Chapter 72 - The Place of Hiding

Although Yin Sheng was unwilling, but after hearing what Wei Yuanwei said, she could only turn around and follow the village chief.

Aside from the simple and crude house, there was the smell of cow dung spreading in the air. Maybe these villagers had heard of it all year round and did not think much of it, but Wei Yuanwei had already smelled it when she first came in.

The family then arranged for Wei Yuanwei to sleep on the same bed as the family's daughter, Xiao Qi.

The bed was simple and crude, like a wooden pallet covered with straw, sewn with old sheets, and a pillow similarly filled with straw.

Wei Yuanwei didn't know if she was imagining things, but the smell of cow dung seemed to be spreading all over her pillow, coming out from the dry straw.

"Girl, your current name is Chen Xiaolian Liu. Since the weather is still early, you should get some rest!" Madam Chen pointed to the bed with the candle that was about to burn out.

Wei Yuanwei nodded her head, Lady Chen yawned and walked out.

As soon as Lady Chen left, the room was quickly restored to darkness.

Wei Yuanwei sat on the bed, feeling tired, but Wei Yuanwei was not sleepy at all!

The smell of cow dung was indeed strong enough to mask the smell on her body.

But if Yun Xie wanted to look for her, he would find her sooner or later.

It was impossible for her to hide here for her entire life. The only way was to leave the Eastern Chu State.

But looking at the situation just now, Yun Xie seemed to have blocked all the roads, as long as people passed by, they would all check one by one.

At this time, the soldiers might be pasting her profile picture on the bulletin board in every corner. There were even some people who took her portrait and searched it from house to house.

With Yun Xie's personality, if he couldn't find his within a day, he would continue searching.

If the Eastern Chu State couldn't find it, he would probably go to other places to look for it. Yun Xie wanted to see their corpses.

Wei Yuanwei was really worried that Yun Xie would continue to look for his.

If anything happened, Yun Xie would immediately send someone over.

In the darkness, Wei Yuanwei's eyes flashed a bright light, so the only way out would be to fix her face. As long as she could change her appearance into someone else, even if she grew in front of Yun Xie, Yun Xie would still not be able to recognize her.

But how could she help others, and how could she help herself?

Was he telling her to spend three to five years to teach Yin Sheng?

She was afraid that before she could teach Yin Sheng, Yun Xie had already found them!

Wei Yuanwei sighed deeply, then closed her eyes, realizing that she could only take one step at a time.

imperial garden

Although it was the beginning of autumn and was soon going to be late autumn, the flowers in the imperial garden were still blooming with bright red flowers.

At a glance, it looked like it was standing in a sea of thousands of purple and red flowers.

As the wind blew, the air was filled with the rich and fresh fragrance of the osmanthus flowers, which seeped into one's soul.

Zhong Lixian was dressed in a yellow robe with a bright yellow embroidered Qilin cloak, standing tall and straight like a bamboo cultivator, looking like a cold and aloof person, like a plum blossom in the ocean of flowers.

Several princesses, who were around the same age as him, were hiding at the side and sneakily watching Zhong Lixian while lowering their heads from time to time in whispers.

"I've heard that the Crown Prince has never been consort to the Crown Prince. Why is that?" The emperor invited Zhong Lixian to the imperial garden to admire the chrysanthemum flowers that had just bloomed.

"The men of ancient times made a home before making a home, but I don't think so. We should make a home first!" Zhong Lixian's ice-cold eyes landed on the chrysanthemums that had just bloomed, and a trace of emotion was extinguished from the bottom of his eyes. The temperature in his eyes seemed to be even colder than the weather today.

"Hahahaha..." Now that the Western Ling State is ruled by the Emperor of the Western Ling State, becoming stronger and more prosperous day by day, and you are the crown prince, didn't you already establish this business? " The emperor chuckled.

When Yun Li and Zhong Lixian were compared, they were simply on a completely different level. Among all of his many princes, only Yun Xie could stand shoulder to shoulder with him!

Thinking about this, the emperor's heart became heavier and heavier. If he passed the throne down to the crown prince in a hundred years, and Zhong Lixian ascended to the throne of the Western Ling State, then this Eastern Chu State would probably die in less than a day.

Or perhaps, if not for Yun Xie, this Eastern Chu State would not have existed for a long time!

He wanted to pass on the position of crown prince to Yun Xie, but the crown prince was not wrong, he could not be deposed so easily!

Thinking about this, the emperor's expression became even heavier. If Yun Xie was interested in taking the position of crown prince, he might be able to come up with a reason. However, Yun Xie was not interested in the position of crown prince at all!

"The Western Ling State is getting stronger and stronger, but the Southern Mountain State has always been eyeing him covetously. There are many problems between the two countries that need to be settled, royal father is always troubled by these things and cannot sleep at all. As the crown prince, I am the one who should solve the problem for royal father!" Zhong Lixian kept on answering with one sentence, the expression on his face never changing.

At this time, Xiao Yunzi walked up to Zhong Lixian and whispered a few words into his ear. Zhong Lixian's expression changed, but he quickly recovered.

"Your majesty, I have something to take care of. I'll be taking my leave first!" Zhong Lixian bent his body slightly, and then walked out of the imperial garden.

"Are you sure you got the news?" Zhong Lixian never thought that Yun Xie would even send out his secret Red Guards to search for him.

"It's absolutely true!" Xiao Yunzi was also very anxious.

Zhong Lixian quickly walked along the road on the stone platform, and even the princess who was about to step forward to speak with him was completely ignored.

Returning back to the palace, Zhong Lixian quickly picked up his brush and wrote a letter: "Bring this letter to Princess Xi Ya, remember not to let anyone detect it!"

Xiao Yunzi kept the letter and walked out.

Zhong Lixian's cold, prideful, and Gu Qing's eyes were filled with profoundness. He had calculated every step beforehand, but there was only one less person.

"Your Highness, there is still a trace of scent in the air here. Princess should have taken the water route and landed here!" A hidden guard wearing a blue-black tight suit with a red inscription buckled around his waist kneeled on the ground as he answered.

Riding on the horse, Yun Xie was clad in white, without a speck of dust. His pitch-black eyes gazed at the rolling mountain range ahead and the scattered houses at the front, with a gaze as wide and profound as the endless sea.

Who exactly was the person who helped Wei Yuanwei in the dark? How could she so quickly pass the message to Wei Yuanwei, allowing her to change the route from water to land?

No matter who that person was, as long as he caught Wei Yuanwei, he did not believe that he would not be able to ask.

Yun Xie lowered his gaze as he looked at the words embroidered on the pink handkerchief with a red needle.

Wei Yuanwei, should This King praise you for your intelligence, or should I say that you were too careless?
