Xiang Jiuling was worried about going to Wenxi alone, so he went to see it with her, and hit it off with the boss. After that, he started to sell her charcoal, and people came to buy it every day.

Seeing that the boss is so generous, Xiang Jiuling is naturally happy and at ease. After all, the secret of her space cannot be exposed, which is considered the best result.

After the negotiation was completed, Xiang Jiuling was in a good mood. Even though the snow outside was getting heavier and heavier, she walked back very briskly.

"We have to walk faster, otherwise it will snow heavily and it will be difficult to walk!"

Seeing that Xiang Jiuling was so happy, Wen Xi unconsciously had a smile on his face. Seeing snowflakes piled up on the road, he couldn't help but urge her.

"It's okay, it's still early anyway, the snow won't be able to cushion it, and it's likely that there will be heavy snow in the evening!"

Seeing that Xiang Jiuling was not worried about the slippery road back home, Wen Xi could only sigh and follow her slowly.

The two of them left a trail of footsteps on the newly fallen snow. Although the weather was cold, their hearts felt warm.

Seeing that they had walked more than half of the distance, the sky became darker and a thin layer of fog appeared, which obstructed people's vision, but it was not bad for the two of them.

"Hey, is there something in front of you?"

Xiang Jiuling suddenly stopped and frowned at a dark shadow not far away. The fog was too thick and he couldn't see what it was.

When Wen Xi heard this, he followed Xiang Jiuling's line of sight and saw a black shadow not far away, but it was obviously not a tree or bush.

"You wait over there, I'll go over and take a look!"

Xiang Jiuling was naturally worried, so the two of them could only approach together.

The two of them approached cautiously, and then realized that the black figure was a carriage that was about to fall apart. The horse had fallen off and disappeared, and only the carriage fell to the ground.

I don’t know how long this carriage has been lying here. The surrounding traces are covered with snow, and there are no clues.

The two looked at each other after checking the scene, and suddenly heard a slight cough coming from the carriage.

This sound startled the two of them. Wen Xi then approached the carriage under Xiang Jiuling's doubtful eyes. However, when he opened the curtain, there was no one inside. Wen Xi checked the bottom of the car again, and sure enough he found someone there.

Falling under the car, he looked like a man in his forties. He was obviously unconscious, and his legs were still pinned under the wheels of the car.

It was freezing cold, and I don’t know how long this man had been frozen here.

Fortunately, Wen Xi had the strength to lift the wheels of the carriage, and Xiang Jiuling took the opportunity to pull the man out from under the carriage. He then looked into his body and did a brief inspection.

"The man is still alive. He has a head injury. He may have been knocked unconscious due to the impact. There is nothing wrong with his legs, but he will need to recover for a few days."

Seeing as the snow is getting heavier and heavier, leaving people here like this is not a problem.

"Take the person back first. It's freezing here. If we don't care about him, I'm afraid he won't survive!"

Fortunately, Wen Xi was in good health and had strong strength, so he carried the person up with almost no effort. However, the road was covered with snow and it was not easy to walk. Due to this delay, it was already dark by the time the two of them got home.

Qin Zhenzhen had already cooked the meal and was waiting for Xiang Jiuling and Wen Xi to come back. When he opened the door, he was startled to see Wen Xi carrying a strange man on his back.

"Sister Xiang, what...what's going on?"

"Zhenzhen, don't be afraid, don't say anything. He's fine. He just fainted. We found him lying on the ground on the road and rescued him. Let's wait until he wakes up!"

Hearing this, Qin Zhenzhen said nothing and called the three children to the other side of the room.

Putting the man on the bed, Xiang Jiuling checked him carefully again and confirmed again that there was nothing wrong with the man's body. He must have been knocked unconscious. He would wait until someone wanted to come over.

Wen Xi stared at the man for a long time, frowned and said, "Looking at the clothes he is wearing, he should be either rich or expensive. I'm afraid he is not an ordinary person. I don't know whether saving him is a good thing or a bad thing."

Their family came to the capital to wash away the grievances of the past. It was better not to provoke an unknown person unless necessary. However, they could not ignore the situation and hoped that this person would not have an impact on them.

After all, Xiang Jiuling was not a real doctor, and there were differences between men and women. After discussing with Wen Xi, he called Dabao, who was studying under the doctor in the city, to show the man a look. The final result was the same as that obtained by Xiang Jiuling.

The family just sat down to eat. Qin Zhenzhen asked about this person's situation, and Xiang Jiuling told what happened.

Recalling the place where the man was found, the carriage was damaged, but it could be seen that it was in good condition, and there were no other people there. It was likely that the man was driving the horse himself, but the road was snowy and slippery and the carriage might have overturned.

While he was pondering the man's identity, he suddenly heard Dabao shouting in the room, "Mom, dad, he's awake!"

Xiang Jiuling and Wen Xi looked at each other, put down their bowls and entered the room.

Sure enough, the man had woken up. He was holding his wound in pain and looking at Dabao in confusion. When he saw Xiang Jiuling and others walking in, he couldn't help but frown, "Where is this? You... who are you?"

"Our family just fled to the capital and found you unconscious after being run over by a carriage on the road outside the city, so we rescued you!"

The man touched his painful forehead and took a breath, seeming to recall what happened before he fell into coma. "So that's it. Thank you very much. By the way, was I the only one when you found me? Is that possible?

See my entourage?"

"Follower? You didn't see it. You were the only one who was crushed under the carriage at that time!"

Xiang Jiuling and Wen Xi looked at each other. Although they could tell from the man's carriage and clothes that his identity was not simple, it was even more evident when he was accompanied by his entourage.

"That's really troublesome for you!"

The man smiled and nodded to Xiang Jiuling. He frowned and touched his leg. He tried to move it but found that it hurt so much that he could only give up and look up at them.

"You two, I'm sorry, I have limited mobility right now. Can you please help me send a message to Zhang's house in Qilu Lane in the city, and they will send someone to pick me up!"

The Zhang family in Qilu Lane is the largest grain merchant in the capital. Is he the Zhang family?

Seeing the suspicion in their eyes, the man suddenly laughed and said, "Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I am not the Zhang family, but the prefect of Lin Jincheng. I made an appointment with the Zhang family master to come here to get food. I didn't expect that.

I was walking too fast and something happened on the road, but thanks to meeting you, otherwise...I'm afraid I would have died!"

Lin Jincheng is a small town near the capital. Xiang Jiuling and the others have not passed by there, but they know the name of the city, and they did not expect that the man is actually the prefect of Lin Jincheng.

"Okay, I will go to Zhang's house early tomorrow morning to deliver the letter. You can rest here today!"
