Forced to marry as a concubine: the prince is too presumptuous

Chapter 195 The Night
Carriage, continue to move forward, the night is falling backwards, and it is almost to Xiaoyao Wangfu.

Gently lift the curtains and watch the lights flickering outside the car window. The Lantern Festival is coming. In fact, every household has prepared lanterns and hung them in front of the door on the fourteenth day of the first lunar month. However, there are not many people admiring the lanterns. Have to wait until tomorrow.

But tomorrow...

A few black shadows came into Ximo's sight at this moment, and the coachman flicked his whip forcefully, but the horse still stopped and whimpered and whirled on the spot, "Little Master Lan , The horse's shoe seems to be pierced by something, you don't want to leave without saying anything, little master Lan, walk one more street and you will arrive at the palace, how about..."

She smiled, supported Zhixia's hand and got out of the carriage, "It's okay for us to walk around." When she came, she also walked to Xiren Villa.

But when the boots fell on the ground, the black shadows that he had just seen in the car window unconsciously swayed in his mind.

"Zhixia, let's go."

The footsteps were fast, and the people who sent him back to the house also surrounded her tightly, but her heart was beating extremely hard.

"Shua shua shua", when she got to a darker place, a figure flickered in front of her eyes, and what she was afraid of happened. Someone came, maybe to rob her, like those men in black in the palace who wanted to take her away Same……

Ximo stood where she was. To be honest, she didn't know whether these people were enemies or friends. If they were enemies, she would act recklessly as in the past. She might as well stay in Xiaoyao Palace. If they were friends, then there was no need to rush ,is not it?
"Miss, this way." Seeing that those men in black were about to get close to them, Zhixia also found out, took Ximo's hand and backed away, and the people who were protecting her suddenly surrounded Ximo. In an instant, the streets were filled with the smell of swords being drawn.

"Stop, who are you?" Yan Mo's man yelled. Hearing the loud voice, he knew that he had some skills. Compared with those guards in the palace, he was much stronger. I'm afraid, this time it was a couple. A duel.

"Take people's money, do things for them, leave them behind, and you can leave." The man in black at the head was also polite before fighting, and it was obvious that he was more or less polite to Yan Mo's people.

"Impossible. The reason why we escorted Lan Xiaozhu all the way is because we are afraid that she will meet you people and get out of the way. Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude."

"Leave the person behind." No one was being polite, they had already rushed over while speaking, and the flying blades were shining brightly in the night, but it made those who watched tremble with fear.

Zhixia was always in front of Ximo, kept backing away, and stayed away from those men in black. Yan Mo's men fought with the men in black. Seeing it, it was hard to tell the winner, " Miss, let's sneak back to the palace from there." There is only one street left to reach the palace, if you want to sneak back, it is actually very easy.

"Wait." She didn't want to leave right away, she wanted to know whether these men in black belonged to King Qingling, and also wanted to know why they came to take her away.

However, just when Ximo was about to figure out everything, the carriage driver who was originally driving the carriage rushed over, "Zhixia, let's escort Little Master Lan away together." As he spoke, he stared at the group of men in black with piercing eyes , obviously, the coachman also received a heavy order from Yan Mo to protect her.

"I want to know why they came to rob me?"

"Miss, the prince said that he had received a secret report a long time ago, saying that people from the palace were coming to kidnap the lady. It seems that the news is good. Miss, these people want to take you hostage, that's all. Miss, let's go " Zhixia urged desperately, pulling Ximo to leave, behind her, the sound of beating and killing became louder and louder, she really wanted to know if those people belonged to King Qingling, but the people from Xiaoyao Palace She was not given a chance at all, but in a short time, many servants had already rushed out of Xiaoyao Wangfu. This time, the man in black, who had no advantage in the first place, was even more disadvantaged. Seeing this, Ximo She also gave up asking about the purpose of these men in black, because she was still anxious to go back to Xiaoyao Palace, Xiang Jinchen was still waiting for her, and she had to go back.

More and more people came, Yan Mo had already guessed that he would meet these people, "Zhixia, let's go."

The coachman cleared the way, Zhi Xia pulled her back quickly, retreated outside a wall, and then entered the Xiaoyao Palace through a hidden corner door, those people chose to rob her too close to the Xiaoyao Palace, maybe they just discovered She, so, had no choice but to rob, but didn't think that Yan Mo's people were smarter and prepared earlier than the people in the palace.

Panting heavily, leaning against the wall, Ximo was really exhausted from running.

"Miss, are you alright?"

Shaking her head, "I'm fine." But having said that, she still felt very tired, very tired, "Zhi Xia, take a rest before leaving." She was very tired, never tired before, probably because of the previous attack. Everything that Yan Mo did to her in the restaurant.

Thinking about it, she blushed a little.

After taking a breath, Ximo said embarrassedly: "Zhixia, let's go, I'm tired, go back and take a hot bath, I want to sleep." Back at this time, Xiang Jinchen must have known that she was out .

He must have been waiting impatiently, not knowing what Xiang Jinchen would do to him, but he must be doing it for her own good.

"Okay, miss, if you're tired, help me go." Maybe it's because of her reconciliation with Yan Mo that infected Zhixia, and Zhixia was also very attentive to her.

Back to Qingxin Xiaozhu from the small corner gate, it’s almost three o’clock, the weather is really cold, the hot water fills the tub, and when I took off all my clothes and stepped in, the hotness seemed to be washed away at once She was exhausted all over, she closed her eyes and leaned on the bathtub, she was really tired, "Zhixia, go to sleep, the palace will be very busy tomorrow, I will go to sleep after washing." Knowing that Xia had a good reason to leave, she must go to meet Xiang Jinchen tonight.

"Don't be afraid, I'll wait a little longer and the lady will wash up. I'll serve the lady to bed before leaving. This is what the prince told me to take good care of the lady."

Just listening, she blushed more and more, whether Yan Mo cared about her or worried about her.

In the bottom of her heart, all the entanglements were entangled in her heart, and she was conflicted whether to leave or not.

"It's okay, I've already washed it, and I'll go out to sleep after soaking for a while, Zhixia, you go down, I want to be alone." She was indeed upset, and there were dots all over her body. The bruise was red, and Zhixia kept guarding her, which made her quite uncomfortable, and she was even embarrassed to show her shoulders.

"Well then, miss, you go to bed earlier, although we have nothing to do tomorrow, but you can't stay here quietly, miss, I will wake you up early tomorrow morning."

"Well, you go down."

Only then did Zhixia leave, and the room became silent all of a sudden. Listening carefully to the wind outside the window, it seemed that it was still cold. Ximo slowly withdrew from the water, her body still aching. At night, she was like a tiger that would never run out of strength, but she was exhausted.

I found a dark homely dress to put on, I just don't want to attract attention, the Xiaoyao Palace is still very lively at night like this, many women and girls can't sleep, tomorrow, even if it's just a formality, but The entire palace will still be very busy and chaotic. Yanmo's concubine is the position that many women dream of, but after announcing that Tuo Rui is about to marry into the Xiaoyao Palace, she thought that no one would have such a position again. I just thought about it.

When the night got darker and the clapper was knocked three times, Zhixia in the outside room must have fallen asleep, Ximo wrapped a headscarf and quietly walked out of her room like a maid.

The flaming lanterns are connected one by one. If it was summer, she would have been spotted immediately, but it was winter, and she wore a lot of clothes and things, so her identity was somewhat concealed.

In the palace, it was still the same as during the day, people were busy in and out, and these people should not be able to sleep all night long.

However, that's also good, it won't be awkward for her to walk in the mansion. Her attire made people in the mansion think she was a girl.

Don't dare to walk too fast or too slow, for fear of attracting the attention of others.

It was only after leaving Qingxin Xiaozhu, and after turning a corner, a person came towards him. Although it was a little far away, Ximo's heart skipped a beat. It was Xiang Jinchen. Seeing that familiar figure, she was unconscious. He quickened his pace, he must have waited for a long time in front of her, and he quickly greeted her when he saw her coming.

As he got closer, a lowered male voice sounded, "Ximo, this way." He took her hand and led her into a small path in the mansion, standing behind a poplar tree , just a group of patrolling people walked by, Ximo stuck out her tongue, she thought Qingxin Xiaozhu didn't have any patrols in this mansion, but she didn't want to, she almost bumped into it, luckily Xiang Jinchen came timely.

"Ximo, go that way." Still holding her hand, she walked quickly, his hands were a little cold, he must have been waiting for her in the wind for a long time, and he felt apologetic in his heart.

"Jinchen, I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting for so long."

"It's good that you come back. In the future, you can't leave the house indiscriminately. If something happens, it's too late for you to regret it, Ximo. Now, many people want to catch you, even me, so I let you come see me."

"Are you going to arrest me too?" Xiang Jinchen's words sounded strange, "Jinchen, are you joking?" What's so good about her, she's just Yan Mo's concubine, or a miserable concubine, Since entering the mansion, he has never enjoyed any happiness.

"Ximo, shall I take you away?" Turning to a secluded place, Xiang Jinchen stopped suddenly, turned his head and said to her.
