    ?

    The next day, Xiao Jing didn't mention what happened last night, and Chu Yao acted as if nothing happened.

    As for who he saw in her eyes, it was not her concern. What she was thinking about now was how to leave. Xiao Jing had already decided to leave for Xianyang, the capital of the kingdom, today.

    After tidying up the luggage, the inn should be evacuated, leaving a few maids to take care of the empty courtyard.

    "Can you ride a horse?" Xiao Jing asked her sideways.

    ? Chuyao is no better than ordinary ladies in boudoirs. Although she doesn't know martial arts, she can still ride a horse. I remember it was taught by Jiang Qianyang at that time.  Jiang Qianyang didn't know what Xiao Jing sent him to do, since he met him that night, he never appeared again.

    Chu Yao shook his head.

    "Then take the carriage and prepare the carriage." Xiao Jing instructed the lieutenant general.

    Chuyao's original intention was that Xiao Jing would ride a horse, and she and the maids and servants would ride in the following carriage, so that they could find an opportunity to escape. Unexpectedly, Xiao Jing would abandon the horse and let her ride in his carriage together.  Under his nose, there is no chance. It will be difficult to leave Tongzhou and come back.

    The more I thought about it, the more my heart sank, and I unconsciously frowned and lowered my eyes.

    The carriage gradually drove out of Tongzhou, the sun was setting, and it took half a day to arrive in Lincheng Yezhou.

    Yezhou is also adjacent to Tongzhou, and there is no official inn. Xiao actually didn't want the officials to disturb him, so he simply lived in the inn.

    After Chuyao waited on Xiao Jing to eat and take a bath, he exited the door and went downstairs.

    Xiao Jing accompanied more than 50 maids, servants and guards, and the entire inn was booked. When she went downstairs, the guards were eating.

    This is no better than the soldiers sent by Li Mao guarding the Tongzhou Posthouse. Now should be the best time.

    Chuyao walked to the backyard, there were two guards guarding it, the kitchen was next to it, and inside was Xiao Jing's own cook, she walked over and said with a smile: "Let me help you."

    Of course the cook was happy, and asked Chuyao to help. Chuyao looked at the ingredients on the cutting board, and began to care about it.

    "When I came in just now, the guards in the backyard were yelling that I was hungry, why don't I bring them over first." Chu Yao made two small dishes, put them on the tray, and said to the cook.

    After finishing speaking, he stepped out of the kitchen with his things.

    Under such circumstances, it is naturally impossible for her to have any perspiration or poison. The only way she can think of is to stir-fry two kinds of vegetables that are incompatible with each other to make people food poisoned.  people doubt.

    It was ten minutes in the middle of the night, there was silence everywhere, and the sound of insects gradually sounded.

    Chuyao calculated the time and walked out of the room. The two guards in the backyard were leaning against the door and fell asleep. This was different from the poisoning situation she knew, and she couldn't control it. Now is the opportunity, so why not escape?  Thinking about it, Xiao Jing would never run away for a maid, so he might as well catch up.

    Chu Yao pushed the door open and went out, found a fast horse from the stable, turned on it, whipped and galloped away.

    When she ran out of Yezhou, she didn't even feel it, which made her escape. She didn't dare to slack off and rest, so she whipped the horse quickly and galloped all the way.

    When jumping over the rapids and running towards the woods, suddenly, several men in black jumped out of the woods, pointing at weapons.  Chuyao secretly felt that something was wrong. It was so late, it couldn't be a bandit who robbed.

    "I don't see you every day like three autumns. Is Miss Qingzi still okay?" A familiar voice sounded from the man in black, and slowly walked out of the crowd.

    He was dressed in a dark blue dress, and his black hair was also tied up with a blue ribbon. The moonlight made his brows and eyes more profound.

    It's Duan Hekang.

    Chuyao frowned, and flattered the whip hard, causing the horse to neigh and gallop wildly.

    Falling into the hands of Duan Hekang is not as simple as going to Xiao Jing. Duan Hekang is obviously looking for revenge for what happened last night.

    The crowd was forced to disperse by the startled horse, and the horse galloped out of the woods. Just when Chuyao thought it was going to be safe, his back fell in vain, and a funny laugh sounded in his ears: "Miss Qingzi is not only good at piano, but also a horse."  She rode well, comparable to my Mongolian general.¡±

    Duan Hekang put his arms around Chuyao's waist, put his hands on the reins, stopped the horse, and dismounted her.

    "Major General, shouldn't you leave the territory of Yan Kingdom this morning, and how to get there and back again, so that you are not afraid of being found out by the prince, and you will be punished for your misdeeds?" Chu Yao calmed down and said in a cold voice.

    Envoys of the enemy country are not allowed to stay within the country's borders without permission. As long as they are discovered, they will be punished and beheaded. Even the enemy country can't say anything.

    After the banquet yesterday, Duan Hekang was supposed to leave Tongzhou in the morning and go back to Mongolia, but he did not expect to stay here.

    "Ms. Qingzi's piano sound, every time I think about it, the general will be haunted by it. If I think about it, I might as well invite the girl to go to Mongolia to play the piano day and night, so as to comfort my lovesickness."??.  "Duan Hekang's lips curled up, jokingly.

    Having been humiliated yesterday, it seems that Duan Hekang will never let his hands down.

    Chuyao was about to say something, but the man in black came forward and reported: "Young General, someone is coming this way."

    Under the moonlight, Duan Hekang lowered his gaze, put his arms around Chuyao, got on his horse, and said, "Let's go!"

    Duan Hekang hugged Chuyao tightly, and drove out quickly, but not to the direction of Tongzhou, but to the blank.  Bizhong is the road that Chuyao and the others traveled from Yongzhou to Tongzhou at that time. Going this way is to go deep into the southeast of Yan Kingdom.

    Galloping all night, throwing off the soldiers and horses behind, he entered the city in the middle of the blank.

    Duan Hekang changed his horses and clothes, dressed up as a business traveler with his subordinates, and lived in the largest restaurant in the building.  He must want the most conspicuous place, the safest place.

    Chuyao was fed cartilage powder, her face was smeared with erythema, and she was covered with tulle. Duan Hekang carried her into the inn, ordered a few small dishes, and walked to the guest room.

    "Lady, come and have a sip of tea first." Duan Hekang held the cup to her lips and whispered softly.

    She was disguised as Duan Hekang's sick lady, and lived in a room as husband and wife.

    "The major general should let me go. You must have something to do when you go to the southeast. Wouldn't it be a burden to take me with you?" Chu Yao moved his lips, trying to persuade Duan Hekang, "I wanted to leave King Ning, and I wouldn't."  If you go back, you can rest assured that I will not tell him about you."

    "I know." Duan Hekang didn't force it, and moved the cup to his lips leisurely, "I gave the medicine to the two guards in the Yezhou Inn, otherwise you thought it would be so easy to leave Xiao Jing."

    Chu Yao was slightly startled, so in the forest, did he wait for her deliberately?

    "Since the major general knows that I have no influence on your affairs, he should let me go."

    Duan Hekang closed his eyes, took a sip of the tea, opened his eyes slightly to look at the ups and downs of the tea stems in the white porcelain cup, and smiled with his lips: "It's a long road, and if I don't have Miss Qingzi to accompany me, wouldn't it be boring."

    It seems that he doesn't intend to let her go, but what's the use of holding her, Chuyao said coldly: "Since the major general insists on Qingzi's company, then Qingzi will be disrespectful, but the major general must be careful."

    "What are you careful about?" Duan Hekang raised his eyes to look at her with interest.

    "Be careful of Prince Ning's pursuit." Chu Yao's eyes were cold.

    Duan Hekang raised his eyebrows thickly, "I don't think King Ning will mobilize people for the sake of a girl."

    Chuyao smiled mockingly, looked at Duan Hekang with black eyes, and said in a low voice, "The major general doesn't think that the person who can play He Yan's song impromptu is just a maid?"

    When she got to this point, she could only cheat. As for how much Duan Hekang could trust, she could only resign herself to fate.

    "Oh?" Duan Hekang put down the white porcelain cup in his hand, looked at her with interest, and said, "Don't you want to say that she is the concubine of King Ning?"

    Chuyao's eyes were very bright, and he was not in a hurry: "What does the young general think?"

    "A concubine Ji disappeared, so how could King Ning conduct a public search?" Duan Hekang took a mouthful of food and put it in his mouth, calmly: "Besides, Miss Qingzi didn't forget, you escaped by yourself  Well, how could we be found on this group of us?"

    "Concubine Ji?" Chu Yao sneered, "Major General thinks that Yan and Mongolia are at war, and King Ning is sitting in Tongzhou, so he will have the leisure to bring a concubine here?"

    Even though she was wearing a bland mask, she couldn't hide her bright eyes, and her confident smile added eye-catching colors to her ordinary face.

    Duan Hekang's face changed slightly, "You want to say that you are the woman King Ning loves?"

    Chu Yao squinted at him, "What do you think, Major General?" (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
