Prince’s Brutal Consort - C60
Sure enough, she had guessed correctly.
“Ruo Ruo, wear it.” When her second brother helped her put on the human skin mask, she quickly and perfectly became a young man. When she turned to look at second brother, his face had already changed.
Without panicking, the two of them swaggered towards the main entrance of the Fragrant Pavilion.
He did not panic, and naturally, he did not arouse anyone’s suspicion. This was because too many people had come today.
The person who entered and exited didn’t even look at the door anymore.
Everything happened so smoothly that she almost couldn’t believe it. But now, she was really going to be free, and in the midst of all the commotion, she saw a hint of white. With just one glance, she quickly followed Qin Zhiqing out of the Fragrant Pavilion and sat in a carriage.
Goodbye, Simon Redsnow.
She could still hear the shouts of the men below the stage, causing her to frown when she thought of the voices.
“Ruo Ruo, leave the capital.” Before Ruo Ruo’s consciousness could leave the Fragrant Pavilion, Qin Zhiqing woke her up in a low voice.
“Ah …” If it wasn’t for the fact that his voice didn’t change, she really wouldn’t have believed that the person in front of her was her second brother. She revealed a smile, which was the most genuine smile she had seen in the past few days, and said, “Okay, but I want to bring my mother along.” Towards her mother, although Ruo Ruo didn’t truly spend time with her, she was still Qin Zhiruo’s mother after all. Since she was young, she had no parents, so she really wanted to have her mother take care of her.
Looking at her smile, Qin Zhiqing reached out his hand and grabbed onto Ruo Ruo’s hand. He looked at her gently and said gently, “Hehe, I knew you would ask for that. However, it’s too late now. When we leave the capital, I’ll think of a way to bring your mother out, okay?”
Hearing Qin Zhiqing’s earnest voice, if there was anything else he could say, he would risk ‘stealing’ her out of the Fragrant Pavilion so that she wouldn’t lose her body. This was a huge gift to her, and even though she didn’t say thank you, she still smiled and said, “Second Brother, I’ll listen to you. But if you send me away like this, will Eldest Mother and Father find any trouble with you?”
“Ruo Ruo, let’s go together.” The hand that was holding her tightened, causing a feeling of tides to surface, causing her to wake up. She hastily retracted her hand and looked down at the hand that was still in front of her. She was apologetic and didn’t dare to raise her head to look at him again.
She always felt that the way Second Brother looked at her was a little strange, as if it far surpassed the relationship between siblings. However, she didn’t know what kind of position she had in the Qin family, what she had was merely what she had seen in those short few days.
Qin Zhiqing was slightly embarrassed, but he still smiled as he gently retracted his hand, “Zhiruo, you aren’t willing to go with me?”
This question made her panic. How could she not want to follow Qin Zhiqing? She knew that as long as she did not leave the capital, she would not be safe. Xi Men Rui Xue and Yun Ru Xi’s people would catch up to her at any time.
“Second Brother, that’s not what I meant. I really wish I had Second Brother’s company. It’s just, if I really became this selfish, would it affect Second Brother?” Men all had their own businesses, so this man in Xi Jin wanted to have a prosperous future. Once Qin Zhiqing left the capital, his future would be taken away from him.
“No, if it wasn’t for you, actually, second brother would have already left. Ruo Ruo, have you really forgotten about the past?” Ye Zichen sighed and asked, “I really want you to remember everything from before. How good is that?”
“What does Second Brother want me to remember? If it’s very important, second brother can tell me. ” It would be impossible for her to recover her memories. She wasn’t the Qin Zhiruo from before. She raised her head to look at Qin Zhiruo as she really wanted to know some of the stories about Qin Zhiruo from before.
Qin Zhiqing’s burning gaze was locked onto her black eyes. He paused for a moment before saying softly, “Let’s talk after we’re out of the capital.”
“Second brother …” Just as Ruo Ruo wanted to ask further, she heard the chaos outside the carriage. There was the sound of people running around, and then the sound of horses galloping across the road.
Ruo Ruo gently lifted a corner of the carriage curtain and looked out. She saw a man riding a horse and galloping forward. Thinking that the horse was travelling in the same direction as her, Ruo Ruo’s heart skipped a beat. “Second brother, did they notice that I left Fragrance Pavilion?”
“Yes.” Qin Zhiqing lightly replied without panicking at all. Instead, he turned to the coachman and said, “Take the second route.”
As soon as Qin Zhiqing finished speaking, the coachman turned the carriage onto another street, which was opposite to the street where the horses were galloping.
“Second Brother, we’re not leaving the city anymore?” If the horses were to report to the men guarding the city gates, that direction would be the direction in which they would leave the city.
“Take the other way.”
“Oh.” She still didn’t understand, but this time, Qin Zhiqing’s plans were extremely meticulous. Last time, he didn’t save her in the palace, but this time he was determined to save her.
The carriage sped on. Listening to the sounds of wheels rolling, she could not believe that she had already left Fragrance Pavilion. She reached out her hand to pinch her face. It really hurt. Hehe, she really escaped.
“Second Brother, did Xi Men Rui Xue let you off the other time at the palace?” She asked in a low voice. For some reason, the white figure that she saw when she left the Fragrant Pavilion flashed in her mind again. That white figure actually gave off a lonely feeling.
“Hmph, did you think it would be?” Qin Zhiqing coldly snorted, “He just wanted to trap you in the palace by his side.”
“Second brother, didn’t the empress want to trap me?” Why did it become Ximen Ruixue now? If you don’t understand, then you don’t understand at all.
Although he was not looking at her, his thoughtful expression had already made him understand that the one who was trapping her was not Yun Ru Xi. That’s right, the person who had grabbed her from the wall of the Fragrant Pavilion was also Xi Men Rui Xue. Think about his actions, if he did not want to trap her, then why would he work so hard for Yun Ru Xi?
“Ruo Ruo, you’ll know what he’s after as time passes. There are many things that second brother hopes that you can just do as you want and not be controlled by others.”
What could she do?
She was only a weak girl who was powerless, but everyone in the capital seemed to view her as a thorn in their side.
“Second Brother, why did the Queen want to kill me?” If she didn’t ask the question that she had been holding in for so long, she would go crazy.
But just as he asked that question, the sounds of horse hooves came from outside the carriage again. This time, there were a lot of people on the horses.
“Stop, do your routine and check the car.” Ruo Ruo heard someone shouting from outside the carriage.
The carriage stopped at the side of the road. Ruo Ruo’s heart was beating fast. If she were to be found out by this time, wouldn’t all her efforts go down the drain?
“Ruo’er, don’t panic, they won’t recognize you.” Qin Zhiqing seemed to have sensed her panic. He gently held her hand and whispered into her ear.
His voice calmed down her flustered heart, but she calmed down very quickly. With second brother around, she was really not afraid.
This time, second brother had sent out so many people to disguise as her, but no one had expected her to change into a man.
In front of the carriage, the sound of hoofbeats could be heard. “Open!” A soldier roared as the coachman opened the curtains.
“Yes, please wait a moment, sir.” The coachman unhurriedly opened the curtain of the carriage.
Outside the carriage, the torches were brightly lit. The leader of the riders said, “Raise your head.”
Ruo Ruo hid the slight confusion in her heart. Her face had become a man’s face long ago, so there was no need to be afraid.
When the soldier saw that the two men in the carriage were both men, he waved his hand and said, “Put them down.”
“Yes, sir.”
He had passed the test. It had really gone smoothly, so smoothly that even Ruo Ruo didn’t believe him.
However, just as the curtain was drawn down, Ruo Ruo heard a familiar voice. “Commander Jin, who’s inside the carriage?”
His voice made his heart drop to his throat. God, it was Ximen Ruixue. He did not expect that a crown prince like him would actually chase after her.
“Reporting to the crown prince, it’s two men.”
“Oh, then hurry up and go to other places to investigate. You have to see the corpse or die, or else, you will know the consequences.” Xi Men Rui Xue’s harsh tone had completely changed the image of him as a flowery young master. Her voice also revealed a few hints of anxiousness.
No, he was not anxious about her disappearance. He was just in a hurry to return her to the Fragrance Pavilion to receive her guests.
“Yes.” Commander Jin acknowledged the order and galloped off.
The air seemed to be filled with the fragrance of the fragrance from Ximen Ruixue’s body. It was faint, but refreshing.
“Let’s go.” Just as he was panicking over the arrival of Ximen Ruixue, Qin Zhiqing was extremely calm as he instructed the coachman to set off. He had done it on purpose, but even his voice had changed.
Her change in tone somewhat calmed her heart. She finally felt safe when the carriage started to move. ‘Ximen Ruoxue, you have missed it in the end.
However, her secret happiness only lasted for three seconds before she was hit back into panic by Xi Men Rui’s voice from outside the carriage. “Stop.”
