away from the heart

Chapter 104
Ever since the sun rose, Chuyue had been sitting by the bed, looking out the window obsessively.Outside the window, the vegetation is verdant and full of life, but if he doesn't come, her heart will always be cloudy and rainy.She looked back again and again in disappointment, and couldn't help looking up again and again with expectation.

After waiting for an unknown amount of time, a familiar figure finally came into view.The sun was scorching hot, and the dazzling sunlight poured down, which further outlined his handsome figure.In Chuyue's eyes, everything else seemed to disappear, only his figure approaching step by step remained in the world.In a trance, she was afraid that this was just a dream, and she would be frightened away in an instant, so she said cautiously and softly, "You, you are here."

Xue Yao in front of him did not disappear, and responded in a low voice: "Yes."

He is really here!A smile appeared on Chuyue's face.Her eyes were full of joy, and Xue Yao's heart ached from the scorching gaze.It was supposed to be the moment when the two love each other and talk to each other, but unexpectedly, the world has changed overnight.Seeing him so happy, she didn't know that what he planned in his mind was how to make good use of her pawn.

Guilt turned into an invisible hand and grabbed Xue Yao's throat. He turned his face away to avoid Chuyue's eyes, and said with difficulty: "I have important things to do these few days, and it is not convenient to take you out of the palace for the time being." It happens to be your birthday in three days, and then I will welcome you back in a splendid manner. I still have things to do, so I will leave first."

Xue Yao went out as if fleeing.Chuyue was stunned: "He...he just left without saying a word?"

"According to the servant girl, the general is sorry." Tao Yao came in with a wooden box inlaid with gold and jade in his hand, and snickered, "No, even though he left, he left this here. Let's open it quickly." have a look!"

Chuyue raised her hand to open the lid of the box, and couldn't help but gasped.Inside the wooden box lay a set of crimson butterfly-colored dresses, which could be seen to be exquisitely crafted.Especially the layer of gauze covering the outside is really like a light smoke enveloping it, against the crescent moon thinly outlined by the golden thread, it is dazzling.Tao Yao was stunned: "This is Yanying Yarn from Gaochang Kingdom? This is a treasure that is hard to find! It seems that although the general doesn't say anything, he has put a lot of thought into it in secret!"

Chuyue's heart was filled with honey, but she pretended to say: "This bright red smoked shadow gauze looks good, but it's too ostentatious to wear it out..."

"My servant thinks so too." Tao Yao nodded seriously, and made a gesture to take the wooden box away, "Since that's the case, this servant will return the things and say that the princess doesn't like it."

Chuyue hurriedly picked up the dress and protected it in her arms: "Who said I don't like it anymore! It's rare that Xue Yao has a heart, so I... I have no choice but to accept it reluctantly."

In the dark room, the man in black held the cold hand of the woman in the coffin, and said to Tang Ben: "Since the last time I failed to assassinate Princess Chuyue, the Ouchi guards have protected her extremely tightly. Xue Yao entered the palace and became the commander of the guards." , I can’t even get close to her. Originally, my plan was to make Xue Yao suspect that Xue Mu was killed by the emperor. He had a rift with Princess Chuyue, so naturally he had no intention of protecting her anymore. But I didn't expect that Xue Yao not only didn't feel resentment in his heart, but also said that he wanted to take Princess Chuyue to Lingxi Garden and hold a big birthday for her.

"The palace and Xue's residence are not easy to start with. Now that Xue Yao is going to take Princess Chuyue out of the palace, it is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It's just..." Tang Ben glanced at the man in black and hesitated, "Big brother, little brother always Do you think it is too coincidental for Xue Yao to act like this?"

"Are you worried that he set up a trick to lure you out? It's not that I haven't thought about it, but... I can't wait anymore." He gently rolled up the woman's sleeves. There was a way to keep her body intact, and bruises had already appeared on her skin, spreading all the way to her wrist as white as frost and snow.His heart tightened, and he said resolutely, "Lingxiyuan is not Xue Yao's own base after all, and he can't set up heavy guards. This time, you bring everyone together and go out together, and you must capture Princess Chuyue!"
