He has not been asleep since night.

It's not that he didn't doubt what Yue Lingxi said, but she didn't seem to take the initiative to mention the past, and she didn't even notice his abnormality, and fell asleep after eating, neither in terms of behavior nor expression, it can be seen that she doesn't know what's going on.

If this is the case, most of this case is strange, and you must let Liuyin investigate it after you go back.

Just as he was thinking, the bed curtain suddenly shook slightly, and a pair of plain white soft wattles parted from it, held it aside, and then quietly picked up the shoes beside the bed and put them on, without making any sound from beginning to end, lest it alarm him.

What did she want to do in the middle of the night?

Chu Xiang didn't make a sound, silently observing Yue Lingxi in the dark, only to see her silently bypass the coffee table, take a fire fold next to the candlestick and put it in her sleeve, and then walked to the door, halfway through, she suddenly folded back again, as if she had touched another thing in her sleeve, and then took it out and gently put it on the table.

It was his jade pendant.

Chu Xiang squinted, before she could react, her hand had already touched the doorknob, the faint candlelight in the corridor reflected on her face through the window paper, and her delicate facial features showed a little tenacity, she seemed to have already made up her mind to leave here, and at this moment she just put it into practice.

Without saying hello or bringing money, she's still really damn chic!

Just when Yue Lingxi was about to open the door, Chu Xiang, who was lying in the corner, slowly spoke: "If I were you, I would bring that jade pendant, with it, the six cities on the border of Chu State will travel unimpeded, and no matter how bad it is, it can be used as a silver exchange." ” Hearing this, Yue Lingxi froze for a moment, as if he didn't expect him to be awake, and then turned around and said lightly, "No need." ” She looked confident, as if she could blend into the city without using his identity, this realization made Chu Xiang choke again, and said after a while: "You should understand that it is very likely that you will be found out when you enter the customs during the war between Chu and Yi, and with your identity, it will be a dead end." ” This sentence is a dissuasion, but also a warning, Yue Lingxi's back suddenly felt a chill, and he couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at Chu Xiang in the dark, although he couldn't see his expression clearly, he felt inexplicably unfathomable.

"I understand."

She tried to ignore the uneasiness in her heart, and spat out a soft sentence, "That's why I can't drag you down." ” He has the grace to save her life, and now it is all up to her to fall into such a field, in this case, if she still hopes to take his east wind back to Chu State, then she doesn't know what to do, he is the prince, and the commander of the three armies, if someone finds out that he has secretly brought his criminal relatives into the customs, he knows the law and violates the law, and the consequences are unimaginable, she knows this very well.

Chu Xiang on the other end was silent.

It turned out that she had told her plan in such detail in the afternoon not to settle accounts, but to make him remember the route, and she had already decided to leave alone.

Yue Lingxi saw that he didn't speak, so she gave a salute and was about to go out, but at this time, the fire downstairs was bright, stabbing people's eyes, she couldn't help but cover it with her sleeves, and when she put it down again, Chu Xiang had already come to her side, raised her hand and poked it on the ginger window paper, and her face sank.

It's the Yi Army.

The small inn with a single courtyard has been surrounded by groups at this time, like an isolated island, with layers of iron-clad blades, oozing cold light under the light of torches, and the next moment it broke through the wooden door and poured into the courtyard, the sound of boots shattered the silence, and the dangerous breath in the dust rushed to the face, as if the enemy's sharp knife had been pressed against the chest, about to penetrate the heart.

Chu Xiang didn't say a word, he picked up Yue Lingxi and walked out, just out of the door, a cold arrow passed by, he grabbed it with his backhand and shot back like lightning, and there was a muffled sound of a heavy object falling to the ground outside the window.

There were even archers!

Yue Lingxi's heart had sunk to the bottom, but he didn't show the slightest panic, but took advantage of the gap between running to quickly observe the situation outside, and then stopped at the staircase.

Chu Xiang was dragged by her and froze, thinking that her leg was broken and she couldn't run, but as soon as she turned around, she heard her say, "You can't go downstairs." ” As soon as the words fell, there was a sharp sound in her ears, Chu Xiang turned around and pressed Yue Lingxi into the corner, she was startled for a moment, and subconsciously touched his back, afraid that he would be hit by an arrow, but he held her hand, his eyebrows and eyes were as deep as a secluded pool, and there was a calmness that she could not reach in the darkness.

"Don't tell me to jump out of the window and run away."

Yue Lingxi was suddenly shocked, almost suspecting that he had misheard.

The south side of the inn was empty, only a half-height dirt slope, and if you looked at the direction where the arrows were coming, you could see that the archers were probably all there, and the tables, chairs, and counters in the inn were all on the north side, and they had no shelter, and they would definitely be shot into a sieve when they went down to the first floor.

Now the only way is the small window at the end of the corridor, because it is narrow, so there will not be many people guarding it, he is superb in martial arts, as long as he leaves her behind, he can jump out of the encirclement directly from the second floor, this is the best policy, but he won't let her say.

He knew what she was thinking, he knew everything, but he vetoed it all in a categorical way!

"It's all because of you that you can't teach me to suffer this in vain."

After that, Chu Xiang stopped looking at her, grabbed her wrist and walked downstairs, the thin blade on his side was unsheathed, obviously to fight with the Yi army, Yue Lingxi reacted, and his right foot stuck on the pillar, stopping his steps.

"I can't go!"

Her plain face finally rose and fell, and she was as anxious as a child who couldn't control her emotions, "Jump out of the window, let's jump together, and then find a way to get out when we get to the yard!"

” Hearing this, Chu Xiang smiled slightly and said, "This is like a human saying." ” The strength of his wrist finally loosened, and he pulled her towards the end of the corridor like a leisurely stroll, and on the way to the old room, another stray arrow flew towards him, and he swung his blade like the wind to block them one by one, and the arrow was inserted into the window edge a few inches away, almost piercing a hole in him, and she could see that she was sweating like a waterfall, and she was not as calm as she had been on the battlefield.

She can die calmly, but she is afraid of pulling him on her back.

Chu Xiang glanced at her in the interval between turning around, and saw that she bent the corners of her lips with fear in her eyes, and then pressed her into the dead corner by the window, and said, "If I lift it, you will jump." ” She shook her head and reached out to push him: "You jump first." ” "Okay, I'll jump first."

Chu Xiang opened the window leaf a slit, stepped on his left leg and suddenly looked back at her, "I'm waiting for you below, do you hear clearly?"

” Yue Lingxi's heart jumped suddenly—he was threatening her!

It means that if she repents, he will always wait!

"Hear me clearly!"

She blurted out, almost breaking her voice.

Chu Xiang bowed his head, the word satisfaction was written clearly at the bottom of his eyes, and he immediately turned around and opened the window, jumping out of the small building like a swift panther, his agile figure drew an arc in the night, and landed on the lawn accurately and steadily, making a short crashing sound, and then it was overshadowed by the sound of boots coming in one after another.

"They're here!

I've already run one, go to the backyard and intercept him!

” The Xiyi soldiers shouted downstairs, and the people who hadn't come up turned directly to the backyard, the wooden building was shaken by the surging crowd, like a soil dragon rolling underground, Yue Lingxi's hand on the window edge was numb, she looked at the soldier approaching with a knife, and quickly turned her head to look downstairs, gritted her teeth slightly, and jumped straight down from the window!

The two-story building is six meters high, and it is false to say that she is not afraid, but she kept her eyes open from beginning to end, and when she was about to land, she watched that she was stopped by Chu Xiang and intercepted by her waist, rolled on the ground several times, and only stopped when her strength was exhausted.

"It's bold."

He pursed his lips slightly, and there seemed to be a pleasant color in his eyes that disappeared with the fire, and then he quickly ran to the courtyard gate with her, she was dizzy and almost couldn't tell the direction, and when she arrived at the door, the sand table that she had put together in her heart suddenly came to mind, and at this moment, her spine was so cold that she trembled.

According to this route, there is a best ambush spot ten meters out of the back door, and there are no archers to follow, which means that they have already laid an ambush there!

"Lord Wang, you can't go there-" Before he finished speaking, Chu Xiang counted the dots, and instantly swept to the middle of the empty street, and just stepped into the ambush point of the Yi army, and saw black shadows emerging from the dark corners one after another, and Yue Lingxi's whole person froze. surrounded.

She looked at Chu Xiang, her eyes were full of mist, and the hazy was full of endless remorse, but Chu Xiang unhurriedly put the dagger back into her pocket and chuckled: "Don't be afraid." ” Yue Lingxi was stunned, he didn't understand what he meant for the first time, but unexpectedly, there were black shadows all around in an instant, and they actually appeared behind the ambush people, and then the sound of sharp weapons entering the flesh came, blood flowed sideways, screams were repeated, and more than a dozen corpses fell in just a few seconds, as neat as an order.

What's going on?

Yue Lingxi was just when she was puzzled, the end of the street and alley was suddenly stained by firelight, and a group of iron horsemen rushed over, wearing thin armor and red tassels, and the vast soup was like a divine soldier descending from the sky, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

The cavalry of the State of Chu is coming!

Arriving faster than them was the Shadow Guards who eliminated the ambush, Liuyin led everyone to surround him, and then bent down and knelt in front of Chu Xiang, before he could order someone to separate Yue Lingxi, Chu Xiang glanced at it lightly, and he immediately swallowed the words back into his stomach.

"It's too late to save the driver, and I ask Your Majesty to forgive me."

"Get up."

Chu Xiang didn't mean to blame, he paused and said, "You take the shadow guard to clean up the archers in the south, and this side will be handed over to the cavalry, move quickly, and the large army of the Yi army is only afraid that it is already on the way." ” "Yes!"

Liuyin left most of the people to protect Chu Xiang, and then sent a team to the south, coming and going like the wind, and the work was gone in the blink of an eye, and then the cavalry arrived, and exchanged fire with the Xiyi soldiers who caught up.

It turned out to be the elite division of the Chu State, no wonder he was so sure.

Chu Xiang turned around and saw Yue Lingxi looking straight at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

” "When did the prince know that reinforcements were coming?"

Chu Xiang raised his eyebrows and didn't answer directly: "Didn't you see a light in the distance when you jumped out of the windowsill?"

” Yue Lingxi pondered for a moment, and said very straightforwardly: "No, I just aim in the direction where the prince is, lest I jump crookedly and break my neck." ” "It's good to be afraid of death."

Chu Xiang bent his lips and smiled, then turned over and jumped on the horse, and ordered the shadow guard to bring another horse, and then looked at Yue Lingxi silently, and there seemed to be a broken light overflowing in his starry eyes.

She was dazed, just looking up at him, motionless.

Finally, his thin lips opened slightly, and he spit out a few words in a deep voice: "Get on the horse, I'll take you back to Chu State." ” Yanmen Pass, the camp of the Chu army.

"Assign four elite cavalry from the cavalry battalion to bypass Mengcheng to find it downstream, and then let the shadow guards go down the waterway to see if they will stay along the coast, and once there is news, reply immediately, and then pass the order, the whole army will be under martial law tonight, ready to fight at any time."

"Yes, the last general obeys!"

The dim tent lamp reflected two shadows, one deep and one shallow, and the one in armor quickly retreated, and the brocade-clothed man standing next to the table rubbed his temples with his hand after he left, as if he had a headache, and when he turned around, he caught a glimpse of a person in the corner, and his eyes flickered.

How did you forget that he was still here.

Ye Yanxiu sighed lightly, as if to appease: "Liuyin, don't stay here either, the shadow guard still needs you to make arrangements, Your Majesty, I will go over and report to him in person later."

You don't have to blame yourself too much, we all know King Ning's temper, no one can stop what he decides, for now I just hope that his injury is not serious, otherwise it will ......"

"Your Majesty......

Not in the camp. ” Liuyin raised his head slowly from the shadows, his expression was blurred, his face lines were slightly stiff, there was an indescribable weirdness, and Ye Yanxiu on the other end immediately raised his sword eyebrows after hearing this, and his usually gentle voice sank a little.

"What's the matter with you?

It's just a matter of pretending to be in front of others, King Ning and I know that His Majesty is secretly sitting in the Yanzhou camp with the army, what do you mean by this?

” Liuyin fell to his knees with a bang, his face was pale, his lips trembled so much that he couldn't speak, Ye Yanxiu was suspicious in his heart, and was about to pick him up to ask what was going on, when the dark blue curtain was suddenly lifted, and a long figure swept into the tent with the night wind, although his face was sick, his momentum did not decrease at all, and he was dressed in black like a sword out of the sheath, and his sharpness was compelling.
