away from the heart

Chapter 30
When the lights came on, Taoyao slipped in, Chuyue grabbed her, saw that she was still bearded, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Is it going well? I'm afraid you will be caught by Bai Liqi."

Tao Yao proudly puffed up her chest: "When I came back, I was interrogated a few times, but the servant and the princess have long been used to such sneaky things, so they easily evaded it."

"What did the stars say?"

"Prince Shun was a little disappointed to see that I was the one to go. But he said, he will personally arrange for the letter to be delivered to the emperor's desk tomorrow, so you can wait patiently. By the way, Prince Shun also gave me a firework, saying Just in case you encounter any danger, release it, and he will see it immediately. Hey, why does the princess smell like medicine?"

Chuyue frowned: "I've washed it several times, but the smell of his bath water can't be removed, it's really annoying!"

Taoyao heard what Chuyue said just now, and said suspiciously: "Princess, you are lonely, nothing happened? I heard that the general has been in the barracks for many years, and he hangs out with a group of stinky men every day. I've never seen any women."

Chuyue snorted: "Then what's the matter, I live in the harem, and I haven't seen any men before."

"Then..." Tao Yao chuckled, "Princess and the general, isn't it just the dry wood meeting the raging fire?"

Chuyue was so angry that she gave Taoyao a shudder: "What nonsense! If it wasn't for protecting you, would I have made such a bad move?"

The two were laughing and joking, Chuyue suddenly heard the copper bell on her ankle ringing non-stop, and her face fell down: "This thing is hanging on the foot, and people can hear it wherever you go. It's really annoying." She stretched out her hand Pull it, but the copper bell doesn't move.

Tao Yao hurriedly stopped her: "Princess, be careful not to get hurt! This brass bell is very strong, we can't get it off without the key."

Chuyue was not reconciled: "No, I still have to try. I remember if there is a hoe in the woodshed at the back? Let's go and see."

The two walked in the garden, Tao Yao shivered and wrapped her clothes tightly: "Princess, don't you think it's very cold in this garden?"

Chuyue was also very nervous: "Maybe it's because it's buried under the ground..." Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Tao Yao: "Princess, am I delusional? It's late at night, why is there a figure over there? He seems to have... a Cuju in his hand?"

Chuyue trembled when she heard her own voice: "I don't look like a Cuju, but more like a human head...Could it be a fraud, a corpse..."

The shadow suddenly moved.The two hugged each other in fright, Chuyue's knees softened, and she slumped on the ground. She hurriedly closed her eyes and begged God to worship Buddha: "Heaven and Earth Tathagata Guanyin Bodhisattva, protect and protect me. You are already dead, ashes return to ashes, Just go with peace of mind."

Xue Yao was impatient: "What are you talking about, have you been bewitched by not sleeping at night?"

Chuyue didn't listen to him at all, and still begged in a crying voice: "Please forgive me, I didn't see anything, I don't want to go to accompany you so early."

Xue Yao had no choice but to grab her hand: "Xu Chuyue!"

Chuyue was stunned, and opened her eyes: "Xue Yao?"

Xue Yao pulled her up and dragged her a few steps: "Did you see clearly?"

Chuyue took a closer look and saw several flower pots on the ground: "Are these...the flowers sent by Su Nannan during the day?"

Xue Yao squinted at her: "Otherwise what do you think?"

Chuyue let out a long sigh of relief: "You are really duplicity, I thought you disliked my daughter, but you were secretly transplanting flowers given by others in the middle of the night."

"A person is a person, a flower is a flower. Forget it, you don't understand. What are you doing out in the middle of the night without sleeping?"

"How do you know I'm not asleep? Could it be that you're pretending to be planting flowers, but you're actually peeping at me?"
