The Ninth Prince didn't wake up, so he didn't meet them.
Fortunately, Jiangnan King has been ill in bed, and the eldest son came to see him off, so the Ninth Prince's move was not rude.
After the group left slowly, Chu Tiankuo let out a sigh of relief.
After they walked far away, Chu Tiankuo entered the garden and walked in one direction. The fifth young master's eyes flickered, and he also raised his heels.
"Open the door."
This room is the main room of Chu Tiankuo and Liu Yanran.
Ever since Liu Yanran's identity was exposed, Chu Tiankuo moved out and slept in the study room. At the moment when the door was locked, he pushed open the door, and at a glance, everything was neatly placed, as if it was still the same as before.
Going around the screen, on the bed, the woman's hair spread out like a cloud. hanging over the edge of the bed.
Like a beautiful waterfall.
"Yanran..."
The door behind him opened and closed, but the fifth young master did not follow in. Chu Tiankuo also walked towards the bed, looking at the person on the bed, his eyes showed a look of struggle.
"I know you're awake. I know you're like me. You haven't slept all night. Uncle Jiu Wang has already left. Don't worry, I didn't tell him about you, and I won't do anything to you. As long as you cut off contact with those people, you can stay in the palace and by my side with peace of mind in the future. I can forget about the past, how about you?"
The person on the bed didn't even turn over, and turned a deaf ear to his affectionate words.
"Yanran..."
Chu Tiankuo took another step forward, standing condescendingly, but with a very low posture, "I went back and thought about what you said yesterday. It was all my fault before. I shouldn't ignore your feelings. I will treat you even better in the future. I just want, I just want you not to be like this."
"No, ignore me."
Taking a deep breath, Chu Tiankuo helped her explain the matter. After all, Liu Yanran had been in the Jiangnan Palace all along, and had no chance to go outside, and knew only a limited amount of information, "You know, our Jiangnan Palace is located in Jiangnan, which is considered a rich place, and has never participated in the battle for the crown prince.
What's more, the First Prince's foundation is not stable, even though he has the help of the current Empress, the Empress does not have any power in the court, and it is impossible for Prince Rui's Palace to help him explicitly, so his chances of winning are not great.
I also made mistakes in the past, I was sorry for you, let's live a good life in the future, shall we? We will stay in this Jiangnan, together"
Speaking of this, Chu Tiankuo's voice was still calm, but as if he had made up his mind, he said softly: "We have children together, don't you like children? You once said that you only want to have one son and want more daughters, so that there will be no disputes and the house will be harmonious."
"Yanran, why don't you speak? Why don't you look back at me?"
His posture was already very low, unexpectedly Liu Yanran still ignored him, he was a little angry, and stepped forward to lift the quilt, but the result was a bit more forceful, and a dummy made of dolls rolled off the bed.
He became angry instantly, turned around and shouted, "Come on."
The two guards guarding the gate came in, looked at the things Shizi was carrying, and knelt down on the spot.
"My son."
"Where is the concubine?" Chu Tiankuo couldn't believe his eyes that Liu Yanran had disappeared.
The two guards were already scared out of their wits, and hurriedly pleaded guilty, "Subordinate, this subordinate has never left the door for half a step."
"Are you trying to say that the concubine is not easy to fly? Such a big living person, under such strict protection, disappeared, and you didn't notice it at all?"
Chu Tiankuo is going crazy.
The majestic imperial concubine has disappeared from her own palace. The outside of this house is tightly guarded, how could she disappear
"Who came in yesterday?"
Before the guards could answer, Fifth Young Master stepped into the threshold.
"Brother, you don't have to ask any more. I've been here after you left."
A slap came over, the fifth young master was unprepared at all, his head was tilted from the slap, and the corners of his mouth were bright red, but he showed no sign of anger, and slowly turned his head to wipe away the blood from the corners of his mouth.
"Brother, don't worry. I'm just here to persuade my sister-in-law to live a good life with you."
"What about her?"
Chu Tiankuo pointed at the puppet in his hand with an expression of wanting to eat people, trembling with anger.
He obviously didn't trust him, but his gaze was not as sharp as before, especially when he saw the mark on the corner of Fifth Young Master's mouth, he felt a little distressed.
"You know, my sister-in-law never wants to see me. I only said a few words to her and left. They all saw it." The fifth son shook his head and sighed.
The guards nodded quickly.
"Chu Tianshu, if you played tricks this time, I will never forgive you in this life!"
After Chu Tiankuo finished speaking in a cold voice, he shook his sleeves and strode away.
The expression on Fifth Young Master's face remained unchanged, and he laughed dumbfounded after he completely left his sight.
"Brother is angry." Fifth Young Master said to himself, if not, he wouldn't call him by his full name, let alone hit him.
It seems that after all these years of company, he has finally put this woman in his heart.
Especially when he heard Chu Tiankuo's low profile words from outside, he was even more sure that his decision was not wrong.
Xiao Ting and the others did not hide their whereabouts, and marched along the road all the way.
Because it was a carriage, it didn't go fast, and three days later, he was still under the jurisdiction of the Jiangnan Mansion.
Along the way, Xiao Ting took great care of the Ninth Prince.
Ever since he took that medicated bath, the Ninth Prince's body has been sweating, alternating hot and cold.
Mr. Xu said that this was a normal phenomenon, and asked her to take care of it carefully, and then he sat back in his carriage leisurely.
Xiao Ting wanted to stay, and An Anxin let the Ninth Prince rest, but Li Mo firmly refused, saying that no matter what the Ninth Prince left behind, he had to leave the next day without delay.
"Maybe rush to the city before dark?" Xiao Ting saw that the Ninth Prince's body was trembling non-stop, but the stinky old man didn't care, so she had to ask Li Mo, if he could find an inn to stay and lie on the bed, he would be more comfortable.
Li Mo made a calculation and said, "As long as there are no accidents, it will be fine."
"Okay, then hurry up!" Xiao Ting put down the curtain and got into the carriage, her eyes full of worry.
Sitting for too long made her uncomfortable, so Xiao Ting curled up and lay next to the Ninth Prince, because the road was smooth and the bumps were not too big, so it was not bad.
"You, you are such a villain. What kind of eyes do you think my father has chosen for me to be such a sick husband? If he knows the truth in the future, will he be the first to rush up and beat you to death?"
Thinking of the cheap dad whom she hadn't seen for a long time, Xiao Ting smiled knowingly.
Xiao Zhan was a bit of a mess and didn't do his job properly, but he treated her daughter very well.
In this world, there is probably no father who is better than him.
It can be said that he is spoiled to the extreme, regardless of right or wrong.
I just think that one day, the Ninth Prince's physique will be revealed to the world, and how desperate he will be when the heaven and the earth will kill together.
He definitely wanted her to go home and leave the Ninth Prince immediately, and she definitely wouldn't listen to him.
At that time, her cheap father will be so sad.
As long as Xiao Ting thinks like this, a bitterness slowly rises in her eyes, an unspeakable meaning gushes out, tears slide down her face and cover her ears.
She touched her face and felt wet. Since when did she have such deep feelings for people in this time and space.
Even she herself does not know.
There was a sound of piercing through the air, and with a sharp whistle, a white feathered arrow shot at the first carriage in their line at an extremely fast speed.
Li Mo immediately realized that something was wrong, and flew forward to block it.
Then at this moment, a man dressed as a fisherman in plain clothes jumped out from the nearby woods, holding a big knife, slashing recklessly.
Because the incident was too sudden, he rushed directly to the carriage and attacked Li Mo.
It's a completely desperate way of fighting, his role is only to entangle Li Mo, so that he has no time to take care of this arrow.
Li Mo's heart sank, the long sword in his hand was out of its sheath, and the cold light was cold. It was already evening, the weather was dark, and they were in the dense forest. They were always vigilant, but they were still in a hurry.
Not only Li Mo was entangled, many people rushed out from the dense forest, all looking like they were stalking, all the people they brought were entangled for a while, and they couldn't get close to the carriage.
Seeing this situation, Li Mo was really anxious. When his mind was confused, accidents were more likely to happen. If he didn't pay attention, he was stabbed in the abdomen by a man with a sword. Fortunately, he dodged in time, so he didn't get seriously injured.
However, because of this, he fell off the carriage, unable to care about the arrow feather anymore.
All these things happened in an instant. On the boulevard, which had been quiet for a long time, the shouts of killing shook the sky in an instant.
The passers-by in the rear avoided it from a distance, for fear of getting into trouble.
And the arrow feather that launched the attack hit the center post of the carriage without any resistance.
With a bang, the roof was lifted, and all sides of the carriage scattered in all directions, with sawdust flying.
"My lord..."
"Princess..."
The subordinates who followed were so frightened that their souls were lost, they rushed forward desperately.
The carriage fell apart, and the horse was frightened, so it raised its hooves and galloped forward.
Li Mo was the closest, but he didn't stop the carriage.
The horse neighed and roared, and ran wildly with the other horses. Both the enemy and us were killed and injured, and they became a mess.
Regardless of their injuries, Li Mo and others got on their horses and chased after them. These people stopped chasing, and with a sharp whistle, they all flew back into the dense forest.
The fight lasted for a short time, the attackers came and left quickly, leaving only a mess in the end.
On the dilapidated carriage, there were only a few pieces of broken wooden boards, which were sporadically placed on top of them to support their bodies.
Xiao Ting protected the Ninth Prince with lingering fear, just now the arrow pierced through the entire carriage, if she and the Ninth Prince were sitting in the carriage, then at this moment, they would be just slightly warm corpses.
It can be seen how profound the skill of the person who shot the arrow is.
At this time, the horse was still galloping, she looked around, her vision gradually widened, but it was getting dark, and the things in sight became more and more blurred, and she couldn't see where she was at all.
