Chapter 204

In the endless darkness, Chu Qinghe kept running and couldn't find an exit. She curled up in fear, with no one around her, and the darkness gradually engulfed her thin body.

Where the hell is this?She hugged her knees tightly, trembling and afraid to look around.

The wind in her ears was getting louder, and she felt the weightlessness of falling.

Her heart tightened, and then she returned to calm. Chu Qinghe woke up from the dream. After returning from Chongshan, she had nightmares every day. There was nothing in the dream, only her alone and the night that could not be dispelled.

The East Palace was brightly lit, and the main hall where she slept was as bright as day.

The table beside the bed was covered with dense candlesticks, and the candles were almost burning to the end at this moment.

"Princess," the maid exclaimed in surprise as she counted the time to exchange candles.

"Are you having nightmares again?"

Chu Qinghe leaned weakly on the bedside and said, "Pour me a glass of water."

The maid named Zimo was originally Chu Qinghong's maid, but now that she has no one around, Zimo took the initiative to serve her.

She wiped the tears from her eyes and did the same thing every day and night, with no one around her.

This is indeed the case.

Shadow Six is ​​gone.

That dark rainy night, that night of running away, was the last night she wanted to recall with her two brothers.

Everyone died, only she, safe and sound, took Chu Qinghong back to the East Palace.

...

Time went back to the day she didn't want to think about.

She slept in the carriage, and Ying Liu stood guard outside.

midnight.

Ying Liu heard the voice of the pursuers, and he decisively shouted to Chu Qinghe, "Princess, princess, wake up."

Chu Qinghe was already very tired after fleeing in the rainy night, and fell into a deep sleep. She asked in a daze, "What's wrong?"

"The pursuers are coming, let's go."

She woke up suddenly, her eyes widened, she couldn't believe how the pursuers came so fast, "How far are we from now?"

Ying Liu pursed his lips and said seriously, "It's very close, we have to get on the road quickly."

Ying Liu resolutely abandoned the carriage, cut off the noose that drove the horse, jumped on the horse neatly, and then stretched out his hand to Chu Qinghe, "Princess, come."

Chu Qinghe was not hypocritical, and with the help of Yingliu's hand, he got on the horse with a kick.

She was tightly guarded by Ying Liu, the horse galloped on the path, surrounded by the sound of the howling wind, her face was sore from the cold wind in the middle of the night.

She shuddered and didn't feel sleepy at all, "Can we go back?"

Last night's escape made her physically and mentally exhausted. In the end, only the two of them escaped from such a big group. Chu Qinghe was not sure whether the god of luck would favor them tonight.

Ying Liu abandoned the official road and chose some winding paths, and said calmly, "Yes, we can go back, we are still an hour away from the capital."

The pursuers behind her stepped forward, and she felt the voice behind her getting louder, and the pursuers were getting closer, "Hurry up, there are people ahead."

"Hurry up."

"Drive - drive - chase quickly."

"quick--"

Chu Qinghe felt the sound of horseshoes behind him approaching them like a talisman.

"Princess, there are still ten miles left." They had already reached the outskirts of Beijing, and they were only a little short.

It only takes a moment for them to escape.

Seeing Chu Qinghe approaching the city gate, the pursuers behind were a little anxious, as if they didn't want to keep alive, so the leader ordered them to release arrows.

Ying Liu couldn't care about the situation behind him at all, he slapped his horse hard a few times, just hurry up, it will be there soon, soon.

He vaguely saw the gate of the city ahead.

The first arrow galloped past Chu Qinghe's hair, and her heart skipped a beat, "The people behind started to shoot arrows, what should I do?"

The overwhelming rain of arrows left them nowhere to hide.

Heaven was going to kill her, but the monk could escape but could not escape from the temple. I never thought her fate would be like this.

Seeing that the door to her home was right in front of her, she had no strength to fight anymore and said a little decadently, "Are we going to die?"

"It's okay, princess, we'll go home right away," Ying Liu comforted calmly, he would definitely protect the princess to go home safely, then he adjusted his posture and held Chu Qinghe in his arms in an absolutely protective posture.

Chu Qinghe kept praying in her heart, hurry up, hurry up, she has already seen the gate of the city, as long as she goes in, she will be safe.

Hurry, hurry up.

Her heart was pounding.

There was still a short distance from the gate of the city, and Ying Liu suddenly released a flare and fireworks, and shouted loudly, "Princess Ronghua returns to Beijing, quickly open the gate of the city."

"Princess Ronghua returns to Beijing, quickly open the city gate—"

The soldiers on guard at the city gate noticed the pursuers behind them, together with the signal flare, realized the seriousness of the matter, and immediately reported to arrange someone to meet the two of them.

The arrows pierced the sky, making a slight roar. A hole seemed to be cut in the sky, and a white light appeared in the black curtain on the horizon.

Its daybreak.

Chu Qinghe was only ten meters away from the gate of the city, and an opening had been opened to allow them to pass through.

It only takes a few seconds and they are safe.

Especially at this time, Chu Qinghe's heart hangs high and cannot be let down.

They are racing against time.

But it was too late.

Several arrows roared towards him, and there was no room for anyone to hide.

She heard the sound of arrows and the rustling of flesh and blood.

What else do you hear?

She also heard Ying Liu say something in her ear, that she lived up to the trust.

The city gate behind him quickly closed.

The horse raised its front hooves high, let out a mournful whine, and then fell heavily to the ground.

Ying Liu protects Chu Qinghe from falling off the horse.

Chu Qinghe felt a heavy thing on her shoulder leaning up, and Ying Liu, who was protecting her, lowered her head slowly.

Chu Qinghe turned her head to see clearly that his entire back was full of arrows, like a hedgehog, while she was unscathed.

She knelt on the ground, with the lifeless Ying Liu in her arms, the corner of his mouth still had a final smile, he lived up to his trust and protected the princess, that's great!

She stared blankly at the front, her eyes glazed over, tears flowed unconsciously, her cheeks were already covered with water marks.

The city gates and crowds close at hand gradually blurred, her eyes were covered with a layer of white veil, and she knew that she might be blind again after being blind once, and the tears had dried up in the past few days, and her eyes probably I was crying.

No matter how much she cries, those who leave will never come back.

She was aggrieved and pursed her mouth, crying loudly.

It's all her fault, she killed a lot of people because of her will.

Just because she is a princess, everyone tried their best to protect her.

She couldn't hear a word of what people around her were saying, and those swords, lights and swords seemed to live in her mind, and scenes appeared in a loop.

There were a total of 55 dark guards accompanying her, and none of them survived.

None of the hundreds of people on Chongzhou Mountain survived.

Of so many people, she was the only one who survived.

Everyone said to her, princess, you have to live, and protecting the princess is our mission.

The faces of those who sacrificed for her appeared alternately in her mind, and finally she couldn't bear the stimulation, and fainted all of a sudden.
