Chapter 52: Farewell
In the autumn dusk, the western sky is glowing with gold, and the white clouds are dyed one by one, layer by layer.
Dongfang Luoyu sent Lan Zijin back to the palace, and when he got off the carriage, Lan Zijin hugged him tightly and refused to let go.
"Zijin, I'll come to see you often." Dongfang Luoyu stroked her hair and said gently.
"No, don't forget what you promised me."
Lan Zijin said that, jumped out of the carriage, and walked towards the house without looking back.
After entering the mansion, Lan Zijin asked the guard guarding the door: "Where is Dongfang Luoqi?" Haven't come back yet? ”
"Girl, the prince came back at noon and went out again."
"I see."
After returning to the house, he simply packed his luggage and left a letter on the table, which was addressed to Dongfang Luoyu.
He went to Dongfang Luoqi's room again and put another letter written to him on the tea table. And took away his sword and waist card.
came to the stable, fed Chiye some forage, touched its head and said, "Chiye, you have come with me for a hard time." ”
With that, he got on his horse and left through the side door.
The guard at the side door asked her where she was going.
She didn't reply.
It was getting late, and the red night was galloping very fast, probably after staying in the stable for a long time, missing the sky outside.
"Red Night. Hold on, we're out of the royal city tonight. Lan Zijin sat on the back of the horse and patted Chi Ye's head.
Today, she thought a lot about it on the way to Guanshan with Dongfang Luoyu.
She couldn't implicate Dongfang Luoqi, so she decided to go to Nangong by herself.
When he arrived at the city gate, Lan Zijin showed the soldiers guarding the city gate Dongfang Luoqi's waist card, the gate was open, and Lan Zijin galloped away.
Chiye couldn't run anymore, so Lan Zijin got off the horse and led it slowly.
Fortunately, there was a town not far from the royal city, and she led Chiye to an inn.
The owner of the store saw Lan Zijin's waist card at a glance, welcomed her in with a smile, and arranged an upper room.
"Boss, my horse wants the best forage and clean water." After entering the room, Lan Zijin put the saber on the table and said to the boss.
"No problem, what else does the girl need?"
"Bring me a jug of wine, and some of your best meal."
"Well, wait a minute." The boss said that he took the door and left.
Lan Zijin sat in the room and looked at Dongfang Luoqi's waist card, which was engraved with his name, these four words were insignificant to the former Lan Zijin. But now, she sees him as a close friend.
In this world, she doesn't seem to have many friends.
"Girl, the meal is ready." The boss said after knocking on the door a few times.
"Come in."
The boss was followed by a girl, the two walked in with food, and walked to the table, the girl stared at Dongfang Luoqi's waist card on the table, Lan Zijin saw this and asked, "What, do you know this brand?" ”
"I don't know." The girl buried her head and whispered.
"Girl, let's go first, you use it slowly." The boss took the girl and left.
Lan Zijin poured a glass of wine, just wanted to drink, then felt that the aroma of the wine was wrong, even if the general wine aroma was very strong, it would not be mixed with sourness, the only silverware around her was Dongfang Luoqi's waist card, after sensing that the wine was wrong, he immediately picked up a piece of meat and rubbed it on the waist card, and sure enough, the sterling silver waist card gradually turned black.
There is a problem with this shop! Lan Zijin immediately thought that when she first entered the store, the boss helped lead Chiya to the stable, since they intended to harm her, then Chiye's situation must be very dangerous.
Lan Zijin tied his luggage and put it on his back, wiped his waist card and put it in his clothes, picked up his sword, jumped downstairs from the window and began to quietly look for the stable.
The courtyard was pitch black, and he couldn't see the surroundings clearly, Lan Zijin shouted softly: "Chiye, where are you?" ”
After shouting a few times, she heard the cry of the red night, Lan Zijin hurriedly walked to the source of the sound, the red night was eating grass, she picked up a wisp of the grass that the red night ate and put it under her nose and smelled it, but she didn't smell anything abnormal. I saw Chiya arch her with his head and take the grass in her hand, as if Lan Zijin wanted to grab its grass to eat.
Lan Zijin shook his head helplessly, and said softly: "Chiye, I didn't see it, so stingy, do you think I'm going to rob your grass?" I'm here to help you see if there's any poison in this grass. As stupid as your master! After that, he touched its head and said, "Chiye, you eat more, and we will leave quickly after eating." ”
On the other hand, the boss took a few people to eavesdrop outside Lan Zijin's door for a while, but did not hear any movement, the boss made a look at everyone, led by a strong man knocked open the door, everyone walked in quickly but found that the door was empty, and the window was open.
The boss looked around and said, "She hasn't run far yet, chase me." ”
Lan Zijin heard the sound of banging on the door, he knew that something was wrong, and pulled Chiye and walked out, but Chiye refused to move, still chewing the hay slowly, Lan Zijin persuaded: "Chiye, hurry up, the enemy is going to catch up!" ”
Chiye heard the word enemy, and immediately followed Lan Zijin out of the stable, Lan Zijin turned over on the horse, Chiye galloped out, and hurriedly stopped in front of the door.
Lan Zijin got off the horse, pushed the door, and found that the door was chained, drew his sword out of the sheath and waved it towards the chain, and the iron chain and lock fell one after another, Lan Zijin was surprised, he didn't expect this Dongfang Luoqi's saber to be so easy to use! It's like sharpening iron like mud!
As soon as the deadbolt was opened, a group of people rushed over with torches behind him, and the boss slowly walked over and said, "Girl, where are you going?" You haven't paid for your meal yet! ”
Lan Zijin held the long sword in his hand, his eyes were sharp, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, who are you?" How dare you poison your food! ”
"What a smart girl, no wonder Prince Luo Qi loves you so much."
"Luo Qi? Pamper me? I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding here. Lan Zijin was puzzled.
"If he didn't love you, how could he give you his beloved horse, his waist card, and even the sword given by the king?"
The sword given by the king? No wonder it's so sharp! Lan Zijin chuckled lightly and said, "This sword waist card and BMW were not given by him, they were stolen by this girl, how can you talk about the word pampering?" ”
"Hmph, just with your little girl, you can go in and out of the prince's mansion at will and steal such an important thing under the guard of the guards? Less bluffing! Tell you, even if Dongfang Luoqi likes you now, you will be abandoned in a few days! ”
Lan Zijin stroked his hair and said, "Then what do you want?" ”
"Either give me the sword and the waist card, or you die!" The boss said, and a group of people behind him slowly approached Lan Zijin.
Lan Zijin looked at them disdainfully, a slightly cold smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and said, "I don't care what grievances you have with Dongfang Luoqi, what falls into my hands is mine, how can it be justified to give it to others?" ”
