It's night, the supreme kingdom.

On the dark official road, Su Zixi stumbled and ran, dressed in rags, and no one could tell that she was a princess.

She ran to the palace gate and wanted to go home, but was stopped by the guards.

The guard drew his knife and drove her away viciously: "Trespassing on the palace in the middle of the night, do you want to find death?" ”

If it was usual, Su Zixi would definitely whip this guard who was guilty of the following crimes, but now, she has no strength after a few days of not getting a drop of water, and she almost faints if she says a word.

"I ...... I'm Princess Chaoyun, let me in. ”

The guard laughed: "Where did Hanako come from and still want to pretend to be Princess Chaoyun, you speak carefully, let her know that she will definitely break your legs!" ”

Su Zixi was anxious: "I, I'm really ...... You called Xun Xiang to come over...... He'll recognize me. ”

The guard turned his head and waved his hand: "Xun Xiang, how can people like us see it casually?" You're crazy, aren't you? How to talk crazy. Let's go, let's go. ”

Before he could get his feet, he was grabbed by the corner of his clothes.

Su Zixi's dirty hands clutched the corners of his clothes tightly, his eyes were full of tears, but he couldn't bear to fall down: "You let me in, I have something important to find Xun Xiang, the imperial brother, he ...... He's in an accident, we need to hurry up and save him......"

The guard wanted to pull his clothes back, but Su Zixi grabbed it tightly, he couldn't pull it open for a while, and pulled out his knife in anger: "If you mess around at the gate of the palace again, don't blame me for being rude to you!" ”

He startled Su Zixi like this, her fingers were slightly loose, and she looked at him timidly, and the tears that she had been holding back in her eyes finally rolled down.

The guard took the opportunity to pull out his clothes, snorted coldly, and kicked Su Zixi: "Hurry up and get out." ”

Su Zixi was kicked and fell to the ground, his whole body curled up, and he was constantly trembling.

Her mouth and nose were all gray, her ears were buzzing, and her eyes were dazed and her mind was dizzy when she looked at the floor in front of her.

She felt like she might not be able to hold on.

Her royal brother traded himself for her life, but she was about to die at home...... Thinking of this, Su Zixi closed his eyes in pain.

The guard saw the woman named Hanako lying on the ground in front of him, and thought she was going to die, so he stepped forward and kicked her arm with his toes: "Hey, if you want to die, get away, don't die at the gate of the palace-"

Before he finished speaking, he was reminded in a low voice by another guard standing guard: "Hey! Xun Xiang came back, quickly stood up and opened the palace door. ”

He hurriedly retracted his feet, and the two of them pulled the palace gate up.

A carriage stopped at the gate of the palace, and Xun Chang got out of the carriage and rubbed his brows a little tiredly.

He went to visit a certain minister of the court today, and did not return to the palace until it was dark, and now he was really physically and mentally exhausted.

He walked slowly towards the palace gate, but was blocked by Su Zixi in the middle.

He also figured out what was going on, and the two guards over there hurriedly ran over, set up Su Zixi on the ground, and said to Xun Chang: "Xun Xiang, this person is a madman, pretending to be Princess Chaoyun, Xun Xiang is not strange, let's take her away!" ”

Xun Chang's eyebrows tightened, and he watched the two guards raise the ragged woman in front of him, until he saw Su Zixi's familiar and unfamiliar face appear in front of him, and his pupils shrank suddenly.

"Wait!" He immediately drank the guards, strode towards Su Zixi, and brushed away the broken hair on her face, revealing Su Zixi's dirty little face.

Her eyes were closed weakly, the corners of her mouth were chapped, as if she felt Xun Chang's presence, she opened her eyes with difficulty, and her voice was hoarse: "...... Is it Xun Xiang? ”

Xun Chang had never seen her so embarrassed?

He took a deep breath and glared at the two guards fiercely, he didn't even have time to reprimand, and hurriedly pulled Su Zixi in their hands to his side, held her shoulder, and his voice was a little astringent: "Your Highness? "

When the two guards saw this scene, they knew that the person in front of them who was called Huazi was really Princess Chaoyun, and they were frightened, and knelt on the ground with a "poof", and kowtowed again and again: "Little one doesn't know, beg, beg Xun Xiang, Her Royal Highness the princess forgives her sins!" Ask Her Royal Highness the Princess for forgiveness! ”

Xun Chang didn't have time to talk to them here, so he only coldly said "Accept the punishment by yourself", and then hurriedly called someone to carry a soft sedan chair over, and carried Su Zixi, who no longer had the strength to walk, to the princess hall.

He instructed the maid to bathe Su Zixi and change clothes, and waited outside the hall by himself, waiting for the maid to come out and salute him before he entered the palace to visit.

Su Zixi had already woken up, leaning on the soft pillow, with the imperial doctor standing on one side, and a maid standing on the other, carefully feeding her the small porridge that had just been boiled in the kitchen.

Xun Chang walked over, and Su Zixi looked up at him tiredly.

Before he could open his mouth to ask, Su Zixi leaned forward, grabbed his sleeve, and called him in a hoarse voice: "...... Xun Xiang. ”

She had been crying for too long, she couldn't even shed tears, and only looked at him with red eyes: "Brother Huang, he ...... Something went wrong. ”

From the beginning, when Su Zishu was not seen, and only Su Zixi came back in embarrassment, Xun Chang already had a bad premonition, and when he heard her say this, the thread that had already hung in his heart began to tighten.

But he forced himself to calm down, and comforted Su Zixi in a gentle voice as much as possible: "Her Royal Highness the princess will eat something first, and then talk to the minister in detail later." ”

Su Zixi really didn't have the strength to narrate what happened now, so he only nodded weakly, took the porridge in the maid's hand, and ate it in a big gulp.

After a while, after she devoured and ate, she regained a little strength, and after holding back everyone, she told Xun Chang word by word about the accident that happened on their way back to the city.

The guards and eunuchs all died tragically, including the inseparable eunuch beside her imperial brother, and she was even almost killed by Shen Yan. In the end, it was the imperial brother who used himself to exchange Su Zixi's life for Shen Yancai and promised to send her back.

After Xun Chang heard Su Zixi's words, his lips were tightly pursed, his hands were clenched into fists, and his fingertips were white.

"Xun Xiang, we must rescue the imperial brother! Shen is tired of that person's evil thoughts, and the imperial brother doesn't know how he will be tortured in his hands......" Su Zixi chattered, with an anxious look on his face: "Ming Guo treats my imperial brother like this, or we should declare war on them directly, so as to save the imperial brother as soon as possible." ”

Xun Chang shook his head: "No." ”

"Your Majesty has just signed a peace pact with the Ming Kingdom, if war is declared at this time, others don't know what to think of my Supreme Kingdom. In this way, I will first repair a book and ask the monarch of the Ming Kingdom what is going on. ”

"Xun Xiang!" Su Zixi seemed to be very excited: "Brother Huang doesn't know if he is safe now, how can we still have the patience to write a letter and wait for a reply?!" ”

"It's also a helpless move." Xun Chang frowned, and then sighed: "Your Highness, Your Majesty finally signed the document, I don't want to ruin it, and let Your Majesty be criticized by all countries." ”

"If I could, I would rather stop Your Majesty at the gate of the Supreme Kingdom's palace, maybe none of this would have happened."
