Shengjing Noble

Chapter 620 Running away from home

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll get ready."

After the guard outside finished speaking, he left the yard, probably heading to the kitchen.

Su Lanyin watched through the crack in the door.

It must be said that the Prince of Zhennan really values ​​her. He actually allowed more than a dozen guards into such a small courtyard.

She would definitely not be able to defeat them by force, so it seemed she could only outsmart them.

Su Lanyin turned around and looked around, her eyes fell on an incense burner, so she walked over and took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms.

She opened the lid of the incense burner, poured the white powder from the bottle into it, and then lit it with fire.

After closing the lid, white smoke rose from the incense burner, and Su Lanyin took out a pill and put it in her mouth.

"This little incense burner is really too small. It looks like it will take some time to fill up this room."

She sat at the dining table and waited silently for the food to arrive.

Finally, after a while, the door was opened and several guards came in with food and placed it on the table one by one.

"Princess, please have your meal."

After saying that, they turned around and were about to leave, but Su Lanyin slapped the table in displeasure.

"What do you mean? Do you have any rules?"

The leader of the guards looked at her in confusion: "Princess, what rules are you talking about?"

Su Lanyin raised her chin and said, "You called me Princess, which means that I have a very high status, right?"

"Yes." Several guards nodded.

She continued, "When I eat, I have to be served by someone, some to serve the food, and some to feed me. You won't let me eat alone, will you?"

The guards looked at each other and immediately had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, the next second Su Lanyin said, "Call in all the guards in the yard."

The leader looked embarrassed: "Isn't this inappropriate?"

"What? You want to fool me? If that's the case, then I won't eat. At worst, I'll just starve to death!"

With a scoundrel look on her face, she threw down her chopsticks, stood up and went back to lie on the bed.

The leader of the guards hastily apologized: "It's my fault, Princess, please calm down. I will let them in right away!"

After saying that, he turned around and shouted to the outside of the door: "Come in!"

Seven or eight more guards came in from outside the door. Now there were more than a dozen guards standing in front of Su Lanyin. All of them were young, tall and strong, with good looks, and looked quite pleasing to the eye.

She raised the corners of her mouth in satisfaction and pointed at a few people: "Come here and pour me some wine, come here and pick up some food for me, and you, come and sit with me, and besides..."

After hearing the tasks she assigned, several guards ran over immediately.

"What about the rest?" asked the guard leader.

Su Lanyin thought for a moment and said, "Show me a talent, any talent is fine, as long as it makes this princess happy, there will be a huge reward."

Everyone looked embarrassed, but the youngest one still stood up.

He performed a set of military boxing moves, Su Lanyin clapped her hands in applause, and took out a gold ingot from her bosom and threw it over.

Seeing this, the others also became excited and clamored to go up and perform first.

Even the head of the guards was eager to make a move, with a flattering smile on his face: "My lord, what do you think I can do?"

Su Lanyin looked at him and said, "Close the door."

"Ah... yes."

The leader of the guards was frustrated and had to go over and close the door.

Su Lanyin ate, drank and watched the show. In a short while, the smoke from the stove had filled the entire room.

The guards fainted one after another, but they thought they were drunk.

Seeing that there were no obstacles, Su Lanyin immediately picked up the luggage that had been prepared long ago and left the room.

She found Su Shengming and Song Huaizhi's yard, stabbed the guards with silver needles, and successfully rescued them.

"No time to elaborate, let's go."

Su Lanyin led the two of them and quietly escaped from the palace through the back door.

……

The next day.

The guards who were knocked unconscious woke up, and when they came to their senses, they felt like the sky had fallen!

At this time, Su Lanyin and others had already left the southern border and headed towards Quanzhou.

……

Su Lanyin and the other two disguised themselves as three men and deliberately drew wrinkles on their faces, so that each of them looked like a man in his forties.

When they arrived at the second city, they bought a carriage, and then they did not rush to escape, but continued on their journey slowly.

After all, they are easy to be discovered. As long as they don't panic and reveal their true colors, no one will notice them.

The King of Southern Xinjiang was not familiar with them, so he would not have guessed that they could disguise themselves.

After a day's journey, they entered the city before dark and found an inn to rest.

At night, Su Lanyin was sleeping and suddenly she realized something was wrong. She opened her eyes and saw a dark shadow standing in front of the bed.

"Yeah!"

She cursed subconsciously, picked up the dagger under the pillow and stabbed at the dark shadow.

The other party reacted quickly, raised his hand to block her attack, and immediately lowered his voice and said: "Don't be afraid, I'm Huo Jingxiao!"

Su Lanyin's heart skipped a beat and she stared at him in surprise to identify him carefully.

It turned out to be the Prince of Southern Xinjiang, Huo Jingxiao.

"Master Huo? How did you find us?" She was very curious.

Huo Jingxiao smiled and let her go. He said as he sorted out his clothes, "I've been keeping an eye on you ever since you knocked the guard unconscious."

Su Lanyin took a few steps back: "Then why didn't you stop it?"

"Why should I stop it?"

"What?" She became more confused.

Huo Jingxiao said disdainfully: "Why should my father obey Fu Wuyang's words and detain you? Humph!"

Su Lanyin frowned: "Is there any conflict between the prince and King Xiaoyao?"

"If it weren't for him, I would..."

He wanted to say something but didn't say it, looking annoyed.

"Do I need to tell you this? Anyway, I won't stop you from escaping."

"Then why are you here?"

"I want to go with you." Huo Jingxiao said seriously.

"what?"

Su Lanyin's eyes were full of surprise.

"I have never left southern Xinjiang since I was a child. I want to go out and see what the north is like."

"You mean you're going to run away from home?"

"How can this be called running away from home? This prince is personally escorting you for your safety."

"Don't try that on me!" Su Lanyin immediately shook her head and refused, "No, no! We can just leave on our own, but if the King of Zhennan knew that we took his most precious son away, wouldn't he hate me to death?"

"Don't worry, I left a letter for my father, saying that I was going out for two days and didn't mention you."

"That won't work! I don't know you well, why should I go with you? Besides, men and women shouldn't touch each other, if others knew about it, how could it be so embarrassing?"

"But you are an old man now, what are you afraid of?"

"You...don't worry about it. Anyway, I don't want to go with someone I don't know."

"How come we don't know each other? Have you forgotten that we didn't know each other until we fought?"
