You are asked to marry in place of the tyrant, and you allow the tyrant to send you to marry?

"Silly! I was just trying to scare you. How could I be jealous of that dog emperor Zhu Yunhao? Let's go back to the palace!"

Wanyan Hongze couldn't help laughing and suddenly felt like crying but had no tears.

He naturally took Du Qingwan's little hand, turned around and was about to leave with a smile.

"Ah? You? Damn Wanyan Hongze! You're playing tricks on me! You deserve a beating!"

Du Qingwan didn't react for a moment and was still a little indignant, but when she was about to shake off Wanyan Hongze's hand, he pulled her tightly away.

"If you want to beat him up, you have to go back to the palace first, right? Let's go! Queen!"

Du Qingwan never dreamed that Wanyan Hongze would actually say such cheesy love words with ulterior motives, and she was speechless for a moment.

She followed Wanyan Hongze all the way back to Tianze Palace in a daze.

……

An abandoned house in the suburbs

"Your Majesty, it's going to rain soon and it's cold at night. Please sit closer to the fire to keep warm."

Seeing Zhu Yunhao pacing back and forth with a very anxious look, Eunuch Liu quickly stood up and walked behind him, speaking with concern.

But at this moment, Zhu Yunhao's mind was full of Du Qingwan, so how could he listen to any advice?

He sighed helplessly, raised his hand and waved it, saying weakly:

"I am only worried about the Queen's safety now, and I don't know whether Wanyan Hongze has rescued her.

I never expected that Jiang Beiheng would be so bold and reckless. He actually dared to betray me and the Queen Mother!"

When mentioning Jiang Beiheng, Zhu Yunhao was still very angry.

If he had the chance to kill Jiang Beiheng with his own hands, Zhu Yunhao would never let him go easily.

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Liu had nothing to say and could only sigh.

"After all, it was the Queen who sacrificed herself to save me.

I am afraid I will never be able to repay her kindness in this lifetime."

Zhu Yunhao was feeling extremely confused, and was shocked when he heard what Eunuch Liu said.

It was rare that Eunuch Liu would have different thoughts about Du Qingwan, and Zhu Yunhao really couldn't believe it.

"The queen is kindhearted by nature. I am not surprised at all that she would sacrifice herself to save you.

You have all seen it with your own eyes. Wherever the Queen goes, she is deeply loved by the people. She is indeed a rare talent."

When mentioning Du Qingwan, Zhu Yunhao's tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed a little, and the corners of his lips subconsciously rose slightly.

I can’t remember how many times it has happened, but Du Qingwan always has a special presence in Zhu Yunhao’s heart.

"Your Majesty is right. The Empress is blessed by nature and is well versed in medicine. Even if Wanyan Hongze didn't find her so quickly, I don't think Jiang Beiheng would be her match."

Eunuch Liu thought for a moment and looked at Zhu Yunhao with a fake smile.

Hearing this, Zhu Yunhao nodded slightly, smiled bitterly and agreed:

"I hope so! I actually hope she can be more cruel and stab that beast Jiang Beiheng to death with one needle!"

Then, the two of them sat down and stretched out their hands to warm the fire.

Zhao'er has always been worried about her master. She has been absent-minded since she separated from Du Qingwan.

"Zhao'er, go outside and get some firewood.

It looks like it’s going to rain soon, and the firewood in the house may not last until dawn.”

"it is good."

Eunuch Liu glanced around the house and found that there was no extra firewood, so he ordered Zhao'er to go out and find some firewood.

Zhao'er did not refuse. He quickly stood up and walked out.

Who would have thought that just as she walked to the middle of the yard and before she could carry firewood into the house, a dark shadow suddenly flashed by and covered her mouth tightly.

"Uh……"

Because it was a dark and windy night, Zhao'er couldn't see the other person's face clearly, so he became extremely frightened and struggled hard.

But the man in black was worried that he would be exposed if he let her go, so he never had the slightest intention of letting her go.

"Hush! Miss Zhao'er, I'm Abao. Don't make any noise."

After looking around anxiously, Abao pulled off his black face scarf with one hand, signaling Zhao'er not to say anything.

When Zhao'er found out that the person coming was Abao, he nodded quickly like a chick pecking at food, and the fear in his eyes gradually dissipated.

Soon, Po let go, looking embarrassed.

"You damn Po! You scared me to death just now!"

The first thing Zhao'er said when she was able to speak was to complain that Abao was using too much force and almost suffocated her to death.

Po raised his hand and scratched his head, then smiled sheepishly:

"Isn't it because they are worried that you will make it public and alarm the dog emperor?"

After saying that, Abao quickly turned his gaze towards the dimly lit room, looking extremely uncomfortable.

"Forget it! I'm in a good mood today, so I won't bother with you!

By the way, what are you doing here so late at night? Have you found our young lady? "

Zhao'er gently pushed Abao, and finally remembered Du Qingwan. He stared at him intently, his face full of anticipation.

A Bao nodded gently: "Don't worry, the queen is now with the king, she is safe!"

"That's good! Oh, no, what are you doing here?

Shouldn't you...stay by the side of the King and our young lady, and protect their safety?"

Hearing that Du Qingwan had returned safely to the palace, Zhao'er's tense nerves relaxed a lot, but he was immediately puzzled again.

She really couldn't understand that A Bao's duty was to protect the safety of Wanyan Hongze and Du Qingwan.

It seems a little abnormal for him to appear here at this time, doesn't it?

"The king asked me to save you. Hehe..."

A Bao smiled foolishly and embarrassedly, not daring to look up at Zhao'er, his heart pounding wildly.

Zhao'er heard this and nodded, as if he understood it but not quite.

"Why don't you leave now? Are you waiting to be discovered by the Dog Emperor?"

Seeing that Abao was still standing there stupidly, Zhao'er took two steps and immediately stepped back, glaring at him unhappily.

Seeing this, Abao quickly followed her and left together.

"Zhao'er, that damn girl, why did it take you so long to get some firewood? Did you deserve a beating? I'll go check it out!"

Inside the house, the two waited for a long time, and the firewood was almost burned out, but Zhao'er still didn't come back. Eunuch Liu suddenly became anxious.

He staggered to his feet, cursing, and prepared to go out and scold Zhao'er.

"Yeah, is there anything wrong?"

Zhu Yunhao only reacted now and hurriedly stood up.

Eunuch Liu was stunned for three seconds, and subconsciously reached out to protect Zhu Yunhao behind him, feeling very nervous.

"Your Majesty, please stay here and don't move. I will go out and take a look first.

Later, no matter what happens outside, don't come out, and remember to find a chance to escape from here."

Zhu Yunhao was about to push Eunuch Liu away and go out to take a look, but he was pushed back forcefully.

Worried that Zhu Yunhao would run around, Eunuch Liu repeatedly told him not to move.

"Yeah. You better pay attention."

Zhu Yunhao had no other choice but to nod and agree.

Soon, Eunuch Liu tiptoed out.

But after just a moment, he ran back panting, with a look of extreme panic on his face.

"What's wrong? Where's Zhao'er?"

Seeing that only Eunuch Liu came back, Zhu Yunhao suddenly became anxious. He looked out the door for a long time before asking Eunuch Liu.

Eunuch Liu had just searched the courtyard carefully several times, but could not find Zhao'er's whereabouts, so he had to tell the truth:

"Zhao'er may have escaped."

"Escape? The Queen was kidnapped by Jiang Beiheng. Where can she, a maidservant, escape to?

Even if she returns to Tianze Palace, Wanyan Hongze will not let her go. Isn't she seeking her own death?"

As soon as Eunuch Liu finished speaking, Zhu Yunhao immediately took over the conversation.

He absolutely didn't believe that Zhao'er would return to the palace.
