The princess ran away again

——I have traveled south, and I will not come soon.

When Chu Zhao received this letter, his hanging heart relaxed a little.

Since she was made the crown prince by the empress, she followed the court to discuss matters, and countless papers flew into the mansion. How could she be as comfortable as when she was at her own home?Fortunately, the courtiers in the Southern Dynasties were simpler than I imagined, and most of them were bookish. As long as they showed some skills and broke their arrogance, they could be convinced.The monarch and his ministers are harmonious, and there is basically no struggle between the clans. No wonder Ning State's surprise attack on Jin State was still ineffective when the Empress was seriously ill.As for the civil strife, I'm afraid it deliberately magnified the crown prince's dispute between the clans, right?

Even if Zhaoyang abandoned her identity, she was still the princess of Ning State, and it was extremely difficult to enter the capital of Jin State.Chu Zhao didn't think that this matter could be hidden from the empress, so he found an opportunity to enter the palace to meet the empress and explain everything.

"What if one day Princess Zhaoyang's identity is found out, and Emperor Ningguo comes to ask for someone from our court? Peace between the two countries is not easy. If she is allowed to enter the capital, it may be inappropriate."

Chu Zhao was a little disappointed when he heard the words, but the empress's consideration was also somewhat reasonable.She thought for a moment, then responded lightly: "There is another way, and that is to let me go."

She thought that Chu Zhao, who had been in the imperial court for a while, had given up her thoughts of leaving, but she didn't expect that at this time, the throne would still be nothing in her eyes.The empress was startled, and then laughed dumbly.After a long time, he sighed and said, "You have exactly the same temperament as your mother." When the heir planned to elope with the generals of the enemy country, he gave up the throne that was at his fingertips, and so does her child now.Is love really more important than country? "That's all, let you go." The empress waved her hand.She compromised when facing the eldest sister before, but now she looks at the child who looks exactly like the elder sister, and she is also hard-hearted.

Chu Zhao, who had obtained the permission of the Empress, waited wholeheartedly for Ning Yuyao's news to come again, even ignoring the revision of the notes.Unexpectedly, there was no further movement after this letter was passed on, and even Ning Yuyao's whereabouts were lost from her father and brother.Is something wrong?Thinking of this possibility, Chu Zhao wished he could put on his wings and fly to Ning Yuyao's side.

At night, Chu Zhao had a nightmare.In the dream, Zhaoyang was haggard, with blood stains all over his white clothes.

After waking up, Chu Zhao no longer cared about the empress's ban, and hurriedly wanted to go out of the city to find someone.

The alley in the dark was extremely secluded, and by coincidence, Chu Zhao just went out and bumped into a sneaky person.The man bumped into her suddenly, his brows were full of horror, he covered the letter paper in his sleeve, he lowered his head and walked more quickly into the darkness, that direction was the princess mansion.Chu Zhao pondered for a moment, then suddenly knocked the man unconscious, and found a letter from his arms!After reading it, I was so angry that my teeth itch, how could there be no letter from Zhaoyang!It was clearly intercepted by someone with a heart.Now Zhaoyang's whereabouts are under their control!After thinking for a while, Chu Zhao stuffed the letter back into the man's sleeve, and temporarily gave up his plan to leave the mansion.He woke up his cronies and ordered him to monitor every move of the princess' mansion, and the next day he entered the palace again to ask the empress for troops.

"I know you don't want to take over the throne, but have you thought about it? How can you protect the person you want to protect when you have no power?"

The empress was silent for a long time, and answered Chu Zhao's request, but left another sentence.

Chu Zhao is silent, is a life as free as clouds and wild cranes after all a luxury?If you want to protect Zhaoyang, you must ascend to the supreme position of the Son of Heaven, right?

"Princess, this is about to approach the imperial capital of the Jin Kingdom. Is it really all right?" After knowing Chu Zhao's identity, Qingyi's face was in disbelief. Seeing that she was about to reach her destination, she was still full of doubts.She was afraid that as soon as the group entered the city, they would be arrested as spies of the Jin State.

"Don't worry." Ning Yuyao comforted in a low voice.

"But princess, you keep sending letters, but you don't reply with a single word, and you don't even have someone to respond to. Is Chu Zhao really reliable?" Qingyi's heart is full of injustice.After sending the letter, they would stay at a certain place agreed in their hearts for a few days, waiting for Chu Zhao's people to come to the door, but who knew that there was no movement at all.It seems to have completely disappeared from the world.Qingyi didn't know that her master had abandoned his glory and wealth and left his hometown for her sake, and he didn't know if it was worth it in the end.

"I heard that there are many queens in Jin's palace, will Chu Zhao also—"

"Qingyi." Ning Yuyao showed a sullen look on her face, she gave Qingyi a look, and motioned her to shut up.

After the master and servant rested enough under the tree, they set off again.But before he walked a few steps, he suddenly heard a rustling sound, and a group of armored guards with swords and halberds appeared in front of him.Ge Chunsheng drew his sword and stood in front of Ning Yuyao, watching the group of armored soldiers with cold eyes.

This is the guard of the state of Jin.

Ning Yuyao's heart skipped a beat. Chu Zhao never replied. Could it be because he was framed and lost his freedom after returning to the state of Jin?The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this matter was very possible, and Ning Yuyao began to secretly laugh at the naivety of herself and Chu Zhao.The situation is treacherous, how can there be such an easy thing in this world?Even if the Queen of Jin intends to let Chu Zhao succeed her, what about the clan and courtiers?

"I didn't expect Princess Zhaoyang, who was rumored to be dead, to appear outside the capital of our Jin Kingdom." A presumptuous laugh came from behind the crowd, and the armored soldiers immediately moved out of the way.I saw the enchanting woman in red walking slowly.

Xie Qiluo!Princess of Jin!Ning Yuyao's eyes suddenly sank, and she looked at Xie Qiluo with more disdain and contempt.

Xie Qiluo pursed her lips, smiling alluringly and presumptuously: "Princess Zhaoyang, don't you wonder why I appear? Are you not curious why my whereabouts are leaked?"

"Could it be Chu Zhao?" Qingyi covered her lips and exclaimed.

"You're so smart." Xie Qiluo glanced at Qingyi, and said with a coquettish smile, "The Empress has long known that your Princess Zhaoyang is coming, and your beloved sacrificed you for the throne. Ningguo owes me a lot to Jinguo , how dare you come here? Everyone in Ningguo has already killed Princess Zhaoyang, which saved me a lot of trouble. Kill you quietly, no one will know."

This demon girl has repeated her tricks again, is she trying to sow discord?Ning Yuyao's eyes dimmed and she didn't respond.

Seeing that Ning Yuyao remained calm, Xie Qiluo soon couldn't maintain the smile on her face.There was a bit of resentment in her eyes, she gritted her teeth and wished she could swallow Ning Yuyao in one gulp.She sneered, "Aren't you sad? Ji Zhao gave you up for the throne."

Ning Yuyao said calmly, "I don't know what enmity is there between you and me?"

Xie Qiluo laughed sadly a few times, and replied: "Biyunzong was destroyed in your hands, shouldn't I hate it?" She was at ease outside, but because of the Biyunzong, she could only be trapped in Beijing by her father, even There is an extra inexplicable marriage!Feeling aggrieved, she hated Ji Zhao and Ning Yuyao!But she couldn't move the prince of Jin, but if Ning Yuyao was removed, it would be worse than death for her, right?

Ning Yuyao said solemnly: "You are to blame for this."

Xie Qiluo squinted her eyes and said with a cold smile: "Your fate today is your own fault!" As he spoke, he waved his hand and squeezed out the word "kill" from between his teeth.She looked at Ning Yuyao coldly, as if to say, no one will rescue you this time, right?Ge Chunsheng was brave, but in the end he was outnumbered. In the blink of an eye, the master and servant were forced to retreat to a big tree.The encirclement kept shrinking, and the shining knife and halberd seemed to be poking his face in the next moment.

Suddenly, there was a sound of "snapping", and Xie Qiluo was tightly locked by the cold arrow that pierced through the air.

After realizing the strangeness, Xie Qiluo drew his sword to block the cold arrow, but in the next moment, several arrows were fired at once, blocking her way of life and not giving her any chance to breathe.

After the cold arrow was fired, there was a shout, and guards with the same decoration as this group of armored soldiers surrounded them tightly, and a young general ordered them to put down their weapons.Although Jia Bing was the guard of the princess's mansion, he also listened to the transfer of a higher-level general, hesitated for a moment, and then put down his weapon.

Xie Qiluo was annoyed, and scolded coquettishly, the sword light rolled and scattered like snowflakes.

But the sharp arrows were even more ruthless, and in the blink of an eye, one of them landed on her shoulder.

Xie Qiluo covered the wound, squinted and looked forward.

Chu Zhao, who was dressed in a black and gold outfit, had a condensed expression as he rode on a white horse with a bow and arrow.

"It's her!" Qingyi covered her lips and let out a low cry.

Ning Yuyao also saw the heroic Chu Zhao outside the crowd, with a slight warmth on her face, she lowered her eyes and smiled and said, "Yes, she is here." Shui finally saw what she wanted to see.Her sassy demeanor and high spirits are blurred and clear in my mind.Looking at the person who got off the horse and came quickly, Ning Yuyao smiled, her eyes filled with tears again, she held Chu Zhao's strong hand, and murmured: "I said I would come. "

"Yes!" Chu Zhao replied loudly, hugging Ning Yuyao in his arms.She still hated herself a little bit, if she had gone out to find someone earlier, if she had paid attention to her movements earlier, wouldn't she be in today's danger?Chu Zhao thinks that she is not a narrow-minded person, but she can't be without resentment or hatred towards Xie Qiluo!His eyes turned cold, and he shouted: "Arrest him!" The guards immediately started to move.

"You are more brilliant than I imagined." Ning Yuyao stretched out her hand to caress Chu Zhao's face, she became haggard a lot, is it because of herself?

"Do you just want to say this to me?" Chu Zhao held Ning Yuyao's hand and smiled lightly.

"Of course not." Ning Yuyao stared at Chu Zhao, how could she say a thousand words in an instant?

At the beginning, the clamor of Baiyulou was like a world away, and they swore to speak ill of each other, but who knew it would end like this?

Fortunately, I got her hand, and I have no regrets in this life.
