Chapter 167 But he didn't die, I can't do it
Zhaoyang passed by the bamboo garden, and with the help of the bright moonlight, he saw three people dressed in the service of guards, throwing things into the bamboo garden under the wall.
The guard clapped his hands after throwing everything away, "Let's go, these things are enough to eat for a month." ”
"Wait." Zhaoyang said in a low voice, her voice was not loud, but it was enough for them to hear.
The guard looked up suddenly, thinking that she was just an ordinary palace maid, and a trace of murderous aura flashed in his eyes.
"As long as you take me out of the palace, I won't expose you." The moonlight shone on her face, and it was as beautiful as an elf.
As if he had heard a big joke, the guard sneered and said, "You don't have a chance to expose it." ”
"Do you want to kill people, kill people and take me out of the palace, choose one of the two, obviously it is safer to take me out of the palace." When Zhaoyang said this, she saw some hesitation in the guard's eyes, and she took advantage of the situation to continue: "If you really kill me here, you will definitely implicate the Emperor Taishang." ”
Zhaoyang knew that these people who came late at night to deliver food to the imperial brother must not be bad people, and they were able to sneak in, I am afraid that thanks to Lin Shuai, who was in charge of the Imperial Forest Army, Lin Shuai managed the army well, even if they were caught, they would definitely not betray anyone.
Besides, killing themselves in Zhuyuan will not do them any good at all.
Seeing the killing intent in his eyes gradually subside, Zhaoyang immediately promised: "Don't worry, I will definitely not betray you." ”
The guards stared at her for a while, and several people looked at each other, and finally nodded, "I'll spare your life." ”
Inevitably, the timing of the bamboo garden was too long, and the deeds were revealed, and they left the bamboo garden with Zhaoyang, who was very familiar with the terrain in the palace, found the weakest place in defense, and climbed over the high palace wall with them, and successfully escaped.
After doing all this, the guard asked her, "Where are you going?" ”
Zhaoyang took a deep breath, and then smiled, "This is my business, don't worry about it, let's leave it at that." ”
The guards didn't ask any more questions, and really left it at that.
In the third watch, the entire Changping City seemed to be asleep, and Zhaoyang was carrying a thin soft back, and suddenly he didn't know where to go.
She wanted to find Wang Zhiyao, but she didn't know where he was.
I don't even know if he's dead.
Zhaoyang took a deep breath, just raised his foot, "hiss-" gasped, and suddenly felt a terrible pain in his ankle.
She still twisted her foot, and the ankle was swollen.
The pain made her eyes red, but she didn't cry in the end.
Now she's the only one, and who can she show cowardice.
Zhaoyang took a deep breath, suppressed the grievances and sourness in his heart, and then limped forward.
The ankle was swollen even more, and the shoes and boots were propped up, Zhaoyang couldn't help but think at the moment, such a small injury hurt so much, how much it hurt for those who were seriously injured on the battlefield.
The moment an arm is missing, is it painful to die?
She ended up at the General's Palace.
Chu Ruojun was sleeping, and she heard someone gently knocking on her window and whispering to her.
She woke up suddenly in her sleep, instantly grasped the hilt of the sword in her hand, and said in a deep voice: "Who! ”
"It's me, Zhaoyang." A clear voice replied.
Chu Ruojun breathed a sigh of relief, and a hint of surprise appeared on her face, and she said in a low voice, "Wait a minute." ”
She hurriedly got up in her clothes, lit a gauze lamp on the table, and opened the door, still with a surprised expression on her face: "Zhaoyang? ”
The princess stood outside the door and grinned at her.
"It's me." She was wearing the clothes of a palace maid, and she also had a small cloth bag on her shoulder, and she escaped at a glance.
Chu Ruojun paused for a moment, then opened the door to the maximum and let her in.
Zhaoyang walked in with a limp, looked around, and praised: "Your home is so beautiful." ”
Chu Ruojun bolted the door, her eyes fell on her, Zhaoyang seemed to have lost some weight, his face was a little pale, and his eyelashes still had a little moisture, Chu Chu was pitiful.
"What happened?" Chu Ruojun was very keen, "You escaped?" ”
"It's so late, I'm disturbing you." Zhaoyang apologized softly, "But I'm here, I just want to ask Wang Zhiyao about it." ”
"Your feet ....." Chu Ruojun frowned, took off her shoes and boots, looked at the red and swollen ankles, and her eyes darkened, "Bear with it." ”
Zhaoyang nodded.
Chu Ruojun poured the liquor into the palm of her hand, then rubbed it and covered her ankles, the hot feeling under her hand made her heart feel a touch of distress.
Swollen like this, how did she come to the General's Mansion.
Chu Ruojun pursed her lips, smeared her with the medicinal wine that had been bruised, and finally said softly: "About Wang Zhiyao, what does the princess want to ask, just say it." ”
Zhaoyang put on his shoes, looked up at her, and said softly: "I remembered everything about Wang Zhiyao, but the emperor decreed that I should marry Zuo Yuankun." ”
Hearing this, Chu Ruojun was not much surprised.
"That day, Zuo Yuankun and I went out of the palace to play in the temple, and encountered an assassin on the mountain, Zuo Yuankun fell off the cliff, and Wang Zhiyao jumped down and carried him up step by step." Zhaoyang said, and his eyes turned red all of a sudden.
"He was injured and couldn't bandage one arm, Zuo Yuankun helped him, I kept looking at them, and suddenly I heard movement behind me, looked back and found nothing." Zhaoyang said very clearly, "When I turned back again, Wang Zhiyao was gone, he was injured, and it was impossible for him to walk so fast." ”
Chu Ruojun panicked in her heart, and her voice was full of disbelief, "Could it be...... Zuo Yuankun pushed him down? ”
Zhaoyang pursed his lips and didn't speak for a long time.
Chu Ruojun frowned: "But..... Wang Zhiyao saved him, he wouldn't be such a beast. ”
"I remembered it all, remembered that the queen gave me a three-day stand, why did Zuo Yuankun appear so coincidentally after I drank this medicine."
Zhaoyang's eyelashes twitched slightly.
Chu Ruojun looked up in shock: "It's the queen again?" ”
"That's right." Zhaoyang dispensably hooked the corners of his lips, "It's her." ”
Chu Ruojun bit her lip, still feeling incredible.
There is really such a thing as forgetfulness in the world.
"Can collude with the queen." Zhaoyang's smile was full of sarcasm, "Do you think he will be a good person?" ”
Chu Ruojun didn't speak for a long time.
After a long time, she finally spoke.
"Even if Zuo Yuankun is not a good person, what can he do if he finds Wang Zhiyao?"
How?
He said that he would come back safely from the Kingdom of Jin.
But when he returned, she didn't remember him.
"Ruojun." Zhaoyang's voice was very light, "I didn't have a good start with him, and I didn't say goodbye well, I want to try hard again." ”
"Zhaoyang, he's not a secret guard anymore." Chu Ruojun said calmly, "He is the child of Zhao Wenya of the martial arts family, Zhao Zhuang is looking for him to go back, he will not come back, he asked me to tell you, just treat him as if he is dead." ”
Zhaoyang's face turned pale, and he shook his head vigorously: "But he is not dead, I can't do it!" ”
Besides, will Wang Zhiyao really covet glory and wealth?
No, no, Zhaoyang still has confidence in him.
"Zhaoyang, he's going home....." Chu Ruojun said hoarsely, "So, it's time for you to go home too." ”
Zhaoyang raised his head slightly, his face was pale, and his eyes flashed with water.
"I don't have a home......," Zhaoyang said hoarsely, "That's the palace, it's the emperor's home, not my ......"
Chu Ruojun pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.
"You tell me where he is, how can I find Zhao Wenya." Zhaoyang blinked, and suddenly hope was ignited, "I'll go find him!" ”
"Zhaoyang, don't be stupid." Chu Ruojun said in a deep voice, "Even if you find him, what can you do?" ”
Zhaoyang shook his head vigorously: "I don't know ......"
Her voice was already tinged with crying.
She didn't know what to do when she saw him, but she just wanted to see him.
Chu Ruojun looked at her stubborn appearance, and her heart softened.
She was reluctant to marry Zhaoyang to marry Zuo Yuankun, who was mixed with Shao Shifang, but she couldn't help her go to see Wang Zhiyao.
After all, he returned to the Zhao family and had enough power, so he finally didn't have to suppress and hide himself, he could live for no one, and he could have the opportunity to avenge Mrs. Zhao, who was chasing them.
Maybe he really likes Zhaoyang, but this liking is weak and vulnerable in the face of reality.
Thinking of this, Chu Ruojun sighed.
"Zhaoyang." Chu Ruojun said lightly, "Otherwise, I will help you spread the news that Zuo Yuankun is ungrateful and pushed his life-saving benefactor off the cliff, so that you can also have a reason to refuse marriage." ”
Zhaoyang trembled slightly, and his hands clenched: "But there will be the next Zuo Yuankun." ”
"That's all I can do for you."
Chu Ruojun can only help her here.
Zhaoyang smiled bitterly: "I understand, as a princess, I don't have a choice." ”
She doesn't complain, but she won't compromise because of it.
Chu Ruojun grabbed her shoulders and said in a low voice, "You blame me, it's okay." ”
She just felt sorry for Zhaoyang.
Wang Zhiyao may not be lost, but Zhao Zhuang is not simple, since he has waded through this troubled water, it is likely that it will be difficult to get out.
So, Zhaoyang, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing for you to remember and forget.
"I don't blame you." Zhaoyang's voice was soft, "How could I blame you." ”
Chu Ruojun's eyes softened, and she suddenly felt that she was very lucky.
If she falls into the same situation as Zhaoyang, she is not sure what she will do.
At the beginning, she refused to marry, and it was only Lin Shuai and her father who offended, but now Zhaoyang is pressing on the unviolable imperial order.
It would be nice if Wang Zhiyao was the son of the prime minister.
This is the sorrow of the poor family, and it is also the sorrow of the family.
The door was knocked again, and Chu Ruojun's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, if it was Bai Zhi, it would be fine, but if it was his father, he would definitely punish himself after sending Zhaoyang back to the palace.
Chu Ruojun took a deep breath and walked over slowly.
