Chapter 263
"Thank you, Prince Xie!" The city guard accepted it, saluting with a smile on his face.

Chu Qifeng just glanced at him indifferently, just as he was about to give orders to leave the city, there was another sound of horseshoes flying in the direction of the inner city behind him.

Everyone was stunned, and followed the prestige at the same time, but after a while, Chu Qiyan and his party also arrived.

"Master?" The guard at the gate of the city was greatly surprised, he was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly greeted him, "Is the son going out of the city at night?"

Chu Qiyan smiled slightly, but did not answer, but directly passed him, walked towards Chu Qifeng and said, "Qifeng!"

"Your Majesty!" Chu Qifeng nodded, and smiled back at him calmly, "I didn't expect to meet you here this evening!"

"Yeah, I didn't expect that either!" Chu Qiyan said, with a random glance at the carriageway following him, "Who is sitting in the car, leaving the city in the middle of the night?"

The matter of Tuoba Huai'an has passed, and the guards at the city gate have relaxed these few days, because it is the carriage of the East Palace, and the emperor's most important grandson personally led the team out, so the city guard had no intention at the beginning. Check carefully.

When Chu Qiyan mentioned it at this moment, he was afraid that his forehead would sweat, lest Chu Qiyan would make use of the topic——

Although it was not rumored that there was any rift between Chu Qifeng and Chu Qiyan, it was no secret that there was a discord between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and King Nanhe.

The city guard was afraid that he would be involved in the battle between the two families, so he immediately lowered his head and shut his mouth tightly.

Chu Qifeng didn't feel any discomfort because Chu Qiyan broke his intention. Hearing this, he just followed his gaze as usual and turned to look at the carriageway, "It's nothing, my mother and concubine after the new year I just contracted a cold and didn't get better, I was worried, so I brought some clothes and herbs to see her!"

"Oh, is that so? Is the side concubine sick?" Chu Qiyan curled her lips, lowered her head and stroked the horsewhip in her hand twice.

His tone was deliberately slow, and he sounded very careless at first glance.

Chu Qifeng looked at him with an unchanging gentle smile on his lips, but his eyes were extremely clear, undiminished.

At this time, if Chu Qiyan made a fuss, things would definitely break out immediately.

Both Li Lin and Jiang Liu were on full alert, not daring to take it lightly and wait for their master's orders or hints.

Here Chu Qiyan smiled, and then unexpectedly changed the subject, and said with emotion, "It seems that I will not have the opportunity to meet the side concubine in person. It just so happens that I have nothing to do today. It's dark and windy outside. Let's be your companion, let's go together!"

Chu Qifeng looked at him with a half-smile, unable to deny it.

Chu Qiyan didn't feel embarrassed, she just said, "Why? Inconvenient?"

"No!" Chu Qifeng said, letting out a breath slowly, "It's just that you know my concubine's temper, son, she has been practicing for many years, and she is not used to being disturbed by others, if she turns around and neglects your son—"

"That's okay!" Chu Qiyan was determined to go with him, and before he finished speaking, he interrupted, "There are troubles in and around the capital around this year, if it's really inconvenient for the side concubine to see me, it's okay, anyway. I can also be your companion when you go out at night, so it will be safer."

Chu Qifeng naturally knew that he came prepared, not to mention that it would not be good to delay at the city gate for a long time. After a little weighing in his mind, he could only compromise in the end, "Is it really not delaying you?"

"I just wanted to go to Fulaiju to drink!" Chu Qiyan pointed the whip in his hand to Fulaiju not far away.

Although both sides knew it was an excuse, but now, it seems that it is really useless to say more.

"It's hard for your kindness, my son, so I will be disrespectful." Chu Qifeng said, slightly curling the corner of her lower lip, and raised her hand to make way, "Then let's go together!"

"My cousin, Qifeng, you are too irritating." Chu Qiyan said, with a peaceful and calm smile, and took the lead in riding out of the city.

Chu Qifeng's group originally brought nearly [-] people, and with the addition of Chu Qiyan's people, the lineup was quite huge when they went to Cixiu Temple.

Watching the two "cousins" leave in an amicable manner, talking and laughing, a little soldier who had been huddled in the corner came out sighing, and said, "It is said that the relationship between the East Palace and the Nanhe Palace is not good. , it seems that these rumors are not entirely true."

The city guard gave him a white look, and scolded, "Is this something you should talk about? You don't want to die, do you?"

He certainly has more knowledge than the people below. The king of Kang and the prince of Nanhe seem to be amicable on the surface, but in fact, which sentence just now was not a conspiracy hidden in a smile?
"Take it!" The city guard shook his head thinking about it, took Jiang Liushang's silver ingot, took out a piece of broken silver from his waist, and threw it to the soldier, "Go to Fulaijuli to get two jugs of wine, Let the brothers warm up!"

"Okay!" The little soldier smiled happily, gave a long drink, and ran away.

Here Chu Qiyan and Chu Qifeng walked out of the city gate together, walked along the official road without a word, until they walked to a fork in the road seven miles away, Chu Qifeng slowly took the reins, turned to look at him and said, "You don't really want to go to Cixiu Temple with me, do you?"

Chu Qiyan kept her eyes slightly lowered and looked at the ground ahead, and she didn't look away when she heard the words, she just asked casually, "What's the matter? Don't you want to go to Cixiu nunnery?"

Chu Qifeng's eyes turned cold, and he let out a breath slowly: "If you have anything to say, you can say it clearly. Between you and me, do you still need to use such guessing tricks?"

Chu Qiyan smiled, and finally looked back at him from a distance.

Two people, looking at each other.

The smiles on the brows of their eyes disappeared invisibly in an instant, one was as cold as ice, and the other was as deep as the sea. There was an invisible sharp edge rising from all sides, covering each of their faces with a cloud of icy mist .

The purpose and intention of each other are clear at a glance, but no one has pointed it out.

After a long while, it was Chu Qiyan who looked away first, and looked at the carriage behind: "You know, I will not cause trouble with you in this place, and now I give you two options, either take this carriage Stay, I'll go where you want, and we'll go our separate ways, or—"

He said for a while, and when he looked back at Chu Qifeng, the corners of his lips curled up into a sneer smile again: "As I said at the gate of the city just now, I will go to Cixiu Temple with you, and then Personally escort you back to the East Palace, and make sure that your trip is safe!"

The emperor's pursuers were going for the guard of honor of the mission, but that line was destined to fail, no wonder Chu Qiyan was cautious——
