Chapter 1155: Chapter 1067: How Many Times Can You Save Them?

"A document?"

The officer hastily took it with both hands and looked at it carefully. Seeing that it was indeed a genuine document, he then handed it back to Su Pan’er with both hands and gestured to let us through.

Su Pan’er steered the carriage out of the city gate, following the embankment of the moat. After traveling more than two miles, she turned the carriage onto a small path.

By the time she stopped the carriage, there was not a soul in sight.

"All right, get off here!"

Su Pan’er alighted from her carriage, carefully surveying her surroundings, and shook the horsewhip in her hand with an exceptionally indifferent tone.

The quiet around her was broken only by the ceaseless falling of snowflakes from the sky—nothing else stirred. This place, along the small road, led upwards towards Huangjue Temple and Quiet Cloud Nunnery and could also take one up the mountain. It was a good spot, twisting around it was the official road for fleeing to outer territories.

"What’s wrong—don’t you plan to get out, or would you like me to personally invite you out of the carriage?"

Su Pan’er spoke again, suddenly turning her head to look at the carriage.

The empty carriage suddenly rippled with a layer of invisible, water-like waves. When the waves dispersed, they revealed two figures in the carriage, a person and a pig.

The rascal pig lay half-closed eyes within the basket of green vegetables, seemingly asleep yet watching the person inside the carriage.

Jun Ruoxue was pale, lying in the carriage wrapped in a mink-fur long robe. At hearing the words, she struggled to open her eyes and, gritting her teeth, tried to get up. Clad in the long mink-fur robe and clutching her belly, she carefully stepped down from the carriage.

Facing Su Pan’er again, many expressions flitted across Jun Ruoxue’s face—excitement, guilt, confusion, hesitation, inner conflict... a whirlpool of emotions nearly overwhelmed her.

"Why... why did you save me?"

Jun Ruoxue bit her lip, unable to understand how things had come to this point.

Initially, her people had rescued her from Lord Zhang’s men and planned to take her and Princess Anping out of the Imperial City overnight, but she suffered from fetal gas and any further reckless movement endangered the child within her.

Of course, she refused and chose to hide in the shadows, waiting for a miracle to happen.

Regrettably, the miracle did not occur, and instead, those sent to lead the pursuers away did not return. Cold and hungry, with fierce pains in her belly, she was dazed and nearly resigned to meeting her end—when she suddenly heard noise from outside.

Before she could feel relieved, she saw the person she least wanted to encounter!

"Save you?"

Su Pan’er methodically adjusted the cloak on her body, shaking the accumulated snow from it and brushing it clean before putting it back on her head.

Only then did she turn to look at her. "No, you’re mistaken! I did not save you."

A look of puzzlement flickered in Jun Ruoxue’s eyes.

"The one I saved is Younger Sister Xue’er from Yongze County–the lively, endearing, helpful girl who was like a sister to me!"

After speaking impassively, Su Pan’er scrutinized her from head to toe, then shifted her gaze away, "Unfortunately..."

Jun Ruoxue’s complexion turned even paler, her ashen lips quivering without producing a sound.

"In those days, she helped me escape from Yongze County Town; now, I have aided her escape from the Imperial City. With this life-saving debt, we are even..."

As Su Pan’er finished speaking, Jun Ruoxue’s body swayed, almost falling, and she quickly steadied herself against the carriage.

But she said nothing.

These words shattered the last shred of hope in her heart, and she couldn’t describe the feeling inside. In her youthful ignorance, she had been as good to Su Pan’er as she had been jealous of her in later years.

Even when Su Pan’er had appeared unexpectedly, she had thought the other woman had come to take her life. But instead, Su Pan’er administered acupuncture to her, secured her pregnancy, and then transported her out of the Imperial City via carriage.

She did not trust these words she was hearing, but alas, she was muted by a pressure point and couldn’t speak even if she wished.

Now, with those utterly ruthless words, she, who had always received an aristocratic family education, found herself utterly at a loss for words.

Su Pan’er had no grand expectations for her to say anything, her gaze moving downward as she once more focused on her belly.

"Although I’ve administered acupuncture for you, it can only offer temporary relief. You’d better stay in bed and find a good doctor to see you."

Once she finished speaking, without waiting for a response, Su Pan’er turned and climbed onto the carriage, pulling on the reins to urge the horse, and made a U-turn back.

"Wait!"

As the carriage started moving, Jun Ruoxue hurriedly chased after it for a few steps, but she couldn’t keep up with the carriage’s speed, so she had no choice but to shout loudly, "Sister Pan’er, thank you!"

The carriage showed no sign of stopping, and it was unclear if the person on the carriage heard her as it continued straight ahead, turned onto the main road, and headed back.

Left behind, Jun Ruoxue still stood in her original spot, watching the carriage grow more distant, becoming smaller and smaller, until the carriage took a turn and completely vanished from sight.

"Drive!"

Su Pan’er urged the horse forward.

The rascal pig wobbled out of the wicker basket and sat next to Su Pan’er, fluttering its fan-like pig ears.

"Was going to all this trouble to help her worth it?"

"There’s no question of worth, only a clear conscience!"

Su Pan’er chuckled softly, "I saved her once, but could I save her a second or third time? If she insists on defying His Majesty, seeking her own demise, there’s nothing I can do."

"Alright then!"

The rascal pig grunted in its piggy voice, "Humph! Every time you call me out, I end up being the laborer. If it weren’t for Grandpa Pig’s ability to create illusions, making everyone unable to see that woman, could you have brought her out of the city so easily? Humph..."

"Yes, yes, yes, you’re the great hero, your contribution is the most significant, rest assured! I keep all this in mind. Once we’re back, I’ll arrange for a whole roast lamb to be prepared for you, how about that?"

The rascal pig was immediately delighted!

"That’s more like it! Heh heh..."

The rascal pig’s eyes whirled around eagerly, "There’s one more thing you need to do for Grandpa Pig."

"What’s that? Tell me!"

"Heh heh... well, it’s that Grandpa Pig wants to have a bed made, a really big bed that Grandpa Pig can completely stretch out on!"

"Done! It’s just a bed, after all, I’ll find someone to make it once we’re back."

"It must be bigger than a city wall, otherwise, it won’t fit Grandpa Pig, heh heh!"

"It’s possible." She said through gritted teeth.

"I want a splendid and golden bed."

"...Fine!" Su Pan’er said through gritted teeth.

"I want such a big bed."

The rascal pig spat out a piece of gold, looking at Su Pan’er with hope in its eyes.

Suddenly, Su Pan’er burst into severe coughing, followed by a roar, "...Dream on! You damn pig, don’t even think about it!"

The rascal pig shrank its neck a bit.

"No, wait! Can’t I, Grandpa Pig, provide the materials myself? Come on, good Pan’er, good Pan’er, can we or can’t we? This has been Grandpa Pig’s dream for so many years, you must help me..."

Piercing screams like that of a dying pig emanated from the carriage, causing passersby to turn their heads and stare.
