Du Wanchun lit the lamp and replied: "This is my Zhou family's own school. There are two gentlemen who live here on weekdays. I'm afraid they have something to do today and will have to come back later."
She said, lighting the remaining lamps, "If you two don't mind, can you stay here first?"
Du Wanchun didn't specifically ask about the woman's identity, nor why they appeared here.
Vice General Song didn't say anything specifically. He thought that after spending one night here, he would take the princess into the palace so as not to harm the Zhou family. ?.?????.???
Du Wanchun placed Vice General Song in Mr. Yuan's house and let him spend the night with Hai Qingyang.
Then the princess was arranged in another guest room.
The princess disguised herself as a man, thinking that Du Wanchun would not notice, so she offered, "There is no need to prepare a special guest room, I will live with Brother Song."
Vice General Song hurriedly said in a panic: "How can that be done? You are..."
The princess immediately winked at him.
Vice General Song choked the words in his throat and swallowed them.
Du Wanchun then smiled and said: "In that case, I will force you two to share a room."
Vice General Song opened his eyes wide and refused quickly: "Shopkeeper Du, I still think it's better for each of us to sleep in a room."
Before he finished speaking, the princess grabbed him and pulled him into the room that Du Wanchun had packed.
"Shopkeeper Du..." Vice General Song still wanted to say.
The princess hooked his neck and pulled him back into the house, closed the door and whispered, "If you continue talking, Shopkeeper Du will definitely find out that I am a woman."
Vice General Song whispered back: "Don't be too nervous. Even if Shopkeeper Du knows that you are a woman, it will be fine. She will not complain."
The princess didn't believe it, so she turned around and walked in, "Her husband is the Minister of the Ministry of Justice. How can she help us hide such a big thing?"
Vice General Song said with a serious face: "Of course, General Zhou has his reasons for asking me to come and take refuge with Shopkeeper Du."
The princess smiled and said, "I hope so, otherwise someone will come to get us at dawn tomorrow."
Vice General Song bent down, sat down with his back to her, and said, "Princess, you will sleep on the bed tonight, and I will guard you at the door."
The princess couldn't help but laugh when she looked at his appearance, "Okay, just guard the door, I'll go to bed first."
She lay down on the bed unceremoniously, turning over and facing away from him.
The two of them sat back to back like this all night, one really sat there all night, and the other was lying down but didn't sleep all night.
Du Wanchun brought them breakfast early.
While setting out breakfast, she said: "I heard from my husband that the emperor is looking for the princess everywhere and has terminated her engagement with the third prince. Vice General Song, can you go back?"
Vice General Song was stunned and looked up at Du Wanchun.
Du Wanchun smiled and said: "Third brother wrote me a letter earlier, saying that you were escorting the princess into the city, so I naturally guessed that she was the princess."
The princess was also shocked and couldn't eat the bun she originally held in her hand.
Du Wanchun said slowly: "Don't worry, you two. I won't reveal your whereabouts, but it's not an option if you continue like this. The princess has a special status, and the emperor can't do anything to her. But Vice General Song, you are different, you are Xuan Yue If the emperor knew that you abducted the princess, he would probably kill you."
Vice General Song swallowed the buns in his mouth and his hands trembled slightly.
He is still young now, so of course he is afraid of death.
The princess looked calm and put the bun down, "Shopkeeper Du, if you don't blame him at this time, it's all my fault."
Du Wanchun turned his head and looked at her, "The emperor doesn't care who of you two is the mastermind. If he can't kill you, he will naturally find someone to vent his anger on."
The princess turned her head to look at Vice General Song, worry and regret also appeared in her eyes.
Du Wanchun continued: "Since the emperor has changed his mind, the princess does not necessarily have to escape."
She said in a deliberately slow tone, "Didn't the Emperor ask you to choose a husband? You can choose the person of your choice."
The princess understood what she meant. She knew that if she continued to be so willful, Vice General Song would be killed.
"Can we go back now?" she asked Du Wanchun.
Du Wanchun replied: "Of course I can go back. Vice General Song will just take you back to the palace in the name of finding you."
The princess suddenly realized.
She and Vice General Song fell silent again.
Du Wanchun stood up and left, leaving the two of them to discuss.
