Hearing that, Ling Hua nodded her head seriously, but her face still had a smirk on it. She took a step forward and circled around Hu Xiao, and teased: "People have already heard that the princess of South Yue is getting married again."

She stood in front of Hu Xiao, and the corner of her mouth hooked into a teasing smile.

Hu Xiao frowned, the people actually had this kind of gossip, who was it that liked to gossip?

She did not speak, and simply stood there in a daze. Right at this moment, Qin Shuo’s face flashed past her mind.

Seeing that she did not speak, Ling Hua brought her face closer to hers and asked, "Hu Xiao, is this true? Are you really going to get married again?"

Seeing her in a daze, Ling Hua could not make up her mind at the moment. What’s so good about a girl being alone, it would be better to find a good family to marry her.

"When will you treat big sister to a wedding wine? I’ll prepare a huge gift for you." Ling Hua rubbed her nose, a crafty look in her eyes.

Hearing her words, Hu Xiao rolled her eyes at her. Since when did she say she wanted to marry someone else!

Hu Xiao could not forget about Qin Shuo. Naturally, she would not marry so quickly.

"Don’t speak nonsense. I am a married woman. Won’t I become a debauchee if I marry again?" Hu Xiao shrugged her shoulders, trying to suppress Ling Hua’s teasing with Confucianism.

However, this was not the first time Ling Hua had met her, so he naturally did not take advantage of her. Her left hand rested on Hu Xiao’s shoulder as she looked down at him from above.

"Hu Xiao, stop lying to me. Do you think that I know you for the first time? If you take the Confucianism into consideration, you wouldn’t divorce the East Court Kingdom Monarch." Ling Hua’s red lips opened and closed, her words were reasonable. That’s right, if Hu Xiao was a normal girl, she wouldn’t be staying in her mother’s home right now.

Hu Xiao pushed her a little, and with a laugh, she stood up and leisurely walked towards the window, following that, she said indifferently: "Marriage is a huge matter, I don’t want to get married anymore. In my life, one marriage is enough, if you have more, I will get tired of it."

She rested her chin on her hands and stared out the window at the crowd on the street.

People came and went, who in the end was her fated one? Hu Xiao made a big question in her heart.

The sky gradually darkened and the bright moon hung high in the sky. She couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.

On the way back to the palace, Ling Hua’s words lingered in her mind and wouldn’t go away for a long time.

There was no wind at the hole, she thought, since there was such a rumor amongst the people, she should be more careful, and not get arranged by the Royal Brother.

I can’t be in a passive position. No, I have to talk to Mo Zhu and hear what he has to say.

"To the relay station in East Court." Hu Xiao said indifferently. Mo Zhu lived in the relay station, so she quickly made the coachman change the direction of the carriage.

"Yes," the coachman responded, quickly changing directions, "Princess, it’s already so late, why don’t you think about it more carefully?"

Looking at the desolate night, the coachman was a bit worried. It didn’t matter that something had happened to him, but the princess was a girl with golden branches and jade leaves. If something happened to her, his family would be in trouble.

A coachman would never be able to persuade his master otherwise.

Hu Xiao didn’t even raise his eyes as she lazily said, "What are you afraid of? Are there still robbers robbing me at the feet of the Son of Heaven?"

Hu Xiao laughed contemptuously. She was used to living alone and was very confident in her own martial arts.

Since she had already said so, it was naturally hard for the coachman to say anything. The rolling carriage appeared extremely strange on the small path, and there were basically no people on the way.

"Stop the car!" Suddenly, Hu Xiao shouted loudly, after she said that, her body shot out like an arrow, and immediately escaped from the dangerous carriage.

"Who is it?" She looked around, and at last her eyes fell on the fallen coachman.

Hu Xiao’s heart ached. She felt very guilty, thinking that she had let down the coachman, if she had known earlier, the coachman wouldn’t have died.

She gripped the long whip she carried with her and swung it in the air with a ’whoosh’.

Not long later, a sharp sword met him head on. Hu Xiao was shocked, she immediately responded to the attack, even with her powerful martial arts, she was unable to defend against the enemy’s wheel style of attack.

Her opponent was not just one person, but many people. They were all masked, and Hu Xiao simply couldn’t see their appearance.

"Sneaking around. If you have the ability, duel him. Let’s have a fair and square match." Hu Xiao sneered, her face becoming more ruthless, the ground was splattered with blood, some of them were Hu Xiao’s, while others were also the black clothed man’s.

Fresh blood gurgled out from his arm, soaking Hu Xiao’s sleeves.

Hu Xiao clenched her teeth, she did not have any intention to retreat, and allowed her to slander and damage her self-esteem. Her opponent only wanted to take Hu Xiao’s life, she did not even have the intention to reply. freewebnσvel.cѳm

Hu Xiao’s face became even paler, she knew that she was almost unable to hold on any longer.

"Who sent you here? If you want me to die, then let me die for you!" Hu Xiao took the opportunity to ask while she was resting.

"..." However, what responded to her was the cold sword of the man in black.

Hu Xiao bit her lips. With a "puchi" sound, the sharp blade pierced her flesh again.

"Qin Shuo, I’m sorry, Royal Brother, I’m sorry, Ling Hua ..." Hu Xiao filtered all the names that he could think of in his mind.

She knew she was going to die, unless a miracle happened.

Right at this moment, she felt something warm on her waist, and she instantly fell into a warm embrace.

Shocked, she raised her head, but could not see the other party’s face.

"I’ll take you away." The man only said one sentence before he stopped. He hugged Hu Xiao tightly, trying his best not to touch Hu Xiao’s wound.

Seeing that the man was protecting him, Hu Xiao heaved a sigh of relief. Knowing that she was safe, she said in a hoarse voice, "Mn, be careful."

Hu Xiao stared blankly at the man, and she really wanted to lift the black cloth that covered his face.

After a quarter of an hour, the man finished the man in black.

He placed Hu Xiao under a tree and lowered her voice as she asked. "Come, I’ll take you back."

He did not ask where Hu Xiao was going, but directly asked to bring her back. Hu Xiao was puzzled, but the man had saved her, so she could not question and suspect him.

"Send me to the post station at East Court. I want to find the advisor, Mo Zhu, from East Court." Hu Xiao endured the pain from her wound and said seriously.

The man glanced at her but didn’t say anything. He carried her in his arms and disappeared into the night.

Hu Xiao was very much at ease with him and thought that he would bring her to find Mo Zhu.

However, the man did not follow Hu Xiao’s instructions and send her to the East Court station. Instead, he went to the place Hu Xiao was most familiar with.

Looking at the familiar setting in front of him, Hu Xiao shuddered and woke up from her dreams.
