Xiao Dai took her to the Zen room where he lived and poured tea for her himself. His words were full of care.

But the person sitting on the stool was on pins and needles, smiling very forcedly, and her mind was filled with Shen Yue who was burning incense and worshiping Buddha. If the person ran away, wouldn't she have wasted her time again?

"My lord, why are you here?" The girl asked curiously, holding the cup of warm tea without moving.

Xiao Dai said enthusiastically: "I am here to exchange Buddhist teachings."

Cui Yingying said oh, her mood waned, and she almost forgot that this great prince was a serious fan of Buddhism. If the current queen hadn't threatened her with death, he would have become a monk long ago.

But now this state is no different from becoming a monk, it’s just a matter of shaving your hair.

"Why are you in such a mess when you go up the mountain?" Xiao Dai looked up and down at the girl in front of him. The orange tunic was dirty and dusty.

Cui Yingying lowered her head and looked at her appearance. In order to avoid being discovered by Shen Yue when she was going up the mountain, she had been hiding in the bushes on both sides, not caring about her image.

"I fell down." She said naturally.

Xiao Dai advised doubtfully: "The mountain road is rugged, so be careful."

The two stared at each other until she couldn't hold it in any longer.

"Then you get busy first while I walk around." Cui Yingying put the tea cup down smoothly, got up and left.

Xiao Dai hurriedly stopped her, "Don't rush, don't rush, it's still early and I have nothing to do right now, so just talk to me!"

"You're fine, but I'm fine!" Cui Yingying said with a bitter look on her face.

"Are you in a hurry?" Xiao Dai suddenly became frustrated.

She nodded fiercely, it was very urgent, every inch of time, every inch of money was a big deal.

"Then go ahead!" Xiao Dai reluctantly said goodbye and chased to the door of the Zen room in a daze, "Yingying, come and sit down if you have time."

The summer wind was so strong that it blew Xiao Dai's voice away, and the man who was walking so fast didn't hear it at all.

Xiao Dai stood at the door and let out a long sigh, "I wanted to keep this little girl sitting here for a while so that I could meet my brother. It's a pity."

"Master wants to bring together Princess Chao Xi and His Highness the Crown Prince?" Shangying was shocked when he heard this.

"Don't you think they are a good match?" Xiao Dai asked with expectation.

Shangying thought about it seriously and didn't dare to reply. I really didn't feel that way.

"The portraits of girls from aristocratic families that you sent to His Highness the Crown Prince are countless. What if His Highness the Crown Prince falls in love with someone else?" Shangying hinted worriedly.

Xiao Dai said without hesitation: "For my brother, I have no choice but to wrong him."

Qingyun Temple is the most popular temple in Yecheng. Its scale is breathtaking. She spent a lot of time running all the way. She hurried slowly just in time to catch up with Shen Yue who came out to pray for blessings. She sneaked in Standing behind the little monk next to the merit incense.

"Donor, you..." The little monk was startled and almost jumped up. The monk's robe was tightly grabbed and he could not stand up.

Cui Yingying raised her index finger and shushed him, and then said with a puzzled face: "The person who was guarding here just now was not you! Where is that little monk?"

"That senior brother suddenly suffered from heat stroke, so the young monk came to replace him." The young monk clasped his hands together and explained in a gentle voice.

Cui Yingying snorted, watched Shen Yue leave, then stood up and patted him heavily on the shoulder, "Being a vegetarian is not easy, thank you for your hard work."

Little monk: "..."

"Young lady has been coming here every month, and I don't know when this torment will end." The sun was blazing, and the maid next to Shen Yue held an umbrella for her. She felt very sorry for her young lady, and couldn't help but complain, "Miss. I have been waiting for the Ruan family for many years."

You can't really wait until the filial piety period expires, right?

Shen Yue was a calm person. She casually held up the hem of her skirt and walked down the steps. She said calmly: "The Ruan family is an aristocratic family, and there are many rules. Not to mention that keeping filial piety is a matter of course. I can certainly wait."

"Don't say such words again in the future. It would not be good if others heard it and spread it to the ears of the Ruan family."

Cui Wei could only nod her head reluctantly, "I understand."

The master and servant didn't notice the sneaky figure behind them that kept approaching them.

At the same time, in the woods at the foot of the mountain, Liang Heng was furious. It had been two hours and no one had come down yet.

"I said, didn't you just say that your lady only goes there for half an hour every time?" He pulled the black cloth from his face, squatted down and patted the sleepy groom.

The groom and the boy who came with him were knocked unconscious by him not long ago and brought here. They thought he was looking for money and cried and begged for mercy. However, the other party was indifferent. It was not until he inquired about the whereabouts of the young lady that they understood that this People come prepared.

The young man looked at the sword in his hand and said tremblingly: "Miss, it's only half an hour, but the road up and down the mountain is difficult, so it will inevitably be delayed for a while."

Liang Heng pursed his lips and was irritated. Just as he stood up, there was a sound of fireworks exploding in the sky. His eyes suddenly lit up. He hurriedly began to check his clothes, and anxiously took out the script in his arms to familiarize himself again. Memorize it.

"I wonder why the direction is southwest? Isn't it the northeast as promised?" Before leaving, Liang Heng couldn't help but muttered when he remembered the direction in which the fireworks bloomed just now. After a moment, he shook his head and said to Cui Yingying with confidence: "Little My sister is extremely smart, something must have gone wrong, and she acted accordingly."

With this thought in mind, Liang Heng hurried over in stride.

Little did she know that the extremely smart person in his mouth was still following the people in front of her in a sneaky way at this moment, completely forgetting about the fireworks. When she heard the fireworks, she still raised her head in confusion, and only realized it later. He patted his head and melon seeds.

"How could I forget this?"

"It's really strange, how could someone set off fireworks in a place like this when the sky is clear and sunny?" Cui Wei said in confusion.

Shen Yue was also a little confused. She didn't know why it was always weird when she went out today. She always felt like someone was following her, but every time she turned around, there was nothing.

She shook her head and was frightened by her ridiculous idea, "Maybe it's a passerby!"

There was no one on the way down the mountain, and everyone took different roads. When they reached the foot of the mountain, the master and the servant went to look for their carriage, but found that there was nothing after searching around.

"It's strange, I clearly remember it being here!" Cui Wei scratched her head and looked confused.

Shen Yue frowned, feeling anxious in her heart. She suppressed this uneasiness and said, "Let's go and have a look. Maybe they went somewhere else."

Cui Wei responded and went to the front alone to continue searching.

The midday sun was unbearably hot. Shen Yue held an oil-paper umbrella and waited under the shade of a tree. The time for a cup of tea had passed, but Cui Wei hadn't come back yet. She couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and after thinking about it, she planned to go and have a look. Before Keren could take two steps, several men in black descended from the sky and surrounded her.

Cui Yingying, who had been following behind, suddenly stood up from the bushes, "Damn it, why are there so many?"

Did Liang Heng spend the money separately?

"The girl is the Ruan family's unmarried fiancée, right?" The leading man in black held the bright sword in his hand and approached her.

Shen Yue was so frightened that her face turned pale. She kept backing away and said hesitantly: "You...who are you? What do you want to do?"

"It's nothing, it's just that my master wants to invite the girl to sit down and have some things to discuss with her."

Shen Yue panicked and kept shouting for help. She turned around and ran away with tears in her eyes. However, because her skirt was too long, she fell down before taking two steps.

Seeing those people getting closer and closer, Cui Yingying, who had been anxiously behind, jumped out with a stamp of her feet. Without saying a word, she took out the banknotes she carried with her and the broken silver in her purse and threw them at them. .

Taking advantage of their distraction, he picked up Shen Yue who fell on the ground and ran, "Run quickly."

Shen Yue had no time to react and had no choice but to keep running forward with her.

"Cui Yingying, why is it you?" Shen Yue was shocked when she saw the person who saved her.

There was wind at Cui Yingying's feet, and as she heard the threatening voice coming closer and closer from behind, she cried out in despair: "I don't want to do that either!"

The people behind were following closely, and they couldn't escape at all. Cui Yingying glanced at the dress on her body, pulled her behind and hid behind a big tree, and quickly took off her dress and put it on herself.

"Let's run separately. Don't look back. I'll lure them away." She explained hurriedly.

The life value thing is to play with your life.

Too deadly.

Shen Yue was stunned, "You...Cui Yingying, how can I do that?"

She never imagined that she would be the one to rush out to save herself at the critical moment.

Cui Yingying almost burst into tears, "Sister! Leave me alone, this is not the time to be sensational, run away!"

Shen Yue was pushed by her and ran to the northeast, while Cui Yingying put on her dress and ran all the way to the southwest. The speed was so fast that the killers behind him were startled, and then they chased away.

"Help! Help! Liang Heng, help!" Cui Yingying screamed as she ran.

Originally, the hero saved the beauty, but now she hopes that someone will be the hero to save the beauty.

When she was desperate, the people behind her who were chasing her had no sound. There were only screams one after another. She suddenly stopped and looked back. The few men in black who had been chasing after them disappeared in an instant. There was no trace left, only the dust floating out when a huge pit collapsed.

Cui Yingying waited there for a while, then threw a small stone inside. After making sure there was no danger, she approached cautiously.

The girl lay on the edge of the huge pit and stuck her head out. Her eyes lit up when she saw the situation inside, and she suppressed the tears of fear.

"Aren't you happy with the retribution?" She immediately jumped up and looked at the people in the pit provocatively with her hands on her hips. "Do you know what a protagonist is? An awesome person who can learn peerless martial arts even after falling off a cliff. If you mess with me, you How many lives?"

[Congratulations to the host, Shen Yue’s favorability value is zero. 】The system pops up and reports promptly.

Cui Yingying felt relieved, and wiped the embarrassment on her face with a sigh, "It's not in vain that I spent so much effort."

She knelt down, picked up the small stones nearby and threw them into the pit. Looking at the people trapped in the trap set by the hunter, she asked, "Who are you? Why do you want to kill Shen Yue?"

"What does it have to do with you? I advise you to stay out of this matter, otherwise you will only get into trouble." The man in black threatened fiercely.

Cui Yingying rolled up her sleeves and picked up a handful of small stones and threw them at them one by one. "Okay, it's okay if you don't want to say it. Let's play slowly. Anyway, the sky here is not responding to the sky and the earth is not working."

"Cui Yingying."

Just as she finished speaking, a cold voice sounded behind her, which scared her so much that she almost jumped forward and fell into it.

Fortunately, the person behind caught her by the back of the neck in time.

"Your Majesty... Your Highness?" She turned around with a look of astonishment on her face.

Damn it, how could the prince be here in the wilderness?

"Princess!" Tang Yang said weakly next to him.

His Highness was originally going to Qingyun Temple to visit the Grand Prince, but he was unexpectedly ambushed on the way. After finally dealing with the assassins, he heard the noise coming from here and rushed over. Who would have thought that it was Princess Chao Xi.

Cui Yingying waved, "Tang Yang! What a coincidence!"

Tang Yang: "..."

"Deal with it." Xiao Su glanced at the people in the pit and ordered Tang Yang.

Tang Yang held up his hands, glanced at Cui Yingying hesitantly, and then said: "Yes."

"Still not leaving?" Xiao Su asked with the tail of his eyes glancing at the people who were motionless and even some who were eager to take a look.

Cui Yingying turned around and followed her step by step, walking very hard, "Your Highness, won't you take her back for interrogation? These people want to kill Miss Shen, who is the eldest daughter of the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue!"

Does the minister's daughter have nothing to do with her?

"The person they want to kill is Miss Shen, why are they chasing you?" Xiao Su answered the question with a raised eyebrow, focusing on the key point.

Cui Yingying patted her chest righteously and said, "I act bravely when I see justice."

Act bravely?

No matter how she heard this word, it didn't fit in with her.

Xiao Su hummed and said nothing.

"Why is His Royal Highness here?" Cui Yingying caught a glimpse of the blood on his clothes and her heartbeat slowed down for half a beat. It couldn't be such a coincidence, right?

The prince was also assassinated?

"Gu is also brave enough to do justice." Xiao Su glanced at her with a half-smile.

Cui Yingying laughed dryly and said, "Your Highness will also meet the assassin, right?"

The world is too unsafe and the public security is too bad.

The prince will be assassinated, so wouldn't she, a rich person...

Cui Yingying silently clutched her little heart and secretly made up her mind not to take so much money with her when going out in the future, but to keep a low profile.

"Perhaps when you see Gu Sheng's beauty, you feel ashamed and have murderous intentions!" Xiao Su replied to her without blushing.

Cui Yingying thought about it and felt that it made sense. He was indeed beautiful, just like a delicate flower. "Then His Highness will need to bring more guards when he goes out in the future."

Tang Yang was unreliable at first glance.

Tang Yang, who quickly killed several unknown killers, sneezed at an inappropriate time.
