After returning home, the Crown Princess can no longer hide her vest!

"How can you still laugh?" Prince Pingkang paced back and forth in front of them with his hands behind his back, looking annoyed.

"Now we have fallen into the hands of the enemy, we are at the mercy of the enemy. It's really... Oh, if they come to kill us, we won't even have a place to hide."

Huo Zeyuan comforted him, "Prince, don't panic."

Ye Wuchen almost jumped up and down, "How can I not be panicked? What is this person trying to do? Don't tell me you didn't see it."

"He..." Ye Wuchen lowered his voice and approached his three unfortunate companions, "He made such a big scene, with thousands of poisonous people holding muskets. What do you think he wants to do?"

“Now the entire Pingjiang Prefecture, from the prefect to the common people, is under his control. He is going to... rebel.” Ye Wuchen’s voice became even lower.

He kept muttering, "It's over, it's over, now we are being held in the hands of the rebels. Given the emperor's character, there is no way he would negotiate with them for our sake. Even if the Sixth Prince, no, the Crown Prince was here, the emperor would not back down even a step. Not to mention us, insignificant little people!"

Huo Zeyuan wanted to help him sit down at the table, but Ye Wuchen brushed him away with one hand, "Listen to me, this is not the worst. The most suffocating thing is that crazy... Chu Lanyi. Do you think he has cultivated so many poisonous people? Will it be..."

Ye Wuchen lowered his voice again, almost leaning close to Mu Huaizhi and Lu Qian, and whispered, "Will they inject that fusion toxin into us?"

"No way!" Huo Zeyuan was shocked.

Ye Wuchen slapped his shoulder and gritted his teeth, "It's already this hour, why do you still believe in that lunatic? There's nothing he can't do."

“Even if they don’t bite us to death…” Ye Wuchen pulled his neck, winked and whispered, “If they give us some of that fusion toxin, we’ll be finished!”

"No." Mu Zhao looked at his weird look and couldn't help but laugh and cry.

"Huaizhi, you are a prisoner just like us, how can you be so confident?" Ye Wuchen got angry when he saw his handsome face smiling brightly, "How can you still laugh? How can you laugh!"

"He wouldn't dare." Mu Zhao was speechless. Seeing that the boy was indeed a little afraid, he quickly explained, "Chu Lanyi is afraid of the consequences and doesn't dare to kill us."

"Because he knows better than anyone that if he kills us or poisons us, he and Lang'er...will never be able to turn back."

Ye Wuchen suddenly realized what was going on after hearing this. He pounded his fist slightly and whispered, "Yes, yes, you are right. He doesn't dare! He has to take Junior Sister into consideration."

"If he really poisons us and turns us into mindless poisonous people, he and his junior sister will never be able to return."

Huo Zeyuan nodded, "Yes, Linlang will definitely come to rescue us."

After he finished speaking, he saw that the three of them were all looking at him, and he felt awkward for a moment, "I, I just thought that my cousin would definitely come..."

Ye Wuchen patted him and said, "Don't always count on Linlang to save us, Huaizhi will be unhappy! So, let's find a way to save ourselves. Huaizhi, do you have any good ideas?"

"Why don't you run out first and try to mobilize nearby troops to rescue us." Huo Zeyuan said, and seeing the other two nod, he continued boldly, "It will be fine if you run out alone."

Mu Zhao shook his head. "I talked to him. He should agree to let us return to Beijing."

"What?" Ye Wuchen was shocked. "How could that madman be so kind? What did you talk to him about? You didn't sacrifice anything."

Seeing the three people looking at him with strange eyes, Mu Huaizhi was speechless, "I didn't sacrifice anything. I just told him that it's useless for you to catch us. Lang'er will come later and you will have to let us go. It's better to do us a favor and let us go now, so that it will be easier to talk to Lang'er later."

"Did he really agree?"

Mu Huaizhi curled the corners of his lips and said, "You said you need to consider it, but I think you can let us go soon." "Yes, yes, yes. Instead of leaving us here and letting Linlang make a big fuss, it's better to just let us go. This way, you can urge us to leave as soon as possible and prevent us from meeting Linlang!"

As they were talking, the door of the compartment was violently pushed open and several burly men with fleshy faces walked in.

A middle-aged man who looked like a scholar followed into the room with a smile and bowed politely to the few people, "Prince, Prince, and both of you, you can all go."

Ye Wuchen, who was tense all over, felt a little relaxed when he heard the words and subconsciously glanced at Mu Huaizhi.

The latter nodded calmly as before and walked out the door first.

Huo Zeyuan was on high alert, fearing that the other party would take advantage of their unpreparedness and use despicable tricks. As a result, the scholar sent them all the way to the river without any bad intentions.

Ye Wuchen's eyes flickered as he stared at the fairly sturdy medium-sized ship in front of him, "Is this ship going to take us away?"

"That's right." The scholar smiled and nodded, bowing again, "Please go in, everyone. If you don't trust the boatman, you can hire two more nearby that you like."

"It's just that it's getting late. You have to leave the shore as soon as possible. After all, it will be more inconvenient to sail after it's completely dark."

"Oh, thank you very much." Ye Wuchen also bowed to the scholar and winked at Lu Qian and Huo Zeyuan.

"Well... it's okay, let's get on the boat. Since Master Chu let us go, he won't make things difficult for us with the boatman. I believe the people he found must be very professional." Mu Zhao signaled with his eyes that the three people should get on the boat one after another, and waved to the scholar who was looking at us from the shore.

The scholar bowed and watched the ship sail away with a smile, and the smile on his face gradually faded.

Feeling the pressure coming from beside him, the scholar turned around and saluted respectfully to Chu Lanyi, "Your Highness, you really shouldn't have let these people leave."

"Especially Mu Huaizhi, since he can't be used by us, we should get rid of him as soon as possible. Otherwise, he will become a great threat to Southern Chu in the future."

Chu Lanyi's eyes were as cold as water. He looked deeply at the night that was sweeping over him without saying a word.

The night was dim, but the boat was sailing very steadily.

Ye Wuchen had been nervous for a while, but as he saw they were getting farther and farther away from Pingjiang Prefecture, he couldn't help but relax a little.

"Do you think he could be so kind as to let us go like this?"

Mu Huaizhi chuckled.

"Don't laugh." Ye Wuchen was terrified. "I get scared when I see you laugh. If you have anything to say, just say it. We can't guess it."

"I think there's a good chance that something might happen halfway through, and the ship will collapse."

Ye Wuchen opened his mouth wide but didn't utter a word for a long time.

"Then you still let us go?"

"Don't panic, Huaizhi will definitely find a way."

At the same time, Miss Yu walked ashore without recognizing her relatives. (End of this chapter)
