"Girl, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me, if something happens, my grandfather won't spare me. Gu Yaode shouted.

Gu Yingying didn't even look at him at all, and suddenly a bright smile appeared on her face, and she said softly, "You're not dead?" ”

"Sister, don't scare me, are you crazy? Talk to whom? Gu Yaode said in shock.

"Of course I'm not dead, how could I die so easily." A voice sounded behind Gu Yaode's head.

When Gu Yaode heard this voice, he was so frightened that his legs shook like chaff.

"Who are you? How are you still alive? Are you a human or a ghost? Gu Yaode's voice changed.

"You don't know if you turn your head." The voice behind him said. Gu Yaode slowly turned his head, and then he saw a little cold glow on the tip of his nose.

The Emperor of Chu State, who was supposed to die, was standing in front of him with a smile on his face.

"How is that possible? Why are you here? You shouldn't be ......"

"Son of heaven, when there is an incorruptible body of King Kong, how can a mere fire withstand me?" Li Yuan sneered.

Gu Yaode suddenly came to his senses, this Li Yuan must have escaped the fire, seeing that the matter was revealed, Gu Yaode thought to himself that he was not an opponent, and suddenly his body bounced, broke away from the tip of Li Yuan's sword at a very fast speed, and rushed on the back of the horse with incredible agility to urge the horse to leave.

Li Yuan pursed his lips and let out a whistle, and the big dark horse under Gu Yaode's seat jumped up and knocked Gu Yaode to the ground.

Gu Yaode was smashed to the ground, and Li Yuan came to him and smiled: "Master Gu, you are on the wrong horse." Gu Yaode was just about to struggle to get up, only to feel a heavy blow to his neck, and then he didn't know anything.

Li Yuan slashed his palm on Gu Yaode's carotid artery and knocked him unconscious, then walked quickly back to Yingying's side, and swung his sword to cut the ropes on Gu Yingying's bound hands and feet.

Gu Yingying was so surprised and delighted that she was already trembling and speechless, and she couldn't help herself after her hands and feet were freed, so she hugged Li Yuan and hugged him tightly and didn't let go.

Li Yuan patted Gu Yingying's back and said in a deep voice: "Lady Gu, I can't stay here for a long time, I'm leaving." Gu Yingying shouted anxiously, "Where are you going?" Li Yuan said coldly: "If your Gu family wants to put me to death, I can only avoid its edge first." I didn't expect your Gu family to treat me like this, and when my army arrives in the future, you will definitely repay you! Gu Yingying's face turned pale suddenly, and she said in a low voice: "But I, I didn't want to kill you, how could I do this." Li Yuan sighed lightly: "You didn't, but your grandfather, your father, uncle and brother all wanted me to die, if it weren't for God's protection, I would have been burned to powder in the scattered flower building at this moment." That's it, it's useless to talk too much, and I took my leave. Li Yuan pushed Gu Yingying away, turned around and walked to Gu Yaode's side, picked up the unconscious Gu Yaode, put him on the saddle of the black horse, and flew on the horse.

Gu Yingying shouted, "Was my brother killed by you?" Li Yuan sneered: "How can I kill him, he is now my talisman, I must take him with me." If your Gu family is too pressing, then I can only let him die with me. Gu Yingying said softly: "Thank you for not killing my brother." But where can you go now? You can't get out of the city, and if they really want to hunt you down, you won't be able to hide anywhere. Li Yuan sneered: "It's a big deal, and the jade will be burned." Gu Yingying bit her lower lip and said, "Li Xiao, Li Gongzi, if you trust me, come with me." I have a place for you to hide. Li Yuan frowned and looked at Gu Yingying, and Gu Yingying also looked up at Li Yuan's eyes, her eyes full of sincere pleading.

"Don't worry, I, Gu Yingying, swear again, if it harms Li Gongzi's heart, I will be killed by Gu Yingying, and there will be no place to bury me." Gu Yingying knew that Li Yuan was doubting her motives, she didn't feel strange at all, after all, it was her Gu family who wanted to kill Li Yuan, and Li Yuan had reason to doubt herself.

"Why are you helping me? Aren't you also a family person? Li Yuandao. Gu Yingying said softly: "To help you is to help my Gu family." This matter is my family's unkindness, not your fault. You came to Suzhou alone, and you did your best to defend Suzhou, they shouldn't treat you like this. I saved you to avoid the Gu family from making a big mistake, and I hope to leave a way for the Gu family to live in the future. Besides, this is also to help myself, I don't know if you heard my brother's words just now, my king of Wu Yue Kingdom wants to marry my Gu family, and I will never agree to this. Of course, Li Yuan heard the dispute between the brother and sister before, and because of this, he understood the Gu family's motive for killing him tonight.

His identity was exposed, and in order to be loyal to the king of Wu Yueguo, the Gu family killed himself obviously to pour the sky.

Li Yuan naturally heard about Qian Hongyu wanting to accept Gu Yingying as a concubine, but that was no longer something Li Yuan had to consider.

Li Yuan pondered for a moment, seeing that the noisy voices of people on the surrounding streets were getting louder and louder, and the fire that was soaring into the sky not far away had already alarmed half of the city's people, including the soldiers and horses patrolling the city.

If you delay any longer, I'm afraid you really won't be able to get out.

"Well, I believe you once. Where are we going to hide? Gu Yingying was overjoyed, and said continuously: "I have a painting boat moored in Jinjing Lake, which is the boat I usually play in the lake, and only I can use it. Let's go and hide in the boat, what do you think? Li Yuan frowned and said, "Jinjing Lake?" Isn't it close to your family? Gu Yingying said: "Don't worry, there is another road leading to the long bridge in the southwest of Jinjing Lake, and the painting boat is moored next to the pier under the bridge." Believe me, I will never harm you. Li Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to that boat." Gu Yingying smiled, limped to her mount, got on the back of the horse with difficulty, and said coquettishly: "Follow me." Gu Yingying urged the horse to go east, Li Yuan grabbed the belt of the unconscious Gu Yaode and rode the horse to follow, and the two horses turned into the alley before reaching the main street.

The alley zigzits south, and soon after it exits the alley to another side street. Gu Yingying sped up her speed and galloped all the way around in a big circle, and finally when she came out of Hengjie again, she was already a densely wooded place in front of her, and through the trees, it was the sparkling Jinjing Lake under the moonlight.

Gu Yingying stretched out her hand and pointed in the direction and whispered: "That's it, look, the painting boat is still parked there." Li Yuan looked around and saw an arched bridge across the waves under the hazy moonlight, connecting the narrow shore of the lake.

It looks like an ordinary long bridge, but it is a wonderful and rare scenery, on the water next to the bridge, a small building ship is moored there, and the bow of the ship is faintly lit.

"Someone on board?" Li Yuan frowned.

"It's not a problem, there is only one old boatman who is deaf and dumb, who guards this ship and helps me hold it." Gu Yingying said.

Li Yuan nodded, and at this time he had no choice but to go to the boat to hide. So he rode his horse to the stone bridge first, got off the horse next to the stone bridge, the two led the horse down to the dock, Gu Yingying got on the boat first and woke up the old boatman, and then Li Yuan also got on the boat with Gu Yaode in his arms.

The old boatman didn't know what was going on, Gu Yingying gestured and ordered him to start the boat, and he took the penny to prop up the boat and left the dock.

When Li Yuan and Gu Yingying entered the boat hall and just settled, the painting boat was already more than ten feet from the shore and sailed towards the center of the lake.
