Seventy-fourth bowl of soup (6)
The memories that had been sealed up for a long time flooded in like a tide, and the prince was not afraid at the first moment, but hated. A Chou stretched out his hand and began to take off his clothes regardless of his dignity, the prince recovered from his hatred: "What are you doing?!"
"They'll find them soon." Ah Chou judged the situation calmly for the first time in her life. In fact, she was a very stupid girl, and she couldn't even turn her head. "Hiding quickly, Your Highness, I will pretend to be His Highness to lure them away."
"What nonsense!" How is she similar to him? He will never allow her to do this!
Ah Chou didn't care about him, he had already taken off his coat, then bent down, and carried him on his back again like a long time ago, the prince wanted to refuse, but was afraid that she would fall down, A Chou didn't know where the strength came from, Carried him out of the wooden house, to a patch of grass by the stream. The snow has just melted here, and the ground is still wet. She put the prince down, stretched out her hand to touch the filthy mud twice, and suddenly her eyes lit up!
The prince watched in astonishment as she lifted a hard wooden board wrapped in fur, and underneath was a soil hole the size of a person. Ah Chou turned around and pushed him down, and took a last look at him, without saying a word, just Cover the board and start spreading the mud on it again.
This was something she had thought of a long time ago. It was about the prince, and she was always afraid of harming him. Although it is hidden here, it is not 100% safe, so she didn't even tell the embolus, she dug a hole by the stream, covered the hole with feathers and furs, and covered it with a bed she found in the forest. The trees that are closest to the texture of the earth are full of silt when it snows. As long as they are covered, even if someone passes by, they will not find it.
"Your Highness, don't make a sound, wait for Ah Chou to come back to find you."
She said this as if she would definitely come back, but the prince knew it was impossible. What kind of person is the Ninth Prince? His subordinates are all ruthless. How could she, a weak girl who doesn't know martial arts, escape? If you are caught, you will find that it is not him. If you are not caught, those people will never give up. So unless she dies in front of the killers and convinces them that she is the "Prince", they won't leave.
She's not coming back, she's just lying to him.
"Let me out! Do you think I'm someone who is afraid of death?!" The prince thumped the wooden board, and there was a cry in his voice that he didn't even notice.
He is really not afraid of anything, even if his father died, was framed, had his legs broken, and was deprived of everything, he had never been afraid, all he had was hatred and resentment, but without Ah Chou, he would not dare to imagine that even if he lived How will I live the rest of my life after I am down.
Ah Chou left a gap and covered it with grass, turned around and ran away without talking.
She can't hide with His Highness, she has to make a trace of someone fleeing in a hurry, so that those people in black will chase after her, so that she can act in front of them as if she would rather die than submit, and she jumps off the cliff so that they can return to their lives .
So when A Chou fled, she deliberately left traces. On the way back at noon, she smelled a smell that did not belong to this forest. At that time, she hid in a wild ditch by the roadside, and found the group holding weapons under the cover of bushes. the men in black. They were all masked, but Ah Chou remembered the smell on them. Her extraordinary sense of smell finally came in handy. When she was hiding in the stove in the Prince's Mansion, besides the scent of the Ninth Prince, she also smelled the scent of the Ninth Prince. Body odor mixed with the smell of blood. Although the smell is light, it cannot hide from her nose.
At that time, she knew that the Ninth Prince's people were here, but she didn't dare to move rashly. She crawled out until there was no more movement around her, and then walked back to the wooden house after a long detour. I found out, fortunately, I escaped in the end.
She is useless and can't do anything for His Highness. If she can die for him, it can be regarded as fulfilling this kindness.
Anyway, a person like her lives in the world, is looked down upon while alive, and no one will be sad when she dies. If His Highness can escape this catastrophe, I only wish him the rest of his life to get his wish, clear his grievances, and become a great treasure again.
Ah Chou doesn't know martial arts, no matter how fast she runs on two legs, she can't compare to the lightness of the killers. But her advantage was that she was petite and flexible, and she was very familiar with the terrain, so the group of men in black couldn't catch her in a short time, and could only follow her trail.
When she was almost at the edge of the cliff, she could only vaguely see a dark figure behind her. Ah Chou knew that no more time should be wasted, as long as they got close, she would be able to tell from the moonlight that she was a fake, so she had to immediately—
Huh? !
Didn't fall? !
Ah Chou looked down and saw that there was an extra rope around her waist at some point. She felt a burst of despair. If she didn't die, His Highness would definitely—the next second she was picked up by the collar, spun around in the air and placed on the ground. Ah Chou was so dizzy from being turned around that she almost couldn't stand still, but the man actually gave her a hand!
If you want to kill or kill, you will do as you please, she raised her head, and opened her eyes slightly when she saw the appearance of the person coming: "...Master Shang!?" How could it be him? !
Shang Yue helped her and said, "I was ordered by His Highness to come to rescue you, but you... ran too fast."
A Chou looked at him stupidly, not understanding what was going on. Shang Yue said something offended, and picked up her collar again, and then Ah Chou felt the feeling of flying freely in the night wind, and returned to the wooden house in a daze. She smelled it immediately The pungent smell of blood, and then I saw the dirty prince sitting on the bed as before, but his face was gloomy and his air pressure was terrible.
Ah Chou happily ran over, "Your Highness! Are you alright, Your Highness?"
"I'm fine." The prince said grimly. "You have something to do."
I was afraid that it wasn't scary enough after it was over, so I emphasized it again, "Big thing."
A Chou was so frightened that his heart skipped a beat, and he immediately knelt down: "Your servant knows your mistake!"
"Oh?" The prince had a half-smile. "Where is wrong?"
"Slave..." She thought for a long time and didn't know where she was wrong, yes, where was she wrong? In the end, I had no choice but to admit my mistake indiscriminately, "Your servant is wrong everywhere, Your Highness forgive me."
The prince was so angry that she slapped his head on the bed, and Ah Chou felt that he had gone too far when he shivered, but he couldn't hide the fear in his heart if he didn't get angry. He took a deep breath and said earnestly: "Get up."
"Slaves dare not..."
He bent down and pulled her up, let her stand, and looked up at her: "Did you see the Ninth Prince?"
"Yes." Ah Chou looked around, only to find that there was no one in the room. The Lord Shangyue who brought her back just now was standing respectfully outside, and there were more than a dozen people also dressed in black. Frowning: "It's a servant... Did you read it wrong?" In fact, these men in black are Lord Shang's people
"You read that right." The prince looked at her. "There are two groups of people entering the mountain, one belongs to the Ninth Prince, and the other belongs to me."
How could he really be a prince who has no power of his own, but he was stabbed because he trusted his brother wholeheartedly, and all the capable subordinates around him were not in the capital, so he ended up like this.
"That… "
"Are you stupid?" The prince wanted her to bow her head bitterly, but Ah Chou bent down obediently, but he slapped her hard, the pain made her tears come out, and the prince rubbed her again with his fingertips. Rubbing, rubbing and saying, "You escaped the Ninth Prince's men, but you couldn't escape the business agreement. He followed you here, because he didn't know who you were, so he didn't dare to hide me after watching you hide me and run away." Save me. Ah Chou, you are so courageous, you dared to push Gu into a hole in the earth, and Gu was covered in mud and filthy."
Ah Chou was about to cry from fright, and His Highness claimed to be lonely again. Does this mean...he doesn't want her anymore? "Slave, slave..."
"Hey, you, why are you crying?" The prince was anxious, "You, if you cry again, I, just—"
so what? Ah Chou stopped crying, and his tear-filled eyes looked extraordinarily bright. Seeing her stupid look, what else could the prince say, sighed lightly, and touched her face with his finger. A Chou exclaimed in surprise and quickly covered it, "Your Highness, don't look!" Her mask fell off at some point! She is ugly, if she frightens His Highness, it will make His Highness lose his appetite.
The prince forcefully took her hand away: "I'm leaving."
Ah Chou immediately forgot to cover up, and stared at him bewilderedly.
The prince also stared at her: "I'm going to get back what belongs to me. Shangyue helped me find a miracle doctor who can heal my legs. Then I can walk like an ordinary person again."
He thought she would cry, or be sad, or afraid that he would abandon her, but Ah Chou smiled foolishly: "That's great, Your Highness is blessed, everything will be fine."
When it was coldest, he suddenly had leg pain and fever. She wiped his body over and over again, and whispered in his ear that he would get better. Until now, she still only had this sentence. The prince looked at her intently: "You have made great achievements, what do you want? Gold and silver treasures, or silk and satin?"
Ah Chou was stunned for a moment, "The servant doesn't want anything."
She was innocent and pure, and she just said seriously: "When Your Highness recovers, this slave girl will be the happiest."
The prince chuckled, how could he want to tease her, he knew that this girl was the most stubborn. Then he asked solemnly: "Then I'm leaving, what do you do?"
Only then did Ah Chou realize the problem. She really wanted to say that the servant girl followed His Highness, but reason told her not to. After His Highness returns, there will be countless people who are smarter than her, caring and capable than her to take care of her. People like her following His Highness will only bring His Highness shame. "... slave girl, slave girl, let's go home, slave girl will pray for His Highness every day, and wish His Highness a victory."
She's telling the truth, except for one thing - she has no home at all.
The prince sighed, "Then you go get a basin of water first and clean it up for me." Just now the guards wanted to serve but he refused. People run into themselves.
A Chou hurriedly ran, but Shangyue was at the door, holding a big wooden barrel that was steaming hot in his hand, smiling at her.
