The nine princesses of the East Palace

A Niang said, she asked someone to pretend to be a caravan to go to Danchi, and let Adu and I mix in it, so that people could be deceived. She also asked Heshi to lead someone to meet us on the road. Heshi is the number one warrior in Danchi. Martial arts are superb, if I follow him, I will definitely be able to reach Danchi safely.

The next day, A Niang arranged for someone to escort A'Du and I out of the palace.

I'm quite happy, not only can temporarily avoid the marriage, but also can go to see A Weng, I haven't seen A Weng for a long time.

However, not far away, I saw Gu Xiaowu, who was riding alone on a horse, looking at me from a distance.

He... why is he here?Are you looking for me?Today's him is very different from the previous two times I saw him. He is dressed in plain clothes and his hair is tied casually. He is not as meticulous as the one I saw in the palace a few days ago, but he looks a little more youthful.

"Princess, who is that? Why do you keep looking at him?" A'Du asked.

"No... I don't know him." I hesitated, didn't I just glance at him, why did I keep looking at him?

"Could he be the Gu Xiaowu you mentioned?" A'Du asked again.

I was about to say something when I heard her say, "Hey, why did he leave?"

I looked back and saw that he was no longer there, only his back riding away on horseback.

"Let's go! What does it have to do with me?" I pulled the rein of the little red horse, "A'Du, let's go too."

The journey was quite smooth, but when we reached Death Valley, a large number of soldiers surrounded us.

"Princess, they are Shobo people." A'Du said.

"Why are they stopping us?"

"Suobo has always been at odds with Danchi, and this place is close to the border between the two countries. They probably deliberately provoked trouble." A'Du said.

I don't know if what A'Du said is right, but there are so many of them, can we leave safely today?

"We are just a passing caravan, what are you doing?" the leader of the caravan spoke first.

A Shobo man with long beards sat on a rock at the top of the valley, looking down at us, "We don't mean anything malicious, you don't have to be afraid, it's just that we lost a slave two days ago, and we're going to take her away." Take it back."

"We don't have the slaves you mentioned here." A'Du said.

"Is there any? Let us search and find out." The man smirked, and after a while, he pointed at me and said, "It's you, you are our escaped slave, as long as you follow us obediently , they are all safe and sound."

"Don't be bloody, I'm not your slave." I think they must have failed to propose marriage to my father, so they deliberately provoked me to take me away.

The man crooked his mouth and smiled again, "A slave is a slave, so you don't have to drink fine wine if you toast."

After all, the people he led started to move.There was a fight between the two sides, and I heard that General Shobo say that he wants to catch me alive.

A'Du was fighting with those soldiers while protecting me. I don't know martial arts, and she gradually became powerless.

"Princess, hurry up, I'll cover you." A'Du said.

I know that I will only drag her down here, but I am really worried about her.

At this moment, a horse rushed out from nowhere and pulled me up. The horse galloped forward and took me far away. I was forced to sit in front of him without seeing his face. Worried that it was Shuo Bobing, he struggled hard.

"Don't move if you don't want to fall to your death." A vicious voice came from behind.I didn't want to die yet, so I stopped struggling.

And this voice was somewhat familiar, it was Gu Xiaowu.Isn't he gone?How come here.

He drove the horse and ran a long way before stopping at a lake.

I jumped off the horse, and I didn't bother to ask him why he was here. I was just worried about A'Du's safety. It's been a long time, and she hasn't come yet.

I walked back and forth several times, keeping my eyes on the front, but the front was empty, and there was no one there.

"Don't leave, I'm dizzy from your walking." Gu Xiaowu complained.

"What do you know, I have to wait for A'Du, A'Du must not be in danger." I said.

A'Du grew up with me, we are like sisters, I can't put her in danger and ignore her.

"Don't worry too much, I just saw people from the Western Territory Anhu Mansion nearby investigating something here, and they will help you when they hear the fight." Gu Xiaowu said.

"The people in the Anhu Mansion in the Western Territory don't know us, so why would they help for no reason? They might even be on Shuo Bo's side." My nervousness didn't relax a bit because of his words.

He gave me a blank look and said nothing.

I suddenly felt something was wrong, like the sound of horseshoes. I lay down on the ground and heard the sound of horseshoes. It looked like there were more than 30 horses. Our caravan didn’t have that many people, so the Shobo people must have come after them.

Gu Xiaowu poked me and pointed to the front.

Sure enough, there was a large group of Shuo Bo soldiers, and they seemed to be looking for me.

It was very empty here, and there was no hiding place at all, only a few tree branches, I ran behind the tree branches, "Gu Xiaowu, hide quickly." I said.

Gu Xiaowu frowned, instead of hiding, he drove the horse away, grabbed me and jumped into the water.

I thought to myself, it's over, I can't water, I'm going to be drowned.

As soon as I got underwater, I felt that I was no longer me. I imitated Gu Xiaowu and started to hold my breath, but I couldn’t do it at all. Get out of the water, otherwise, I will be choked to death.

But Gu Xiaowu grabbed me and prevented me from floating up. I kicked my feet and pulled his robe, trying to break free from him, but he grabbed me even tighter, like iron pincers, pinching me tightly. , unable to move.

I feel like I'm about to die. Is it possible that I, Qu Xiaofeng, will be suffocated here today?

For some reason, Gu Xiaowu leaned forward and pressed his lips against mine. His lips were cool and soft. For a moment, I seemed to have a little bit of strength again. Once I had strength, I would Want to break free from him, stinky rascal!Taking advantage of me while I was inconvenient in the water, I saved him before!Grace will be revenged.

He is so strong, I can't break free from him, hateful, too hateful.No man has ever dared to do this to me.When I get ashore, I'm going to beat him hard.

I don't know how long it took, as if I had died again and came back to life, Gu Xiaowu finally pulled me ashore.After landing on the shore, I finally didn't feel that stuffy feeling anymore, and I also gained some strength, so I pushed Gu Xiaowu away abruptly, and spat, "Why are you kissing me?"

My voice trembled a little, and I felt extremely wronged.

"I'm saving you," he said, "and, I'm not kissing you, I'm giving you breath."

"Crossing the breath... I don't need you to cross it either." I said angrily, bitterly.

"In the situation just now, if I don't breathe for you, you will be drowned."

"I don't want your kiss even if I drown." I rubbed my lips vigorously with the back of my hand, trying to wipe off all the traces he just left.

He looked at me sullenly for a while, this time he didn't say anything, just turned around and left.

"Hey, where are you going?" There wasn't even a ghost here, so I didn't want to stay here alone, so I had to follow.

"Go and find your A'Du." He said.

"Hey, slow down." How could he walk so fast, I couldn't keep up.I had no choice but to trot to keep up. Thinking of the fact that he kissed me in the water just now, I couldn't help but raise my fist and hit him a few times.

He had a dark face and didn't say anything.
