Zhu Lan, who left the palace gate, walked aimlessly on the street, the street was sparsely populated, although his mind was blank, but his footsteps involuntarily walked in the direction of the north of the city, he knew that his eldest brother had been sticking to the city tower for several days without sleep, and he wanted to go and see.

As soon as he walked out not far away, a crisp call came: "Second brother!" Zhu Lan followed the call, only to see a little girl dressed in gorgeous brocade and with a flushed face running over.

Zhu Lan was a little surprised, and said in surprise: "Coco?" He looked around again, and asked again: "Why did you come back alone, what about your mother?"

The person who came was Zhu Keke, the youngest daughter of the Zhu family, more than two months ago, Mrs. Zhu took her little daughter back to her parents' house to visit relatives, and later due to the sudden changes in the palace, the mother's family was also afraid of causing trouble, so they kept the mother and daughter and did not let them go back to Diyun City, who knew that this little girl actually ran back secretly by herself.

"Grandpa and grandma wouldn't let us come back, so I ran back by myself. Zhu Keke pouted.

Zhu Lan couldn't cry or laugh a little, this little sister has been pampered since she was a child, impatient and willful, this time she really played her own way and ran back, she must have made the family anxious.

Zhu Lan was also a little anxious in his heart, because he knew that the current situation was not optimistic, and the little sister would only increase the danger if she ran back at this time, so he couldn't help but reproach: "What are you doing when you come back at this time? Don't you know that it is very dangerous in the city now?"

Zhu Keke asked anxiously: "I heard a lot of news on the road, and I almost know the general situation of the matter, second brother, what is going on, is the third prince rebelling or is the father rebelling?"

Zhu Lan made a boo gesture and said in a low voice: "Don't shout this kind of thing. ”

Zhu Keke said regardless of it: "Everyone is knocking on the door, what else can't be said, second brother, tell me honestly, is it my father's ghost this time!"

As soon as Zhu Lan heard this, he hurriedly went to cover her mouth, and looked around to see that no one was looking this way, and then scolded in a low voice: "You are crazy! You dare to talk nonsense in front of the public!"

Zhu Keke pulled his hand away: "How can there be any public, the common people are running and hiding, how can anyone eavesdropping......"

Zhu Lan felt that his head was as big as a fight, and quickly pulled her aside, but Zhu Keke still didn't give up: "Second brother, are you weak-hearted, make such a big incident, and you will be killed if you rebel!"

Zhu Lan said: "The second brother doesn't know what happened, it was all arranged by my father, and the matter has come to this point, so don't come to this troubled water, go back quickly." ”

Zhu Coco flicked his sleeves, "I don't!"

Zhu Lan said helplessly: "Then what do you want? You can't help much, and now I can't even help the second brother." ”

"I'm going to come back and find out what's going on! If it's really our family's ghost, I have nothing to say, it's a big deal to die with you, if our family is innocent, I'll fight side by side with you and fight to the end!"

Zhu Lan shook his head and said: "Keke, you are too naïve, so far, it doesn't matter who is the king or the loser?"

"Of course it's important!" Zhu Keke said, "If people are alive, they must be fair, right and wrong, if justice is not on our side, how can we have the confidence to fight others, and why should the soldiers fight for us?"

Zhu Lan was dumbfounded for a while, although what Xiaomei said sounded to him as just some empty clichés, but the firm and upright demeanor when she spoke deeply infected him, and he suddenly felt that he had lived in vain for more than 20 years, and he was not as good as a sixteen-year-old girl.

Zhu Keke pulled him to the palace: "Since you don't know what happened, then let's go into the palace to find my father and ask for an understanding!"

Beside the official road leading from Diyun City to Lingqiu City, surrounded by green trees and grass, Gao Fei and Lin Qianyuan led the horse for a while, tied the horse to the side of the road and sat down.

"It's not too early, it's time for me to go, my dad is still looking forward to my coming home." Lin Qianxuan snuggled in Gao Fei's arms, his eyes were misty, and his face was full of happiness.

"Would you like to sit a little longer, just a little longer. Goofy gently held on.

"Alright. Lin Qianjiao smiled and sat up, "Why do you look like a big girl who squirms, I know that you are about to win the battle, and when you return to Diyun City, don't we still have a lot of time?"

Goofy smiled reluctantly and nodded slightly, "Yes, we still have a lot of time. ”

"Yes, even if I marry the princess of Qingqiu Kingdom, I can still be with Qianyuan, can't I?" Gao Fei said to himself in his heart, he let go of the hand holding Lin Qianyuan, and gently commanded: "Then you go home quickly, don't let your father worry too much." ”

Lin Qianyuan stood up and looked down at Gao Fei, who was still sitting on the grass, "Aren't you leaving?"

Goofy smiled, "I'm not in a hurry, I want to watch you go." ”

Lin Qianyuan smiled proudly and said, "It's okay, I watched you go last time, and this time you should see me go." ”

Gao Fei also smiled: "Yes, it's fair. ”

Lin Qianyuan stepped on the horse, turned his head and glanced at Gao Fei reluctantly, and smiled sweetly: "Then I'll go." ”

Goofy smiled and bowed, his eyes full of pampering, "Go ahead." ”

Lin Qian left, Gao Fei stared at her back, but unfortunately the morning fog was getting thicker, and her figure disappeared quickly, but he looked at the direction she left for a long, long time, as if he wanted to keep looking like this, forever.

A huge sense of loss suddenly surged in his heart, and along with the sense of loss, there was a faint uneasiness that he had before.

The uneasiness seems to be stronger than before.

A trace of fear welled up in his heart for no apparent reason, and he suddenly felt that this might be the last time he would see this girl again.

Lin Qianyuan was the opposite, her heart was full of joy, and she even wanted to sing loudly.

Because everything was better than she expected, Goofy had become the king, and had taken the initiative in the situation, and would soon win the war, and more importantly, although he described him as a little haggard, he was in good spirits, not as melancholy and silent as before, and deliberately kept his distance from her, and he was even flirting with himself now as before.

Thinking of this, the corners of Lin Qianyuan's mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly, and she felt that the once familiar Ah Fei was coming back.

And at this moment, Mu Yunhuang, who was far away on Qingqiu Mountain, was sitting on a boulder at the top of the mountain and looking down at the mountain, she seemed to be looking at the place where Gao Fei and Lin Qianyuan were separated, Xiao Fei was lying at her feet and falling asleep, and her eyes flashed with tears of sadness.

She whispered, "Sister, I'm sorry, I saw the end, but I can't tell you......"

Diyun City, Guogong Mansion.

Zhu Keke dragged Zhu Lan all the way into the mansion, and as soon as he entered the door, he shouted loudly: "Manager Zhang!

A middle-aged man with a round face and a short beard greeted him, and said with a smile: "Miss, why are you back at this time?"

Zhu Keke ignored him, but asked loudly, "Where is my father?"

Manager Zhang was accustomed to the temper of this unruly young lady, and replied respectfully: "The master is in the study, but the master instructed that now he has something important to do, and no one will see him, not even the two sons." As he spoke, he raised his upper eyelids and glanced at Zhu Lan.

Zhu Keke really ignored it, and pulled Zhu Lan to the direction of the study.

Manager Zhang had to follow behind and persuade him: "Miss, since the master has ordered so, you just wait outside for a while, so as not to make the master angry......"

Zhu Lan also stopped and pulled her, "Otherwise, let's wait for a while." ”

Zhu Keke shook off Zhu Lan's hand and said, "Okay, since my father said that I won't let you two brothers go to see him, then I'll go alone." After speaking, he glared at Mr. Zhang: "The master said that even the two sons are not allowed, and he didn't say that the young lady is not allowed, right?"

Mr. Zhang resignedly said: "The master didn't say it, but the master said that no one would see ......."

Zhu Keke's eyes widened: "I'm not 'anyone', I'm the third lady of the Guogong Mansion!"

"Hey......" Manager Zhang wanted to persuade him, but when he saw Zhu Keke, he turned around again, raised his slap and said fiercely: "If you dare to stop me again, believe it or not, I will beat you!"

Seeing this, Manager Zhang had no choice but to shut up, and followed Zhu Keke with Zhu Lan to the outside of the study, he didn't dare to go in, and he didn't dare to stop her, so he had to stay outside the door.

Zhu Keke broke into the study, looked around, and shouted: "Dad, I'm Coco, I'm back!"

The study was empty.

Zhu Keke felt very strange, how could there be no one? Could it be that Manager Zhang was lying? She called out a few more times: "Dad, are you there?"

Still no response.

"Damn old man Zhang, you dare to lie to me!" She was about to go out to settle accounts with Manager Zhang, and just walked to the door of the study, she suddenly felt a chill behind her, and when she looked back, she saw Zhu Ning appear behind the desk at some point, and her eyes shot like a poisonous snake, which made people shudder.

Zhu Keke was startled, but he still greeted him with a smile, "Dad, why didn't you say hello, it scared me." ”

The corners of Zhu Ning's mouth picked up slightly, barely squeezing out a smile, and asked as gently as possible: "Why are you back, where is your mother?"

Zhu Keke swept away the arrogance just now, and his voice was weak like a mosquito humming, "My mother is still at my grandfather's house, and I ran back secretly." ”

Zhu Ning didn't react, nodded slightly, and sat down slowly, as if he had known all this for a long time, and just asked casually and perfunctorily.

Zhu Keke tiptoed over and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you angry?"

Zhu Ning didn't answer, and asked quietly: "You came to find your father, what's the matter?"

"I ......" Zhu Keke hesitated again when the words came to his lips, and asked in a hesitant manner, "Dad, I heard a lot of rumors on the road, saying that you intended to rebel...... Uh, and then blame the third prince, is it?"

"It's not. Zhu Ning replied lightly.

"Really, isn't it?"

"Not really. Zhu Ning looked at her daughter's eyes seriously and replied word by word.

Zhu Keke breathed a long sigh of relief and smiled as if relieved: "Then I'll rest assured." ”

"Nothing else?" Zhu Ning asked again.

"Hmm......" Zhu Keke thought for a while, and suddenly walked in the direction of the desk where Zhu Ning had just appeared, "Dad, how did you suddenly come out of here just now, did you get some mechanism?"

Zhu Ning turned his head violently, and his eyes shot like electricity, but he quickly retracted it. He slowly stood up, walked slowly over to his daughter, and slowly replied, "Yes, Coco is really smart." ”

A smile slowly appeared on his face, and his hoarse voice became softer at this time. Zhu Lan, who left the palace gate, walked aimlessly on the street, the street was sparsely populated, although his mind was blank, but his footsteps involuntarily walked in the direction of the north of the city, he knew that his eldest brother had been sticking to the city tower for several days without sleep, and he wanted to go and see.
