Xiaoyue went to the cabinet by the wall, pulled out a stack of sheets, wrapped Lan Junyao's body, and said: "You should remember what I say next, you may not listen to everything I say, anyway You must protect yourself first, understand?"

Sakurabuki nodded blankly.

"Now there is a way to get us all out of here, but we can only go our own way, and we must not be caught."

Ying blowing saw Xiaoyue pick up Lan Junyao's body, walked to the back of the bed, her legs seemed to be so weak that she fell to the ground: "You...what are you going to do..."

There is an alleyway wide for one person behind the bed, which is reserved for the servants to clean and stand. Xiao Yue quickly kicked off the sideboard of the bed, stuffed Lan Junyao into the belly of the bed, and skillfully installed the sideboard Going back: "As long as the wedding goes smoothly, this turmoil will be postponed as much as possible, and we will have a chance to escape, so..." He said, walking out from behind the bed, looking at Sakurabuki, "So someone needs to replace her." The Princess is married to King Xin."

"?"

"Only if the princess leaves the other courtyard first, can this place be deserted and have a chance to escape."

Pretend... Pretend to be the princess...

Sakurabuki couldn't believe her ears.

She knew that once Lan Junyao left the gate of the other courtyard, there would be nothing to guard in this other courtyard, but this room was already surrounded tightly, and there were only the two of them in the whole room.

Want her to pretend to be the princess?

It's impossible...she can't do it!

The blood on Lan Junyao's body soaked through the sheets and stained Xiaoyue's body. Xiaoyue took off his clothes and said, "Don't be afraid, I didn't ask you to come. You are the maid of the princess, and you have already made a noise just now. Now, there must be at least two people in this room, and the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs will be suspicious if they don’t see you when they come in, and I’m afraid no one will be able to leave at that time, besides... you play the princess, what should I do?”

He is a big man covering his face, it's okay, everyone in the Ministry of Internal Affairs has seen Yingbuki's face, and he can't be allowed to play Yingbuki. Besides, now it's dawn, there are not only the palace officials outside, but also Qi Chen's subordinates. There should be quite a few people here, and his face is also very ostentatious, he must never go out in a grandiose manner, and...

And he couldn't push this innocent girl into the tiger's mouth for his own survival.

Xiao Yue stuffed the bloody clothes he had taken off into the bottom of the closet, and said to Ying who was at a loss, "I will change into the wedding dress in a while, and you will cover for me. When the people from the palace pick me up, you will act as if nothing happened." leave the other courtyard as soon as possible, if possible..."

Seeing Xiaoyue's methodical analysis, Yingbuki felt that this person could be relied on, so she calmed down a lot.

Xiao Yue added: "If you want, you can try to take away the people who are acquainted with you in this other courtyard as much as possible, and try to get out of the city before my sedan chair arrives at the palace."

Sakurabuki looked at him with tears hanging down.

She understood what Xiaoyue meant, Lan Junyao's body would be found soon, and everyone in this courtyard tonight would definitely die, especially those who had entered Yanque Hall.

Xiaoyue continued: "According to the wedding customs in southern Guangdong, when I arrive at the palace, I will be sent to the Qianqiu Palace. At this time, King Xin will have a banquet with guests outside. That is my only chance to escape. I must seize the opportunity, so I cannot fight for you." Too much time."

"..."

"Once the people in the palace find out that the princess is missing, they will definitely search for it, so... if you take people from other courtyards out of the city, the speed will naturally slow down and the danger will increase when there are more people, but whether you take them or not depends on you." You, you can also choose to leave the city alone, because..."

Because what Lan Junyao said is right, other people's lives belong to others, and one's own life is one's own. Xiaoyue can be stupid and die, but he is not qualified to ask others to be the same as himself.

Yingbui sniffed and nodded, Xiaoyue said: "Don't be dazed, quickly wipe off the blood here." He said and threw a lot of sheets to Yingbui: "Hurry up, time is running out." too much."

Apart from listening to Xiao Yue, Ying Chui didn't know what to do, she spread the bed sheet on the floor and began to wipe the blood, her movements were chaotic.

Xiao Yue took off the outer clothes, dragged off the priceless wedding dress without hesitation, and put it on herself.

Xiaoyue's action of fastening the buttons is so unfamiliar that it is clumsy. This kind of Malay gown has three layers inside and three layers outside, and the buttons are even more intricate.

The movements of his hands were hasty, but his tone was extremely calm: "Tell them later that Gaoxu's bride can't speak casually. After the welcoming team picks me up, most people in the courtyard will follow. You should run away quickly when you see the right moment. .”

Sakurabuki wiped away her tears: "Okay..."

This is the only way.

Although Xiaoyue's stature is much taller than Lan Junyao's, as long as he doesn't wear the bottom of the flower pot and is the height of the purple gold phoenix crown, he should not be exposed.

When Qi Chen gave him the seven treasures, he had read some books about the marriage system of the Nanyue royal family, today Qi Chen will not come to welcome the bride in person, Xiao Yue will be sent directly to the mansion to worship.

then……

Xiaoyue tries hard to recall that at that time, the main and side doors of the palace will be wide open, and there will be a mixed bag of people coming and going. Although the defense must be strict, but disguised as a foreign merchant, it should not be too difficult to escape...

Ying Chui watched the nine-petal lotus's Xiapei neatly put on Xiaoyue's body little by little, and she seemed to see the hope of life.

She wiped the floor with all her strength, and cleaned all the blood from the cracks in the floor, and asked in a trembling voice, "You...are you really not a general?"

"..." Xiao Yue was startled for a moment, then said in silence for a moment, "My name is Xiao Han Yun, but I'm not your general."

Sakurabuki still looked puzzled, but now this question is not important anymore, the important thing is that he no longer wants to play anyone.

Whether it's General Xiao or Xiao Yue, they are two skins that don't belong to him, neither of which should be his life, ever since he had the idea of ​​staying by Qi Chen's side with Xiao Yue's skin, he It is already wrong.

Fortunately, God gave him a retreat, so that he still has the ability to end all this.

Now there are no people or things that Xiaoyue cares about in this capital city of Li. As for Master Fang... His whereabouts are unknown now. Xiaoyue hopes that he can get away from right and wrong killings and go to the life that Xiaoyue has always dreamed of but never had. .

Sakurabuki hid the blood-covered bed sheet in the closet, and turned to look at Xiaoyue.

Xiaoyue had already fastened all the buttons, his slender waist was wrapped in precious embroidered pieces, and the bright red Malay embroidered gown made his fair skin more beautiful than snow.

Gender aside, this is a coveted figure.

Xiao Yue sat in front of the dressing table: "Come help me tie my hair."

"it is good."

Sakurabuki calmed down a lot. She washed the blood off her hands, poured the blood from the copper basin into the incense burner, and then picked up the wooden comb lying in front of the vanity mirror.

It was already dawn, and the sound of gongs and drums was faintly heard in the compound.

The knock on the door sounded again, and Sakurabuki opened the door.

Xiaoyue held the twelve-page post in his hand, Yingchui and the female officials from the House of Internal Affairs supported him from left to right, and six maids walked slowly out of the Yanque Pavilion with their shawls [-] feet long.

There is a lot of voices and footsteps around, and countless voices of people and objects are mixed together, one after another, continuously.

Xiaoyue's eyes were hidden under the hijab, and all he could see were the two pairs of shoes beside him.

Occasionally, a few gravels appeared on the stone road under his feet. He didn't pay too much attention to everything around him, and his mind was full of the floor plan of Xinwang Mansion.

After staying in the palace for so long, he knows very well which road, which courtyard has the fewest people, and the regularity of changing shifts of secret sentries. As long as no one is deliberately rounded up, it is not difficult to leave. Take off the clothes and sneak away.

But how should he get out of town?

I wonder if Qi Chen will hide a token in Qianqiu Hall?

But he has never seen any peer tokens in Qianqiu Palace, and he can't let Sakurabuki wait for him.

It will be a matter of time before Lan Junyao's body is discovered, and his identity is also at risk of being exposed. He can't take care of himself and implicate this young girl.

He was so engrossed in his thoughts that when he went down the steps, his feet were empty, and there were exclamations all around him. The voice was crowded, and the number of people was far beyond Xiaoyue's prediction.

When the female officer was supporting him, she glanced up from the bottom, trying to peek at the face of the princess. She always felt that this princess seemed weird.

Xiao Yue nimbly dodged for a moment, she only saw the long fair side of the neck and a pair of thin red lips.

Ying Chui was trembling, Xiao Yue pinched her subtly to make him relax.

The road from Yanque Hall to the gate of the other courtyard is very long.

The sound of gongs, drums, silk and bamboo became more and more clear, and even reached the point of being noisy.

Xiao Yue stepped on the stone steps of the gate under the escort of countless people, stepping on endless noise.

Stepping on the red velvet carpet, Xiaoyue suddenly felt a little light, and there was a sudden silence in his ears, and he began to feel anxious instead.

Everyone was quiet, and Qin Tianjian began to read out the congratulatory speech——

"The flowers are beautiful and the moon is round in the golden phoenix, and the wind is surrounded by good luck. Don't let the painting fan out from the curtain, and walk flat on the lotus gilt platform to welcome the second son of the Southern Guangdong Emperor. The first-class princess Zong Zhengxin enters the sedan chair—"

"The princess is a thousand years old!!"

Amidst the thundering sound of worship, Xiao Yue was led into a sedan chair.

With the sound of gongs and drums, the sedan chair was driven off the ground.

The ceremonial guards are grand, with feather pagodas made of multicolored feather flags to clear the way, silver armored cavalry, green horses with long spears, golden root chariots full of red makeup, and thousands of craftsmen's beds, all kinds of things.

On the gold-carved Wangong sedan chair, there are magnificent reliefs, beautiful mountains and rivers, fish and dragons diving, Jinmen jade boats, and people flocking to the long street to see each other off for hundreds of miles.

In the confined space, Xiaoyue took off the hijab, and the car cavity was inlaid with gold foil with python and phoenix pictures, and his eyes were full of yellow, which made Xiaoyue a little dizzy.

This is a Wangong sedan chair. A craftsman works in one day. It takes 30 years to build a sedan chair. The appearance is embossed and made of pure gold seals. Such a heavy ceremony shows that Nanyue is eager to appease Gaoxu.

But the person sitting in this sedan chair is Xiao Yue.

Obviously at this time yesterday, he was still waiting to die in that cold courtyard with high walls, but now he was sitting on the sedan chair of Princess Xin.

An inexplicable fear was born in Xiao Yue's heart.

...the fear of that cage.

In the past, no matter what kind of torture and suffering he experienced, he had never felt so palpitating about that red door.

Xinwang Mansion——

All the officials in the court, the Chinese and the military, the wives of their families, and the big and famous merchants in the capital city of Li all came to the door.

Qin Tianjian led all the ministers of the House of Internal Affairs to meet the guards and waiters.

The bustling East Courtyard was crowded with people, and some guests who didn't like to be noisy would walk around and watch the magnificent scenery in the mansion.

But whenever someone walked to the west courtyard, they were asked to leave without exception.

The Xiaoxiang Pavilion is being demolished because it has been in disrepair for a long time.

The demolition of Xiaoxiang Pavilion was Qi Chen's decision when he was furious, but the Ministry of Industry started construction overnight and demolished the originally magnificent Xiaoxiang Pavilion into an empty frame full of holes.

At this time, Qi Chen regretted it again.

So there is only half of the dangerous pavilion left now.

Moreover, the minister of the Ministry of Industry once asked Qi Chen's wishes, asking if the sundries in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion should be kept, and Qi Chendao destroyed them all.

Therefore, at this time, the East Courtyard was full of joy, while Ming Shuo led Jin Yiwei to rummage through the ruins for buried objects.

The found items were placed under the broken peach tree in front of the yard, all of which were covered with heavy ash, and it was gray and white at first glance, and it was impossible to tell what it was.

Qi Chen stood in front of the pile of debris, wearing Qixia carved with dragons and embroidered phoenixes, but his expression was icy cold.

In his heart, there was something he regretted more than tearing down the Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

Looking at the tattered booklets lying at his feet, he suddenly thought of the letters and registers hidden in the Palace of Qianqiu.

Qi Chen picked up the book that was folded in half and still connected with tendons. This book was very similar to Qi Chen's official roster.

But it really wasn't that roster.

His brochure has been burned by Xiaoyue, and it contains paintings by Xiaoyue.

It's ugly, I don't know what it is painted on.

Qi Chen glanced at Jingku's direction.

What is Xiaoyue doing...

He should be able to hear the sound of gongs and drums.

Qi Chen was extremely regretful, maybe he shouldn't have forced Xiaoyue to make such a choice, Mo Ziwei was Fang Yuwu's confidant, and he must not stay here, and Chu Yu was Xiaoyue's confidant.

He remembered how Xiaoyue collapsed and roared on the long street that day.

Xiaoyue was so desperate in front of his eyes more than once, but it was the first time that he always looked at him with such hateful eyes, questioned him hysterically, and clearly cried in the most embarrassing appearance, but his eyes were full of blame and resentment.

But what was Qi Chen thinking at that time?

He wants to feel pain.

It seemed that only when Xiaoyue cried and begged to him, his anger could be weakly relieved.

He is used to crushing Xiaoyue into pieces, and slowly putting them back together again, time and time again, Xiaoyue always breaks into his arms and weeps.

Xiaoyue never seemed to hate him.

No matter what means he uses, how rough he is, Xiao Yue is like a resigned rabbit.

After a long time, Qi Chen thought that Xiao Yue would not hate others, so he even killed Chu Yu.

but……

Qi Chen remembered the look in Xiaoyue's eyes when he looked at him for the last time, with such resentment and despair.

His hands were trembling a little, and the dust on the folder rustled down.

In fact, he knew from the very beginning that what he did could only be hidden from Xiao Yue, and he was so terrified that he even once saw Xiao Yue's face and fell into deep fear.

He was afraid that Xiaoyue would abandon him, such fear choked his throat, he desperately wanted to pull Xiaoyue back to his side, he resented Fang Yuwu like crazy, he did not hesitate to use hundreds of thousands of troops from Nanyue as bait, Let Fang Yuwu die in Xizhou too.

In order to snatch Xiaoyue back from Fang Yuwu's hands, he resorted to all means, thus... sowing irreparable consequences.

He thought he already hated Xiaoyue, hated that he lied to him from beginning to end, hated him for causing him to lose Xiao Hanyun, hated him for his complete treachery, he wanted to make Xiaoyue suffer to death, make him even die Regret what you did.

So he demolished the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, destroying the courtyard and all the people who lived in it.

But when remorse penetrates deep into the soul, Fang feels terrified.

Qi Chen started to get scared.

But when everything became yesterday, he realized that he didn't really hate Xiaoyue, but... but loved him deeply.

Xiaoyue's words and deeds, every frown and smile, even those slight sighs and eyes, have already been entangled and lingering for many years.

He knew that Fu Jia was secretly delivering medicine to Jingku.

He always knew.

It's just that Xiaoyue... Xu Shi already hated him to the core.

Otherwise, how could he have colluded with the secret sentry, and even handed over the art of controlling soldiers to Fang Yuwu.

... Xiaoyue must hate him very much.

Qi Chen wanted to know when it all started.

The buried boxes in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion were dug out one by one and placed before Qi Chen's eyes.Plain and light-colored clothes, elegant chests and cabinets, accessories...

Everything was given by Qi Chen, nothing really belonged to Xiao Yue.

Because when Xiaoyue came, he was empty-handed.

"My lord!" Shen Yi'an ran over.

Qi Chen threw away the brochure, turned around and still looked cold.

Shen Yi hurriedly came to invite him, Qi Chen refused to go to the main hall to meet the ministers who came to congratulate him, Shen Yi'an could only be the one in the early stage, but those old guys were so powerful that he was devastated.

But Shen Yi'an can still share one or two of the rest of the chores for Qi Chen, but he dare not lend him ten heads to marry the princess. The procession of ceremonial acceptance has already stopped in front of the gate of the palace, but Qi Chen has not shown up for a long time.

Shen Yi'an panted, with a bitter expression on his face: "My lord, hurry up and pick up the concubine at the door, the humble official here will watch over for you, if you continue to neglect the empress dowager, I'm afraid the empress dowager will have to look after the concubine again."
