Where prosperity ends, flowers never end

Chapter 171 Rescue

The summer breeze brought a gust of green, and the paper lanterns flew farther and farther, as if they had flown into the Milky Way.

Hong Fan stood among the crowd with her beautiful figure, her high ponytail fluttering gracefully. Standing under the beautiful scenery, she was the envy of all the other mandarin ducks.

"Today my father taught me a new skill, which is very useful for hunting pheasants. I will go to Xiao County to teach you how to practice it. Hong Fan, the tenth day of the sixth month in the seventeenth year of Taichang."

After reading one side, Ran Qianxi found that there was writing on the other side, so she turned the paper lantern half a circle.

"How are you doing recently? Your mother is ill, and your father is worried and worried. Have you kept yourself warm? It has snowed in Xiao County, right? Hong Fan, the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month in the seventeenth year of Taichang."

A paper lantern and two letters, all of which expressed the care and concern that Hong Fan had wanted to express but had not dared to express over the years.

Ran Qianxi looked up suddenly. Perhaps because she had died once, she became more soft-hearted and her eyes turned red.

"What is this? A letter you wrote to me?"

Hong Fan smiled and took the paper lantern. He was young and naive in the past and did not have the courage to express his love. Now that he has grown up, he is afraid to express his love again.

"Oh, I wrote these for fun. I wanted to give them to you, but I didn't. Do you think they are stupid to read?"

"Give it to me?"

Ran Qianxi stood there in a daze, forgetting to move forward. The feelings that had been secretly hidden for years were poured out to her in an instant, leaving her helpless and choking with sobs.

“Have you written so much?”

Hong Fan looked up at the sky covered by paper lanterns, and thinking back, he felt a little silly.

"Yes, they are all written for you."

She didn't know how to accept this belated confession of love. Even if it had happened a few days earlier, it wouldn't have been so awkward. Now she and Qian Youren had already expressed their feelings to each other.

"I, I, I..."

Before she could finish her stammering words, she suddenly burst into tears, and Hong Fan was so scared that he immediately stepped forward to wipe her tears.

"What's going on here?"

Ran Qianxi looked at her with tears in her eyes, and her crying made her even more heartbreaking.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? Now I'm with Qian Youren."

The words "she is already with Qian Youren" made both of them heartbroken. Tan Qianhuan suddenly fell into the cold pond on the glacier while standing on the bridge.

Seeing Hong Fan looking sad, Ran Qianxi threw herself into his arms.

"How about...how about I go with him on Monday, Wednesday and Friday...and you on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday..."

Hong Fan burst into laughter. She was always humorous when she shouldn't be, which made people feel helpless.

"Haha, if Brother Qian doesn't mind, I'd be happy to do so."

Ran Qianxi sobbed and crawled out of his arms, staring at him blankly.

"Then...I'll go back and discuss it?"

Hong Fan touched her forehead impatiently and wiped her tears gently and carefully.

"How dare you discuss such a thing. Since you are not married yet, I think I can make further efforts."

Ran Qianxi wiped away her tears. She was familiar with the trick of pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.

"That's okay too."

Hong Fan held her back in his arms, and she immediately relaxed her brows. When she turned her head, she was stunned to see Tan Qianhuan standing with his hands behind his back!

"I go!"

She stood up in shock, turned around and ran away. Hong Fan stood there in confusion. Suddenly, a silver-white figure flashed past him quickly!

He frowned as he watched her chasing him and ran away, and chased after her without hesitation.

He ran all the way back to the mansion and hurriedly ordered Zhuge Liang to close the door.

"Hurry up!"

Zhu? and the servants hurriedly closed the door, and Ran Qianxi ran towards the principal wife with sparks flying all the way!

"Run, run, run. Damn it! Why is this guy haunting us?"

She muttered as she cleaned up.

"Where are we going this time? Nanyue? No, no, no, it's dangerous. Otherwise, let's go to Xiangxi!"

After packing my bags and opening the door, I ran into Tan Qianhuan and Hong Fan flying over the wall.

"No way? So soon?"

Hong Fan stepped forward first, but was surpassed by Tan Qianhuan.

Danger was imminent, and Ran Qianxi, with a confused mind, had only one thought in mind.

"No, I can't let him know that I'm reborn."

"Xier..."

Hong Fan glanced at Tan Qianhuan and found that Ran Qianxi was avoiding him, so he immediately stepped forward and protected Ran Qianxi behind him.

"Are you afraid of him?"

Ran Qianxi smiled awkwardly and didn't dare to speak. Tan Qianhuan also stepped forward.

"Xi'er, why are you hiding from me?"

He was obviously asking a question even though he knew the answer. Ran Qianxi had no choice but to respond accordingly.

"Your Highness, you are joking. Why would I hide from you?"

Although he denied it, his body honestly hid behind Hong Fan without moving.

"Well... I have a cold... I am afraid that it will be passed on to the prince... The prince should leave the house..."

Tan Qianhuan took another step forward, and Hong Fan immediately made a move, and the two of them were fighting in a moment.

Taking advantage of the break in the fight, Ran Qianxi nimbly climbed over the high wall, and immediately chased after Qian Youren, who had run out after hearing the noise.

At the same time, Xie Ying also walked out of the room and looked at the two people fighting, completely unaware of what was going on.

Ran Qianxi galloped all the way. When she passed the inn, she threw down a silver ingot and quickly mounted her horse, which forced her horsemanship to a new level.

"drive!"

Qian Youren searched for her for a long time but couldn't find any trace of her, so he had to return to Ran Mansion, but he saw Hong Fan standing there injured, and Tan Qianhuan jumped out of the courtyard wall again.

He immediately stepped forward to support Hong Fan, and Xie Ying ordered his men to chase him out secretly.

Passing by the same inn, Tan Qianhuan threw another bag of silver into the store and jumped onto another horse without caring about anything!

The horse galloped for forty miles and it was already the evening of You when they left Yangzhou City. As expected, Ran Qianxi got lost again.

There was no sign of life within five miles. She was so anxious that she put her hands on her hips, but the horse was eating the green grass with relish.

"Oh, where is this..."

The weather was hot and irritating, there was not a breath of fresh air, and the chirping of cicadas made people extremely annoyed.

"You are too impulsive. You will not get lost if you hire a carriage."

She touched the horse's face helplessly. Suddenly, it became dark all around and the horse became frantic.

"Hey hey!"

The Arabian horse was in a state of bestiality and was frightened by something huge. Then, a fishy smell that she had never smelled before came out, and a nearly three-meter-long python stood up.

“Oh my!”

She yelled and jumped two meters away. The python was spitting out poison and seemed to be drooling at the horse...

She backed away step by step, but unexpectedly the horse rushed straight into the depths of the woods, leaving her alone to feed the python.

"Mom..."

The python moved forward little by little, and she immediately threw out a tinderbox. Unfortunately, there was too little fuel, and only a weak flame was ignited, which was burned out in a moment.

At this moment, a dagger suddenly flew from behind the python, and the snake turned around in severe pain.

Ran Qianxi hid behind a tree and looked over curiously. A silver-white figure flew directly to the python!

Looking at Tan Qianhuan and the big snake struggling with each other, Ran Qianxi's mood suddenly became complicated.

"He's been following me?"

After an unknown amount of time, Tan Qianhuan was unfortunately bitten by a python and his arm was covered in blood.

"How to do?"

Tan Qianhuan was still fighting with the python. Recalling the cause and effect of his previous life, Ran Qianxi was conflicted and could not move forward.

After struggling like crazy, she finally picked up the dagger on the ground, used all her strength to stab it into the python's heart, and then she fell on the snake's back, unable to move.

The python struggled desperately and Ran Qianxi was about to be thrown away. Tan Qianhuan was stunned for a moment, then held her right hand and worked together to penetrate the python.

The python let out a wail and fell to the ground.

Ran Qianxi nervously wiped the sweat from her forehead, and when she let go of the dagger, her hands were covered in the smelly snake blood.

"Can't you die?"

Tan Qianhuan stood up silently and held her in his arms.

"Xi'er, I was wrong."

Ran Qianxi was not prepared for his sudden closeness and rolled her eyes uncontrollably.

"What's wrong with apologizing all of a sudden? Do you know you're sorry to me?"

Tan Qianhuan was stunned. Her biggest wish was to escape from himself, and he must not tell her that it was he who reversed the space.

"I don't know why you are avoiding me, but it must be because I did something wrong. I apologize to you."

Ran Qianxi glanced at him and tore open his sleeve.

"This thing is not poisonous, go back and bandage it yourself."
