Chapter 443 The wolf is coming
"But no matter what, you still have to take care of your health. How about you find an inn first and catch up with us tomorrow?" Gu Qingyuan looked at him worriedly.
She will definitely be careful herself, and besides, the Sixth Princess will not attack her again for a while.
Jing Qianfan thought about it and refused.
"Master, don't worry. I've been fine even after not resting for several days. This time, I'll follow you and make sure you're alright on the road before I can rest assured!"
He still remembered the wounds on her body when he applied medicine to his master just now. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he wished he could tear the person who hurt her into pieces.
"OK then."
Seeing that he couldn't be persuaded, Gu Qingyuan had no choice but to let him do what he wanted.
After dawn, the Sixth Princess opened her eyes and saw Gu Qingyuan sitting next to her.
After a night of rest, Gu Qingyuan's injuries had healed a lot. After treating her wounds, she caught up with the carriage at an extremely fast speed and returned.
The driver in front was bribed by her and did not reveal anything.
The Sixth Princess asked her hypocritically, "Is Young Master Gu's injury okay? Is it serious?"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I'm feeling better now."
As night fell, the Sixth Princess and Cuizhu could no longer hold on and fell asleep.
They didn't know that Gu Qingyuan had already gotten out of the car to treat his wounds.
The carriage continued to move forward and passed through other cities.
The journey may seem calm and uneventful, but in fact it is turbulent.
Finally, when we were about to arrive at Jiangcheng, there was a sudden jolt.
The Sixth Princess angrily asked, "What's going on?"
The bump just now caused her head to hit the roof of the car, and the jewelry she was wearing on her head came into contact with her scalp, causing the Sixth Princess to feel a pain in her head.
The woman driving the carriage explained, "Your Highness, the wheel was punctured, so..."
Gu Qingyuan got off to check first and found that it was just as the coachwoman said, the rear wheel of the carriage was flat and there was a splinter stuck in it.
"What should we do now? Should we just stop halfway?"
There is no village or shop nearby, so it will probably take some time even if we find someone to repair it.
Gu Qingyuan took the initiative to say: "Your Highness, please wait a moment. I will give it a try."
She rolled up her sleeves and pulled the splinter out of the carriage tire.
But when she got the wooden splinter, she was puzzled. Where did it come from? How did it happen to puncture their carriage tire?
Gu Qingyuan asked, "Do you have a spare tire?"
The woman driving the car shook her head.
Gu Qingyuan stood up again.
She said, "How about I ride to the front to see if there's anyone repairing the car? Your Highness, how about you wait a moment?"
This was exactly what the Sixth Princess wanted. She had been thinking about how to find an excuse to get Gu Qingyuan away and attack her. Now, wasn't the opportunity here?
The Sixth Princess said to Gu Qingyuan, "Then hurry up. I don't want to wait here any longer."
Gu Qingyuan mounted his horse and rode forward.
Cuizhu asked the Sixth Princess, "What if Gu Qingyuan doesn't come back? We can't stay here forever, right?"
The Sixth Princess immediately said, "She dares!"
Afterwards, the Sixth Princess smiled sinisterly, "Don't worry, she probably won't be coming back."
After Gu Qingyuan rode away on horseback, he suddenly felt that something was wrong with the horse.
Although she tried to keep her balance and control the horse, it still tried to throw her off.
Moreover, the horse let out a neigh with a hint of pain.
Not until the horse raised its front hooves and stood on its hind hooves did Gu Qingyuan slip off the horse's back.
The ground was covered in blood. She looked back and found that wherever the horse had passed, there were red blood marks left.
It turned out that wooden spikes had been driven into the horse's hooves, and the horse was in great pain every time it took a step, which was why it was so anxious.
The horse was a little manic and wanted to hit Gu Qingyuan.
It remembered that it was this woman who was riding on it just now, so its feet hurt so much.
Gu Qingyuan dodged the horse's attack at an extremely fast speed, but the horse was unwilling to give up.
She still had the whip in her hand, and she swung it when the horse rushed towards her.
The hurt horse still did not give up attacking her. Gu Qingyuan then discovered that the horse's eyes were a little red and it looked out of control.
Okay, so this horse was also designed specifically for the Sixth Princess, and the puncture of the carriage tire was probably not a coincidence.
Gu Qingyuan's eyes turned cold. He took out the poison hidden in his chest and poured the poison into the horse's mouth when the horse came over. He then took the opportunity to pierce the horse's body with his sword.
The horse fell to the ground with a thud.
After confirming that it was really dead and motionless, Gu Qingyuan stepped forward and saw several wooden thorns stuck in the horse's hooves.
She used her sword to cut open the horse's belly and saw the undigested grass inside.
In the grass, it seems to be a drug that can make horses manic.
"You wouldn't have thought, I'm quite hard to kill."
Gu Qingyuan pursed his lips and put the sword back into the scabbard.
the other side.
The woman driving the carriage betrayed Gu Qingyuan without hesitation and said to the Sixth Princess, "Young Master Gu got off the carriage while you were resting last night and returned a while later."
The Sixth Princess asked, "Do you know why she got off the carriage?"
The woman shook her head. "I don't know."
The Sixth Princess smiled coldly, "The horse was given medicine, she must be worried now."
A brand new carriage came from the other direction. The Sixth Princess said to Cuizhu, "Let's go and take that one."
The woman driving the carriage hurriedly asked, "Then Your Highness, can I go with you?"
The Sixth Princess gave a wink, and Cuizhu went over and took care of her.
"You, you guys!"
The woman died before she could struggle.
The Sixth Princess didn't even look back and called Cuizhu to follow her.
Anyway, that woman's mission has been completed, so why keep her around?
It was she who deliberately asked the woman to put thorns on the ground to puncture the tire, and it was also she who prepared the medicine to make the horse manic.
Even if Gu Qingyuan could come back alive, wouldn't it be enough to just put the blame on that woman?
The Sixth Princess made up her mind and got on the spare carriage.
As for waiting for Gu Qingyuan to come back?
She was not that stupid. It was not certain whether Gu Qingyuan could come back alive. If she really had to wait, she didn't know how long she would have to wait.
Sitting in the larger, more spacious and comfortable carriage, the Sixth Princess breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhaomei and Panmei arrived in Jiangcheng first. Out of boredom, they dug a hole and waited for Gu Qingyuan to come.
"Brother, how long do you think it will take for the young master and his sister to arrive?"
"It should be soon."
Zhaomei is actually not sure either.
They had no place to live, so they turned into foxes and dug a hole for themselves to crawl into.
They also had wolf skins on their bodies.
Suddenly, a pair of green eyes appeared at the entrance of the cave.
"Brother, it seems like the wolf is coming again!"
