Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy

Xu Yixing blinked and looked at Siqin. She really hoped that Siqin would not go up with her. After all, she didn't know how many bandits would come later. If she accidentally hurt them, it would be bad.

Siqin tilted her head and said with great embarrassment: "It's better for me to accompany you up. Anyway, I have nothing to do in the mansion all day, so now is a good time to go out for a walk."

"Okay." Then just don't regret it later.

To go up the mountain from the foot of the mountain, most people would choose to take a car or a sedan chair. Of course, ordinary people can only choose to walk up by themselves.

Occasionally, some dignitaries would climb up from the foot of the mountain, kneeling down one step at a time, in order to show their piety.

Xu Yixing chose the latter today. Of course, she didn’t have such a strong desire, so there was no need to kowtow to him.

When he had only walked one-third of the way, Xu Yixing was already out of breath.

If I had known earlier, I would have let Yingba intercept me directly at the foot of the mountain. Why would I have gone to such great lengths!

Looking back, there are quite a lot of people here today. Maybe it's because it's almost the festival. There are a lot of people visiting the temple today. The carriage is parked at the mountain gate. You can still see it now, but you probably won't be able to see it clearly if you go up.

"Siqin...are you, are you tired?" Xu Yixing called out to Siqin who was walking in front of him. Why did he feel like she was fine?

"Fortunately, the weather is good and cool today. Miss, your decision is right. You should go up like this!" Siqin walked down a few steps with a smile and reached back to support Xu Yixing.

"Really? Oh, I regret it..." Xu Yixing took a deep breath. This was really a wrong decision.

"Then shall we go down now and then get in the car?"

"Forget it, forget it. It's almost noon. This little time is not enough for us to mess around."

"Okay, I'll walk behind you. There are so many people here today, I'm afraid we'll be squeezed out..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd on the first few steps suddenly began to make a commotion. The two men were confused and looked up at the same time.

I saw someone in front of me who was rushing down against the crowd. It seemed that he had some argument with the person in front of him and was pushing and shoving.

Seeing this, Siqin immediately pulled Xu Yixing to the innermost part of the mountain trail to avoid being hit by anyone in front of her if they fell.

Siqin was only focused on looking up, but didn't notice that Xu Yixing behind her had already revealed a bright smile: Great! We are finally here, and we don't have to climb the mountain this time!

Just when everyone's eyes were focused on the hillside, a man quietly came from the foot of the mountain, walked behind Xu Yixing, grabbed her, carried her on his back and ran away!

What's even more bizarre is that this man, carrying someone on his back, could walk on the steps of the mountain road as if it were flat ground, and he could even avoid the group of people in front of him and gradually put some distance between himself and Siqin.

Xu Yixing shouted, "Help! Someone is robbing me!"

Siqin turned around blankly, only to find that the Second Young Lady, who was originally behind her, had disappeared.

"Ah!!! Help!" Siqin almost jumped down from the stairs, but unfortunately she didn't know martial arts, and the consequence of being so anxious was that she fell to the ground.

The two people who were originally arguing halfway up the mountain seemed stunned when they saw this sudden change. They looked at each other and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

Xu Yixing grabbed the man's back. She knew very well that this was not Yingba. It seemed that the bandit gang had sent other people to kidnap her.

This young man is not bad. He has such great skills that he can become a bandit. It would be great if he could be recruited into the Shadow Guard team.

But this is just a thought. The selection of shadow guards requires training from a young age, and this person cannot meet this requirement.

The man quickly reached the foot of the mountain, stuffed her into an ordinary carriage, and drove away quickly. The whole process took only a few moments.

After entering the carriage, the man was still staring at him. Just as Xu Yixing was about to speak, he was stuffed with a black cloth and his hands and feet were tied up.

What's going on? Didn't Yingba make it clear to his accomplices to be gentle with me?

But she soon felt relieved. She thought that Yingba couldn't tell everything to the bandits. After all, he had to do the whole show, which would make it more realistic.

I spent two thousand taels to have someone kidnap me, and I have to ask my family for a ransom of ten thousand taels. These were all discussed in advance. Although my father is not at home now, Gu will definitely pay, otherwise my father will scold me to death when he comes back.

Even if she doesn't pay, that's fine. The real purpose of Xu Yixing's action is just one sentence: kidnap the girl and don't keep her overnight.

What does this mean? It is the experience summed up by the bandits themselves: if they kidnap an unmarried woman, their family will definitely redeem her before nightfall that day. Because if they stay overnight, it means that the woman's reputation will be lost.

Xu Yixing scoffed at this. Could it be that a woman's innocence could be judged by whether she spent the night outside? Humph!

But this time she really did use these remarks. As long as Yingba kidnapped her and found some excuse to release her tomorrow, she would become an "unclean" person and her marriage with Lu Anyuan would be called off.

After spending such a huge price, Xu Yixing hated Lu Anyuan from the bottom of his heart! Look at you, if you had made a good name for yourself in the brothel last time, wouldn't I have to spend all this time?

The carriage ran almost all the way, and even changed carriages once on the way down the mountain. Xu Yixing and the man who kidnapped him jumped into another carriage through the window.

They are really professional! It's obvious that this group of bandits are experts in robbing and looting. After taking advantage of them, they can be wiped out by the officers and soldiers. That will also be a way to eliminate harm to the people.

The new carriage seemed to have made a circle on the mountain road, but Xu Yixing was very sure that it was not the way back to the north gate or into the mountains.

It’s strange, where is this person going to take me?

But Xu Yixing was not panicked because she had a good idea in mind. Even when she was thrown on the car board, she just closed her eyes and listened to the noise outside, as obedient as a little white rabbit.

I don't know how long the carriage drove, but it suddenly slowed down, as if it was waiting in line for something.

"Next...next!"

There are people outside the car window maintaining order. Huh? Is this the inspection at the city gate?

Xu Yixing felt a little strange. Although she didn't care where she was taken, returning to the city was definitely not in her plan. The bandits were staying in the city?

But she soon found out that she was wrong. It was not through the city gate. It was obviously a place with stricter inspections than the city gate.

When it came to my car, the people outside seemed to negotiate for a while, and did not search the car, so they let me in.

Xu Yixing felt more and more uneasy. Oh no, this could be... Could he have really been kidnapped?
