Some of the guards began to hesitate. They had never fought against such a strong opponent before, and this person was the legendary War God Yulixiao who was said to be strong but not weak.

At this moment, he was covered in blood, holding a sword in one hand, and his shield was thrown far away. His long robe was lifted high by the mountain wind, while his hair was stuck to his shoulders by the blood, and a pair of deep eyes burned with a terrifying light. Even though his gaze hadn't stopped on anyone's face, it made people feel like he was looking at them, just a glance, and he would send them to hell in the Yellow Springs.

Finally, someone threw away the weapon in his hand, turned around and ran. Within a few steps, a cold arrow shot out from the shadows and pierced through his chest, killing him.

So there was a circle of archers outside!

From the looks of it, if Yulixiao wanted to charge out tonight, even if he did not die, he would have to shed a few layers of skin.

While the two sides were in a stalemate, waiting for the opportunity to pierce the other party's chest with their arrows, the archers ambushing them were suddenly thrown out one by one, and the elite soldiers appeared in the trees.

"Your Highness, this humble servant came late, please forgive me."

Yulixiao nodded, he looked at the people around him and said: "Search the mountains, capture Yu Tianqi alive."

"Yes." Everyone immediately dispersed and began searching for something in the forest.

Just as Yulixiao was about to get on the horse, he saw a slim figure coming over from the forest. He frowned and stopped moving, staring at the figure. As they got closer, the moonlight landed on her face. Only then did Yulixiao clearly see that this was Chen Yao, and not the Yu Yan he was thinking about …

"Your Highness!"

"Why are you here?" Yulixiao frowned, looking down at her.

"I begged Shen Si to bring me here." Chen Yao's face was filled with tears as she tiptoed and used both hands to hold his face. Looking left and right, she heaved a sigh of relief and said gently: "It's good that you're fine.

"Let's go." Yulixiao carried her up the horse, and rushed into the forest.

Chen Yao slightly tilted her face, a cold light rose from the corner of her eyes. She then leaned into his embrace, and gently hugged one of his arms with her hands.

They sped down the mountain and returned to the city.

After running for an entire night, Yulixiao had not spoken a single word as he entered Chi Cheng Palace.

When Ye Mingyue heard this, she came over and got someone to carry him into the bathtub. She helped him wash the water in the bathtub and took off her brocade clothes.

"Your Highness …" To be injured for her, where is she? " Ye Mingyue bit her lips as tears streamed down her face due to the heartache.

Yulixiao swept her a glance, and said lightly: "You guys go out."

Ye Mingyue was about to speak, but Chen Yao tugged at her, and said softly, "Little sister, let's go out first and let the Duke rest for a while."

Ye Mingyue unwillingly followed her out, and stood guard outside the door together with Chen Yao. From time to time, she would turn her head to look inside the house.

Chen Yao sat on the stone steps at the side and took out her handkerchief to wipe the sweat off her face. When she looked up at the moon, he could not help but smile.

"What are you laughing at, sister?" Ye Mingyue caught her smiling expression and asked curiously.

"Your Royal Highness has returned safely. I'm very happy." Chen Yao lowered her head, her hand on his chest as she softly spoke.

"That's true. This trip lasts for two days. I'm so worried." Ye Mingyue also sat down and gently wiped the corner of her eyes with the silk handkerchief.

Chen Yao laughed, and did not speak further.

At this moment, Chen Yao's maid hurried over and whispered a few words into her ear. Chen Yao's expression changed slightly, and she immediately stood up and whispered to Ye Mingyue: "I'm going to wash, change my clothes, you take good care of Your Highness."

"It's been hard on you, sister. Go ahead." Ye Mingyue laughed and nodded lightly.

Chen Yao held onto the maid's hand and quickly walked out of the courtyard. The long ride on the horse made her gait seem awkward and awkward.

Ye Mingyue tilted her head and stared at her back until she was far away. Only then did she wave her hand, calling his maid over, and lean close to her ear while whispering, "Go, go see what she has done."

The servant quickly nodded and followed him out. After a while, she came out with a flustered look and whispered, "Yu Yan is back! Ah Lang was carrying him back, and he was blocked outside by Chen Yao. "

Ye Mingyue bit her lips, suddenly stood up and said loudly: "What? Ah Lang brought Yu Yan back? Would she dare to come back? "

The servant looked at her in shock, only to see Ye Mingyue carrying her skirt and rushing out, hurrying to the ground, as if she was really going to rush in to see Yu Yan.

Inside the house, Yulixiao suddenly opened his eyes and turned to look out the door. His face was filled with killing intent, his thin lips were pursed tightly, and his black pupils constricted slightly, before he closed them and continued to soak in the water. However, the palms on the sides of the bathtub suddenly started to apply force, causing the veins on the back of his hands to bulge.

Ah Lang carried Yu Yan on her back. She had been unconscious the entire time, her body temperature was very high, and she had even vomited a body full of filth.

Chen Yao brought a few people in front of the two, and looked at Yu Yan who returned in shock. She had clearly bribed someone to assassinate Yu Yan, how could she return alive? She had to pay a huge price to bribe the killer from Yu Tianqi's guards!

"Madam, Miss Yu Yan is having a fever. She's very hot, let this subordinate carry her to rest first."

Seeing that Chen Yao was not willing to let them in, the Ah Lang could only plead softly.

Chen Yao finally calmed down, took a light breath, raised her chin, and said in a low voice: "Before the Prince says anything, this wife doesn't dare let her go in to see the Prince."

"Yu Yan?" Ye Mingyue brought her people and hurried over. Looking at her dirty appearance, she pinched his nose and said: "How did it turn out like this? "Why aren't you carrying her on your back? Wash her clean!"

Seeing that the two of them had no intention to let Yu Yan in, Ah Lang frowned, he swept his eyes across the two of them and said in a low voice: "Then, the two madam would like to request the side courtyard to be given to you, so I can bring Miss Yu Yan to rest."

"Let's go over there." Ye Mingyue fanned herself with the handkerchief, pointing to the western side of the courtyard.

Chen Yao turned her head to look at her, and a trace of anger that was difficult to detect flashed past her eyes. She then nodded and softly said: "Go ahead, wait a moment, I will get the Steward Fu to arrange some servants to serve her."

Ah Lang bowed slightly and carried Yu Yan on her back as she ran towards the side courtyard.

Yu Yan was only wearing a phoenix robe. Her wet hair and clothes had been blown by the fierce mountain wind, and she had even sweated.

There were only two rooms in the side courtyard, one of them was filled with junk, while the other one was where the servants lived. Seeing that Ah Lang was carrying Yu Yan in, everyone quickly moved aside to make a bed, with two servants who recognized and the Ah Lang coming over.

"Why is Miss Yu Yan's skin so hot!"

"Aiya, it's enough to roast a big cake."

The Ah Lang wiped off his sweat as he looked at his surroundings. Nian En and Nian An were trapped in the cage and not released due to Yu Yan's matter. From the looks of it, he could only ask the two girls to take care of Yu Yan.

"Ladies, please fetch some water to heat it up for her." Ah Lang cupped his fists and begged the two maids in a low voice.

The two of them were Chen Yao's servants, the ladies were fighting for favors, they knew that if they did not know what was good for them and served Yu Yan, the unsmiling Madam Chen Yao would definitely blame them.

"Go and consult the Steward Fu and see if you can get His Highness to give two people to Miss Yu Yan." Someone suggested to the Ah Lang in a low voice.

Ah Lang had no choice but to ask everyone to take care of Ah Lang for a while, then he walked out to look for Steward Fu. After searching for him for a while, Steward Fu was also a wise man, always looking at him and refusing to answer directly, he was so angry that Ah Lang's face turned green, he clenched his fists again and again, tightly controlling himself.

"Ah Lang, why do you care so much? Could it be that you secretly like Yu Yan? Be careful that the Prince will cut off your head! " Ye Sujian's sinister voice came over.

Ah Lang turned his head to look, his thick eyebrows furrowed even more. Needless to say, he was also the owner of the news and came to watch the show!

"Forget it, take two from my group and give them to her. Elder sister treats me very well, and now that she has a misunderstanding with the prince, we can't add insult to injury." Qiu Xuanling also rushed over, and pointed to her two maids.

"Alright then." Only then did Steward Fu nod his head and let him bring the two girls over.

"You fence-sitter, if you don't try to please me and go around trying to please me, will you die if your bones are a bit harder?" Ye Sujian glared at Qiu Xuanling, coldly snorted, and quickly followed along, wanting to see how Yu Yan was going to turn out, to vent the anger in her heart.

"No... "I did it because …" Qiu Xuanling pouted, seeing that no one was listening to her explanation, she slowly followed behind.

From a distance, Ye Mingyue tilted her head, leaned on a tree and looked over.

The servant girl behind her asked softly, "Why would the Madam help Yu Yan today?"

Ye Mingyue laughed soundlessly, and raised his hand to pull off a leaf. As she lightly stroked it in his hand, she said in a soft voice, "Didn't you see Chen Yao's face? I have always treated her as my sister, furthermore, everything she did in the past was to call me along, but this time, she is going up the mountain alone, so I can understand clearly what she is thinking. It is not to bully me for not understanding the ways of the world, and to try to take over the heart of the prince by myself, I must make Yu Yan stay here, if I can't get her, no one else can think of getting the heart of the prince.

The servant girl gave a light sigh and took her hand. "Why must Madame suffer? They would all fight over it. Lady Yao only knew how to play the zither, so even if she was good and obedient, she wouldn't be able to say much. Your highness has always liked you to be quiet and gentle. Maybe Yu Yan only confused your highness for a moment, if Yu Yan didn't come back, your highness might have changed his mind, but now … "

"You don't understand, you haven't seen the prince's eyes, when he looked at Yu Yan, they were so gentle … So gentle... Never looked at me like that. The way he came back just now was very scary, very angry … In his heart, he had Yu Yan. It had been so long, Chen Yao and I had not been able to serve him once, but Yu Yan … What's the use of being gentle? "Gentle and gentle will not be able to open the heart of the prince."

Ye Mingyue stood still for a while, then crushed the leaf in her hand. She turned around and slowly walked forward, her gentle voice dispersed by the wind and disappeared into the leaves.

Yulixiao walked out from the side, and stared at Ye Mingyue's back.

He had seen everything here, and these women were all willing to be sad, nervous, and anxious for him. But the woman he wanted the most, Yu Yan, had made him feel uncomfortable, aggrieved, and angry … Crazy!

Yu Yan slept for an entire day before she woke up. Even when she opened his mouth, no sound came out of it.

She was startled for a moment, then suddenly sat up. Yu Tianqi had opened her acupoints, but why had it not been opened yet?

"The young lady has woken up." She turned her head and saw a servant girl carrying a water basin in. Ah Lang was standing at the door, stretching his neck as he looked inside.

"Last night, you were scalding frighteningly hot. Ah Lang had already brought water from the well a dozen times, I'll clean your body, I'll wash your clothes, but … Do you want to keep it or not? That's a phoenix robe. " The maidservant placed the basin on the edge of the bed and poured water for her to wipe her face.

Burn it … Yu Yan opened her mouth, her eyebrows slightly knitted, and waved towards Ah Lang.
