After He Xinxian left, Zhao Hongrun did not delay and took the guards to Yuqiong Pavilion.

Ordering the guards to keep watch in the garden outside the Yuqiong Pavilion, Zhao Hongrun entered the Yuqiong Pavilion alone.

As soon as he stepped into the front hall, he saw that Princess Yulong was sitting in the hall bored, holding her cheeks and not knowing what to think about.

Obviously, this princess did not know that she was about to be married by the Son of Heaven to the capital of Chu thousands of miles away.

"Sister Huang." Zhao Hongrun called softly.

Princess Yulong, who was interrupted in her reverie, raised her head when she heard the voice, and said anxiously: "Hongrun, you are here, what's the matter lately, your Zongwei didn't come to send me Xinxian's letter." ”

"Is it my Zongwei who won't send it?" It was He Xinxian who didn't have the heart to write a letter at all."

Zhao Hongrun smiled faintly, didn't explain, took Princess Yulong's hand and walked towards her bedroom.

Princess Yulong was surprised, but seeing Zhao Hongrun's solemn face, she didn't want to ask in detail, so she had to let him pull her into the bedroom.

The two entered the dormitory, Zhao Hongrun turned around and closed the door, and immediately whispered to Princess Yulong: "Sister Huang, I have to tell you something, but you promise, don't scream." ”

Princess Yulong nodded inexplicably.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun handed her the letter of informant.

Princess Yulong glanced at Zhao Hongrun suspiciously, spread it out, and in an instant, her face was discolored, and she subconsciously covered her mouth, her face full of disbelief.

"How could it be...... How could it be ......," she muttered in disbelief.

After a long time, she raised her head, with the only remaining glimmer of hope, and reluctantly smiled: "Hongrun, you are joking with the imperial sister, right?" It has to be like that, right? ”

"......" Zhao Hongrun was silent.

Seeing his appearance, a trace of sadness flashed in Princess Yulong's eyes, and the whole person collapsed to the ground as if her bones had been pulled out.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun hurriedly helped Princess Yulong to the couch.

"I should have known the ......" was helped by Zhao Hongrun to sit on the edge of the couch, and Princess Yulong smiled miserably.

After a long time, she asked with a wry smile, "When did it happen?" ”

"About ten days ago. …… But right now, the envoys of the Chu State have arrived in Yongqiu, and they are about to arrive in Daliang in the near future. ”

He ...... He also knew? ”

Zhao Hongrun naturally understood that Princess Yulong was referring to He Xinxian, and nodded.

Seeing this, Princess Yulong's face was even more gloomy, and she murmured with a wry smile: "No wonder there have been no letters in the past few days......"

Zhao Hongrun gently patted her back and comforted her: "Let's leave this matter aside for the time being, Sister Huang, I'll ask you something now, and you have to tell me truthfully." ”

"What's the matter?" Princess Yulong barely managed to laugh a little.

I saw Zhao Hongrun pondering for a moment, and asked in a low voice: "Sister Huang and He Xinxian, how far have you two developed?" ”

"Huh?" Seeing that Zhao Hongrun suddenly asked about this, Princess Yulong turned slightly red for no reason, but after an instant, she smiled bitterly with a bleak face: "Until now, what are you talking about?" ”

"Sister Huang, don't interrupt me. …… Tell me, how far have you two developed, are you not marrying or marrying? ”

"How can you say this to Hongrun...... ...... like this" Princess Yulong bit her lip and retorted shyly, and whispered, "I just think he ...... He looks pretty good......"

"So is the imperial sister willing to follow him?"

"With?"

Seeing that Zhao Hongrun said "with" instead of "marrying", Princess Yulong seemed to have guessed something, and a few hints of incredible surprise and relief flashed in her beautiful eyes: "He...... Could it be ......"

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun explained his agreement with He Xinxian to Princess Yulong in detail, and handed over a brief letter left by He Xinxian before leaving to the latter, which finally made Princess Yulong, who was bleak in Huarong, recover a little blood.

He ...... Will you leave the door behind for me? Looking at the things agreed in the letter, Princess Yulong muttered to herself, obviously a little moved.

After a long time, she took a deep breath: "I'm going." ”

She had obviously made up her mind, but the question was, how to get there? Without help, she wouldn't even be able to get out of the palace gate.

Involuntarily, Princess Yulong set her eyes on Zhao Hongrun, but opened her mouth several times, but she couldn't say a word.

Because she understood that if Zhao Hongrun secretly helped her, once their father found out about it in the future, her younger brother would definitely be punished.

She didn't want to implicate her brother, who had been so good to her in the past, because of her own reasons.

Seeing her embarrassed expression, Zhao Hongrun said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will help you." ”

"......" Princess Yulong looked at Zhao Hongrun with some emotion, and said hesitantly: "However, the father will blame your ......"

"Blame it, blame it, Your Highness has always been accused of being stubborn, and it's not bad this time. …… I also don't want the only royal sister in the palace who has a good relationship with me to marry Chu and be separated from heaven and water. ”

Princess Yulong suddenly felt warm in her heart, and said with sincere gratitude: "Although I still don't understand, why you have always been so good to me. But...... Thank you, Hongrun. ”

『……』

Zhao Hongrun was silent for a moment, then smiled slightly, and said in a low voice: "Without further ado, let's go!" …… If it is delayed, it will not be able to get out of the city gate. ”

"Hmm." Princess Yulong nodded nervously and hurriedly changed her clothes.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun stepped out of the Yuqiong Pavilion, summoned Zongwei Mu Qing, and said, "You go out of the palace first and drive the carriage outside the palace." ”

"Yes!" Zong Wei Mu Qing nodded.

"Gao Kuo, planting tricks, you go with Mu Qing. …… The rest, follow me. ”

Zhong Zongwei nodded in agreement.

Stepping into the Yuqiong Pavilion again, it happened that Princess Yulong's personal palace maid Cui'er was coming up with tea. Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun gave Shen Yu a look.

Shen Yu understood, walked in front of Cui'er in a few steps, clasped his fists and arched his hands: "Offended." ”

After that, before Cui'er could react, he stepped forward and raised his palm to slash Cui'er's neck with a hand knife, knocking her unconscious.

"Tie it up." Zhao Hongrun commanded.

Zhong Zongwei had already known the plan, and they were not surprised, so they walked into the pavilion separately, stunned the palace maids in the Yuqiong Pavilion one after another, tied them up with ropes, and stuffed cloth balls in their mouths.

After a while, Princess Yulong changed her clothes and walked over from the dormitory, and was shocked to see that several palace maids in her bedroom had been knocked out and tied up.

"Hongrun? …… What do you guys do here? ”

"I'm saving them." Zhao Hongrun turned around and explained: "If this is not the case, the imperial sister is missing, and these people will definitely be severely punished." …… Walk! ”

With that, he took Princess Yulong's arm and walked straight out of the Jade Qiong Pavilion.

On the way to the palace gate, Zhao Hongrun caught a glimpse of many eunuchs near the Yuqiong Pavilion.

He knew this: these eunuchs must be the little eunuchs sent by his father to monitor the movements of the Yuqiong Pavilion.

"Huh? Hongrun, someone called you. ”

And Princess Yulong, who didn't know what was going on, noticed that some little eunuchs nearby were chasing after her, shouting "Your Royal Highness Eight" while chasing.

"Don't look back."

Zhao Hongrun whispered a word of advice to Princess Yulong, and the steps under his feet were faster.

The group hurriedly came to the palace gate, and Jin Ju, the commander of the guards guarding the palace gate, saw the eighth prince Zhao Hongrun and his party coming from afar, and he was really a little puzzled in his heart.

"It's all this hour, and His Royal Highness the Eighth is still going out of the palace?"

muttered incomprehensibly, Jin Ju was about to step forward to greet the eighth prince, but he didn't expect that Zhao Hongrun was a little abnormal today, and he ignored him at all, and directly left the palace with a group of people stepping on the point of closing the palace gate, and Jin Ju looked inexplicable.

After leaving the palace, he didn't go far, and there was Zong Wei Mu Qing waiting in a carriage with an atmosphere.

This carriage was borrowed by Zhao Hongrun a few days ago when he asked the guards to go to King Yong's mansion, after all, he Zhao Hongrun was only a little famous in the palace, and as for Daliang, his reputation was far inferior to that of King Yong's reputation.

If you use King Yong's carriage to carry Princess Yulong out of the city, the idlers will never dare to stop them.

For this reason, Zhao Hongrun also asked Zong Wei to borrow a token from King Yong to enter and exit the city gate, as long as there are no special circumstances, even if the city gate has been closed, you can also use this token to enter and exit the city gate of the beam.

Sure enough, with the carriage and token of King Yong's reputation, Zhao Hongrun and his party left Daliang without any danger and headed towards Shili Pavilion in the southern suburbs.

However, among Zhao Hongrun's guards, there were Wei Jiao, Lu Mu, and Zhou Pu who stayed, because Zhao Hongrun instructed them to wait outside the gate of He Mansion, and as long as He Xinxian went out of the mansion, he would hand over a fast horse that had already been prepared and was also borrowed from Yongwang's Mansion to He Xinxian.

At the same time, when Zhao Hongrun had already slipped out of Daliang City with Princess Yulong, He Xinxian also finished dinner with his family.

Perhaps this will be his last meal in the family.

But just as he returned to his house and was about to sneak out of He Mansion with his packed bags, suddenly there was a knock on his door.

He Xinxian was shocked, and hurriedly hid his bags in the futon, and opened the door of the house with some weakness.

To his surprise, outside the door were his father He Yu, his mother Zhang, and his grandfather He Xiangxu.

"Grandfather, father, mother." He Xinxian saluted them one by one.

"What are you doing? Why do you look flustered? Father He frowned and glanced at his son, and asked suspiciously.

After all, He Xinxian was only an eighteen-year-old young man, and he was planning such a shocking thing as abducting the princess, so he was naturally flustered in his heart, and reluctantly said when he heard the words: "Child...... The child didn't do anything. …… I wonder what happened to my grandfather, father, and mother? ”

"Come on." Father He seemed embarrassed to speak, said something to his wife Zhang, and looked around in the room.

Seeing this, Zhang pulled his son to the bed and sat down, and said kindly: "That's the case, Xinxian, for my mother, I think you are not young anymore, it's time to find a daughter-in-law, these days my father-in-law and your father have asked for some portraits of women of appropriate age in the court, that is the daughter of the minister of the court, you come to take a look, see if there is a suitable one." ”

As he spoke, Zhang pushed the futon and was about to spread out the portrait in his hand.

Unexpectedly, she pushed the futon, but she touched He Xinxian's bag hidden in the futon.

"What is this?"

Under He Xinxian's shocked gaze, Zhang opened his bags curiously.

"Smack."

King Yong's token fell from the open bag and fell on the ground next to the couch.

He Xinxian suddenly felt that his whole body was stiff.

"Huh?"

Father He walked over in surprise, picked up the token and put it in his hand to look at it carefully, and his face changed slightly.

"Xin Xian, why do you have the entry and exit order of His Royal Highness King Yong?!"

He Xinxian opened his mouth and was speechless.

"PS: I'm going out at night, so I'll send it first, so that some readers won't be anxious to wait. In fact, He Xinxian is the same, just a supporting role to promote the plot~'
