Chapter Thirty-Nine: Down to the South of the Yangtze River

Previous Chapter

This year passed quietly, of course, this quiet only refers to the people of Yile Yuan, the front yard sang and danced for several days to receive officials and their families who came to visit from all over the world, and many young ladies took this opportunity to come to the door to see the style of the king of war.

In order to prevent disturbing Qin Yue's quietness, many sentry posts were arranged around Yi Yuan, who took turns guarding day and night every day, keeping many people who came to visit the princess away. For a while, Qin Yue's name spread all over the heavenly capital, some said that he had an incurable disease and died soon, and some said that he was grounded in the cold courtyard because he was not favored by the prince, only the autumn rain and Mingyue in the Yile Courtyard, Feng Anqi, Cang Mingyu and others couldn't cry or laugh, and this prince was too strict to protect his wife, and he didn't let people look at it.

And Qin Yue is also happy, every day a book of anecdotes in his hand to read with relish, there is no small talk book to see in this era, and I don't know how the society has developed so far, I can only find some clues from these anecdotes and legends, similar to the classic of mountains and seas in modern society, ancient texts and the like.

Now that everything in the backyard Qin Yue has been handed over to Mingyue to take care of, she has consciously cultivated her to do these things to prepare for her departure in the future. The garlic seedlings planted have eaten a lot, and the remaining ones are waiting to be kept as seeds after they mature, and now she has only one thing in her heart - Jiangnan.

At the end of the first month, I finally set off for Jiangnan, and it is estimated that it will take about half a month to arrive according to the distance. Qin Yue went out for the first time, everything he saw along the way felt novel, his eyes jumped with dazzling brilliance, and even with Cang Mingyuan, he was always kind and pleasant, and he did not skimp on his smile at all, and the atmosphere of the whole team was also very warm and harmonious.

"Qiu Yu, have you packed up the clothes you told you before?" Qin Yue lifted the corner of the carriage curtain and asked softly while enjoying the scenery in the distance. Qiu Yu and Mingyue sat in the carriage with her, and Cang Mingyuan rode in front with the guards.

"Miss, it's all packed, you can rest assured! I've got all the ones you like. Qiu Yu immediately reacted to what the young lady was referring to. Although Mingyue, who was playing dumb riddles between the master and servant, was a little puzzled, she thought that the young lady had always liked some strange things, so she didn't pay much attention to it.

I have always dreamed of leaving here and going to live a leisurely life of idle clouds and wild cranes, but now that I have finally taken a big step and can see hope, Qin Yue breathed a sigh of relief. Now I just have to wait for a little farther away from Tiandu to find a way to leave.

The sight fell on the handsome man sitting on the horse in the distance, and for a while his heart was a little reluctant, and his chest was sore, she knew that Cang Mingyuan had been good to her in the past few months, but she really didn't want to stay in the deep mansion of the palace, which was like a huge cage. Qin Yue, who grew up under the red flag, couldn't accept their taken for granted thoughts no matter what, and just wanted to escape from all this. Someone once posted on the Internet asking what you would do if you really traveled back in time. Almost 90% of the people are trying their best to return to modern times, and a few are like Qin Yue, who find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to live a dull life.

Tiandu is close to the northern region, the farther to the south of the Yangtze River, the climate is getting warmer and warmer, and the green shoots all over the mountains and fields are rushing to emerge along the way, taking away the dullness of winter, and everything is moving in a beautiful direction. When I arrived at Qingzhou City in the south of the Yangtze River, it was almost February, and the willow clusters and new branches hung on the treetops, and the breeze made people can't help but take a few deep breaths and feel the full spring mood.

There were several assassinations along the way, but they were all stopped by the guards, and Qin Yue didn't find a suitable opportunity to leave, but she had a feeling that the opportunity was not far away, Qingzhou City was the last battle, if those people couldn't stop Cang Mingyuan here, then there would be no chance when they arrived at his grandfather's house.

Not long after Qin Yue fell asleep that night, there was a fierce fighting sound outside, and Cang Mingyuan frowned tightly, his face was gloomy and terrifying, as if he contained boundless anger. When he turned his head, he was indifferent, and he gently instructed: "I'll go and see, you lie down and rest for a while." After saying that, he picked up the saber at the head of the bed and went out with a full anger.

Seeing Cang Mingyuan who was holding back his anger, Qin Yue suddenly felt a chill for the assassins outside, maybe such a terrifying Cang Mingyuan was his true face on weekdays, and he was the king of war in the eyes of everyone. These Assassins are destined to stay here today. Qin Yue lay on the bed alone and couldn't fall asleep, so she quietly got up and prepared to go to Qiu Yu and Mingyue's room next door.

"Huh" A long sword was across his neck, Qin Yue's little face turned pale with fright, the blade of the sword flashed with cold light, and his little heart kept beating with a puff, and he even forgot to shout.

"Don't move, the sword has no eyes, and it's not good to accidentally hurt the princess." A masked man in black said gloomily. Assassinated several times along the way, and finally he discovered Cang Mingyuan's weakness, he didn't expect that the terrifying war king would care so much about a weak little woman, this is really a strange news in the world. The masked man looked at the little woman opposite, his eyes full of curiosity.

The light in the room is dim, and it is not very real, only Qin Yue's petite figure and delicate facial features can be seen, but the resolute light in his eyes makes people see clearly. Qin Yue recovered from his initial timidity, suppressed the fear in his heart, and tried his best to face the man in black calmly.

"You can't escape today, the prince is tired of your assassination, and today he is determined to get rid of you." Qin Yue's gaze stared straight at the masked man. If you look closely, you should also be a beautiful man, just the eyebrows and eyes exposed outside make people feel amazing, the eyebrow peaks are sharp and angular, like a masterpiece of nature, the corners of the eyes are slightly raised, with a charming state, it should still be a charming goblin. After just a few glances, Qin Yue had a general understanding of the man, with such a look, I am afraid that he is also a famous big man in the rivers and lakes!

"Oh, are you so sure we can't get out?" The man seemed to disagree with Qin Yue's words, with a hint of mockery in his tone.

"I just believe in the king." Qin Yue still maintained a flat tone, not caring about the man's ridicule.

"Huh, huh? If it was before, I would have agreed with you, but today we have such a good hostage in our hands, I'm afraid the king of war can't help it. The man whispered in Qin Yue's ear and said. The man smiled and continued, "Actually, our target tonight is you. ”

Qin Yue, who was choked in a word, didn't turn a corner for a long time, she was an ordinary little woman with no money, no power, no appearance and no talent, what was there that was worth the other party spending so much effort to catch herself, this was really incomprehensible. Before Qin Yue could figure it out, the man pushed her towards the door.

There are still a few figures fighting in the courtyard of the inn, surrounded by accompanying guards, in the crowd, Cang Mingyuan's elegant and ghostly figure harvests a life every time he goes out, and the remaining black-clothed people have been numb from killing, and their feet are constantly changing positions, trying to get rid of the fate of being killed.

The sound of the man in black opening the door attracted the attention of the guards downstairs, and when he saw Qin Yue who was coerced, his face showed a panicked look. Along the way, the guards also understood in their hearts what the princess meant to the prince, and now that the enemy was holding a sword to his neck, this was not an obvious threat to the prince.
