away from the heart

Chapter 225
Xue Yao hurried on the road, not knowing what the situation in the palace was like right now.Chuyue sat behind Xue Yao, tightly wrapped her wrist around his waist during the bumps, and the two were worried but clinging to each other.

Just as he was at the gate of the palace, Xue Yao tightened the reins suddenly, "Woo--", the horse stood up with its two front legs lifted.Chuyue swayed left and right, stuck her head out to know what was going on ahead, but saw Na Xi riding a fierce horse across the gate of the palace, with an angry expression on her face.

Na Xi pointed at Xue Yao with a horsewhip, and said with a sneer: "It's such a time, and you actually want to take her to die with you. It's really sincere. Do you want me to send you off again?" He raised the saber in his hand.

"I don't kill women and children, don't force me to do it."

Naxi nodded approvingly, "Don't kill women and children, right? Well, I will let you break the precept." Then he stabbed Chuyue.

Xue Yao swung his sword to block it, and a sword brushed Na Xi's neck, only to hear a crisp sound, and the longevity lock fell to the ground.

"This is... Brother Ning's stuff." Chuyue recognized the longevity lock.

Na Xi was startled, that cynical voice echoed in his mind again.

"...Little girl, you actually refused to shed a single tear for me until your death."

"...Xiao Niangpi, you must live a long life in the future."

The Longevity Lock had been covered with dust on the ground, Naxi picked it up, blew on it, and said viciously to Chuyue: "Shut up."

"Stop, stop!"

Chuyue was awakened by a familiar voice, and she quickly got off her horse: "Taoyao!"

Taoyao ran all the way, clutching her stomach and gasping for breath: "Princess, King Ning, King Ning is still alive, it was Dong Shi who deceived people with fake death medicine, Miss Su asked me to secretly feed him the antidote , when he was in a coma, he was still calling your name."

"What? How is it possible?" Na Xi was stunned, and the longevity lock in his hand fell again with a "snap".

Tao Yao put his three fingers together and made an oath, "I swear, he is still in the hall. When the masters ran for their lives, they thought he was dead. No one believed my words. If I don't go, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on." gone."

Na Xi hesitated for a moment, clenched the longevity lock in his hand, and gave Xue Yao a hard look, "Let me spare your life." Then he left quickly.

"Brother Ning is really alright?"

Tao Yao nodded, "I came here specially to wait for you, I know the situation in the palace, don't waste your time, come with me."

"Why did you do this? Why didn't you run for your life?" Chuyue held Taoyao's hand, full of worry.

Tao Yao showed the jade bracelet on her wrist, and said with a smile: "I treasure the bracelet you gave me from Lord Shun. This bracelet has the blessings of Concubine Jing, and it can ward off disasters. What's the use of slaves?" So scary."

"You idiot." Chuyue nodded Taoyao's forehead and smiled gratifiedly.
