Chapter 22: Escape
"Why are you going out?"
Seeing that Lu Tiance began to loosen his mouth, Lu Zhu was secretly happy in his heart, but he pretended not to care on his face: "I miss my mother and want to go to her." ”
Midori didn't lie, she wanted to find the body of her mother. There are too many things she wants to know, such as why she wants to give Ji Fuxi a trick, why she is cold on a full moon night, what is the agreement between her mother and him, and what is her bet with him...... She had a hunch that when she was found, a moment of doubt would clear the clouds and see the moon.
"What you can't find, she's been gone for years."
Over the years, Ji Fuxi has not sent people to look for her, but it is also in vain, how can she be found by a woman who only understands medical skills?
"Not necessarily!" Lu Zhu raised his eyes to face him, the same words, the same confidence, but said to different people.
"In a word, do you help or not?"
The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the firm eyes of the green beads, blooming with a resolute and scorching beauty.
……
Dusk is always gloomy, fog fills the land, and dim daylight gives way to darkness.
The afterglow shines through the lowered bamboo curtain, and the little bit of light should shine on Ji Fuxi's face, reflecting a kind of quaint haze. He just stood quietly, looking out through the gap in the bamboo curtain, as if there was a heart in the courtyard, even though he was already familiar with it.
There was an occasional pain in my heart, but it seemed to be covered up and pressed into my chest.
Just let her go? Where should that agreement, that gamble, be placed? and his parents, the entire Murong Dynasty, she is the most important bargaining chip for the restoration of the country.
Obviously it was inevitable, and he had already held her in the palm of his hand, but at this important moment, he actually retreated and was selfish, this is the expression of the loser, it shouldn't be him, it shouldn't be him, it shouldn't be him. This wandering coward is a nuisance.
His eyes gradually turned blood-red, like a bloodthirsty devil, and with a wave of his sleeve, a purple bamboo forest in front of him had turned into ashes, and the chirping of the cuckoo just now stopped abruptly, and the world seemed to become calm at this moment.
……
Flying out of the East City Gate, the two of them rode together on the snow. Time was too short to prepare a good horse right away.
Lu Tiance raised his eyebrows, looked at Taxue and then at her, and examined it for a moment before he spoke leisurely: "It seems that I have fallen on your path again." What Yao Jinmo, if you didn't have me, you would plan to go out of the city alone? ”
Green beads are noncommittal. She had been suspicious of the bustard for a long time, why did he know every time he went to the Huancai Pavilion? She has confidence in Lu Tiance and Yao Jinmo's light skills, and it is not enough to detect it with Mowu and others. Besides, she said that she wanted to take down the brothel on the front foot, and he came to question her on the back foot, Yao Jinmo was also there that day, and it was impossible for people to listen to the corner with his light skills, and he had no motive. On the day when she was preparing to take down the Huancai Pavilion, she observed the old bustard carefully, and she clearly remembered the change in the old bustard's expression after learning that she was the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but it was enough to see for a moment, and after two days of reluctance, she agreed so simply.
Then, there is only one possibility, the boss behind the scenes of Huancai Pavilion is Ji Fuxi, and allowing her to take advantage of this to spy on her. Now, even if he knew, he would probably only chase after him at the West City Gate, and by the time he realized it, she had already fled far away.
"Demon, you whip lightly, if you hurt my family and step on the snow, I won't be done with you." This horse is really of the highest quality, and it was not easy to get it from Yao Jinmo's hands. Green beads have always been very protective of the baby.
Lu Tiance glanced at the green beads with contempt, and did not speak, but he swung his whip fiercely, stepped on the snow and hissed, and the speed under his feet was a little faster.
"Hey, demon, did you hear me!" Lu Zhu was distressed for a while when she heard this, and reached out to snatch the reins from Lu Tiance's hand, she was reluctant to spoil this demon with this baby.
"If you want to be caught now, you can rob it."
In a word, it is to fix the hand that the green bead is about to reach, it is not that she is timid, but her equestrian skills are really not good compared to him, and at this point, if she is caught, it is about a lifetime of freedom.
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, a touch of dark color crossed the sky, like a meteor, fleeting. At the beginning of night, today's capital seems extraordinarily quiet.
West City Gate.
The long hair was a little messy by the strong wind, a strand of broken hair fell in front of his eyes, and his eyes were cold with eagerness, Ji Fuxi was still wearing a dark robe, standing in front of the car, but he didn't see the familiar pale green figure.
"What about her?" As indifferent as ever, but with anxiety that is difficult to hide. It's like a time bomb that can kill people at any time.
"Young Master, I don't know what's going on, the young lady and I obviously agreed to meet at the gate of Xicheng at dusk, but there is no trace of the young lady until now." The old bustard had never seen such a gaffe Ji Fuxi, so he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, not daring to raise his head, and he didn't see his usual domineering appearance at all, and he was trembling when he fell to the ground.
"That's it." Ji Fuxi looked out of the city gate in a daze, but what came into his eyes was only ink-like darkness, and the redness in his eyes gradually dissipated.
"She's got a good idea." Ji Fuxi hooked his lips, as if muttering to himself, and between his sleeves, he had disappeared into the night.
After traveling for more than ten miles, he was suddenly intercepted, Lu Tiance quickly tightened the reins, and stood up with a scream in the snow before he stopped his progress, and the violent movements brought up thick dust.
"Tiance Gongzi, where are you going with the young lady?" Mo Wu held an ink-colored long sword in his hand and pointed straight at Lu Tiance.
Lu Zhu chuckled in his heart, looked at Mo Wu, and wanted to see a little eyebrow from his expression, he sent someone to chase him so quickly?
"It's not clear for a while, I'll explain it to Fu Xi another day." Lu Tiance frowned, but he didn't expect him to chase here, and he must have given up the horse in order to catch up with them. Such a long journey may have consumed a lot of internal strength.
"Don't interfere with the young master, the affairs of the young master and the young lady are not up to you." There was a little less of the usual strictness in his eyes, and a little more of a warning.
"Whisk called you?" A trace of hesitation and doubt flashed in Lu Tiance's eyes, but he held a slightly trembling little hand under the cover of the wide sleeves.
"The young master doesn't have time to pay attention to these, but as the young master's hidden guard, this is my business." Xu is a fan of the authorities, the young master has feelings for the young lady, but he doesn't know, or he doesn't want to admit it, just now the young master destroyed the purple bamboo forest that has been planted for decades in a fit of anger, and he has never seen such a gaffe since he followed the young master. He came just because he didn't want today's decision to become the regret of his life.
