The army that had been preparing for many years was at the gates of the city, but they had been unable to capture it for many days. The insiders arranged in the city now had no reaction at all, and he suddenly became a little impatient.
Although he is a "crown prince", his country has been destroyed after all. Except for the slightly stronger military force, he is almost becoming a bandit. If this move fails, he will no longer have the ability to fight in the future!
Now, facing this iron wall, he was unable to advance or retreat for a moment!
"It's bad, Your Highness! Today... all ten thousand elite troops were wiped out! That Ying Huaiji is a cunning villain. He had already sent troops from the surrounding areas to encircle and intercept our army from both sides! Now that all the elite troops have been lost, someone will surely reveal Your Highness's hiding place. I hope Your Highness will make plans and evacuate as soon as possible to save our lives!"
A few days later, bad news came again.
Upon hearing this, Prince Li shuddered all over, and was not surprised at all!
Retreat? Where to?! He'd been planning this for years, but he couldn't find the right opportunity to act. Fortunately, God had shown mercy and allowed Pingzhou to suffer a natural disaster. He had taken advantage of the chaos and should have had smooth sailing, but now he was trapped. Even if he tried his best to escape, from now on, everything was gone!
And, can you run away?!
Ying Huaiji was so well prepared, he must have already investigated everything thoroughly, that's why he could press forward step by step!
…
At this time, Ying Huaiji was in a good mood when he heard the good news, and immediately ordered a pursuit to take advantage of the victory.
"Your Highness, a letter came from the capital saying that...the daughter of the Xiao family has left the capital to travel." However, that night, his confidant delivered the news from the capital.
When Ying Huaiji heard this, his hands froze and his originally relaxed expression suddenly became much more tense.
The confidant's mood darkened as he saw this, and he immediately explained, "It's said... Miss Xiao was dissatisfied with the rumors spreading in the capital, so she left overnight. I heard that her whereabouts are unknown. Even the two masters of the Xiao family said that she was used to being free and unpredictable and didn't know when she would return. I guess... I guess she will return in a few years, when things have calmed down and no one remembers her."
No one remembers! ?
Once you meet someone like Xiao Cunyu, how can you forget him?
She has made up her mind not to come!
Ying Huaiji gritted his teeth. However, the overall situation in Pingzhou was only half settled at the moment. He had to stay for a few more days to stabilize the situation before returning to Beijing! But since this news had already reached him, it proved that Xiao Cunyu had already escaped!
She ran away!
He actually ran away!
Or when he was no longer in the capital, she left secretly without caring about our friendship!
Ying Huaiji's mind was confused and he was a little angry, but behind the anger he felt powerless and aggrieved. He knew what kind of person she was, but he didn't expect that Xiao Cunyu looked down on him from the beginning to the end!
He was indeed thinking of making her the Crown Princess when he returned to Beijing.
However, if she insisted on refusing, could he still tie her up and force her to marry?!
"Your Highness, please don't get yourself hurt by being angry..."
"Angry? I'm not angry!" Ying Huaiji's eyes were red. He held the cup tightly, trying hard to control the strength. After a moment, he even said slowly, "I know she doesn't like the rules in the capital. She can no longer live a carefree life! That's all!"
It definitely doesn't mean you look down on him!
“…” The confidant shrank his head.
"Then...should we send someone to capture him?"
Ying Huaiji was stunned, he really did want to.
But could he possibly keep Xiao Cunyu captive? Furthermore, the Xiao Cunyu he admired wasn't a caged bird; he was an eagle, a noisy little wild monkey, a carefree, carefree little bastard...
She doesn't have the reserve and dignity of a young lady, nor the ambition and aspirations of other young men. She hasn't changed since the first time they met. Is capturing such a person just to let her be tarnished?
