Chapter 285: Come With Me
"Let's have something to eat."
At this time, it was already the second night. The wind in the forest passed through the woods, making a large rustling sound. The moonlight shone through the bald parasol trees, and outside the bamboo house, the ground became more and more fragmented.
Xin Yue saw that Chu Zhiling did not reach out his hand, so he had to sit on the edge of the bed and put porridge and water into his mouth.
Xin Yue ran out last night, carrying Chu Zhiling on his back. He didn't know where to go. Suddenly he saw a horse tied next to a tree. Xin Yue carried Chu Zhiling on his back and moved it with difficulty. Xin Yue planned to get on the horse.
Go, but as soon as you get close to the horse, the horse starts to run around restlessly, looking very repulsive to strangers.
It wasn't until Xin Yue accidentally dropped a wooden sign the size of an egg that the horse began to become quiet and docile, and rubbed its head against Xin Yue's shoulder enthusiastically.
This wooden sign was given to her by the jailer named Zhang Ronghua. It seems that this horse has been trained for a long time.
Afterwards, Xin Yue and Chu Zhiling rode the horse forward. The horse did not listen to anyone's instructions and only ran slowly in the direction it determined. After a cup of tea, Xin Yue and Chu Zhiling were driven forward.
Chu Zhiling and the others arrived in front of the bamboo house. After they came down, they swung their horses' tails and ran away to an unknown destination.
There is food arranged in the bamboo house, enough for one person to eat for three days.
Last night, after Xin Yue put Chu Zhiling on the bamboo bed, she couldn't hold on anymore and fainted. She didn't wake up until the afternoon. She looked around, saw the small stove, got some herbs, and cooked something.
After working on it for a long time, time gradually passed and it was night in a blink of an eye. After Chu Zhiling finished eating the porridge mixed with herbs, his complexion improved.
There is a hot spring not far from the bamboo house. There are also several sets of clothes placed in the bamboo house. Most of them are women's clothes. There is a set of men's clothes. Xin Yue guessed that these clothes should belong to the guard Zhang Ronghua.
After Chu Zhiling washed himself in the hot spring, he slept until the evening of the third day.
At night, Xin Yue looked at Chu Zhiling's recovered face and asked, "Are you feeling better?"
"Thank you for taking this time." Chu Zhiling looked at Xin Yue's little face and said with emotion.
Xin Yue was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Then get ready to leave. This is not a place to stay for a long time."
"Okay." Chu Zhiling nodded, then raised Xin Yue's small chin, frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Why does your face look worse than mine?"
Xin Yue shook his head: "It's okay, don't worry."
Chu Zhiling leaned forward and kissed Xin Yue's face. Seeing that she didn't resist, his mood improved a lot. A faint smile appeared on his pale face, he held her hand and said, "Let's go then."
Xin Yue was dressed in plain white clothes, hesitated for a moment, and let Chu Zhiling lead her outside.
The night wind rustled and danced, the leaves made a rustling sound, and the bright moonlight illuminated the slender figures underground.
Walking out of the bamboo forest, Xin Yue stopped. Chu Zhiling turned back and frowned: "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Xin Yue shook his head and said lightly: "No."
"So?" Chu Zhiling frowned.
Xin Yue raised his head, his eyes as bright as autumn water, looking straight at the man in front of him, but his lips were slightly pursed and he didn't say a word.
Chu Zhiling realized that things might not turn out as he imagined. He tentatively put his arm around Xin Yue's shoulders, but she reflexively avoided him.
Chu Zhiling was stunned for a moment, and a cold smile appeared on his pale lips: "Why, I have nothing now, are you going to abandon me too?"
Xin Yue lowered his head and remained silent. A tear fell to the ground with a pop.
Chu Zhiling raised her head, frowned and asked, "Why are you crying?"
The thin woman bit her lip, stretched out her arms to hug Chu Zhiling's waist, and buried her face in his arms. A small sob came from Chu Zhiling's chest, and Xin Yue burst into tears in his arms.
.
"Chu Zhiling, Chu Zhiling, Chu Zhiling..."
The wind in the forest rustled, raising fine dust on the ground, which looked like fluttering gauze under the moonlight.
"Master Yan, please take a rest." The moonlight was like a wash, shining faintly on the corridor of Yan's mansion. The ground was covered with a layer of silver light, making it look particularly cold.
The man was dressed in moon-white plain clothes, and his clothes were dancing in the wind. He looked at the moon in the sky, and there was an obvious dimness in his eyes. He was speechless for a long time.
"Master Yan, you'd better go back to your room and rest. It's cold here."
"Have you found her?" the man asked calmly.
"If we find it, someone will come back and report it, so please don't worry." Cheng Yuan said in a deep voice.
At this moment, a dark figure came over from the wall, ran to Yan Zhan like flying, knelt down and said: "Master Yan, we have found the young lady and the Chu thief. They are outside Guanglan Slope.
On the path among the woods.”
Yan Zhan nodded and asked: "Xin Yue, is she injured?"
"I can't see clearly." The man in black replied truthfully, "But..."
"But what?"
"But my subordinates saw the young lady and the Chu thieves hugging each other in an inappropriate manner."
Yan Zhan didn't speak for a while, and there was no expression on his face. When the wind blew, his expression became lighter.
"Please tell me what I should do."
The expression on Yan Zhan's face was a little tired, and he said calmly: "Take some people there -"
"Yes, my subordinates will definitely capture the young lady."
"No." Yan Zhan shook his head, took out a small blue porcelain bottle from his sleeve and gave it to the kneeling man in black, and said in a deep voice, "This is the antidote I stole from the emperor. You go and give it to her."
, ask her to take it three times a day and take it on time. Of course, you can't tell her that I stole it. When she asks you how you got it, just say that I found a famous doctor to develop it. By the way, tell her that you can't go to the southern city.
Go to the gate, because the emperor has cautiously sent reinforcements to guard the south gate. Also, if she asks me what happened, just tell her that I am safe and tell her not to worry about me, do you hear me clearly?"
"Yes." The man in black replied solemnly, and after a while he asked, "Does Mr. Yan have anything else to explain?"
The wind blew, the leaves rustled, and the moonlight shone on the ground, mottled all over the ground. Yan Zhan hesitated for a moment, then smiled faintly and said, "No more, go ahead."
The black shadow flashed away, and Yan Zhan said to Cheng Yuan beside him: "Go and get ready. I want to take a bath, prepare court clothes for me."
Cheng Yuan was stunned for a moment and realized what Yan Zhan was going to do next. His brows furrowed, but he could only nod his head and said respectfully: "Yes, Mr. Yan, I will go and prepare now."
