Chapter 252 She is His Sister

Just as she was about to fall onto the rockery, a big hand pulled her tightly, followed by another pair of slender hands that steady her.

"Princess!"

Leng Yue's voice came from behind.

Qi Yue was extremely surprised, and turned around to see that it was Leng Yue and Gu Qingyu.

"Ayu! Lengyue! How did you get in?"

Gu Qingyu looked much thinner and haggard, and because of the long journey, his chin had a lot of stubble.

The clouds parted and the moonlight fell on his face, which was filled with the joy of reuniting with his lover.

He put his arm around her shoulders, and Qi Yue leaned against his chest.

"Ayue, I'm here to save you..."

Qi Yue's gaze fell on his right shoulder, which was already empty.

Suddenly, she remembered the dream she had before.

I instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

Qi Yue pushed him away, took two steps back and said in a low voice: "Leng Yue, take the prince consort away quickly!"

Leng Yue was puzzled: "Princess, your subordinate and your husband are here to rescue you. We have already found a way to escape..."

Just as he finished speaking, the sound of weapons and footsteps was heard in the imperial garden, and the fire was getting closer.

Gu Qingyu and Leng Yue immediately protected Qi Yue and turned to enter the dark area inside the rockery.

The three of them held their breath and dared not move.

"Search quickly! You go over there, and the rest of you follow me to search this side!"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has ordered that the person must be found!"

After a while, the searching soldiers gradually went away.

Qi Yue's forehead was already covered with sweat, and Gu Qingyu raised his hand to help her wipe it away.

The next second, his palm touched her skin and found it was very hot.

"Ayue, why is your face so hot?"

Qi Yue covered her face and said, "I accidentally got poisoned..."

Gu Qingyu was instantly enraged and punched the rock. "Murong Heli, that beast, how dare he drug you!"

Qi Yue held his hand and said, "It wasn't him who did it..."

"Ayue, you are just too kind. You don't need to cover up for that villain!"

Gu Qingyu held her hand tightly and said firmly, "Ayue, don't worry. We have already figured out the layout of the palaces leading to the Li Kingdom Palace before Murong Heli arrived."

"Besides, Prince Rong has arranged for someone to drug Murong Heli today. We can take advantage of the chaos to escape!"

Leng Yue took out a porcelain bottle from her arms and handed it over.

"Princess, here are the detoxification pills that the imperial physician of Shao Si made for you. They can cure all kinds of poisons. Please take them quickly."

Qi Yue took the porcelain bottle and thought of Shao Siyan’s tragic death, his heart ached even more.

She poured out a pill and swallowed it: "Those soldiers just now must have been sent by Murong Heli to look for me. That means Prince Rong failed. There are too many soldiers searching. Take me with you, and you won't be able to escape."

She turned around and ordered Leng Yue sternly, "Take the consort away immediately. This is the imperial decree!"

Leng Yue's face flashed with stubbornness, "Princess, I'm sorry I can't obey your orders!"

After saying that, he raised his hand and tapped her xuedao.

Leng Yue quickly caught the fallen porcelain bottle and handed it to Gu Qingyu.

Qi Yue opened his eyes wide and said in disbelief: "What are you going to do!"

"Princess, I will exchange clothes with you and lead the people away. You and your husband will definitely be able to escape!"

"No! If you are caught, Murong Heli will kill you!"

"Princess, as long as you are safe, I will be happy to do so."

Gu Qingyu looked at Leng Yue's determined expression. He punched the rock and turned away with heavy steps.

While Leng Yue was changing her and Qi Yue's clothes, she whispered, "Princess, the luckiest thing in Leng Yue's life is being your secret guard."

"I was abducted and sold when I was young. I was beaten and scolded, and I didn't have enough food or warm clothes. Later, the traffickers hit me on the head and threw me into the black market. Fortunately, I was not destined to die."

"Later, I was sold to the Moon Shadow Guard and became a secret guard. Since I came to the princess' side, I have felt the warmth of home again."

"Nine years have passed, and because of the head injury I received, I have long forgotten what my family members looked like. I can only vaguely remember that I have a brother... Princess, I have always regarded you as my own family. I know that I am humble..."

Qi Yue had tears in her eyes and her voice was a little choked: “No, Leng Yue, I have always regarded you as a relative, sister, you are not humble, not at all.”

Leng Yue was stunned, and moisture gradually welled up in her eyes.

She suppressed her voice and trembled, "Princess...your subordinate...can I hug you?"

Qi Yue bit her lip and nodded vigorously.

Leng Yue hugged her gently and rested his head on her shoulder.

"It's great... I have a family again..."

Suddenly, Qi Yue thought of something, and she asked hurriedly: "Leng Yue, how old are you this year?"

"Nineteen...Princess, what's wrong?"

In a flash, she seemed to have figured something out, and she said, "Leng Yue, you should first unravel my secrets. It seems... I seem to know who your brother is!"

He Xiang is only seventeen years old, so the age doesn't match.

Leng Yue was ten years old nine years ago, so the time and age match...

Leng Yue thought about it and decided to untie the Xue Dao.

Qi Yue immediately pulled her into the moonlight, held her face and looked at it carefully.

To be honest, she doesn't look alike with Lin Xu.

But if you compare them carefully, the similarities between the two are only very subtle.

This is why Qi Yue had never thought of the two of them in the same mind before.

She touched her brow bone, then excitedly pressed her shoulder and said seriously: "Leng Yue, go find Lin Xu. If I'm not mistaken, he is your biological brother! He told me before that he had a younger sister who was abducted by the enemy when she was ten years old."

"Your age matches his sister's, and the time you were kidnapped also matches. Moreover, I found that your eyebrows and nose are very similar to his. You two probably look like one from your father and the other from your mother."

"Even if it's not, it doesn't matter. You belong to me. Lin Xu will save you! Go to the cold palace and find Ye San. He belongs to me."

"There is a secret room in the cold palace. The button is on a raised stone in the lower right corner of the bare wall."

Leng Yue thought of the man who had easily taken Qi Yue away in front of her at Yong'an Marquis Mansion, and her brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

Qi Yue knew that it was difficult for her to digest so much at once, so he pressed her shoulder and reiterated.

"Remember, I know I can't stop you from leading the pursuers away, so after leading them away, if you can't get away, you must go find Lin Xu. He is your only way out, and our only way out."

She bit her lip and nodded heavily.

After dealing with the traitor, Murong Heli personally led people to search the palace.

On the other side, Murong Qian was also excitedly leading people to search for Qi Yue's whereabouts.

Leng Yue was the first to go out of the Imperial Garden and went not far from where the soldiers were being recruited, then she deliberately made a noise.

“Who’s there!”
