The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 95

Cui Hengyue clenched the dagger tightly, got off the bed lightly, walked quietly to the door, put her ear on the door, and listened to the movement outside.

It seemed that someone came out of the next room, and there was more than one person. Their footsteps were very light, as if they were doing it deliberately.

Could it be that a thief sneaked into Mrs. Cui's room?

Thinking of this, Cui Hengyue felt worried. She gently opened the door and looked out, only to find that the people who came out of Mrs. Cui's room were not a thief, but Xiuyun and Wutong.

It's so late, they don't sleep, what are they doing in Mrs. Cui's room?
Could it be Mrs. Cui who summoned them?
But why did Mrs. Cui summon them in the middle of the night?

Is there something unspeakable?
Cui Hengyue's eyes lit up, and she instinctively felt that this matter could help her gain a foothold in the Cui family's big house, so she quietly went after Xiuyun and Wutong.

Following them all the way to the corner of the veranda, Cui Hengyue raised her foot and was about to turn out, when she saw Xiuyun and Wutong standing in front of her, she quickly withdrew her foot and hid her body in the darkness.

They seemed to be talking about something, Cui Hengyue listened intently.

".It made me laugh so hard. She covered up all the way and thought she was hiding well. Don't you know that our wife is so smart that she has already seen through her identity, but she didn't expose her, haha"

Cui Hengyue froze immediately.

what?
Mrs. Cui has already seen through her identity?
Now that you know her identity, why don't you recognize her?

Is it because the Cui family doesn't want her to go back?

At this time, a deep voice sounded, it was Xiuyun: "Madam ordered that she can no longer go to Yunxuan Temple.

"Tomorrow we will arrive at Yunxuan Temple, so tonight we must complete the errands assigned by Madam."

There was a moment of silence.

Immediately, Wutong's voice sounded again: "Simply, let's do one thing and keep doing the other."

Suddenly there was a slight sound of footsteps, and they were getting closer and closer. They were coming in Cui Hengyue's direction, and Cui Hengyue hurriedly ran back.

But she didn't return to the room, but climbed the pillar and jumped to the roof.

She lay on the roof and looked around, and found that there were only two guards at the gate of the courtyard, while Zeng Ming and other guards were scattered outside the courtyard.

Their positions seem to be loose and irregular, but they are actually blocking the exits in all directions. Once someone escapes from the yard, whether through the door or over the wall, they will find out immediately people.

And Zeng Ming's location is closest to her room, if she chooses the shortest route to climb over the wall, she will definitely bump into Zeng Ming.

So, were their defenses against her?

Cui Hengyue's eyes shifted, and she noticed that Xiuyun and Wutong had sneaked up to her door, then pushed open her door sneakily, and walked in tiptoe.

They really wanted to kill her.

After a few breaths, Wutong and Xiuyun ran out of Cui Hengyue's room, shouting in panic: "It's not good, she ran away!"

At the same time, Zeng Ming and the guards outside the courtyard climbed over the wall and ran towards her room.

Seeing this, Cui Hengyue's eyes flashed a trace of disappointment, and then fled the inn taking advantage of the chaos.

Cui Hengyue didn't turn her head to observe the situation behind until she fled the inn tens of feet away. There was no one in the empty street.

It seems that she has successfully escaped their pursuit.

Cui Hengyue stopped, found a safe corner to sit down, and thought about where to go next.

First of all, she was penniless and had no money to live in a hotel.

Secondly, the Cui family seems to be very powerful. Even if they are not in Jinyang, the capital, but in a small town in Yunzhou, Mrs. Cui can still receive great attention.

If Mrs. Cui mobilizes the officials of Mingyang Town to arrest her, then she will definitely not be able to escape, and there are people from the King of Chu nearby who are searching for her.

The most important thing is that Mrs. Cui is not trying to catch her, but to kill her.

When Cui Hengyue thought of this, a wave of anger gushed out from the bottom of her heart and rushed straight to the top of her head.

The little lunatic is just a little girl who is not as good as she was, and she was abandoned by the Cui family since she was a child. As a daughter of a family, she has never received the protection of the family, nor has she ever enjoyed the glory and wealth of the family. Family hunt.

The people of Cui's family are too vicious
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside the alley.

Cui Hengyue was startled, she got up and walked to the alley, carefully poking her head to look outside.

There were more than a dozen strong men standing on the street, and many of them were holding portraits in their hands. Under the moonlight, Cui Hengyue found that the people in the portraits seemed to resemble her.

Cui Hengyue's body stiffened instantly.

It is the people of King Chu, they found here.

"Have you found anyone?" asked the leader who was surrounded in the middle.

The nearest brawny man replied: "I've searched for houses and shops in the south, but I haven't found Cui Hengyue."

Immediately afterwards, someone replied: "I searched all the places west of Mingyang Town, but I couldn't find Cui Hengyue."

"nor the east side"

The leader was silent for a moment, then waved to everyone: "All follow me."

A group of people headed to the north in a mighty way.

Cui Hengyue stood still, waited for a while, heard a knock on the door from the north, and then heard the leader's voice: "Sorry for the trouble.

"The little lady in our house originally wanted to go to Yunxuan Temple to offer incense, but she accidentally got separated while passing here. Our Alang was worried that the little lady would be taken away by kidnappers, so he ordered me to wait all night to look for it, and please don't blame me.

"This is a portrait of the little lady in our house. Sir, please take a closer look. Have you seen her today, or has she been to your house?"

Another voice sounded: "Mingyang Town has been protected by the King of Chu all year round, the kidnappers dare not come here, it is impossible for the little lady in your house to be taken away by the kidnappers, she must have lost her way.

"Don't worry, wait for me to take a good look"

Hearing this, Cui Hengyue no longer doubted, walked out of the alley, and jumped to the south.

After she landed from the Ganges River, she saw Yunlin leading troops to search for her, and the foot of the mountain was also full of King Chu's soldiers.

In order to avoid Yunlin's pursuit, she was forced to come to Mingyang Town. If she left Mingyang Town at this time, she would definitely be caught by King Chu's men.

Therefore, it is safest for her to stay in Mingyang Town. Once the limelight passes, she will leave here and go to Jinyang.

Now, the area to the south of Mingyang Town has been found by the people of the King of Chu, so they will not come here again. It must be safe for her to hide here.

Cui Hengyue hid in the darkness and walked forward cautiously.

After walking a certain distance, Cui Hengyue stopped suddenly, looked down at the growling belly, feeling a little helpless.

She is hungry.

But she is penniless and has no money to buy food. If she still has her purse, the pastries in it can still fill her stomach.

Unfortunately, the purse was washed away by the flood.

What's more, it's so late, and there are no inns and shops open, where can she get food?
Cui Hengyue raised her head and looked around.

Suddenly, her gaze was fixed somewhere.

Fulai Inn?

Isn't that the inn that the man in black who helped her escape from the South Palace said?
He said that if she needs help, she can go to Fulai Inn to find shopkeeper Sun.

Can she trust him?
Cui Hengyue thought about it again, although she didn't know the identity of the man in black, but he helped her escape from the South Palace, and said that her mother was kind to him, so he should be trustworthy
After some deliberation, Cui Hengyue decided to advance to the inn to investigate.

She quietly walked around to the backyard of the Fulai Inn, climbed over the wall and entered the inn.

However, just when Cui Hengyue was about to look around, he was discovered by the staff.

"Who are you? Why did you climb over the wall?"
