After the prince was reborn, he forced me to marry him and took me into the East Palace

"My dear, I have bought everything you requested!" Ajiu ran towards Wangyue Tower excitedly, carrying large and small bags of cakes in his hands and on his shoulders.

"Boom-"

Before he put down the things in his hands, they were all overturned.

Before Jiu could react, he felt a pain in his shoulder, was kicked over, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

His back was burning with pain, and in this cold winter, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Where is the person you were asked to guard?"

master?

Ajiu raised his head and saw Gu Jingheng looking at him with cold eyes. Nan Yuan was no longer in the room.

"You are so brave to leave your post without permission!"

Gu Jingheng's face was as dark as water and as cold as ice in winter, with a biting and chilly air emanating from all around him.

They couldn’t even guard a single person, and with so many people in the Prince’s Mansion, they still let Nan Yuan escape.

"I deserve to die..." Jiu knelt on one knee on the ground with his head lowered.

Gu Jingheng pinched his swollen eyebrows and felt extremely annoyed.

"Bring out the snow mastiff and search for it!"

Gu Jingheng walked out with big strides.

Ajiu's eyes suddenly turned into fear.

Snow Mastiff.

Gu Jingheng had raised this hunting dog for a long time. The dog had a violent temperament and was usually only docile towards Gu Jingheng. Anyone else would be bitten if they got close to him.

But it has a keen sense of smell and is extremely intelligent. Once it sets its sights on you, you cannot escape.

"Yes, master."

Ajiu stood up tremblingly and quickly called several fully armed guards to lead the snow mastiff out.

……

Yishan.

At this time, Nan Yuan had no idea that there was chaos in the Prince's Mansion. She followed a small path and kept running forward.

It snowed a few days ago, and the mountains and forests were covered in white, with the leaves dyed snow-white.

Nan Yuan was struggling to walk in the snow, feeling a piercing pain in her feet.

"hiss--"

She looked down at her left foot and saw that the skin was worn away and bright red blood had seeped into her shoes and socks, which looked horrifying.

The hem of her skirt was also torn by the branches, looking extremely miserable.

She picked up a branch to use as a crutch, endured the pain, and continued to limp forward.

"Nan Yuan!"

Before she had gone far, she heard someone calling her from behind.

Nan Yuan subconsciously looked back and saw a person jumping down from a tree trunk not far away.

The sunlight was reflected by the snow and refracted into golden spots, so bright that people couldn't open their eyes.

Nan Yuan covered her eyes with her hands and squinted for a while before she adjusted to the light. She raised her eyes and looked at the man standing in front of her.

He was wearing a dark red robe, a black silk belt around his waist, a white fox fur coat, a black jade pendant around his waist, sheepskin boots on his feet, and his jet-black hair was tied up with a jewel-studded crown.

His handsome facial features are angular, his sword-like eyebrows slant into his temples, his thin lips are slightly pursed, his nose is high, and his eyebrows and eyes are more delicate than those of a woman.

Nan Yuan didn't have a deep impression of him in her memory. Even if she knew him, she was not familiar with him.

"Have you been doing well during this period?" Hua Qichuan looked at the woman in front of him, his narrow and charming phoenix eyes filled with complex emotions.

Nan Yuan took two steps back, distanced herself from him, and looked at him with cold and distant eyes.

“It should be bad.”

Otherwise, why would he not stay in the Prince's Mansion but have to run to this desolate mountain and wilderness?

Some time ago, he first thought that there was something wrong with Ah Qi, and tracked him down and investigated for several days. As a result, he found out that Gu Jingheng had driven him to the Dark Guard Camp, and the clues were interrupted at this point.

He wanted to know about Nan Yuan's situation, but Shen Zhaixing, who had met Nan Yuan before, refused to tell him what happened in the Prince's Mansion.

However, he guessed that Nan Yuan must be having a hard time, otherwise someone as thick-skinned as Shen Zhaixing would not keep silent about it.

If he wanted to know about Nan Yuan, he could only wait outside the Prince's Mansion.

As luck would have it, he heard the news of Nan Yuan's escape today and hurriedly followed her trail.

He grew up in the army, and his skills in tracking down traces are beyond Gu Jingheng's reach.

Therefore, he was able to find Nan Yuan before anyone else.

"Are you going to run away?" Hua Qichuan walked in front of Nan Yuan and looked down at the person in front of him.

The thin and petite figure stood there, with her head slightly lowered and her hands tightly grasping the branches across her chest.

The plain white dress made her exquisite figure look even more slender and fragile.

Nan Yuan raised her eyes and met his gaze.

This person was very strange, and what he said sounded as if she knew him very well.

Nan Yuan was a little confused about who he was, but she didn't say anything. She just said, "It's none of your business. Get out of the way."

She had important things to do and didn't have time to chat with a stranger.

Hua Qichuan frowned, "You don't know me?"

"Should I know you?" Nan Yuan asked back.

Hua Qichuan sighed: "Forget it, just follow me first."

He now knows that Nan Yuan wants to leave the Prince's Mansion, so he will help her leave.

But now is not the time to talk. If you want to run, you must hurry up, otherwise you will be caught up in a while.

He reached out and grabbed her and walked forward.

"Hey? What are you doing?"

Nan Yuan was forced to follow him and struggled hard, but failed to break free from his restraints.

This man was very strong and his grip on her wrist caused her to feel a slight pain.

Why?

She didn't know him, so why should she go with him?

"You let go!"

Nan Yuan took a few steps and shook his hand off.

Seeing the alertness on Nan Yuan's face, Hua Qichuan explained: "If you keep going like this, you will be caught up in less than an hour. If you want to escape, then follow me."

She didn't even know the person in front of her, so how could she possibly follow him?

Nan Yuan took two steps back, looked at him warily, and said, "I don't know who you are, nor do I know what you are planning, but I'm telling you, I can't go with you, you'd better stay away from me."

Nan Yuan clenched the branch in her hand, looking defensive.

Hua Qichuan raised his eyebrows, with a hint of surprise in his eyes: "You really don't remember me at all?"

Looking closely at Nan Yuan's eyes, it seemed that she really didn't remember him.

"do not remember."

Nan Yuan took a few steps back, trying to keep a certain distance from him, but unexpectedly the snow under her feet slipped and she fell backwards uncontrollably.

"Be careful."

Hua Qichuan took a step forward, put his arms around Nan Yuan's waist, and easily held her in his arms.

"Let me go!" Nan Yuan was furious and struggled hard.

After hearing Nan Yuan say this, Hua Qichuan realized that this was inappropriate and quickly let go of her hand.

Nan Yuan immediately walked around him and walked forward.

She still had her plans to fulfill and didn't want to be stopped by the person in front of her.

Hua Qichuan coughed softly, followed Nan Yuan, and said, "My last name is Hua. We met at the White Horse Temple."

Although there was a veil between us, he could still see Nan Yuan's face as pale as paper, and he frowned unconsciously.

"White Horse Temple?"

Nan Yuan stopped what she was doing, turned around, and looked at the other person's face carefully, as if he was a little bit familiar with it.

Hua Qichuan took off his hood, revealing his bald head that had just grown an inch of hair, and asked, "Do you remember now?"

flower?

White Horse Temple?

The combination of these two names, coupled with the other party's familiar tone, suddenly made Nan Yuan remember: "Are you Hua Gongzi?"

She remembered that she was trapped in the White Horse Temple before and she thought she would never get out in this life. Then she met Hua Qichuan who was also trapped in the White Horse Temple with her, and the two of them had conspired to escape together!

Later, he was picked up by someone.

Not long after, he followed Gu Jingheng out of the White Horse Temple.

After experiencing so much despair, if Hua Qichuan hadn't brought it up now, she would have almost forgotten everything about the White Horse Temple.

"It's me. My name is Hua Qichuan. You must remember this time... Be careful!"

Hua Qichuan pushed Nan Yuan away, and a Tibetan mastiff pounced towards him.

The Tibetan Mastiff's mouth was wide open, its fangs were sharp, and its exposed fangs exuded a sinister chill.

There was a bloodthirsty red in his eyes and he opened his mouth to bite Hua Qichuan.

Hua Qichuan was unable to dodge and was bitten hard by the Tibetan Mastiff, and blood was immediately gushing out.

He was unarmed and lost the initiative, so he was thrown to the snow by the Tibetan Mastiff and fought fiercely with it.

"Hua Qichuan!"

Nan Yuan was pushed down into the snow. There was thick snow, but she was not injured.

But the piercing pain in her ankle made her bend down involuntarily, and her face became even paler.

But when she saw a man and a dog fighting for their lives in the snow, Nan Yuan didn't care about anything else and stood up to help.

"A Yuan, you still want to run?"

Before Nan Yuan remembered to stand up, her waist felt tighter and she was pulled against a cold, hard chest. Gu Jingheng's cold and sarcastic voice rang in her ears.

She turned her head and met a pair of extremely gloomy black eyes, which were flashing with anger and mockery.

Nan Yuan's breathing stagnated, her heart was pounding, and she felt indescribably panicked.

Before she could say anything, she heard Gu Jingheng sneer, pinch her chin, and ask her to look at the man and the dog. He whispered in her ear, "My dear, who do you think will win?"

God knows what his mood is now.

Although Ah Qi had discovered that Hua Qichuan and Nan Yuan had an unusual relationship, that was only hearsay. Now that he saw it with his own eyes, he felt like his blood was boiling.

His best brother is going to elope with the woman he loves most!

How can I accept this?

How can you not be angry?

Taking into account that Nan Yuan was timid, he had tried very hard to control his temper, and his tone of voice was very gentle.

But to Nan Yuan, this sounded like the death knell.

She looked at the tangled figures on the snow.

The blood had dyed a large area of ​​snow red, and the blood was dripping all the way along the wound.

Hua Qichuan was already seriously injured. The beast had bitten him too deeply. There were several rows of teeth marks on his arm and blood was oozing out. However, he didn't care and kept punching the Tibetan Mastiff.

"Gu Jingheng, stop making trouble. Someone might die." Nan Yuan's voice was filled with anxiety and panic, and there was a slight tremor in it.

"Human life? What's human life?" Gu Jingheng sneered.

He said that Nan Yuan was such a timid person, how could he dare to escape and run so far away? It turned out that someone wanted to poach him!

If you dare to reach out to his Prince's Mansion, you must be prepared to be retaliated by him.

"Crazy!" Nan Yuan realized that Gu Jingheng would never stop, so she could only try hard to break free from his restraints and help Hua Qichuan.

If this continues, even if he is not bitten to death by the Tibetan Mastiff, he will lose too much blood.

However, Gu Jingheng's arms seemed to be as hard as steel, and no matter how hard Nan Yuan tried, she was unable to get rid of him.

He held Nan Yuan's slender waist, increasing the strength in his hands, and asked, "Ayuan, it's all his fault. He seduced you, right?"

Gu Jingheng suddenly approached Nan Yuan, pinched her shoulders, forced her to turn around and look at him, and said with bloodshot eyes: "Tell me that you were just deceived, that you ran away from the mansion on impulse, that you still love me, and will stay by my side in the future."

Gu Jingheng spoke word by word, his eyes revealing madness.

"Ayuan...you still love me, right?" Gu Jingheng grabbed Nanyuan's shoulders, shook her body vigorously, and asked, "Tell me that you still love me, and only me. You only belong to me, and you cannot fall in love with other men."

"talk!"

Nan Yuan was frightened by him. She shrank back and spoke incoherently, stumbling: "Gu...Gu Jingheng, calm down first and ask someone to bring the dog back. We can talk about it after the dog is brought back, okay?"

Gu Jingheng remained unmoved.

"If this goes on, someone will really die!" Nan Yuan's voice was filled with tears, and tears rolled in her eyes.

The Tibetan Mastiff opened its bloody mouth and bit Hua Qichuan's neck. Hua Qichuan tried hard to pry the Tibetan Mastiff's mouth open and held on.

Seeing Nan Yuan so worried, Gu Jingheng was furious. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards him fiercely: "Yuan, you are worried about him being injured, but what about me being injured?"

He pressed Nan Yuan's small hand against his chest and said word by word, "Do you know how much pain I felt? Do you know how much pain I felt when I found out you were leaving me? It was bleeding, as if a knife was cutting my flesh."

Nan Yuan wanted to pull her hand back, but she couldn't resist him. He pressed her hand tightly against her chest. She could feel her heart beating violently, hitting her palm again and again.

Nan Yuan's tears finally fell, slid down her fair and delicate cheeks, and dripped onto his fingertips.

Gu Jingheng looked at her crying and felt extremely distressed. He reached out his hand to wipe away her tears and whispered tenderly, "Don't cry, dear."

Nan Yuan choked up and said, "Gu Jingheng, don't be like this."

She felt terrified when he acted like this, so she might as well lose her temper, as that would make it feel a little more real.

"Then what should I do? What should I do so that you can fall in love with me again?"

Gu Jingheng's eyes suddenly turned cold. He looked at Hua Qichuan and said coldly, "It's all his fault. It would be better without him, don't you think?"

Nan Yuan seemed to realize what he wanted to do and reached out to grab him, but she failed to catch even a piece of his clothes and watched him walk towards Hua Qichuan.

"Gu Jingheng."

Nan Yuan got up from the ground and wanted to go over to stop him, but was stopped by Ajiu, who looked at her and said, "My dear, it's dangerous over there."

"Get out of the way." No matter how she scolded and pushed him, Jiu refused to move even a step.

Nan Yuan could only watch Gu Jingheng getting closer and closer to Hua Qichuan.

As Gu Jingheng approached, the Tibetan Mastiff gradually opened its mouth and obediently retreated to the side.

Hua Qichuan breathed a sigh of relief, covered the wound on his left arm, and stood up.

Didn’t Gu Jingheng say that Hua Qichuan is his best brother?

Then you shouldn't be cruel to him, right?

pity……

There was a flash of gloom and determination in Gu Jingheng's eyes. He raised his leg and kicked Hua Qichuan in the abdomen. Pain instantly spread throughout his body.

"Pooh." Hua Qichuan spat out a mouthful of blood foam and stood up again.

"Don't bully your friend's wife. Don't you understand this?" Gu Jingheng grabbed Hua Qichuan by the collar and punched him.

"Even rabbits don't eat grass near their burrows, and you're trying to steal my girl?" Gu Jingheng roared angrily and punched Hua Qichuan hard in the face.

Hua Qichuan was beaten so hard that he staggered a few steps, with bright red blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, but he didn't care at all and a wicked smile appeared on the corners of his mouth.

He shook his head and sobered up a little. He looked at Gu Jingheng and said, "I'll let you punch me twice and kick me once. I'll let you down and calm you down. Next, I'll play with you."
