Qin Zhen's eyes swept around the yard, and finally landed on Linglong and Manman.
Xiao Jue noticed her gaze and said: "Don't worry, I know they are the people around you. I didn't kill them, they just fainted."
Qin Zhen looked away and then looked at Xiao Jue: "His Royal Highness the Prince has a kind heart, so I thanked them on their behalf."
Xiao Jue: "...this sounds like scolding me."
"But it doesn't matter, I don't care." Xiao Jue smiled, stepped over the corpse at his feet, walked in front of Qin Zhen in two steps, and said softly, "We still have a long life in the future, you can save your strength and take your time later.
scold."
Qin Zhen was silent and said nothing.
Xiao Jue glanced at her for a few times and suddenly asked: "You don't seem to be surprised at all by my appearance?"
Qin Zhen raised her eyebrows: "Should I be surprised?"
Xiao Jue: "..."
He looked at Qin Zhen in silence for a moment, his mind racing, and many things he had ignored came to his mind instantly.
He said that Yuan Xu had been with him for many years and had never made such a stupid mistake. He clearly watched people drink wine with his own eyes, but nothing happened in the end.
It's not that Yuan Xu is incompetent, it's that Qin Hong and the others have already taken precautions. They had known for a long time that they would start an uprising tonight, so they had already asked the Imperial Army to take precautions. Even Lou Yan's rescue tonight was planned early in the morning.
Xiao Jue looked at Qin Zhen in disbelief: "You knew this a long time ago?"
Qin Zhen did not deny it and said calmly: "It's not difficult to guess His Highness's thoughts."
"You have planned Lou Yan's actions tonight? Are you using yourself as a bargaining chip to make Lou Yan betray me and obey your orders?" Xiao Jue stared at Qin Zhen and asked sternly.
The disgust in Qin Zhen's eyes was not hidden, but poured out bit by bit.
She looked at Xiao Jue and said slowly: "Do you think Lou Yan chose to betray you because of me?"
"Xiao Jue, please feel your conscience and think about it carefully. How has Lou Yan ever felt sorry for you since he followed you? At first, I really wanted to persuade Lou Yan not to obey you so much, but he said that you didn't do anything to him.
If you are kind, he will never betray you in this life."
"But Xiao Jue, what have you done?"
"You treat him like a dog and never treat him as a human being. He, Lou Yan, is your brother. That's all. But you still want to inform the queen about Concubine Lou Shu and conspire with the queen.
He killed Concubine Lou Shu. Do you know that Concubine Lou is his last relative in this world?"
When Qin Zhen said this, the corners of her eyes were a little red. In her mind, she uncontrollably recalled Lou Yan's helpless crying and the helplessness of locking herself in the room and drinking alcohol.
If Xiao Jue hadn't done everything extremely well, how could he have forced Lou Yan to where he is today?
He is such an upright and kind person.
After listening to Qin Zhen's words, Xiao Jue didn't feel there was anything wrong with what he did.
"Concubine Lou Shu was killed by my mother, what does it have to do with me? Besides, even if it was really me who did it, so what? I originally saved Concubine Lou Shu's life, and it doesn't matter if I take it back now.
Big deal.”
"Zhen Zhen, after saying so much, it's actually because you feel sorry for him, right?" Xiao Jue said word for word, "You feel sorry for him, that's why you accused me."
"But Zhen Zhen, it's obvious that we are the ones who love each other. That Lou Yan is just a third party who appears later. Who is he?"
"I know there are many things I did wrong in the past, and I promise you I will change them, and I will change them in the future."
Xiao Jue reached out to pull Qin Zhen's wrist and said softly: "Let's go, I will take you out of here."
Qin Zhen's face darkened, she tried hard to push Xiao Jue away, and said loudly: "Let me go!"
Xiao Jue suddenly tightened his grip on Qin Zhen's wrist and growled in a low voice: "Qin Zhen, I don't want to hurt you, just follow me."
Qin Zhen: "..."
She looked at Xiao Jue, slowly reduced her strength, and stopped struggling.
Xiao Jue came in a hurry and left even more hastily. As soon as he went out, he left Qin Zhen on the horse, got on the horse, took Qin Zhen and ran towards the city gate.
Qin Zhen looked at his escape route, sneered and said, "His Royal Highness, is he defeated and is he planning to escape?"
Xiao Jue said coldly: "I will come back sooner or later."
Qin Zhen stared at the direction of the city gate getting closer and closer, and said calmly: "Let's not talk about whether we will come back or not. Your Highness, you should think about how to get out."
As soon as the words fell, the horse under Xiao Jue's crotch suddenly stopped.
From a distance, Xiao Jue could see that the city gate was under martial law. It seemed that Lou Yan was one step ahead of him and had sealed the city gate.
Xiao Jue gritted his teeth, turned the horse's head, and ran in the other direction.
Qin Zhen was calm and waited for the horse to run for a while before saying, "Do you think that if they block the city gate, they will only block one city gate? His Royal Highness may be in a panic."
Xiao Jue ran for a while and finally stopped slowly.
He was silent for a while, then turned over and dismounted, pulling Qin Zhen off the horse.
Qin Zhen staggered, and was pulled by Xiao Jue through the streets, and finally came to a place that Qin Zhen was extremely familiar with.
Wanyan Tower.
When Qin Zhen first arrived in the capital, she and the fourth prince Xiao Yao often drank and had fun here.
She let Xiao Jue pull her into the back door of Wanyan Building, and she already had a premonition of something in her heart.
As expected, after entering Wanyan Building, they were led to Hongxue's room.
Hongxue came to open the door in person, her eyes quickly swept across Qin Zhen's face, then she looked at Xiao Jue and said softly: "Your Highness, come in."
Xiao Jue pulled Qin Zhen through the door. After Hongxue closed the door, Xiao Jue slowly released her hand that was holding Qin Zhen.
"Find a way to send us out of the city." Xiao Jue said coldly.
Hongxue always lowered her head slightly and did not look at Qin Zhen. She only said to Xiao Jue: "Now that the capital is under martial law, the imperial army and the people under the third prince are almost digging three feet into the entire capital. I'm afraid it's impossible to leave the city at this time.
So easy."
Xiao Jue was annoyed and slapped Hongxue on the face with his backhand, and said sternly: "Just do it if I tell you to do it. Why are you talking nonsense? The fourth child leaves you here, but you can't even do this little thing."
not good?"
Xiao Jue smiled coldly and said, "That's all the way the fourth child looks."
Hongxue's head was beaten to the side, and after a while, she said softly: "Yes, I will make arrangements right away, and I will send His Royal Highness out of the city as soon as possible."
Xiao Jue sat down on the chair and said calmly: "Prepare some food and drinks."
Hongxue did not dare to disobey and went down silently to prepare.
After they were full of wine and food, Hongxue quickly glanced at Qin Zhen who was standing aside, and whispered to Xiao Jue: "Your Highness, the princess is a woman, and I'm afraid it's not appropriate to sleep with you. Why don't we just sleep with you?"
Leave the princess to me, and I will definitely help His Royal Highness take good care of the princess."
