The man was wearing black clothes and a mask, with a slender figure and only a pair of sharp eyes showing.
"Are you okay?"
He asked Yang Zhao.
Yang Zhaowei shook his head.
"Who are you? How dare you stop me from doing my work!" Xu Chang shouted angrily when he saw the man in black who suddenly appeared.
"Humph, if you want to catch her, you have to get past me first!"
Before the man in black finished speaking, he flashed and started fighting with the guards.
His moves were fierce and swift, and after a few rounds, the guards fell to the ground one after another.
Seeing this, Xu Chang's face turned extremely ugly.
"Who are you? How dare you go against the imperial court!" Xu Chang shouted in a timid tone.
The man in black sneered, "How dare you, a villain like you, call yourself the emperor?"
After that, the man in black pulled Yang Zhao up and said, "Miss, follow me."
Yang Zhao looked at the man in black, and without any hesitation, the two of them quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
Xu Chang roared angrily, "Chase him!"
However, most of his guards were injured and could not move for a while.
Xu Chang could only watch Yang Zhao and the man in black leave, feeling angry and resentful, as if the duck that was about to be in his mouth had flown away.
But at this moment, he wanted to write a letter.
He turned around and hurried into the palace, intending to report to Emperor Wenyuan.
But before he could reach the palace gate, he was put into a sack.
When he came out of the sack again and saw who had captured him, he was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out...

The other side.
The man in black and Yang Zhao walked through many alleys and finally entered a back door.
"It's okay. It's safe."
The man in black turned and spoke to Yang Zhao.
Yang Zhao was out of breath from running, her forehead was covered in sweat, and her hair, which was simply tied up, was a little messy. Several strands of hair were stuck to her pretty cheeks, making her look indescribably charming.
"Thank you just now, sir."
Yang Zhao thanked him while panting.
But at this moment, a hand fell on her face and gently pinched away the hair on her cheek.
The movements are gentle.
Yang Zhao's body stiffened, and the next moment he reached out and slapped the hand away, quickly taking a step back with a cold and unhappy look in his eyes.
"do what!"
Mo Chen's hand was still in the air.
Looking at Yang Zhao, whose eyes were as alert as a little rabbit with its fur standing on end, he felt indescribably happy.
"Don't get me wrong, I just saw some hair on your face and wanted to remove it from your face..." Mo Chen explained in a low voice.
Yang Zhao frowned in disgust: "No matter what's on your face, it's not gentlemanly of you to touch a woman so casually."
"Yes, it's my fault."
Mo Chen quickly apologized with a good temper, even bowing and saying, "I apologize for my disrespect just now."
Only then did Yang Zhao's expression ease a little.
"Thank you for your help, sir. I will repay you for your help today when I have the chance. I will take my leave now."
"Wait a moment."
Mo Chen looked at Yang Zhao: "A Zhao, do you really not remember me?"
Yang Zhao frowned in confusion.
At this time, Mo Chen finally took off the veil on his face, revealing his fair and handsome face.
He is indeed very good-looking.
If it were any other woman, seeing him like this, she would probably blush and fall in love with him.
But when Yang Zhao saw Mo Chen, except for a moment of surprise, he quickly returned to normal.
The vigilance in his eyes has not disappeared.
However, he stepped back slightly and bowed: "Greetings, His Royal Highness King Cheng."
Looking at Yang Zhao who was so polite and distant, Mo Chen felt helpless, but he also felt that this was just her, she was so "indifferent" to everyone.
Just like when he first met her!
"You don't have to be afraid of me."
Mo Chen smiled and said soothingly, "You don't have to treat me like some king. If you hadn't saved my life at the foot of Miao Mountain in Yunnan, I wouldn't be alive now. You saved my life, so it's yours."
"Besides, as you've seen, I, the King of Cheng, was imprisoned right after returning. Honestly, my current situation isn't very good, so you don't have to worry about me harming you. I've also heard about the Marquis of Zhenbei."
"Don't worry, the Marquis and the Third Young Master are only being held in prison now. They'll be fine for now."
Having said that, Mo Chen looked at Yang Zhao seriously and said, "A Zhao, if you trust me, let me help you."
"You help me?"
Yang Zhao laughed at himself, not knowing what he was thinking. "Your Highness Prince Cheng is already in a difficult situation, how can he help me? Besides, I don't trust the royal family. I can save my father and brother by myself."
After saying that, Yang Zhao was about to leave.
Mo Chen looked at her stubborn back, a glint in his eyes as he said, "Then how do you want to save her? Do you still want to go find the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion? Or do you want to find the Pavilion Master of the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion?"
Yang Zhao ignored him and didn't even turn his head.
It was not until she heard his next sentence that she stopped abruptly.
He said, "Did you know that the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion is actually the Black Armor Army?"
"What did you say?"
Yang Zhao turned back in disbelief, "Black Armor Army?"
"yes."
Mo Chen looked at her and said word by word, "The Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion is the Black Armor Army, and the Pavilion Master of the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion... is my seventeenth uncle, known to the world as the King of Wings, Mo Junran."
Yang Zhao was stunned.
For the first time, that face that had never shown any major emotion showed astonishment, surprise, shock, and then a wave of anger at being deceived...
"How is that possible!"
Although she expressed her emotions subtly, it was clear enough for Mo Chen to see.
"I only just learned about this, but it's true." Mo Chen stepped forward, his eyes softening. "A Zhao, I've said before that you're my savior. I owe nothing to anyone in this life except you."
"So, I don't want you to be deceived or hurt by anyone."
"If you don't believe it, come with me and I will take you to see the truth." Mo Chen said as he stretched out his hand towards Yang Zhao.
Yang Zhao glanced at his hand but didn't reach out.
However, she still followed him.
After passing through a secret passage in a rockery, Mo Chen brought her to a hidden courtyard, and then he took her around.
Soon Yang Zhao stopped and asked with a frown, "Isn't this the Royal Courtyard?"
That's why she recognized it.
It was because she had come in once that night when Eunuch Wen led the way, and it was also on that night that she was tricked into soaking in perfume.
Mo Chen heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes and said: "This was indeed the Royal Court before, but later when the Yiwang Palace was built, my father also expanded this Royal Court, so this is also the Yiwang Palace."
The place he converted from a separate courtyard into a royal palace was actually the deserted courtyard next door that had been reduced to a useless place.
Small and shabby.
Speaking of which, he is definitely the most miserable prince in history.
There was a flash of murderous intent in Mo Chen's eyes.
But when he looked up, he turned gentle and kind again: "Come on, I'll take you to see the real Wing King."
