Outside the quiet courtyard, Chu Tiange asked several times, "Can I go in?" ”

"Wait, wait."

Li Yanxiao looked around, but today the dark clouds covered the moon, and the surroundings were dark and he couldn't see the scene clearly, so where did the calf go?

Chu Tiange yawned, stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, and a red flame was born in his palm, illuminating this small square world.

Li Yanxiao finally saw a man sleeping soundly under a tree holding a large porcelain jar by the light.

"Wan Cheng?"

Li Yanxiao called, Wan Cheng didn't react, he squatted down helplessly to take the jar from this person's arms, Wan Cheng was shocked, hugged the jar tighter, shook his head and had a tendency to wake up.

Chu Tiange immediately withdrew his palm, and the surroundings fell into darkness again, only faintly visible figures, but not clearly.

The one on the ground jumped to his feet, "Who, who is it?" ”

"Me." Li Yanxiao said lightly.

“……”

Wan Cheng was silent for a moment, and immediately said respectfully: "Your Highness! My subordinates have been waiting here for a long time. ”

"Hmm." Li Yanxiao was too lazy to say, "Give me something." ”

Wan Cheng didn't see Li Yanxiao beside him at all, but took a step towards Chu Tiange.

I don't know what I caught in this step, and his thick body suddenly slammed into the ground, lying on Chu Tiange's face.

Bang –

The sound of the jar breaking was crisp in the quiet of the night, and a swarm of fireflies flashed out.

She seemed to be in the boundless sky, surrounded by stars, and her feet were not hard pebbles, but a vast fairyland.

Wan Cheng got up from the ground, and before he could dust off his body, he was dragged aside by Li Yanxiao.

"What did you do, did you bring your soul?"

I wanted to open it with my own hands to surprise her, but I had an accident in such an abrupt way and gave her a fright.

Chu Tiange looked at his clear moon-like eyebrows through Ying Yingguang, and chuckled: "Don't blame him, I like it very much." ”

A soft voice swept through his heart, and all dissatisfaction was swept away.

Li Yanxiao's ears were slightly hot, "It's good if you like it." ”

The stars in front of him slowly dispersed, and Chu Tiange touched his hot cheeks, fortunately, the night was high and dark.

"I'm in to rest, and so are you...... Rest early. ”

-

Xiao Mian carried a lamp, sat on the stone table in the courtyard, and was drowsy with his head propped up.

Seeing Chu Tiange coming back, Xiao Mian came to his senses.

"What time is it?"

Chu Tiange thought for a moment, "It's time." ”

"Miss hasn't come back yet...... Xiao Mian rubbed her eyes and said happily, "It's been two hours since Miss sent Marquis Zhao into the room, Ah Ge, didn't you say anything good happened?" ”

Chu Tiange thought of the things about the Ninth Princess, and a chill ran down his spine.

If this happens, so many pairs of eyes in the mansion will soon reach the ears of the ninth princess, and Zhao Yan's situation will be extremely dangerous.

This is a good thing, this is Zhao Yan's death knell.

"You go and get your young lady back, don't let her spend the night in Zhao Heng's room, go quickly."

Xiao Mian paused and looked at her suspiciously, "Why?" ”

Chu Tiange gasped, "I said, Zhao Heng is the person that the Ninth Princess has taken a fancy to, and there is a reason why he has always been lonely and widowed, don't go against the Ninth Princess, understand?" ”

Xiao Mian still didn't want to move, "So what?" ”

"It's going to be a loss of life." Chu Tiange said word by word, "In case what I said is true, can you bear the consequences?" ”

Xiao Mian hesitated, got up and said, "Okay, I'll believe you once." ”

Seeing her step out of the courtyard with a lantern, Chu Tiange calmed down. As long as he hadn't spent the night in his house, it wouldn't have happened.

Before the two of them came back, Chu Tiange rested on the collapse.

-

As it was dawning, she heard a specially lightened footsteps.

Chu Tiange sat up violently, looked at the two who were about to untie their clothes, and stared at them.

Zhao Yan got into the bunk with some weakness, Xiao Mian simply glanced at her and said, "What? ”

Chu Tiange was angry and anxious, got up and sat on the side of Zhao Yan's bed, "Did you stay overnight at Zhao Heng's?" ”

Zhao Yan blushed and stumbled: "My cousin drank too much, I just took care of him, so I didn't leave in order to let him know that the person who took care of me was me...... That's not a big deal, is it? ”

Chu Tiange looked at her with drooping eyelids for a long time, thinking about what to do.

Xiao Mian muttered: "What's wrong with Miss following Xuanping Hou, can the Ninth Princess really eat the people in the Hou Mansion?" ”

Chu Tiange glared at her angrily, "Didn't I understand what I told you last night?" Mrs. Xiang's niece is gone, what's so strange about eating your young lady. ”

Xiao Mian was murdered this time, and replied unwillingly: "You can't see my young lady, you are jealous that she has climbed a high branch!" Wearing a veil all day long, and pretending to be cold yesterday, isn't it just to attract attention? ”

Chu Tiange was stunned, slightly shocked by the size of her brain. was not interested in reasoning with her, so he only looked at Zhao Yan with a heartache.

Zhao Yan said apologetically: "Xiaomian, she is straightforward and fast-talking, don't take it to heart." ”

Chu Tiange sighed to himself.

"It's my fault, I didn't expect you to fall in love with your cousin. There are so many high-ranking disciples in Jinling City, you actually fell into this pit. If I had known this, I wouldn't have advised you to come at the time. ”

Zhao Yan grabbed her hand, her eyes were like red peach blossoms, and she said sincerely: "But I'm still very glad to be here,"

"I've said it all, the road is up to you. Bear the rest for yourself. ”

Chu Tiange withdrew his hand and got up to put on his coat.

Xiao Mian snorted unconvinced, Zhao Yan whispered, "Don't be unreasonable", and Xiao Mian buried her head in the futon.

Zhao Yan sat on the bed, watched Chu Tiange hastily comb himself, and asked, "Where are you going so early?" ”

"Go and live."

Before Chu Tiange went out, he still said uneasily, "The matter has come to this, you can only desperately get close to Zhao Heng, if he is willing to do his best to protect you, there may still be life." ”

"Ah Ge, who are you?"

Zhao Yan's sudden question made Chu Tiange pause.

Chu Tiange didn't want to deceive people, his throat seemed to be choked, "People who were born in Jinling City and lost their families." ”

"Not only do you know Jinling City well, but you also know this mansion. I've turned around many times and I'm still lost, and I have to ask someone to find this yard. But you are...... You know it all at home. ”

Zhao Yan's calm tone couldn't tell anything was wrong.

Chu Tiange looked back at her and felt very funny, "Since you have such doubts, you still don't believe what I said." Am I going to hurt you? ”

Zhao Yan shook her head slightly, her eyes darkening.

"It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that I don't get a tiger if I don't go into the tiger's den. Ah Ge, if I am about to face what you say, can you save me? ”

Chu Tiange's expression froze slightly, he didn't answer, stepped over the hurdle under his feet, and took the door with him.

There was silence in the room for a moment, and Xiao Mian said disdainfully: "Miss, do you still take her words seriously?" ”

Zhao Yan lay down, and her voice was faint: "My cousin was drunk last night, saying that he was tired of the Ninth Princess, so he can't marry a wife and take a concubine so far." ”

Xiao Mian was dumbfounded for a long time, and said, "Even if what Ah Ge said is true, she doesn't have the ability to save Miss." ”

"I always thought she was unusual. She always called my cousin by his first name, but there was no disrespect. This kind of calling ......" Zhao Yan thought for a moment and said, "It's like an old friend for many years." ”

"How is that possible?" Xiao Mian felt that Miss's speculation was too outrageous, "Who are the people that Xuanping Hou befriended, they are all people at the peak of our Qianyuan Dynasty's power." What kind of person is Ah Ge, just an orphan girl. ”

Zhao Yan closed her eyes and stopped talking.
