The princess ran away again

The moonlight melted, and the two figures walked on the street, far away from all kinds of hustle and bustle, appearing to be quite quiet.Ning Yuyao had infinite feelings hidden in her heart, and she didn't know how to speak.It was a rare thought to strike up a conversation, but it was dispelled when he turned his head and saw the quiet face.A soft sigh dissipated in the wind, Ning Yuyao stopped suddenly, she stretched out her right hand as if to catch the watery moonlight.

"What's the matter?" Sensing the movement of the person beside him, Chu Zhao also stopped, turned around and asked with concern.

"It's nothing." Ning Yuyao felt disappointed.Although the people in the flower market dispersed, the remaining flowers still spread a faint fragrance in the night sky.The fallen flowers blown by the wind fluttered in mid-air, and finally landed gently in the open palm, leaving a faint trace of fragrance.

Chu Zhao frowned, took Ning Yuyao's hand, and dropped the petal into her palm. "You have something on your mind." Her tone was somewhat determined.

Ning Yuyao smiled lightly, met Chu Zhao's eyes, and asked in a low voice: "I was wondering, would things be different if I hadn't left the palace?" Married into the general's mansion on the spot, and became a pair of "wife and wife" with Chu Zhao.And after becoming a "son-in-law", will Chu Zhao continue to hang out with those cronies, or break through the eyes of the world again, and thus enter the court to serve as an errand?What will happen to her relationship with the King of Light?Will the General's Mansion show an appearance of being close to the East Palace?

Chu Zhao didn't have Ning Yuyao's chaotic thoughts, she didn't think deeply about the meaning of this sentence at all, she just responded with a light smile: "Of course it will be different, different places have different scenes, and in front of you—" After a pause, she said again, "There will be different people in front of me." If there was no Huashan Festival, how could she have such a leisurely time strolling among the flowers under the moon?I'm afraid it's a night dream that Zhou Gong will go.

Ning Yuyao nodded and smiled, "Yes." Putting aside the deep thoughts in her heart for the time being, she brushed away Chu Zhao's hand and said softly, "Let's go back to the inn." The whole city of Huai'an fell into a commotion In the sweet dream, where is the traveler who tosses and turns?

In the room where the candles were extinguished, only the frosty moonlight remained.

Ning Yuyao heard the sound of shallow breathing from one side, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her lips.In sleepless nights, she didn't want to toss and turn, for fear of disturbing the dreams of the people around her.A faint sigh poured out from the corner of his lips, mixed with a bit of sadness and a bit of sweetness.She blinked, propped herself up gently, looked at Chu Zhao's peaceful sleeping face, and let her thoughts roam the sky.The resentment had already dissipated, maybe the move to leave the palace was just a willful and stubborn resistance, which had nothing to do with her true wish, because the result was never what she really cared about. "Is it really so untouchable?" She whispered, staring at Chu Zhao's quiet face, and then aroused a touch of self-mockery, "No matter what you say, you've made it difficult for me." Among the inexplicable emotions, perhaps caused by a momentary impulse, Ning Yuyao leaned over and left a light kiss on Chu Zhao's lips.When she regained her mind, she suddenly lay down and pulled the brocade quilt to hide her sudden red face.Pressing her right hand on her heart, she also wanted to cover up her beating heartbeat like a drum.

Ning Yuyao, who was hiding in the quilt, didn't know it, she thought that the sleeping person slowly opened those clear eyes at this moment, with complicated emotions floating around.

·

The aftertaste of the Huashan Festival lasted for many days, but the people walking on the street were not all happy.The gangsters of the Green Cloud Sect pressed each other again, and the peddler was panicked for a while, and reluctantly took out the hard-earned money in his pocket.Although Chu Zhao and Ning Yuyao had an opportunity, they were unable to expel all the villains. Once they left, the bullying evil species invaded again.

"Didn't you tell Li Mengyang to investigate? What's the matter?" Ning Yuyao's brows were filled with anger. She originally wanted to go to the government office, but was stopped by Chu Zhao.I didn't realize it until I saw the officials drinking and having fun with the rent collectors.No wonder they couldn't defeat the Green Cloud Sect. It turned out that they were colluding together, and they didn't know how much oil and water they shared in private. "Those people are too hateful!"

Chu Zhao sighed and whispered, "Wait patiently for a while."

Ning Yuyao raised her eyebrows and asked, "When will I wait?"

Chu Zhao pursed his lips and did not answer. Just as the two were arguing, there was another brisk laughter.Xie Qiluo appeared in front of the two of them again like a lingering ghost. "We meet again, why don't we have a drink together? Mr. Ji?" Afraid that Chu Zhao and Ning Yuyao would refuse again, Xie Qiluo licked his lips and said with a chuckle, "I know a thing or two about Biyunzong. The person who chased and killed me on the lake is also inseparable from the Green Cloud Sect."

When Ning Yuyao heard Xie Qiluo's invitation, her first thought was to refuse directly, but she just heard her mention the Biyun Sect that was bothering her.Pushing Chu Zhao's arm, she nodded slightly and said, "Alright."

How did Xie Qiluo know that she was upset about Biyunzong?Could it be that she followed and even investigated herself all the way?If so, has Zhaoyang's identity been leaked?Chu Zhao's heart was heavy and he didn't want to communicate with Xie Qiluo, but Ning Yuyao had already pushed her forward.Well, let's see what tricks she has.Chu Zhao thought to himself, the emotions on his face subsided, and his indifferent expression was like a clear lake in autumn without waves.

In the small pavilion of the restaurant, Xie Qiluo had already prepared a banquet.She waved off the two maids who had been following behind her all the time, poured a glass of wine as soon as she sat down, smiled at Chu Zhaoyingly and said, "This glass of wine is a toast to your life-saving grace. There is such a great kindness. If there is a need in the future, please help me." The woman's place will definitely be ruined, and she will never hesitate to die."

Chu Zhao flicked his sleeves, and replied flatly, "Miss Xie, you are kind."

Turning her eyes, Xie Qiluo's lips curled up into a sly smile, she held up her wine glass, pretending to be sad and said: "Young master, why don't you drink, does it mean that you don't believe the little girl's words?"

"This—" Chu Zhao frowned, poured a glass of wine after a while, touched Xie Qiluo lightly, and drank it down with his head raised.The agarwood in the room curled up, and the mellow wine smell was blown away by the wind, leaving only a trace of still intoxicating light fragrance.Chu Zhao unconsciously knocked on the table with her fingers, and she asked, "You said you know about the Biyun Sect?"

"Yes." Xie Qiluo nodded, pursed her lips and said with a smile, "My lord, let's have some food and drink first, and then we'll talk about the Biyunzong after we've enjoyed ourselves." Then, he stretched out his chopsticks and picked up a piece of fat but not greasy meat. Put the meat into Chu Zhao's bowl.

"She doesn't eat meat." Ning Yuyao's cold voice rang out, blocking Xie Qiluo's chopsticks, while she picked up a lot of vegetables and put them into Chu Zhao's bowl, and said coldly to her Said, "Eat."

"Aside from monks and Taoists, is there anyone who doesn't love delicacies from mountains and seas? Do you only like vegetarian food with clear soup and little water?" Xie Qiluo raised her eyebrows, her tone full of surprise.After a long while, he laughed again, "Forget it, the little girl will not make her own way to prepare vegetables for the young master." As he spoke, he glanced at Ning Yuyao provocatively.

Chu Zhao frowned, and said lightly, "Let's talk about the Biyun Sect." If Xie Qiluo hadn't said that she knew about the Biyun Sect, she definitely wouldn't have attended this banquet.

"Green Cloud Sect..." Speaking of these three words, Xie Qiluo's face became a little sad, as if immersed in memories.She intentionally stimulated the appetite of Chu and Zhao, and seeing a little bit of impatience on their faces, she continued, "It's just a small Jianghu sect with certain influence in Huai'an. I heard that people in the government are Have contacts with them. The people in Huai’an are protected by the Jade Cloud Sect, and the people in the city also donate a little something as a reward. There have never been any dire and vicious things, but—"

Ning Yuyao stared at Xie Qiluo tightly, and asked, "But what?"

Xie Qiluo chuckled lightly and said: "It's nothing, just go to the Jade Cloud Sect and you'll know?"

Chu Zhao asked: "Do you have a way to lead us into the Jade Cloud Sect?"

"Yes." Xie Qiluo nodded and said, "It's just you—"

Chu Zhao stroked his forehead, frowned and hummed softly, "Huh?"

The smile on Xie Qiluo's face became stronger, and she said with a smile: "I'm afraid you don't want to?" After her words fell, Chu Zhao suddenly realized that his power had been dissipated, and his limbs were limp and unable to lift his strength. The figure of the person shaking, turned into three or four!She was on guard against Xie Qiluo, as long as she didn't touch the vegetables she didn't touch, she still fell into the trap. After all, she was inexperienced in the world! "You—" Hearing Xie Qiluo's smile, Chu Zhao gritted his teeth with hatred.Turning her eyes to look at Ning Yuyao's condition, she blurted out the word "Zhao" before another burst of dizziness hit her, and finally she couldn't hold on anymore and fell down on the table.

Xie Qiluo clapped her hands, and a maid guarding the door immediately entered the pavilion. "Take Ji Zhao away." Xie Qiluo ordered.

"What about the other one?" the maid asked in a low voice.

"Stay here." Xie Qiluo obviously had no interest in Ning Yuyao.After thinking for a while, she asked again, "Did you tell Xiao Liu to let her go back to the sect directly?" This was called Xiao Liu, and she was also one of Xie Qiluo's attendants. their people.

"Informed." The pink-clothed maid nodded, glanced at the drowsy man, with a hint of worry hidden between her brows and eyes, but she still didn't say anything, and just obeyed the master's order to take him away.

"Princess, princess!" Ning Yuyao was woken up by someone, and when she woke up, she saw cold scraps on the table, and Chu Zhao had long since disappeared.Patting her slightly heavy head, she turned around and saw a strange face, not Li Mengyang. "You—" Ning Yuyao suddenly became alert.

"My subordinate, Bian Jingming." The man immediately introduced himself.

One of the dark guards sent by the emperor to protect him.

Ning Yuyao breathed a sigh of relief, but the next moment her heart rose again, and she asked anxiously, "Where's Chu Zhao?"
