Chapter 67: Martial Law at the City Gate, You Lose

Don't miss the opportunity.

Noya thought, the main entrance should also be unsafe, the hunchback man seems to be in his old age, drooping old, but when he returned home that day, he was obviously deaf and clear-sighted, and if he was also deeply hidden, his plan would be ruined.

She turned around this time, detoured to the back of the bamboo house, and tried to find a way to climb out of the wall from the backyard, but before she set foot in the bamboo forest, a guard in green clothes appeared in front of her quietly, like a ghost, blocking the way.

"The master explained, the bamboo forest is dangerous, please calm down and don't be impatient, don't walk around."

There are even people who keep an eye on themselves! Noah reluctantly turned around and went back to the house, closed the doors and windows, and then made an empty city plan to creep out, and before he could rejoice, the guard followed behind him in a mysterious way, and if it was repeated, he could not get rid of it no matter what.

Noah was finally discouraged and gave up her attempt to escape for the time being. She knew that although this bamboo garden was not a tiger's den in Longtan, it was an iron wall, and she was afraid that it would be difficult to escape from it.

When she was bored at noon, Noah couldn't help but have something to do. She ran to the kitchen to find a sharp kitchen knife, went to the bamboo forest to pick a few beautiful Xiangfei bamboos, sat on the ground, cut and chopped, and didn't know what she was tinkering with.

The guards got the advice of the second prince when he left, and only guarded her to prevent her from entering the bamboo forest and escape from the bamboo garden, and did not interfere with her inexplicable actions, and watched coldly, letting her toss around.

Noya hummed a little song pleasantly, the kitchen knife in her hand flew over, and after two or three clicks, she screamed "oops", threw away the kitchen knife, stood up with her wrist covered, and screamed in pain, but she was accidentally cut by a two-inch wound on the bamboo strip, and the blood flowed like an infusion.

The guard was immediately panicked and at a loss, he didn't dare to leave his post without permission, and he couldn't ignore it. Especially when he saw that Noah was already pale, he was so frightened that he almost fainted.

He weighed the two sides, stomped his feet and flew away to find medicine for Noah.

Noya, who was as delicate and weak as Xizi in Shicai, suddenly got up alive, picked up the prepared lantern, and went in the opposite direction of the guard's departure, and dodged into the bamboo forest.

As soon as I stepped in, I didn't go far, and I felt that the ground seemed to be trembling under my feet, and I heard the sound of chirping in my ears, and I knew that something was wrong, and it must have touched some mechanism.

When he was alert, his hearing was extremely sensitive, and he heard a very slight "poof" sound breaking through the air, and when he looked up, a row of sharp arrows sharpened from bamboo shot in his direction.

The more the crisis, the calmer Noah became. The bamboo forest is dense, which is not conducive to dodging, and all the formation organs, interlocking, are not single, when you dodge in a hurry, it is inevitable to touch other organs, attracting a more fierce rain of arrows.

At this time, there was a clump of tear bamboos in front of her, and she used her hands and feet to stretch the two bamboos to both sides, and then with the help of elastic force, she bounced her body behind her and fell to the ground in embarrassment.

The two bamboos also shook sharply from side to side with the help of the rebounding force, blocking the bamboo arrows seven or eight out of ten. The remaining few also lost three points of strength and shot messily on the ground, and Noah was able to avoid it.

Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the clump of green bamboo in front of his head seemed to have feet, moving to the sides, and a more dense sharp arrow broke through the air in front of the right.

Noah fell to the ground before she got up, and she was defenseless, and there was no way to avoid it.

At the moment of life and death, a white shadow flashed in front of him, and a person seemed to be a savior descending from the sky. only heard the sound of "pop", and all the sharp bamboo arrows were easily blocked by a bamboo flute in his hand, fell to the ground, and shattered into several pieces.

Noya was dumbfounded, and sighed that his kung fu momentum was like a rainbow, like a dragon, and he didn't forget his form.

"Let's go!"

The man hurriedly took two steps back, and saw that she was still stunned, as if she had been frightened out of her soul, and without saying a word, he leaned over and lifted her, grabbed her slender waist, and flew up on tiptoe, and landed on the bamboo.

Noah was shocked, only sighed "what a handsome kung fu", turned his head to look at his savior, and instantly blushed.

Chu Qingchen was dressed in white, holding a bamboo flute of Xiangfei, calm and elegant, calm and unhurried, compared to his own embarrassment, Nuoya felt very embarrassed.

She broke free from Chu Qingchen's embrace in a panic, forgetting the wound on her wrist, and the red plum blossomed at the hem of his shirt.

Chu Qingchen was silent, pulled her up, hurriedly returned to the bamboo house study, and said the same cold words: "Sit down!" ”

"I ......," she argued.

"Ansheng sit, don't move."

Noah sat down obediently, a little cramped.

Chu Qingchen took the medicine box in the hands of the guards behind him, turned his head and ordered: "Fetch a basin of clean water, it needs to be hot." ”

The guards knew that they had failed in their duties, and for fear of being punished, they hurried away.

Chu Qingchen sat opposite Nuoya with a calm face, rummaged through the box and found an application item, which was neatly placed on the table.

"You're amazing." Noah smiled wryly, unable to find words.

"You're stupid." Chu Qingchen was a little angry, and his face tightened, like frost: "Anyone who sneaks into the bamboo garden from the backyard is either a traitor or a thief, and I won't be stupid enough to use the same mechanism to welcome the younger generation." ”

Noah sat obediently and muttered, "Then this mechanism is too ruthless." ”

Chu Qingchen raised his eyes to look at her, was silent, wrung the veil from the basin sent by the guard, and ordered unhappily: "Stretch out your arm." ”

Noah shrank her hand behind her back and smiled unnaturally, "I'll do it myself." ”

Chu Qingchen softened his face, grabbed her hand, and used a handkerchief to clean up the blood around the wound little by little, and his slender fingertips were light and delicate, and he was careful.

"Are you so afraid to go back to the General's Mansion?" He asked suddenly, coldly.

Noya was stunned: "It's not that I'm afraid, it's that I don't want to." ”

"Also, although Xiao Jiu acted a little ridiculous, his temper was not violent, and it would not make you so afraid of him, he was scheming, and he would rather hurt himself than escape."

"Can you let me go, then?" Noah asked softly, her eyes full of hope.

Chu Qingchen's fingers froze: "Let you go, where are you going?" ”

Noah shook her head and lowered her head: "I don't know, let's escape from the capital first, there is always a place to stay." ”

"The city gates are under martial law. You lose. He sighed.

"Huh?" Noah was a little surprised, he had already gone back?

"Although there is no blatant search in the capital, his people are secretly searching for your whereabouts."

Noah was startled, and if it weren't for his arm being firmly grasped by him, he would have stood up in a panic.

"You want to give me to him, don't you?"

Chu Qingchen took the knife medicine from the side, and shook it on Nuoya's wound little by little, she suddenly felt pain, as if burning, and couldn't help frowning.

"I was going to do that, but now I've probably changed my mind."

Noah looked at him happily, and then a little frustrated: "He can always get news of me from the soldiers guarding the city. ”

"If he could have inquired, he would have come to the door by this time." Chu Qingchen said indifferently: "The mouths of those soldiers are quite tight. ”

Noya instantly understood that it was the second prince in front of him who helped him, and said gratefully: "Thank you." ”

"I'm just leaving you for the time being until I figure out what happened. However, with his means, I can only guarantee you for two or three days at most, which can be used to repay today's love. ”

Chu Qingchen bandaged Noya carefully, as if he was making a work of art as fine as he was doing.

"I don't want to inquire about the housework in Baili Mansion, but I think you should tell me the truth, what is your identity?"

Noya's expression darkened: "I don't know who I am, I have amnesia, and after I woke up, I was in the Qinglou, and the name that the bustard gave me was 'Lin Nuoya', and it was Bailijiu who redeemed me." ”

Chu Qingchen's subordinates gradually slowed down, as if they were thinking about something, and after a long time, they asked softly, "Are you his new concubine?" ”

Noah nodded reluctantly: "I don't have a choice. ”

"I heard that he dotes on you very much, and even offended Qin Shangshu and the crown princess for you."

Noah smiled bitterly: "Maybe." ”

She didn't want to comment on Baili Jiu's in front of this gentle man, although she knew that everything was true. Baili Jiu is kind to her on the surface, there are intentions and conspiracies, but they are just playing on the spot.

She didn't say anything, and Chu Qingchen didn't ask anymore. He lowered his head and picked up the medicine bottle on the table.

Noah was full of apprehension, like a child who had done something wrong.

"I can pretend not to know for the time being, and I won't send you back to the General's Mansion. However, if Xiao Jiu comes to the door, I have no reason to keep you. After a long time, Chu Qingchen said indifferently.

Noah's bitter little face disappeared in an instant, blooming with dazzling sunlight, and the stone hanging high in her heart fell to the ground.

"As long as the guards at the city gate are a little looser, I will find a way to sneak out of the city, and I will definitely not affect the second prince."

Chu Qingchen picked up the medicine box and walked away, his back slightly lonely.

Nuoya suddenly remembered his search for someone, and couldn't help but call him out: "Second prince! ”

Chu Qingchen turned around and looked at her with eyes shining.

"Did you find someone?"

Chu Qingchen smiled slightly: "Xin'er's girl has always been eccentric, if she sincerely wants to avoid us, it is not easy to find." ”

It turned out that her name was Xin'er, and Nuoya remembered that Bailijiu had told herself that the emperor's favorite tenth princess seemed to be titled "Xin'er", and it turned out that the dirty little girl she knew that day turned out to be a princess of a country. No wonder he spoke in such a big tone.

"She's the Ten Princesses, right?" Noah asked.

Chu Qingchen nodded.

"She said she had enough fun, and she would come back, don't worry." Noah whispered comfort.

"Originally, her father's people followed her all the way. The father's intention was to let her suffer some hardships among the people and then return to the palace, so as not to be bold and reckless, not knowing the height of the sky, and often causing trouble. Who would have thought that she would be thrown off, Concubine Xiang was so anxious, my mother sent me a letter, and I hurried back to Beijing. has lost contact for so long, and I am really worried about her safety. ”

Noya hesitated for a while, and then whispered reluctantly: "There is a steamed bun shop in front of the HSBC building, why don't you ask the owner there, maybe there will be any clues." ”

The second prince's eyes lit up, and he slowly smiled, and said very sincerely: "Thank you, Miss Lin." ”

There was no longer any delay, and he closed the door and hurried away.
