It was night, that hot palm pressed against her waist, and his hot breath sprayed on her ear.

While panting, he asked again and again: "Princess, you will come back, right?"

"Will you come back?"

…

He was like a stubborn child, as if he was longing for a real answer and refused to give up for a long time.

a long time……

After the man fell asleep completely, Wei Yunzhu struggled to push himself up slightly, poked his arm gently, and called softly: "Master Chief Assistant? Master Chief Assistant?"

After making sure that he was asleep, Wei Yunzhu approached him slightly and reached out to touch his waist.

She knew that Pei Ji was extremely suspicious and would carry the military talisman with him even when he slept.

My arms kept stretching forward with great effort, and finally, I touched it!

She was very familiar with it, and gently pulled off the bronze medal. Her chest was heaving due to nervousness, so she just glanced at the soldier talisman, confirmed it, and quickly stuffed it under her pillow.

Tomorrow is the fifth day of the first lunar month, the day of the heaven-sacrifice ceremony.

She felt very uneasy. Will everything go well? Her right eyelid was twitching inexplicably, making it difficult to fall asleep.

When I woke up again, the sun was already bright.

Wei Yunzhu stood up in a panic and said to the little girl who came to serve her: "Rong Qiao, where is the chief assistant?"

"Girl, it's still early. Mr. Chief Assistant told us not to disturb you and let you sleep a little longer. He is waiting for you in the study."

Wei Yunzhu breathed a sigh of relief: "Please wait for me to change my clothes."

About an hour later, Wei Yunzhu and Pei Ji arrived at Da Ci'en Temple.

As expected, the place was heavily guarded. There were soldiers of the Yue King with red silk around their arms everywhere, and there were probably countless dead soldiers lying in ambush around the place.

Naturally, the leaders here recognized Pei Ji, and they all bowed respectfully when they saw him. He held Wei Yunzhu's hand tightly, interlocking their fingers, and the two walked through the spacious Buddhist hall.

At noon, the Queen had already left the Pavilion to Jingxiang Pavilion half a quarter of an hour ago, taking a rest and waiting for the ceremony that would take place two hours later.

Pei Ji had already taken care of everything, and a leader with heavy armor turned around and nodded to him.

He turned around and gently stretched out his hands to help the girl tighten the fox-fur cloak: "Princess, although I have taken care of everything, the King of Yue is treacherous and insidious. If we don't protect him, he will return suddenly. This trip will definitely be dangerous."

"But the princess just needs to remember that no matter what, the minister will definitely protect you to the death."

There was a trace of hesitation in Wei Yunzhu's eyes, but she silently glanced at the door in front of her, then suddenly leaned forward and leaned on his chest.

"Pei Ji, can you wait for me here."

"Right here." Wei Yunzhu repeated anxiously, as if she was panicking because of fear.

Pei Ji placed a gentle kiss on her hair, and his voice seemed to be sighing: "Okay, Wei Chen will wait for the princess here. No matter what happens, Wei Chen will not leave until the princess comes out."

Wei Yunzhu raised her head slightly from his chest and nodded softly.

"You'll come back, won't you?"

"The princess won't be willing to leave her subordinates behind, will she?"

He had asked this rhetorical question countless times since last night, and every time it was like a thorn in Wei Yunzhu's heart.

She smiled softly and gently placed her other hand on the back of his hand holding hers: "You are waiting for me, so I will come back."

Pei Ji nodded with an extremely friendly smile: "Go ahead, Princess, no matter how long it takes, I will wait for you."

The moment the girl stepped into the house alone and the door closed.

The corner of Pei Ji's mouth curled up in an extremely weird arc. The shadow cast by the corridor made him hide in the darkness. He suddenly murmured: "Zhuzhu, Zhuzhu, you are such a little liar."

"You lied to me."

"Ha, disobedient little liar, little liar..."

"Yeah, liar."

…

The moment Wei Yunzhu stepped into the door, she finally saw the sister she had been thinking about day and night.

Wei Yunqing was also stunned. She stumbled forward and hugged the girl who threw herself into her arms: "Zhu Zhuer, you have lost weight."

Wei Yunzhu lay in her sister's arms, her tears already bursting into tears: "Sister... um..."

She couldn't speak a complete sentence.

"Zhu Zhu'er, I am so ashamed of you, my father and my mother, for letting you fall into the clutches of the devil!"

Wei Yunzhu raised her head, touched the corners of her sister's eyes with her hands, and tried to help her wipe away the tears: "No, no, sister, I'm fine now."

The sadness came from it. In the past, her pearls would shed tears and cry out in pain no matter how lightly they were bumped. Now, they have grown up overnight!

"Zhuzhu'er, you've suffered!" Wei Yunqing hugged her sister tightly in her arms. She hated her own inability to protect her in peace for the rest of her life.

After the two of them calmed down, Wei Yunqing grabbed Wei Yunzhu's arm: "Zhu Zhu'er, let's go. I will take you away from Chang'an."

Wei Yunzhu suddenly shook his head in panic: "No, if I leave, Pei Ji will not let you and Yan'er go, absolutely not!"

"Sister, I have already discussed this with Mr. Gu. Don't worry, with the King of Yue here, Pei Ji will not touch our mother and son easily. But you, you must leave."

Wei Yunzhu shook his head stubbornly, recalling what Pei Ji told him, and said sadly: "Sister, Dazhou can no longer withstand any turmoil. Besides, Pei Ji said that as long as I stay, he will definitely stand by Yan'er.

This way."

"Zhu Zhu'er, you don't understand that his purpose is definitely not this. Leave Chang'an, leave this place of right and wrong, okay? Otherwise, I won't be able to feel at ease even if I die!"

Hearing this, Wei Yunzhu turned pale and hesitated.

Wei Yunqing frowned, tilted his head slightly: "Come out."

From behind the screen, Gu Yanyi came out.

Wei Yunzhu was extremely surprised: "Brother Gu? How did you..."

"Princess Princess, time is running out now. You must come with me. I will arrange to send you out of Chang'an specifically so that we can carry out the plan."

"That day at Ganguang Temple, I told the princess my plan. Does the princess still remember it?"

Wei Yunzhu subconsciously grasped the military talisman that had been hidden in her waist. Yes, she successfully took the military talisman, and Pei Ji did not notice it.

That man has never trusted anyone and is indifferent to everything in the world. However, he always relaxes his vigilance in front of himself. Why is this?

"Princess, trust me." Gu Yanyi's eyes were full of sincerity.

Wei Yunzhu raised her eyes and ran in. If Pei Ji died, she should be the first to be happy, but... she was really hesitant...

I can't control my heart anymore.

Perhaps, it was pity, because after hearing his miserable life experience, I felt pity...

Finally, she took off the soldier talisman, and her clenched hand hung in the air for a long time, trembling slightly, without taking it back or sending it out.
