away from the heart

Chapter 19
Nie Yuan!This Xue Yao really didn't understand the amorous feelings, and actually provoked the good junior sister to leave sadly.Chuyue sighed sadly, beat her chest and stomped her feet, and accidentally glanced at a vase on the table.She watched helplessly as the vase fell and hit the ground with a bang, which shattered together with her heart.

How could this movement escape the ears of General Xue.Xue Yao broke through the door, and was swept in front of her like a gust of wind, his face livid.Chuyue paralyzed by the window, greeted tremblingly: "Hi, my husband."

"You still have the guts to come back? Tell me honestly, where did you go, who picked you up, and when did you secretly discuss the plan?"

Chuyue was dazed by this series of questions, wiped off her sweat and said, "Husband is just joking, I happened to meet Miss Su outside after I fell off the wall and chatted for a while, so I hurried back right away. That... Xue Mansion is my home, and I worry about it wherever I go!"

"A series of nonsense!"

Chuyue complained: "everything I said is true, and I dare not lie in the slightest."

It was obvious that he was self-defeating and was dragged back by his junior sister, who dared to bully him half-truthfully.Xue Yao really felt angry this time: "Do you know how many people in the whole house are looking for you today?! It seems that I am still too kind to you."

He suddenly lifted Chuyue's skirt and grabbed her ankle.Chuyue turned pale with shock: "What are you doing?! Let go of me, I'm calling for someone! Help, help..." Before he finished speaking, his mouth was firmly covered by his other hand.Xue Yao asked her coldly: "Are you still yelling?"

Chuyue shook her head again and again.Xue Yao asked again: "Are you still running around?"

Chuyue still shook her head.Xue Yao removed the mouth covering her hand, and quietly said: "It's late." He looked Chuyue up and down from head to toe, "I don't trust your upper body, nor your lower body."

Chuyue only heard a slight "click", and there was a string of copper bells on her ankles.She moved, and the bell jingled, and the sound was very crisp.She hurriedly stretched out her hand to pull it, but only hurt her ankle, the copper bell was still hanging there motionless, and the jingle bells rang cheerfully.Chuyue anxious eyes: "What is this, do you think I'm a dog?"

"This is the foot bell that Xi Zhaoguo wears for prisoners. The sound can travel far and wide, and I can hear it wherever you go. I won't untie it for you until you explain it clearly."

Chuyue still wanted to protest, but Bai Liqi walked in: "General, there is a letter."

It was already dark.After Xue Yao finished reading the letter, he didn't say a word for a long time.Bai Liqi asked: "General, what news does Commander Luo have in the letter?"

"Luo Ji said that he had checked everywhere, and the elder brother and the princess did not have any intersection. The assassin that night, he suspected that he was instigated by the princess's enemy. Maybe it was just a coincidence that he knew the elder brother."

Bai Liqi thought about it and said: "I heard that Concubine Su and the Princess have been at odds for many years, and the people in the palace are most likely to act according to wind and wind. There are probably many people who want to harm the Princess to please the Concubine and Empress. Maybe... the Princess was killed innocently?"

"It looks like she didn't know it now. It's just...why didn't she mention the fact that she was rescued by me that day?" Xue Yao shook her head, "She always says half of what she says, and I don't feel at ease if I don't find out why. .”

"Then how can the princess tell the truth?"

"I have a way. But there is one more important thing right now..." Xue Yao took out something from his sleeve, but it was a cut off flower branch.He stared at the fracture cut off by the sword, feeling very distressed, "A lot of arms and legs were cut off by my junior sister during the day, if I don't connect these broken legs quickly, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive."

"The general still cares so much about these flowers and trees."

Xue Yao said indifferently: "After all, people's hearts are changeable, but flowers and trees are not. As long as you water carefully, there will always be rewards."
