After the rebirth, the queen took the Meiqiang tragedy script

Chapter 18

Ye Qinghuai didn't know how long she ran.

She felt like her chest was filled with lead, making it very difficult for her to take every breath.The cold wind blew on her face, mixed with the smell of rice from nowhere, which made her legs weaker and weaker.

What's more frightening is that she has already lost her way.

There are many bends in the alleys of the West Market. Once you take the wrong road, you can easily lose the distinction between east, west, south, and north.

Ye Qinghuai was hiding and running around in these narrow alleys.Fortunately, she has good physical strength due to her riding and swordsmanship training in the past few years. In addition, she is tall and runs fast. After turning a few turns, the sound of chasing soldiers seems to have disappeared.

She stopped, looked back at the road, and saw that no one was chasing, so she leaned against the wall and bent down with her knees on her knees, panting heavily.

This is a deep alley, the shops on both sides are closed, only some worthless shelves are still placed on the side of the road, trembling in the cold wind.The moonlight shines in the alley, and someone's dog is barking in the distance.

Ye Qinghuai stood up, feeling cold and hungry, as if walking on a dark road leading to the ghost world.

She had never been in such a mess in her two lifetimes combined.

But she doesn't regret it at all.

If the truth is a sharp knife, she is not afraid to hold it with bare hands.Because, she is more afraid of living in the armor called lies all her life.

Ye Qinghuai dragged her tired body, and continued walking towards the unknown direction.

There was silence in the narrow alley, Ye Qinghuai's upright figure dragged into a long silhouette on the ground under the moonlight, lonely but persistent.

Within a hundred steps, at a fork, Ye Qinghuai almost bumped into someone.

The man walked silently and extremely fast, and suddenly appeared from another alley like a ghost.

Ye Qinghuai stopped just a fist away from the opponent.What caught her eyes was a black brocade cloak and a hand subconsciously holding down the long sword at the side of her waist.

That hand was beautiful, slender and jade-white, and even looked a little familiar.

The opponent was taller than her, covering her in the shadow. When the opponent saw Ye Qinghuai, he loosened his hand on the long sword.

Ye Qinghuai raised her head and saw a face she was all too familiar with.

Lu Yanchen was looking down at her.

His deserted face was embedded in the moonlight, somehow giving birth to a sense of holiness.Ye Qinghuai's flustered face was reflected in his clear eyes, and there was panic and surprise similar to Ye Qinghuai's in his eyes.

Their eyes met, and Ye Qinghuai was about to speak when the alley behind her suddenly lit up with flames.

Ye Qinghuai turned her head and looked towards the firelight together with Lu Yanchen.

It was those who were chasing Ye Qinghuai, and the torches in their hands illuminated Ye Qinghuai's face.Beside the leader was the boy in the hall. Seeing Ye Qinghuai, he exclaimed, "It's him! Don't let him run away!"

Ye Qinghuai turned her head to look at Lu Yanchen. In a flash, she was about to speak, but Lu Yanchen suddenly turned around and left her back.

Ye Qinghuai's heart suddenly seemed to sink to the bottom of the valley.

The next moment, those slender hands held her wrist firmly, and Lu Yanchen led her to run away.

To be more precise, it was dragging her.

Lu Yanchen's feet were like the wind, Ye Qinghuai followed very reluctantly.

But judging by Lu Yanchen's posture of walking freely in the alleys, he should know the terrain of the West Market much better than himself, so he must be able to escape the danger.

Ye Qinghuai breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the next moment, reality slapped Ye Qinghuai hard in the face.

Lu Yanchen and Ye Qinghuai stopped in front of a dead end.

It's not a dead end, but there are bricks and stones piled up in the middle of the road that are as high as a person. It seems that this is an unfinished road.

After a moment of silence, a faint fire and human voices appeared behind him.

Lu Yanchen lowered his head slightly, he quickly took off the cloak, and put it on Ye Qinghuai involuntarily.

"Sir, this is..." Ye Qinghuai only half-knelt down in front of her with his back turned to her.

He turned his head to Ye Qinghuai and said, "Your Majesty, please come up by yourself."

The voice was still as cold as ever.

Ye Qinghuai glanced at the approaching flames from the corner of his eye, and made up his mind.

She quickly fastened the cloak, but hesitated for a moment when she placed her hand on Lu Yanchen's shoulder.

But only for a moment.The next moment, she hooked Lu Yanchen's shoulder and jumped onto his back.

Lu Yanchen was thin and thin, but his back was wider and more reliable than Ye Qinghuai imagined.

"Your servant is rude." After Lu Yanchen finished speaking, he seemed to hesitate for a moment before standing up with Ye Qinghuai's leg supported.

Lu Yanchen's arm was also stronger than Ye Qinghuai's imagination.

With a leap, he tapped his feet lightly on the left and right walls twice, and then crossed the brick wall.

Together and after falling, the wind carried a strange breath over the tip of Ye Qinghuai's nose.But the breath was so weak that Ye Qinghuai only felt familiar, but couldn't remember what it was like.

After landing, Lu Yanchen put Ye Qinghuai down, looked back at the direction of the pursuers, and said, "They won't be able to catch up. Going out from here is Beixin Street, and Weichen's car is waiting there."

After speaking, he walked forward without even looking at Ye Qinghuai.Only this time, he didn't hold Ye Qinghuai's wrist anymore.

Ye Qinghuai followed behind him with her head down, like a child who has done something wrong.

Her heart was beating fast, and she didn't know if it was because she ran too hard just now, or because of Lu Yanchen.

Ye Qinghuai raised her head to look at Lu Yanchen's back, and thought to herself, it seems that he really knows the way.

Under Lu Yanchen's cloak was an unremarkable black dress, with belts wrapped around his wrists and calves, which looked a bit like a warrior's way of dressing.

Ye Qinghuai couldn't help but think of his appearance when he came to the Hall of Supreme Harmony in black armor in his previous life. His whole body was blood-colored and he looked like a Shura.

It turned out that besides the scholar of Taiqing Pavilion who is knowledgeable and respectful, he has always had this other side.It's just that Ye Qinghuai has never discovered it before, so he feels strange and terrifying when he lifts the sword to kill people.

Ye Qinghuai looked at his back, her gaze drifted involuntarily to his shoulders and neck.

Under the moonlight, the part of Lu Yanchen's neck that was exposed on the lapels looked like a piece of excellent white jade, and there was a faint straight vein on the side facing the moonlight, just like his straight spine.

Ye Qinghuai was in a daze.

Once upon a time, when she was walking with Lu Yanchen, she always looked for opportunities to walk behind him.

Not for anything else, just because I can peek at him unscrupulously when I am behind him, and I don't need to hide the hot affection in my eyes when I look at him.

Lu Yanchen stopped suddenly.

Only then did Ye Qinghuai come back to her senses, she looked around, they had already walked out of the West Market, and walked to a small road east of Beixin Street.

There are a few lanterns on the path, hanging in front of someone's house.In the dim candlelight, Ye Qinghuai saw a carriage parked in the middle of the road.

The carriage is not big, and it seems that it can only accommodate two or three people sharing it.A figure stood beside the horse, stroking the horse's back over and over again, preventing it from making any noise in the silent street.

Seeing Lu Yanchen and Ye Qinghuai coming from the night, he was overjoyed, and he hugged Lu Yanchen and said, "Sir."

Lu Yanchen nodded to him briefly, and said, "It's settled."

Then he turned his head and looked at Ye Qinghuai, as if to confirm whether she was injured or not. Seeing that she was fine, Lu Yanchen said: "The curfew is now, I will send you back to the palace."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Ye Qinghuai to speak, he walked to the side of the carriage and opened the curtain for Ye Qinghuai.

"Since it's a curfew, how can the sir's carriage walk on the street?" Ye Qinghuai couldn't help asking.

Lu Yanchen seemed to have expected her to ask this question, and he took out a gold medal half the size of a palm from his pocket.Ye Qinghuai took a closer look. On the top of the gold medal was written two lines of small characters "Dajing" horizontally, and below it was written two large characters "Yu Ci" vertically, and two dragons were carved on both sides.

It is a gold medal bestowed by the royal family.But as an emperor, Ye Qinghuai never knew the existence of this gold medal.

Seeing the doubt in Ye Qinghuai's eyes, Lu Yanchen turned over the gold medal.

Ye Qinghuai saw two words engraved on the back - Shunping.

That was her father's country title.

It is not difficult to explain here.Seeing this gold medal is like seeing the late emperor.Even under curfew, no one dared to stop his frame.

But why did the emperor reward him with this gold medal?The doubts in Ye Qinghuai's heart became heavier.

"It's a long story, let's talk about it in the car." Lu Yanchen said.
