The Imperial Guards behind them charged towards them, shouting loudly, "Capture the assassin, your majesty will reward you handsomely!"
Bai Lan hugged Qing Yang who was in his arms tightly, and shouted at Leng Qiyue: "Let's go!"
Leng Qiyue had always ridden on tigers, so she rarely rode horses. Great Gold was also a divine beast, so it was easy to control him when she merged with her mind. However, this horse was in a difficult position. It could only stand upright and throw her down. Fortunately, Niu Jun was too young to squash her.
Right at this moment of crisis, a roar of a tiger came over. Da Jin and Xiao Jin ran out from the crowd and knocked over a lot of the Imperial Guards, stalling them for time.
"Great Gold!" Leng Qiyue's mind shook and she shouted.
Da Jin ran over, Leng Qiyue carried Niu Jun and jumped onto her back. The five of them immediately whipped their horses and galloped away.
On the tiger's back, Leng Qiyue asked Bai Lan: "Where are we going?"
Bai Lan said: "Let's return to the Hao Yue Villa first. There are many traps there, outsiders cannot enter."
Leng Qiyue nodded her head, it was just that to return there, she would need to travel for a few days and nights, hoping that she could avoid the pursuers of the soldiers.
Bai Lan asked Mu Zixin: "How did you come?"
Mu Zixin said: "When the soldiers were going to search the palace, I was secretly told to wait for you all outside."
"My father?" Bai Lan was a little confused. Although his father understood him the best, he shouldn't have known it to this extent, right? He felt that there was something fishy about this matter.
But right now, they were on the run, so they didn't have time to think it over. In the following days, they rested for the day and travelled at night. Finally, they arrived at Hao Yue Villa five days later. Along the way, Bai Lan and Mu Zixin had stolen a few fast horses to change shifts, they would be questioned about buying horses, so they had no choice but to go to a large family to steal horses.
However, they were mostly happy, and, who was kicked out of the palace by Leng Qiyue, was also very excited.
After the few of them were settled, they went to the secret room, because Dongfang Haotian would think of where they went.
After a month, Leng Qiyue's body had fully recovered, and Qing Yang had also grown quite a bit. Bai Lan looked at her sullen expression and said: "We can't hide for our entire lives, is there any way to retaliate?"
Leng Qiyue replied: "It's not that I haven't thought about it, but I'm afraid it won't work."
"What method?" Bai Lan asked.
Leng Qiyue took a deep breath and said, "Our only choice is to surrender to the Empress Dowager."
Bai Lan shook his head. "No, the empress dowager couldn't wait to kill you.
Leng Qiyue said: "Not necessarily, I only had a man in black who came to snatch the child back then, but when I heard that it was a princess who threw the child away, I thought that Imperial Concubine Lin gave birth to a girl and she wanted to steal my child to steal the dragon and turn the phoenix. However, she did not know that I also had a daughter."
Bai Lan said disapprovingly: "So what?"
Leng Qiyue laughed strangely: "If Imperial Concubine Lin gave birth to a girl, she wouldn't dare to casually find a child to replace because she's afraid of testing their family by dripping blood. That's why she wants to steal my child. If I use the monarch as a bargaining chip to go to Her Majesty and have Her Majesty help me vent my anger, do you think she will accept it? "
Bai Lan said in a daze, "You made me confused, but I still don't understand. The empress dowager wouldn't accept your surrender for no reason, unless it brought her enormous benefits!"
Leng Qiyue's expression suddenly turned cold, and said: "Since Dongfang Haotian treats us two like this, I'm going to pull him down from the throne. "I will cooperate with the empress dowager. She will force the emperor to abdicate, make Niu Jun the new emperor, and we will be her puppets."
Bai Lan immediately retorted, "How can that be? "What if Nihility God becomes the Emperor, and she goes back on her word and kills you?"
Leng Qiyue shook her head: "No, if she wants to kill me, she will have to wait for a year or so, if not, my people won't be so calm, and at such a young age, she will definitely need me to control her. "As for the future, there will be a long time in the future, hehe …"
Bai Lan felt that Leng Qiyue had changed, and she was a little more unfamiliar. Could it be that she had been suppressed for too long, and started to resist?
But thinking about it, this condition was really attractive to the empress dowager. If he was the empress dowager, she would agree to it, but doing so would be too risky. What if the empress dowager didn't even give him a chance to speak?
Leng Qiyue knew what Bai Lan was worried about, so she said, "It's fine, the empress dowager is not an idiot. I'll stay by myself with Nihility God Stage to look for her, at that time, even if she wants to kill me, she'll have to listen to all I have to say before making a move. When I'm done, she won't be able to kill me. "
Bai Lan suddenly said: "Yue'er, you loved him so much before, why did you suddenly want to deal with him? This change is too fast, even I cannot accept it, much less the empress dowager! "
Leng Qiyue's eyes flashed with hatred, and said indifferently: "How could he not be happy as well? The day before, he had promised me that she would love me for the rest of his life, but the next day, she had gone to bed with another woman, and he had even doted on her, and she had even begun to harm us both. I have to fight back for my children. But I will ask Her Majesty to spare his life. I want him to see how the women she dotes on leave him one by one, and despise him. "
Bai Lan shuddered, he suddenly felt that this woman was too terrifying.
Leng Qiyue made up her mind and handed Qing Yang over to Leng Gang and his wife.
Mu Zixin pushed Bai Lan and said: "You don't need to worry, let her go alone?"
Bai Lan frowned: "She is a stubborn person, and is not something that you and I can stop. Since she decided to do it, I have no reason to stop her. "Because …" He did not continue.
Mu Zixin asked: "Because of what?"
Bai Lan looked up at the sky and said: "I once swore to fight for her all my life."
Mu Zixin's hand trembled, and his eyes instantly became misty. Her heart ached, it hurt so much … In her heart, she wildly shouted: "Bai Lan, do you know? I once thought that I loved the Great Villa Master of the Hao Yue Villa, but I found out that I love you. After arriving at the Hao Yue Villa, I discovered that you were the hero in my heart. However, you told me that you swore to protect another woman for your entire life, so where should I go from here? "
Bai Lan saw that Mu Zixin's eyes were misty and asked in shock: What's wrong?
Mu Zixin rubbed his eyes, then forced a smile and said: "It's fine, the sand is in my eyes."
"Does it matter? Let me see. " Bai Lan extended his hand out to help Mu Zixin inspect it.
Mu Zixin suddenly took a step back and said: "There's no need. Alright, I'll go help Aunt Leng take the child."
Bai Lan looked at Mu Zixin's back figure and sighed. How could he not know what this girl was thinking? She was afraid that if she was stuck deep enough to tell her about the oath, she would understand her own heart now. Hopefully, she would be able to walk out of her sadness and face a better future.
Leng Qiyue brought Niu Jun to An Guo to avoid the soldiers, and three days later, they finally reached the foot of the mountain.
