Lu Jiuqing did not take the emperor's words of support to heart. On the contrary, the better the emperor treated her, the more uneasy she felt.

After coming out of Yinghua Palace, Lu Jiuqing immediately went back to Ruyiyuan to pack his things and left the palace immediately after the palace door opened tomorrow morning.

Without Yingyue by his side, no one else can trust him, so he can only do everything by himself.

During her stay in the palace, the emperor rewarded her with many things, each of which was priceless, but Lu Jiuqing didn't want to take any of them away. These things are royal. Although they are valuable, they cannot be sold or used. On the contrary, their whereabouts are easily exposed.

She didn't sleep well all night, feeling anxious and a little excited about escaping from the prison.

At dawn the next day, Lu Jiuqing got up and went out, leaving everyone behind without saying goodbye to anyone. She only left the palace with the badge given to her by the emperor.

After leaving the palace, she did not go to the Zhongyong Hou Mansion, but went directly to her own house.

Chen Yuan was already waiting for her in the house and was relieved when she came out.

As soon as Lu Jiuqing entered the door, he grabbed Chen Yuan's arm and said softly: "There are people following me outside. They should be Mo Xiao's people. Help me get rid of them. I must not let them discover my whereabouts."

Mo Xiao didn't want to see this child born, he wanted to kill the child in his belly.

This realization made Lu Jiuqing never want to see Mo Xiao again in his life, and he vowed never to let Mo Xiao find him.

She must keep this child, and no one can deprive her of the opportunity to be a mother.

Chen Yuan nodded: "I understand."

After entering the house, Lu Jiuqing changed into an inconspicuous outfit, then counted the banknotes in the box that Chen Yuan took out, simply packed them up and walked out of the back door.

There were ten identical carriages parked at the back door, and even the drivers were dressed similarly. Lu Jiuqing picked one of the cars and got on, and several other cars followed suit, walking out of the alley and then spreading out in all directions on the street.

After walking for a while, the carriage suddenly shook and Chen Yuan got in from the outside.

Her hair was a little messy and there was a thin layer of sweat on her face.

Lu Jiuqing quickly pulled her to his side: "How are you? Are you injured?"

Chen Yuan shook his head: "Although they are difficult to deal with, they are not deadly and they are not injured."

Lu Jiuqing breathed a sigh of relief.

She looked out at the distance and saw that she was about to reach the city gate. Lu Jiuqing said quickly: "Don't follow me later. They will know where I am when they see you. I am leaving the city alone. Don't worry. Wait until I settle down." I will write to you afterward.”

"Also," Lu Jiuqing held Chen Yuan's hand tightly and said word by word, "The prince is not a good man. If he asks to marry, I cannot agree to marry him under any circumstances."

Chen Yuan took a deep look at Lu Jiuqing, then nodded: "I understand."

As soon as the carriage paused, Chen Yuan jumped out of the carriage and walked in the other direction.

The small carriage followed the crowd out of the city gate and ran in an unknown direction.

Lu Jiuqing opened the curtains and looked back at the towering city gate that was getting further and further away. The big stone weighing on her heart finally loosened, allowing her to breathe.

It was the first time in her two lives that she left the capital.

She didn't know what was waiting for her, but Lu Jiuqing felt that the road ahead was full of hope.
