Chapter 4
Chapter 4 — Duyen Tan Truong Dinh
I lightly coughed twice: "Can't say that, after all, we rely on the general's palace to do a lot of business." Van Nguyet couldn't help but laugh: "The monthly cash flow of the rice cake shop in the western city alone is more than the general's annual salary." I nodded: "We and the general's palace consider that no one owes anyone anything." Van Nguyet first smiled, then quietly sighed, advising me: "The road to Xuong Chau is long, miss, you should rest for a while." But not long after leaving the outskirts of the capital, our carriage was surrounded. This is not the first time we have been captured by bandits. I shouted at the maids and women who were about to risk their lives. I said without arrogance or fear: "The heroes just urgently needed money, so I gave them everything." The bandit took the things, flipped through them casually, and smiled: "As expected of the general's wife, she has quite a bit of courage." My heart sank. Being recognized is annoying. The bandits ordered all of us to go up the mountain, their words were very humiliating: "There is a shortage of women in the camp, divide them all among the brothers. If you have good luck, play with young things, if you have bad luck, eat old vegetables." I adjusted my hairpin, straightened my clothes, and softly said to Van Nguyet and the girls: "Don't be afraid, we are not chambermaids." Arriving at the mountain camp, Van Nguyet approached me and said in a low voice: "Miss, we left sugar powder along the way, the general can definitely find it." My heart moved slightly and I smiled bitterly: "Not sure yet." "He hates evil like an enemy. I'm afraid he won't come." Van Nguyet panicked for a moment and quickly comforted her: "There's also the little wolf king..." Before she finished speaking, she closed her mouth. You know, I would rather Sach An not take the risk of coming here. I took a deep breath: "Sach An, like me, doesn't have the talent to practice martial arts. I just hope this time he won't be so sharp." Van Nguyet gritted her teeth and said: "Then risk your life with them. I'm not afraid of death." I hummed softly. I'm not afraid, but I don't want to stumble in the same place again. Not long after, a woman came to give me food. I saw her clothes were torn and her face was silent, so I called her over: "I can't eat, please help me eat this meal." The woman hesitated a bit, then brought up the rice and ate it greedily. Waiting for her to finish eating, I asked her to take me to meet the bandit leader. The bandit leader was a young man, his eyes were extremely gloomy and cold: "I was about to find you, you better come to the door yourself." I clasped my hands and walked two steps forward, my tone firm: "You have a grudge against Tieu Kinh Hanh." "But did you know, Tieu Kinh Hanh just kicked me out of the general's palace because of the new party?" The young man tightened his grip on the armrest and glared at me fiercely: "No way!" "That year, in order to save you, he killed my five uncles! He, you, it's impossible!" I smiled slightly: "You must have delivered the letter to the general's palace and set up a net waiting for him to come to the door, right?" “I bet you he won't come.” "Three days later, if he doesn't come, you let me go. I'll go trick him into coming." The young man thought for a moment and agreed. It didn't take three days, the next day, the mountain camp was already bleeding like a river. I have reduced the drug in alcohol. Since I was poisoned to death by Lam Chi Ly in my previous life, I began to diligently study medical techniques and learn to prepare poison. After the poisonous bandits fell, Van Nguyet killed the bandits who intended to humiliate her first. The women in the camp saw this and also followed Van Nguyet's lead and took action. There were also people who had not yet been poisoned and tried to escape, but I shot them dead with an arrow. 07 After leaving the mountain camp, I saw Sach An rushing to lead people over. Sach An hugged me and cried without a sound. I gently patted its still lonely spine, my eyes went past it, looking towards the curtained carriage. It's Tieu Kinh Hanh coming. My mood is very calm, not even surprised. I just feel that Tieu Kinh Hanh can no longer be needed, I don't need him to save me anymore. The hero who was once worshiped as a god in his heart, upon closer inspection, was nothing more than a clay statue. Tieu Kinh Hanh did not get out of the car, nor did I go near him. Fate has ended, there is no need to say goodbye. Time
Sitting on a horse-drawn carriage to Xuong Chau, I only felt that the future was wide open, the sky and earth were vast. Wait for me to get to Xuong Chau. As soon as I finish arranging the palace, Sach An has arrived. Ten days without seeing each other, Sach An has become much more mature. The look between your eyebrows is less immature and more steadfast. When it holds a cup to drink tea, it looks exactly like Tieu Kinh Hanh's deceased father. Sach An put down the teacup and finally opened his mouth: "Father wants to take Su Uyen." This is both unexpected and unexpected. I asked Sach An: "What do you think?" Sach An laughed coldly: "I want a knife to kill that pair of women." "The General's palace is now the biggest joke in the capital, and father has also become a fool who is plotted by private matters in the house." I sighed, pushed a plate of cinnamon rice cakes to Sach An's hand: "You thought wrong. Even though it was To Uyen's mother who was plotting against your father." "Your father had evil intentions in his heart, so he gave them the opportunity to take advantage. Or at that time, my father also half pushed and half agreed, but just recognized the wrong person."
