Chapter 26 Trying to Escape
In the evening, Yun Sheng came over with his maid, holding the soup she made by herself, and said to Feng Junyang with a smile: "Cousin, I made this for you with my own hands, try it, does it taste better than the one made by Shunping?" Much better?"

The decoction made from the same recipe, no matter who made it, the taste could be very bad. She said this clearly to coax Feng Junyang to take the medicine.Feng Junyang couldn't bear to refuse her kindness, took the medicine bowl and drank the medicine, and said, "It's better than Shunping boiled."

After being praised by him, Yunsheng got overjoyed for a moment, and accidentally told the truth: "That's right, I watched them cook without blinking, and the heat is the best!"

Feng Junyang frowned slightly when he heard this.Seeing him like this, Shunping followed suit, busy clearing his throat and winking at Yunsheng.Yun Sheng looked at it strangely, and asked him, "Shunping, what do you want to tell me? To put it bluntly, my cousin is not an outsider."

Shunping heard the words and replied with a bitter face on purpose: "Miss Yunsheng, just now you told Shi Ziye that you boiled the medicine yourself, why did you watch them boil it without blinking?"

Yun Sheng was taken aback for a moment, quickly covered his mouth with his hand, and smiled at Feng Junyang, "Ah, I accidentally missed it."

Feng Junyang smiled: "It's okay, it's not easy for your eldest lady to watch over the medicine."

Seeing his smile, Yun Sheng was very happy, so he talked more, chatting with Feng Junyang for half an hour, talking all the way from Qingzhou to Shengdu, until it was dark outside, he took his maid and left .Shunping sent Yunsheng out for Feng Junyang, and when he turned back, he saw Feng Junyang's eyes were gloomy, and the smile on his face had long since faded away.He was secretly worried, when he heard Feng Junyang order lightly: "Go and kneel outside the door for an hour before coming in."

Shunping didn't dare to disobey his orders, didn't even dare to ask why, bowed his head out of the door and knelt in the porch, until he knelt for an hour, then carefully entered the house, but he didn't dare to look down. Take a look at Feng Junyang.

Feng Junyang asked: "Do you know what's wrong?"

Shunping knelt down again, and replied in a low voice: "Young man thinks he's smart."

Feng Junyang said coldly: "You are by my side, you are my confidant, if you can't even guess my thoughts, how can you be my confidant?"

Shunping was so frightened that he hurriedly fell on the ground: "Master, I know I was wrong."

After a while, I heard Feng Junyang say lightly: "Get up."

Shunping hurriedly got up carefully, and stood there with his hands down for a moment, seeing that Feng Junyang had no other orders, he bowed and carefully backed out.As soon as he got out of the room, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and beckoned other servants to come over and listen to Feng Junyang's order in the corridor, while he himself hurried to Chen Nian's residence.

Compared with the bright lights in Feng Junyang's courtyard, Chennian's small courtyard was much darker. Except for the two bright lanterns at the courtyard gate, the rooms in the courtyard were all completely dark.The new maid greeted him lightly from the courtyard, bowed her knees to Shunping and gave her a blessing, and softly called, "Master Ping."

Last night, the two maids around Chen Nian had all been replaced, and now this maid was personally arranged by Shun Ping, she was said to be a maid, but in fact she was a secret guard trained by the palace, and they all had kung fu.Shunping glanced in the direction of the main room, and asked her in a low voice: "How is it?"

The maid replied: "I am willing to eat dinner. After dinner, I walked around the courtyard twice, but I still refused to ask anyone to come in to serve me."

Shunping nodded, thought for a while, and confessed: "Look carefully, you must not be contemptuous in the slightest, and report to me quickly if there is something wrong."

The maid respectfully complied, and then Shunping went back to Feng Junyang's place, and carefully told him the situation at Chennian's place without waiting for him to ask.Only then did Feng Junyang's expression soften a little, and he waved to him: "Understood, let's go down."

Shunping wiped off his cold sweat when he came out, and when he saw Zheng Lun in private, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "That master really put Miss Xie on the top of his mind, and he can't allow others to treat him in the slightest. If it weren't for the difference in status She's too big, so she might be able to remarry without hesitation and come back to be the concubine. But Miss Xie looks easy-going on weekdays, but she is not at all soft-hearted when she is ruthless, so she directly stabs the master with a knife. Alas, just this temper , just wait and see, even if Miss Yunsheng can tolerate her, when she returns to the palace, there will be troubles."

Zheng Lun's thick eyebrows were frowned, and he was silent for a while, before he said in a low voice, "I'm just complaining for Miss Yunsheng."

Hearing the words, Shunping glanced at Zheng Lun, opened his mouth but suppressed the words again, thought for a while, and then said in a low voice: "Let me tell you something, what I mean by looking at Shizi is I want to keep you in Qingzhou, not to follow you to Shengdu."

"Stay in Qingzhou?" Zheng Lun was a little surprised. As Feng Junyang's bodyguard commander, he was supposed to be by Feng Junyang's side. How could he stay in Qingzhou?

Shunping said: "Yang Cheng died in Feilongxing. Although he put his hat on Qingfengzhai's head, the Zhang family in Jingyang is not a fool. How can they not see through these things? They will definitely not let it go. My lord Going to Shengdu was also to resolve this matter, and wanted to make the ownership of Qingzhou a firm matter. He was not at ease here in Qingzhou, and he decided to leave his cronies in Qingzhou. He said it was to assist Xue Shengying in command of the army, but in fact it was also to control him. "

Zheng Lun nodded slowly: "I know."

Shunping looked at him, but leaned close to him and whispered: "You don't know."

Zheng Lun looked at him suspiciously.

Shunping walked to the door, glanced carefully outside the door, saw that there were no other figures around, then closed the door, turned around and said to Zheng Lun in a low voice: "Seeing that we have been through the wind and rain together for many years, I will only tell you this once, if you can listen to it, listen to it, and if you can’t listen to it, let it go. Zheng Lun, if you stay in Qingzhou as a general, you will be different from me from then on. You are a foreign general, and you will be even more so in the future. The minister of the son of the son, you must never say anything more about the injustice. I am the slave of the son of the son. As long as I serve him personally, I will inevitably have to deal with his backyard in the future. Even if there is a little mistake, the son of the son will tolerate me But you are different, your master can only be the son of the world, whether it is Miss Yunsheng or Miss Xie, it has nothing to do with you. No matter what kind of thoughts you have about Miss Yunsheng—"

"Shunping!" Zheng Lun interrupted Shunping angrily, and said anxiously, "What nonsense are you talking about! How have I ever thought about Miss Yunsheng!"

"Nothing is the best!" Shunping comforted him with a smile, stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder, and said with a smile, "Based on our grandson's ambition, you will inevitably follow in the future, and the glory is still to come."

Zheng Lun didn't see any joy on his face, he just pursed his lips and said nothing.Seeing this, Shunping sighed softly, didn't persuade him anymore, and led him to the door and went out.Zheng Lun was sleepless for half the night, and he let out a long breath at about five o'clock, put away all distracting thoughts in his mind, and fell asleep on the bed, pulled the quilt over his head and fell asleep.

On the street, there was faint drumming sound of one fast and four slow ones. It was just the beginning of the day, and the servants everywhere were already getting ready to get up, but the night watchman who had stayed up all night had reached the most sleepy time.Chen Nian recharged her energy for most of the night, waiting for this moment, she quietly got up from the bed, and walked to the door lightly, who knew that the maid who had just opened the door had already greeted her. , lowered his eyebrows and asked meekly: "What is the girl's order?"

Chen Nian stood with his hands on the door frame for a while, then said in a cold voice, "No."

After she finished speaking, she went out of the room to fight in the yard.The maid didn't come forward when she saw this, she just prepared water and a handkerchief and waited aside, and when Chen Nian finished punching, she came over with a wet handkerchief in her hands.Chen Nian took the handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead, then casually glanced at the maid, and asked her, "Are you good at martial arts?"

The maid only hesitated for a moment, then responded humbly: "Only some superficial skills."

"Okay." Chen Nian threw the handkerchief into the basin, took two steps back, and said, "Come on, do a few tricks with me."

The maid was still hesitating, but Chen Nian neatly clasped his fist on his left chest and pushed it out, and then unceremoniously punched her face.The maid hurriedly dodged sideways, and subconsciously reached out to push Chen Nian's arm away, while the other hand leaned toward the space under Chen Nian's rib.Chen Nian smiled, and returned his punches to block, in the blink of an eye, the two had already exchanged several moves in succession.

Chen Nian wanted to test her kung fu, and his moves were quick and ruthless, without mercy.The maid lost her chance, but she quickly calmed down, defusing Chen Nian's attacking moves one by one, and defended impeccably.After another [-] or [-] moves, Chen Nian already knew what he was doing, so he took the lead in closing his fist and leaping away, saying: "I won't fight anymore, I can't beat you."

The maid was afraid of offending Chen Nian, so she hurriedly apologized to her, but Chen Nian said nonchalantly, "It's because I'm not as skilled as others, and it has nothing to do with you."

Seeing that Chen Nian didn't look angry, the maid felt a little relieved, and turned around to bring water to serve Chen Nian to wash up.After breakfast, Shunping sneaked over again, he wanted to call the maid out to ask questions, but Chen Nian saw him and called over.

Shunping had no choice but to step forward and respectfully called "Miss Xie".

Chen Nian looked at him, and after a moment of silence, he asked, "Did your elder son tell me if I could see Lu Xiao?"

Shunping felt dizzy when he heard this, and thought to himself: Auntie, you will really give me a problem, how do you want me to answer you?Do you still need the son to explain this matter?Both of you are frozen like this now, you still go to see Lu Xiao, are you afraid that you won't be so angry that your son vomits blood?Shunping slandered a few words here, then answered Chennian with a low eyebrow and said: "My son has been in a coma since he went back yesterday, and he hasn't had time to explain the little things."

Chen Nian raised his eyebrows slightly, with a little surprise on his face, and asked, "Have you been sleeping all this time?"

Shunping immediately made a bitter face, nodded and said: "You also know that the son's health has not been very good since he came back from the mountain. This time, although the injury was not critical, he lost a lot of blood. The doctor gave him a prescription for nourishing blood. However, he refused to use it, and the younger one refused to listen to his persuasion. He insisted on walking the long distance yesterday, but the wound on his leg burst open again, and he bled a lot when he returned..."

Shunping muttered for a long time, describing Feng Junyang's situation in a horrible way.

It may be useful to use this method on others, but it is a big mistake to use this method on Chen Nian now.She was blinded by the word "love" before, that's why she was deceived by Feng Junyang. Now that she is awake, how can Shunping's words fool her!Chennian saw that Shunping was exaggerating on purpose to make her soft-hearted, and after thinking about it for a while, he decided to follow his plan and acted with him.

Shunping has been secretly observing Chennian's expression, seeing that she frowned as she listened, quickly pinched his thigh secretly, and said with red eyes: "When the little one came in the morning, the prince still had some Feeling confused, I just urged the younger one to come over and tell the girl not to be greedy for cold, and to take a rest before coming in from outside after practicing exercises before eating those iced things."

Chen Nian's eyes were a little dazed, and it took him a while to wake up, and he said: "He doesn't take medicine, you just pinch his nose and forcefully drink it down, anyway, he is also confused, if he asks afterwards, you Just refuse to admit it.”

Shun Ping secretly said: Come on, it's fine if you want to pour water, but if I dare to do this, he will definitely pick my skin off afterwards, without even asking.Although he was thinking this way, hesitant expression appeared on his face, and he said, "Why don't you go back and try?"

Chen Nian seemed to have forgotten about meeting Lu Xiao, and only waved his hands to urge Shunping: "Go, go."

Shunping got her words and quickly turned around and trotted back to Feng Junyang's yard.

Feng Junyang had just drank the soup, and was leaning on the couch to read the military report sent by Xue Shengying's army. After hearing Shunping's report, he threw the jade handle in his hand at him, and softly reprimanded: "Mouthful! nonsense!"

Shunping hurriedly took the jade handle with both hands, and said with a playful smile: "Thank you, my son, for the reward."

Feng Junyang glared at him, but he couldn't help but bend the corner of his mouth first, and asked him: "Did she really say that?"

Shunping chuckled and put the jade piece into his bosom, and replied: "My lord doesn't know, the little one said that my lord lost too much blood and passed out, Miss Xie's eyes were stunned, and then I heard that my lord If you refused to take the medicine, you asked the little one to pinch your nose and pour it down, and told the little one not to be afraid, if you ask about it afterwards, just refuse to admit it."

Only Chen Nian could say such scoundrel words, the corners of Feng Junyang's mouth could not help but increase the arc, and after a while, he asked Shunping again: "She said she wants to see Lu Xiao?"

Shunping nodded, and replied: "Miss Xie said that at the beginning, but after listening to the little one about the injury of the son, she didn't mention it again, as if she forgot it for a while."

Feng Junyang subconsciously raised his hand and touched the wound on his shoulder, and after a moment of silence, he told Shunping, "Go and invite Lu Xiao to my place, and tell him that I have something to discuss with him."

Shunping hurriedly went out to invite Lu Xiao.After a while, Lu Xiao came over with Shunping, and when he entered the door, he saw only Feng Junyang, and asked strangely: "I thought it was Xie Chennian bluffing me again, but I didn't think it was really you. Tell me, what can you do with me?"

Sitting on the couch, Feng Junyang bowed slightly, smiled apologetically at Lu Xiao, and said, "I'm inconvenient in my legs, so I won't get up to greet you, just sit down as you like."

Lu Xiao never paid attention to these things. He pulled a chair and sat down opposite Feng Junyang. He smelled the smell of blood in the air, and asked, "Are you injured?"

Feng Junyang waved his hand to repel Shunping first, and then said lightly: "It's not a problem, it's just some flesh wounds."

Lu Xiao remembered that the mansion was a little chaotic the night before, and he came out to have a look when he heard the commotion, and went back when Shunping said it was all right.Seeing that Feng Junyang was actually injured, he asked Feng Junyang in surprise, "Did the assassin the night before yesterday get hurt? But Shunping said he was fine at the time, how could he still hurt you? Where is Xie Chennian? Is she okay?" ?”

Feng Junyang smiled and shook his head: "There is nothing wrong with Chen Nian."

Only then did Lu Xiao let out a soft "oh", and felt relieved.

Feng Junyang looked at Lu Xiao, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly said: "Actually, my wound was stabbed by Chen Nian."

Lu Xiao was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, looked up at Feng Junyang, and asked in astonishment, "Why did you guys start fighting?"

Feng Junyang sighed softly, and told Lu Xiao that Chen Nian was misled into believing that he was going to marry someone else. He concealed the fact that he really wanted to marry Yun Sheng, and only said that Chen Nian misunderstood him and refused to listen to his explanation, and said: "Brother Lu, I'm not afraid of your jokes, I really don't know what to do with Chen Nian, her temper is cruel and stubborn, she won't even listen to me To put it bluntly, if you stab me twice, you will run away. I really have no choice but to ask someone to temporarily detain her in the yard."

After hearing this, Lu Xiao got a big head, and hurriedly excused: "It's useless for you to tell me these things. I'm also afraid of Xie Chennian. Besides, even if I try to persuade her, she won't listen."

"I don't want Brother Lu to persuade her, I just..." Feng Junyang pursed his lips lightly, and said with some distress, "I'm afraid she will ask Brother Lu to take her away just to get angry with me. The child has a temper and is angry. There is nothing she can't do. If her adoptive father is here, I can ask him to come forward to restrain Chen Nian, but I can't find Mr. Mu right now. If Chen Nian insists on leaving , although I can forcibly stop her, but it is not justifiable after all. Sigh, I really don't know what to do."

Seeing Feng Junyang's appearance, Lu Xiao couldn't help showing some sympathy on his face, he thought for a while and said: "Right now you can only take good care of her first, after a few days her anger dissipates, if you slow down Coax her slowly."

Feng Junyang frowned and sighed, "That's the only way to go." He stopped for a while, then looked up at Lu Xiao, and asked, "Brother Lu, why don't you go over and have a look at Chen Nian, she was still making a fuss just now?" want to see you."

Lu Xiao hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'm not going, maybe it's what you guessed, telling me to leave Qingzhou with her."

Feng Junyang didn't want to but insisted, slowly got up from the couch, and said, "Go, I'll take Brother Lu there."

Lu Xiao couldn't resist him, so he had to follow him to Chennian's small courtyard, and saw that the guards outside the courtyard were much stricter than before.Feng Junyang stopped outside the courtyard, and said to Lu Xiao: "Chen Nian is still angry, so I won't go in to see her, just ask Shunping to send Brother Lu in."

Lu Xiao nodded and followed Shunping into Chen Nian's courtyard.

Chen Nian said that he wanted to see Lu Xiao just as a test, but he didn't want Shunping to actually bring Lu Xiao here.She glanced at Shunping in surprise, seeing that he still had a low-browed and obedient look, and she couldn't see any clues. After thinking about it, she said with a cold face: "Shunping, you go out first, I will I have something to say to Lu Xiao."

Junpei responded respectfully, and actually exited the house.Chen Nian was surprised, he carefully pulled Lu Xiao aside, and asked in a low voice, "What's going on? How could they let you in so easily to see me?"

Lu Xiao asked back, "Why didn't they let me in to see you?"

Chen Nian couldn't help but frowned, cast a sidelong glance at Lu Xiao, and asked again: "Did you come looking for me on your own initiative, or did they bring you here?"

Lu Xiao asked strangely: "Didn't you want to find me?"

He raised his eyebrows slightly, and he really looked stunned, it didn't seem like he was joking at all.Chen Nian looked at him silently for a while, and asked: "Can you see that the guards outside my courtyard are much stricter? Do you know why?"

Lu Xiao was deliberately pretending to be confused with Chen Nian, and replied after hearing the words: "It's a lot more, isn't it because of being assassinated the night before yesterday?"

With his reaction like this, Chen Nian was a little confused for a while, he couldn't figure out whether he was really stupid or just pretending to be stupid, or if there was something unspeakable and he had to be like this.She bit her lips and remained silent for a moment, finally became cruel, gritted her teeth and said in a low voice: "Lu Xiao, I'm not afraid to tell you, listen, I broke up with Feng Junyang, the many hidden guards outside are not to guard against assassins, but It is to prevent me from escaping. I want to find you, and I also intend to talk to you about it. Since you were hired by my adoptive father to protect me, you have to find a way to help me escape."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Xiao frowned and asked Chen Nian, "Are you quarreling with Feng Junyang again?"

"It's not a quarrel, it's a breakup." Chen Nian paused, suppressed the shame in his heart, and explained, "Feng Junyang lied to me, he wants to marry someone else."

Lu Xiao frowned even tighter, but said: "He already told me that someone deliberately separated you. Xie Chennian, I really don't understand you. You are willing to risk your life for him, why are you still unwilling to trust him?" Woolen cloth?"

Chen Nian froze all of a sudden, and immediately understood why Lu Xiao reacted in such a way today, presumably Feng Junyang had met him in advance, and even told him the matter in reverse.Seeing Lu Xiao's reaction like this, Chen Nian was both wronged and angry. She stared at Lu Xiao without blinking, and asked him slowly: "Lu Xiao, I just ask you, do you believe me or Feng Junyang?" ?”

This question obviously made Lu Xiao very embarrassed. He murmured for a long time before answering: "I believe you."

Chennian heard his insincere words, couldn't help but sneered twice, and said: "Lu Xiao, I don't care about your trust, you go back and tell Feng Junyang, even if you don't have Lu Xiao's help, I will thank Chennian." I can escape! You go, you go!" As she spoke, she actually got up and chased Lu Xiao out.

Lu Xiao's face darkened after hearing this, and he said angrily, "Xie Chennian, what are you doing?"

While speaking, Chen Nian had already pushed him outside the door, and angrily shouted at Shun Ping who rushed over: "Shun Ping, take this man away, go back and report to your master!"

Lu Xiao snorted coldly, turned around and left in a fit of anger, and when he went out of the courtyard and saw Feng Junyang was still waiting there, he couldn't help saying angrily: "This kind of girl is just you taking her as a treasure, if I say it's all You're used to it! My lover doesn't believe it, but he believes in those nonsense, and even draws a knife to hurt you. If you don't get angry, forget it, and coax her like this. Hmph, if this is in our Mobei, it should have been tied up long ago. Give her a good whip!"

Feng Junyang couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it, so he had to persuade him: "Brother Lu, calm down, Chen Nian is still young, so don't argue with her."

Hearing this, Lu Xiao gave Feng Junyang an angry look and shouted, "Forget it, I don't care about the affairs between the two of you, anyway, her adoptive father only asked me to protect her life, and didn't ask me to give it to her. Pick a husband and son-in-law!"

After speaking, Lu Xiao strode away.

Feng Junyang looked at his angry back and couldn't help but laugh.

Shunping also came out of the garden at this time, and went up to report to him in a low voice: "Miss Xie seems to be very angry with Lu Xiao, and the younger one also received a few words of scolding, she seems to see that she is the son of the world What did you say to Lu Xiao, and you only asked the little one to come back to you, and then closed the door and no one was allowed to enter."

Feng Junyang nodded lightly: "I know."

Shunping hesitated for a moment, then asked again: "Master, do you want to go in and have a look at Miss Xie?"

But Feng Junyang smiled slightly, shook his head and said: "No, she is angry, and I will only make her angrier if I go in. It's better to wait for her to calm down first."

This is simple to say, but Chen Nian can really calm down.The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Lu Xiao was an impenetrable stick. Fortunately, she was worried that if she escaped alone, Feng Junyang would turn his anger on Lu Xiao. Now it seems that she really doesn't have to worry about it!
At the beginning of the Chen Dynasty, she only felt angry, but later regretted it. In order to weaken Feng Junyang's vigilance, she deliberately pretended to be very worried about him for Shunping to see. Today, when the fire came out, the previous scenes were all for nothing. .Annoyed like this, Chen Nian couldn't fall asleep until late at night. Seeing that it was past four o'clock, she was thinking of sneaking to see if the maid outside the door was slack, when she just approached the door, she suddenly saw a thin The blade poked in through the crack of the door.

Chen Nian was taken aback, and quietly took two steps to the side, dodging behind the door.I saw the blade slashing down the crack of the door, landed lightly on the latch, and pulled it open in two or three strokes.The door was slowly pushed open, and a tall figure came in from the outside, then turned around and closed the door silently.

Xu Shi couldn't adapt to the darkness in the room for a while, so the man stood by the door before quietly walking into the room.After such a short time, Chen Nian had already recognized who was coming, hurriedly followed, and called out in a low voice: "Lu Xiao!"

The figure paused and turned around to look over.Just as Chen Nian was about to ask a question, Lu Xiao put his index finger on his lips, shook his head slightly at her to signal to keep quiet, then dragged her a few steps into the room, and finally lowered his voice when he reached the bedside Said: "I lay on your roof for half the night, and finally waited until the maid outside dozed off before I could come down. Let's be careful what we say, so as not to wake her up."

Chen Nian was surprised and delighted when he heard the words, and hurriedly asked: "Why are you here again? Do you believe my words?"

"I don't believe you, do you still want to believe others?" Lu Xiao asked with a little disdain in his tone, "Xie Chennian, do you just think I'm dumb and stupid?"

How could Chen Nian dare to tell the truth at this moment, he hurriedly said: "No, I didn't."

Lu Xiao sneered, and said: "I told you Xie Chennian, I wasn't by your side before, because the yard is very guarded, and there are masters like Mr. Qiao and Zheng Lun around, so your safety is not guaranteed The problem. The second is that your lover is really small-minded, if I really guard you every day, he doesn't know what to do."

Everything he said was correct, and Chen Nian really had nothing to refute.

Lu Xiao continued: "The night before, you called for an assassin, but I didn't find you when I came out. I only saw Shunping. He said it was a false alarm, so I felt something was wrong. Later, I saw that Mr. Qiao sent you back. .your beau said--"

"Feng Junyang." Chen Nian interrupted him suddenly, and corrected him seriously, "He is not my lover anymore, he is the son of Prince Yunxi, named Feng Junyang."

Lu Xiao looked at her twice, then changed his words, and continued: "Feng Junyang said that you were provoked by others and misunderstood him. He was afraid that you would run away willfully, so people stopped him. I don't think his words can be trusted. .”

Chen Nian was really surprised to hear this, and couldn't help asking: "How did you find out?"

Lu Xiao replied: "With your skill, if it's just to keep an eye on you, there's really no need to ask Qiao Lao and Zheng Lun to take turns guarding outside. They're here, not you, but me."

Chen Nian never expected that Lu Xiao would have such a meticulous mind, and he was not frustrated when he was surprised.She always thought she was smart, and she was stunned at Lu Xiao, but she didn't think that she was the stupidest one. Others are just pretending to be stupid, but she is the only one who is really stupid and pretends to be smart.

Seeing that she was silent for a while, Lu Xiao didn't know what she was thinking, so he asked again: "What's the matter with you and Feng Junyang?"

There was a self-deprecating chuckle on Chen Nian's lips, and he simply stopped hiding from Lu Xiao, and told him the truth: "He already has a fiancee, that is the cousin of the He family. He didn't think about marrying me, he just wanted me to stay by his side and be a..." Chen Nian gritted his teeth, still unable to say the word "plaything".

"So you stabbed him twice?" Lu Xiao asked.

Chen Nian looked at him and asked, "Why, shouldn't it be?"

Lu Xiao frowned, but said, "Since he's sorry for you, why didn't you just cut him off?"

Chen Nian was taken aback, she hated Feng Junyang for coaxing her like that, but even though she hated him like that at that time, she never thought of killing Feng Junyang.She lowered her head and said softly after a moment of silence: "I can't do it."

Lu Xiao didn't bother with this question, but asked in a deep voice, "Then what are you going to do?"

Chen Nian hardened his heart, gritted his teeth and replied: "He lied to me once, and I stabbed him twice, which is considered as not owed to each other. From then on, he will be his eldest son, marry his famous lady, and I will go Follow my rivers and lakes, marry my man!"

Although Lu Xiao felt that Chen Nian was not as daring to love and hate as the girls from the Xian family, he also admitted that she was a straightforward and straightforward woman he had seen, and said, "Okay, let's go then. I'll watch you If I stay here any longer, I won't be the Xie Chennian who can fight the enemy side by side and talk about life and death with me."

Chen Nian nodded, and after pondering for a moment, he asked Lu Xiao, "Did you come in smoothly just now? If you take me with you, maybe you can escape from Xiyuan together?"

Lu Xiao shook his head and said, "No, it's very difficult for me to come in by myself, and I can't bring you along."

Chen Nian felt a little disappointed in his heart, but then pulled himself together, thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "It's okay, we two will go separately, you go first. You will be watched if you stay here, it's better to go out first Turning from light to darkness will help me better."

Lu Xiao also thought so. Hearing the words, he nodded and said, "Then I'll go first, and you stay honest for a few days. When they relax their defenses, I'll come back and rescue you."

"No, it's more convenient for me to escape by myself." Chen Nian thought for a while, and then said, "You have to have an excuse to leave suddenly, and you should think about this excuse carefully, so as not to arouse Feng Junyang's suspicion .”

But Lu Xiao said: "I have my own excuses to leave, but you have to figure out where you are going when you get out of Qingzhou, and I will make a lot of preparations."

Chen Nian was taken aback by what he said, and his heart suddenly felt inexplicably sad, even if she could escape from Xiyuan and leave Qingzhou smoothly, where could she go after leaving Qingzhou?Qingfeng Village has been ruined, Ye Xiaoqi and the others' whereabouts are unknown, and the adoptive father does not know where he is, where else can she go?She was silent for a while, and then asked Lu Xiao again: "Where is my adoptive father? Can't you tell me now?"

Lu Xiao replied, "No, I can't tell you where he is."

Chen Nian smiled wryly: "Your mouth is really tight."

Seeing her like this, Lu Xiao couldn't bear it, and wanted to comfort her with words, but he didn't know what to say.Chen Nian saw his thoughts and waved his hands: "Forget it, let's not talk about this for now, let's talk about it after we escape from Qingzhou." She looked up at Lu Xiao, and asked, "What excuse do you have? Let you leave without causing Feng Jun to raise suspicion?"

This matter seemed simple, but it was extremely difficult. Feng Junyang knew that Lu Xiao came to protect her, and she was still in the mansion right now. If Lu Xiao left easily, he would definitely be suspicious.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xiao refused to say anything, and only said: "You don't need to worry about this, I have my own way."

Chen Nian stopped asking, and after pondering for a moment, he said: "Okay, I believe you. But don't rush away, wait two days before you say goodbye to Feng Junyang. He took good care of me while you were gone."

Lu Xiao nodded in agreement, and the two discussed how to escape in the future. When it came to the arrangements after leaving Qingzhou, Chen Nian murmured: "We can't go to the Taihang Mountains when we leave Qingzhou, go east. I'm afraid it won't work in the south, these places are all under Feng Junyang's sphere of influence. If we want to avoid his pursuit, we might as well go north first!"

After hearing this, Lu Xiao frowned deeply, "Do you want to go to Mobei?"

Chen Nian shook his head: "No, it's not really going to Mobei, but Feng Junyang misunderstood that we were going to Mobei. After we crossed Yanci Mountain, we sneaked back, passed through Xuanzhou, and came back from Jizhou , enter Taihang from the east!"

Hearing that Chen Nian was not really going to Mobei, Lu Xiao's brows were flattened, and he replied, "Okay, I can do whatever I want."

Seeing that the sky was about to dawn, Chen Nian was about to urge Lu Xiao to leave quickly, but Lu Xiao suddenly lifted the bed curtain, pulled her onto the bed, and whispered in her ear: "Shh, someone is coming outside!" !"

Chen Nian listened with bated breath when he heard the words, and he heard footsteps approaching from far in the courtyard, and he didn't stop until he reached the corridor, and then he heard the maid guarding outside the house calling in a low voice: "Master Ping."

Junpei responded in a low voice, and asked, "How is the situation at night?"

The maid replied: "Miss Xie has been sleeping very deeply, and there is no movement."

Shunping said again: "Take care, be alert!"

Then the maid promised in a low voice, and said respectfully: "Master Ping, don't worry, this servant has been guarding here all the time, and I dare not even close my eyes."

The two of them had questions and answers outside, but Lu Xiao, who was hiding on the bed with Chennian, couldn't help laughing out loud. Chennian was so frightened that he quickly covered his mouth with his hands, and whispered in his ear: "Do not laugh!"

Lu Xiao nodded, pushed Chen Nian's hand away, turned his head to her ear, and said in a very low voice, "This woman is lying. When I came down earlier, she was sleeping soundly leaning against the porch pillar. Well, you dare to say that you dare not close your eyes, and you say that you are a deep sleeper, I think it is she who is a deep sleeper!"

After hearing what he said, Chen Nian couldn't help laughing, she pursed her lips and smiled silently, turned Lu Xiao's head back, pressed herself against his ear and said, "I can only say this, otherwise how can I reply? Speaking of Lord Ping, I'm really sorry, I accidentally fell asleep just now, I don't know what's going on in the room, why don't you ask yourself?"

Lu Xiao couldn't help being happy again, so scared that Chen Nian hurriedly covered his mouth again.

Shunping in the corridor whispered a few more words with the maid, and then left, only the maid was left on the window paper.Chen Nian waited for a while, and seeing the maid standing there, he whispered to Lu Xiao, "It's broken, if she really can't close her eyes, how can you get out?"

Lu Xiao said: "If you call her in, I'll knock her out."

"Knock her out? What if she wakes up tomorrow?" Chen Nian asked.

Lu Xiao was quite distressed, thought for a while, and replied: "You said if I were more agile and prevented her from seeing me, would she believe that she fainted suddenly?"

Chen Nian was speechless, lying flat on the bed and looking up at the roof of the tent silently for a long while, then said in a low voice: "Wait a minute, if she stays up all the time, then tomorrow morning I will ask her to practice boxing and lead her away. Let’s run away secretly again, but you have to be careful of the hidden guards outside when you go out.”

Lu Xiao couldn't think of any other way at the moment, no matter whether he knocked the maid unconscious or killed her, he would definitely reveal his secrets tomorrow morning, it would be better to wait for Chen Nian to lure the maid away, and then he would sneak away.Thinking of the tight guards outside the house, he said again: "Then you have to get up early to practice boxing tomorrow. If it is bright, it will be difficult to hide your body."

Chen Nian nodded and said, "Okay."

Lu Xiao felt relieved when he heard the words, and said in a low voice: "Then I'll squint for a while, and call me when you get up. I really didn't sleep a night."

After he said this, he actually moved his body into the bed, lay there and fell asleep, and after a while, he heard his breath become thin and long, and he was really asleep.Chen Nian raised his body and looked at him, feeling dumbfounded, he had no choice but to lie down quietly, recuperate his inner breath, and waited for the dawn with his eyes open.

The summer is long, but just after the fourth watch, there is a faint light in the eastern sky. Chen Nian pushed Lu Xiao awake beside him, and said in a low voice: "I'm going out to find her to practice boxing. You find her first." Hide in a place, wait for me to lead her to a little distance, and then try to slip away."

Although Lu Xiao just opened his eyes, his mind was very clear. He nodded slightly and replied, "Okay."

Chen Nian took a deep breath, jumped up from the bed, got off the bed and walked back and forth to the door.As soon as the door opened, the maid came forward immediately and asked respectfully, "Girl, are you up?"

Chen Nian nodded with a sullen face, stepped out of the door and strode towards the courtyard, said in his mouth: "I'll ask others to go in and clean it later, come here and practice boxing with me first."

The maid didn't dare to disobey Chen Nian's order, so she had no choice but to follow Chen Nian to practice boxing with him.Chen Nian took her to practice boxing and kicking for a full hour, fighting from the porch to the gate of the courtyard, and he didn't let her go to rest until it was broad daylight.The maid who was on duty during the day had already arrived, she had just finished cleaning the room, and she was waiting in the corridor with her hands down, Chen Nian saw that there was no abnormal expression on her face, so he guessed that Lu Xiao should have already left, so he settled down and let them serve him freshen up.

On the morning of the third day, Lu Xiao bid farewell to Feng Junyang, saying that he had something to do and had to leave for a while, and asked Feng Junyang to take care of Chen Nian first.Feng Junyang was a little surprised after hearing this, raised his eyebrows to look at Lu Xiao, and asked, "Brother Lu is leaving?"

"I have some things to deal with, and I have to leave for more than a month." After finishing speaking, Lu Xiao asked Feng Junyang, "How long can you stay in Qingzhou? I heard Xie Chennian said that you still have to go to Shengdu."

Feng Junyang pondered for a moment, and replied: "This matter has not yet been decided, but I will always take Chen Nian by my side. Brother Lu, you don't have to worry about her safety."

Lu Xiao said: "Well, I will go to work first, and I will come to Qingzhou to look for you later, if you leave, please leave me a message, and I will go after you again."

Feng Junyang smiled and said, "Okay."

Lu Xiao wanted to bid farewell to Chen Nian again, but Feng Junyang couldn't stop him, so he had to ask Shun Ping to send him to Chen Nian's place, but when he got there, Chen Nian didn't see Lu Xiao, and refused to even open the door Just call Lu Xiao out loud in the house.Lu Xiao's face was extremely ugly, Shunping glanced at him carefully, and asked tentatively: "Lu Zhuangshi, look..."

Lu Xiao didn't answer, just walked away, and rode out of Xiyuan that afternoon.Shunping sent people to follow him secretly, and it turned out that he came out of Qingzhou City from the North City Gate. After leaving the city, he went straight north, crossed the Ziya River, and headed towards Yanci Mountain.Shunping got the reward and hurriedly reported the news to Feng Junyang. Feng Junyang pondered silently for a moment, looked up at Shunping, and asked, "Did you take the ancient Beimo road?"

There is an ancient mountain road in Yanci Mountain that can lead to Xuanzhou outside the pass. Zhou Zhiren, a famous general in the North Desert, passed through Yanci Mountain along that mountain road, bypassed Jingyang Pass, attacked the city all the way, and directly hit Jiangbei No. A big city - Taixing outside the city.

"Yes." Shunping replied, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Master, this matter is a bit strange. A letter came from the north a few days ago saying that the khan of the Xian clan in Mobei died. In order to establish a new khan, the fresh Several major clans are fighting happily, and Lu Xiao suddenly went north, could it be related to this matter?"

Feng Junyang nodded slowly, and said lightly: "It should be related."

Since Lu Xiao will return to the north due to the power struggle of the Xian clan, he is obviously not an ordinary Xian clan member, and Mu Zhanyue, who can invite him to protect Chen Nian, should not be just a killer in Qingfeng Village .Feng Junyang suddenly became interested in Mu Zhanyue's identity. After thinking about it for a moment, he ordered Shunping to say, "Try to find a few old people from Qingfengzhai, and ask Mu Zhanyue how he came to Qingfengzhai, and whether he came? Just hold the baby."

Shunping wanted to go, but Feng Junyang called him again, thought for a while, and then ordered: "Get ready, and go to Shengdu in a few days."

Shunping didn't want him to leave so early, he didn't realize he was a little surprised, and then saw Feng Junyang frowned slightly, thinking that he was bothering Chen Nian's affairs, after thinking about it, he said: "Look at me, thank you, little one." The girl has been very quiet these two days, maybe she's overwhelmed, so why don't you go and have a look at her?"

Feng Junyang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but he sneered slightly, and said: "If she is willing to quarrel with me a few times, she may be able to get over her temper, the more quiet she is now, I'm afraid that the more you think about running away, you should ask someone to watch it carefully."

Shunping responded, and seeing that he had no other orders, he retreated silently.
