"No matter how bad things go for Song Xiang, Meng Xiru will be there to take care of her. If I take action and Zhuang Leyu notices it, I'm afraid she will jump over the wall!"

Jiang Qingyan said anxiously: "Can I just watch Xiang'er in danger?"

"Mother, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to explain to His Majesty?"

Jiang Lan said nonchalantly: "I have my own opinion on this matter!"

"Yan'er, I'm going to visit Song Xiang's backyard in a few days. You come with me!"

Jiang Qingyan frowned and said, "I wonder what my mother saw them doing?"

Jiang Lan said in a daze: "You don't have to worry about these things. Whatever I do is for your own good!"

...

Hangu.

Shen Yubai and Song Xiang pulled six carts of salt and headed eastward towards Puyang Mansion, Meng Xiru's territory. In order to monitor the two of them, Zhuang Luyu's people followed the two of them.

The carriage moved very slowly on the road, and the original four-day journey took six days.

When they arrived at the boundary of Puyang Prefecture, Zhuang Heyu's people came forward and asked them to take a detour. They also warned Shen Yubai that if they were caught by Meng Xiru's people, Shen Yubai and Shen Yubai would be forced to walk around without food!

Shen Yubai was not used to it. Since he had arrived at Puyang Mansion, he must quickly hand over the six carts of salt to Meng Xiru, and then he and Song Xiang returned to Xuanyang.

Who would have thought that Shen Yubai just wanted to take six carts of salt through the checkpoint, but he was chased by Zhuang Luyu's men!

Shen Yubai and Song Xiang ran desperately towards the soldiers from Liushan Town, Puyang Prefecture, but Zhuang Luyu's men acted quickly and had no intention of leaving anyone alive!

"I told you to take a long way around and take the water route, but you have a thief's heart and actually deceived the Lord!"

"Kill them!"

Zhuang Leyu's men swarmed up and chopped Song Xiang's arm!

Song Xiang desperately protected Shen Yubai and ran towards Puyang Mansion, shouting loudly as he ran. Meng Xiru's guards rushed over from the checkpoint, but they were no match for Zhuang Luyu.

"Song Xiang, you run away first and don't worry about me!"

When Shen Yubai saw that Song Xiang's arm was bleeding profusely, he didn't want to drag Song Xiang down.

But how could Song Xiang leave on his own? She pulled Shen Yubai and ran towards Liushan Town to station troops.

"Shen Yubai, hold on. After crossing the river in front, we will reach the Liushan Town garrison. Don't give up!"

Song Xiang protected Shen Yubai all the way and was hit by an arrow in the back: "Shen Yubai, I lost too much blood and have no strength anymore. I can't shout. Please hurry up and call those soldiers to come over for support. Go quickly!"

Shen Yubai held Song Xiang's hand and refused to give up: "We are about to cross the river, there are only a few steps left, you go with me!"

Song Xiang pushed Shen Yubai away and said, "Go quickly! I can still hold them back!"

"Don't forget what that adult told you!"

Shen Yubai gritted his teeth, ran across the river and said, "I'll call someone to rescue you right away!"

Song Xiang stopped and said to the dead soldiers chasing behind him: "We are Lord Zhuang's people, why do you have to kill us all?"

The leader said: "Master Zhuang didn't let you two enter Liushan Town. She asked you to take a detour to the north immediately before arriving at Liushan Town, but you ignored Master Zhuang's order. What are you not spies?"

Song Xiang tried his best to delay Shen Yubai's time and said: "We are free to take whatever road we choose. We have already made it clear to Mr. Zhuang that we will not betray her. We have our own way of crossing Liushan Town. If you kill us, how should you go with us?" Lord Zhuang, please explain?"

The leader said coolly: "You are really sharp-tongued and good at sophistry. Are you trying to trick us into thinking we are fools?"

"Don't be deceived by her again. She must have discussed it with Master Meng's people. Kill her quickly to avoid attracting pursuers!"

Song Xiang secretly said something bad and wanted to run away, but it was too late.

The dead soldier's long knife had already slashed at him. Song Xiang looked at the river behind him and jumped in without thinking.

Shen Yubai saw Song Xiang falling into the river from a distance, and shouted and led people to rush over.

Seeing that their identities had been exposed, the dead soldiers quickly evacuated.

However, these soldiers were outnumbered and quickly captured the dead soldiers. Seeing this, the dead soldiers bit the poison sacs in their teeth and drank the poison to commit suicide.

Shen Yubai begged the soldiers in despair: "My fiancée fell into the river, please help me salvage her!"

The garrison soldiers shook their heads and said: "Master Shen, this river flows all the way downstream to the Wu River. It can't be salvaged!"

Shen Yubai suddenly turned pale and collapsed on the ground. After he came to his senses, he knelt on the ground and begged the commander of the army: "Please save her, please!"

"You didn't salvage her, how did you know she wasn't in the river!"

The commander of the garrison said in a displeased tone: "Even if you bring a letter to Master Meng, we can't let our own people take risks in the river!"

"That can kill people!"

"Your fiancée's life is life, isn't the life of our people also life?"

Then she ordered everyone: "Take him back to the camp!"

The garrison soldiers brought six carts of salt back to their station and reported what happened outside to the heads of thousands of households.

But it was said that Song Xiang jumped into the river. He was panicked at first and drowned several times. In his panic, he touched a piece of driftwood and pulled it along to drift.

When she reached a narrow area, she was exhausted and lost consciousness.

In the middle, she felt like she was being saved, so she vomited a lot of water in a daze, and then fell asleep again!

When I woke up again, it was the next day.

A boy brought a bowl of medicine and put it on the table. When he saw Song Xiang waking up, he said in surprise: "Miss, you finally woke up. I'll call the young master in!"

After a while, a man wearing a black robe walked in. His steps were steady, his eyes were like stars, and he was so handsome that he didn't look like an mundane thing.

"Now that you're awake, drink this bowl of cold-repelling medicine!"

Song Xiang stood up slightly from the bed, leaned down to him and said, "Thank you, Master, for saving my life!"

Mr. Xuanpao said politely: "It's just a little effort. You are not well yet, so you'd better recuperate!"

"My Excellency, Meng Feiji, do you know your lady's name?"

"I don't want to change my name, but I don't want to change my surname, Song Xiang!"

Meng Feiji smiled and said: "Miss, you are quite generous! She has the demeanor of a heroic woman!"

"I wonder why Miss fell into the water?"

Song Xiang said helplessly: "It's a long story. I was also plotted by a bad guy!"

Then she frowned, looked at the surrounding furnishings, and asked, "Where is this place?"

Meng Feiji explained: "This is my other courtyard, Yushan Bamboo Garden. I pulled you here after I rescued you from the river!"

Song Xiang asked doubtfully: "How far is it from Puyang Mansion?"

Meng Feiji didn't answer but asked: "What did Miss Song do in Puyang Mansion?"

Song Xiang sighed slightly, coughed several times and said, "I have something to meet Master Meng... Hey... your surname is Meng... are you still not close to Master Meng?"

Meng Feiji said in a hearty tone: "Miss Song is very perceptive. Lord Meng is my mother-in-law!"
