These days, Jiang Zhen and Bai Xiaofu are taking turns to keep vigil, one person can only sleep for half the night, today Jiang Zhen goes to bed in the middle of the night, Bai Xiaofu sleeps in the second half of the night, Jiang Zhen looks at the simple circles made of blowing chicken intestines, there is an unknown emotion flowing in his heart, people can't catch it, can't think clearly, but it's very comfortable, Jiang Zhen doesn't know when to identify Bai Xiaofu as his own, and even when he is in a bad mood, it's like hearing Bai Xiaofu's voice, so sometimes Jiang Zhen deliberately shows some fragile expressions, Although I know that what Bai Xiaofu said may not be so pleasant, I just want to hear it, I want to hear Bai Xiaofu comfort himself and care about himself.

Looking at Bai Xiaofu who was curled up on the carpet and sleeping, his fair little face reflected the faint moonlight, his dense and long eyelashes covered up the blue and black under his eyes, and his red little mouth was glowing with a layer of water, slightly open and snoring slightly. Jiang Zhen stretched out his hand and attached it to Bai Xiaofu's forehead, revealing a shallow smile.

A minion? What's that, as long as he has been faithful to himself, he will treat him well. Thinking about it, he stood up, walked to Bai Xiaofu's side, squatted down and picked Bai Xiaofu up, and gently put him on the couch.

It was dawn, Jiang Zhen didn't seem to notice that Bai Xiaofu was sleeping on his couch, acting very calmly, Bai Xiaofu couldn't ask anything, so he had to wait for Jiang Zhen to wash up and get dressed, the ancient clothes were very loose, today Jiang Zhen was going to sea with many coastal defense soldiers, Jiying's father-in-law also specially instructed him to change into a Chinese dress that symbolized the identity of the prince, which was just convenient to hide the chicken casing clothes worn inside, Bai Xiaofu also put two thin bamboo poles in Jiang Zhen's saber, the bamboo poles were cut very thin, and the middle was hollowed out, so that Jiang Zhen can breathe underwater.

As soon as Jiang Zhen walked out of the door, Jiying greeted him, saluted Jiang Zhen, and said respectfully: "After all, Your Highness is inspecting the customs and being with all the soldiers today, and there is an inner servant waiting all the time, for fear of damaging the majesty of the royal family. ”

Jiang Zhen was shocked, when he was in Tumu Mountain, Jiying was suspicious and wary of Bai Xiaofu, and now he will leave Bai Xiaofu alone, how can Jiang Zhen rest assured, Jiang Zhen pretended to be a hanger, frowned slightly, and said dissatisfiedly: "If you don't bring an attendant, if the prince has something, he can't do it himself, this can't be done." ”

Ji Ying did not back down, and insisted: "As a prince, the fourth prince still has to think more about the dignity of the royal family, and it is indeed inappropriate to bring a useless chamberlain. ”

Jiang Zhen's face changed suddenly, and he gritted his teeth and said: "The father-in-law is too wide, whether to bring it or not is the prince's business, when will it be the turn of the slave to point fingers." ”

Jiying only said: "The slave knows." And he withdrew. When he left, he glanced at Bai Xiaofu meaningfully.

Just as he was about to leave for the dock, a big dog came out of nowhere, pounced on Bai Xiaofu's calf, and dragged Bai Xiaofu around on the ground.

Bai Xiaofu was also taken aback by this sudden situation, and the subsequent stinging and falling made him can't help but scream, hearing Bai Xiaofu's scream, Jiang Zhen turned his head suddenly, and saw Bai Xiaofu clutching his bitten calf with both hands, biting his lips with his teeth to endure the scream that was about to burst, and there were two tears hanging in the corners of his eyes, Jiang Zhen almost couldn't control himself and rushed over, endured it alive, and ordered the attendants who followed him to save Bai Xiaofu, and Jiying's father-in-law stood straight on the side, Although Jiang Zhen was very anxious in his heart, he didn't show half a point on the surface, but the hand hidden in his sleeve was clenched tightly.

After nearly a quarter of an hour, Bai Xiaofu's calf was rescued from the dog's mouth, one leg was still bleeding, and the ground was also covered with Bai Xiaofu's blood, Bai Xiaofu lay on the ground with a pale face, Jiang Zhen controlled his emotions, and waved his hand to let a few people who were originally Zhao Ji's subordinates take Bai Xiaofu down for treatment.

Jiang Zhen never felt that the time of a quarter of an hour was so long, watching Bai Xiaofu struggle on the ground with great effort, but did not cast a look of help to himself, Jiang Zhen let out a heart-wrenching pain, obviously he had just promised to be good to him last night, Jiang Zhen felt that he was really incompetent. Obviously, he can't even protect himself, and he is ashamed to protect others, even a minion himself can't protect himself.

Jiang Zhen sneered and looked at Jiying, "My father-in-law really took great pains for the dignity of the royal family. ”

Ji Ying bowed his head slightly to Jiang Zhen and said calmly: "Your Highness, the slave doesn't know about this matter. ”

Jiang Zhen snorted coldly and said, "It's just a minion, but Lone only brought this one minion, and without him, he had to let Jiying's father-in-law serve Lonely, and his father-in-law wouldn't be unwilling." ”

Ji Ying bowed slightly and said, "The slave obeys." ”

Jiang Zhen held his hands tightly, controlling the urge to kill Jiying, and now he could only separate Jiying, so that Bai Xiaofu should still have hope of saving himself, hoping that when he came back, Bai Xiaofu was still waiting for him.

Bai Xiaofu asked several guards to carry them to the pharmacy and asked the doctor to dispense more medicine for himself, and the doctor carefully bandaged the wound for Bai Xiaofu, and gave Bai Xiaofu twice as much as Bai Xiaofu according to Bai Xiaofu's instructions, and also gave Bai Xiaofu a large bottle of anti-inflammatory and hemostatic medicine applied to the wound according to Bai Xiaofu's request.

Bai Xiaofu didn't let a few guards follow him all the time, but found an excuse to send them to drink. He limped back to the lower place, took all his money, went out in a small alley and bought clothes from a beggar for money, dressed himself like a beggar, bought a peddler's mule to pull the cart, gave the peddler a sum of money, and let the peddler pull himself to the village where he lived first. Sitting on the mule cart, Bai Xiaofu thought of Jiang Zhen, I am afraid that he will never see Jiang Zhen again, and I hope that Jiang Zhen will go well in the future.

Bai Xiaofu hid in the village for three days, and no one came to chase and kill him, on this day the hawker told Bai Xiaofu that the four princes and his party had set off to return to Beijing, Bai Xiaofu asked about the situation of the four princes, and the hawker said in an accent: "I can see clearly, the big ship is miles away from the shore, and I saw the four princes standing by the side of the boat with his little chamberlain." After a while, I got into the boat. That's it

The four princes are many miles better than when they first came, and they are still smiling and waving to the people. ”

Bai Xiaofu's heart was full of doubts, he had obviously escaped, who was the servant beside Jiang Zhen? Was Jiang Zhen pretending to find someone to cover up his escape? Jiang Zhen doesn't have anyone he can trust in Loulan, is he the one who has found a replacement for him in a short period of time? The biggest suspicion is that Jiang Zhen is obviously pretending to be a gentleman, may he smile kindly at the people? Is that person really Jiang Zhen?

So if that person is not Jiang Zhen, then who is it? Where did Jiang Zhen go? Bai Xiaofu's heart is very chaotic and empty now, since he left this feeling, the cage that binds him no longer exists, as long as he escapes the chasing soldiers sent by Jiying, he will be free in the future, and he will no longer have to grovel and be frightened, but he feels empty, as if he has cut off the connection with the past, and he will have no future. The connection between himself and the world is Jiang Zhen.

Bai Xiaofu carefully analyzed the connection between this matter, why did Concubine De give Jiang Zhen the opportunity to go out for inspection this time, obviously she didn't care about Jiang Zhen in the past few years, and even gave up Jiang Zhen. The emperor agreed to send Jiang Zhen to inspect the customs because he wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of Jiang Zhen in case his relatives were too powerful, but he was rescued by Jiying's father-in-law, so if Jiying really sincerely protected Jiang Zhen, then now that Jiang Zhen has changed, will Jiying not doubt it? What a smart person Ji Ying is, if he doesn't doubt it now, it means that Ji Ying knows about it, and even the executor of this matter is Ji Ying.

A clear thought slowly appeared in Bai Xiaofu's mind, stealing beams and changing pillars, this fourth prince is fake, the real Jiang Zhen may have died, as soon as this thought appeared, Bai Xiaofu couldn't help but feel heartache, this is not what he wants to see, if Jiang Zhen really died on the boat, then he can't even find the body, just like his father in his previous life.

Tears were about to burst out of his eyes, Bai Xiaofu didn't believe it, he didn't believe that Jiang Zhen died like this, he was obviously working so hard, so eager to be loved, how could God be so cruel. Jiang Zhen will not die, he has obviously endured so much injustice and humiliation, how could he die before the great cause is accomplished, yes, he will not die!

The peddler looked at Bai Xiaofu's ever-changing expression, and felt that Bai Xiaofu might be suffering from some disease, so he kept calling Bai Xiaofu's name, but Bai Xiaofu didn't hear a word. Just when the peddler wanted to go to the barefoot doctor in the village, Bai Xiaofu stood up suddenly, hurriedly sorted out the few things, went out and rode the mule he bought from the peddler, and left. Bai Xiaofu wants to find Jiang Zhen as soon as possible now, if he wants to see people dead or dead, if he can't find the body, then Jiang Zhen must still be alive.

It was getting dark, Bai Xiaofu rushed to the dock where he sailed that day, the dock was empty, the cold sea breeze blew people's faces hurt, Bai Xiaofu asked the night watchman which boat was the fourth prince took that day, the man looked at Bai Xiaofu who was wearing a beggar's uniform with disgust, and pointed to the big boat docked on the side with disdain, Bai Xiaofu endured the pain and walked to the boat, the night watchman ran over to drive Bai Xiaofu away, Bai Xiaofu sat on the side of the road in a daze, thinking that if Jiying just pushed Jiang Zhen off the boat, With what he prepared for Jiang Zhen, Jiang Zhen may be able to escape.
