

There were some waves in Du Jian's half-drowned eyes, flipping in the dark sky with his back to the moonlight.

He was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "Shen Linlang, is that you?"

Three years ago when they were hiding in the dry woods, she also subconsciously covered the wound on his waist with her bare hands, reminding him that he must take medicine in this tone.

Not only the actions are the same, but even the tone of voice is the same.

So it was her all along, but she just pretended not to know him?

Changying held her breath: "What are you talking about?"

Du Jian stared at her eyes for a while, and the surge in her eyes gradually receded.

Chang Ying looked opposite, and he stepped back two steps, towering like a mountain in the night, looking like a silent beast.

"Did Guard Du admit the wrong person?" She twitched the corner of her mouth to resolve the inexplicable embarrassment.

She somehow felt that it was time for her to leave.

But he was standing in front of him, and she couldn't walk through.

Du Jian looked at her and smiled silently after a long time.

"What are you laughing at?" She frowned.

He restrained his expression and looked deeply: "There is one thing, I think it's better to have an answer."

"What? What answer?"

But he didn't answer, didn't intend to answer, he moved away to get out of the way.

Changying thought about it, and left anyway.

The sound of the wind on all sides is the same as before, and the shadow of the moon is in full swing.

Facing the dark night, Du Jian closed his eyes and frowned.

Those who chased him back then were patrolling the various villages near Tugao, not to mention he was blind, even if he was safe and sound, he might not be able to escape the search and arrest.

And Xie Peng, Tong Qi and the others were all waiting on the other side of Tongzhou City. No one knew where he was, and he couldn't deliver the news.

As time passed, his heart became more and more anxious, because the things he wanted to do hadn't been done yet, and that was related to the lives of about twenty people in a family.

He and Shen Changying stayed in the Earth Temple for half a month, and finally when she was going down the mountain to look for food, they finally heard the news that a caravan was going into the city.

But because there were so many bandits, the caravan did not dare to pick people up easily.

She secretly pretended to be a refugee girl and tried several times. Because she wanted to pick him up, they had to prove that they were good citizens.

"Why don't you go first, send a letter for me, and someone will come to pick me up." He said in desperation.

But she calmly vetoed it: "You are blind, and you still have injuries on your body. Without me here, you will definitely not survive for half a day!"

He knew what she said was the truth, even if he met her who didn't know martial arts, in fact, he would have already reached a dead end.

And it's not impossible for her to leave if she wants to leave, and he doesn't know why she was so stupid to stay with him and take care of him for half a month, although few of the words she uttered were pleasant.

"I'll go to the Tongzhou Yamen to have a look at night, and if it doesn't work, I'll get a seal." She finally said.

But in the end, she only brought back two blank marriage certificates from the yamen.
