The men were also in groups of three or five, each with a high spirit, and when their eyes inadvertently met a woman, they showed a shy smile unique to young people, and then they were teased by their companions.

Because it was the Qingqing Festival, no one rode in a carriage or horseback, and all of them walked to the suburbs with friends.

Chu Nian walked out of the Hou Mansion with several daughters of the Chen family, and Chu Yuanlang was also called away by the friends he met after coming to the capital.

When I arrived in the suburbs, there were already men and women gathered together, playing with the flowing water, and some were flying kites, and there was laughter.

Suddenly, the crowd was quiet for a moment, then boiled, and they all gathered in one place.

"Oops, it's Lord Shen and General Liu over there, I didn't expect them to come too!" One of the daughters of the Chen family exclaimed, her face crimson.

Lord Shen Dui, General Liu Qi, young talent, holding real power, countless women's dreams Langjun.

Chu Nian's blood was so strong that he almost couldn't control himself, and it wasn't until he saw Shen Duan sitting in a wheelchair from a distance that he regained his smile.

Why are they flattered by everyone, but their Su family is ashamed to be mentioned? Why does God have no eyes and let this kind of person live well? Crippled by gunpowder, that's fair!

Chu Nian smiled coldly, but in the end, his mood fluctuated, and he was a little sullen, so he simply said goodbye to the Chen family and walked to a place where there were few people, and in order to relax quietly, he didn't let his subordinates follow.

But who knows, when passing through a dense forest, several people suddenly rushed out of the grass, covered her mouth with a cloth, and dragged her in.

Everyone surrounded Shen Du and Liu Qi, this side was far away and remote, and no one noticed it at all.

Chu Nian knows martial arts, but this body has never learned martial arts, and she has been recuperating for a long time, and she has not practiced much strength, so she immediately fell into the way.

She was shocked, hated her carelessness, and knew that it was useless to struggle, so in order to suffer less, she simply left them at their mercy.

In the end, she was blindfolded, I don't know where she was taken to, those people were very professional, they all covered their faces, they didn't speak, and they didn't give her a chance.

When she finally stopped, Chu Nian smelled a faint fragrance of cold plums, and her eyes suddenly turned cold, this was the smell of Luo Shilang's body, she would not admit it.

"Little slut, you also have today!" Luo Shilang deliberately lowered his voice, but Chu Nian still heard that it was him and didn't say anything.

Luo Shilang was resentful, and began to tear Chu Nian's clothes, scolding and scolding: "It's all at this time, and you still pretend to be high!" ”

Chu Nian quietly adjusted the angle of his arm, his right hand was facing Luo Shilang, calculating the time in his heart, preparing to release the hidden weapon in his sleeve at the best moment.

"Bang bang bang!"

At this time, there was a sudden sound of a human body falling to the ground, and before Chu Nian could react, the pressure on his body suddenly lightened, and at the same time, the black cloth on his eyes was taken off.

The light was dazzling, and it took Chu Nian a while to get used to it, and when she opened her eyes, she found that this was the depths of the dense forest, Luo Shilang and his men fell to the ground and didn't know whether they were alive or dead, and there was a handsome man standing in front of her, and the man looked at her with cold eyes.

Prince Mingxiu!

Chu Nian was taken aback, and said that the prince was a waste and only knew how to have fun, but the person in front of him was clearly strong in martial arts and had sharp eyes, how could he look like a waste?

But he looked at Chu Nian's eyes so cold, he must have found that she was a little familiar, guessed that she was the daughter of a family, and regretted saving her.

Chu Nian was apprehensive for a while, she inadvertently learned this person's secret, for fear that he would kill people and kill him.

"Thank you for saving me, the little woman is grateful." In a hurry, she simply pretended not to recognize Ming Xiu and was making plans.

But who knows, the man's eyes moved slightly, his voice was low and touching, and he said lightly: "You don't recognize Lonely?" ”

Solitary! The prince of a country claims to be the prince of a country, what does he want to do? Unexpectedly blew up his identity!

Chu Nian's pupils constricted for a moment, her back stiffened, she fell to the ground in a panic, and her tone was uneasy: "The third daughter of the courtier's Weiyuan Marquis's Mansion, she has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, please forgive His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

She behaved like an ordinary lady, weak, harmless, and in the face of the awe of the royal family, trying to minimize her danger.

But Prince Ming Xiu looked at her silently, the more silent he was, the more stiff Chu Nian's body became.

"Huh!"

Finally, he chuckled.

In Chu Nian's sight, his black turquoise boots approached, and then pinched Chu Nian's chin with his slender fingers, forcing her to raise her head.

There was no trace of human emotion in his eyes, and he looked at her condescendingly like a hunter looking at his prey.

Nervousness, fear, involuntary trembling......

Cold sweat broke out on Chu Nian's forehead, her heart was beating fast, this person was very dangerous, this was her first reaction.

This is an involuntary alarm when the body is faced with a strong danger, just like a rabbit encountering a lion, which is completely natural surrender.

"Prince...... Your Highness ......"

Chu Nian's voice was a little dry, as if she was terrified to the extreme, her eyes were wet and she looked at Ming Xiu, her eyelashes couldn't stop trembling, and she looked very harmless.

Ming Xiu suddenly laughed, his laughter was very low, as if it came from his chest, and said, "Wei Yuanhou was that waste, but he gave birth to a smart daughter." ”

By now, Chu Nian had already understood that this person might not allow himself to fool around like this, so he simply stopped pretending, straightened up and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your praise, the courtiers dare not be ashamed." ”

"Oh?" Ming Xiu watched her change with interest, and suddenly asked, "I'll help you kill them?" ”

They refer to Rajuro and his men.

Chu Nian wasn't sure if this was a temptation and test for her, and she didn't have time to think about it, so she seized the opportunity and said: "Kill him, it's too cheap, the courtiers want him to watch the general's mansion be uprooted." ”

Arrogant words, if they are said by other people, others will hear them, and they are afraid that they will not know the height of the sky, but these two people, one said it seriously, and the other listened carelessly.

But Chu Nian knew that the General's Mansion belonged to the prime minister's faction, the prime minister was a relative, the elder brother of the queen mother, and the emperor and the crown prince were puppets, Ming Xiu must be happy to see this, Chu Nian wanted him to understand that he still had use value and left her life.

Sure enough, Ming Xiu pondered for a moment and said, "If you can't do it, I will kill you myself." ”

When Chu Nian heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that it was okay for the time being, and solemnly bowed: "Please rest assured, His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

Ming Xiu didn't speak, looked at her deeply, and turned to leave.

Watching the figure gradually disappear into the depths of the dense forest, Chu Nian's tense expression relaxed a little, and the beating in his chest gradually subsided, patting the dust on his clothes and standing up. The looming killing intent from Prince Ming Xiu really made her panic for a while.

Now that she is alive again, she doesn't want to die, let alone dare to die.

After being stunned for a long time, the cry of an unknown bird pulled Chu Nian back to her senses, and she turned her eyes slightly, Luo Shilang's body was lying on the ground again and again, his chest was slightly undulating, and his face was still frozen with that disgusting lewd smile.

Prince Mingxiu is not a fool, but he hides it very deeply, Su Nian had suspected this matter in his previous life, but now it seems that the truth is far from as simple as she once suspected.

has been pretending to be stupid for more than ten years, what is he afraid of, is it ...... Dowager?

Chu Nian frowned, her gaze skimmed over Luo Shilang's "corpse", a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes, could it be that she retreated step by step to show mercy to her subordinates, but was regarded as a person who could be bullied?

When he returned to where everyone was, Chu Yuanlang was greeting people, looking around, and when he saw Chu Nian who had returned, he said goodbye to his friends and came in a hurry.

"Where did the third sister go, but it's easy to find it for my brother."

Chu Nian only smiled lightly: "There are a lot of noisy people, I went to find a quiet place to rest for a while, what is the big brother looking for me?" ”

Touching his nose in a sneer, Chu Yuanlang said softly: "It's not that I haven't been able to see the third sister for a long time, and I'm a little worried about my brother." Then I saw him straighten his face, as if he had taken out the prestige of being a brother: "The third sister still doesn't want to mess around, the security in this suburb is not as good as in the city, so it's better to be careful." ”

Seeing the faint worry in Chu Yuanlang's eyes, Chu Nian couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, when she was still Su Nian, her brother was also so concerned about it, and asked her to relive her life before she saw the warmth and coldness of the so-called big family, Chu Yuanlang was so sincere, but it made her feel extremely rare.

Chu Nian lowered his eyes slightly, "Brother Xie cares, I know, but my body is not very comfortable today, and I am about to leave, and I am planning to inform my eldest brother." ”

Chu Yuanlang frowned, seeing that her little face was indeed a little pale, he nodded and said:

"The third sister will go back in the carriage, and I will take my friends to send me back."

Chu Nian nodded in thanks, Chu Yuanlang summoned the little servant, said a few more words of safety to her, and turned to leave.

When she arrived at the herb garden, Mother Zhu was taking care of the flowers and plants in the yard, and when she saw Chu Nian, she looked surprised, "Why did the third lady come back so early?" Isn't the countryside fun? ”

Chu Nian shook his head and said, "Does Mother Zhu know that there is a village not far from the city?" ”

"Village?" Mother Zhu put down the kettle in her hand and thought, "But that mountain village? I've heard some rumors that the ......"

After listening to the first half of the sentence, Chu Nian already knew what Mother Zhu was going to say, and waved his hand to interrupt her words.

It's nothing more than a rumor in Beijing, saying that there are dragons raging in the mountain village, and the whole village is full of stupid people.

"If Mother Zhu is free, come with me."

The next day, Chu Nian and Zhu's mother went out of the gate of the Chu family, and now Xiao Chen's family was locked up by the old lady, and the power of the house fell into the hands of the Liu family, the Liu family seemed to want to show favor to Chu Nian, in the past, Chu Nian wanted to go out and was repeatedly troubled by Xiao Chen's family, but now he just said hello to the Liu family, and the Liu family prepared the coil and the carriage.

It is obviously a village next to the capital, and the capital is prosperous, but this mountain village is just a desolation.

She looked around, turned around and called the coachman to wait at the entrance of the village, and then entered the village with Zhu's mother, and with her memory, she effortlessly found the third home at the entrance of the village.

The house in front of me is still a mud house made of loess, and the roof is a damp yellow grass.
