"Grandpa, my father and mother are gone, you and your uncle are Junbao's only relatives, and I can't watch you have an accident anymore. As long as we live, one day, we will be able to regain what we have lost."

Xiao Qinglin looked at the tenacity and bravery in the young man's eyes, and nodded comfortingly. This kid didn't disappoint him, he will be the future of Donghua and the hope of the people of the world.

"Prince, the future of Donghua Kingdom depends on you, no matter what, you have to live well, so that your father can feel at ease, and your grandfather can have no worries." In fact, he didn't want the prince to take risks for him at all, because his life was too precious, how could he take risks casually?

"Grandpa, don't worry, we also have a successful plan before we start. And if Junbao wants to regain the throne, he can't do without the support of you and your uncle."

Xiao Qinglin raised his eyebrows, and then remembered something, "This time the plan is you thinking alone?"

"It's Chu Xia, and the gunpowder is made by her." Originally, he was going to save his grandfather in person, but Chu Xia and Yun Fei didn't allow him to come forward, so he could only sit in the carriage and watch everything.

I have to say that the moment the explosion sounded, his heart was also shocked, I really didn't expect that this woman would have such ability. It seems that she really underestimated her before, or the queen mother was prescient.

Xiao Qinglin's eyes flashed with surprise, looking at the wind and clouds, he can be regarded as knowing countless people. But this is the first time he has seen such a powerful weapon. Even people who have been fighting on the battlefield all year round do not necessarily have such courage. How could a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl come up with it?

"What is the origin of this woman? Is she really reliable?" Although she had already made her position clear, he did not dare to risk the prince's life for the sake of prudence.

Jing Yuan also doubted her identity, but it didn't matter anymore because she now had a new identity.

"She was given to me by the Queen Mother."

What? Xiao Qinglin's eyes widened in astonishment, and he glanced at the girl who was desperately rushing out of the encirclement outside, and the heroic girl was sassy. She is like a devil who has come out of hell, with a knife in her hand, without a trace of neglect and pity; In the blink of an eye, that bright smile was like a fairy who had fallen into the world. Angels and demons are perfectly interpreted in the same person at this moment.

That's right! Only such a woman is worthy of standing by the prince's side, and only such a woman can assist the prince in completing the great cause.

It's just that the age gap is a bit big, but there is no way, after all, there is no way to choose.

All the way, the snow kept falling, the sky and the earth were white, the air condensed into ice, but the heart was full of passion.

A few hours later, the first light of day dawned and the sky was white, and the snow had gradually stopped.

It's easier to travel during the day than at night, but the road is too slippery after the snow to go fast.

I don't know how far they have escaped from the capital, and those pursuers have long been thrown far away by them, but they don't dare to stop.

Finally, people were sleepy and tired, and it was almost dusk. Everyone decided to stop and rest, so that they could have the strength to drive down the next stretch.

Yun Fei and Tie Weimen go to find food, while Xiao Yulang is in charge of lighting the fire. Xiao Qinglin used tree branches on the ground to draw a map from here to southern Xinjiang. Jing Yuan is still young, basically has never traveled far, and his knowledge of geography is only theoretical. That's why the old prime minister carefully explained to him the cities, mountains, and officials they had to go through. Originally, most of them should have had some friendship with him, after all, they have been in the court for many years, and they are in a high position, and there are not a few who want to make friends with him.

It's just a moment and that time, after all, everyone likes the icing on the cake, and there are few charcoal in the snow, so it's good not to fall into the well. So they won't help, even if they are sincere, Chu Cangmo has already replaced him with his henchmen.

Jing Yuan understands these truths, and they have to rely on themselves for everything now.

Because it was winter and it had just snowed, it was difficult to find living creatures in the woods, so they managed to pull out a few squirrels from the hollows of the trees, as well as a few frogs and snakes that were hibernating. When hunger and cold are pressing, everyone can only choose to eat when they are hungry, but fortunately, Chu Xia is not an ordinary lady, and she has strong adaptability and can follow

Peaceful.

Xiao Yulang gave the baked food to Chu Xia, I don't know if it was roasted by the fire, Junyi's face was red.

Chu Xia thanked him and took the food, but instead of eating it, she sent it to Jing Yuan, she was now used to taking him as her responsibility and taking care of him like a big sister.

The young man was originally a little depressed, but seeing that she would rather be hungry than give him food, his heart suddenly warmed a lot. But he didn't eat alone, but divided it in half, so that everyone could eat.

Chu Xia was not polite, sitting beside him, eating food that was not delicious.

Soon another food was cooked, and Xiao Yulang was about to get up and send it to Chu Xia, but was stopped by his father.

"Do you know what the relationship between Chu Xia and the crown prince is?"

Xiao Yulang looked at his father blankly, he really couldn't say this.

"Chu Xia is the future crown princess who was given by the queen mother to marry the crown prince."

"Smack!" The thing in his hand fell to the ground, and Xiao Yulang only felt that a certain string in his heart was broken, although it was not bone-chilling, but it was faintly painful.

Knowing the son is more than the father. How could Xiao Qinglin not be able to see his son's thoughts, he could see it in the dungeon, but he didn't plan to stop it at that time. First, if they die, this thought can only be buried in their hearts forever, and there is nothing wrong with having a thought. Second, if they did get out by luck, he wouldn't mind forming this family affair.

It's just that it's different now, after listening to the prince's words, he knows that they have this relationship, and he must not let his son have this kind of mind again. The woman was nice, but not what he should have thought.

He didn't say anything more, he didn't want to embarrass him, but he knew Yi Yulang's calmness and knew what he should do.

The cold wind howled, scraping like a knife on the face, almost scraping off a layer of skin.

At this time, Xiao Yulang, who was standing on the tuyere, seemed to have lost his intuition. In his nearly 20 years of life, from the time he was sensible, his father taught him how to be a useful person to the country, and his duty was to protect the country of Donghua and protect the prince to grow up.

He practiced and studied diligently every day, but he didn't want others to say that he had a way out because of his father's relationship. So he works hard and is not afraid of hard work, and his harvest is also proportional to his efforts.

Over the years, his mind has been used to revitalize the country and Anbang, not that no woman has shown love to him, but he has no feelings for them, so everything is for the sake of meritorious service.

But since meeting the woman, his heart has fallen uncontrollably. She was so beautiful, so clean, so aura that he had never seen in any other woman.

At that moment, he had a strong desire in his heart to be with her for the rest of his life.

It's just that what happened later made him dare not think about it, he knew that he had no chance, because he couldn't give her anything.

She pretended to be his sweetheart to come to see him that day, and she wouldn't know the nervousness and excitement in her heart. Especially when her warm little hand touched his palm, there was a warm current that hit the depths of his heart. That feeling has never been there, if at first he just liked her looks, her ethereal temperament, then then he really fell in love with this smart, wise, courageous, but righteous woman.

This time he escaped death, he thought he had another chance, but his father's words were like a basin of ruthless cold water that extinguished all his enthusiasm.

That woman wasn't what he should have thought, they were doomed. Let him bury this love in his heart forever, this is his secret.

"Xiao Yulang, why are you standing here alone?"

After settling everything, Chu Xia wanted to come out to breathe, but found that Xiao Yulang was standing in the tuyere like a wooden stake, he must be sentry for them, right? It's not easy to be so cold.

The man's straight back stiffened, then turned around casually.

greeted with a smile: "Miss Chu, why haven't you rested yet?"

I may be accustomed to the nightlife in modern times, and although I haven't had a good rest from last night to now, I don't feel sleepy at all.

"I can't sleep and come out

Let's go, where are we now?" Standing at the post and looking down, a piece of silver was wrapped, only a bright moon in the sky sprinkled a clear light.

"It's about 400 miles away from the capital, and it's Anyang City moving forward." Looking ahead, the man and the girl distanced themselves from each other.

If it weren't for the wind and snow, the roads were muddy and they would have been able to go farther.

"Are we going to Anyang next?"

"Yes. There should already be officers and soldiers waiting for us there." Xiao Yulang's voice was very heavy, this was just the beginning, and he didn't know how many difficulties he would face in the future.

Do you think you'll be safe when you leave the capital? But forgetting that the world is so big, it is not the king's land, Chu Xia couldn't help but sigh for the unknown fate.

After hesitating for a long time, I still asked.

"I heard that the queen has given you and the crown prince a marriage?" He said this with a smile, but he felt a little bitter in his heart.

Chu Xia was a little embarrassed, this was the first time someone had brought it to the table.

"If you don't say I've forgotten about it."

The man looked at her in astonishment, how could she forget such a serious matter?

The girl smiled embarrassedly, she herself felt very ridiculous, "Actually, Niangniang just wants me to take care of Junbao, she is afraid that I will leave him alone, right?" What could I say in that situation? But the age difference between me and the crown prince is too far, how can it be, when he grows up, I will be old, and if he does not want to marry me, I will suffer a great loss."

She really didn't take it to heart because she believed she wasn't going to stay here forever. And with Junbao's current age, he doesn't understand what the relationship between men and women is, and he will naturally understand when he grows up.
