Chapter 202

"I will arrange someone to pick Hongzhu up, you don't have to worry about anything else." Qin Yiran said.

He looked straight ahead and walked hurriedly.

"Where do you live now?" Liu Yingyue broke the silence when she saw that he had been silent.

Qin Yiran didn't seem to want to talk much, but Liu Yingyue kept asking, so he had to say, "Yingyue, it's dangerous here. You and Hongzhu should leave here immediately, and leave tonight."

"I have arranged everything for the farm. I want to be with you." Liu Yingyue stopped, grabbed Qin Yiran's hand and said, "I know you are in danger now, but we are husband and wife. How can I enjoy myself at home if you are in danger?"

The night was as dark as ink, pitch black, as if a huge black cloth covered the entire world.

The two stood in the darkness, unable to see each other's face. Only the heavy breathing allowed them to truly feel each other's presence.

"You want to follow me?" Qin Yiran's voice was as calm as water, but if you listened carefully, you could detect a hint of sarcasm in it.

Liu Yingyue raised her head and looked firmly in the direction of Qin Yiran, saying without flinching, "I am no less capable than Qiu Shuixian. I can do what she can do. You can rest assured to leave the task to me. Just now, I successfully sneaked into the Lin'an Palace and not only met the Princess of Lin'an, but also learned a secret hidden deep in her heart."

"I have also heard about the secrets of the Lin'an Palace. Yingyue, no need to say anything more, go back immediately!" Qin Yiran's tone became stern, and at the same time, he tightly grasped Liu Yingyue's wrist and stepped forward.

Liu Yingyue narrowed her eyes slightly, a hint of doubt and unwillingness flashed across her eyes, and asked: "How did you know this secret? What exactly is the secret you are talking about?"

Facing Liu Yingyue's questioning, Qin Yiran was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and said in a low voice: "You don't need to ask about this matter, just leave quickly." After that, he took Liu Yingyue's hand and continued to walk forward without stopping.

On the long street, the sound of horse hooves came from far away and then got closer.

If you listen more carefully, you can detect the crisp sound mixed in - it turns out to be the sound of the sword and spurs colliding with each other.

Judging from these noises alone, the person coming was definitely not an ordinary passerby, but a guard responsible for patrolling the city.

Seeing this, Qin Yiran made a prompt decision. He grabbed Liu Yingyue beside him and slipped into a dark and narrow alley nearby to avoid the approaching patrol soldiers.

Liu Yingyue tightly grasped his arm and said with a worried look on her face: "Qiu Shuixian is missing, and the room caught fire for no apparent reason. Both the Princess of Lin'an and the King of Lin'an will definitely not give up easily. They will definitely send a large number of people to search everywhere. It will be difficult to escort me out of the city safely. Why don't we wait until tomorrow to make a long-term plan."

However, Qin Yiran was not shaken by her words. He just turned his head and looked outside the alley, and responded firmly: "Don't worry, since I said I can send you out of the city, I will naturally have a way to deal with it. You don't need to worry too much."

Faced with his stubborn attitude, Liu Yingyue wanted to find other excuses to persuade him.

But Qin Yiran suddenly shouted in a low voice: "Someone is coming!"

Then, without hesitation, he took Liu Yingyue's hand again, walked quickly out of the alley, and continued to move forward with the help of the faint candlelight projected from the shops on both sides of the street.

Although the light around was as dim as if it had been stained with ink, Qin Yiran seemed to be walking on a bustling street in the daytime. He led Liu Yingyue into a narrow and dark alley with ease.
