away from the heart

Chapter 132 The Envoy from Xizhao 3
In Xue Yao's arms, Chuyue's expression relaxed, but a tear slowly leaked from the corner of her eyes.Xue Yao relaxed, buried his head and gently kissed away the teardrop: "Sleep in peace, I am your pillow. With me by your side, you don't have to be afraid of anything."

The shallow but gentle kiss, carrying his unique killing aura, dispelled the nightmare in an instant, and Chuyue's breathing calmed down.Xue Yao looked at her quietly, feeling in his heart: The matter of the birthstone is really like a fairy tale, but he didn't expect it to be true.And she used such a precious No. 11 prophecy on herself, so absurd, but so solemn, he suddenly thought of the group of assassins who were chasing after Chuyue, is it related to this matter?

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard the sound of someone falling to the ground outside, followed by the faint sound of pushing the door.Xue Yao's expression moved, he gently put down Chuyue, and sneaked into the dark to hide his figure.

A man in black sneaked in, walked straight to Chuyue's bed, and lifted the bed curtain.Xue Yao stepped out, raised his sword and pointed at the opponent's vitals: "Who are you?"

"General Xue?" The other party was not afraid at all, and raised his hand to take off the black scarf covering his face, but it was Dong Shi, the national teacher.

Dong Shi was full of surprise: "General, this... already knew about the birthstone, and he did not hesitate to resist the decree. He was accompanying the princess to prevent her from dreaming? I thought that only me and Lord Shun would care about the princess's backlash. If I had known that the general was here , I don’t need to make a trip in vain.”

Xue Yao put away the sword: "I heard from Chuyue earlier, thanks to the help of the national teacher for all these years, the emperor has never known about the birthstone."

Dong Shi smiled: "Chuyue is the only blood of the master. I should take care of her. Since the general is here, I can rest assured that this is a nourishing golden pill. You might as well use it for the princess. Among the eunuchs outside the door If you are drugged, you won’t remember what happened tonight, the general just needs to leave before dawn.”

Dong Shi turned and left, Xue Yao stared at his back, pinched the golden pill in his hand, his eyes were deep.

With the first ray of morning light appearing in the sky, Chuyue woke up and turned around, and at a glance, she saw a few drops of crystal water hanging on the flowers and leaves beside the bed.Listening to the movement, Tao Yao walked around the eunuch who was still sleeping at the door, came in anxiously and asked, "Princess, are you okay?"

"I didn't dream last night..." Chuyue stared blankly at the drops of water, then turned to Taoyao and asked, "Where's Xue Yao?"

Tao Yao's eyes wandered, he hesitated for a long time, "General...General he didn't come..."

Chuyue raised the corners of her mouth and pointed to the magnolia on the window sill, "Someone has watered it. Except for Xue Yao, no one will take care of flowers and plants so diligently."

Seeing that Taoyao couldn't hide it, she scratched her head in embarrassment, "This can be discovered by the princess. In fact, the general forbade him to say it. He said that you have already divorced. It is not ethical to share the same bed."

Chuyue murmured, "It really is him."

"The princess woke up last night?!"

"No," Chuyue shook her head, "It's just that someone pulled me out of the dream in a blur, but I didn't have the strength to wake up."

"Then the princess can continue to pretend, otherwise...according to the general's temperament, I'm afraid he won't be able to protect the princess because of ethics."

Chuyue's eyes suddenly became firm, and she shook her head vigorously.

"I won't let him take this kind of risk for me again, and I won't let my father bully me like this again."

"Then... what is the princess' plan?" Tao Yao couldn't figure out what Chuyue was thinking.

Chuyue smiled slyly.

"Thirty-six strategies, the best policy is to go."

On the side of the martial arts hall is another scene.

As soon as Luo Ji crossed the threshold of the martial arts hall, he saw the disciples in the courtyard rushing past in twos and threes. Those who are usually slovenly today even shaved their beards and washed their jackets.

Luo Ji casually stopped a little junior who was running towards the inner courtyard in a panic, and asked, "I see that the atmosphere in the martial arts hall is different today, what are you?"

"Go to the martial arts competition!" The junior brother replied simply and neatly.

"Contest?" Luo Ji asked suspiciously.

"That's right! Senior Sister Nannu is competing in the martial arts gym to pick someone today—I don't want to tell you, I will hurry to line up, and I won't be able to get the number if it is too late." After finishing speaking, the junior brother disappeared in a flash, leaving Luo Ji alone in a daze Standing where he was, he thought for a long time before he recovered.

"What? Martial arts competition? Selection? Could it be recruiting relatives!"

In the martial arts hall, Su Nannan is dressed in a red dress, with a golden cloud pattern belt around her waist, black hair hanging down her waist, standing with a sword, her heroic posture does not lose the femininity of a woman.Under the arena, all the disciples were well-dressed and dignified.
