Standing on the street, Xun Chengzhi panted heavily, watching the endless stream of people of all kinds passing by, and he gradually calmed down.

At this moment, he happened to be standing at the intersection. Because he was stagnant, he was bumped into several times by the people going back and forth, and he didn't notice it at all.

In a short period of time, he had countless thoughts in his mind, and finally, he decided to go back.

But sometimes life is just one coincidence after another.

An Ning saw him and sent the palace maid aside to buy something for her.

"Uncle Xun!" An Ning stood not far away and called with a sweet smile.

When Xun Chengzhi saw An Ning, he suppressed what he blurted out and walked over slowly. He couldn't control the excitement in his heart. When he smiled, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, which was the result of his efforts to restrain himself.

"Uncle Xun, why are you here?"

Xun Chengzhi smiled a little unnaturally. After all, he was not good at lying. Seeing that the girl in front of him was a noble princess, he was already calm.

"Ah... Xiao Ning, I... I'm waiting for your mother here. You are getting married. Congratulations."

An Ning smiled and said, "Uncle Xun, I like the gift you gave me very much. Thank you for your expense."

"I treat you as..."

Xun Chengzhi was halfway through what he said, but he couldn't say any more.

How dare he compare with the late emperor.

"You think of me as your daughter, I know." An Ning looked at him with a smile, "My mother... it may take a few days."

"No hurry, no rush, you mother and daughter haven't seen each other for a long time. It's time to catch up on old times. Let her know when you get back."

An Ning nodded and listened quietly.

"I...I don't care here. Let her spend more time with you. I...will always be here waiting for her."

"Uncle Xun, you are such a good person. My mother is smiling more now that she is with you."

Xun Chengzhi smiled and said, "Go and do your work. Before we get married, we need to prepare some things. Later...when you have time, come to our place to see your mother. She is thinking about you."

"I know, I will definitely go." An Ning looked at him, a little embarrassed, "Uncle Xun, I'm so sorry, I can't treat you to a wedding drink on my wedding day, you won't be angry with me, right?"

"No, no, I understand. Don't be embarrassed. As long as you live well and your mother is happy, I will be happy too."

An Ning saw the palace maid coming and couldn't wait too long, so she left.

After the two left, Xun Chengzhi staggered and almost fell.

He didn't know how to get back to the inn. When he came to his senses, he had already sat down in the inn.

An Ning came to see Concubine Guo every day. Even if she brought the palace maid with her, she would only say that she was the nanny who had taken care of her. The palace maid would not be suspicious when she saw the disguised Concubine Guo.

While the mother and daughter were talking, they sent the person away.

An Ning naturally told her mother about meeting Xun Chengzhi, "Uncle Xun is really a very good person."

She also told what Xun Chengzhi asked her to tell her mother. After hearing this, Mrs. Guo smiled with satisfaction.

On An Ning's wedding day, Concubine Guo was naturally present. Although she couldn't sit in the high hall and accept the couple's bow, she was satisfied to see her daughter get married.

On the other side, Xun Chengzhi and his friends also came, just watching from a distance, but what he saw was not a newlywed couple, but looking for his wife everywhere.

He was glad that he didn't see it, so those people wouldn't see it either.

"Brother Xun, everyone is gone, what else are you watching?" The man looked at him and smiled, "Didn't you say that you couldn't come up with it before? Now you are watching more interestingly than me."

Xun Chengzhi smiled and shook his head, "It's okay. Since we are all in the capital, we naturally have to be happy."

"That's true. Why didn't my sister-in-law come today?" the man asked again. "She...she has something important to do." Xun Chengzhi said with a smile.

After Princess An Ning's wedding, Concubine Guo also planned to leave here.

She first came to the inn to meet Xun Chengzhi as agreed. Xun Chengzhi was surprised and happy to see her.

"Why did you come back so early?"

"Do you think I came back too early?"

"No, no, no, of course I want to see you, but it's rare for Xiao Ning to see you once when I'm free. Why don't you spend more time with her?" Xun Chengzhi asked with concern.

Concubine Guo bit her head lightly, "I saw her marry her beloved with my own eyes. I am already satisfied. I have nothing to worry about in this life anymore. It's time to leave here."

"It doesn't matter, Xiao Ning will definitely visit you in the future."

Mrs. Guo nodded, and the couple packed their things and planned to leave.

Unexpectedly, their carriage was stopped five miles outside the city gate.

Xun Chengzhi suddenly became nervous, but soon calmed down again. He looked at the man on the horse and said in a trembling voice: "You... who are you? I... I advise you to leave quickly. We... are taking Human, you...don't even think about trying to take advantage of us."

"What's wrong?" Guo Taifei was about to poke her head out to take a look, but was stopped by the man.

"Don't come out, don't be afraid, I'm here!"

Concubine Guo was not afraid. She thought about who dared to attack her so close to the capital.

"You...you still won't leave?" Xun Chengzhi's words were really not impressive.

The man's dart flew past his cheek and hit the carriage directly.

Xun Chengzhi was so frightened that he couldn't breathe for a while, "Madam, where is the person?"

Concubine Guo also frowned, why didn't the secret guard show up at this time?

"Don't... don't hurt my wife. What do you want, money? Or this carriage. I'll give you everything. Take it. Don't hurt our lives."

"What if I have to kill him?"

Concubine Guo frowned, this voice...

Xun Chengzhi swallowed, his head turned rapidly, and he instantly understood what was going on.

This is... the madam's identity has been exposed.

Who wants to kill her?
"Then...then you first...step...over my body!" Xun Chengzhi lowered his voice and said to Concubine Guo in the car: "Madam, no matter what happens later, run quickly and don't look back. Leave me alone, you know?"

Concubine Guo curled her lips, "Aren't you afraid?"

"Afraid!" Xun Chengzhi said: "But, I am a man and you are a woman, I have to protect you!"

The curve of Concubine Guo's lips became wider and wider, "Oh, what will you do when I leave?"

"Leave me alone. I'll hold him tightly later and won't let him catch up with you. Just run, remember!"

Concubine Guo nodded, she really couldn't hold it in any longer.

"run!"

After that, Xun Chengzhi rushed towards the man on the tall horse. He even fell down halfway, but he got up and continued running. It was a bit funny, but also touching.

"Ah...I'll fight with you!" Xun Chengzhi shouted loudly, but before he even got close, he was knocked to the ground by a horse lifting his leg. (End of chapter)
