The third day after Gu Li left.

Mu Qianxia is still as usual every day, reading, eating, sleeping, never saying superfluous words, and never asking about anything.

"Princess, there is a market not far ahead, we will not continue to rush today, if the princess has something she wants to buy, you can tell the people below to do it, if you want to go shopping, I will accompany you." Shuo Feng said respectfully to Mu Qianxia outside the carriage.

During this time, Mu Qianxia spent the day in the carriage, and only went out at night because he had to stay in the inn. Therefore, when hearing Shuofeng's words, it is false to say that he is not impressed.

Mu Qianxia was silent for a long time, and said softly: "I will park at the market in a while, I want to go down and shop."

"Good. Princess, I'll accompany you. ”

"No need, I want to go shopping by myself, don't worry, since I promised Gu Li, I won't leave." Mu Qianxia said coldly.

"Princess, my subordinates didn't mean that, but it hasn't been peaceful lately, and my subordinates are following you to protect your safety."

"Okay." Mu Qianxia did not continue to be persecuted because of this problem, because she knew that no matter what she said, Shuo Feng would do what he wanted, and his respect for herself was only based on Gu Li.

…………

By the time they arrived, it was already evening, but the market was not as dark as the morning star, but the streets were bustling with people.

After getting off the carriage and traveling all the way, Mu Qianxia felt the prosperity of this small city. The avenue is full of brilliant lights, the voices of people are boiling, the staggered bargains in the wine shops, the shouting of the market shops, the chatter in the teahouse, and all kinds of voices converge into Mu Qianxia's ears, but Mu Qianxia does not feel noisy, but enjoys this lively atmosphere. She has never been a person who likes to be quiet, and the more lively she is, the more alive she feels. Xu is because he was reborn once, so this feeling is even stronger.

The things sold here are different from what she saw in the capital before, with more ethnic customs and characteristics, which is very in line with Mu Qianxia's preferences. And the people here are very enthusiastic, although she doesn't know the people here, everyone will greet her warmly, so, after an hour, Mu Qianxia bought a lot of things, if it weren't for Shuofeng's hands really can't take it, I'm afraid she can continue to buy it. Moreover, after this shopping, Mu Qianxia felt that she liked it here, although she was a foreigner to them, but their enthusiasm made her feel like she was returning to her hometown, and it also made her no longer so strange to Dongqin.

Xu is enthusiasm of the people here infected her, and Mu Qianxia's mood also became very good, revealing a smile that she had not seen for so long. On the way back to the inn, Mu Qianxia took the initiative to chat with Shuo Feng.

"Shuofeng, I haven't had time to ask you how you got out of the fire at that time? At that time, you were obviously already ......" Mu Qianxia finally said the questions that had accumulated in his heart.

"If you don't feel the arrival of the child, the subordinates will definitely try their best to save the princess from leaving. But after the son came in, the subordinates knew that the son was there, and the princess would leave safely. So his subordinates sealed their senses with internal force, slowing down their heartbeat to reduce the inhalation of smoke and dust, but this state looked like death to ordinary people. After you leave, your subordinates leave through the back window before the house collapses. ”

"And where did you go after that?"

"I went to the prince and acted as a messenger between the prince and the prince."

"That, do you know, Gu Li, where did he go?" Mu Qianxia hesitated for a moment, but still asked.

"The eldest prince Gu Chenjing and Gongzi have never dealt with each other, the two have been fighting openly and secretly for many years, in the eyes of outsiders, Gongzi is not out of the house, in fact, everything in the world is in the hands of Gongzi. This time, the prince went to Xichu to do things, and the eldest prince took advantage of the absence of the prince to make a big move in the capital, and we were also uprooted by the eldest prince a lot. Childe left this time because he received news from the capital, saying that the eldest prince had sent a large number of killers to intercept and kill Childe, so that Childe could not arrive in the capital safely. Although there were quite a few assassins before, they were all secretly dealt with by our secret guards. But the closer you get to the capital, the stronger the assassination becomes, and the higher the martial arts of the assassins sent, which is no longer something that ordinary guards can handle. In order to keep the princess from being harmed, Childe left alone and lured the assassins away. When we get to the vicinity of the capital, Childe will join us. For now, we just have to follow the route that Childe planned before, and ignore the rest. ”

It turned out that he had left in a hurry to lure away the Assassins, and now that she had lost her usefulness, and was even a nuisance to him, why did he treat her so well, out of guilt, or ......

"Stop, don't think about it anymore." Mu Qianxia kept telling herself in her heart that people like Gu Li would not have feelings, and she should stop being amorous.

"How long do we have to get to the capital?"

"If nothing else, we will be able to arrive in the capital in three days, and we will be able to meet Childe. It's just that after arriving in the capital, the princess needs to be more cautious. In the eyes of outsiders, although Childe seems to ignore the world and has no quarrel with the world, there are many people who want his life. In the capital, there may be traps at every step, and if you are not careful, you may have to worry about your life. If you can't do it step by step, you will be swallowed by a quagmire like the capital, and there will be no scum left. It's not like you had a brother to protect you before, there, you can only rely on yourself, even if you have a son to protect you, there will always be places that can't be protected, so you must be careful in everything, and no one should believe it. ”

"I know. The capital has always been a place where people eat people and don't spit out bones, let alone the royal family? When I arrive in the capital, I will be cautious, what to say, what to do, what to know, what not to know, I know in my heart, you don't have to worry. ”

Shuo Feng smiled slightly, he knew that the princess had always been a smart person, and there were some things that he didn't need to say too clearly.

"Princess, the inn has arrived, we will rest early today, and we will continue our journey early tomorrow morning."

"Okay."

…………

In the dead of night, a full moon hangs high above the night, shedding a glimmer of light to illuminate the way forward for those who are on the move.

"Who?" As soon as Mu Qianxia woke up, she felt someone enter her room.

"Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, don't be excited, I was sent to rescue you from here." The comer chuckled.

"Leave? Why should I leave? Since you know who I am, and you know the purpose of my trip, how can I leave so easily. Mu Qianxia said coldly.

"Doesn't the princess want to know who asked me to come and save you?"

"I'm not interested."

"Hahahaha, interesting, so interesting, I like it, it's not in vain that I worked hard to come here." The visitor laughed.

"If Your Excellency is fine, Princess Shu Ben will not be able to accompany you. I have to hurry tomorrow morning, so I'll go to bed first. Mu Qianxia said lightly.

"Her Royal Highness the eldest princess doesn't need to be in a hurry, it's not too late to listen to the contemptible people, and you won't be delayed for long." The visitor laughed.

"Say."

"It's your good friend, Hanyan, who has come to the contemptible people."

"Cold smoke? How could it be him?" Mu Qianxia muttered to herself.

"This is what he entrusted to the contemptible person to pass on to the eldest princess, if you don't believe it, this is his token, he said that you will believe what the contemptible man said after you read it."

Mu Qianxia took the letter and a piece of jade pendant in the hand of the person who came over with half a doubt. That jade pendant is indeed a personal thing of cold smoke, and the handwriting in the letter is indeed written by him.

Mu Qianxia read the letter carefully, and the gist of the letter was as follows:

Asa Xia, this person is specially entrusted by me to take you away. Although you don't say it, I know that deep down in your heart, you don't want to be a pawn in the marriage between the two countries, and you don't like the intrigue and deceit of the royal family. I know that you yearn for freedom, for a peaceful and peaceful life, and that the person in front of you can achieve everything that your heart desires. For the rest, you don't have to worry too much, I'll take care of everything, you just have to follow your heart.

After reading the letter, Mu Qianxia fell into deep thought. Hanyan said that it was indeed what she was thinking. In her heart, she really yearns for freedom and peace, she hates the royal family's deceit, hates their lofty faces, and hates their careless life, she really wants to leave.

"Why wasn't anyone noticed when you came in just now? Could it be that you ...... them all" Mu Qianxia asked.

Before Mu Qianxia finished speaking, the visitor interrupted with a smile, "The eldest princess is inevitably too contemptible." The contemptible people came alone, how could He De be able to kill all the people outside. Not to mention the guards outside, none of the people who are secretly hermits are simple. Fortunately, the contemptible person did something in advance, otherwise, how could he see you the eldest princess so easily, and how could he stand here and talk to you for so long?"

"How long have you been with us?"

"Three days. During these three days, I have carefully studied your routines and eating habits, so that the contemptible people can use their food and drink without realizing it. Rest assured, Princess, they won't wake up easily, and by the time they find out you're gone, we'll be gone. Princess, have you thought it through? If we hesitate any longer, we will have a better chance of being caught. Princess, if I were you, I would not be entangled, although I said that I would enjoy endless glory and wealth, but I think it would be more important to get up and my own life. Moreover, there is only one opportunity, and if you miss it, you will no longer have it. Even if he is captured by the people of the Third Prince, he will not do anything to you, if you can really take this opportunity to go out of tune, your fate will only be in your own hands. ”

I have to say that what the person in front of him said was very tempting, and Mu Qianxia fell into a tangle.
