Yaoji sneered and sneered, "Is the Crown Prince blind? It wasn't Young Madam Mu who wanted to hit me. "
Mu Yang frowned and looked at Yaoji helplessly, "Yaoji, you …"
Yaoji, who was talking and laughing, suddenly changed her expression. She raised her hand and slapped Mu Yang hard in the face. Not only did Mu Yang's face turn to the side, but it also made Marchioness Muyang and Young Madam Mu cry out in shock.
"Yang 'er! Bitch! You … "Marchioness Muyang was furious. Mu Yang hurriedly stopped his mother who was about to fly into a rage. He said to Yaoji with a gloomy expression, "Are you appeased now?"
Yaoji pursed her lips and smiled, but her smile was extremely cold, "Appeased? You must be joking. Since you said you want to marry me, Yaoji has a question even though my life is cheap. "
Mu Yang was delighted, thinking that Yaoji had relented. He hurriedly said, "Ask away."
Yaoji held the child with one hand and pointed at Matriarch Mu, asking, "If Yaoji is killed by Marchioness Muyang one day, what are you going to do?"
Mu Yang's expression changed slightly, "Yaoji, what nonsense are you talking about? How could my mother … "
Yaoji sneered and raised her eyebrows, "Why don't you ask Marchioness Muyang if she was going to kill me just now?" Mu Yang turned to look at Marchioness Muyang, only to see her stiffly turn her face away. His heart couldn't help but sink. Yaoji smiled brilliantly, "It's fine if you want to marry me as a concubine. Based on your sincerity, Yaoji will use my life to stop you. As long as you swear in front of everyone in the capital that if Yaoji dies an unnatural death one day … you will personally kill her in front of her coffin, and she will still be my subordinate. How about it? "
"Yang 'er!"
"Heir!" Marchioness Muyang and Young Madam Mu both tried to stop him.
Looking at their ugly expressions, Yaoji smiled mockingly and turned to enter the room with the child, ignoring how noisy Marchioness Muyang and Young Madam Mu were outside.
When Mu Yang finally saw his mother and wife off, he returned to his room and saw Yaoji standing in front of the window, thinking about something. A trace of guilt flashed through Mu Yang's eyes as he sighed in a low voice, "Yaoji, why are you doing this? Why would you say something like that? I know … you're not that kind of person. "
Yaoji sneered, "You're wrong. I'm that kind of person. If I don't live well, then no one will! If anything happens to me, I won't count on you to avenge me. I gave 50,000 taels of silver to the Yanwang Chamber of Commerce. If anything happens to me, the people of the Yanwang Chamber of Commerce will naturally avenge me. "
"I don't believe it." Mu Yang shook his head and smiled.
Yaoji remained silent. Mu Yang hugged her waist from behind and whispered, "Yaoji, you can live here from now on. Don't worry, from now on, Marquis Muyang's men will never come again. No one will disturb us. Let's live a good life. "
More than a year ago, when Mu Yang hugged her like this, she still felt warm and tender. But now, she felt as if a cold and wet snake had wrapped itself around her. From the outside to the inside, the coldness seeped into his heart.
Sure enough, no one disturbed them for two whole months. In these two months, Yaoji didn't resist Mu Yang, nor did she make a fuss about leaving. Gradually, Mu Yang seemed to be relieved, and he came less often than before. After all, Mu Yang was a young and promising man. It was impossible for him to spend all his time on a woman. When Yaoji knew that Mu Yang wouldn't come for some time because of Mo Jingqi's order, she knew her chance had come.
The servants in the courtyard didn't respect Yaoji. Seeing that she didn't intend to run away, they gradually relaxed their vigilance. Finally, Yaoji took the child and escaped from the courtyard one night when the lanterns were lit.
After escaping from the courtyard, Yaoji only took some cheap but valuable jewelry. And she immediately exchanged these jewelry for silver notes. She didn't know when Mu Yang found out that she was missing, but no one chased after her for a few days before she escaped. Yaoji ran day and night all the way to the west, but unfortunately, she was still caught by the people of Marquis Muyang's Mansion ten days later.
It wasn't easy for a lone woman to run around with a child. On the fifteenth day, Yaoji finally saw the people who chased after her. But they were different from the people who looked for her everywhere two days ago. These people wanted to kill her. Just when Yaoji was almost desperate, several carriages appeared at the edge of the woods. Without thinking too much, Yaoji ran towards the carriages with the child in her arms. While running, she shouted, "Help! Help … "
In the front, a man in gray was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly jumped up. The people who chased after her were not professional assassins, nor were they masters. Naturally, they were easily killed.
Yaoji sat on the ground with the child in her arms. For a moment, she didn't come to her senses. Was she … safe?
"Miss Yaoji, are you all right?" A deep male voice sounded in front of her. Yaoji looked up in a daze. A tall man with a calm expression stood in front of her. Yaoji was stunned, saying, "You … you are Commander Qin?"
"Qin Feng." Qin Feng said lightly. He was ordered to go to the capital of Chu to find the princess's two wet nurses and two maids. But he didn't expect to meet Yaoji who was being chased. Frowning, Qin Feng asked, "Who is chasing after you?"
Yaoji said with waning interest, "Probably people from the House of Marquis Muyang." She had just escaped from danger. These days of hiding and hurrying on the road had already exhausted her both mentally and physically. Now that she suddenly relaxed, she didn't have the mood to care about these things.
Qin Feng looked down at the child in her arms. He didn't cry when Yaoji was running with him. "This is your child?"
Yaoji nodded and smiled, saying, "Yes, this is my son. Shen Jingan. "
Qin Feng raised his eyebrows. He didn't ask why the child's surname wasn't Mu. He looked down at Yaoji and said, "Miss, what are your plans?"
Yaoji said embarrassedly, "I plan to go west."
Qin Feng thought for a moment and said, "We are going back to Glass City. Miss, you can come with us."
Yaoji was delighted. She originally planned to go to the Prince Ding Mansion. She didn't have to go to Glass City. But people from the House of Marquis Muyang would be more restrained after entering Feihong Pass. But the journey to Glass City was long. It would be best if she could travel with them. Thinking of this, Yaoji didn't refuse. She nodded and said, "Then, thank you, Commander Qin."
Qin Feng shook his head silently. He looked at Yaoji's sallow and emaciated appearance and didn't say anything more. He only said, "It's nothing. No need to be so polite."
