"Don't!"

Xia Qingyi, who had been hiding in the sedan chair and had been paying attention to the battle situation outside, couldn't hold back any longer, and rushed from the sedan chair to Chu Zexi with an exclamation, facing another group of black-clothed people who were besieging her, she opened her arms to block in front of Chu Zexi without hesitation.

What is she doing?? Chu Zexi opened his eyes and looked at the petite body in front of him in disbelief, this woman, does she want to protect herself!? Accustomed to the palace struggle of secret temptation and deceit, he has never treated people who only sneer at the behavior of not standing up for themselves, and he is a little shocked。。。。。。

After all, since he was sensible, there was only one Uncle Xu around him who treated him sincerely, but even Uncle Xu taught him was a trade-off based on weighing the pros and cons。。。。。。

Chu Zexi let his thoughts surge, he could barely support his feet, he put one hand on Xia Qingyi's shoulder, and covered his chest with the other, obviously wanting to pull the person behind him, but he couldn't exert any strength.

The black-clothed people who were getting closer and closer did not relax for a moment, they saw Chu Zexi's powerlessness and Xia Qingyi's bluff, and slowly approached with the two of them as the center, and the sharp blades were lined up in a row, like an open fan, dazzling people's hearts, and they were about to point at their throats in the next second, but there was an overwhelming aura that knocked down the black-clothed people.

"It's really moving!"

A hearty, clear, warm male voice came from the sky. With the trembling of the branches and leaves in the forest, the flowers fell and the beasts were terrifying, and a white shadow fell, blocking in front of Chu Zexi Xia Qingyi.

Gong Yaoyuan actually discovered the abnormality as early as the first time Chu Zexi was besieged, he let his sedan chair stop far away, regardless of the gossip in the rivers and lakes, he originally planned to watch coldly, and wait for the killing to pass before hurrying. What's more, Chu Zexi's royal identity is too easy to guess. But when he found Xia Qingyi, who was dressed as a man running out of the sedan chair, the person with the mentality of watching the show was a little uncalm, this face made him intuitively familiar, but he couldn't remember it, but he wanted to lend a hand inexplicably, and when his eyes turned to the bun next to him, he finally determined that Xia Qingyi was the person who painted the portrait.

Gong Yaoyuan, who fell from the sky, was simply a hero who stepped on the clouds in Xia Qingyi's eyes, wearing a dark color narrow-sleeved robe, embroidered gold silk auspicious beasts at the cuffs, and the ink-dyed hair fluttered slightly under the breeze, lined with a figure hanging in mid-air, handsome and abnormal.

Suddenly, he turned to Chu Zexi with both hands and clenched his fists, leaned over and bowed gently, with an indifferent and elegant smile on his extremely handsome face.

"Dongle Palace Yaoyuan, I am willing to serve the prince of Chu for the work of dogs and horses, and I hope that the prince can make it convenient for my palace family's century-old business to enter Southern Chu."

He can't help in vain, anyway, he can't avoid this troubled water today, so it's better to have sweetness in case he needs it in the future. After Gong Yaoyuan finished speaking, he looked at Chu Zexi with blazing eyes, he was waiting for Chu Zexi to make a promise, and at this moment he expected that Chu Zexi would not be able to refuse.

"Hmm!" Chu Zexi clearly expressed his approval of this transaction in an almost inaudible voice, although he extremely hated being threatened, but now the situation is stronger than people, only to save his life first, as for his request, he has the right to be a normal trade between the two countries, if it is true that both sides can benefit, he is also happy to return this favor, if not, everything is also under his control.

Xia Qingyi didn't know that these two people were secretly tempting and calculating with each other, the only thought in her mind was to be saved, so she quickly supported Chu Zexi and stepped aside, took the bun that flew into her arms, and chose a corner with a wide field of vision to wait for the show!

I saw the white fan in Gong Yaoyuan's hand flying, and the white light and shadow danced and scattered, and the broken cold light flashed through the body of the man in black, turning into sword qi and cutting off a torso, and the air was filled with the smell of blood, until the last person fell. Gong Yaoyuan's flying clothes were not stained with a drop of blood.

Only one sentence flashed in Xia Qingyi's mind: Lupine scarf, talking and laughing, the canopy was in ashes.

"Handsome!" Xia Qingyi, who was fascinated and applauded, also felt that something was wrong the moment she blurted out, and immediately lowered her head and didn't dare to speak.

I didn't notice Chu Zexi's frowning brows next to him, and his expression fell into contemplation----- It is rare for a businessman to have such a high level of martial arts.

After Gong Yaoyuan easily put down a group of black-clothed people, he politely made a gesture to Chu Zexi:

"I respectfully invite Prince Chu to rest in my sedan chair, although it is not as luxurious and comfortable as the royal carriage, it can also shelter from the wind and the sun, and relieve labor and illness. If His Royal Highness does not dislike it, the grass people are willing to send His Highness safely to the capital of Southern Chu before leaving on their own. The tone was full of flattery.

Chu Zexi, who had experienced a fight, was already exhausted, and he had long wanted to find a place to rest and recuperate, it can be said that Suigong Yaoyuan's proposal was in the middle of the heart, and Xia Qingyi on the side heard the words and immediately got up and helped Chu Zexi to walk to the carriage together.

Gong Yaoyuan always lowered his head and leaned over respectfully until the two of them boarded the carriage. No one noticed the sly glint in his eyes under his indifferent face.

Xia Qingyi had just experienced an accidental assassination, and the feeling of the rest of her life after the catastrophe made her whole person relax as soon as she entered the car, and she was even more drowsy as the carriage bumped up and down. didn't have the heart to pay attention to Gong Yaoyuan's carriage at all, but Chu Zexi saw the clue from this extremely gorgeous and luxurious sedan chair at first glance.

The carriage was made of fine rosewood on all sides, the corners were decorated with perilla satin brocade, the interior was covered with precious and exquisite blue marble, and the gold-inlaid windows were shaded by a curtain of bright yellow crepe.

The carriage of this palace family is not far behind the royal family!!

In fact, the Gong family is indeed the richest businessman in Donghuan. Although the status of "Shinong and Industrialist" in this dynasty is not high, even the common people still have such a arrangement: emperors, sages, hermits, children, immortals, literati, warriors, farmers, industrialists, merchants, and merchants are also ranked last. But the rich family background of the country made this family even give three points to the Dongle royal family!

After Chu Zexi got into the car, he kept his eyes closed and pondered the forces behind the man who fell from the sky, but he didn't find that Xia Qingyi, who was sleeping in a daze, was lost by this bumpy mountain road, and saw that his body was about to fall to the sedan pillar on the other side, Gong Yaoyuan's eyes quickly put a soft pillow on Xia Qingyi's face when it was about to collide, looking at her unaffected sleeping face, Gong Yaoyuan unconsciously showed a smile.

But his move immediately attracted Chu Zexi's attention, so this man's target was not him in the first place?

Although he had doubts, Chu Zexi, who was traveling with him, was surprisingly quiet, except for when Xia Qingyi was expelling Gu poison for him, he occasionally asked a few words, and he was silent about Gong Yaoyuan. And Gong Yaoyuan was just the opposite of him, when he arrived in the town, he looked for various reasons to ask Xia Qingyi to go shopping on the street, and when he was really bored on the road, he used cloth petals and leaves to make little rabbits and little crabs for Xia Qingyi to make her happy.

Baozi was still baring his teeth at Gong Yaoyuan at first, but after finding that his master was completely unaffected, he could only sit on Chu Zexi in anger and look at him with complaining eyes for help: This man doesn't care, its owner is jumping into the fire pit! Are all human beings so superficial? In the face of a good-skinned object, he won't even refuse!?

The more he thought about it, the more depressed he became, but it was pitiful that it had an empty mouth and couldn't speak, how blind its owner was!! Uncomfortable! Uncomfortable! It's uncomfortable!! Ah! Uncomfortable pillow, Chu Zexi fell asleep unconsciously.

Chu Zexi uncharacteristically let the fat cat lie down, if he usually said that he was the most taboo when someone approached him, but these days, this little fat cat made him disgusted. And he can be regarded as seeing clearly, compared with its owner, this fat cat is more than a little smarter, and it is far superior in terms of recognizing things and people.

Xia Qingyi came back from the market and saw the extremely harmonious picture of a person and a cat, as if she was caught fooling around and coming back. She had no choice but to smirk to resolve the embarrassment.

"Well, let's find a quiet place in a while, and I'll take a look at it for His Highness!" Xia Qingyi lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Chu Zexi when she spoke.

"Okay, for now," he said as he gently put down the bun lying on his lap, just so that it could continue to sleep on all fours, and then stepped out of the carriage and walked deeper into the woods. Xia Qingyi was stunned for a second, not daring to slack off, and immediately took off her backpack and hurried to follow.

Now that Xia Qingyi is already familiar with the use of the Spirit Urging Gu, she watched the Gu worm crawl into the furnace, carefully closed the top cover, raised her head and saw that the bruise on Chu Zexi's chest had completely disappeared, and grinned happily:

"It's finally done, now as long as you can find the Yanluo grass and lure the Gu worms out, but this grass boy can't find it, and it still depends on His Highness himself."

Xia Qingyi was wearing an azure robe today, her wrists were loosely pulled up, revealing her white arms, and there were a few drops of sweat hanging on her neck due to the Gu urging technique she had just performed, because she was still dressed as a scholar, and under the high bun, her long hair fluttered casually, and the breeze blew, slightly cocked against her cheeks, adding a bit of charm.

Chu Zexi looked at the people under the sunset, and they exuded a faint brilliance, so beautiful that they couldn't take their eyes off it at all.

"Your Highness, Childe, it's time for us to go"

Gong Yaoyuan's voice came from a distance, although he walked slowly, and stopped at a distance from them to show respect. But when his eyes swept over the two of them, he still found something unusual, but his face was not obvious, he just looked up at the sky, and opened his mouth as if he was impermanent:

"It's time to leave, if you don't leave, you won't be able to catch up with the inn after dark!"

"Then let's go, I'm hungry" Xia Qingyi picked up the bun that woke up to greet her, looking embarrassed, and passed by him almost deserted. Chu Zexi followed the carriage without saying a word, only Gong Yaoyuan stopped and looked around for a long time, until he was sure that there was a certain Gu worm summoning ceremony in the woods just now, his face changed and changed, and then he quickly followed.
