The reborn sycophant

Chapter 57 Secret

Taking a step forward, Wei Chuyan immediately murmured inwardly that it was terrible, she shouldn't have reacted like this! They should just be suspicious, but now that she ran away with someone, it was tantamount to exposing herself.

But the steps had already been taken, and there was no room for turning back. She threw away the thought of regret, and pulled Zhao Ji quickly into the alley next to her.

Behind him, a low voice came faintly.

"Catch them..."

"Run to Dongkou Lane, you go around and block them from one end..."

"Damn, run so fast..."

Before being intercepted, they ran out of the alley on the other side, and saw a long street with people coming and going, and they broke into the crowd and continued to run.

Running past new and old restaurants, large and small teahouses, various shops passed by in sight, and they continued to run.

Knocked down the stalls of a few small vendors, they didn't care much, and continued to run forward. In the stream of people chasing after them, in addition to the well-trained guards, there were a few more vendors who yelled at them to lose money .

Inspired by the joining of those people, Wei Chuyan threw up stalls and bumped into people when she ran all the way. She had unparalleled strength, and when she deliberately created chaos, almost no one could stop her. As they ran, the chickens flew, the eggs shattered, vegetables and fruits fell on the ground, and the rain pits on the ground were splashed with mud and water, causing chaos everywhere, and there were endless curses on the long street.Those who were chasing them were constantly stumbling, and had no choice but to slow down. The people who were eating and drinking in the restaurant ran to the window, huddled together, and watched the lively scene below with great interest. He spilled the wine in his hand downstairs, pouring it on the heads of innocent people, and there was a new noise.

Running across the street, the girl from the brothel who was not doing business during the day was also awakened by the sudden uproar. She pushed open the window and looked down sleepily. The sound came to the ears of some idlers, and they looked upstairs, and the red and white ones came into view, the red one was the newly painted railing, and the white one was the watery girl. up.

"Did you get rid of them?" After the pursuers were gradually thrown away, Zhao Ji asked out of breath.Just now, as soon as Wei Chuyan dragged her to run, she followed, without asking a single word, because she knew that Wei Chuyan had her reasons for doing so.

All she had to do was follow closely in the footsteps of the person beside her.

"For the time being, I can't stay here for a long time. Can you still run? I'll run with you on my back!"

Stopping to take a breath, Wei Chuyan made a gesture to carry her on his back.Zhao Ji shook his head like a rattle: "No need! I can run, but if you carry me on your back, it will never be faster than the two of us running together."

Wei Chuyan put his hand on her shoulder, glanced at her, then took her hand again, and ran to the side street, running like the wind and cunning like a fox, turning around many alleys, and waiting No one could trace the two of them anymore. On a relatively deserted street, the two of them stopped.

"I should have thought earlier that the assassins could not find us, and might ambush us near the palace... This is really too bold... At the foot of the emperor, it is only two streets away from the palace gate, and they also Dare to intercept and kill the Empress here... that's crazy!"

I found a small inn and went in, changed clothes, turned out from the window, turned two streets, and asked for a private room in a restaurant to eat, while Wei Chuyan prepared dishes for Zhao Ji, he thought about what to do How to explain to her why he suddenly took her away.

The man... she knew.

It is a secret guard under the second emperor's daughter.When she entered the court in the previous life, Zhao Ji had already ascended the throne, and His Royal Highness Qianyangjun, such as the eldest prince and the second princess, were crowned kings one by one and went to their fiefs.The reason why she has an impression of this person is because she has seen a portrait of this person in the palace files.

Even if the brothers and sisters went to the fiefdom, Zhao Ji never stopped monitoring them. Who and how many people were around them, on the surface or hidden in secret, never had any clues in front of the emperor who wanted to investigate. Hide away.

These are royal secrets, and when she first learned about them, she also felt cold because of Zhao Ji's indifference and defense.

But... Zhao Ji showed her such a private thing openly, not caring how much she would know.

That coldness never targeted her.

Zhao Ji bit his chopsticks and glanced at her. Seeing her wandering eyes, wondering what she was thinking, he waved his little hand in front of her eyes and asked her, "Do you know those people?"

Just now, she could see clearly that Wei Chuyan just took a look at the other side, and immediately dragged her away. She didn't have time to ask Wei Chuyan at that time, and she knew that she shouldn't ask at that time, but now she is safe, and in her heart doubts emerged.

Why was Wei Chu's banquet so decisive?

Wei Chuyan was silent for a moment, and gave her a piece of fish: "Those people... are a little obvious, I guess."

Zhao Ji stared at her for a long time, lowered his head to eat the fish, the fish was already cold, and when it was cold, it became fishy, ​​she swallowed it into her stomach, feeling her mouth full of bitterness.

Tears dripped into the rice, she cried silently, and suddenly felt her face soften, because someone covered the corners of her eyes with a silk handkerchief.

"Aren't you going to never change your habit of deceiving people?" Zhao Ji was very hurt as he grabbed Wei Chuyan's hand.

Wei Chuyan looked at her like this, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes.

Sometimes she felt that Zhao Ji was too perceptive.She likes this kind of sensitivity, but it also means that as Zhao Ji grows up, it becomes more and more difficult for her to deceive her.

So how to keep her secrets?

"This habit of deceiving people... I did not develop it voluntarily. Along the way, you saw that I deceived many people, and I had to deceive them, because I couldn't trust anyone. By my side, your life is more important than anything else, for this, it is worthwhile for me to lie."

Zhao Ji wiped away his tears: "But I'm not the others, why did you even lie to me? I thought, I thought..."

"Why do you think?"

"I thought that night, after we talked, there was no need for you to lie to me anymore. We have each other's biggest secret, don't we?"

But the problem is, that's not her biggest secret...

Wei Chuyan's heart skipped a beat. For a moment, he wanted to tell Zhao Ji his secret, but as soon as the thought came up, he was stifled by the reason in his heart.

The theory of ghosts and gods, can anyone believe it?

Even if she believed it, wouldn't she be a monster in Zhao Ji's eyes from now on.

This is her biggest secret, and she will never tell it when she dies, and she will keep it in the coffin.

Her silence hit Zhao Ji a lot. Zhao Ji wanted to shake off her hand, but she grabbed her tightly. Zhao Ji was angry and threw his chopsticks to bite her. She moved her wrist, but Zhao Ji bit it away. , gnawed on her tender fingertips, and immediately, drops of blood came out, but she seemed to be unconscious, still closing her eyes, obliterating all the twilight.

Looking at the blood bead, Zhao Ji felt uncomfortable for a while, grabbed her silk handkerchief and wiped her wound, perhaps because of hurting Wei Chuyan, the gloom in her heart subsided a lot, and she felt guilty instead, at this moment Wei Chuyan finally spoke: "Everyone has secrets. I also have some secrets...I can't tell you. But I can guarantee one thing, I will never harm you."

Is this enough?

That's enough.

Zhao Ji thought, enough is enough.It was this person who brought her back to Chang'an from Jingzhou through hardships and hardships. It was this person who secretly saved dry food for her to eat, but left him starving and skinny.

Is it just because she is His Royal Highness of Daqi?

His Highness Lao Shizi!If she had been abandoned early, Wei Chuyan would never have suffered so much, she could turn back to Yunan alone, and make up any reason, no one can use her to embarrass Wei Chuyan.

So, isn't it wrong for her to lose her temper with Wei Chuyan over a trivial matter now?

"It's all your fault, you're too kind to me." Zhao Ji lowered her head and carefully bandaged Wei Chuyan's wound. During the period, Chuyan tried to stretch her hand over, saying it was a small wound, but she hugged Wei Chuyan's arm and couldn't hold it. Ken let go.

She bandaged it carefully, Wei Chuyan had already seen a very soft Zhao Ji, but at this moment she was still soft-hearted for her cuteness, she raised her hand and touched Zhao Ji's head.

Not surprisingly, he was knocked down again, accompanied by a murmur: "How many times have I said, don't touch my head."

Touching once is one less time. When this person becomes an emperor, who would dare to touch her like this?

Wei Chuyan smiled and remained silent.

"By the way, they are blocking the palace like this...how do we enter the palace? Besides, they have discovered our whereabouts now, and they will definitely send more people to search the whole process, right? Will it be unsafe soon?"

After eating, the two of them still did not leave the box, but sat in a small room with no windows open, discussing in a low voice what to do.

"We ran a long distance, and they couldn't find them for the time being, and they have changed their clothes, so it should be effective. But if they target one or two children, we are still in danger."

"Then what should we do? Shall we change into boys' clothes?"

"Ji... They must know what you look like. Even if you are dressed as a boy, they will recognize your face when they see it. I think it's not easy for us to wander around the city anymore , Fortunately, there is one thing, it should not be wrong."

"Which point?"

"This is Chang'an. Some people want to kill you, but there are many people who want to protect you. I believe that besides those who want to kill you, there are many empresses near the palace gate. It's just that we are unlucky. It’s just that we met the enemy. Look, we made such a big noise when we escaped today, the empress must have heard the news, and she should send someone to look for us at this time.” Wei Chuyan’s eyes were full of confidence The glory came: "We just need to wait and see if the enemy finds us first, or the people from your mother's side find us first."

"But... what if? What if the assassin comes first?"

"If it's an assassin, then I'll just run with you. I'll protect you. I've traveled such a long distance. It doesn't make sense to be caught at the door of my house."

"Besides, you need to know one thing. This is Chang'an. Since it is in Chang'an, the power of the noble concubine must be greater than that of the mouse who hides in the dark and dare not show up."

In the previous life, Concubine Wan Gui was the woman who supported Zhao Ji to ascend to the throne. How could she not be powerful?Wei Chuyan is [-]% sure that he will be able to wait for his own people.
