Ruthless debt

In the early morning of the next day, Prince Che called Nan'er to Yingniang's house, and told about what happened last night.He ordered them to pack up all the things they took away, but Mu Ziduan would come to pick them up at noon.After hearing this, Nan'er was naturally overjoyed, but after understanding clearly, she realized that this return to the country was not a perfect one, so she became depressed again, and she didn't know whether this journey was good or bad.

Yingniang had been ill for a long time, and she couldn't even get out of bed in the past few days. If she mentioned this matter today, she didn't avoid her, so she definitely wouldn't be left behind.Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in her heart, but she knew very well that it was a long way to go, and no matter whether she could withstand wind, food and sleep with her sick body, if there were more soldiers chasing her, she would The appearance must drag them down.

She sighed heavily, unconsciously her eyes were wet, she wiped them carelessly, and then forcefully got out of bed.

He took out a few joss sticks from the drawer in the outer room, but unfortunately he couldn't make any decent sacrifices, so he had to fill three bowls of water and take them to the corner of the backyard.Burning the incense candles one by one, inserting them into the soil after worshiping, Yingniang sighed, and said: "I think you are also lucky, and you are all dying here when you are in the midst of youthful charm. I don't know that the road is long You can recognize and go back, if Quanxia knows, and follow His Highness today, he will take you back."

The bodies of the three of them could not be retrieved that day, so they could only find a few objects used during their lifetime, and set up a tomb for them in the corner of the backyard. Are they still in this clear and cold yard now?

Yingniang said again: "I have served His Highness for many years, and today he respects me but it is also a blessing from his previous life, but..." Speaking of this, I thought I would say no more, and after a long silence, I finally got up. He smiled and said: "Hey, that's all, I'll talk to you in a moment when I go down."

After breakfast, the prince Che went to Nan'er to confirm that everything was ready, and to avoid people's eyes and ears, he couldn't bring anything except some soft things.After confirming the necessary things one by one, Prince Che finally let go of his heart.It can be seen that once out of this 'Weiling City', it will be difficult to cross the state without these things, let alone return to Qu Country!

Mu Ziduan was punctual, he just arrived when the sun was directly above his head, followed by two guards and maidservants, and they all led into the courtyard.After everyone came in, Nan'er looked outside the courtyard door for a while and then hurriedly closed the courtyard door. At this time, the prince Che and Zuo Qi had also come out, and they walked into the house together without saying a word.

Because the prince Che hadn't seen Yingniang coming out for a long time, he asked Nan'er to call, and Nan'er went in response, but in the blink of an eye, her call came from inside the room.

Zuo Qi was the first to rush in, and saw that Yingniang had hanged herself on the beam of the room, while Nan'er was hugging her legs tightly below, talking nonsense.

The people behind also came in. Seeing this scene, the clothes that Prince Che was waiting to change fell to the ground.He rushed forward and helped Zuo Qi to hold Yingniang down, while Nan'er murmured at the side: "My body is still warm, not dead, not dead..." Then he touched her pulse.

After probing her wrist and neck, Nan'er shook her head to probe Yingniang's breath, but she didn't feel any breath coming out for a long time, so she froze in place.The two looked at her without saying a word, and seeing her like this, they knew that Yingniang had gone.

After a while, Nan'er finally lost control, and fell down on Yingniang's chest and burst into tears.Zuo Qi couldn't bear to see her like this, so he stretched out his hand to pull her. It took a long time to pull her down, and then Nan'er fell into his arms again, crying louder.

The prince Che was silent at the side, deeply saddened in his heart, staring at the white silk still dangling on the beam for a long time, only then did he understand why Yingniang wanted to die.Not long after, he sneered, and couldn't remember the people who died because of him in the past four years. He only remembered the day when he first arrived at Lanyang Palace. After sweeping the cobweb dust in several rooms, Liu Pin twisted an unmatched handkerchief and wiped the tables and chairs, while Jin Er, with her hips on her hips, ordered Liu Pin and the others to make irresponsible remarks... This scene seems to be still yesterday, and it happened in the middle. However, after four years, the vicissitudes of life have already changed beyond recognition.

Turning to look at Nan'er again, after going through all this, she has been tortured so weak that her petite body is trembling, making people feel more distressed.Prince Che turned his face away, and envied her for no reason. If he hadn't experienced these things, he must be like her at this moment, able to cry without any scruples!

Mu Ziduan stepped forward, patted Prince Che on the shoulder, and said with a long sigh: "The deceased is gone, I hope His Highness mourns, and I know that His Highness is deeply saddened, but there are more important things right now, so we cannot delay for a moment." .”

Prince Che lowered his head and said: "I can't bear to leave her here like this, can you allow me to settle her down before leaving?"

Hearing this, Mu Ziduan became more and more anxious, so he said: "How do we settle down in the palace? Your Highness will go out of the palace with me first, and I will entrust someone to take care of everything after you leave. Don't worry, Your Highness. Things are still going well.”

Mu Ziduan's eyes were sincere, and what he just said didn't seem like an emergency message. After thinking about it for a while, it was easy to dispel the worries in his heart: "Nan'er, don't cry, change your clothes quickly and go out of the palace with Master Mu, I believe him I will take care of my aunt."

Nan'er shook her head, still crying and said: "I won't leave, leaving my aunt here alone, how can I bear it..."

Zuo Qi comforted softly: "What good is it for you to stay here? Don't you know why my aunt is like this today? If you want her to leave in peace, then listen to Ah Che's words, wipe away your tears and change your clothes quickly, and don't waste your time in vain. Yingniang's painstaking efforts." After finishing speaking, she gently pushed Nan'er away and left the room first.

"Nan'er, I was accompanied by a group of 63 people. Now only you and Aqi are left in front of me..." The words were endless, Prince Che bit his lips and said nothing, just followed Zuo Qi out of the house.

Although the tears in her eyes still couldn't stop, she changed her clothes, and the three of them dressed up as guards and maidservants, and followed Mu Ziduan to the palace gate.

Everyone knew that Prince Che was blind in his left eye, and he kept his head down all the way in fear of being spotted.However, going out of the palace was much smoother than in the resemblance. The guard saw that it was Mu Ziduan, so he opened the palace gate without asking more questions. All three of them sweated until they left the palace gate. He let out a heavy sigh of relief.

Walking out of the 'Weiling City', there was already a group of people waiting not far from the city. It seemed that there were about 40, No. [-] people.Seeing Mu Ziduan coming, the leader hurried forward, knelt on one knee and said, "My lord."

Mu Ziduan called him to get up, then turned his head and said to Prince Che: "Your Majesty will notice soon after you leave the palace, in order to avoid being overtaken by the pursuers, please get on your horse quickly, so that you can go all the way without delay. .These 30 people are one-in-a-million fighters, and they will protect you on the way. If the pursuers really catch up, Your Highness just go first, and they will be able to resist for a while."

The prince Che said gratefully: "Master Mu's kindness of saving, Qian Che has nothing to repay."

Mu Ziduan said: "Your Highness, there is no need to say more. There will be a period after this farewell. It is not too late to say thank you at that time."

He didn't say any more, got on his horse and went with the team.

According to Mu Ziduan's words, everyone rode their horses along the way, and they didn't dare to delay for a while, but Nan'er didn't know how to ride a horse and needed someone to take it with her. She and Zuo Qi rode together, so she was a little behind.

The prince Che slowed down to walk with them and was imprisoned for several years, so the sorrow and sorrow accumulated in his heart for a long time inevitably dissipated when he was running in this vast world.Looking at Zuo Qi again, most of the shadows between his brows have faded away like the clouds and the sun, if he wasn't on the horse, he might be able to see it more clearly.

The crowd walked silently until sunset, when the leader suddenly reined in and waited for a while. After they followed up, he turned his horse's head and walked up to Prince Che: "Walk for another half an hour. If we can go to Liangxi City, I'm afraid the gate will be closed when we get there, why don't we just find a place to rest for the night, and then enter the city tomorrow morning, what does Your Highness think?"

This person's name is Mu Ziwei, and he is the son of Uncle Mu Ziduan. He has always followed Mu Ziduan's lead, never asked the reason for his orders, and just obeyed them.Although she knew that the person in front of her was the prince Che of the Qu country, she couldn't help but only had his cousin in her eyes, and she usually acted casually, so she couldn't help but lose the proper manners when speaking.

The prince Che didn't care, he just said: "It's up to you, it's just this wilderness, where should I stay?"

Hearing this, he couldn't help laughing, and said unhurriedly: "Your Highness, don't blame me, it's just that I didn't make it clear that it would be too conspicuous for our large group of people to stay overnight, so we can only feel wronged before we leave the border of Shuo Kingdom." His Highness slept in the wild with us."

Prince Che glanced at Zuo Qi and Nan'er: "Just do as you wish!"

After nightfall, a group of people led by Mu Ziwei went down to a dense forest outside the city, found a place near a water source, and ordered his men to set up camp.Then he sent two more people to go back, and set up secret sentries on the way. If pursuers came during the period, they could fire gunpowder to notify everyone.
