The tyrant only favors the alluring concubine

Chapter 162
"I won't put my life in their hands." Xiao Ninglan said calmly, leaning her back against the cold stone wall, staring at Yan Xiaoyu intently.

Yan Xiaoyu walked towards the entrance of the cave with some hesitation. Looking at the dangling rope at the entrance of the cave, she felt overwhelmed, forgiving that they would not dare to murder the princess. Holding the rope, she shouted to the top, "Hold on tight, I will Come up now..."

In the thick fog, Yan Xiaoyu raised her head, she couldn't see the sun, and she couldn't see a figure. She looked back at Xiao Ninglan, wondering if it was her own illusion. At this moment, she felt that Xiao Ninglan was a little lonely, and she grasped tightly. He grabbed the rope and pulled it hard three times, which meant that she was ready and they could pull her up.

Fang Han stood on the edge of the cliff with a long spear in silver armor and said coldly, "Lady, come up, be careful, if there is any mistake, we can't afford to go around."

Everyone nodded, the rope was not very heavy, but the fog was so deep that they couldn't see how far the rope went down to the cave entrance, and they couldn't see the person on the other end of the rope.

Halfway through the pull, there was a "click" sound from the rope. It seemed that corroded rope powder was falling down the cliff. Everyone was shocked and stopped pulling the rope. Fang Han frowned, "What are you stopping for? Keep pulling..."

Everyone glanced at each other, and continued to pull the rope, and finally it was overwhelmed. The rope broke completely when it was halfway up.

"General Fang, the princess has fallen off the cliff..." Everyone was terrified and looked at Fang Han in a state of bewilderment. Fang Han didn't speak, but turned around and walked towards the inn where he was stationed.

Yan Xiaoyu was at the entrance of the cave, her face pale. She saw the stone tied to the rope fall off the cliff with her own eyes. She had never offended anyone in the palace, and she didn't know why Fang Han wanted her to die. She couldn't believe it. Looking at the floating clouds at the entrance of the cave, his expression was dull.

"They didn't want to kill you. Their goal was me, and you were just troubled by me." Xiao Ninglan smiled and patted Yan Xiaoyu's shoulder as a sign of comfort.

"Why do they want to kill you? You are His Royal Highness, aren't they afraid of killing you?" Yan Xiaoyu trembled her soft lips. It was the first time she saw the cruelty of court battles, and she couldn't accept it for a while. If she hadn't hesitated at the last moment , did not tie the boulder to the hemp rope, then the person who died would be her.

"In the struggle for power, there is no reason to kill someone. They send someone to assassinate me almost once a month, and I'm used to it." Xiao Ninglan looked at the cave entrance with the blood-stained sun indifferently. dense fog.

"Why didn't you fight back? Why didn't you arrest the person who assassinated you?" Yan Xiaoyu stared at Xiao Ninglan in disbelief. She had been married to him for a year and never knew that his life was so dangerous.

"There is no evidence at all. If we act rashly, we will only give them a chance to bite back." Xiao Ninglan seemed unwilling to talk more, stood up, and patted the hay on her body, "Let's go, they should have already withdrawn, let's go from another direction go out."

Yan Xiaoyu stared at Xiao Ninglan's back in a daze. She had been married to him for a year, and she saw much less than ordinary couples, but much more than his unfavored concubines.

She found that she had never understood the life of His Highness the Crown Prince in the East Palace, nor had she ever understood the true feelings of her nominal husband. In fact, he was just a poor man.

When Xiao Ninglan led her to the depths of the cave, she turned her head to look at her bare calves, fell silent for a while, took off her outer shirt and handed it to her, "Wrap up your wound, we are going to swim out of the water go out."

Yan Xiaoyu took his shirt and was stunned for a while, only to realize that the constant "tick-tick" in the cave was water dripping from a stalactite, and the water below had gathered into a puddle.

Xiao Ninglan moved away the stones in the puddle, and the water gradually spread. He turned his head and smiled at her, "The tide is high. If I guessed correctly, there should be a waterfall near here. Are you good at water?"

Yan Xiaoyu opened her mouth wide, she is an out-and-out landlubber, when Xiao Ninglan saw her idiot expression, she rolled her eyes helplessly, then reached out to her, "Come here, hide in my arms, hold your breath, We swam over and were washed directly off the cliff bottom by the waterfall."

Yan Xiaoyu wrapped his clothes around the wound on his leg indiscriminately, then hid in his arms obediently, wrapped his arms around his neck, and asked worriedly, "How long do I have to hold my breath, I can't... "

Before she finished speaking, Xiao Ninglan had already plunged into the water with her in his arms, unexpectedly there was another world under the puddle, Yan Xiaoyu didn't dare to breathe, and could only let him hold her and swim to the source of the water.

When she couldn't help but want to breathe, Xiao Ninglan bowed his head to breathe out to her, but to her, it was no different from kissing, his thin lips swallowed the air in her mouth, and he was reluctant to leave for a long time.

The lips of the two finally separated in a sharp slide. The deafening sound of the waterfall impacted their bodies like rags. Xiao Ninglan hugged Yan Xiaoyu tightly. Yan Xiaoyu had the urge to vomit blood under the huge impact. Both hands tightly wrapped around Xiao Ninglan's neck, as if holding on to the last driftwood in his life, unwilling to let go.

"Yan Xiaoyu, Yan Xiaoyu, wake up..." Xiao Ninglan patted Yan Xiaoyu's cheeks, his whole body was wet, and when he looked back, the waterfall was as high as a hundred feet. He didn't even notice it before. There is such a big waterfall here.

Yan Xiaoyu woke up leisurely, spit out a few sips of water, looked at the dazzling sunlight, under the sun, there were floating clouds moving, Xiao Ninglan's knife-cut facial features were covered with a layer of water mist, thick and curly eyelashes still hung a few Dripping, she sat up slowly, her clothes were wet, and she said with a pale and pretty face, "When we go back, find an excuse and execute Fang Han!"

When the two returned to the inn drenched in water, everyone was taken aback, only Fang Han, calm and composed, bowed and pleaded guilty to Xiao Ninglan, as if he was the one who almost killed Yan Xiaoyu on the edge of the cliff Not him at all.

Yan Xiaoyu snorted coldly, and gave Fang Han a contemptuous look. Fang Han acted as if he hadn't seen him, and said to Xiao Ninglan with cupped fists, "Your Highness, when you disappeared last night, [-] tons of food and grass were also stolen. !"

Xiao Ninglan frowned, and looked at Fang Han sternly, "What do you mean by theft?" "Your Highness, almost at the same time as you disappeared, food and grass also disappeared without a sound, and all our guards were drugged, and none survived. "Fang Han replied in a deep voice.

Yan Xiaoyu jumped up, almost pointing at Fang Han's nose and cursing, "You were the one who guarded the food and grass last night, so you must be the one guarding and stealing!"

"Xiaoyu, don't talk nonsense!" Xiao Ninglan said in a deep voice, obviously at this time, the two were already standing on the same front.

"Your Highness, what should we do now? Ting Wei, who followed all the way, intends to report the truth to the emperor, but I have already suppressed him!" Fang Han looked at Xiao Ninglan calmly, and there was no ripple in his deep eyes.

Xiao Ninglan sighed, "You don't need to suppress it, just report it, it's my negligence, and I won't shirk my responsibility!"

Yan Xiaoyu took Xiao Ninglan's arm, "Hey, the theft of [-] dans of food and grass is no small matter!"

Xiao Ninglan glanced back at her, and found that her handsome face was indeed worried from the bottom of her heart. Her handsome face was slightly moved, and Fang softly said, "Don't worry, Father will be able to tell right from wrong!"

He didn't speak any more, just went back to the room to change clothes, Yan Xiaoyu also went back to her own room, the whole thing, the more she thought about it, the more wrong it became, first she found the rice at the back of the inn, then she found Xiao Ninglan hidden in the latrine, and then It was meeting the man in black, and finally someone wanted to kill her and Xiao Ninglan.

She snapped her fingers, she couldn't calculate the account no matter what, suddenly thought of a possibility, the belt of her clothes was not fastened, she rushed into Xiao Ninglan's room, Xiao Ninglan was changing clothes, when she saw her coming in, she hurriedly turned her back, While wearing a belt, he said coldly, "What are you doing? How decent is this?"

Yan Xiaoyu hates others to say "what is the proper way", she was said by her father before, then by the queen, and now it's Xiao Ninglan's turn to say it, she tied her skirt indiscriminately, turned to him, and said slyly, "I know, you must have planned the matter of food and grass!"

Xiao Ninglan's complexion changed drastically, his handsome and cold face was instantly covered with frost, and his voice was cold, "Don't talk nonsense, otherwise, you will cause trouble to your upper body!"

"I didn't talk nonsense. You must have known in advance that someone was going to buy food and grass, so you hid in the latrine, and then I accidentally broke through it, and attracted the man in black. In order to save me, you had to give up food and grass, right? ?" Yan Xiaoyu squinted at Xiao Ninglan, raised her index finger, and looked like I was very smart.

Xiao Ninglan breathed a sigh of relief, rolled her eyes and looked at Yan Xiaoyu, nodded and said, "Yes, you are so smart, you guessed right, you hurry out, I want to change clothes!"

While talking, Xiao Ninglan pushed Yan Xiaoyu out of the door, and Yan Xiaoyu screamed, "Don't push me, your clothes have been changed, let's discuss the countermeasures and see how to get the food and grass back..."

The door closed with a bang, Yan Xiaoyu looked at the closed door and wrinkled her nose aggrievedly, what's the big deal?Isn't it just one hundred thousand dans of grain and grass?With the wisdom of a little girl in the 21st century, she will definitely be able to find out.

Back in his room, the first thing he saw was the man in red lying on his bed. The man's peach blossom eyes were slanted, his hands were resting on his head, and he was staring at Yan Xiaoyu carefully with interest.

Yan Xiaoyu closed the door of her room with a frightened "bang". After paying attention for a long time, she found that no one noticed her room, so she breathed a sigh of relief and walked to Yun Ziyou's side, and said, "Master Yun, you What are you doing again?"

"Your face is flushed, your skin is smooth and your flesh is smooth, and you look like you are full of enthusiasm. Say, what did you do wrong last night?" Yun Ziyou sat up and looked at Yan Xiaoyu maliciously.

Yan Xiaoyu blinked, and sat beside Yun Ziyou, "Master Yun, what are you talking about? I was held hostage by the men in black and almost died last night. How can I do anything bad!"

Yun Ziyou squeezed Yan Xiaoyu's face, gritted his teeth, "Don't pretend to be confused, which man did you fool around with yesterday? It's so cool, isn't it? Hmm?"

Tears welled up in Yan Xiaoyu's eyes, and Yun Ziyou's "Aiyo" screamed, "It hurts, it really hurts..."

Yun Ziyou increased his strength, "Tell me, which man was it last night? You dared to steal someone behind my back, are you tired of working?"

Yan Xiaoyu almost cried, she is not his wife, what do you mean stealing someone behind his back?Patted his hand, "No, really not! I'm still a big girl!"

Yun Ziyou approached her, sniffed at her like a dog, and said distrustfully, "Then what happened last night?"
