Chapter 237 Vigilance

  The wind in the forest stopped, and it became more and more quiet.

  The moon is bright in the sky, and the frost is falling.

  Luo Sheng woke up in that warm and dry embrace.

  Woke up, tears were put away, and reason returned.

  She resolutely pushed the man away, as if that warm and broad embrace was not worth a trace of nostalgia.

   "Please trouble the prince to help me bury it together."

   If there is a day when the great revenge will be avenged, she will come back and bring Chao Hua home.

   Bring back their Nanyang City.

  If there is no such day, then let Chaohua sleep here, because at that time she did not know where she would be buried.

  The dug up soil was re-scattered on the straw mat, and on the uncovered hand.

  Luo Sheng stretched out his hand to pull the straw mat, his cold fingertips touched the same cold bracelet, he paused for a moment, and gently took off the bracelet.

   This pair of bracelets has trapped Chaohua for twelve years, so don't trap her anymore.

   Walking out of the dense forest, the world opens up instantly.

  Luo Sheng looked back and said calmly, "Let's go."

   Wei Han walked beside her silently.

   After walking for some time, Luo Sheng looked at him sideways: "Your Highness is not curious about my relationship with Yu Xuanshi?"

  This man is so silent.

   Wei Han stared into those dark eyes, and felt the urge to hug her again.

  Miss Luo is so sad, do I still need to ask about her relationship with Yu Xuanshi?

  If it was him...I'm afraid he wouldn't make Miss Luo so sad.

   Wei Han somehow came up with this idea.

   "If Miss Luo wants to speak, she will speak."

  If he wants to ask, he wants to ask a lot.

  For example, why Miss Luo appeared in the old residence of Zhennan Prince, why the disfigured woman he saw there became Miss Luo’s cook, why Miss Luo shot and killed King Pingnan...

  However, if these investigations would arouse Miss Luo's displeasure and alertness, then he would not ask.

  Luo Sheng walked forward for a long time, and said softly: "Thank you, my lord."

   Wei Han hesitated for a moment, and said, "Miss Luo, you can call me by my name."

  Luo Sheng's tone became colder: "No, it's better to be called Wang Ye."

   Wei Han fell silent again.

   Isn’t his name easier to pronounce than “Prince”?

  He actually thinks "Shengsheng" sounds better than "Miss Luo".

  The two walked in silence for a long time, Luo Sheng paused: "The prince's other courtyard is in that direction."

   "I'll take you back."

  Luo Sheng refused: "You don't need to be so troublesome, we just separate here."

   Wei Han shook his head, his tone firm: "Where I took Miss Luo away from, I will send Miss Luo back there."

   Only when there is a beginning and an end can he feel at ease.

   Seeing his resolute expression, Luo Sheng no longer persisted.

   On this night, she was not in the mood to persist.

  The other courtyards are connected together, and the red lanterns hanging under the eaves have not been extinguished, dimly illuminating the road.

  Standing in the quiet courtyard, Luo Sheng stopped: "My lord, go back."

   "See you tomorrow." Wei Han took a deep look at her, and then lightly jumped up the wall.

  The movement is so easy that all families with daughters would like to plant a prickly pear on the wall.

  Luo Sheng went directly to the wing.

  Xiuyue was resting in the wing room, she must not have slept at this time.

  Her abnormality has not given Xiuyue an answer.

  Luo Sheng knocked lightly on the door, and after only two knocks, the door opened.

  She walked in, her clothes and hands were stained with mud.

  Xiuyue yelled in a low voice: "Princess—"

  The tone trembled unconsciously.

  She's not smart, but she's not stupid either.

   I didn't see Chaohua yesterday, but today the Princess is so abnormal, something must have happened to Chaohua.

   "Princess, is Chaohua in trouble?"

  Luo Sheng was silent.

   "Is it embarrassing by the nobleman, or is he under house arrest because of knowing us and showing his feet—"

   "Chaohua is dead."

  Xiuyue was taken aback, and looked at Luo Sheng in disbelief: "Princess, what are you talking about?"

  Luo Sheng trembled his eyes, and said softly: "Xiuyue, Chaohua is dead, she was killed by Wei Qiang."

  Xiuyue backed away in panic, shaking her head constantly: "Impossible, impossible, the day before yesterday was fine—"

  Luo Sheng sat down, his voice was shockingly cold: "It should be because of me."

   "Princess!" Xiuyue's face immediately changed upon hearing what Luo Sheng said, "Don't think so."

Luo Sheng laughed at himself: "I'm not recklessly blaming myself, but a reasonable guess. Chao Hua has been with Wei Qiang for twelve years, and being brought to Beihe by him is enough to be favored by him. Then what would make Wei Qiang do such a cruel thing? "

  Xiuyue was so questioned that she couldn't speak, her mind was full of the news of Chaohua's death.

   "I think, it must be Chaohua who found out that Wei Qiang had doubts about you and me, and forced her to take the risk and get rid of Wei Qiang in desperation."

   "Why can't she bear it—" Xiuyue's face was full of tears, but she couldn't continue her complaints.

  If it was her, if she felt that the princess was in danger, she would not be able to bear it for a moment.

  Luo Sheng closed his eyes, his voice trembling slightly: "Xiuyue, Chaohua is using her death as a warning to us."

  Whether the assassination of the prince succeeds or fails, there is only one dead end for Chaohua.

  She is heartbroken, but she can understand Chaohua's choice in a certain way.

  Among the four maidservants, Chao Hua is actually the loneliest one. During those years of committing herself to the jackal, I am afraid that life would be worse than death every moment.

   Because of this, when Chaohua handed her the bracelet, she asked Chaohua to walk down with her.

   Chaohua agreed, but she actually lost the will to live through gritting her teeth, so she decided to make this choice after discovering that Wei Qiang might pose a threat to her or Xiuyue.

   Rather than being impulsive, it is better to say that you are going to die calmly in order to be free.

   "She's so stupid, really so stupid..." Xiuyue murmured, repeating this sentence over and over again.

  Luo Sheng sat quietly, listening to her vent.

  Xiuyue finally collapsed, covering her face and crying in this small courtyard in the dead of night.

   "Princess, the maid has not had time to call her sister Chaohua..."

  Her sisters Shufeng, Chaohua, and Jiangxue are all dead.

  Her fiancé Yang Zhun also died.

  Then what about the princess, the princess who came back from the dead, can she really walk to the end of that road safe and sound?

  At this moment, Xiuyue seemed to fall into the abyss of fear, trembling all over.

  Patting her back lightly with one hand.

   "Xiuyue."

  Xiuyue put down her hands and stared at Luo Sheng in a daze.

  Luo Sheng looked calm: "Don't be afraid."

   "Princess, I am afraid that you—"

Luo Sheng smiled: "Then there is no need to be afraid. I have become Miss Luo. Every day I live is earned, and every bit of justice I get back from those beasts is also earned. We only have to earn, No compensation, don't you think?"

  Xiuyue nodded vigorously: "The Princess is right."

   "Don't call me Princess in the future."

  Xiuyue was taken aback.

   "In the future, even if there is no one, you still call me girl, and I call you Xiugu. Wei Qiang may have noticed something, maybe he will stare at us, be careful that walls have ears."

  Princess Qingyang and her romance, please keep it in your heart.

  From then on, she was just Miss Luo.
