Chapter 199 He Can Only Cooperate
Mingxi immediately stepped forward, full of worry, and whispered, "I'm really worried about what he will do to you."
Mingxi's current appearance is very different from his original appearance. Mingxi, who is used to seeing a beautiful appearance, is a little uncomfortable now.
Lin Zhaoyue looked out the window and said, "He doesn't have the courage."
But as time goes by...it may not be the same anymore.
Mingxi took a look at the chopped stone bun, then took it and took over what Lu Chenzhou had done.
However, Lin Zhaoyue didn't eat much. After taking a few bites, she left the rest to Mingxi.
"By the way..." Ming Xi whispered to her while eating, "Your Highness, I noticed that Lu Chenzhou has always been wary of Su Changxue, and the relationship between the two is not very good now."
Lin Zhaoyue raised her eyebrows.
Lu Chenzhou is a suspicious person, although he trusts Su Changxue very much in the original plot.
But now it is clear that a rift has developed between the two.
It can be seen that Lu Chenzhou is very dissatisfied with Su Changxue because of her.
In addition, the strength displayed by Su Changxue during this journey probably also made him feel wary.
But he knew that he could not succeed without Su Changxue's help.
So he will not be an enemy of Su Changxue.
She remembered that the subtitles said that the reason why Su Changxue was willing to help Lu Chenzhou was because Lu Shenli Gu had a friendship with the Lu family.
Now it seems that it is more than just friendship.
Moreover, it was because of the secret that Su Changxue mentioned.
However, since he even told me this secret, then...
A gleam flashed across her eyes, and her gaze slowly turned outside.
During a short rest outside Baijiang City, perhaps because Su Changxue said she needed to walk around, Lu Chenzhou asked her to get off the carriage and walk around again.
Although Mingxi was supporting her, Lu Chenzhou was always following her closely.
Su Changxue was explaining something to his people, and occasionally looked up at Lin Zhaoyue.
She walked slowly, like a pine tree swaying in the wind, as if no storm could destroy her.
He suddenly thought of another man.
In fact, there was one thing he didn't tell her.
He also saw the fate of the Killing Star in another person.
And that person's murder had actually overshadowed Lu Chenzhou's.
If it were in the past, he would definitely help Lu Chenzhou get rid of this person.
I will also help him get rid of this woman.
But the gears of fate seemed to start turning again.
Everything is undetermined.
Lu Chenzhou began to avoid contact between Su Changxue and Lin Zhaoyue, and even stopped him from examining her physical condition.
Lin Zhaoyue still had a wound on her arm, and she only asked the maid beside her to change the bandage.
Su Changxue naturally sensed Lu Chenzhou's vigilance towards him.
He pretended not to know, his expression was calm, and he just did his job.
"Prince, the pursuers are coming." The subordinate hurried over to report.
Lu Chenzhou's eyes flashed with sarcasm, and he sneered: "Xiao Tingye is really a mad dog."
In fact, their people fought countless times along the way, and Xiao Tingye's people were like a killing machine.
Most of his men had already been killed.
If it weren't for the help of Su Changxue's men, the team Lin Zhaoyue was in would have been exposed long ago.
Lin Zhaoyue raised her eyebrows slightly, but glanced at Su Changxue who was feeding grass to the horse from a distance.
"Yue'er, he really went to great lengths for you." Lu Chenzhou's words were tinged with jealousy, but then the smile on his face brightened, but his eyes were filled with coldness. "It's a pity, though, that he will never see you again."
"Sir, they should have entered the territory of Xiling." Yinchuan said in a low voice.
Xiao Tingye gripped the reins tightly with his knuckles turning white, his eyes like cold ponds staring at the towering city in the distance.
Xiling, the hereditary fief of Marquis Xuanping, is also the place they rely on today.
At the beginning of the founding of Daxia, Taizu specially established the old system of fiefdoms to reward meritorious officials: without solid evidence of treason, the imperial army was not allowed to enter the marquis' fiefdom without permission.
This privileged right of autonomy was originally a century-old contract between the emperor and the princes, and was also the preferential treatment given to meritorious officials when they were crowned kings.
Over time, it was passed down.
But since the previous emperor, he realized that this preferential treatment was tantamount to raising a tiger to harm himself, so he began to deliberately reduce the army and control the autonomy of the fiefdom princes.
Gradually, the power of the imperial court eroded into the fiefdoms.
While Xiling seemed to be loyal to the imperial court over the years, he had actually been secretly gathering strength and recruiting soldiers.
They were afraid that the imperial court would take action against them, so they wanted to fight to the death.
However, they do not know that this behavior itself has crossed the line and they will be labeled as traitors sooner or later.
Now that she was in their hands, he naturally didn't dare to act rashly.
He knew what she wanted to do.
That day, she sent a red bird to deliver a message.
It's not about stopping him from chasing, but about making him bite madly.
She wasn't trying to get away.
But it seemed as if he was testing something.
If he guessed correctly, the person she wanted to test was that person.
I wanted to test how capable he was and whether he could bring them back to Xiling.
He almost bit them several times, but they were as cunning as foxes and managed to evade his pursuit every time.
She went to Xiling not just to find out the truth.
I am afraid--
It's for that person.
Since she chose to go to Xiling, she would not let him intercept her.
But he was left with no chance to catch up.
She had her own plans.
And after all this pursuit and fighting with the enemy.
It confirmed one thing for him.
She was testing that person's depth.
The thought that she would take such a risk for that man made him go crazy with jealousy.
But he still chose to cooperate.
In fact, he could only cooperate.
She is willing to cooperate with him and she trusts him, which shows that his position in her mind is different.
And this became the only medicine that could comfort him.
The Young Master of Shenli Valley...
There was a hint of coldness and amusement in his eyes.
The first fight gave him an unexpected surprise.
But next time, it may not be the same.
"Sir, what's next..." Yinchuan asked.
Xiao Tingye looked ahead with a serious look.
"Temporarily block the news of Princess Zhaohua being abducted to Xiling."
Yinchuan nodded, "Yes."
Now no one in the court knew that Princess Zhaohua had been abducted to Xiling.
Princess Zhaohua is of noble status. If people knew that she was abducted to Xiling.
I'm afraid there will be chaos in the court.
Before she was kidnapped, she had already made arrangements not to leak any information.
So now, except for the people in the princess's mansion, the emperor and Xiao Tingye's men, no one knew that she was kidnapped by Lu Chenzhou and taken to Xiling.
She had also made some arrangements in advance. Since she was kidnapped, news spread from the princess's mansion that Princess Zhaohua was recuperating in the mansion and would not attend court or see guests for the time being.
Everyone knew that Princess Zhaohua was stabbed by Lu Chenzhou, so there was no speculation about her recuperation.
He looked at the city ahead, his eyes dark. "The army will retreat and be divided into three groups stationed in the surrounding towns. Wait for orders at any time."
Yinchuan received the order and immediately went down to do it.
