Chapter 17 Down the Mountain

Chen Jingting suddenly asked, "Do you know why the bandits caught you?"

Jinning said: "I don't know, maybe it's the same as capturing the prince."

Even if Changsun Ba and Captain Liang of Jingzhaofu was proven to be useless, without any evidence, it would alarm the enemy.

Changsun Ba is not easy to deal with, and Chen Jingting does not believe her completely now. It is better to guide him to think in the direction she guessed.

Chen Jingting accepted this statement more. He originally speculated that the prince was arrested because of the case of corruption in Fuzhou and Beijing officials. Lord Li was the general leader of the inspection yamen and Duke Chen was the supervisor. Therefore, perhaps someone wanted to use their children as a threat.

If this guess is correct, that is, this person colludes with the bandits.

"Who knows if you are out with the girl?" Chen Jingting asked.

Jinning knew that he was extremely smart. He thought that he would stop thinking about this issue at this dangerous moment and settle down after returning to the mansion, but his mind immediately followed.

Jinning couldn't help but sigh softly. This person is so smart that people are scary.

"Are you a person in my mansion?" Jinning thought for a moment.

"Who else is there except the people in your mansion?" Chen Jingting asked again.

Jinning thought about it seriously, "It's gone."

She knew that Chen Jingting had already started to speculate at the Duke's Mansion.

"Will you have any personal grudges between you when you meet General Changsun that day?" Chen Jingting asked again.

Jinning's voice was indescribable in the darkness, "I can't talk about personal grievances, but you probably know the matter between Changsun Yan'er and Li Liangsheng."

Chen Jingting said lightly: "I don't know much."

"Changsun Yan'er is pregnant with my fiancé's child. She wants to marry into the Marquis' Mansion, that's it." Jinning said calmly.

The silence slowly spread in the darkness. After a long time, Chen Jingting said: "The adoptive father said that the future mistress of the Marquis' Mansion can only be you."

These words seemed to be comforting, but they had no feelings when they heard the sound.

Jinning refused to comment, but said politely, "Thank you!"

The two of them were speechless. Huilin was already asleep, but kept grabbing Jinning's sleeve.

When the sky turned white, Xiao Hei rushed in. The bandits must have been Mingjin's retreat.

"We have to leave immediately." Jinning stood up and stretched out his muscles and bones that had almost shrunk into a ball. "Now, I've been alerting the snake. I guess the bandits will move tonight. The general will go back and bring people to suppress the bandits immediately."

Chen Jingting's handsome face was covered with a layer of condensation, "Let's go."

He picked up Huilin, and the three of them started to slowly go down the mountain with a wolf.

Jinning's injury was not important, but it was still difficult to walk the mountain road. The wound would hurt and bleed when it moved. However, after only one mile, the position of his arms and calf was already bleeding.

"I'll carry you." Chen Jingting held her hand and said with a light face.

Jinning shook his head, "This little injury is not a problem."

Chen Jingting put down Huilin and pulled her to sit down, "I'll help you bandage the wound again, so it's easier to walk."

The most serious thing is the sword injury in the calf.

Jinning didn't avoid it either. She sat down and lifted the hem of the skirt and pulled up the leg of her trousers. Her left calf was swollen. The wound was very deep. It was about a piece of fingers long, with the skin turning outward and blood seeping.

"The injury is so serious, why don't you say it?" Chen Jingting's voice was filled with furious anger.

"What's this injury?" Jinning smiled.

Chen Jingting rarely gets along with women, but he also knows how much pain she is. He has seen a young lady who is just a little bit of skin and wants to scream like death.

She was so hurt that she didn't even say a word.

He cut off his robe and slowly bandaged her wounds. There were a few small scars around his white calves, which were scratched by a sword, and it was not important.

Jinning leaned against the tree and saw him bandaging himself with concentration, feeling very moved.

In her opinion, he and she were both lonely souls.

The two people who were already dead were pulled back by some force.

Unbelievable.

She remembered the events of her previous life and was a little worried. In her previous life, Chen Jingting died on the battlefield. So, will this still happen in this life?

Maybe not? At least many things have changed in this life. She will not go to war with Li Liangsheng again, so he will not die just because of saving her.

She comforted herself so much, but she always felt a shadow in her heart, and she kept thinking about the scene before his life and death in her mind.

The two armies have reached a critical moment, and it is a life-and-death battle. There is no way out. Only by fighting out can you have the chance to survive.

On the battlefield, bloody corpses were everywhere, with broken hands and feet and even the heads were cut off with one knife, which was within reach.

Li Liangsheng was besieged by the enemy and could not kill him. She flew over from the horse and took him onto the horse. The horse was frightened and ran away suddenly. Li Liangsheng was pushed and pushed her back with both hands, and she actually pushed her down. She was in danger.

I thought I would die without a doubt, but I saw a big knife lifting the enemy's spear, and a big hand pulled her up and threw her out. She turned around in panic, but saw a spear passing through his chest and blood splattered out.

She suddenly thought of something. In fact, she had thought about it in her previous life, but that thought was just fleeting.

Li Liangsheng was not accidentally pushed to her by the horse, but he deliberately pushed her off the horse and led the enemy away to escape.

She closed her eyes, took a breath of cold air, and hatred rushed into her mind.

She actually loved such a selfish, timid, despicable and vicious man for five years, and she was willing to die for him.

"It hurts?" Chen Jingting asked when he heard her breathing sound.

But I saw a raging fire burning in her eyes. What flashed by was murderous intent?

Jinning restrained his expression, "No, I just suddenly remembered something that made people angry."

Chen Jingting had no expression on his face, but there was a little more thought in his eyes.

"Is your injury important?" Jinning asked when he saw the blood stained on his shoulder.

"It's not a problem." Chen Jingting stood up and glanced at the bright red on his shoulders, "The wounds of flesh and blood."

Jinning knew that he could tolerate the pain.

Once in his previous life, he was injured by an arrow, and the arrows were penetrated through his abdomen. When the military doctor pulled the arrows for him, he was short of painkillers and the war was tight, so he could only draw the arrows. But he didn't frown, it was an arrow with a barb.

All the way down the mountain, Prince Huilin was very obedient.

Chen Jingting's horse was tied to the woods at the foot of the mountain, and he said, "Ride my horse and take Prince Huilin back first."

The two of them rode together, and the horse could bear it, but the way back was the official road. How many people watched him? He was not good enough to hurt Jinning's reputation.
