After the two left the village at the foot of Junshan Mountain, the road down the mountain was winding and winding, and there were many trees. Soon they got lost completely, and that was all. Later, Liu Chenyuan's foot was scratched, and Wenlan refused to let her After leaving, the two of them were a little hungry after going around for a few times.
The horse had already left with the carriage, and the two of them had almost nothing to eat except for some pocketbooks they carried with them. Wen Lan asked Liu Chenyuan to sit where she was and wait for her to find something to eat.
In the end, he probably lost his way again. Liu Chenyuan waited until the evening, but didn't see Wenlan come back.
She was thirsty and hungry, and suddenly doubted whether her behavior of rushing out of the palace was right.
Maybe she really overestimated herself.
Liu Chenyuan leaned against the tree and slept all night, hungry, thirsty and sleepy, and would be woken up by various strange sounds from time to time. After the night passed, Liu Chenyuan was exhausted, but Wenlan still didn't come back.
The worried Liu Chenyuan could only endure the pain in her feet, and tried to walk around with a limp, looking for Wenlan and food.
Wen Lan was still missing, but Liu Chenyuan was lucky, and soon found a fruit tree. Liu Chenyuan didn't know what kind of fruit it was, but she was really hungry, so she could only slowly pick up some that fell on the ground not long ago. Fruit, wiped it clean with the sleeve, and then tried to take a small bite.
Fortunately, there was nothing wrong, so she ate a few more boldly, collected some and wrapped them all in a robe, and carefully searched for the way around with the clothes.
It's a pity that after walking for a whole morning, I watched the sun slowly climb to the top of my head from the east, and I seemed to be still circling in the woods, and I couldn't get out no matter what.
Suddenly, there was a slight sound like footsteps from the southeast.
Liu Chenyuan was taken aback, and immediately walked over there, shouting, "Ask Lan? Are you asking Lan?"
There was no answer, so Liu Chenyuan could only chase after him, but when he got there, he didn't see anyone, and there was another sound in front of him.
After going back and forth like this, Liu Chenyuan chased that strange voice, and actually chased it all the way to a small path.
Although it was just a muddy trail, it was indeed a road. At least it proved that this place could lead to some village. Liu Chenyuan walked along the trail, eating a few mouthfuls of fruit from time to time, and at the end, she actually saw people.
She went round and round, and unexpectedly returned to the village at the foot of the mountain where she lived before.
Liu Chenyuan was speechless, so she had no choice but to go out first. The people in official clothes did not leave, and because Liu Chenyuan had lived there for a few days, the villagers recognized her. When they saw her, they immediately said: " Isn’t this Ms. Liu Mudan? Your little sister Wenlan came back last night and said that she got separated from you and couldn’t find you. Now she is bringing someone to look for you! Ms. Liu, take a rest, we Go and call Miss Liu Wenlan back."
Knowing that there was nothing wrong with asking Lan, Liu Chenyuan was greatly relieved. She rested for a while after eating the meal given by the villagers, and couldn't help but walked up to the leader of the searchers again, and said softly: "That... news?"
"No." The searcher shook his head and sighed.
Liu Chenyuan suddenly thought of that strange voice, and led her all the way out of the woods.
Can…
How could it be Zhao Shuxian
It has been more than half a month since he fell off the cliff. If he is still alive and still here, he should know that everyone is looking for him, so he won't disappear completely.
What's more, his expression and tone before he fell off the cliff showed that he already knew what was going on with the assassin. He should be disappointed and hated by her, so why did he deliberately lure her out of the woods
Liu Chenyuan struggled for a long time, and finally felt that she probably thought too much.
In the afternoon, Wen Lan and the group of people who went looking for her also came back, and seeing Liu Chenyuan was safe and sound, Wen Lan hugged Liu Chenyuan and cried for a while, whispering: "I'm scared to death, Miss, I'm leaving Not long after I found the trail, I turned back and got lost again. I wanted to find you, but finally walked out of the woods... "
Liu Chenyuan comforted her softly, and when she stopped crying, she rested in the village for another night. The next day, she did not leave alone with confidence as before, but asked a villager to take her with her. They went all the way out of the woods and didn't stop until Huizhou.
Huizhou is a city on the border. There are natural dangers to cross the mountains and the Minjiang River. Beyond the Minjiang River is the State of Qin. If you want to go to the State of Qin, you must go by water. There are some boats that are specially designed for this purpose. And can provide directions.
These people are very good at swimming, and they have connections on both sides, so no one can catch them.
It was really easy for two girls like Liu Chenyuan and Wenlan to get along. They found a boatman, negotiated the price, and went to Qin.
The Minjiang River has been calm for the past few days, Liu Chenyuan was sitting in the boat, thinking that when she got off the boat, she would be in Qin State again, so she couldn't help being very disturbed.
Sitting next to Liu Chenyuan, Wen Lan probably sensed Liu Chenyuan's uneasiness, and said softly, "Miss, what's the matter? Are you still suffering...Mr. Jiang?"
"Ah?" Liu Chenyuan came back to her senses and shook her head, "I haven't thought much about him for a long time. I probably won't meet him in the future, so that's fine. It's just..."
"The lady is thinking about Young Master Zhao?" Wen Lan asked with blinking eyes.
Liu Chenyuan was stunned for a moment, but finally said nothing.
Asked Lan, "Is that the second son of the Zhao family? Miss, I don't understand at all. Before I was sent away, he treated you so badly, why later..."
Liu Chenyuan said blankly: "Me too, I don't understand at all."
The words An Zhuoyan said were like knives, but she didn't feel any pain, probably because they were all things that she had no memory of, and it was impossible for her to recall them.
The two entered Lizhou of Qin State safely, probably because Lizhou is located on the border, so the customs, clothing, and language are similar to those of Huizhou. The two dressed very plainly and did not attract anyone's attention.
Liu Chenyuan plans to open a small shop in Lizhou and live in peace.
As for what to sell, she didn't think about it herself, but it didn't matter, she could always live.
The two first found a small inn that was not particularly good to live in. They were thinking of looking for a suitable house to live in, but unexpectedly, the next night, Liu Chenyuan met a man.
When she first saw him, Liu Chenyuan only felt familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen this man before. She thought it was an illusion, so she didn't care, but when the man saw her, his eyes widened. Then he stretched out his hand to grab her regardless, and dragged her into an alley.
Liu Chenyuan was puzzled, and said: "You, who are you..."
Wenlan went shopping, but she was not with her. There was no one in this alley, and she had no way to ask for help.
But the man said: "Miss Liu, we actually met each other in Qin State. This is really fate, huh?"
Liu Chenyuan looked at him inexplicably, and was surprised that this person called her Miss Liu.
Seeing Liu Chenyuan's bewildered expression, the man straightened his face immediately: "You actually forgot me?! You forgot me?!"
Liu Chenyuan could only say: "You, who are you..."
The man looked at her angrily, and finally said: "Wanzhou City, you forgot?!"
Liu Chenyuan was stunned for a while, and finally remembered that night, a man who suddenly appeared, regarded herself as Liu Lu's daughter, and said that he wanted to marry her...
"How, do you remember? Hmph, why are you here?" The man raised his eyebrows and said.
Liu Chenyuan frowned, feeling that she was not familiar with him, and she didn't want to explain to him why she was here.
"I heard that Liu Lu was demoted to some county? Why would he let his daughter come here..." The man touched his chin, and finally clapped his hands, "It doesn't matter, it's fate to meet you here, you follow me!"
What a self-talking person...
Liu Chenyuan stammered: "Why should I go with you? Let me go..."
The man didn't care about her at all, he stretched out his hand and lifted her up, and then he seemed to be very familiar with Lizhou, and led her along the winding path, even though Liu Chenyuan kept calling for help, the others only heard Its voice does not see its person.
The man took Liu Chenyuan all the way to a very remote but new-looking inn in Lizhou City. The inn was empty. Lowering her head and wiping the table, Liu Chenyuan called softly, "Help!"
The waiter in the shop still didn't respond.
Liu Chenyuan understood that this seemed to be an inn, but it was actually the man's stronghold.
But who is he
The man carried Liu Chenyuan upstairs, found a random room and threw her in, then locked the door.
The memories of fear and loathing flooded Liu Chenyuan, she put her arms around her chest, and said with a determined face: "What are you going to do... If you dare to take a step closer to me, I'll kill you!"
"Yo." The man raised his eyebrows with a half-smile, "It's quite fierce, I can't tell. Don't worry, I won't touch you now."
I won't touch her now...
That doesn't sound reassuring at all.
The man thought for a while and said, "My name is Shangguan Xin, you can call me Brother Xin."
Liu Chenyuan said: "You let me go."
"Okay, you call me Brother Xin, and I'll let you go." Shangguan Xin raised his chin.
Liu Chenyuan was taken aback for a moment, and finally said hesitantly: "I believe... big brother."
"Hahahaha." Shangguan Xin touched his chin in satisfaction, "You are too easy to deceive, aren't you?"
"You..." Liu Chenyuan's eyes widened, her face flushed red because of being so blatantly deceived.
Shangguan Xin said: "Hey - don't get excited, I can't even tease you? Let me tell you, don't be scared, cough, I am actually - the prince of Yan Kingdom."
Liu Chenyuan remained expressionless, still looking at him with guarded eyes.
Did not get the desired effect, Shangguan Xin was quite dissatisfied and said: "Why, you are not surprised at all? I am the prince of Yan Kingdom!"
Liu Chenyuan, as a childhood sweetheart with King Min, the wife of Emperor Zhao Wen, and now the wife of King Zhao's previous life, naturally would not be surprised by this prince, she still just said: "You let me go."
"No!" Shangguan Xin refused very depressed, "I can't let you go...I want to marry you!"
Liu Chenyuan's eyes widened, but Shangguan Xin said confidently: "My sister and my father are always urging me to marry the princess, but I don't have many people who are interested in it. You are not bad, although Liu To be that guy's daughter, but as a side concubine first, my sister shouldn't have any objections... "
his sister.
Liu Chenyuan only remembered at this time, his sister is Shangguan Misty Rain
And this person... is Jiang Yun's brother-in-law.
Liu Chenyuan didn't know what to say for a while, seeing that he was determined not to let her go, she could only say: "I have a cousin here, she will be very worried if I disappear, you Can you let me go first..."
Shangguan Xin said: "Your cousin? Where is it? How about I ask someone to bring her here?"
Wouldn't that hurt Wenlan even more
Liu Chenyuan could only tighten her mouth and stop talking.
Shangguan Xin chuckled a few times, and said, "Aren't you wondering how I, the prince of Yan, came to Qin?"
Liu Chenyuan shook her head.
She just wanted him to let herself go.
Shangguan Xin said: "I came with my sister and brother-in-law... Do you know who my brother-in-law is? I guess you don't. Seeing how stupid you are, you don't know anything."
Liu Chenyuan's eyes widened.
"Oh, you know?" Shangguan Xin could see the changes in her expression, "Then I can't let you go, after all, you know such an important thing."
Obviously he said it himself!
Liu Chenyuan said: "I don't have any interest in these things, no matter who comes and what they come for, I don't care. I just want to find a remote town to live well..."
"How old are you?" Shangguan Xin had a half-smile, "Why do you act like you see through the world?"
Liu Chenyuan didn't speak.
Shangguan Xin thought for a while and said, "Really, be my side concubine. In a few days, I will go back to Yan Kingdom, and I will bring you back together when the time comes, oh, and your cousin , do you think I won’t be able to find out if you don’t tell me? Hmph, this little Lizhou has long been under our control. When the time comes, I’ll take you back together, and you will be my side concubine. I won't treat her badly, and I will help her find a good family."
This person was talking too much to himself, but Liu Chenyuan was startled when he heard it.
Are you going back to Yan Country in a few days
If he really brought him back to the country of Yan, it would really be over!
And I can't help blaming myself a little bit—it's a trap for myself!
There are so many places to go in the world, why did you choose Lizhou
At this moment, footsteps suddenly came from outside, Shangguanxin's eyes lit up, and he didn't care about Liu Chenyuan - anyway, the windows in the house are locked, not to mention that the room is on the third floor, he forgives Liu Chenyuan from jumping down - Then ran outside.
Through the door, Liu Chenyuan faintly heard Shangguan Xin say excitedly: "Sister! Brother-in-law! I found Liu Lu's daughter! I can finally accept a concubine, you can stop urging me."
Then there was a woman's voice—although it was a woman's voice, it was clear and clear: "Oh, you found it, and you didn't ask if he would like it?"
"She is just the daughter of a county magistrate now, and she has lived a miserable life. She even came to Lizhou to spend the rest of her life. Why didn't she marry?" Shangguan Xin said.
Then another man's voice sounded: "Listen to you, have you brought him here?"
Liu Chenyuan froze all over.
This voice is unfamiliar, yet so familiar.
Yes... I don't know how long I haven't seen it, Jiang Yun.
