Chapter 506 Assassination Result (1) ([-])
Zhou Xu was not tired at this time.

But after hearing Zhou Xu's words, she still stepped forward and held Zhu Xi's hand.

Zhu Xi couldn't tell whether he was tired or not. They didn't walk too far. After Zhu Xi held Zhou Xu's hand, he looked back at her: "It should have been like this a long time ago." He didn't expect it before.

Zhou Xu was speechless.

Zhu Xi pulled Zhou Xu back, and moved forward carefully side by side with Zhu Xi.

Zhu Xi's hands were very hot, as if she was sweating a little. They surrounded Zhou Xu's hands hotly, and his body was also hot. Zhou Xu walking beside him was completely different from walking behind him. The feeling of supporting each other, the feeling of sharing weal and woe, Zhu Xi didn't want to take her away until this time, he really didn't know what he was thinking before.

Just as Zhou Xu and Zhu Xi walked out of the woods and were about to reach the small river, the footsteps of many people in front of them sounded.

Zhou Xu was nervous.

Zhu Xi held Zhou Xu's hand tightly.

"You wait for me here. If I don't ask you to come out, don't come out."

Zhu Xi said suddenly, let go of Zhou Xu's hand, and walked outside.

"My lord," Zhou Xu said.

Zhu Xi didn't stop, Zhou Xu held it with both hands and stared straight at Zhu Xi's back.

Zhu Xi didn't walk out of the woods, he stood by the edge of the woods, looked outside, and then blew a whistle.

Soon, whistles sounded outside.

Zhu Xi looked back at Zhou Xu.

Zhou Xu heard it from a distance, and she immediately understood that Zhu Xi was echoing someone outside.

The people outside are Zhu Xi's people.

Zhu Xi glanced at Zhou Xu and walked out of the woods.

Zhou Xu was left alone in the woods.

From a distance, she heard the voices of the prince, prince, His Royal Highness Ning, kneeling and asking for peace, pleading guilty, etc. Zhou Xu turned back to look in the direction of the cave, should we go now, Zhou Xu Thinking in her heart, immediately, she saw Zhu Xi leading someone in from the edge of the woods.

She was still reluctant to leave Zhu Xi immediately.

She was poisoned, and like Zhou Xu in the past, she was planted with a poison called Zhu Xi, but Zhu Xi's injury was not poisoned, and she was also poisoned in her previous life.

Her determination didn't work, it was mainly a dilemma, and now she was in a dilemma.

"princess."

Zhu Xi walked towards Zhou Xu step by step, standing not far away, he spoke.

"My lord." Zhou Xu restrained himself and stepped forward.

"Good luck to the princess." "Greetings to the princess!" "Greetings to the princess."

Zhou Xu walked up to Zhu Xi, held Zhu Xi's outstretched hands, stood beside him, and extended a light hand to the person who knelt down to pay his respects and apologize.

"Let's go, get out of here first."

Zhu Xi said, holding Zhou Xu's hand tightly.

Zhou Xu listened to the words in his ear, glanced at the kneeling people, and agreed to Zhu Xi, who was surrounded by Zhu Xi.

There are only a few familiar faces among these people, from last night, and all of them are strangers.

Zhou Xu wanted to ask about the situation after last night, Wang's and Gao's, and other things, but now is not the time, so I will ask later, where is Xinggong Jingli?

Zhu Xi and Zhou Xu came out of the woods.

"We have to change the road, we can't go back to the capital directly." Out of the woods, Zhou Xu heard Zhu Xi say to her.

Zhou Xu turned his head.

Zhu Xi looked ahead: "I don't know what I will encounter on the road. I didn't expect that someone would dare to assassinate me. I don't know who these people are. Some of them are not from our country. Jingli should get news soon. There was also a notice from the palace, but we are afraid that it will be too late, we have few people, we can't go back to Beijing directly, we will take a detour first."

"Then, let's go—" Zhou Xu suddenly heard Zhu Xi say this. She didn't feel unexpected. She had expected it. will pass there.

She said a place name.

And that place name is where the active volcano is.

"Let's make a detour first, and watch as we go." Zhu Xi didn't know why Zhou Xu mentioned it: "You?"

"I just thought of it suddenly," Zhou Xu replied.

Zhu Xi frowned in thought, and after a while, stared at Zhou Xu: "Let me see."

Zhou Xu suppressed the excitement in his heart and nodded slightly.

The two took people on the road.

There was no carriage, so Zhou Xu and Zhu Xi rode a horse together, and the others guarded them in front of and behind them.

They walked around the road without meeting anyone.

When it was time to eat, the guards hunted and lit the fire to cook. Zhou Xu and Zhu Xi would drink the water they brought with them when they were thirsty, and refill it when they were done drinking.

Zhou Xu didn't use the leaves to fill the water anymore. The guards carried water bottles for marching. The wild fruit was used when the mouth was dry and hungry on the road. Zhou Xu shared some with the guards, and she and Zhu Xi used the rest.

After resting and eating and drinking, they went on the road again, and the guards were very capable.

They were all arranged by Zhu Xi.

But not many, because Zhu Xi didn't bring much when he left Beijing, and the fourth prince Zhou Xu didn't bring much when he came, and there were few people in the palace, and he didn't know how many assassins there were.

This is what Zhou Xu heard from Zhu Xi on the road. Why didn't Zhu Xi go back to the palace directly, because the road is not close, and there are not many people left in the palace. The fourth prince doesn't know what will happen there, so he sent out to dispatch troops People still need time, not to mention Beijing, and they can't stay in place and wait, they can only wait while walking.

You can go back to Beijing directly when the troops arrive.

On this day, Zhu Xi and Zhou Xu and his party found a place with a stream of water to rest when it was getting dark. Because they didn’t take the official road, they walked all the way around, so they couldn’t get to the post station to rest, and they couldn’t. Resting in the field, I found a similar place, sent people out, and asked other people to watch around, and the rest lit a fire to cook, looked for water and firewood, Zhou Xu and Zhu Xi got off the horse.

Along the way, although I stopped to rest when it was time to eat, and then walked again, I didn't dare to rest for too long at the end of the day, so I was tired.

Zhu Xi's face was covered with dust, as were the other guards, especially Zhou Xu.

After riding a horse for a whole day, Zhou Xu felt that if it wasn't for the different body, he would definitely fall apart, and the pain between his legs also caused a lot of mental and physical exhaustion, which was only better than the first night.

After getting off the horse, Zhu Xi ordered Zhou Xu to go to the side of the stream and clean it with water to wake up.

The space is unusable in front of so many people.

Facing the water, Zhou Xu couldn't see what she looked like now because it was getting dark, so she put aside the veiled gauze hat she was wearing on her head, which she had worn earlier in the morning, but left it in the carriage , Those guards came back, just used it along the way, first she was worried that if she showed her face in public, last night was last night, today is different, she sighed, and slowly cleaned up, after a while, the whole person was much more energetic Now, she got up, Zhu Xi had also finished giving orders, and was also cleaning up next to her, Zhou Xu didn't speak, and swept around the guards, she looked away, and stood quietly aside.
