Views:

Hearing Ning Jiuwei's words, Mei Luoxue sighed and said, "Since you have already thought about it, I have nothing to say except... I wish you happiness."

"I will." Ning Jiu smiled and nodded, not sure whether he was confirming himself or answering Mei Luoxue.

Hearing Ning Jiuwei's words, Mei Luoxue's eyes flashed with envy. She envied Ning Jiuwei for being able to find someone who she liked and who also liked her. But she, except for unrequited love, would never be like Ning in her whole life. Jiuwei must be so happy.

Seeing Mei Luoxue's lonely look, Ning Jiuwei's eyes flashed and she said, "Luoxue, actually I think you might try to leave Di Qingchen."

"Leave him? No, I have never thought about leaving him. My wish since I was a child is to marry him. I will not leave him. What's more, where can I go without him?" Meloxue shook her head hurriedly.

Seeing such a determined Mei Luoxue, Ning Jiuwei did not persuade her anymore. After all, only she knows the joys and sorrows. After thinking about it, she still said: "Luoxue, actually I still want to say something. Sometimes, What hurts you may not be the other person’s unfeelingness, but your own insistence on fantasies.”

"What hurts me is my insistence on fantasy?" Mei Luoxue frowned when she heard Ning Jiuwei's words.

Ning Jiuwei looked at Mei Luoxue and said, "Luoxue, you are a very good girl, kind and cheerful. I don't want you to live just to devote all your energy to liking someone who doesn't love you. I want you to get happiness."

"Thank you, I know your good intentions, but my happiness lies here. I love Di Qingchen very much, very much." Mei Luoxue said.

"Okay, then just pretend I didn't say anything." Ning Jiuwei finished speaking and said with a smile.

... ... ... ... ..

Night fell quickly. Ning Jiuwei held the golden token tightly in her hand. Her clothes also changed from the queen's attire to that of a palace maid. Look, no one will know you.

As early as an hour ago, Ning Jiuwei asked Bai Hua to take Ning Xiao out of the west gate first. By this time, if nothing else happened, she should have left the capital. Now she had no worries.

Along the way, Ning Jiuwei was familiar with the road and soon arrived at Donghua Gate. Looking at the door just around the corner, he took a deep breath, lowered his hair, and walked quickly over.

"Stop, which palace are you from? I don't know that tomorrow is the wedding ceremony of the emperor and the queen. Are you not allowed to leave the palace?" A guard stopped Ning Jiuwei and shouted with a frown.

Hearing the guard's voice, Ning Jiu frowned slightly. She didn't know that she couldn't leave the palace because she was getting married, but she didn't show it on her face. She took out a couple of pieces of silver from her waist and quietly stuffed it to the guard.

Then he smiled and said: "Brother, this servant is from the imperial concubine's palace. My mother-in-law's father is sick. The queen is worried and wants to ask this servant to go out and have a look. Please ask the elder brother of the guard to be accommodating."

The moment the guard got the money, his expression changed. He raised his brows and looked at Ning Jiuwei with a less scary look than before. He asked, "Do you have a pass token?"

Hearing the guard's words, Ning Jiuwei breathed a sigh of relief, then took out a golden waistband from his arms, handed it to the guard, and said, "This is my mother-in-law's token."

The guard looked at it carefully, then handed the token to Ning Jiuwei, turned sideways and said, "The token is real, get out."

"Thank you, brother guard." Ning Jiuwei put the token on her waist and walked forward with a smile.

The guard naturally ignored Ning Jiuwei, took out the silver, weighed it carefully, and nodded with satisfaction. This was eight or nine taels. Unexpectedly, the people in the imperial concubine's palace were so generous.

"What are you doing?"

Suddenly there was an angry shout from the front, which startled the guard. He almost threw the money in his hand. He raised his head and was about to get angry. When he saw the person, he immediately held back and said with a smile: "Commander, why are you here? "

"Stop talking nonsense, kid. What did you do just now? Did you let him out without permission?" Song Xiang asked coldly.

Looking at Song Xiang's look, the guard naturally knew that he couldn't hide it. He knelt down on the ground and said, "Excuse me, Commander-in-Chief. I did let her go just now, but she is from the imperial concubine's palace. If my subordinates refuse to let me go, aren’t they offending the imperial concubine?”

"You are afraid of offending the imperial concubine, but you are not afraid of offending the emperor. If something goes wrong at tomorrow's wedding ceremony, will you be responsible? The emperor has repeatedly warned that he must not be let out. You are a money man. If you die, don't hold everyone back. I'll be my supporter with you." Song Xiang really wanted to beat him to death.

Then he turned to the guard behind him and said, "Go and bring this person back to me. If anyone goes out, let them wait until tomorrow. They will be busy with things within these few hours."

As soon as Ning Jiuwei left the palace gate, he walked towards the big locust tree on the left. They had agreed that there would be a carriage waiting here. This way, they would save time and don't have to worry. get lost.

However, she had just taken two steps when someone called her from behind. Ning Jiu turned her head slightly and frowned. Why did the guard follow her? Was she exposed? But she shouldn't be so fast.

With this thought in her mind, Ning Jiuwei quickly made a choice. Using her internal strength, she found a hidden corner and hid, with her hands in a ready position, ready to take action at any time.

"Hmm~"

Ning Jiuwei felt the sudden extra breath behind her and stabbed it without thinking. However, she was stopped in the middle and her mouth was covered, which surprised her.

"Shh, don't talk, it's me."

Qin Lin whispered while looking around to prevent the guards from finding out.

Ning Jiu blinked slightly, then asked with surprise in his eyes: "Why are you here?"

"Of course I will take my wife home. If I don't kidnap you, you will become someone else's queen." Qin Lin sighed softly and said.

"I won't marry him. It was Di Qingchen who threatened me with Xiao'er." Ning Jiuwei seemed to be afraid that Qin Lin would misunderstand, so she hurriedly explained.

Ning Jiuwei looked at Qin Lin's smile and rolled her eyes, but she was indescribably happy in her heart. It turned out that Qin Lin did not break his promise and he really came to find her.

Just as the two were talking, the footsteps of the guards gradually approached, and it seemed that they were less than one meter away. This made the two of them hold their breaths in unison.

Hearing Ning Jiuwei's words, Qin Lin raised a smile on his lips, then nodded and said, "I believe that Jiuwei has always liked me."
