Leaving the palace
Mu Rao couldn't help but startled.
In her impression, Tuoba Yu had always been a boy with a weird personality and surly behavior, but today she saw embarrassment and abjection on his face.
Mu Rao thought it was funny, and the nervousness and anxiety just now disappeared, and she temporarily forgot Mu Huai's instructions to her.
She was amiable, so she asked Tuoba Yu patiently: "Where does your son want to go? If you want to go to Yujie, then go out of the palace through Xuanhuamen. If your son wants to go to Wazi near Daxiangguo Temple, then Then go out from Changning Gate."
Mu Rao's voice was very gentle, but Tuoba Yu's black eyebrows frowned.
What Changningmen, Xuanhuamen, as long as he can let him out.
Whether he was asking someone to help him, Tuoba Yu resisted his usual irritable temper, and said to Mu Rao in a calm tone: "Then trouble the princess... lead me to the Changning Gate personally."
The female envoy next to Mu Rao was displeased: "What is your status as our princess, how can you condescend to lead the way for you? If you really can't find the way, just ask the maids and eunuchs around here, don't bother our princess .”
After hearing this, Tuoba Yu's pupils narrowed slightly.
The emissary's words were always aggressive and annoying, but what she said made sense.
He already hated and hated Mu Huai, so there was no need to bother his sister.
Tuoba Yu's tone was light, and he said, "Forget it, I'm bothering you, I'll find someone to lead the way."
However, Mu Rao called Tuoba Yu again: "My lord, please stay still."
Tuoba Yu had already walked a few steps away from Mu Rao, and when she heard her call him again, he couldn't help turning his head with a puzzled face, and asked again: "Is there anything else the Princess can do?"
At this time, Xuyang was leading the way, and facing the peak sunlight, Mu Rao couldn't help squinting at her beautiful eyes.
Under the scorching sun, the boy's pupils were a faint amber color.
Mu Rao did not forget what Mu Huai told her.
After approaching Tuoba Yu, she said again in a warm voice: "The Forbidden City of Yongxi is huge, and the prince should be unfamiliar with it, so he couldn't find his way. If the prince wants to leave the palace, he must also feel bored staying in this palace I know that there is a good place in this palace, where you can enjoy the lotus, and there is also a cruise ship, which is relatively remote, and you can enjoy the cool. ?”
After hearing this, Tuoba Yu felt alert in his heart.
He looked up and down at the tall, gentle and cold girl in front of him, and felt that what Mu Rao said to her was very weird.
Girls in the Uganda country are all unrestrained and enthusiastic. If they have a good impression of a man, they will often express their admiration and invite him to a horse race.
But he has lived in Bianjing for a while, so he knows that the women here are very conservative, especially since Mu Rao is still a princess, she will never take the initiative to invite a son from a foreign country to share the same boat.
Mu Rao sensed the scrutiny and suspicion in Tuoba Yu's eyes, she moved a little closer to him, then lowered her voice, and whispered in his ear: "...the Crown Princess wants to see you."
Tuoba Yu looked at Mu Rao's delicate profile.
She was gentle and harmless, and when he saw him looking at her, she nodded at him again.
Different from Mu Huai's cool and sharp eyes, Mu Rao's eyes are very clear, not like a deceitful one.
Tuoba Yu recalled the last time, it was the letter sent by the Princess Daqi on behalf of her sister.
Then she should be someone my sister trusts.
Mu Huai was very wary of him, and naturally refused to let him get close to his sister.
My sister naturally wanted to see him, even though she didn't look at him at the banquet last time to avoid suspicion.
But Tuoba Yu figured it out later, there was nothing her sister could do.
My sister still misses him, otherwise it would be impossible for Mu Rao to pass him the letter quietly.
Thinking of meeting Rong Xi soon, Tuoba Yu felt a little excited.
There was a rare smile on his lips, and he said to Mu Rao: "Since the princess has said so, I don't want to save the princess's face, so I will go with the princess to appreciate the lotus and not leave the palace." .”
After Mu Rao listened, she was not relieved that she had achieved her goal.
Mu Huai sent someone to say that after she led Tuoba Yu to the lotus pond in the palace, as long as he saw him board the boat next to the lotus pond, he could leave the palace and return home.
Moreover, she has to keep this matter secret.
Don't tell outsiders that she has met Tuoba Yu.
Mu Huai's detailed actions did not threaten her, nor did she mention her punishment for leaking the secret, but Mu Rao knew that if she couldn't do this, Mu Huai would not let her go.
Although the two have a close blood relationship, Mu Rao knew it well, and Mu Huai just regarded her cousin as a useful pawn.
Her people are pawns, and her marriage is even more so.
If her chess piece is useless, then Mu Huai will definitely discard it.
In addition, her mother Wang's family will also be affected.
Although she is the princess of Daqi, she looks dignified, but there are too many things that she can't help herself.
Mu Rao didn't want to do such evil things for Mu Huai. She didn't know how Mu Huai would teach Tuoba Yu a lesson, but she thought, after all, Tuoba Yu was also a relative of the Ukrainian emperor, the eldest son of Luo Lu Khan, and Mu Huai took care of him. His identity will not claim his life.
Seeing that Tuoba Yu was still young, he hoped that he wouldn't be taught a bad lesson this time.
Tuoba Yu's demeanor was rarely relaxed. He was dressed in the costume of the Hu country, and he was flirtatious and handsome. Such a handsome young man naturally attracted the attention of the passing court ladies.
Rong Xi never told Mu Rao about her relationship with Tuoba Yu.
But Mu Rao already had a guess in her heart. She knew that Tuoba Yu was not Luo Lu Khan's biological son, and she also knew that although Tuoba Yu's facial features were three-dimensional and exquisite, he still had the appearance of a Central Plains native.
He and Rong Xi's eyes are so similar.
Mu Rao felt that the two were probably siblings related by blood.
Tuoba Yu and Mu Rao hadn't talked much along the way.
This Mu Rao was thinking about something on his mind, and Tuoba Yu also had his own calculations.
Tuoba Yu knew that Mu Huai had always wanted to find an opportunity to kill him, but because of his special status, he couldn't easily kill him.
He knew that his sister had that man's child, and depending on the month, she would give birth soon.
He didn't like Mu Huai, and he didn't like Mu Huai's child either.
Even if the child had blood connected to him, he didn't like it.
There is an expensive medicine in the country of Ugh. If a person drinks it, he will not eat or drink for three or four days, presenting a state of suspended animation.
He wanted to persuade Rong Xi to let her go with him and stop staying by Mu Huai's side.
But Tuoba Yu knew that Rong Xi not only had a child, but also had a very high status.
From the perspective of others, since she has become Da Qi's concubine and is pregnant with a dragon heir, her future wealth and glory will surely be endless.
Who would let this good day go by
But Tuoba Yu knew his sister better than anyone else.
Tuoba Yu still remembered that when he was young, he asked Rong Xi, what should she do if her husband wants to take concubines in the future
At that time, Rong Xi was still a spoiled lady, and she was also the daughter of Rong's parents, so she couldn't help speaking freely, so she replied: "If he really wants to take a concubine, then your sister and I will make peace with him and let him go with the concubine's room. If he dares to betray me, then I will divorce him first when I see some signs."
Grandmother was still alive at that time. After hearing this, she reprimanded Rong Xi and said, "What are you talking about? Since ancient times, any man of some status has not had three wives and four concubines. I think it's your father who spoiled you. He dares to say anything nonsense, and he is not afraid to spread it and make people laugh."
He was still Rong Hui, the concubine son of Taichang Siqing at that time, and he was foolishly happy to see his sister say this.
But his biological mother looked worried because she was Rong Bing's concubine.
At that time, Rong Xi realized that he had made a mistake in his words, so he kept silent in time, confessed his mistake to his grandmother, and confessed to his aunt.
Tuoba Yu knew very well that if her sister had a crush on Mu Huai, since she married him, she would definitely not be able to bear him having other women.
But Muhuai will be the future emperor, how could there be no other women
Tuoba Yu knew that this was a hurdle in his sister's heart.
And he wanted to use his sister's knot in his heart to punish her.
As long as my sister lets go, it will be easy to escape from Mu Huai's palm.
Time is running out, and the time limit for the second tea-horse exchange agreed by Qihu last time is approaching. The envoy of Hugu and Yan Juxu have been negotiating non-stop recently on the price comparison of tea and horses.
Although Qi State took advantage of the situation, it still failed to achieve results.
After a while, Mu Rao and Tuoba Yu finally arrived at the remote lotus pond in the Forbidden City of Yongxi. There was a pleasure boat parked in the center of the pond. Figures of women and court ladies.
There is still a small boat parked beside the lotus pond. If you want to go to the boat in the middle of the lake, you can go there by boat.
After Tuoba Yu and Mu Rao walked to the shore, Mu Rao's eyes dodged slightly, she forced herself to be calm, and asked Tuoba Yu softly: "My lord, can you row a boat?"
Tuoba Yu nodded, and was about to jump into the boat.
Mu Rao was restless, and asked again: "How is your son good at swimming? You should be more careful when sailing."
Tuoba Yu had already sat down in the boat, his strong arms were already holding an oar, and he was going to row to the cruise ship.
The female envoy next to Mu Rao is her confidant, she knows what the master is doing.
Seeing that Tuoba Yu's small boat was gradually rowing towards the direction of the cruise ship, the maid said to Mu Rao, "Princess, it's time for us to go back."
Mu Rao pursed her lips, but there was still worry in her clear eyes.
Seeing a dense purple bamboo forest growing beside the lotus pond, Mu Rao said to the female envoy, "Don't leave this place yet, you follow me and hide quietly in the bamboo forest."
The female envoy hesitated for a moment, but it was the master's order after all, so she had no choice but to follow Murao's instructions into the purple bamboo forest and hide her body.
Mu Rao watched Tuoba Yu enter the pleasure boat, but felt that there was a scuffle coming from inside as soon as he entered.
She widened her eyes suddenly.
There was only a "plop-" sound.
Tuoba Yu jumped into the lotus pond together with two tall attendants in palace attire, and a huge water circle immediately formed on the surface of the pond, causing ripples.
Both Mu Rao and the female envoy covered their lips with their hands.
Are these two servants disguised as women trying to drown Tuoba Yu
Tuoba Yu was still a young boy with a thin body, so he was no match for those two burly servants at all.
Mu Rao was so anxious that tears almost came out, she never thought that Mu Huai was so cruel, nor did she think that she would do the life-threatening impermanence and personally send Tuoba Yu to the king of Hades.
She indirectly killed someone.
Mu Rao's tears fell down quickly.
The female envoy beside her was quite calm, and she comforted her: "Princess, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time, let's go quickly."
Mu Rao nodded, and was about to turn around and leave the place when he saw that the center of the lotus pond was suddenly stained red with blood, and bubbles of blood kept gushing up.
Her heart beat faster and faster, and she felt that the blood in front of her eyes should be Tuoba Yu's blood.
Those two attendants should have stabbed him to death.
Mu Rao choked up a sob. At this moment, she froze in place, at a loss for what to do.
The female envoy urged her: "Princess, let's go."
A man's head popped out of the center of the lotus pond. He shook the water from his hair, floating on the water, and looked around fiercely.
Mu Rao took a closer look, and found that the man was Tuoba Yu.
He is not dead.
Mu Rao breathed a sigh of relief, but felt that Tuoba Yu seemed to have spotted her figure.
The gazes of the two met from afar.
Tuoba Yu's face was dark and prey, and his eyes were fierce and cunning like a wolf chasing its prey.
Mu Rao's heart skipped a beat, and then ran away with the envoy.
Tuoba Yu had already swam ashore quickly, he didn't care about the dripping water stains on his body, like a jackal chasing its prey, he quickly chased after Murao and his envoy.
After all, Mu Rao is a young lady who was pampered and brought up, how could she outrun Tuoba Yu who practiced martial arts
She wept silently while running in the dense bamboo forest.
Seeing that Tuoba Yu was about to catch up with the two of them, Mu Rao's envoy hurriedly blocked in front of the master, but Tuoba Yu lifted the skirt of her skirt and threw it aside.
Mu Rao wanted to glance at the envoy's condition from the corner of her eye, but Tuoba Yu had already approached her, and grabbed her wrist suddenly.
The smell of blood on the boy's body was extremely strong, and his aura was also extremely ferocious.
Mu Rao struggled, trying to shake off the shackles of Kai Kaiba Yu.
But she didn't struggle a few times, and Tuoba Yu threw her away abruptly.
Mu Rao staggered back a few steps, leaning her back against a purple bamboo.
Tuoba Yu had already approached her, holding a dagger in his hand, the silvery blade was still stained with blood diluted by the pool water.
Mu Rao felt that her heart was about to jump to her throat.
With a sound of "咚—", the dagger was inserted into the purple bamboo beside her ear.
Mu Rao tightly closed her eyes, but she could still feel that the tip of the dagger was only an inch away from her ear.
Just an inch away, and her ear would be gone.
Because of the horror, Mu Rao's eyes dripped with tears.
Tuoba Yu's eyes were gloomy, and he quickly pulled out the dagger by her ear from the purple bamboo.
There was a bloodthirsty smile on his lips, and he lifted Mu Rao's chin with the blood-stained blade.
Mu Rao felt her jaw freeze, and she opened her eyes trembling slightly, but she was facing Tuoba Yu's eyes full of hostility and cruelty.
She was so frightened that she went limp, only to hear Tuoba Yu sneer, and asked her in a harsh voice, "You want to kill me?"
