princess come to my arms

Slowly pushing away the closed stone slab, Li Yuqi cast his gaze out.

This is an abandoned firewood house with rotting wood piled on top of the stone slabs.In order to reduce the movement, Li Yuqi got out his hand, picked up the wood covering the stone cover with his hand, and gently put it aside.Then he got out of the body, took Gu Zixuan's hand, and led her out.

"It should have been the eunuch Zeng Qing who was talking with Zheng Wang. These two are treacherous people, working hand in hand, we need to be careful." Li Yuqi said while carefully patting the dust off Gu Zixuan's body.

"Yes." Gu Zixuan replied.

At night, the Donglin Pavilion is lit, and the light penetrates from the window, and things can be seen vaguely.The two looked for clues based on the light.

The secret path is hidden in the firewood room of Donglin Pavilion. Anyone who wants to sneak out must pass through here.

The two searched for a long time, but found nothing. Suddenly there were some noises outside the door, and Li Yuqi became alert.

"What's the matter with you two? Why did you leave the team without authorization! The lord is going to withdraw the troops, return to the team quickly!" It seemed that a leader was reprimanding two soldiers who did not obey orders.Those three people were not far from the woodshed, so the conversation came over.Li Yuqi stretched his ears and listened quietly.

But suddenly, the sound outside the door stopped, and the sound of a body hitting the floor entered Li Yuqi's ears.

Something must have happened outside the door!

Li Yuqi poked through the window paper on the door with his fingers, and looked out from the hole.Gu Zixuan quietly came to her side, and imitated her movements to spy on everything outside the window.

In the silent garden, two soldiers, one tall and one short, were standing around something on the ground, at a loss.Obviously, the person lying on the ground is the person who reprimanded them just now.Judging from the face of the leader, he should just be stunned.But why did they stun him?

besides?Who are these two little soldiers?Why stun their leader?Li Yuqi glanced at the faces of those two people, with a big question mark in his heart.

"What should we do now?" One of the soldiers said, the voice was a little weird.

It was clearly a man's rough face, and the words that came out were indeed shrill.The strange thing is that this voice sounds familiar to Li Yuqi!

The other soldier looked around for a week with his hands on his hips, then turned his gaze to the woodshed not far away, and said softly: "There is a woodshed over there. Let's move him in first, hide him, and then find a way to escape."

For some reason, this voice is also extremely familiar, but Li Yuqi is very puzzled when he has no impression of the faces of the two of them.

Gu Zixuan was also watching, but she saw something tricky.The two little soldiers were small in stature but had big armor, which obviously didn't fit them well.His walking posture was a little strange, he didn't look like a soldier at all, coupled with the extremely thin voice, it must be a fake.

What are their real identities?

Two figures suddenly appeared in Gu Zixuan's mind.

Before he had time to compare them carefully, Gu Zixuan was dragged to a hidden corner by the king. "They're coming, we're going to hide."

The two hid in a narrow cabinet, with a gap slightly exposed, observing the situation outside.

Gu Zixuan was held in Li Yuqi's arms, even if the place was cramped and protected by the king, he didn't feel uncomfortable.She thought about it carefully, and after confirming the thoughts in her heart, she moved her body, put her hands around Zun Wang's neck, brought her lips to her ear, and whispered the conjecture in her heart.

"It's them?" Li Yuqi was extremely surprised, and turned his gaze to the door of the chaifang, verifying Gu Ziqi's conjecture.

Those two opened the door lightly, and slowly moved the fainted leader in, and placed it inside the woodshed.

"It's a bit similar." Li Yuqi agreed after seeing the actions of the two soldiers.

"Who's there?" Gu Ziyou heard the voice in the dark of the woodshed, turned his head suddenly, then drew out his sword, and quickly protected Li Weixi behind him.

"Ziyou, it's us." Li Yuqi pushed open the door of the cabinet and walked slowly.

"You! You are..." The face of the person opposite was covered with a black veil, and his face could not be discerned at all, but the voice was clearly...

"You guys are too bold to come in with a disguise." Another man in black also stood up and said to the two people in front of him.

"My lord, sister, is it you?" Gu Ziyou asked in surprise.

"It's us."

Li Weixi was also very surprised: "Emperor brother and sister-in-law? How did you get in?"

"You, you! Why are you so willful and reckless?" Li Yuqi strode forward and came to Li Weixi, posing as a brother with a serious expression, "If you are caught by King Zheng and Zeng Qing, stab him Before going to the holy place, the emperor will definitely be furious. Moreover, King Zheng is cruel and merciless, and he doesn't care about the brother-sister relationship at all. If you hurt you, how many people will you worry about?"

"Yongle knew it was wrong, Yongle was too impatient. However," Li Weixi changed the subject, "Brother Huang's arrow wound has not healed, why are you here? Brother Huang went to danger with an illness, isn't it worrying? ?”

"My lord..." Li Yuqi was speechless and blushed.Gu Zixuan, who was beside her, lowered his eyes secretly.

"Okay, now there are many dangers, this is not the time to blame each other. Let's first think about how to get out of this cold palace. If King Zheng finds that there are fewer people, he will find them soon." When the atmosphere was deadlocked, Gu Ziyou came out to mediate road.

"Come with us, we will take you out." Li Yuqi and Gu Zixuan looked at each other, and led Gu Ziyou and Li Weixi into a secret road.

**

After going down the secret path, the four of them felt a lot more at ease, and the atmosphere eased up.Li Yuqi thought about it carefully, Li Weixi's visit to Lenggong was also for himself, and he shouldn't lose his temper with her.Thinking about it this way, Li Yuqi's brows relaxed a lot.

Li Yuqi walked ahead with Gu Zixuan on his arm, Li Weixi and Gu Ziyou followed behind.Looking at the majestic secret passage underground and the slightly shining night pearl on the wall, he opened his mouth unconsciously.

"This secret way... Brother Huang, what's going on?" Li Weixi asked when the four of them walked down the stairs and came to a spacious place.

Princess Yongle's voice actually came out of a man's face. Li Yuqi shrank his neck, got goosebumps all over his body, and couldn't help frowning and complaining: "Yongle, your face is really ugly. Don't hug me One place, it looks so uncomfortable!"

"Brother Huang, at this critical moment, let's get down to business!" Li Weixi said with feigned anger, punching two fists against the wall.

"Okay, I say."

After the relaxation, the atmosphere became dignified again.

Li Yuqi told the truth about the ins and outs of the Secret Way.It just simplifies the matter of his biological mother Zhang.Li Weixi and Gu Ziyou listened carefully, with heavy hearts.Things are far more complicated than they thought.

"Where is the burned man in black? I want to go and see." After a long silence, Gu Ziyou spoke.

"It's on the right side of the secret path, I'll take you there now."

The four came to the place where the men in black slept, and there was an unpleasant smell in the air.The flames on the man's body had already extinguished by themselves, his whole body was scorched black, his clothes and appearance were all burnt, and he could not be identified at all.

"This is too cruel." Li Weixi walked around the man in black, and couldn't help frowning.I thought to myself: What kind of master would cultivate such a loyal subordinate?

"This clue is broken. The two of us searched in the cold palace for a long time but still haven't found any clue." Gu Ziyou sighed.

"The matter of the secret way can only be done first. Today we have already threatened the snake, and we must not act rashly in the next few days." Gu Zixuan said with a serious expression.

"Ah."

"Ah."

Gu Ziyou and Li Weixi agreed.

"It's almost dawn, we're leaving." Li Yuqi counted the time and urged everyone to leave.

At dawn, the four of them left the secret path and went back to their homes.

**

Nanjing Chengzun Wangfu.

"My lord, let my concubine take a look at your wounds." As soon as he returned to the bedroom, Gu Zixuan wanted to remove the dirty clothes from Zun Wang's body to see the wounds on her body.

"Fortunately, there shouldn't be any serious problems." Li Yuqi said lightly, wrapping his arms around Gu Zixuan's waist.

"The man in black has extremely strong palms, I'm afraid he might pull the arrow wound." Gu Zixuan regretted what happened today, he should not have taken the risk without authorization and nearly killed the two of them.The thoughts in his heart were expressed on his face, Gu Ziqi frowned.

Li Yuqi sat on the edge of the bed, Gu Zixuan took off her night clothes, and then stripped off the inner clothes.

Li Yuqi's skin was exposed to the air, and his eyes were bruised and purple.Gu Zixuan stretched out his hand to stroke her, feeling very distressed.

"It's just a flesh injury, it's okay." Li Yuqi said with a smile.

"Let the concubine see the arrow wound on her back."

Li Yuqi turned around obediently.

"It's okay, it's just some pus." After reading it, Gu Zixuan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Since it's all right, princess, don't be unhappy." Li Yuqi quickly hugged Gu Zixuan in his arms.

"Has the prince ever... blamed the concubine?" I have been lying to the prince all this time, and Li Yuqi should be angry.

"I was puzzled, but never blamed. The king knows that the princess is doing it for my own good." Li Yuqi stretched out his hand to caress Gu Zixuan's delicate cheeks, rubbing them gently with his fingertips.

"How did the lord find out that the concubine was adding medicine to the medicinal meal?"

"It's just a coincidence. When I think about the past today, I just feel a little strange. Why did the memory disappear after taking the medicinal diet? I wondered whether it was my own body problem or the medicinal diet, so I wanted to verify it. Princess, I will wait for you in the future." You can't hide anything from me, do you know how anxious I am when I find out that you are in danger?" Li Yuqi said earnestly.

"The concubine knew she was wrong, so she won't do it next time."

"You were injured too, let me see your injury too."

"The concubine is a doctor, so I can take the medicine myself later." Gu Zixuan dodged, his face turned red unconsciously.In the past, she was the one who looked at Li Yuqi's skin, and she was very shy because she had seen her own.

"It's okay to take a look, let me rest assured." Li Yuqi didn't listen to her words, and reached out to untie her clothes.

"Mmm..." Gu Zixuan lowered his eyes, his face was red, and he let Li Yuqi undress his clothes.

"You are weak, and your injury is much more serious than mine." With his clothes open, Gu Zixuan's shoulders were black and blue, Li Yuqi felt distressed, and hurriedly said. "You go to get the medicine and come to me, and I will give you the medicine."

"Okay." Gu Zixuan tied up his clothes and walked away coyly.When he came back, he had two more bottles of potion in his hand, and his face was still glowing red.

"Sit down." Li Yuqi stood up from the edge of the bed, asked Gu Zixuan to sit down, and took the medicine in her hand.

"The medicine for bruises needs to be rubbed vigorously to be effective. The princess should be patient."

"Ah."

Li Yuqi opened the bottle stopper of the medicine, poured the medicine into the palm of his hand, and rubbed his palms together to heat the medicine and the palm.Then put the palm on the wound on Gu Zixuan's shoulder, and began to rub it.

"Hiss—" When the wound first moved, the muscles in Zun Wang's palm felt severe pain, and Gu Ziqi gasped unconsciously.Soon after, when the muscles and bones are fully adapted, the pain will no longer be so painful.

"Is it better now?" Li Yuqi asked.

"It doesn't hurt as much as it did just now. The lord's technique is very good." Gu Zixuan looked at Li Yuqi affectionately with watery eyes, and curled the corners of his mouth.

The rubbing of the palms stopped, and Li Yuqi dipped the potion on his fingers and daubed it carefully.Totally different from the feeling just now, when Li Yuqi's slender fingers slid across his skin, a different feeling rose in Gu Zixuan's heart.A stream of heat smudged along with the fingertips.

Gu Zixuan lowered his eyes, and the blush on his face became more intense.

"The medicine is ready, and it won't be so painful tomorrow." Li Yuqi smiled and put away the medicine.

"Thank you...thank you, my lord..."

"No, in the past, the concubine gave me the medicine, and I never thanked her. In the future, the concubine will not need it either. We are husband and wife, so there is no need to thank me."

Li Yuqi squatted down, took Gu Zixuan's hand on his knee, and spoke seriously.

"Okay." Gu Zixuan nodded.

The two tidied up a little and got on the bed.

"It's going to be bright, and if you don't sleep, there will be a lot of noise in the house." Li Yuqi hugged Gu Ziqi's shoulders and fell on the soft pillow, hugging her tightly with both hands.

"What I saw today is just a dream. Now that we are out of danger, let's just wake up from a dream. Forget about it, don't hide it in your heart. With me in the future, the princess will only be happy, and leave the rest to me. I will definitely investigate the matter to the bottom, so that those who should be punished will get their due retribution."

Under the thin quilt, Li Yuqi clenched his fists.Last time she said similar things in Xiyuan Mountain, but she never had such confidence and firmness.

From tonight onwards, he is no longer that timid and fearful king who can be manipulated by others.He must become extremely strong, stand up from those intrigues, and protect the woman in front of him who is worthy of her love for the rest of his life.

Gu Zixuan looked into Li Yuqi's eyes and read the seriousness and earnestness inside.These seriousness is also mixed with a different majesty and domineering than before.

Suddenly, Gu Zi froze, and the corners of his lips trembled.Isn't such a prince what she longed for day and night?Now, it was finally welcomed by her.

"Hmm!" Gu Zixuan hugged Li Yuqi tightly back, tears welling from the corners of his eyes.

In Li Yuqi's arms, all of Gu Zixuan's uneasiness, fear, worry, and exhaustion disappeared.She relaxed, slowed her breathing, and gradually fell asleep.

Li Yuqi held her head and moved his face slightly back, and Gu Ziqi's peaceful sleeping face appeared in front of her eyes.

Li Yuqi stretched out his left hand, stroked it gently, and then left a kiss on her forehead.

He muttered with nostalgia in his mouth: "You know how lucky I am to meet you."
