The two have not met for more than a year.

Under such circumstances, no one said a word. Qin Ruliang reached out and lifted the bandit leader's body away from her, then bent down silently, and picked her up from the bed with one hand.

Zhaoyang leaned obediently on Qin Ruliang's shoulder. She had never paniced and feared when the situation was so anxious just now. Now she was leaning safely in someone's arms, but her eyes suddenly turned red.

Qin Ruliang held her with one hand and the sword with the other. After going out, a bandit who was ignorant of the life and death thought it was difficult for him to hold someone, so he rushed forward with a knife and finally became the dead soul under the sword.

This was the first time Zhaoyang saw him with such a heroic side.

Qin Ruliang successfully led Zhaoyang down the mountain, and the last bandit on the mountain failed to survive. When he arrived at the foot of the mountain, he placed Zhaoyang on the back of the horse, then turned over and ran back to the city with his people.

After returning to the city, Zhaoyang locked himself in his room and washed for an afternoon, but he didn't see him coming out.

The main reason is that she has been living in a bandit's nest for a while and it is inconvenient to wash. She feels that her whole body is dirty. In addition, she has been covered in blood. After washing it back and forth several times, she still feels that she has not washed it clean.

In Qin Ruliang's eyes, this seemed to have become another meaning.

She is a girl who is in a bandit's nest, and the consequences can be imagined.

When it was dark, Qin Ruliang appeared in front of Zhaoyang's door. After pausing for a while, he still reached out to knock on the door.

Qin Ruliang said, "Are you okay?"

After waiting for a while, seeing that there was no response inside, Qin Ruliang said again: "Don't worry, your father, Prince Mu, is already on the way to come, and you will return to Beixia safely."

There is still no response inside.

Qin Ruliang's heart sank. He couldn't wait any longer. He shook his hand and broke the door bolt. He pushed the door and walked in directly.

He was really worried, afraid that Zhaoyang would not be able to figure it out and find a short-term view.

However, what he looked up was that Zhaoyang had finished bathing, changed into a clean dress, and was now falling asleep on the head of the bed.

She was too tired. The pinch marks on her tender white neck became more and more eye-catching.

When Zhaoyang heard the movement, he frowned, rubbed his eyes while getting up, and said sleepily: "What did you say, my father is coming?"

Qin Ruliang realized that it was a false alarm. In the twilight shining through the window, his eyes fell on the pinching marks on her neck, a little heavy, but his mouth was cold and "um" cold.

King Mu is coming, and Zhaoyang is not very happy.

So that night, Zhaoyang took advantage of the fact that everyone in the mansion was asleep, and she sneaked out of the mansion alone, preparing to escape.

I didn't expect that as soon as I climbed up the wall, I was discovered by Qin Ruliang.

At that time, Qin Ruliang stood under the wall with his hands in his arms, and said coldly: "What are you doing by sneaking over the wall?"

"Ah, haha, I can't sleep, so I want to go out for a walk."

“The door is there.”

Zhaoyang exclaimed and was picked up by Qin Ruliang from the wall.

She no longer felt very enthusiastic and dependent on Qin Ruliang as before, and smiled a little reluctantly. Perhaps because she knew that she was not smiling well, she reached out and touched her nose awkwardly to cover up.

Qin Ruliang said: "It's midnight, where do you want to take a walk?"

Zhaoyang said casually: "Anyway, I just go out for a walk."

"If you like to go out for a walk at night and climb the wall, after King Mu comes, I will hand you over to King Mu safely, and you will make trouble in the future."

Zhaoyang whispered: "I can't wait for him to bring me back."

Qin Ruliang frowned and said, "Why?"

Zhaoyang looked up at him and smiled and said, "I heard that you are going to get married to Princess Showa, so you may know that I am getting engaged too."

Qin Ruliang nodded: "I have heard of this."

Zhaoyang said with red eyes: "Shaohe is a lady from a family, she is also beautiful, and will be a good wife and mother in the future. You probably haven't seen her before. Do you really want to marry her?"

Qin Ruliang said: "This has nothing to do with you."

Zhaoyang said: "Yes, your marriage looks very happy, and my marriage looks good too. But it's all superficial. I don't want to marry him, so I can't let my father find me."

She whispered, "When my father finds me, I will have to go back and get married."

"What's wrong with that? The girl's family always wants to get married."

Zhaoyang frowned, and the feeling of sadness that had just disappeared, and he said hatefully: "But you don't know that my fiancé is a scumbag. If I marry that kind of person, I will never have a good life in my life!"

Qin Ruliang said nothing, and Zhaoyang started to scold: "On the surface, he is a talented person, gentle and elegant. In private, he drinks heavily, he raises a concubine, and he is still irritable! What he wants to marry me is nothing but to be a princess! I heard that he is always arrogant at home and very fierce. If I marry him, what will he do if he beat me if he doesn't like him? I am so weak and have no power to tie a chicken, he will definitely be beaten to death by him!"

The further Zhaoyang said, Qin Ruliang's eyebrows became deeper and deeper. He said, "Who did you hear? If this is true, your father would never marry you to such a person."

Zhaoyang said: "Listen to what my best friend in Beijing said, my father is just a dizzy person. My fiancé may pretend to be a gentleman in front of him, and he is both virtuous and talented, and he pretends to be like anything. I have told my father countless times, but he just doesn't believe me and thinks I hate marriage. Oh, how could there be such a confused father in the world?"

Qin Ruliang saw her squatting in the corner of the wall and holding her knees, looking really distressed and pitiful.

Qin Ruliang said: "If you are worried about these things, when King Mu comes, you can ask him to investigate your fiancé again. If this is true, I believe King Mu will not force you to marry."

Zhaoyang is silent.

After a long time, she said, "Look at me like this, I was kidnapped by bandits for many days. Can I still return to my original appearance after I go back?"

Qin Ruliang had a meal.

Zhaoyang's chin pressed against his knees and said quietly: "This is my stain, which will accompany me for the rest of my life. In the future, no matter who I marry, I will be used by my husband's family to attack me. Even if I don't marry for the rest of my life, I will be ridiculed by others. It is because I lose my innocence that I can't get married. No wonder those girls caught by bandits will choose to die after they go back."

Later, Zhaoyang brushed the corner of his skirt, got up and went back to the room, and said, "If you have the ability, just keep looking at me. Maybe if you don't pay attention, I will also seek some confusion."

King Mu's journey was very fast, and he arrived at the border town early the next morning to meet Qin Ruliang.

At the same time, Qin Ruliang temporarily prepared two maids for Zhaoyang to serve her to get up.
