"No... don't... run again!" After running for dozens of miles under the faint moonlight, Lin Zhong was already out of breath, but the person who was pulling him felt like the wind was blowing on his feet, and he didn't feel the slightest. exhausted.

"Prince Lin, we can't delay here. The palace gate is ahead, we just need to fool the guards and we can get out!" The speaker looked anxious.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Zhong had no choice but to grit his teeth and follow up.

Finally, you can see the vermilion gate in front of you, and teams of guards are neatly arranged, patrolling back and forth, and the guards are very strict.The man found a hiding place, opened the burden on his body, and took out a piece of clothing for Lin Zhong, "Prince Lin, please feel wronged, and change into the clothes."

"Oh." Lin Zhong hurriedly took the clothes, but the clothes of Nanhua Kingdom were too strange, and coupled with nervousness, he couldn't put them on for a long time, which made him sweat profusely.

"Oh, how stupid..." the man said and stepped forward to help him.

The prince who has always been a high-ranking and powerful prince was said to be stupid, and Lin Zhong was very unhappy, but now he couldn't get angry, so he could only keep silent.

One arm was wrapped around his neck, Lin Zhong only regarded him as a collar, and one hand was placed on his chest, Lin Zhong silently thought that he was facing the front of his chest, but when the man pressed himself from behind, his hands encircled him. Lin Zhong couldn't hold back his own waist anymore, and knocked off his hand at once, his eyes widened: "What are you doing!"

A crisp slap attracted the attention of the waiting guard.

"Who is it!" A guard stepped forward.

The man got a piece of black veil from nowhere, and covered Lin Zhong's face all of a sudden, leaned his head on his shoulder abruptly, wrapped his arms around his waist with one hand, and whispered in his ear Say, "Don't talk."

When the guards approached, before he could speak, the man took out a jade deed from his waist. Lin Zhong's eyes lit up. As a prince, he naturally knew that the jade deed could only be unique to the crown prince. the only proof of .Seeing the jade deed, the guard hurriedly knelt down and saluted, "I don't know if it's His Royal Highness, but please forgive me for being rude."

"Well, now that you know it's rude, don't get in my way. My king is going out of the palace tonight."

"Yes! Please, Your Majesty!" As he said that, he gave way to the road.

"Wait!" A man who looked like a general came from the side, staring closely at Lin Zhong in his arms, and asked, "His Royal Highness, forgive me for asking, this is—"

"What do you think?" The man pulled Lin Zhong's unfastened belt with his hand, "This is from Shenyan Pavilion, what are we going to do outside the palace, do we have to report to you? "

"This subordinate has offended you! Your Highness, please!" Upon hearing the words "Shenyan Pavilion", the general immediately fell silent and stepped out of the way. Several guards behind him snickered.

The man gave the general a blank look, walked towards the palace gate with Lin Zhong in his arms, and said "Whether you want to mention this to the emperor or not, it's up to you."

"This subordinate understands!" The general nodded immediately.

Following the man out of the palace gate, Lin Zhong pushed him away, "Who the hell are you? Why do you have the prince's jade deed?"

"Stolen." The voice was full of pride, "Is Prince Lin so easy to forget things? We only met last night, and I am the one who plays the strings tonight."

"Of course I know it's you. You dressed like that on purpose and played some thief's tune. You're not kind."

"Oh, I sang by myself, Prince Lin, please don't pretend to be yourself."

"What is your identity? It seems that you are very familiar with the prince."

"I am Prince Xianma, Chu Ao, Prince Lin calls me Taiheng."

"Oh, it's a third-rank official." Lin Zhong thought thoughtfully, and suddenly drew out the sharp sword hidden in his sleeve, aimed it at his throat, "Say! Why did you help me leave the palace? What's your intention? Who sent you here? "

"Prince Lin, what are you doing? I help you escape, and you still treat me like this, so sad." The person under the sword was not nervous at all, and he was still smiling, seeing that Lin Zhong didn't seem to be joking at all. , had no choice but to say sternly: "His Royal Highness is stupid and incompetent. A good bird chooses a tree to live in. I want to abandon the dark and turn to the bright."

"Ridiculous, I heard that the crown prince of Nanhua Kingdom is Lihuo. He is extremely smart and proficient in military skills. He is a rare genius who has never been seen in a century. How could he be a fool?" Although Lin Zhong also saw the stupidity of the prince tonight, Lin Zhong still pretended I don't know, I want to find out.

"The so-called cleverness and proficiency in military skills are all due to the advice of a group of assistant ministers. The crown prince is surrounded by the most talented and strategic people assigned to him by the imperial concubine. I said, Prince Lin, can you put down the sword first?" , shall we talk again?" Chu Ao flicked the sword in front of him with his fingers.

"The person who offered advice includes you! Nanhua Kingdom has provoked wars everywhere in recent years, causing the surrounding countries to live in unrest. It is because of a treacherous minister like you who offered advice, you should be killed!" The sword in Lin Zhong's hand stuck tighter. .

"Prince Lin, the grand strategy of fighting in Nanhua Kingdom was proposed by the imperial concubine in order to help the prince ascend the throne smoothly in the future. We can't help ourselves, besides , I’m just a little Xianma, what role can I play? The real idea has always been discussed by the ministers in the court. No, I really don’t want to help the tyrant anymore, so I ran out.” Chu Ao blinked, with a pitiful expression on his face.

Lin Zhong felt that what he said made sense, hesitated for a while, and finally withdrew his sword, "You go! But don't come with me."

"Prince Lin, do you know how to go back? You are a prince from Beili Kingdom, and you are walking alone in the strange Nanhua Kingdom. You will be arrested within half a day." Chu Ao smiled with squinted eyes.

"Then I don't need you to lead the way, I will figure out a way myself." Looking at the man with an unscrupulous face on the opposite side, Lin Zhong was very defensive.

"How about this, Prince Lin, I will show you a way. When I reach the border of Beili Kingdom, I will leave. If I make any changes along the way, you can kill me at any time, how about it?" Chu Ao looked serious.

"Why do you help me like this?" Lin Zhong always felt apprehensive in his heart, since the first time we met.

"Because—" Chu Ao blinked mischievously, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, "You are the prince, and I will be in trouble in the future. Prince Lin must save me."

"Hmph, that depends on how dishonest you are. If you really help me go back, I will definitely return your favor." Lin Zhong finally felt relieved, "Then let's hurry up now, before it's too late."

"Okay, Prince Lin, this way please!" Chu Ao immediately smiled and made a gesture of respectful invitation.

Lin Zhong stepped forward, followed by Chu Ao.

On the empty long street in the capital, two slender figures walked back and forth under the bright moonlight. The night was very quiet, only two or three chirping of insects by the roadside.

"By the way, what is the Shenyan Pavilion? Why did the general give way as soon as this or that was mentioned."

"It is a place where princes and nobles seek——, take care of their bodies and cultivate their sentiments."

"Oh."

In the middle of the night, Chu Ao called Lin Zhong, "Prince Lin, let's rest before we go, the moon is dark and the wind is high, and we are the only ones walking at night, so it's more obvious, isn't it?"

Feeling that what he said made sense, Lin Zhong stopped and asked, "Where to rest?"

"Find an inn."

"I have no money."

"I have it! I have it!" Chu Ao's eyes lit up excitedly when he heard that Lin Zhong agreed to stay in the hotel.

"Why are you so happy?"

"Uh... I can finally have a good sleep! Ha—" After finishing speaking, Chu Ao yawned greatly and stretched himself.

Stop in front of the sign of an inn called "Yiliu Xiaozhu". This inn is not big, but very elegant.Chu Ao tilted his head and stared at Lin Zhong: "Prince Lin, this is the one."

"okay."

Gently knocked on the door, "Who is it?" came from inside, and then there was the sound of kicking shoes when getting up and getting off the ground.The small baffle on the door was pushed open, revealing an extremely sleepy face, with one eye barely open, looking at the two people in front of him.

"Housing." Chu Ao replied.

"It's full!" After saying that, he was about to close the shutter.

"Then let us live in your room." Chu Ao met the man's eyes.

The man's eyes slowly opened, looked at Chu Ao, did not move for a long time, and suddenly nodded: "Guest officer, please come inside." Opening the door, Chu Ao and Lin Zhong walked in, and were led all the way to a room.

"Why would he agree to let us live in his own room? Where does he live?" Lin Zhong asked curiously, why did Chu Ao just glance at that person, that person seemed to have lost his soul, and suddenly became so talkative.

"Because I showed him this, it is enough for him to buy a good piece of land." Chu Ao took out an ingot of gold in his sleeve, raised his hand, and the man took it with a happy smile, "Thank you, my lord!"

"This is just one bed, how can the two of us sleep?" Lin Zhong looked at a small bed with dissatisfaction.

"Eh? Master and Miss, don't you want to share the same bed?" The man smiled lewdly.

"Miss? □□?" Lin Zhong didn't understand.

The man also became suspicious, looked Lin Zhong up and down, pointed at him, and opened his mouth in shock, "This is actually a young master?"

Chu Ao turned the man around and pushed the door out, "Are you sleepy? Go out and find a place to sleep. We are tired. We should go to bed early and don't bother us."

"Wait, you haven't said yet, why did I become a young lady?" Lin Zhong wanted to stop him, but Chu Ao quickly closed the door.

"Chu Ao, what the hell are you doing! I still have to ask him!" Lin Zhong was furious.

"Prince Lin, if you keep pestering me, do you want him to know that we have just escaped from the palace? If he said tomorrow morning that there were two men staying at night, you and I would die."

"But why did he call me Miss?" Lin Zhong broke the casserole and asked the end.

"Because..." Chu Ao lowered his head, suddenly lost his confidence, and slowly walked up to Lin Zhong, tugging at his belt, "You are wearing the clothes of a dancer from Nanhua Kingdom."

"You!" Lin Zhong was so angry that he wanted to slap Chu Ao in the face.

"Don't! Don't! Don't!" Chu Ao shielded his face with his hands in fear, "Prince Lin, think about it, if we hadn't been disguised as a man, would we have been able to get out of the palace gate? I'm afraid we would have been detained there."

Lin Zhong heard this, and suddenly stopped his fist that was about to fly, a bit like eating a yellow lotus, but even if he is not dumb, he can't tell the dumbfounding.

"Besides, Prince Lin doesn't know that you are more beautiful than the most beautiful woman in South China?" Chu Ao asked cautiously when he saw Lin Zhong put down his fist.

"Say more!" After finishing speaking, he punched and rushed out again.

"Ouch—" Chu Ao clutched the back of his head after being violently punched, and became honest all of a sudden.

"Go to sleep, we have to go on the road tomorrow morning." Lin Zhong thought about the long journey home, feeling very melancholy, and thinking about walking with this person for a long time, he was even more frustrated. cot.

"Well, Prince Lin, can you squeeze in, where can I sleep if you dominate the whole bed like this?" Chu Ao blinked and asked pitifully.

"You still want to sleep on this bed? Sleep underground!" How could the dignified prince share the same bed with a servant?

"Prince Lin, I have been suffering from a cold since I was a child, and I can't fall asleep. If I really fall asleep, I won't be able to wake up tomorrow morning. I'm afraid I'll have to carry you on my back." Chu Ao narrowed his eyes and seemed to be smiling. laugh.

"Why do you have so many things to do? It's really troublesome!" Lin Zhong looked at him impatiently, with a look of contempt on his face, and finally turned his back and lay down. empty.

Chu Ao almost jumped up and lay down next to each other. The bed was originally small, but there were two tall men sleeping there. Even though they were thinner, they were still close to each other.

With a "huh", Chu Ao couldn't wait to blow out the candle.

In the darkness where you can't see your fingers, the two finally fell silent.

Suddenly, there was a crisp slap, and Lin Zhong's angry voice said again: "Where are you putting your hands!"

"Aiyo—" It was Chu Ao's painful voice again, "I was afraid of falling, so I wanted to grab something."

"Then you can't hug me either!"

"Understood, Prince Lin." Chu Ao didn't want to be slapped again, and finally lay down honestly.

It didn't take long before Lin Zhong's heavy breathing sounded in his ears. Lin Zhong was already exhausted after running around all day.Chu Ao stuck to his ear and called softly: "Guo'er?" The people next to him were already fast asleep, so they couldn't hear him.After making sure that he was asleep, Chu Ao lightly wrapped a hand around his waist, and then fell asleep peacefully.

"Sweet dream, my fruit."
