Qi Huang seemed not to hear, and continued to idly flip through some miscellaneous notes left by Bai Shuo.
Seemingly able to discern their thoughts,
He didn't even look up.
"I don't care where you come from, what you're going to Yunhai City for, or why you're fleeing. Once you arrive in Yunhai City, just get off the vehicle as if you've never seen me before."
The woman's name was Chi Wen.
Spoiled from a young age, he disliked staying confined to the backyard and often went out to play.
I have also seen many people and things.
Hearing this, he looked at Qi Huang curiously.
A delicately sculpted face, with exceptionally bright and beautiful eyes.
"Sister must be kind-hearted despite her cold exterior, otherwise she wouldn't have been so kind as to let us get in the car. Brother Sheng, don't be so wary."
Hu Sheng felt quite helpless about this.
Chi Wen is naive and lacks awareness of the world; being away from home is not a good thing.
He quickly cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.
"Miss, we're so sorry, we just didn't want to cause you any trouble."
Qi Huang hummed in response but did not reply.
Chi Wen, however, could not bear the loneliness.
She wanted to speak again, but Hu Sheng pulled her to his side and stopped her.
The car fell silent again, and Qi Huang lazily wanted to close her eyes once more.
Suddenly, the sound of galloping hooves arose from behind the carriage, and horses were in hot pursuit.
Hu Sheng suddenly became a little anxious.
Leaning over, I lifted a corner of the side curtain to look outside.
"Damn it, why are these people chasing us so relentlessly?"
Chi Wen's face turned deathly pale.
"Brother Sheng, are they chasing us again? Didn't we shake them off by taking the mountain road?"
Hu Sheng clenched his hands tightly.
Suddenly, he knelt down in front of Qi Huang with a thud.
“Young lady, we are complete strangers, and I should not have the audacity to ask you for help.”
As he spoke, he pulled out a stack of silver notes and an envelope from his pocket.
After handing the letter to Chi Wen, he kowtowed to Qi Huang again.
"With life and death at stake, I can't worry about anything else. Please take Wenwen to Tiansheng Restaurant in Yunhai City. These silver notes will be your reward. At the next bend, I'll jump out of the carriage and run into the mountains to distract them. You can then escape."
"no!"
Chi Wen immediately grabbed his arm in a panic.
His eyes were red.
"I don't want to. We might as well die together."
Hu Sheng was heartbroken.
"Wenwen, they won't let you die. You know what the consequences are if you're caught. How can you expect me to do that?"
Chi Wen blinked her big eyes, tears streaming down her face.
"Damn this talent show, why are you dragging me down like this? The old rules clearly state that once you're engaged, you're no longer eligible for selection. We're about to get married, yet we're being forced to flee. Is there no one who can do anything about this? And all that talk about my horoscope bringing good fortune to the royal family is utter bullshit!"
Qi Huang couldn't help but raise her eyes.
"Your birth date and time? What's your birth information?"
Chi Wen sniffed and told him her birth date and time.
Qi Huang raised her hand to calculate, and a sudden glint flashed in her eyes.
These eight characters are not only beneficial to Mo Yunzhao, but they are clearly very helpful to his destiny.
If they indulge in pleasure for too long, the woman's life force will be drained.
It's worse than death.
It seems that Mo Yunzhao consulted a fortune teller.
At this moment, Hu Sheng reached out to untie Chi Wen's cloak.
"Wenwen, be good. I'll pretend to be you when I get off the bus. Remember not to make a sound."
The sound of horses' hooves grew closer behind them.
Shouts have already been heard.
"Stop! Stop right now!"
The driver, puzzled, turned and asked.
"Master..."
Looking at the two people facing life and death, Qi Huang said calmly, "You can't escape."
Hu Sheng was unwilling to accept this.
"How will you know if you don't try? Do you expect me to just watch Wenwen get arrested and taken to the palace?"
Qi Huang picked up the silver note and stuffed it into his pocket without any hesitation.
"Sit still and don't talk."
The two were puzzled.
Qi Huang stood up and lifted the fabric in front of her.
"parking."
Hu Sheng was shocked.
"you want……"
He was about to ask why, but suddenly he couldn't make a sound.
At this moment, Qi Huang bowed and stepped forward, standing gracefully like a fairy on the carriage shaft.
Seven or eight men dressed in black rode up on horseback and surrounded them.
The leader pointed with his riding whip.
"Get the people out of the carriage!"
Qi Huang raised her hand and directly lifted the curtain.
Hu Sheng and Chi Wen inside were so frightened they almost screamed. They never expected that Qi Huang would betray them without any hesitation.
After their initial surprise, the two clasped hands and slowly looked at each other.
Their eyes held a resolute look.
He was determined to prove his innocence by dying.
But then someone exclaimed "Eh!"
"How could there be no one here? The trail leads to this road, and only this one carriage has ever traveled this route. If they weren't in the carriage, where could they be?"
The coachman's eyes widened in surprise.
He personally helped the person onto the carriage, so how could the person just vanish into thin air?
Chi Wen and Hu Sheng, who were inside the carriage, were also stunned.
Chi Wen tried to speak, but Hu Sheng quickly covered her mouth.
He suddenly remembered Qi Huang's instructions when she got out of the car, and his eyes involuntarily turned to look, his eyes filled with surprise and doubt.
Who exactly is this woman?
How could someone possess such skill, using such a sleight of hand?
Qi Huang lowered the curtain.
The color of his eyes was faint.
"Is there anything else?"
The leader suddenly lashed the coachman with his whip.
"Tell me, did you see a young couple? I'm warning you, they are imperial concubines chosen by the Emperor. If you dare to harbor them, it's a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of your family!"
The driver's arm was bleeding from the beating.
He knelt down tremblingly.
There was no one in the carriage, so how could he say anything?
