A breeze blew, and the petals fluttered again.

The palm of the hand is stretched out, and a petal is falling on the fingertip. A wry smile overflowed from the corner of Ning Qing's mouth.

The empress has been scheming for many years, how can it be so simple to leave. And what can I do in this situation?

Pinched the petals with two fingers, and with a gentle force, the pale red flower juice stained the fingertips.

His own fate is like this, since the day he found Xue Lengyu, no matter how the situation develops, it is inevitable that he will die for the eldest princess.

This death, although it is willing, the pain in my heart is clearly invisible. Little by little, like this flower juice, the mood is dyed red.

On his face, between the flowers and leaves, he couldn't hide that silent smile after all.

Ning Qing just stood slightly, his smile faded, and he was about to take a step in the other direction, but he heard the figure of a branch being pulled away in the forest where Xue Lengyu had just left. The robes flashed, and they were back.

Ning Qing hurriedly said, "What's wrong?" ”

Xue Lengyu strode up to Ning Qing and raised his face: "Ning Qing, do you want to go back and receive death?" ”

Ning Qing was stunned for a moment, and forced a smile: "Leng Yu, what are you talking about?" ”

"Brother Ning." Shuli also followed: "Come with us." What kind of person is Empress Chunyu, you know better than me, you help us leave, go back like this, she won't let you go. Let alone...... In the palace that day, she was already suspicious of you. ”

Xue Lengyu didn't know that the palace was sinister, but how could he not know. Selfishly, he didn't want to see Ning Qing with them, not just because of the relationship between Ning Qing and Xue Lengyu, but for him, except for Xue Lengyu, any other life that would bring him trouble did not need to exist.

But how did he not know that Ning Qing had done so many things for Xue Lengyu, even if Xue Lengyu was ruthless to him, he was like a brother and a friend. If he watched Ning Qing go back knowing that he was going to die, Xue Lengyu would not be able to let go of it if he knew it in the future.

Ning Qing smiled and didn't speak, but Xue Lengyu said, "Ning Qing, you want to protect me, I'll go." There are many dangers, don't you care. ”

Ning Qing's smile was a little bitter: "Leng Yu, I am very relieved to protect you." ”

"That's not going to work." Xue Lengyu pulled his shirt: "Ning Qing, I just said that if I knew that you would be in danger, I would have to pull you away even if I cried, made trouble, and hanged you, you wouldn't really want me to do this." ”

Xue Lengyu said, and pretended to look around to see if there was any tree suitable for her to use as props.

Ning Qing was amused by Xue Lengyu's serious appearance and smiled: "Leng Yu, it's really not necessary. I have been by the Empress's side for so many years, without merit, and with hard work. She just didn't believe me, and she wouldn't kill me. ”

"Nope." Xue Lengyu said directly: "Ning Qing, I don't believe you. ”

Although Xue Lengyu didn't know Ning Qing so well, how could he not understand the difference. If it weren't really because Ning Qing was worried about her life, I was afraid that she would be difficult to let go of it in the future, how could Shuli propose to let someone like Ning Qing and Xue Lengyu follow him, although he had no husband and wife relationship.

Shu Li sighed: "Ning Qing, Leng Yu's temperament, you know. If anything happens to you. She will not be at ease in this life, let alone go back to die because of us. ”

Ning Qing's return to the palace this time is no different from suicide. It's just that he already knew his fate, so he was calm.

Xue Lengyu looked at him and said lightly, "Ning Qing." If you don't go, I won't go. I don't want to die, but I don't want to watch you die for me, since you said that this life is mine, why don't you let me control it? ”

Even if Xue Lengyu knew that she had taken Ning Qing away, she couldn't do what he really wished, but she believed that as long as she lived, anything could be changed. There is still hope for anything.

It is useless to stay here, so he put his hand on Ning Qing's shoulder: "Let's go." ”

Ning Qing looked at him: "I'm afraid I won't be able to leave." ”

Originally, Ning Qing planned to do something by himself to lead away the pursuers and buy some time for the two of them. But now that Xue Lengyu insists on being with him, the empress's people will not delay for too long, and the possibility that they will be able to leave is too small.

"If you can't go, you have to go." Xue Lengyu really couldn't stand the fact that the two of them were still procrastinating like this at this time, so he simply pulled one with one hand and walked towards the forest.

"Leng Yu ......" Ning Qing was pulled, but she didn't dare to wave her hand away, so she couldn't help but take a few steps with her.

"You are a big man, why are you such a mother-in-law." Xue Lengyu walked forward and said, "If you really have no interest in life, find a simple and clean way to die by yourself, and I won't stop you." If you don't want to die, why go back and give it to someone else? You don't want to think about it either. If you go back to the palace and the Empress imprisons you, and then puts up a notice to force me to show up, can I watch you die? ”

When Xue Lengyu said Ning Qing's mother-in-law first, he smiled bitterly. When Xue Lengyu said the back, Ning Qing couldn't help but feel a little scared in his heart, he really didn't expect this. And this is really possible.

Although Xue Lengyu is a woman, sometimes she is still a woman who is a little tough and not a woman's kindness, but she has a place in her heart after all, and with what he has learned these days, if Empress Muyuan really uses herself to coerce, I am afraid that Xue Lengyu will really not be able to harden her heart.

With this thought, Ning Qing no longer dared to think about leaving by herself and going back to the palace to meet the empress. On the contrary, he was a little glad that Xue Lengyu kept him. In any case, even if he followed Xue Lengyu and them, looking at their inevitable Qingqing and me, no matter how uncomfortable he was, it was better to let the empress use herself to restrain Xue Lengyu.

I think I understand. He patted Xue Lengyu's hand and motioned for her to let go of herself.

Xue Lengyu turned his head to look at him, and Ning Qing smiled: "You're right, I'm leaving and returning to the palace now, it's really not good for you." In spite of...... In the future, I'll take you to a safe place first. ”

Shuli frowned and did not speak.

's own woman, if she wants someone else, or a quasi-rival to follow and protect. This is not a pleasant thing, but think about it, if Ning Qing really goes back to die. That would undoubtedly be more troublesome.

At that moment, several people didn't speak, just walked forward, but their hearts were full of thoughts and intricacies.

After walking for a while, he saw that the forest was gradually deepening, and he said: "Out of this forest, there is a small town outside, and there is a contact point of mine in the town, where we will rest for the night, and tomorrow we will ride westward." In about two or three days, you will be able to get out of the Makubuchi border. Once the curtain is out, it will not be so easy for the Empress Chunyu to make any moves. ”

Xue Lengyu didn't know the situation of these routes, so naturally he wouldn't say anything. Ning Qing said: "That road, I'm afraid it won't work." ”

"How?" Shuli turned around and asked.

Although he was unhappy with Ning Qing, he was not hostile. Even if he didn't believe that Ning Qing would be honest with him, at least he wouldn't do anything unfavorable to Xue Lengyu. Anyway, it is an indisputable fact that when he was in the palace that night, he risked his life from his own knife to rescue Xue Lengyu.

Ning Qing smiled bitterly: "Even if I can find you, the empress will naturally be able to." Originally, I wanted to take another path and lead the pursuers away for a while, but now we are walking all the way, and our whereabouts will not be hidden for long. Moreover, I don't know what kind of hatred the messenger has with you, even if he can know your whereabouts at this time, and know your situation well, I am afraid that your point of contact is not so safe. ”

Xue Lengyu heard Ning Qing talk about the person who exposed their whereabouts, and when she thought about it, she couldn't help but snort: "It's really a peach blossom tribulation." ”

Ning Qing didn't know what Xue Lengyu was referring to, but she knew it in her heart, and when she thought of Helian Wanjing's disheveled ** self yesterday, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Jun coughed slightly red. Hurriedly changed the topic and said: "What Brother Ning said is also reasonable, even if Helian Wanjing can reveal my whereabouts to the emperor, it will be reversed, and the liaison station outside the forest is afraid that it is really dangerous." ”

Xue Lengyu was embarrassed and knew that it was not what he wanted, so he didn't make any more ridicule and ask, and straightened his color and said, "Then what should we do now?" This forest, besides the road you said, where else can it go? ”

After a pause, he said, "If we can't go out of the forest and cross the town, then we can only go east to Mozambique." ”

East? Xue Lengyu looked at the place where Shu Li's finger was, to the east, there were continuous high mountains, one higher than the other, a little incredible, on the top of the mountain, you could faintly see the snow.

What season is this, Xue Lengyu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but say, "How can there be snow?" ”

Ning Qing's expression darkened, and he said, "That's the No. 1 Divine Mountain in the Makubys, Snow Peak." When you enter the Snow Peak area, it is in severe cold all year round, and the snow on the mountain does not melt all year round. There is a big reason why Makubuchi has coexisted peacefully with Mozambique for many years, and it is also because of the junction of the two countries, this snow peak is a natural barrier. ”

Xue Lengyu nodded and said, "Although the climate in this mountain is harsh, isn't there any guarding soldiers?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.

Ning Qing was a little puzzled: "In that kind of environment, who else needs to guard it." Whether it is the army of Muyuan or the army of the Mo country, it is impossible for anyone to cross this snow peak. ”

Xue Lengyu couldn't help but be deflated: "Since it is impossible to overcome, it is useless to say it." ”

Shu Li's eyes flashed: "The army is insurmountable, because after all, the army is dominated by ordinary soldiers." If it were me and Brother Ning, it shouldn't be a problem. ”

When he said this, he looked at Ning Qing's gaze, which was a little more provocative.

Ning Qing avoided this gaze and nodded: "Can you pass it, there is no choice now." It's better than a head-on confrontation with the Emperor. ”
