Chapter 484: Caught
After a wave of attacks from the birds, the chaotic footsteps suddenly approached, Zhu Jiu frowned, and reached out to pull Zu Mengxu to dodge and hide in the wild grass.
"Keep your mouth shut, don't make a sound."
However, as soon as they crouched down, another flock of birds attacked in an instant, stirring up a gust of fishy wind, like a knife and axe.
The other party was menacing, and Zhu Jiu was almost injured by it for a while.
Zu Mengxu, who was beside him, reacted quickly, and he didn't have time to explain, so he looked back and raised his wrist, which was able to suppress Zhu Jiu's head.
"Be careful!"
However, at the moment when he thought he had succeeded in saving people, Zhu Jiu suddenly stretched out his slender and powerful arm and tightly choked the throat of the crow that sneaked up on Zu Mengxu.
"One time at a time, we're even."
Zu Mengxu just wanted to say something, but he was pressed down by Zhu Jiu, "Bow your head, someone is coming."
The two of them hid their bodies in the grass, revealing only their sparkling eyes to peek out, always vigilant and lurking in the dark.
Even so, it is still difficult to hide the tension in the air that is getting closer and closer.
"Princess, why do you have to struggle like this?"
A rather familiar voice suddenly sounded in the clearing not far away, and the person who came was dressed in blue but masked, with a spider-topped hairpin on his head, it was the spider girl who had ambushed Zhu Jiu and Xuanyuan Che before.
She was rushing towards this side with a group of people.
"Anyway, you and the Lord are brothers and sisters, how can your subordinates bear to really hurt you?"
A few people behind Spider Niang carried a Nanmu box, and with the naked eye, they could see that there was something in it that was struggling, and Spider Niang opened the box violently at this moment, and the smile on her face never faded, and she continued: "As long as you are obedient, your subordinates will guarantee that you will be taken out to see your lover unharmed."
Only then did the person in the box reveal his true face, it was Xuanyuan Che's own concubine, the Qingli princess of Changyue Kingdom.
I vaguely saw that she was wearing a pale pink dress, her neck was straight out of the box, and her face was very pale without being cleared, I don't know if it was because she was frightened.
Princess Qingli stared at the spider girl tightly, and said angrily: "If you want to kill, come now, why do you have to act in front of this princess."
"Don't talk nonsense, the Lord is reluctant to kill you, and your lover is of great use to the Lord."
"What?"
Spider Niang no longer looked at Princess Qingli, but ordered the two people carrying the box, "Let's go."
"Wait!"
Spider Niang didn't hear it, and wanted to take people out of here as soon as possible.
However, Princess Qingli struggled even more, and almost overturned the box, which forced the spider girl and others to stop again.
"What else does the princess have something to say?"
With a dull sound of "bang", Princess Qingli slammed her head on the wall of the box, and the blood stains were clearly visible, and she was sure that this was the only way to shock the spider girl.
"Princess!" Spider Niang's apricot eyes slammed and shouted coldly, "What are you doing here? Do you deliberately embarrass your subordinates?"
Princess Qingli's eyes were cold, and she said indifferently: "Let me see Ah Yi, otherwise I will immediately cut myself off here, and when the time comes, I am afraid that you will not be able to escape the blame in front of him."
After hearing this, Spider Niang's face was like frost, and her voice was much colder, "It's useless for the princess to threaten her subordinates at this moment, your lover is controlled by the Lord, and I don't have the ability to lift the ban at all."
Princess Qingli smiled miserably, "Princess Ben knows that you can't do it, so I just want to see him, and you don't have to worry about the rest."
After speaking, Princess Qingli stared at the spider girl again and saw the hesitation on her face clearly.
"You won't agree?"
Princess Qingli turned her heart sideways and wanted to hit the wall of the box again.
"Wait!" Spider Niang's face became even colder, she slowly looked around, and only whispered to her for a while, "My subordinates can take you to meet people, but not now."
"When was that," Princess Qingli hurriedly asked, "Could it be that you have already done something to him, so you don't dare."
Take me to see it?"
"No comment!"
Spider Niang slowly turned her back to her, her eyes staring coldly in the direction where she should have evacuated, and her murderous aura was not concealed at all.
"Princess," an inscrutable smile tugged at the corner of her mouth, "if I were you, I would never see him at this juncture."
Princess Qingli didn't expect her to suddenly say such a sentence, and she was stunned.
She continued to say without emotion, "The Lord is optimistic that he is also sympathetic to you to make such a decision, and when everything is done, you will definitely like that little lover even more."
Princess Qingli instantly showed a frightened expression on her face, and asked hatefully, "What did he do to Ah Yi, tell me quickly!" Did he use that kind of thing on Ah Yi?"
The corners of Spider Niang's mouth pulled up a touch of coldness, "It's really not that, princess, the one that the Lord has placed on him is a thousand times more interesting than you think, ten thousand times more interesting."
After hearing what she said, Princess Qingli instantly collapsed in the box, and her eyes had lost the brilliance of her original desire for a miracle, and she was pressed back into the box by the spider girl and closed the lid again, "You are so obedient, maybe there is a chance to see him."
After doing all this, Spider Niang didn't stop any longer, and disappeared at the end of the clearing with the people.
After the surroundings calmed down, Zhu Jiu narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Zu Mengxu on the side.
"You're here to see this?"
It was only at this time that she saw clearly that Zu Mengxu, who was like a peacock, was wearing a scarlet robe embroidered with flying eagles today, which seemed to mean something?
"Mother, don't look at me like that, it's scary! It was an accident, an accident!"
His eyes were like stars, his red lips moved up and down, but the words he spat out didn't seem to be convincing.
"Do you think Hongu will believe it?"
The cold wind passed between the two of them, rolling up bursts of cold air, which also made Zu Mengxu very embarrassed.
Zhu Jiu also discovered at this time that Zu Mengxu seemed to have always been like this, and every time he met him, something inexplicable would happen, and then led him to discover some new clues.
"Niangniang, why don't we leave first and then talk?"
Zhu Jiu slowly got up and took two steps back, looking at the man in front of him with a deep face, as if he wanted to re-examine him.
And Zu Mengxu rubbed his hands helplessly on the side, with a harmless embarrassment on his face, looking very innocent. qs
"Let's go! Concubine Li's affairs cannot be hidden from Your Majesty."
Then, at the same time, they shifted their gaze and walked in the direction of the main tent.
From the beginning to the present, Zhu Jiu didn't trust Zu Mengxu very much, and he didn't feel the need to study with him, because for Zhu Jiu, Zu Mengxu was just a chance encounter arranged by fate.
At this moment, Zhu Jiu suddenly remembered that someone had told her many years ago that maybe one day the one she didn't trust and guarded against would be the most likely person to become her destined nobleman.
