After Chu He hurriedly left the palace, he rode a fast horse almost instinctively and galloped towards the place where he had been separated from Yuan Feng.

Unexpectedly, on the way, he met Yunxiao, who was left behind by Zhao Ling, who was supposed to protect Chu Xingyue's safety.

"Yun Gongzi, why are you here? What about Satsuki? Did he go back to the capital with you? ”

Calculating the time, Chu Xingyue should not have come back at this time, so the moment he saw Yunxiao appear, Chu He almost subconsciously asked Chu Xingyue's whereabouts and whereabouts.

Yunxiao didn't expect to see Chu Shizi before he met the prince, considering the deep relationship between their brothers and sisters, there was nothing to hide, and said: "If you go back to the prince, the princess is worried about the safety of Yuan Gongzi, so she urgently asked her subordinates to ride a fast horse back to Beijing first, urging the prince to hurry up and save Yuan Gongzi." ”

"Yuan Gongzi, Yuan Feng?"

Chu He's eyebrows were raised, and he grabbed Yunxiao's arm tightly, and asked, "What the hell is going on?" Yuan Feng really had an accident, didn't he? Where is he now? I'm going to save. ”

Yunxiao looked at Chu He in embarrassment, "But the princess confessed, this matter can only be told to the prince, should the prince really know?" ”

"Nonsense, Yuan Feng is also my friend, my friend is suffering, how can there be any reason to ignore it? Besides, your prince is cleaning up the mess in the palace now, how can you have time to save people? Let me do it, tell me, where is Yuan Feng at the moment? ”

Yunxiao also knew that the time to save people was urgent, and after thinking for a while, he made a decision privately: "Okay, then the subordinate will tell the son; According to the princess, Yuan Gongzi was caught by Zhuo Lang in the dense forest cave near Longquan Temple outside the city, and that cave is likely to be the cave where the princess was captured by him last time. ”

"Longquan Temple outside the city......" Chu He muttered the name of the place, "Okay, I know, I'll go and save people." ”

After saying that, Chu He patted his horse and left.

Seeing Chu He rushing towards the city gate like a ball of fire, Yunxiao stared for a moment, and only reacted after a while, slapped his head fiercely, and secretly scolded himself for being confused.

What a cunning person Zhuo Lang is, even Yuan Feng can follow his way, it is not difficult to guarantee that Chu Shizi may also encounter accidents, look at this Chu Shizi alone, single-handedly to save people, in case there is really something wrong, then how can he explain to the princess.

Yunxiao hurriedly kicked the stirrup, raised the horsewhip and whipped it on the horse's buttocks, and then rushed quickly in the direction of the palace, he had to report this matter to the prince, so that the prince could quickly send someone to support Chu Shizi.

Besides, Chu Xingyue, she did hand over the matter of saving Yuan Feng to Zhao Ling at the beginning, and she also got Zhao Ling's promise that she would rescue Yuan Feng as quickly as possible.

However, not long after Zhao Ling left her on the front foot, she ran into a finch that was kept by Yuan Feng as a pet on the way back to the capital.

Looking at the finches that never left Yuan Feng's side without permission, anxiously chattering around her, although she didn't understand the beast language, she also knew that as a pet, if it wasn't for Yuan Feng's real fatal problem, it would never leave its master.

Now her body is really depleted, if she opens the eye of heaven again, I am afraid that before she can see clearly, she will run out of sperm and blood and die; Therefore, she can only pin her hopes on Zhao Ling.

Although she knew that Zhao Ling had to deal with a tricky problem at the moment, she still hoped that he could spare a little time to help her save Yuan Feng, so after making a decision, Chu Xingyue asked Yunxiao to return to Beijing quickly, informing Zhao Ling that Yuan Feng's matter could no longer be delayed, she was very worried, if it continued like this, I was afraid that Yuan Feng would not be able to wait for them to come to rescue him and suffer first.

It's just that Chu Xingyue is really anxious, and after Yunxiao left for half a day, she couldn't sit still anymore, so she simply took two palace guards left by Zhao Ling, and rode to the capital not in a hurry, but galloped all the way to the direction of the dense forest of Longquan Temple outside the capital.

Although she believed that Zhao Ling would definitely save Yuan Feng, Yuan Feng's status in her heart was always different, if she couldn't see him safe with her own eyes, she wouldn't be able to be uneasy in her life.

And Yunxiao rushed to the palace all the way to find Zhao Ling, but the news he got was that the prince went to Zhou Guifei's Quewei Palace.

At this moment, in the Quewei Palace, Zhou Yanran was dressed in a long dress, her long black hair was coiled high to make a flying fairy bun, the golden step sway, and the vermilion earrings were even more beautiful and beautiful jade embellishment of her crystal jade skin; The delicate facial features are even more beautiful after the thin makeup is painted.

is really worthy of being a concubine who has been favored in the harem for three years, and Zhou Yanran's appearance is indeed something that few women can compare.

And the palace attendants who are waiting up and down the Quewei Palace can feel that today's concubine Niangniang seems to be in a very good mood, with a smile on the corners of her eyebrows and eyes, and even the red lips covered with lipstick have been hooked upward.

The palace attendant, who had been waiting outside the Quewei Palace at the order of the concubine, saw a tall and noble figure coming, and the joy on his face was immediately conveyed to the bottom of his eyes, and after a happy snort, he quickly rushed into the palace, knelt on the ground and reported to the concubine Niangniang who was sitting in front of the dresser.

"Niangniang, His Royal Highness King Ling has come down."

The peach comb that Zhou Yanran held in her hand was immediately put down by her, and she couldn't hide her excitement and trotted out with her skirt outside.

As soon as she ran out of the dormitory, she saw the person she was most concerned about walking in from outside the hall with long legs.

In fact, she has been very worried about him since they separated, although she heard that he has taken control of the court, but the hundred-legged insect is not stiff, and Jiang is the kind of ruthless woman, she is still worried about whether he will encounter other dangers; So I was very uneasy, until I saw him appear in front of her in a good manner, and a worried heart fell down.

Zhou Yanran looked at Zhao Ling with a smile on her face, with a strong affection between her eyebrows and eyes, and when she saw his dark eyes, she couldn't control herself, and rushed forward and threw herself into Zhao Ling's arms, holding his thin and powerful waist tightly with both arms, and pillowed it on his chest, "I've always been worried about you, but I know that you will definitely win." ”

Zhao Ling looked at the woman who almost hugged him tightly in his arms, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and then he put his hand on Zhou Yanran's shoulder and pushed her away little by little.

"This king has something to say to you."

Zhou Yanran is naturally not an ordinary silly white sweet girl, she knows very well what Zhao Ling wants to say when she takes the initiative to come to her.

She also knows very well what she should do now is in her best interest.

I saw her slowly take out a jade pendant from her arms and present it to Zhao Ling: "Lord Wang, do you want to return this jade pendant?" ”

Zhao Ling stared at the jade pendant that was placed in the palm of Zhou Yanran's hand, the jade pendant was not very big, nor was it very exquisite, but those who knew Zhao Ling knew that this jade pendant belonged to him, and he had worn it since he was a child, even if she had a strong relationship with Chu Xingyue, she reached out to him to ask him to play, and he never let Chu Xingyue really touch it.

Just because this jade pendant is the only thought left to him by his biological mother Concubine Yang Niangniang in this world.

It's just that this jade pendant, which should be inseparable from him, why is it in Zhou Yanran's hands at this moment?

Zhou Yanran saw that although Zhao Ling was silent, he also knew that he had guessed his thoughts, sure enough, he never thought of being with him, nor did he ever think of leaving his Princess Ling, at that time, he handed over this jade pendant to her, it was just an expedient measure, and he wanted to take the edict away from her hands.

Now that the situation is under his control, he naturally came to her to ask for this thing back.

In this matter, if an ordinary woman meets him, she will definitely fight with him, and may even do things that cry and make trouble, but she Zhou Yanran is Zhou Yanran, who is a hundred times smarter than ordinary women, and she clearly knows what kind of character the man in front of her is.

At this time, if she dared to mess with him, he would dare to take something and turn his head away, and she would have to come up with another way to make him have to accept her.

She had already given too much for him, and there was no reason for her to retreat when she saw victory.

Zhou Yanran's eyes flashed with wisdom, and she looked at Zhao Ling with longing and hope, and said, "Lord Wang, do you know how hard I worked to get that edict of succession?" In order to get it, in order to hand it over to you, I almost didn't even want my life, knowing that the entire palace was controlled by the Jiang family's people, but I still waited for you at the gate of the capital alone, and handed over the edict to you; Why am I doing this, don't you know? ”

"I know that there is only your Princess Ling in your heart, and I never want to take her place in your heart, as long as I can stay by your side quietly and see you all the time, I am already satisfied; I won't compete with her for you, I won't let my presence get in the way of your eyes, are you not willing to let me fulfill such a humble wish? ”

As she spoke, Zhou Yanran looked at the jade pendant in her hand, and the trace of affection in her eyes was almost impossible to ignore.

"I know very well how important this jade pendant is to you, it is a relic left to you by your mother, and it is one of the most cherished things in this world, so I ask you to bring such a token to show your sincerity; In front of your mother's relics, I believe that you will not deceive me with lies, and I believe that even if you don't like me anymore, for the sake of what I have done for you, you will look at me twice; But I didn't expect that even in front of your mother's relics, you still chose to deceive me. Lord Wang, you should already know that I admired you when I was a girl, loved your heroic appearance, and loved you for doing what you said, but I didn't expect that one day you would go back on your word and break your word with me. ”

Zhou Yanran lowered her head, it really seemed that she had suffered a lot of love and deception, which made Zhao Ling, who saw this scene, feel very uncomfortable.
