With his slender fingertips, the blue hair on Murong Yingluo's forehead fell off. Si Wushang looked at the sleeping Yingluo with gentle eyes and said, "Luo'er, I'm sorry! I just want to protect your safety. I'm afraid I have to leave without saying goodbye this time."
He directly sealed Murong Yingluo's acupuncture points, picked her up by the waist and sent her back to their bedroom. He pulled up the quilt and covered her with it. He wanted to leave Yingchuan City before dawn. It was not a love affair between children at this time.
For a long time, for the sake of the overall situation, I have to leave even if I am reluctant to leave.
He walked straight out of the door. Yang Bupo and Cheng Feng were guarding the door. He glanced at Yang Bupo and said that he should have kept him. He was the emperor's man. If he didn't accompany him to Puyang, the emperor would not feel at ease.
"Bupa, Chengfeng! Get ready to leave!"
Yang Bupo thought secretly in his heart, how can he follow the princess now that her acupuncture points have been sealed? Zhener is waiting outside the palace, should she go and tell her?
All the thoughts came to me in just a blink of an eye, "Yes!" followed immediately.
The morning light gradually appeared in the sky, King Zheng left with his people, and calm returned to the palace. Yingluo opened her eyes on the bed, expecting that he would leave without saying goodbye.
Sealing acupuncture points is his usual tactic. If an acupuncture point is really sealed, he will sleep for two days and two nights, and it will not be so easy to capture Prince Zheng's whereabouts.
In order to prevent the housekeeper from leading someone to search for it, Yingluo left a note in the room, explaining that she was going to find the prince and there was no need to send anyone to search for it. She searched for the package under the bed and jumped out of the window.
She and Prince Zheng were searching for classics last night. Zhen'er and Bupo had prepared the carriage, and now Zhen'er was waiting outside the palace.
With an anxious look on her face, Zhen'er was arranged by Yang Bupo to wait in the alleyway in the backyard of the palace, which was relatively secluded. She successfully evaded the detection of the patrol guards of the palace several times. It was already dawn, but the young lady did not come.
I was wondering, has the prince discovered the young lady’s escape plan? Waiting like this is not an option, should I go back to the palace?
"Zhen'er, I kept you waiting!"
"Miss, you are finally here." For safety reasons, the carriage was waiting on the street in front, and the person driving the carriage was Yang Bupo's confidant.
Following the marks left by Yang Bupo, the carriage cautiously followed King Zheng's team, and after two days and two nights of driving, the two groups arrived at Jishui Town, a relatively quaint town, where King Zheng wanted to go.
Stay one night.
At this speed, it still took five days to reach Puyang. Si Wushang ordered someone to book a quiet courtyard in Tongfu Inn and called Cheng Feng into the room.
There has always been a trace of concern in his heart. He was as meticulous as Chen and had long discovered that Yang Bupo had left a secret message, "Chengfeng, is there anything strange?"
Si Wushang noticed something unusual about Yang Bupo and ordered Chengfeng to investigate, "Your Majesty, the mark left by Yang Bupo should be reserved for the princess."
"The princess is safe now!"
Si Wushang sounded gentle and reproachful at the same time, "Luo'er, you are really restless."
Si Wushang was not in a hurry to expose it, "Order someone to protect him secretly!"
At this time, Yingluo's carriage had just arrived at Jishui Town. For the convenience of traveling, both women had disguised themselves as men.
The carriage passed through the quaint streets and headed towards the town.
After driving for two days in a row, all the bones in my body were shaking.
The carriage was moving slowly, and Zhen'er had no internal strength to protect herself. She leaned slantedly on Yingluo's shoulder, her face pale and she looked very tired.
Yingluo was thinking about finding an inn to stay at, and the two of them could rest for a night to recuperate before heading on the road.
"Zhen'er, let's find a place to stay and have a rest in a while. It's not an option if we are so exhausted."
"Miss, Zhen'er is fine!"
Even though the windows were open, it was still very stuffy inside the carriage. Zhen'er's body was weak and could not bear to travel day and night.
Suddenly, she heard a woman's shrill cry for help coming from outside the carriage. Yingluo heard the sound and hurriedly looked out the window. Seven or eight ruffian-like men were bullying two fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls in the street.
One girl was pinned down, and the other girl couldn't bear the humiliation and bit her tongue to commit suicide.
With the sound of cracking silk, half of the clothes were torn off, and the white lotus-rooted arms were exposed.
The woman called out sadly, but no one stood up. Murong Yingluo said angrily, "Stop the car!"
The guard outside the carriage said: "Master, it's better not to deal with this kind of thing."
Murong Yingluo could leave her alone, but she couldn't do it if she wanted to watch that woman being raped in the street and not save her until she died.
Before the carriage could stop, Yingluo had already flown into the crowd and kicked the man away. Then several scoundrels rushed up and surrounded him.
These people are just a mob, vulnerable to a single blow, and they can subdue these scoundrels with just a few moves.
The leader is a middle-aged, wretched man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. He is not a good guy at first glance.
"Who are you? How dare you run wild on my young master's territory!"
Yingluo was dressed in a blue lake-colored male outfit, with a heroic look on her brows, "Langri Zhaozhao dares to bully a decent woman like this, and is so arrogant even after forcing her to death. Is there such a thing as a king's law?"
The man stood up with help from others, "How did you come out of nowhere to ruin my good deeds? To tell you the truth, my family is protected by people in the capital. I am the king's law, not just a human life."
They really are a bunch of scoundrels. As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake. Yingluo didn't want to cause more trouble, so she rescued the frightened girl first.
The woman lay sadly and cried: "Tao'er, Tao'er."
Yingluo looked at her pitifully, took off her coat and put it on the woman's body, "Follow me!"
Those gangsters were just bluffing, and they were no match for Murong Yingluo. Yingluo helped the woman onto the carriage, but she still hadn't woken up from the shock.
Yingluo consoled her: "Don't worry, everything is fine."
When the woman thought that her maid had died unjustly, she cried sadly, "My little lady, I would like to thank you for saving me."
"It's just a little effort."
It was getting dark today and they were looking for an inn to stay. Through the secret message left by Yang Bupo, they learned that Prince Zheng was staying at Tongfu Inn, so they chose a small inn to stay.
Knowing from the woman's mouth that she was not from Jishui Town, Yingluo asked for a room for Wei Qinghan, prepared some money, and sent her out of the city tomorrow.
In the hazy night, Zhen'er had gone to sleep long ago, but Yingluo couldn't sleep. When she heard the noise coming from outside, a group of people rushed to her room, and they immediately put themselves on guard.
He stretched out his hand and took Zhen'er, "Zhen'er, wake up quickly!"
At this time, the door of the inn was knocked open, and a group of officers and soldiers held torches in their hands and surrounded the courtyard.
"Come here! Arrest him!"
Murong Yingluo looked at each other coldly, "I wonder what crime I have committed?"
"You attempted adultery in the street and then committed two major crimes of murder and escaping!"
Yingluo had never heard such a funny joke before. How could she, a woman, commit the crime of adultery!
"You are really ridiculous! The murderer is a rogue, everyone can see it, but you are confusing right and wrong with a red queen and white teeth!"
"We don't care whether you committed a crime or not. You are the one our young master wants to arrest. Someone come and do it!"
Murong Yingluo frowned coldly, that scoundrel really worked hard, the inn was full of people from the government, she really regretted not killing the lewd thief with a single blow.
If she could escape alone, Zhen'er and Wei Qinghan, who had just been rescued, must not let the two women fall into the hands of the thief.
Pulling Zhen'er behind him, he pulled out the long sword from his waist and started fighting, "Swords have no eyes, so come here if you are not afraid of death!"
