Chapter 38
Besides, Xianhui, the carriage drove into a small road after not far away, and rushed to the place where the beautiful girls gathered.

Is the road ahead a blessing or a curse?Her heart was at a loss and helpless.

When we arrived at the place where the show girls gathered, the courtyard was already full of excitement.There are Xiu girls who have already got on the bus, there are Xiu girls who are waiting in line below, and there are Xiu girls who are crying and sobbing softly, all of them are too busy to take care of themselves.No one paid any attention to Xianhui who was added temporarily, so the handover went smoothly.

The person who came to pick up Xianhui was the strange woman who looked at her in Prince Qing's mansion.Looking at his palace attire, he presumably is either a nanny walking in the palace, or someone who has been in charge of drafting for the past years.The woman introduced herself: "My surname is Li. I will guide you along the way and send you safely to the capital."

"Come here." She beckoned and led the checkups necessary for a show girl—whether she is a virgin.

Xianhui endured the humiliation, and still relied on Nanny Li to make a lot of troubles.

Probably Shao Yuanheng made arrangements in advance, and after the inspection was correct, Nanny Li looked polite and pointed to the carriage in the yard, "Wait for two beautiful girls to ride in the same carriage, whoever is assigned will be whoever is assigned, don't pick and choose .” Before getting into the car, someone brought her a soft cushion.

Xianhui wore a silk gauze hat, bowed her head and replied, "Yes, I've made a note."

Soon, the Xiunv team set off together.

The beautiful girl who was in the car with Xianhui was round and beautiful, fair and delicate, she didn't look like she had endured hardship, but her expression was very reserved, she was probably a girl raised by a small family.Along the way, Xian Hui was in no mood to speak at all, and the girl fell silent even after she opened her mouth a few times but couldn't meet her eyes.

It was wobbly and bumpy immediately, and it was very uncomfortable for a long time.

Xian Hui closed her eyes and prepared to sleep for a while.

It's not that I'm wide-eyed, or sleepy, I just want to leave Jiangdu as soon as I open my eyes, so there's no need to be hard-pressed.

I was half asleep and half awake and didn't know where I was, when suddenly a voice came from my ear, "Uh, uh..." Opening my eyes, I saw the beautiful girl opposite, her face was pale and she was covering her mouth, as if she couldn't help but want to vomit. Beads of sweat came out.

Xian Hui hurriedly shouted to someone outside, "Stop, stop, someone is sick and wants to vomit."

The carriage stopped quickly.

Xianhui put on the veiled cap, and said to the little eunuch outside: "Is there a doctor? A doctor? Please come and have a look." Seeing that the little eunuch was dumbfounded and silent, and seeing that the person in the car was suffering so badly, she hurried After getting out of the car, he shouted, "Mother Li? Where is Mother Li?"

Her voice was crisp and clear, Gao Chen rode a horse not too far ahead, and looked back.

Xianhui also glanced at him.

It's not that he was thinking about him, but Gao Chen was riding on a strong black horse, wearing silver armor, a heroic helmet, and a sharp sword on his waist.With such a neat uniform all over his body, and at a high place, it's really hard not to see it.

Under the sun, his eyebrows were slender like distant mountains, and his eyes were as black as ink, with a kind of brilliance and beauty.

Xianhui felt that he seemed to be looking at her, and the corners of his mouth curled up. There was a hint of disdain in those cold eyes.Wait...disdain?What does he disdain for himself?Oh, he thinks that he is greedy for glory and wealth, and he is dedicated to climbing the dragon and the phoenix, so he finally came to the draft.

I was not sure at first, did Zhou Qiao tip off the news?It's somewhat certain now.

Xianhui really wanted to argue with him, what disdain is there, do you think I am willing?Willing to serve an old man who is over fifty years old?Really, this girl is very unwilling.

——Who let a heartless father stand on the table.

"What's wrong?" Nanny Li came over.

Xian Hui hurriedly turned her head, pointed to the car and said, "She wants to vomit, she seems to be suffering."

Nanny Li looked at it expressionlessly, and asked, "What did you eat? Hurry up and make it clear, and prescribe the right medicine, so that you will suffer less."

Xiu Nu shook her head, beads of sweat rolling down her forehead.

Nanny Li sneered and said, "I've seen a lot of tricks played by show girls over the years." There was no mercy in her eyes, "You don't have to say anything, but remember, no one will send you home specially. Don't Say you are nauseated, even if you eat arsenic and wait to die now, you will die on the way to Beijing!"

The beautiful girl's face turned pale, "Nurse Li..."

Nanny Li glanced at her, with an expression of whether you like to talk or not, turned around and left.

Xiu Nu shrieked: "Mother, Mother, I ate oleander powder! I, I..." As if I couldn't help it, with a "wow", she leaned out of the car window and vomited.

Nanny Li frowned in disgust, and when she finished vomiting, she shouted, "Come down!" She asked someone to bring clean water to her, asked the doctor to check her pulse, and asked, "How is it?"

The doctor replied: "No serious problem, but the oleander powder is a little too much."

"It's fine if you can't die." Nanny Li pointed at Xian Hui, "Go up." Then she looked at the beautiful girl, stepped forward and slapped her hard, then another, and then another, "I don't know how to flatter you!" After about ten blows, the slapping girl was blushing before she stopped, "You don't want to eat the toast, you're punished, right? OK!"

Xiu Nu was stupefied by her beating, she covered her face and couldn't say a word.

Nanny Li said coldly: "You are not allowed to ride in the car, just walk!" Regardless of the surprise in the other party's eyes, she turned around and got into the car, and scolded fiercely: "You bitch! Go, you will only waste everyone's time."

The beautiful woman stayed under the car with a pale face, and when the team left, she had to bear the pain and raised her skirt to catch up, panting all the way, and slowly fell further and further behind.

When she passed Mammy Li's carriage, a sentence floated out, "Remember, if your legs are weak and your feet are weak, and you lose the team, then you will have to report your death."

The beautiful girl bit her lip, and hastened her pace to follow desperately.

Xianhui breathed a sigh of relief in the carriage, it was quite scary.Even if I know that the draft will fail in the end, I still feel a little overwhelmed by the fear and fear along the way, let alone the other show girls.Nanny Li's move to scare the chickens and monkeys is really powerful, and it is estimated that no one will make any more troubles in the following itinerary.

She kind of sympathizes with the poor show girl, but it can't help.

Xianhui leaned on the extra cushion that Nanny Li had given her, sighed softly, and was about to close her eyes to escape the commotion, when there was another commotion behind the carriage, and it stopped again.Although he was curious, he thought that the matter had nothing to do with him, so he hung up high, and didn't poke his head out to look, because he didn't want to get into any trouble.

——The trouble is coming for her.

There seemed to be a commotion in the back, some people were arguing, there was the sound of horses screaming and neighing, and then a sound of horseshoes came running from the front.Xianhui watched a tall and straight young man ride his horse past, it was none other than Gaochen, the king of the four counties with an iceberg face.

God!What's going on?Even he was startled and ran over.

Amitabha, Amitabha...

Xianhui kept chanting Buddha in her heart, praying for a safe journey, and went to the capital for a stroll and came back smoothly.

After a while, there was a sound of horseshoes stopping outside the car.

"Shao Xianhui!" Someone shouted in a low voice, "Come out."

Xianhui shuddered and was surprised, what did Gao Chen suddenly call his name?But he didn't dare to hesitate, and hurriedly put on the hood and got out of the car.Looking up at him, he was sitting too high on the horse, and it was against the light, so he couldn't see clearly at all, he could only feel the faint evil spirit around him.

She timidly asked: "Fourth County King, what's the matter?"

"Xianhui!" A familiar voice sounded from the side, with an extremely anxious tone.

"Brother?!" Xian Hui hurriedly turned her head and saw her brother being escorted by two little eunuchs behind the carriage. She couldn't help rushing up, "Brother, why did you come here?" Mammy pleaded, "My brother and I just need to talk a few words alone, and we won't go far."

With a cold face, Li Nanny reprimanded: "If you have something to say at home, don't you say it earlier? If you say something along the way, I will also talk to others. I won't be able to reach the capital next year."

"Okay." Gao Chen said lightly, "Give her time to burn incense."

Nanny Li had no choice but to hold back her anger.

"Thank you, King of the Four Counties." Xian Hui didn't bother to say more, and hurriedly dragged her brother to the next field ridge, not daring to go too far, and stopped at a distance that others could not hear, panting: "Brother, I...I have something to tell you."

"What did you say?" Shao Jingye's handsome face was full of anger and heartache, "You said you used it to be a show girl, and you exchanged 5 taels of silver for a shop in Yanzhou? Xianhui..." He pulled up his younger sister's immature With red hands and red eyes, "Why are you so stupid? My brother is going to be a peddler all his life, so don't sell my sister's money!"

"Brother, don't say anything, listen to me! Be sure to listen to me first." Xianhui knew that time was urgent and couldn't afford to delay, so she spoke quickly: "You first remember, I'm not crazy, I'm not insane , What I say next will be outrageous, but brother, you must believe me."

I would rather be treated as a monster by my relatives than tell the truth.

Because there was not much time, I didn't go into too much detail. I only said that I was reborn three years later and knew the plots of the Rong family's mother and daughter, so I was able to resolve the crisis time and time again.He also said that this draft will definitely not be successful, and it is worthwhile to cheat father so many things just by going to Beijing.

Shao Jingye stared at his sister in horror, "Xianhui, are you crazy? What are you talking about!"

"Brother, I'm not crazy." Xianhui knew it was hard for him to believe it, and she said many details that she logically didn't know, such as some personnel affairs in the Yanzhou branch, some important events in her father's shop, and some things about Song Wenting and Lu Jian Trivial things, and then said: "Look... you haven't told me these things, if I hadn't experienced past and present lives, how would I know? So brother, you must believe me, everything I say is true!"

In order to alleviate the worries of him, his mother, and his sister, he said again: "You guys wait for me, and I will talk about it in detail when I come back from the capital."

Shao Jingye still didn't believe it.

Although it is indeed strange that my sister knows something that she shouldn't know, but... is it possible that she deliberately inquired about it?At the moment, it is only my younger sister who is in a hurry, talking nonsense, and scolding: "No matter what you say, you should not be used as a show girl in exchange for money!" Following the younger sister's words, "If you really know the past and present , that should be avoided.”

Xianhui looked at her brother in a daze for a moment.

Brother, mother, sister, sister-in-law and sister Qin, and even grandmother, they were all kept in the dark, thinking that father had a conscience as he saw the surface.Little did he know that his father was the most heartless person.

At this moment, the cruel truth can only be torn apart.

Xianhui smiled bitterly, "Brother, it was my father who reported my name, so I have to go."

"What?!" Shao Jingye took up the important role of the pillar of the family very early on. He always considered himself mature and stable, but he was shocked by this horrifying news.It was hard for him to imagine that even though he hadn't seen each other for many years, the father who had always been affectionate and affectionate had always favored his younger sister, so how could he report his sister's name? !

Xian Hui had a sore nose, and laughed at herself, "I know, it's hard for you who haven't experienced the past life to imagine how ruthless your father is. He never favored me, and he gave me 3 taels of silver jewelry according to my wishes. Mrs. Rong handed over the contract of sale of the East Courtyard, as well as the recently allocated tens of thousands of taels of silver, the shop, and the house, all of which are just because they want me to enter the palace obediently."

Shao Jingye's face was slightly pale, and he said in a low voice, "That is to say, all the good things my father did before were all fake."

——It's all fake!
"Brother, listen to me..." Xianhui grabbed his arm tightly, choked up and said, "I'm really not crazy, and I didn't make up a lie. What I said, you can think about it carefully after you go back. I will believe it." He also earnestly urged, "Remember, you are the backbone of everyone in the East Court, you must not mess up! Just bear with it, and when you gain a firm foothold in Yanzhou, the people in the East Court will It's over."

Her tears fell down, "And... mother and sister, don't tell them that my father let me enter the palace. My mother is too straightforward, and there will be a lot of quarrels. You go back and say it was me. Knowing that there is no hindrance to going here, please persuade them more, let them not blame themselves, don't worry, I will definitely come back again."

Nanny Li shouted over there: "It's time for a stick of incense."

Shao Jingye held his younger sister's hand tightly and refused to let go, feeling as if he was being cut by a knife, "Xianhui!" He couldn't believe what his younger sister said, how could he just watch her go like this?I only hate myself for not seeing through my father sooner!
But... the tiger poison is still invulnerable.

"Brother, let me go." Xian Hui tried her best to pull her hands out, took a deep breath, and tried to calm her voice: "It is impossible for you to take me back now, and no one in the East Court will be able to kidnap Xiu Nu." There will be a good end, let go..." He suddenly lowered his head and took a bite, "Let go!"

She quickly got into the car and shouted, "Let's go!"

The carriage moved forward slowly, and soon began to bump and sway again, shaking tears from her eyes.

When it was dark, the draft team stopped to rest at the first inn.

The inn has already been booked out, and everyone is cleared. Except for the shopkeeper and the guys, there is a team of show girls. When the carriages are parked in the yard, the door is closed.Outside the inn, a group of soldiers under Gao Chen was in charge of patrolling, and an army of 2000 troops was stationed in an open space further away.

After all, the show girls were to be dedicated to the emperor for enjoyment, and secondly to the prince's clan, so nothing could go wrong.

A total of 36 beautiful women were selected and sent by Jiangdu County this time, and they happened to sit at four tables for dinner.When the meal was ready, the unlucky show girl who had been running all day had already slumped on the stool, and only had the strength left to breathe.Because everyone only ate some dry food at noon, and added delicious dishes in the evening, the steaming heat was quite attractive.

Xianhui stuffed it into her mouth without taste, and remained silent.

None of the show girls dared to speak, they all ate in silence, and didn't dare to walk around after eating, and continued to sit dryly.Until Nanny Li came over and said, "Two people share a room, listen to the trumpets, and those who are called go upstairs quickly." Then she glanced at the unlucky beautiful girl, "You sleep in the firewood room."

That Xiu Nu's face was pale, but she was so frightened that she didn't dare to say a word.

The rest of the show girls were also trembling, for fear that if they were not careful, they would end up in the same unlucky end.Therefore, as soon as they heard the call of the show girls, they would go upstairs quickly, not daring to stay for a while.

Xian Hui went upstairs to the room alone, looked at the empty room, and sighed.

She went to bed, her mind was full of thoughts, how much did her brother believe her words?Did it go well on the way back?Did mother and sister cry together?And myself, can I come back smoothly this time?May God bless you.

Tossing and turning, tossing and turning, tossing and turning until midnight, still not sleepy.

"呵呵..." In the silent room, there was a slight movement suddenly.

what sound?Xian Hui was too frightened to make a sound, so she opened the curtain and looked around, but she didn't see anything in the first round, she thought it was a mouse or something.But after a pause, there was another thin "呵呵" sound, something was wrong, she got off the bed with bare feet, and looked around in a wider area.

Suddenly, his gaze paused, and the door bolt was moving aside bit by bit, someone was secretly opening the door!
——She was so scared that she quickly covered her mouth!
who?Murder for money?No, no, no, the people who live here today are all beautiful girls.

Not to mention that the show girls have no money to gain, but because of the strict security, there shouldn't be thieves coming in, and they didn't alarm the guards outside at all, how weird is it?Could it be that the shopkeeper of this inn is crazy?But what are they planning?Why do you have to find yourself?
In the blink of an eye, Rong's voice suddenly floated in my ears, "Wait! You will be happy later!"

Could it be her?Yang or Shao Tongyun? !
No!Don't worry about these things now, the important thing is, what should I do? !
Shout for help?I'm afraid that before the patrolling guards outside the inn rushed in, the thieves would have already killed in. In their panic, they must have chopped off their own heads first!

what to do?What are you going to do with yourself?

Could it be... tonight is the time for my own death?No, you can't sit still!
