"Why are you sad? It's too late for me to be happy. That idiot was daydreaming and took advantage of the lax guard around me to kidnap me. You came too late. I have fought with him twice. I have been with him since I was a child. I have never suffered such a crime! Letting him die like this is simply an advantage for him."
Chen Xueying gritted her teeth, as if she still didn't understand her hatred.
"Your bodyguard said you eloped with him."
"Which guard? He must be in the same group as the idiot. I'll chop off his head when I get back!" Chen Xueying asked immediately, her eyes widened, and she opened her mouth to behead him.
The man was silent for a moment and then said: "It has been chopped."
He couldn't remember which one it was.
Anyway, I heard at that time that the princess and the princess had run away. This was a great shame and humiliation for Lu Zhao, so he basically killed everyone he could.
This time it was Chen Xueying who was choked. Damn it, this Prince of Northern Qi is serious, he is really a madman.
Help, she has never fought against a madman.
But Yu Cheng's body was still lying next to her, so she had to keep acting, otherwise she would have to lie down.
"Those who do wrong things always have to pay the price. What's more, I came to Northern Qi to get married, which is related to the diplomatic relations between the two countries. It is an important matter, but such mistakes have been made. I should be punished." She spoke uprightly.
In fact, I was praying silently in my heart: I know you died unjustly, but I am also a victim. If you want revenge, go to the original owner, or stay with the mad prince and torture him day and night.
From now on, every year on the death anniversary, if I am still alive, I will burn paper for you.
Lu Zhao's gaze deepened, he put his finger to his lips and whistled, and soon a white horse galloped over.
He got on the horse, grabbed her, and let her lie on the horse's back.
"How dare you, please don't lie down!" She immediately protested.
Unfortunately, Lu Zhao ignored her at all. Instead, he flicked his whip and the horse galloped away quickly.
"I'm going to vomit."
The strong bones of the horse pressed against her stomach, making her whole body feel dizzy.
"Except for Gu, Feibai doesn't allow anyone else to ride it." Lu Zhao saw that she was really uncomfortable, so he explained with rare compassion.
"Is this a horse or a daddy? You are so spoiled to it!"
Chen Xueying no longer cared about the character, her stomach was churning, and she started squirting.
"It works better than dad." Lu Zhao replied seriously.
Chen Xueying: "..."
She was really confused. She couldn't explain why she was talking to a madman.
"I don't want to ride it, but I can ride you. You put me on your shoulders and carry it."
She simply broke the jar and threw it. Instead of vomiting until she was in a daze, she would rather compete to see who was crazier.
Lu Zhao tightened the reins in an instant, and the white horse stopped immediately. It was indeed a good horse for a thousand miles, and it was like a divine help.
"Why?" The man raised his eyebrows.
"Because you are the Crown Prince of Northern Qi and I am the Crown Princess, both prosper and lose. Only useless men let their wives suffer. I have heard many rumors about you, but none of them say that you are a wimp. You are Really?" Chen Xueying immediately stood up and tried to suppress her nausea.
The horse underneath her was clearly having a bad temper. It seemed to be suffering from being held up by her hands, and it kept lifting its hooves.
Before Chen Xueying could say anything to complain, her body suddenly flew into the air. When she realized what she was doing, she had been lifted off her horse and was standing on the ground.
"Wait here." He gestured to leave.
Chen Xueying curled her lips and stamped her feet at the horse.
Obviously, in the mad prince's mind, she still lost to a horse.
"I don't care about riding horses. It's so windy and sunny that my face has been dried out. But why did you come here alone? You don't even have a carriage." She said in a rather strong-willed way, obviously trying to save her respect.
"Eager to kill someone."
Chen Xueying: "..."
Besides killing, would you do anything else?
"That idiot also left a group of people in front, saying it was for support. Remember to deal with it. There must be no blood on the carriage that comes to pick me up, and all makeup and hairpins must be on. If you don't understand, just let me know. The palace maid cleans up..."
Chen Xueying kept making demands. She was obviously an extremely difficult mistress.
Lu Zhao had a headache after hearing this. He stared at her red lips that opened and closed, and couldn't help but squeeze the riding crop.
With this whip thrown away, will she be able to shut up?
Chen Xueying looked calm, but in fact she was always frightened. She saw any reaction of Lu Zhao, and her brain was running at high speed to analyze.
Now that he was looking at her so obviously, she noticed it immediately, and he must have disliked her for being noisy.
However, the persona she originally set for herself was that of an innocent and cruel seductive princess, so she must not be ruined.
A murderous madman like the Prince of Northern Qi who understands justice is not a good choice.
Because she fully understands that when justice versus a madman, the person who suffers the consequences is the sensible person, Chen Xueying is not willing to do hard work.
"Is my lipstick stained?" She immediately changed the subject and asked in a panic.
Lu Zhao, who was already filled with anger, was diverted and his thoughts of irritating others subsided.
He nodded, and Chen Xueying became even more anxious.
"Then go find someone quickly and blame that idiot!"
Lu Zhao pulled the reins and galloped away.
After the figures of the man and the horse disappeared, Chen Xueying no longer cared about maintaining her princess persona and sat down on the ground.
Her heart was beating wildly, and she was almost engulfed in extreme fear.
The performance just now was like dancing on the tip of a knife. It was also the most exciting thing she had ever experienced.
Usually she uses disguise to exchange for money, but this time she pretends to exchange for life.
Who can stand this horse riding?
After she calmed down a little, she realized that her whole body was soaked in sweat, and she felt a little bit cold when the wind blew.
*
After a cup of tea, Chen Xueying finally heard the sound of horse hooves again.
Dust and smoke billowed, revealing a rather luxurious car frame.
She couldn't help but show a satisfied look. Fortunately, she was dressed as a married princess, and her food, clothing, housing and transportation were not bad. If she had been dressed as a poor girl in ancient times, or even a maid and concubine, she would have suffered even more.
"Princess, my subordinate came late to escort you, please punish me." A guard was the first to dismount and knelt down directly on the ground.
This man was wearing armor and had an upright face. He looked like a leading general.
It's a pity that Chen Xueying's eyes were darkened. She didn't know what grade of military commander he was, let alone his last name, so she could only fool him.
"Get up. Where are the people who serve me? Are all of them dead?" She said in a dissatisfied tone.
Immediately, two palace maids came over and helped her get into the carriage.
The space inside the car is very spacious, obviously to facilitate Jinzhiyuye's long journey, and it is more like a bed car.
The two palace maids were both young and pretty in appearance, and they carefully served her grooming.
"Princess, have you met the Crown Prince of Northern Qi?" One of the palace maids in green couldn't help but ask.
"I saw it. What's wrong with you? Your eyes are red. Are you scared by him?" Chen Xueying calmly began to inquire about the information.
Unexpectedly, when she asked this question, the palace maid in green immediately cried.
"Princess, Ye Wu is gone. She was chopped down by the Crown Prince of Northern Qi, so the slave could only bury her quietly in a pit. In this wilderness, sister Ye Wu usually loves to be clean, but she doesn't even have a thin coffin. It can be used."
Chen Xueying didn't even move her brows. The mad prince was too vicious. This was expected. It seemed that a little palace maid had been killed.
"Why did he kill Ye Wu?"
There must be a reason why these two palace maids lived well and only killed Ye Wu.
"The Prince of Northern Qi wanted to break into your carriage. At that time, you had already eloped with--" She paused, not mentioning the elopement after all, before continuing: "We left. Sister Ye Wu wanted to buy you some time, so she stepped forward to stop you. One or two, and then—”
The palace maid in green couldn't continue talking, she was crying and trembling. Apparently she saw someone close to her being killed at close range, and the shock made her extremely scared.
"I specifically told him not to kill anyone again. How dare he touch anyone in this palace?" Chen Xueying said in a strong-armed tone.
Before that lunatic comes, quickly show off your authority and stabilize the morale of the army.
Another maid in pink clothes immediately explained: "Princess, Hua Pu didn't explain it clearly, let me tell you. The prince of Northern Qi came here twice, and he didn't meet you the first time. He wanted to see you directly, but Ye Wu stopped him. It probably annoyed him, so he took action. The second time, he pointed out the direction to General Liu and asked the convoy to pick you up, and did not take action again."
The palace maid in pink is obviously calmer and more mature, her speech seems very organized, and she also reveals many details.
This was convenient for Chen Xueying and allowed her to collect a lot of information.
For example, the armored general just now was named Liu, and he was still a general, and the palace maid in green who spoke before was named Hua Pu.
As for Lu Zhao, instead of following etiquette and waiting at the palace, he rushed over in advance and wanted to see her directly. It was obvious that he had received the news in advance.
In addition, before Yu Cheng died, he said that someone was waiting for them from the front, which made Chen Xueying have to think more. The princess's elopement might be a trap, or a very sinister trap.
"There seems to be a mountain spring near here. Go find General Liu and ask him to send someone to escort you to fetch some spring water." Chen Xueying ordered Hua Pu.
Hua Pu was stunned, the tears on her face were not yet dry. She was clearly talking about Ye Wu's death, so why did the princess say she wanted to drink mountain spring water.
"Hurry up and go!" The pink-clad palace maid next to her shouted coldly, waking up Hua Pu.
Hua Pu immediately left, and there were only two masters and servants left in the carriage, and they seemed a little depressed for a moment.
"Do you have anything to say to me?" Chen Xueying picked out the jewelry in the wooden box, her tone was nonchalant, as if she was just asking casually.
She didn't know the character of the original owner, but time was running out and she had to find out more information before the mad prince came back. It had to be urgent.
Even if her personality is completely opposite to that of the original owner, she is not afraid of being exposed. After all, they are all going to Northern Qi's territory. Even if these palace ladies find it strange, under the threat of death, they do not dare to make trouble.
The palace maid in pink immediately knelt down and said, "Princess, you deserve to die. I did hide something. Before leaving Dayan, the Queen had said in private that if the Prince of Northern Qi is rude and you don't want to be with him, let the two sisters of the Ye family Concubine Teng will win over the prince's heart for you. Ye Wu may have had some thoughts that he shouldn't have. When the prince of Northern Qi came to see you, she repeatedly stopped him. Finally, the prince of Northern Qi had already drawn his sword, and she actually——"
She was obviously a little embarrassed to say it, so she paused for a moment and added: "He actually hugged the Northern Qi Crown Prince's leg and tried to put his head on it, and then his head fell to the ground."
Chen Xueying paused slightly as she put on the bracelet. The lunatic didn't look like he wanted to get close to others. Ye Wu actually hugged his thigh directly. He really didn't want to live long.
