"May I call you Jojo? That sounds more intimate."
Chu Qiao's face was cold, but her patience became less and less as time went by. She frowned and said, "If it was because of Chu Qiao's offense to His Highness that day that His Highness made such a move today, then Chu Qiao is willing to accept the punishment, and His Highness please express it."
Li Ce turned a deaf ear and still smiled and said, "Who else is there in your family? Are your parents still there?"
"Your Highness, you may as well just tell me what you want to do. Chu Qiao, a grassroots person, cannot bear His Highness's love and care."
"What month is your birthday? How old are you this year? I was born in July, twenty-one this year."
"Your Highness, what exactly do you want to do? Can we talk normally?"
"Where is your ancestral home? You look so beautiful, you don't look like a northerner, but like our southern girl, did your father tell you?"
"His Royal Highness!"
"It looks so good when I'm angry, I'm so discerning!"
…
Half an hour later, Chu Qiao tried to communicate with Li Ce again, she calmed down her anger very seriously, and said sincerely: "Your Highness, what do you like about me?"
Li Ce smiled softly, "I like everything about you."
Chu Qiao knew that she had made a slip of the tongue and shook her head, "In other words, what do you want to use me for? There are many ways you can do it if you don't want to marry Daxia's princess. You can't use me as a shield. I'm just a small commoner and have no value."
"Qiao Qiao," Li Ce frowned, and said with a confused expression, "I fell in love with you at first sight, but you misunderstood me like this, I will be very sad."
No wonder you will be very sad! Chu Qiao suddenly discovered that talking to a normal person is actually a very happy thing. Even if that normal person is your enemy, it's not like the situation in front of you. There is no distinction between the enemy and the enemy, and you can't even figure out the attitude of the other party. She let out a breath slowly, gave up the extravagant hope of knowing something from Li Ce, and sat quietly by the carriage, unwilling to even open her eyes again.
"Qiao Qiao," Li Ce leaned forward with a smile, his voice was evil, his tone was frivolous, with an unspeakable hoarseness and charm, "I have cold hands."
There was silence for a while, and then there was a bang, and Prince Li Ce flew out of the carriage like a ball, and fell headfirst to the ground from the heads of many Bian Tang envoys and Da Xia guards.
"who?"
"Ah! Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
"There are assassins! Protect Your Highness!"
The chaotic whistling sound suddenly sounded, Zhao Qi raised his eyebrows, and pulled out the long sword from his waist. The nerves that had been tense for the past few days because of Wei Jing's disappearance suddenly became tense, and he called the attendants beside him to surround him. A ridiculously large carriage.
"A misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"
Li Ce stood up in embarrassment while saying "Ouch", staggered and ran towards the carriage, stopped in front of the people who were at war, and said quickly: "I was not careful, I didn't sit still, it's all right."
Everyone frowned and looked at each other, looking at the motionless carriage, not knowing what to say.
Didn't sit still? This carriage runs slower than people walking, why would anyone not sit still and fly out of it
"It's okay, everyone, don't be nervous." Li Ce lifted the hem of his clothes, climbed into the carriage with a smile, and waved at everyone.
Zhao Qi was already on the verge of collapse at this moment. He was exhausted by the windy and rainy prince, but the person who went back to report the letter hadn't heard back. He was about to reach the city gate. Could it be that the future emperor of Bian Tang Marry a Yanbei slave
As soon as the curtain was lowered, Li Ce grinned and rubbed his arms, looked sadly at Chu Qiao who was sitting coldly by the side, and said with his lips curled up, "Qiao Qiao is too ruthless, it's a shame to treat your future husband-in-law like this. will be punished."
Chu Qiao half-closed her eyes, gave him a cold look, and said in a deep voice, "There is a difference between men and women, Your Highness, please respect yourself."
"Qiao Qiao, help me to apply the medicine." Li Ce held a white jade porcelain bottle, moved over pitifully, and stretched out his bloodshot arm.
Chu Qiao raised her eyebrows, but didn't move.
"I'm doing it for your own good." Li Ce said, "If someone sees me and gets hurt again, you will definitely be implicated again."
Chu Qiao sighed, snatched the porcelain bottle, roughly pulled his arm, and began to apply the medicine for him.
Li Ce immediately screamed, Zhao Qi and others walked outside, listening to the sound of ghosts crying and howling wolves inside, their brows became more and more wrinkled, and their faces were livid.
The sky is blue and the clouds are white, the air is fresh, the sun is warm in the afternoon, and the birds are circling freely in the sky. On both sides of the post road at the official office, there were many civilians kneeling who had no time to hide. They lowered their heads as they should, but secretly raised the corners of their eyes when they heard the voice from above. There is a piece of green grass on the huge pasture, lush green, very beautiful. Li Ce changed into an exaggerated red robe with large peonies embroidered on it. It was very tacky, but it felt elegant when he wore it.
He rode a very flamboyant white steed with a purple rose and silk flower tied around its neck, like a bridegroom marrying a wife, holding the rein in one hand and a long sword in the other. Qi said: "Go back, go back, and tell His Majesty Emperor Xia that I am very grateful for his hospitality. I am leaving now, and we will meet again by fate."
Zhao Qi was speechless, but he didn't dare to take a step forward. Just now he just said one more word to let him stay one more night, the short-circuited prince raised his sword and slashed his head. Maybe now Li Ce's head has been opened. The pain in Zhao Qi's heart can no longer be expressed in words. He looked sadly at Li Ce's back that was getting further and further away, and felt that God was really unfair to him.
Like Zhao Qi, Chu Qiao also feels very entangled now. For this His Royal Highness who does not play cards according to common sense, she thinks the most correct solution is to break his neck and shut his noisy mouth completely.
But at this moment, such a method is obviously not feasible, and the development of the situation is too bizarre and out of her control. Now he could only wait quietly, after all, she didn't believe that Emperor Xia would let Li Ce take a Yanbei slave back to be the crown princess after killing her.
"Jojo, are you happy? We're out of town."
Li Ce looked at her with a smile, with a little charm in his eyes, "Come with me, in the future you will have inexhaustible glory and wealth, endless silk and satin, and I will give you whatever Yan Xun can give you." Give it to you, I can give you what he can't give you. You don't have to bow your knees, you don't have to rely on others, you see, how good it is."
"You should know you can't get away."
Li Ce smiled brightly, "How do you know I can't leave?"
Chu Qiao was noncommittal, and sneered, "If you leave like this, then you don't have to come here." Her eyes suddenly became sharp, and she stared coldly at Li Ce's handsome face, "What the hell are you doing?" What is the conspiracy?"
Li Ce leaned forward, with the tip of his nose almost touching her face, "My plot is to take you back and make Yan Xun, Zhao Qi, Zhao Shisan and the others mad."
Chu Qiao suddenly felt powerless, looking at Li Ce's face that looked like a peach blossom, she just felt that saying anything was superfluous. She shook her head, and said in a deep voice: "Li Ce, if you are really pretending to disrupt the situation secretly with ulterior motives, then you are really terrible."
Li Ce smiled triumphantly, "This prince came to Zhenhuang with ulterior motives to disrupt the situation secretly, but my style is true. No matter what the situation, this prince is always unrestrained, chic and suave."
Chu Qiao sighed helplessly, at this moment, a strong uneasiness surged in her heart!
In an instant, the woman jumped up from the carriage, threw herself on Li Ce, and knocked him off!
"Jojo! Why are you so rude when throwing yourself into your arms? You..."
"Shut up! Untie the rope!"
"No, then you should run."
The woman shouted angrily, and almost at the same time, a dense rain of sharp arrows came like locusts. Countless enemies suddenly poured out from the high slope in the distance, everyone held bows and crossbows, and the sound of bowstrings kept ringing. More than a dozen guards in front immediately fell off their horses like a sieve, and the ownerless horses wailed in unison. Chu Qiao pulled Li Ce and rolled sideways, avoiding the huge body of the white horse. Countless bows and arrows were densely inserted into the white horse's body, and the arrows flashed with a faint blue light. Poisoned.
"Are you playing tricks?"
Chu Qiao yelled, Li Ce's eyes were also blind, and he shouted in puzzlement: "I find someone to ambush me?"
"Damn it!"
At the same time, killing sounds everywhere! Countless enemies popped out of nowhere on the high grassland, everyone was holding thick-backed sabers and dressed in civilian clothes, and charged up while shouting to kill.
"Protect Your Highness!" Li Ce's guard commander Tie You yelled, and rushed forward with several personal guards. Chu Qiao turned her hands flexibly, broke free from the rope, swung her sword to block a few arrows, and seeing Li Ce standing behind her, looking at a loss, she immediately became furious, and shouted sharply: "You don't know martial arts? "
Li Ce nodded hastily, "Qiao Qiao, you have to protect me."
"Idiot!" The girl became furious and kicked Li Ce's knee. The man fell short with an "ouch" and just dodged a flying arrow.
"Don't panic, meet the enemy in the front, cover with arrows in the middle, draw the horses in the rear, and be ready to break through at any time!" Chu Qiao grabbed a bow and crossbow, and fought back fiercely while running. Every time an arrow is fired, there is a shrill scream.
There were shouts of killing in all directions, the arrows were empty, and the shouts shook the sky. The opponent's troops rushed up like a tide, there were thousands of people. At this time, there were only less than a hundred guards around Li Ce, and everyone was injured, so they couldn't fight in a hurry. Chu Qiao dragged Li Ce and ran staggeringly. Seeing the dense forest not far away, she was overjoyed and shouted loudly, "Back into the forest!"
The sharp blade came towards him, Li Ce yelled in panic, Chu Qiao flew forward at a high speed, and kicked the enemy's lower body heavily, and the screams like killing a pig rang out immediately. However, before the man's voice elongated, Chu Qiao swung her sword and chopped off half of the man's head!
Blood sprayed all over Li Ce's body in an instant. Li Ce was startled, and even took out a brocade handkerchief from his lapel, and wiped it vigorously.
"Idiot! What time is it?" Chu Qiao grabbed Li Ce's hand and rushed into the forest. The rain of arrows behind her was immediately blocked by the dense forest. Only a few arrows would rush in, but their strength was not as strong as before. .
