An Xin looked at An Rou's expression and couldn't help shaking her head, saying helplessly: "You and I are related by blood, and we have no grudges against each other. It was you who tried to harm me time and time again in the beginning, and now you are so aggressive, An Rou, what on earth do you want!"
Hearing this, An Rou laughed and said, "Sister, sister, your existence is a mistake... You deserve to die! You shouldn't be alive in this world!"
"Crazy woman!" Ning Yan said to An Rou with some displeasure.
"No matter what you say, it will be useless! Now, I am the winner!" An Rou retorted.
After a few seconds, An Rou regained some of her composure. She was very graceful and said softly, "Is this as if this is fate? An Xin, I feel that the meaning of my life in this world is to stop your existence. Between you and me, either you die or I live!"
After hearing An Rou's words, An Xin was startled, and then laughed provocatively: "What a coincidence, I feel the same way!"
An Rou looked at An Xin with some pity and said, "What a pity! Sister will go to hell tomorrow!"
"Just wait and see..." As soon as An Xin finished speaking, Ning Ze, wearing a dragon robe, ran to the prison.
When Ning Ze saw An Rou, he felt a little relieved. He hurriedly grabbed An Rou's hand and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, An Rou was a little surprised and asked: "Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
"There's no time to explain. General Chu and An Lang are charging in, and our people can't stop them! Follow me quickly!" Ning Ze said a few words in panic.
An Rou saw Ning Ze’s panicked look, and glanced at An Xin and Ning Yan. How could she not know what was going on!
"Don't worry, we'll see!" An Rou hurriedly said this harsh word and ran away with Ning Ze.
"Is this your back-up plan?" Seeing the situation change so dramatically, An Xin approached Ning Yan to find out the truth.
"The day we left the border, my eldest brother contacted General Chu, and the two groups of troops took a detour and surrounded the capital." Ning Yan explained the whole process.
"So, what Big Brother said about garrisoning the border was just a cover?" An Xin suddenly realized.
"Because at that time, there were some people from the prince's party in the army, so they put on some drama." Ning Yan used his inner strength to shake open the handcuffs and leg shackles, allowing Oh to use force to break An Xin's handcuffs.
"Is coming to this Heavenly Prison also part of your plan?" An Xin couldn't help but look at Ning Yan with new eyes. This Ning Yan was indeed a man of foresight.
"Yes and no." Ning Yan pulled An Xin and kicked open the prison door.
An Xin was surprised and asked: "You are not injured?"
"He is injured, but this small prison can't trap your husband!" Ning Yan said casually.
Ning Yan saw An Xin's puzzled expression, pouting at her, chuckled and touched her head, explaining: "Originally, I planned to go to the capital to explore the way first, but I didn't expect Ning Mu to be so impatient and attack at the city gate. Later, after many twists and turns, Ning Ze killed Ning Mu. According to the original time, my brother should have arrived yesterday. I guess something happened on the way."
Then Ning Yan chuckled and joked: "However, Big Brother is really unreliable. He was so late! He caused my husband and I to be locked up in the prison!"
"Don't let me talk about my brother!" He snorted and glared at Ning Yan arrogantly.
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, my lady." Ning Yan begged for mercy again and again.
On the other side, Ning Ze pulled An Rou out of the prison and ran all the way towards the city gate.
With their lives at stake, the two ran as fast as they could, even though they were out of breath. An Rou thought the Phoenix Coronet was too heavy, so she tore off a few beads, stuffed them into her belt, and then threw the Phoenix Coronet away.
Finally, the two of them ran to the city gate. Fortunately, the guards here were not very strict, so they planned to sneak out of the city while the guards were not paying attention.
Everything was planned well. At this time, An Lang brought a large group of people.
When An Lang saw An Rou and Ning Ze, he shouted, "Stop, traitor! Come and die!"
The two men were startled by the shout, stopped for a few seconds, and then continued to run away.
Seeing this, An Lang pulled up his bow and arrow in a full moon shape and shot towards Ning Ze's shoulder!
But because it hit the city gate, the arrow deviated a little and turned towards An Rou.
At the critical moment, Ning Ze blocked the arrow for An Rou.
Ning Ze groaned, and An Rou looked at him while running, worried. Ning Ze signaled that everything was fine and ran quickly.
The two were also lucky. They ran to a forest, took advantage of the terrain, and disappeared into the forest.
An Lang also chased to the forest. Seeing the dense and dark forest, he was overwhelmed. He ordered the soldiers: "The traitor Ning Ze has been shot in the heart by me. Search separately. Find him alive or dead!"
"Yes!" the soldiers replied in unison.
An Rou didn't know how long she had been running with Ning Ze. She only knew that the only way to survive was to keep running forward.
Finally, the two ran to a lake.
"No need to run. They can't catch up..." Ning Ze leaned against a big tree, spitting blood from his mouth.
“Your Majesty…” An Rou felt a rare pity when she saw Ning Ze so miserable.
Ning Ze wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said with a silly smile: "That's great, Rou'er, you didn't think of abandoning me..."
Hearing this, a trace of unnaturalness flashed across An Rou's face. She explained: "Rou'er, why would you abandon His Majesty?"
Ning Ze raised his hand and touched An Rou's face, chuckled and said, "Don't call me Your Majesty, call me Brother Ze."
Then Ning Ze frowned in pain, handed a bag he had been carrying to An Rou, and said, "There are some silver and some tokens in it. Take these things and run away quickly. You can go anywhere as long as you leave Ningguo. And I will wait for death here quietly..."
An Rou heard this, took the bag, and said softly: "Rou'er, you are willing to abandon Brother Ze..."
Ning Ze chuckled and said, "I am already dying, Rou'er, you don't have to pretend anymore..."
When An Rou heard this, a hint of darkness flashed across her eyes. For a moment, she was overwhelmed with thoughts and didn't know what to do.
Ning Ze smiled indifferently, then recalled the past, and said gently: "I still remember the first time I met you, it was in a forest. You were only twelve years old at that time. I saw you killing a little white rabbit with a small knife. At that time, I was a little surprised. How could this woman be so cruel? But at the same time, I also liked you and began to pay attention to your news..."
An Rou asked in confusion: "Didn't the first time we met be when I was lost in the pear blossom forest?"
Ning Ze smiled and explained weakly: "That was the second time we met. That time, I brought you out of the pear blossom forest. You insisted on thanking me and asked me my name. I lied to you that my last name was Xu, but I wasn't lying. My courtesy name is Qi Xu, which means praying that everything will return slowly..."
"Pray for everything and come back slowly..." An Rou murmured this sentence.
