"The Ling family wants to keep a low profile and reduce the threat in order to preserve the family."

"Send a message to Xuancheng, the capital. If the emperor doesn't take action, we have to take action. We must not let go of Ling Yi. If we give him a chance, there is a 70% chance that he will turn around."

"If you lose your right arm, you don't have a brain."

Li Yi raised his eyes with a far-reaching gaze.

The guard nodded.

After the group had rested, they were ready to continue on their way.

But as soon as he got on his horse, Li Yi caught a glimpse of a figure at the river. If he looked carefully, he looked familiar.

At this moment, the man turned his head and looked at each other from a distance, and the corners of Li Yi's eyes twitched.

Mao Wenyun!

How could I meet her outside Duxuan City!!!

Don't tell this girl to stop running around!!!

Riding his horse, Li Yi rushed straight towards Mao Wenyun.

Mao Wenyun frowned slightly, this man's eyes looked so familiar.

Pulling out the knife, Li Yi's eyes were stern.

Mao Wenyun looked at the sharp blade, his pupils widened, and then his body fell softly.

…

"Dabao, where is your mother and concubine?"

Outside the hall, Liang Ningxi knelt down and held Dabao's little hand with a smile on her lips.

Liang Ningxi visited Zhaohua Palace frequently, so Dabao was no stranger to her.

"My mother and concubine were taking a nap, and I sneaked out." Dabao looked around and made a gesture to silence Liang Ningxi.

"Princess Ning Xi, I don't want to tell you anymore. Aunt Xia Ling will catch me later."

Poking his head around, Dabao moved toward the palace gate like a thief.

"Watch carefully, don't let the princess find out."

As soon as Dabao slipped out, Xia Ling came out of the palace and gave instructions to the palace maid.

Under their noses, Dabao still wanted to slip away, but they knew she was very active and couldn't restrain her too tightly.

"Princess Ning Xi, please sit down in the side hall for a while, and I will wake up the empress."

Xia Ling walked towards Liang Ningxi, bowed, and spoke in a manner that was neither close nor distant.

"I didn't pay attention to the time today. I came a little early. Don't disturb the queen and let her sleep more." Liang Ningxi had an easy-going attitude.

"Princess Ning Xi, come with me."

Xia Ling showed her the way.

After being served tea, Xia Ling bowed and left.

"Dabao went to the Royal Garden again?"

Xiao Qingyue tucked Xiaobao's quilt and got up from the bed, with a hint of tenderness between her brows.

Xia Ling stepped forward to tidy up her clothes, lowering her voice so as not to disturb Xiaobao, "Mother, Princess Ning Xi is here."

"Two quarters of an hour at most, wake up Xiaobao. He has slept for too long. It's time to make a fuss with Dabao at night."

"This one calls me "Mother Concubine", that one calls me "Mother Concubine", the more playful I am, the more awake I will be." Xiao Qingyue shook her head and smiled, and walked out of the inner hall.

"Big baby and little baby are still very well-behaved. No matter how playful they are, they will never get past the age of 11." Xia Ling said with a smile.

"That's not a punishment."

"You know how to help me talk."

"Your Majesty, their eyes are like grapes and watery as they look at you. Who can be heartless?"

While talking, the two of them arrived at the side hall.

Liang Ningxi stood up from the chair and said, "I'm disturbing the queen."

"I just didn't fall asleep."

Xiao Qingyue sat down with Liang Ningxi. After spending nearly half a year together, she and Liang Ningxi had become very close.

"After putting the little one to sleep, the older one slipped away as usual."

"Children, it's time to be active." Liang Ningxi smiled and chatted with Xiao Qingyue, looking at the peace and tenderness in her brows, her eyes lowered.

Xia Ling has already fetched the pen and ink.

Xiao Qingyue had a natural affection for Liang Ningxi. When Liang Ningxi proposed to practice calligraphy with her, Xiao Qingyue did not refuse.

After staying for more than an hour, Liang Ningxi left Zhaohua Palace.

Xiao Qingyue asked Xia Ling to put away her pen and ink and go to the Imperial Garden to find her daughter.

If you are not in front of me, you will always feel uneasy.

When the meeting opened, Liang Ningxi held up the pen and slowly waved it on the paper. It was different from the sluggishness in the palace, it was extremely smooth, and the character "xiao" was very delicate, and it was eighty percent similar to Xiao Qingyue's handwriting.

…

Beside the fire, Mao Wenyun hugged herself. Li Yi glanced at her, "You were unlucky and had to bump into me, so I took off your coat and didn't touch you."

"If you don't believe me, ask them."

"Let you run around." Li Yi threw a dead branch into the fire without much apology.

Mao Wenyun turned her head angrily. It wasn't him who asked her to stay away. In order not to attract his attention anymore, she immediately went elsewhere after understanding the river course of Huanhu Lake.

Who knew the road could be so narrow!

"I am on the run, and now I am forced to take a woman with me. She is useless and wastes food." Li Yi muttered, seeming to have been greatly wronged.

"You can let me go." Mao Wenyun said.

"Let you go? Where to let me go?"

"Didn't you receive the message?"

"The Marquis of Jing'an was attacked and kicked off the cliff. His face was completely changed beyond recognition. If I let you go, my fake death would be exposed."

"The remaining people from the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion, do they still have a way to survive?"

"It was a kindness of mine not to kill you on the spot and destroy your body."

"Hurry up and eat up, we have to go on the road soon."

Li Yi looked disgusted. Mao Wenyun looked at him and silently bit into the meat pie.

"Why did you leave? Or did you fake your own death?"

"You bothered to go back, and then you gave up all your hard work so easily?"

Wiping his mouth, Mao Wenyun asked.

Li Yi glanced at her, "Miss Mao Er fell into the water and was washed away. You have to understand your current situation. The more you know, the greater the chance of being silenced."

"Once a level is captured and there is no way to escape, I will definitely deal with you first."

"Are you really Jiang Jin?" Mao Wenyun looked directly into Li Yi's eyes, with no hint of timidity on his face.

Li Yi leaned forward and raised his eyebrows teasingly, "Why don't you take off my clothes and verify it?"

"Be calm. The journey is long. We will inevitably need to vent when the urge comes up..."

Mao Wenyun walked past Li Yi with a sullen face and walked towards the horse.

"Okay, don't leave them alone and watch, let's get on with it."

Li Yi glanced at the sturdy goods, jumped on his horse, and then pulled Mao Wenyun up.

There was no horse prepared for her, and with her barely able riding skills, it would be useless to prepare one.

Naturally, the escape was as fast as it came. Mao Wenyun was a girl, but at this moment, Li Yi could not show any sympathy for her, and he could bear it even if he couldn't bear it.

If she was going to die on the road and they met each other, Li Yi would dig a hole for her and bury her tightly.

The dust rushed into his eyes, and the cold wind hurt his face. Mao Wenyun turned to look at Li Yi, gritted his teeth, and pulled off his coat.

Li Yi blinked, "What are you doing?"

"Can you be more reserved!"

"This is on a horse!"

Mao Wenyun took Li Yi's coat and held it in front of him, allowing Mao Wenyun to breathe.

Jiang Jin couldn't let her go, and Mao Wenyun didn't want to lose his life in vain. At this time, what should he worry about? Living is the most important thing.

Li Yi curled his lips and waved his whip, causing the horse to run faster.

The guards also quickly followed.
