From Chu Xiuyi's words, Xiao Ruoxi could almost guess that the person who was following them must be from the Hanwang Mansion.

Chu Xiuhan, Chu Xiuhan, what kind of people are you raising here! Someone has moved on your concubine's head.

Xiao Ruoxi secretly shook his head in his heart, thinking that if such a situation would occur, there must be something wrong with Chu Xiuhan's management method.

However, Xiao Ruoxi didn't have the heart to discuss the problem of Chu Xiuhan's management method at the moment, and the top priority was to solve the current problem of being followed as soon as possible.

"So what do we do now?"

Xiao Ruoxi looked at Chu Xiuyi and asked.

"Don't worry! I'll help you get rid of him. ”

Chu Xiuyi gave Xiao Ruoxi a confident smile.

Seeing Chu Xiuyi's confident appearance, Xiao Ruoxi unconsciously felt at ease, she didn't know why, anyway, her intuition told her that Chu Xiuyi was a person worthy of her trust.

Chu Xiuyi took Xiao Ruoxi and instructed the coachman to drive the carriage to turn left for a while, turn right for a while, and within a moment, he drove out of the official road and entered a nameless path, but the person behind him was still chasing after him.

"What should I do?"

Xiao Ruoxi saw that she couldn't get rid of the person behind her at all, so she couldn't help but ask Chu Xiuyi with some concern.

"Don't worry, it's okay."

Chu Xiuyi patted Xiao Ruoxi's shoulder and comforted.

"Coachman, stop ahead."

Chu Xiuyi suddenly commanded the coachman.

After stopping the car, Chu Xiuyi took Xiao Ruoxi out of the car, turned around, gave the coachman a big ingot of silver, and said:

"You keep running in the carriage, just go around the city, don't stop, and you can go back in the evening."

"Howler! Don't worry, Childe, you will do it. ”

The coachman took the big ingot of silver and smiled from ear to ear, which was almost the money he earned in a year's carriage! This big family is just refreshing, isn't it just for him to run outside the city in a carriage! That's simple.

After getting the coachman, Chu Xiuyi took Xiao Ruoxi and hid in the grass on the side of the road.

After a while, they saw a man in black on horseback passing in front of them and following the direction of the carriage.

After about half a cup of tea, Chu Xiuyi confirmed that there was no danger, so he walked out with Xiao Ruoxi.

"What now? The carriage is gone, how can we get back to the city? ”

Xiao Ruoxi looked at the direction in which the carriage was leaving, and said their current problem.

Hearing this, Chu Xiuyi didn't say a word, but silently took out the signal flare he was carrying and sent it towards the sky.

"Wait! Someone will be here soon. ”

After sending the signal flare, Chu Xiuyi comforted Xiao Ruoxi.

"You just said you'd have to wait a few hours!"

What does it mean to be fast? I want to fool her again, it took them two or three hours to get out of the city and get here, and now they are bringing rescue troops from the city, even if it is a thousand miles, it won't be anywhere sooner?

"What's going on in your head?"

Seeing through Xiao Ruoxi's thoughts at a glance, Chu Xiuyi stretched out his index finger and poked Xiao Ruoxi's head, saying:

"Seeing the signal I sent, there will be reinforcements coming from here, not from the capital."

Chu Xiuyi kindly explained.

"Oh."

Xiao Ruoxi nodded a little embarrassedly, but at the same time sighed, people with great power are good, there are people everywhere, and in an emergency, as long as there is a signal flare, someone will come over immediately.

Anyway, waiting here is waiting, Xiao Ruoxi simply found a place and sat down.

"Ruoxi, have you ever regretted marrying my third brother?"

Chu Xiuyi also walked to Xiao Ruoxi's side and sat down next to her, but this question made Xiao Ruoxi stunned.

Regret? I don't know if the second miss of the Xiao family has regretted it, anyway, she must be dissatisfied, she crossed over inexplicably, and inexplicably had an extra husband, and she didn't even feel the marriage ceremony, so she became a wife directly.

She is nominally Princess Han, but in the palace, she is not as good as a concubine, how can she be satisfied.

"What about regret? Can I leave my husband behind? ”

Xiao Ruoxi said casually while playing with a dog's tail grass.

I didn't expect Xiao Ruoxi to be so direct, and even Hufu could say such a thing, Chu Xiuyi was really taken aback by Xiao Ruoxi's upright temperament, but he quickly recovered and said:

"Throughout the ages, only a man can divorce his wife, how can there be a woman who divorces her husband."

Chu Xiuyi said it seriously.

"Feudal."

What Xiao Ruoxi hates most is this kind of unequal treatment, why can a man divorce his wife, but a woman can't divorce her husband.

"You men can have three wives and four concubines, and there are six courtyards in the harem, why do women have to follow only one man in their lives, and even the man has the final say if they want to leave."

Xiao Ruoxi said very angrily, and after saying something, he said that Chu Xiuyi was powerless to refute, Chu Xiuyi felt that what Xiao Ruoxi said seemed to be quite reasonable, this is the case, in Chu State, which man is not three wives and four concubines, but that is just someone else, he Chu Xiuyi has never had such an idea.

"I won't have three wives and four concubines, I will only find the woman I identify and live a lifetime." Chu Xiuyi directly said what he thought in his heart.

"Tsk, it's really strange, if anyone marries His Royal Highness King Yi in the future, it will really be a blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes?"

Xiao Ruoxi said ridiculously, in such a feudal society, Chu Xiuyi is in a high position, what kind of woman does he want, but he has such pure thoughts, it is really rare.

Being praised by Xiao Ruoxi like this, Chu Xiuyi couldn't help but blush, but it was only for a moment, and he quickly adjusted.

"Do you know why my father would marry you to the third brother?"

In order to avoid embarrassment, Chu Xiuyi began to change the topic.

"Where do I know that?"

Xiao Ruoxi said very frankly, but when Chu Xiuyi asked this, she also understood, it turned out that she was assigned to marry! It's no wonder that Chu Xiuhan was so cold to her, it turned out that he didn't bend her willingly, he was forced by others.

Wait, finger marriage? Assigned her to Chu Xiuhan, and Xiao Ruolan was assigned to the crown prince Chu Xiuran, is there any conspiracy? Xiao Ruoxi suddenly felt as if she had smelled the smell of conspiracy.

"The third brother and the crown prince are the smartest and most capable of all the children of the father......

Chu Xiuyi opened his mouth and said lightly.

Speaking of this, Xiao Ruoxi knows what it means even if he is stupid. She can only say that she really made a good move today.

In order to prevent his son from fighting for power in the future, the emperor turned to one side and simply assigned his two daughters to the two sons who were most valued and most likely to ascend the throne in the future.

In this way, if Prime Minister Xiao Cheng defects to either of them in the future, he will inevitably harm his daughter, Xiao Ruoxi has to admit that the emperor is really well-intentioned.
