Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child

The three returned to the inn.

Angelica first handed the purchased medicinal materials to Luo Pingsha, and then ran to find Yu Curly.

She repeated her conversation with Lu Yao and asked at the end.

"Sister, does Young Master Lu suspect us?"

Yu curled his head and nodded: "Well."

Their disguise is not rigorous, as long as Lu Yao is intentional, he will definitely be suspicious.

Angelica hurriedly asked, "What shall we do next?"

Yu curled up soothingly.

"take it easy.

Since he didn't come to ask us directly, it means that he has no idea of ​​tearing the window paper with us for the time being.

That being the case, we pretended that nothing happened and continued on.

After Xingning, we parted ways with him. "

Angelica nodded: "Yes."

The night passed quickly.

The next morning, they had breakfast and were ready to continue their journey. Unexpectedly, as soon as they opened the door, they saw many people standing outside the inn, among them the local county magistrate.

As soon as he saw Lu Yao, he immediately stepped forward to greet him.

"Master Lu."

Lu Yao frowned, showing dissatisfaction.

"Didn't I tell you not to disturb me? Why did you bring so many people to find me?"

The county magistrate hurriedly apologized: "Please, Mr. Lu Haihan, it is not because the subordinate officer deliberately disturbed you, but the county governor sent someone to send a secret order to let the subordinate officer keep you here for two days. After two days, the officers and horses of the county governor's office will meet. Came here to take you home."

If it was before, Lu Yao should have agreed to stay and waited obediently for someone to pick him up.

But now he is in a hurry to go home and find his father to ask clearly, and he doesn't want to waste any more time here.

So he refused without hesitation.

"You don't have to be so inspiring, I know the way back, I can go back myself, you guys get out of the way."

The county magistrate is very embarrassed: "But the county governor can't explain it."

Lu Yao said solemnly: "I will make it clear to him, even if he wants to be held accountable afterwards, it will be borne by me alone, and it has nothing to do with you!"

Speaking of which, the magistrate knew that the other party was determined to leave, but he couldn't keep it, so he could only step aside and give way.

Lu Yao, Yu Curly and others got into the carriage.

Two carriages and a donkey moved forward, and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.

The magistrate retracted his gaze and instructed the master beside him.

"You immediately write a letter and send someone to Xingning with speed and whip, and tell the county governor about the eldest son."

"Here."

The carriage drove at a constant speed along the official road.

Next, they encountered three rogue robbers one after another.

Without exception, those rogues are all yellow-faced and skinny. They were originally good citizens. After their land and property were taken away, they could no longer survive.

The first two groups of rogues were all sent away by Yu Curly with money.

Only the last batch of rogues can't.

They obviously have already killed people, and they all have murderousness in their eyes.

They were not satisfied with taking only one hundred taels of silver, but they insisted on killing people and stealing all the money.

That being the case, Yu Curly and Lu Yao and the others had nothing to say, they all joined the battle.

Although the group of rogues are vicious, they have never received formal training, and they fight without rules, relying solely on brute force.

After a fierce battle.

In the end, the rogues were defeated, they died and escaped.

Yu curling and Luo Pingsha were fine, only Angelica was slightly injured in order to protect Lu Yao.

Her arm was scratched with a slender slit.

The blood that slowly seeped out dyed the sleeves red.

Lu Yao was furious.

Without even thinking about it, he picked up the angelica and put it in the carriage.

Luo Pingsha washed his hands, opened the medicine box, and began to bandage the wound of Angelica.

The space inside the carriage is limited, and everyone else can only wait outside the carriage.

Lu Yao kept pacing back and forth, his eyes fixed on the carriage, and he was so annoyed.

He hated that he was too careless just now, and only cared about dealing with the rogues in front of him, but he didn't expect that someone would sneak attack behind him, and he was so exhausted that Angelica rushed over to save him.

It was he who killed Angelica!

Thinking of this, Lu Yao raised his hand and gave him a slap in the face.

Yuan Shu was taken aback and hurriedly grabbed him.

"Master, what are you doing?"

Lu Yao said with red eyes, "It's all my fault. If it wasn't for saving me, Angelica wouldn't be hurt."

Yuan Shu comforted: "Don't think so, those rogues are too shameless, you don't want to become like this, you must not take all the blame on yourself."

Lu Yao clenched his fists and made up his mind secretly.

Angelica can go all out for him, he must not live up to her affection.

When he returned to Xingning, he told his family that he was leaving his relatives.

Luo Pingsha jumped out of the carriage and said to Yu Wei.

"The wound is not deep and has been bandaged. In the next few days, be careful not to let her move her arms, change the dressing on time every day, and don't let the wound touch the water."

Yu curling nodded to indicate that he remembered.

At this time, Angelica's head stuck out of the car window and said to Yu.

"Sister, I'm fine, you don't have to worry."

Yu curling looked at her energetic appearance, knowing that she was really fine, and her hanging heart could finally be put down.

Lu Yao walked quickly to the carriage and said to Angelica.

"You have a good rest, and if you need any help, just tell me that this time you were injured because of me, and I will definitely repay you."

Angelica was a little ashamed.

At that time, when she saw Young Master Lu being attacked, she rushed over immediately, trying to repel him, but she slipped and fell, and her body just hit the rogue's blade.

In short, she had no intention of using her body to block the sword for Young Master Lu.

It's all a coincidence!

She tried to explain: "Actually, I didn't expect to be injured. I accidentally bumped into that man's knife. It has nothing to do with you. You don't have to blame yourself for it."

What she said was the truth, but Lu Yao felt that she said it on purpose to ease his psychological burden.

Lu Yao's heart became more and more moved, and his eyes were full of tenderness.

"You don't need to say it, I know it, and I understand your thoughts."

Angelica forehead question mark.

What are your thoughts? What does he know?

Until the carriage restarted, Dang Kui still didn't understand what Lu Yao meant.

She couldn't help but ask Yu Curly for advice.

"Sister, did Young Master Lu misunderstand something?"

Yu Weiwei, who was on the sidelines, smiled unintelligibly: "He probably thought that you were in love with him, so he would stop the knife for him regardless of his life. He must be very moved at this moment."

Angelica's face turned red all of a sudden, and she was too embarrassed to say anything.

"I-I'm not in love with him! Sister, don't talk nonsense!"

The smile on Yu Weiwei's face became more and more intense.

"Then why are you blushing?"

Angelica covered her face with her uninjured hand and forcibly defended herself: "I feel hot!"
