144. Chapter 144 Leaving the Palace in Distress

That's the end of this matter of someone's ulterior motives. Ying Zheng said he would find out the matter and asked me not to worry about it.

Fortunately, the ring and token I ordered were returned together with my clothes, which was a blessing. I put the ring away and prepared to find a suitable opportunity to take it out.

When I saw Wei Liao's clothes in the baggage, I thought I should find an opportunity to return it to him. I also agreed to redeem the jade that I had given to the clothing store, but it was clear that someone was going to harm me, so it was better to be careful.

Ten days later, looking at Wei Liao's clean clothes, I hesitated whether I should return them to him in person.

"A Zheng, I have something to do and I have to leave the palace." I looked at Ying Zheng, feeling anxious in my heart whether to tell him the real reason why I left the palace.

"Qingchi, do you have to go out?" Ying Zheng put down the bamboo slips in his hand and stretched out his hand to me. I walked towards him and he held me in his warm arms.

"Azheng, don't worry, I'll be back in a while." I leaned my head on his forehead and rubbed it gently.

"Well, I'll send someone to protect you." Ying Zheng raised his head and looked at me, his bright black eyes made me couldn't help but kiss his eyes.

"It's okay, I'll be back in a minute, don't bother!" I lifted his chin with my hand and teased him: "Smile for me, your face is so serious, haha!"

"Bold!" Ying Zheng opened his eyes angrily, pretending to be angry, locked me tightly in his arms, and punished me with ten tortures.

"Ahaha! Haha...Ahaha! I was wrong, please forgive me! Please forgive me!" I lay in his arms and begged for mercy.

***

Half an hour later, Lu'er and I drove out of the palace in a carriage. I didn't ask Ying Zheng to send someone to protect me because I went to see Wei Liao because I was afraid that Ying Zheng would misunderstand him if he knew about it, and I was afraid that it would affect Wei Liao's status in Qin.

In terms of official career, after all, he will be an important minister assisting the King of Qin in his administration.

We first went to the pawn shop to redeem Wei Liao's jade pendant. When Lu'er and I went out to pick up the horse, Lu'er suddenly said: "Sister, why is this horse so stubborn? I won't drive it away!"

"Indeed, haven't you fed it?" We had to feed and drink the horse from a nearby horse drinking place before setting off.

Walk all the way to Xiaoshe in the western suburbs of the city.

"Lu'er, are you sure you're going this way?" Lu'er drove the carriage all the way west and had been walking for about an hour. I couldn't help but ask.

"Sister, it's going this way, I've already asked about it." Lu'er said while driving the carriage.

I had no choice but to wait patiently, thinking that the outskirts of the city were not too far away, so I told Ying Zheng that I would go back soon.

Unexpectedly, after redeeming jade and drinking horses, looking at the sky outside the window, I was afraid that I would not be able to return to the palace until Shenshi. Shenshi is almost equivalent to 3 to 5 pm in modern times.

"Ah, sister!" Lu'er shouted outside. I quickly picked up the curtain and looked out, only to see Lu'er looking back at me with a panicked look on her face.

"Sister, the horse seems to be frightened. For some reason, I can't control it!"

The horses galloped, and the scenery whizzed by on both sides of the carriage.

"Don't be afraid, let's come together!" I quickly stepped forward and held the reins of the horse with Lu'er.

"Uh-huh! Uh-huh..." The horse was almost turned sideways by the pull of the two of us, and it just grunted, foaming at the mouth.

"Bang!" followed by a loud shout from Lu'er and I, the carriage stopped by the Weishui River. Lu'er and I looked at each other. Her face was pale and her hair was messy. I thought I would not be much better at this moment.
