Zhirou is a weak woman, even if she tried to resist, it wouldn't be of much use, and besides, she might have been really frightened by Master Xu's words just now, so she actually showed a little obedience.

It's just that Xue Yao saw her ashen-hearted eyes outside the door, and rushed in directly with a pain in his heart.

He can't control this matter, but he can't ignore it.

With his skill, even though he was injured, rushing in was like a gust of wind, Mr. Xu would not have noticed, suddenly the back of his neck felt cold, and he passed out and collapsed on Zhirou.

Xue Yao moved him away from Zhirou, and Zhirou obviously recognized the person in front of her, the one who saved her from danger that night.Immediately rushed over, crying bitterly in Xue Yao's arms.

The crying sound was full of helplessness and sadness, Xue Yao felt sad, he held her quietly in his arms, and let her vent.

Zhirou had cried enough, raised her head from Xue Yao's arms, and wiped the tears on her face with embarrassment, "Let benefactor see the joke."

Xue Yao pursed his lips, wanting to say something comforting, but seemed a bit speechless.

Zhirou asked, "Why did En Gong come here today? Is he here to see Zhirou? Thanks to you, you saved me again."

It was only at this moment that Xue Yao suddenly realized that he shouldn't show up. He just wanted to see her and know that she was fine. Now this situation is probably troublesome.

And this Mr. Xu, how should we deal with it.

Zhirou saw that he was frowning at Master Xu, and there was some fear on his face.

"Engong, you should leave quickly. If Master Xu's accomplices find out later, it will be bad. Zhirou is a poor life, don't implicate Engong."

Hearing what she said, Xue Yao was even more embarrassed, "If I leave, what good way can Miss Zhirou deal with this matter?"

Zhirou's smile was very bleak, "It's just one fire pit to another fire pit, there's no good way to talk about it."

"..."

This is not what Xue Yao would like to see, he took action to save her, not to push her into a deeper pit of fire.

Right now, if Master Xu wakes up, Zhi Rou can only go with him, Xue Yao can't sit idly by, but he can't think of any good way right now.

With a hot head, "Come with me, find a place to settle down first, as for the future, you can think about it slowly."

When Zhirou heard it, her eyes lit up, "Really?"

In the blink of an eye, the fire went out again, "The city is so big, I am a little girl, with no relatives and no reason, where can I go?"

"Where's your father?" Xue Yao asked so smoothly that he felt a little abrupt after asking.

Zhirou felt a little depressed, "My father died on the battlefield. My mother almost committed suicide when she heard the news of my father's death in battle. I had no choice but to come to Huafang."

"So that's how it is," it turns out that the old man never came back, no wonder Zhirou's life is so difficult.

As the saying goes, save people to the end and send Buddha to the west. Since you have saved people, there is no reason to leave them halfway.If it's a strange woman, it's impossible for Xue Yao to let her go if she is rescued, not to mention that the other party is still Zhirou, even if they can't make a husband and wife in this life, Xue Yao can't ignore her.

"Miss Zhirou, don't worry too much, find a place to settle down first, I have a way to keep you safe."

"Really?" Zhirou was a little dubious, "Will you not hurt your benefactor?"

"Naturally," Xue Yao already had some calculations in his mind, and he just left here in one fell swoop, "It's just that if you still want to stay on this flower boat, I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult."

"It would be the best if we can get out of here." In Zhirou's words, it sounds like she has no nostalgia for Huafang.

"That's good. Now you come with me first, and I'll find you an inn to stay in. Then we can plan better."

Zhirou responded with joy, packed her bags, then smiled at Xue Yao,

"Grandpa, I'm ready, let's go."

Only now did Xue Yao realize that Zhirou didn't even know his name.

"Miss Zhirou, you don't even know my last name, how dare you come with me."

Zhirou's smile was very bright, and there was a shadow of her previous life in a trance,

"Benefactor saved me twice, if he wanted to harm me, he would have done it long ago. If benefactor is willing, can you tell Zhirou's name, and Zhirou will repay you in the future."

"My surname is Xue, and my single name is Yao. As for the matter of repaying favors, there is no need to mention it. Chivalry matters are not meant to be repaid."

Zhirou looked at Xue Yao's eyes, which were as bright as stars, and bowed her knees, "Thank you Brother Xue for saving your life several times, Zhirou has nothing to repay..."

Xue Yao quickly helped her up, he was really afraid that she would say the words of 'promise with your body', "We will discuss this matter later, let's leave here first."

In front of her savior, Zhirou naturally obeyed her words, "Brother Xue is in charge of everything."

The two quietly walked to the cabin, a group of people in the hall were drinking lively, the boat was already some distance away from the shore, Xue Yao used lightness kung fu, and directly brought Zhirou to the shore.Then he found a remote inn and settled her down.Only then did I turn back to Jinghua Palace.

It was late at this time, and the lights in the palace were dimming.Before Xue Yao went out, he had already told Huzi that he had something to do tonight and asked him to rest by himself, so there was no light in the room, and he probably fell asleep.

Xue Yao was restless in his thoughts, and wanted to talk to someone, but saw the faint light in Jing Yi's room, and the people who stayed up in the middle of the night probably had something on their minds, thinking that it would be better for two people to figure it out. Okay, so I lifted my foot and stepped in.

Jing Yi was sitting behind the desk writing. Xue Yao glanced at it and saw that it was in gilt-lacquered lower script again. He knew in his heart that what Jing Yi was worried about must have something to do with the Queen Mother.One must be calm when writing, and Xue Yao is inconvenient to disturb, so he just watched quietly.

The original intention was not to disturb, but unfortunately, Jing Yi wrote a few words, put the pen on the pen holder, sighed but did not speak.

Xue Yao rubbed his chin in embarrassment, "Did you bother Your Highness?"

Jing Yi sniffed his nose, and snorted with some disgust, "The wound is not healed, so go drink flower wine, you are romantic."

This person really belongs to the dog, Xue Yao inexplicably thought of the Jade Dragon Xuecong in the Empress Dowager's Palace, precious and cute.He suddenly didn't want to eat dog meat hot pot.

It's just that he doesn't recognize the word romantic.

"Your Highness, are you kidding me? Where does the word romantic come from?"

Jing Yi had an expression of knowingly asking, and said, "The smell of rouge on your body is too strong, which makes me unable to calm down."

"Oh," Xue Yao poured a cup of tea, which was just the right temperature, neither hot nor cold, and handed it to Jing Yi, "Your Highness, if you are really calm, you won't be disturbed at will, but what happened to the Queen Mother?"

Thinking that Xue Yao got the point right away, Jing Yi's face darkened slightly, and he got up and went to the window, where the fragrance of flowers wafted from the window, blowing away the already faint sandalwood.
