The princess ran away again

In the dark night, the strong wind howled and raged.

Chu Zhaoduan sat in the study, his expression as indifferent as the snow outside the house.

Someone in the prince's mansion sent a message, saying that Princess Zhaoyang stayed at the mansion.Chu Zhao just twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard the words, showing a smile uglier than crying.The elder brother committed suicide, but the body was not sent back for a long time, so he sent someone to collect it, and what he heard was more excuses.Chu Zhao sighed in her heart, her eyes flickered, and after a while, she looked at the unattended incense burner that had already been extinguished.

Prince what does this mean?

The candlelight was blown into a line by the wind that penetrated the gap between the door and the window, and a thin figure was projected on the door.Chu Zhao tidied up the things on the table slowly, and after a long time, he said slowly, "Come out." As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a figure floating down from the roof beam.After removing the mask, there was another strange face. "From Jin?" Chu Zhao asked again.

The man hesitated for a moment, then cupped his hands towards Chu Zhao and said, "Please young master follow us back!"

The people sent by the state of Jin came one after another, but what kind of disaster will it bring this time?Chu Zhao hooked his lips, and there was a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth.She asked: "Whose soldiers and horses did they bring this time? And what kind of situation will our Chu Mansion fall into?" Would the Jin people who were arrested in Beijing not know that they were being watched by the prince's people? ?As soon as the confession was forced, they were recruited, and rumors spread all over the border. Didn't they deliberately drive their Chu family into a desperate situation?For them, the Jin State, welcoming back their prince and grandson, and taking away a general of Ning State, this is the best of both worlds!

The man replied: "Now Prince Ning has become suspicious of you, the eldest son was forced to die, this is no longer a suitable place to stay for a long time. Please young master go back with his subordinates."

Chu Zhao sneered and said, "I was born in Ning State and grew up in Ning State. Even if the blood of the Jin State royal family flows in my blood, so what? If you still have the life to go back, tell your master, if you don't want the Jin State to be destroyed In my hands, just let go of your thoughts, even if I, Chu Zhao, die, I will not return to the Jin Kingdom and take over the throne from the person who drove my Chu family to a desperate situation."

"This—" The man in black's face darkened, and he was about to draw a long sword in his hand, but when he met Chu Zhao's cold eyes, his movements froze.

"Let's go." Chu Zhao stood up, put his hands behind his back, with an indifferent expression.

The man in black knew that he would not be able to take Chu Zhao down for a while, and might even alarm the people in Ningguo.Although the higher-ups said they didn't care about the fate of the other members of the Chu family, they named this one not to receive the slightest damage.After weighing again and again, the man in black broke out through the window, leaving only a gust of cold wind mixed with snow, falling on Chu Zhao's face.

sleepless nights.

The servant sent a letter, and Princess Zhaoyang arrived, but Chu Zhao just mumbled his lips, but didn't say a word in the end.She was stuck on the barren ground like a piece of dead wood, and her eyes full of tiredness fell on a tree of red plums covered with snow outside the window.In previous winters, I was interested in finding plum blossoms through the snow, but now?Ya who didn't see the wind and snow, but only a bone-chilling chill.

"Don't you ask me what I talked about with Brother Huang?" Ning Yuyao, who was dressed in a fiery red fox fur, was the only warm color in the snow. She was leaning against the door with a hand stove.Fengxue seemed to be blocked by her thin body.

Chu Zhao rolled his eyes and asked in a low voice, "Where is my elder brother's body?"

The exhausted expression that fell into her eyes turned into sharp needles that pierced people's hearts, and Ning Yuyao felt sore in her heart. She walked quickly to Chu Zhao, and placed her cold hands in her arms.When her sour voice sounded again, Ning Yuyao breathed out and said, "If you don't see a dead body, can't you have a glimmer of hope?"

"I'm afraid that hope will be followed by despair again." Chu Zhao let out a sigh, and she raised her eyes to look at Ning Yuyao, tears gradually accumulated in her eyes.As if she was afraid that she would cry in front of Ning Yuyao, she wrapped her arms around the waist of the visitor and buried her head in her arms.The tears overflowing from his eyes gradually wet his clothes, Chu Zhao forced himself to suppress his sobs, but finally found that it was all in vain.

Seeing this person become like this, Ning Yuyao felt even more painful.Her hand stroked Chu Zhao's back gently. "What my brother promised before will definitely come true. Besides, is elder brother such a fragile person?" Ning Yuyao whispered.

After a long time, Chu Zhao raised his head, wiped his bloodshot eyes, and replied, "I see."

Ning Yuyao sighed softly, and whispered, "It's something else that worries us even more."

"what?"

"Brother Huang seems to know what's going on between us." Ning Yuyao smiled wryly for a while, she shouldn't have told Chu Zhao about this troublesome thing, but this is the only way they have to go, they always need to know, Is not it? "Brother Huang left me in the prince's mansion, and from time to time he talked about my childhood thoughts about the future Ruyi Langjun, and expressed dissatisfaction with the national teacher... Actually, I am in a mess now, Chu Zhao, Chu Zhao, we will be together in the future. What should I do? If, if—" Ning Yuyao sighed, but she couldn't continue speaking anyway.

There was a trace of doubt in Chu Zhao's eyes, and he repeated in a low voice: "What if?"

What if there is something to follow?Ning Yuyao smiled, hiding the desolation in her eyes.She lowered her head and kissed Chu Zhao's brow, her red lips gradually slid down, and the hand on her back held that fragile and haggard face.Temporarily moved, it is difficult to contain my own thoughts.Chu Zhao was still in a daze, but Ning Yuyao was no longer satisfied with the light kiss like a superficial kiss.

"Zhaoyang, you—"

"Don't talk." Ning Yuyao put her fingers against Chu Zhao's lips. She sat on Chu Zhao's lap, her burning eyes seemed to be the last flame of this bitter winter.

The curtain gradually fell, isolating the coldness and frost outside.The house is full of spring, but outside the window, plum blossoms and snow fall, falling silently.

When Chu Zhao woke up, it was already afternoon.Ning Yuyao curled up and nestled in her arms, her brows were still somewhat coquettish, like a spring plum blossoming in the warm spring breeze.The fingers rested on the slender waist, and the skin of the tentacles was like a smooth brocade, which made it hard to put it down.Chu Zhao's eyes dimmed, and a moment later, a trace of heavy worry flashed across his brows and eyes, dispelling the charm that was still lingering in his heart not long ago.

"What are you thinking?" Ning Yuyao opened her eyes at some point, staring at Chu Zhao without blinking.She raised the strands of hair that hung down her shoulders, and she nestled lazily, not wanting to move.This unprecedented experience made her physically and mentally comfortable, as if she was in a hot spring.

Chu Zhao hid a sigh in her heart, and she whispered, "Are you hungry?"

Ning Yuyao chuckled, rolled her eyes, and shook her head lazily.

Chu Zhao snorted softly, and tightened his hand holding Ning Yuyao again.The violent eyelids seemed to indicate that something bad was about to happen.The body is like a light boat, exiled in the confused fog, unable to find a safe ferry to rely on.

After pawing Chu Zhao's hand, Ning Yuyao knew that what she was about to say would stab Chu Zhao's heart like a sharp knife, but she still didn't stop.Pressing questions under such circumstances made her seem like an extremely cruel person. "What if Brother Huang really forced your elder brother to commit suicide? Between you and me—"

Chu Zhao's heart trembled, and he rubbed Ning Yuyao's waist with his fingertips. There was no anger or madness on her face, only peace. "You and I both made choices, didn't we?" In a sense, Princess Zhaoyang is active and crazy, but why isn't she herself?Before everything was sorted out, they did such romantic affairs. Isn't this the answer from the bottom of their hearts?

Ning Yuyao smiled, her eyes flickered, her demeanor was full.She lay on Chu Zhao's chest, closing her eyes as if she was about to fall into that sweet dream again, but after a while, the muffled voice sounded again, and she said softly: "You are the emperor of the Jin Dynasty. Things can't be changed, the Chu family is devoted to Ningguo, but this is still easy to be criticized by others. If my elder brother can't tolerate the Chu family, or if you have to choose between the Chu family and me, what will you do?"

The world only thinks that they are a pair of Jinlan sisters who have no name as wives and wives, so naturally they discuss for a while and let it go.But if members of the royal family knew about their affair, they would definitely block it.The prince's attitude obviously knows something, can he tolerate this matter?Thinking of what might happen in the future, Chu Zhao smiled wryly and said, "What if my Chu family gives up all power and leaves the capital?"

Ning Yuyao calmly said: "You can leave, but Brother Huang will not let me go with you. He will let you choose the Chu family or me. Of course, in the end, he must do everything possible to force you to give up on me. You and I Let go of the marriage between them, and I will definitely choose a son-in-law for me when the time comes."

Thinking of this possibility, Chu Zhao felt that his throat seemed to be grabbed by a pair of giant hands.She shook her head vigorously and replied, "No!"

"This matter is beyond your control." Ning Yuyao's tone became even more ruthless, and she continued, "I can probably guess what the emperor wants to do. Given the current situation of your Chu family, it is true that you stand above the court. Dangerous. When the time comes, you only need to protect the safety of your Chu family, as for me, I have my own way to escape."

"But—" Abandoning the Chu family, Chu Zhao couldn't do it, but pushing Ning Yuyao away, Chu Zhao couldn't do it either.

Ning Yuyao said calmly: "Don't worry, I won't be sad because of your choice, it doesn't mean I give up on you. Do you remember what I said? My future doesn't depend on you Chu Zhao Yes, but I chose and walked out on my own. I want you Chu Zhao, and I will not let the entire General's Mansion be in danger because of our personal relationship. Otherwise, in the end, there will be something in our hearts Feeling guilty, afraid that there is no future to speak of.”

"You have to remember what I said today!"
