"What does it mean to be a hero? I can't stay in this courtyard forever. Since I see injustice, I naturally want to help. If you want me to turn a blind eye, I can't do it." Yuan Jinyan was also a little angry.

"Isn't the prerequisite for helping me that you have the ability? If I was not here at that time, what would you do? Kill the eunuch? What about the remaining people in the cold palace? Will you take care of it?" .

Yuan Jinyan was asked. If Qingyun really didn't come, then she might really kill the eunuch. As for the follow-up, she really didn't know what to do.

Seeing her like this, Qingyun softened her tone and said, "You don't even have the ability to protect yourself now, so it's better not to meddle in others' affairs."

This nosy sentence aroused the anger in Yuan Jinyan's body. "Even if you put your own safety out of the matter, you can't just watch the weak being bullied. I can't do it! Why is it that you are the only one who can be this hero!".

"I don't want to be a hero. If you want to, that's up to you." Qingyun didn't want to continue arguing with her.

Seeing that Yuan Jinyan was doing well, she didn't want to stay any longer, so she turned around and left.

After leaving the cold palace, Qingyun was still a little aggrieved. But there was nothing he could do about Yuan Jinyan.

She did not go to Shen Lingfei, but returned directly to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The autumn hunt was held as scheduled, but Qingyun stayed at home because her health was not fully recovered. Also left behind was Shen Lingfei.

The autumn hunt originally took three full days, but because we were in a hurry this time, we could only prepare in a hurry for one day.

Although Emperor Yan didn't say anything, he was not very happy either.

The bright yellow car drove out of the palace gate, led by five tall and powerful golden-armored guards, as well as the imperial guards led by Yan Siyuan.

Behind them were the chariots of hundreds of officials, and there were also many soldiers surrounding them.

People retreated to both sides of the streets. Wherever cars passed by, people knelt down and shouted, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live my emperor."

In this way, as the people knelt down and worshiped, Emperor Yan and others walked out of the city gate.

Qingyun stood on the city wall, looking at the fleet of cars going away. I felt a little excited.

Calm returned to the capital once again. Even though only a few people were gone, the entire capital seemed empty. Even though she could see people coming and going, Qingyun still felt that the capital was empty.

The first night Emperor Yan left. Everything was silent, the bright moon was blocked by dark clouds, and not even a star could be seen.

Qingyun looked at the sky in trance. Jin Shui appeared quietly and knelt on one knee behind Qingyun, "Master, Mr. Shen has entered the palace."

"Well," Qingyun's cold voice came, but she made no move.

Jin Shui couldn't figure out Qingyun's meaning and asked, "Do you want my subordinates to bring the person out?"

"No, leave him alone", and then thought of something "help him lure away the guards".

"Yes" Jin Shui left.

She naturally had something to do when she stayed, and Qingyun expected Shen Lingfei to stay.

His eyes darkened, he looked away, and snapped his fingers, "Let's go to the palace."

She was still a little worried without going to see it with her own eyes.

In the cold palace, Qingyun was dressed in black and was hiding in the dark. While she was alert to her surroundings, she also didn't forget to listen to what was going on inside.

First, there were words of longing for the two of them, who had not seen each other for a long time. Later, it was the business.

Shen Ling held Yuan Jinyan's hand tightly and said, "Now that His Majesty is leaving the palace, it is a good time for you to leave."

"But when His Majesty comes back, he will definitely blame you, and it will also affect the entire Shen family." Yuan Jinyan was worried.

"There are very few people who know about the two of us. Even if His Majesty wants to investigate, he will not find me. And you have been in the cold palace for so long, His Majesty will never think of you again."

"But......".

"Stop it, I will send you away tonight." Shen Lingfei did not allow her to refuse.

"Where should I go after I leave?".

"The sky is high and the road is far, you can go anywhere. Do what you want to do, do what you should do."

Shen Lingfei understood that she didn't like being trapped in the palace. She has a dream of being a heroine. As long as she joins the world, His Majesty will not waste any effort to find such a person.

He couldn't bear to leave her, but he wanted her to be happy even more.

Yuan Jinyan's eyes were filled with mist, and her heart softened, "I'm sorry, I can't stay with you all the time."

"Soon, I will be able to accompany you soon." Shen Lingfei hugged the person into his arms, his eyes full of hope.

"Okay, then I'll wait for you," Yuan Jinyan wiped away his tears and said firmly.

Qingyun sighed deeply, clasped her hands together, and bowed to the sky.

He murmured to himself, "God, bless these two daring people, just this once."

Then, he waved to Jin Shui and said, "Open the back door and lead the patrolling people away."

"Yes", Jin Shui disappeared without a trace.

Qingyun hid in the corner, watching helplessly as two black figures walked out of the room, and quickly followed them.

He followed them all the way out of the cold palace, and then watched the two of them run out of the back door which was open a crack. Qingyun stood there, the surroundings were eerily quiet, not even the sound of insects.

On the quiet streets of Beijing, a carriage was driving quickly towards the city gate.

Qingyun stood at the door of the city tower. It was night and the city gate was closed, so she couldn't get out at all.

She took a token and scanned it in front of the guard. The guard didn't ask anything, lowered his head and opened the city gate. There was only enough distance for a carriage to pass.

Qingyun stood aside, watching the carriage completely leave the city gate, and looked at Shen Lingfei who was driving the horse, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as she was about to go back, a wave of heat washed over her cheeks. In just a moment, the entire city entrance was illuminated by fire.

Rows of crossbowmen stood on the city tower, holding bows and arrows, aiming at the carriage outside the city. Behind the crossbowmen stood a row of soldiers holding torches.

The heat that Qingyun felt was coming from the torch.

Qingyun reacted instantly and was about to shout outside the city. But the soldiers around him covered his mouth. He turned his hands behind his back and was suppressed in place. He could only watch helplessly as arrows rained down on the speeding carriage.

Qingyun's eyes widened and she struggled wildly, but she couldn't get away no matter what.

The carriage was penetrated by the rain of arrows and exploded instantly. The horses were also hit by arrows and fell to the ground with a neighing sound.

Yuan Jinyan flew out of the carriage, holding swords in both hands, and blocked the arrows. The pair of swords were still the ones given to her by Shen Lingfei.

Shen Lingfei wasn't much better either, he kept relying on his body skills to dodge. The dagger in his hand was also waved constantly.

This is outside the city gate, there is not even a shelter, they can only bear the pressure brought by the arrow rain.

Qingyun's anxious palms were sweating, and she saw that the two of them could no longer hold on any longer. The silver needle suddenly appeared in Qingyun's hand, and the two of them were stabbed, and they reflexively let go of Qingyun.
