This time the carriage halted abruptly. Because of the sudden momentum, the unprepared duo fell on the ground.
Both Xiao Anhao and Yao mama groaned in pain. On the ground, their limbs hilariously spared like a butterfly.
"How atrocious! Doesn't that coachman aware that Princess is present here! She even got hurt because of his carelessness!"
Crawling on the floor like roaches, they started to complain about the coachman. Was the coachman newly appointed? How dare he stopped like that! It was such a brutal force, almost broke their bones.
'Was he doing these deliberately? How dare a peasant like him was looking down on Princess Mei!'
To their surprise, Nuwa didn't respond. They deduced that Nuwa might be overlooking everything because she wanted to forgive his negligence.
'She needs to act like a proper princess from now on otherwise she may die before understanding the reason of her death!'
Yao mama pondered. She had been serving the empress dowager for almost her life so she had seen many dirty harem's schemes in her own eyes. Some of them she plotted along with the Empress. So it was normal for her to worry.
On the other hand, Xiao Anhao thought about the reason, 'Why miss is so focused! Is something happen outside?'
Even though Xiao Anhao had been serving Nuwa for such a long time, she never actually understood Nuwa. Nuwa was always calm and collected, unlike the girls of her age who still frowned over the small stuff. Xiao Anhao was almost three years older than Nuwa but she always found herself a baby compared to Nuwa. It was impossible to know what was in her mind.
Nuwa wasn't mindful because she shockingly discovered that the group of bandits was slowly approaching their procession. The flares that were far were slowly getting bigger.
So without minding their remarks, she took out a sharp dagger from her dress and started to wander around the whole carriage's all windows to peek what the situation outside. Actually, she was planning. Too bad, the ruthless Ruo Xie didn't let her go.
She was about to throw half her body out to better see. However, out of nowhere, Ruo Xie's extremely grim face suddenly popped up in front of the window, she almost screamed in extreme fear.
Ruo Xie bitterly looked at Nuwa's horror-stricken face. His mouth twitched with unknown satisfaction at Nuwa's expressive fearful face.
"Close the windows. Don't come out of the carriage if you wanna live. YOUR HIGHNESS!"
Ruo Xie sudden voice almost made Nuwa jump in fright as if she heard the sound of thunder. Her body flinched slightly. It was the first time after Liena's death Ruo Xie spoke to her and she could sense the mocking tone from his voice. Even a fool could understand that he was dissatisfied with the settings. He was totally unwilling to serve and accept her as his master.
If he wanted to blame anyone, blame King Lin. It was King Lin who ordered Ruo Xie to serve her and Ruo Xie knew it better than anyone else. So, why was he still so disrespectful to her?
Ruo Xie disdainfully adjured Nuwa. For him, Nuwa was the luckiest servant girl who somehow climbed the position after hugging Princess Liena's thigh and evil schemes. So, in his eyes, Nuwa was like any palace maid.
Ruo Xie couldn't believe he had to serve this lowly girl instead of her Highness! Day by day she was becoming so brazen that now she didn't even show any ounce of respect to him. How dare she directly looked at his eyes! Was she challenging him???
He didn't understand why everyone was so compassionate about her. She had nothing but a face that had some similarities with her Highness. She wasn't comparable with the Princess.
He cursed Nuwa inwardly.
Taking a deep breath to cool down his head, Ruo Xie roughly closed the window curtains on Nuwa's face. He was doing this deliberately to let her know her place. He would rather die than submitting himself to her.
Following that, he closed the rest of the carriage windows on after another. Finally, he closed them all. The carriage was specially made so it could be closed from both sides for extra caution.
Balling his fist tightly, he left from the carriage site and ordered his subordinates to guard in his place.
Ruo Xie rode on his horse. His calm expression turned frosty when he saw some of the bandits were riding on a horse while others were running barefoot when pointing their swords in a threatening manner and yelling vulgar words at them.
"Give everything you have us if you want to live. Otherwise, we won't spare your lives."
'Dream on!' Ruo Xie's murmured when shouted at his subordinates,
"ATTACK!!!"
*******
Nuwa picked up the vail again from the ground as she again covered her face. She didn't want to waste her breath arguing with this petty man. She knew it was utterly impossible for him to accept her. For him, Liena was the one and only master.
Welp, in this regard both of them, were actually loyal.
Xiao Anhao and Yao mama finally realized that something was off. The way general Ruo Xie behaved just now was rather odd.
Their face turned ashen the next moment when they heard screams from everywhere.
"W-What is happening?" Both of them stuttered in horror.
"Bandits." Nuwa replied curtly.
"W-What will happen now? H-How we will go to the Qiu Kingdom?" Yao mama asked tearfully.
Nuwa didn't reply. She had no idea but she was sure that no matter what, they'll safely reach to the Qiu Kingdom. She had trust in Ruo Xie.
Suddenly Xiao Anhao tightly grabbed Nuwa's hand when taking out a dagger from her sleeves.
"Miss, please stay behind Yao mama. I'll protect you."
Yao mama nodded her head, agreeing with Xiao Anhao.
"Yes, Princess. Please stay behind me." She said like a protective mother hen while Xiao Anhao shoved Nuwa behind her.
Nuwa was frustratingly bitting her lower lips. She really hated being a helpless person. It should be her who will protect others. Not them.
'Damn.'
Nuwa cursed silently. However, she still listened to them. After some arguments, Nuwa silently sat behind Yao mama. She knew it was useless to protest against that stubborn duo. She didn't want to waste her breath so she slowly closed her eyes when comfortably sitting on the sit. Let them manage everything according to their wish.
"AHHH....!!!"
The trio's body jolted in fright when they heard a shrill cry. If they were not wrong, the source of the voice was in their close proximity.
"I-It's the coachman." Yao mama yelled.
All of them were getting more and more nervous as their backs were drenched in cold sweat.
They heard thuds of knocking were coming from the carriage door. The whole carriage was shaking violently as the sound was turning louder and louder as if the door would break at any moment.
