Xu Qingluo, Zhou Yang, Zhou Yu, and Chu Ling.

Chu Ling followed up secretly.

There wasn't even a Qianlong Guard following her. She ran out of the forbidden palace secretly, but it was impossible for Chu Xiong not to know.

After knowing it, he pretended not to know, and seemed to completely ignore her.

At this time, Xu Qingluo and the others were eating barbecue around a bonfire outside a small forest on the mountainside.

While eating meat, he talked.

The warm firelight illuminated their faces.

"Sister Chu, it seems that the emperor really doesn't care about you. You have really fallen out of favor." Xu Qingluo said with a smile: "This little prince hasn't been born yet, so he ignores you."

Chu Ling was dressed in a white shirt, caught a chicken leg and was eating it. Her green little fingers were slightly raised, and her eating movements were still elegant.

The firelight danced on her white jade-like face. She stared at the flames with bright eyes and said nothing.

Zhou Yu glanced at Xu Qingluo.

Xu Qingluo looked at Chu Ling with a smile.

Chu Ling stared at the bonfire.

Xu Qingluo looked at her for a while, then pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Okay, I'm not joking, actually I think this is because the emperor can rest assured about my master."

Chu Ling looked up at her.

Xu Qingluo smiled brightly: "If you were in danger, would master just sit back and ignore it? And we are still together. If you are in danger, of course I am in danger too. How could the emperor not understand this simple truth?"

"Huh, even if you understand, you still have to send someone."

"I'm afraid sending guards will still be a burden to us." Xu Qingluo said: "Master will save them or not? Rather than that, it would be better not to send guards. It would be less dangerous. Without guards, who would know that you are a princess?"

"...It makes sense." Chu Ling hummed.

Xu Qingluo chuckled and said: "Like I said, don't always think about the emperor's favor and the queen's favor. You were favored at first because you were ill. Now that you are cured, of course you are not so favored, my little son.

The eldest grandson and the queen's little prince are the targets of their favor, so give up as soon as possible to avoid heartache."

Chu Ling rolled her eyes at her.

Xu Qingluo's expression suddenly changed and she sneered.

Zhou Yu said softly: "Is there anyone?"

Xu Qingluo snorted and said, "Someone really wants to cause trouble for us. It's interesting."

The four of them left Shenjing quietly and would not be discovered by anyone, and they had no enemies.

Zhou Yu said softly: "Are they the bandits nearby?"

Xu Qingluo's bright eyes flashed, and she had seen clearly. She nodded: "They must be rogue bandits. We were lucky enough to meet them."

She pointed towards the sky.

Zhou Yu and the others looked up at the sky.

It was dusk, and there was no light in the sky. I could vaguely see black spots moving. When I looked closely, I saw a goshawk.

"With the goshawk as an eye, the method is quite good." Xu Qingluo hummed: "And the cultivation level is not bad either."

Zhou Yang twisted his neck and his eyes lit up: "How many people are there in total?"

Xu Qingluo said: "One hundred and eight people, twenty masters, and there is a grand master... Hey, when did the grand master become a bandit?"

She felt vaguely strange.

What a noble status the Grand Master has.

Although there seem to be many great masters in Shenjing, this is because most of the great masters in Daqian are in Shenjing.

There are almost no great masters outside Shenjing.

Zhou Yu also frowned.

Zhou Yang said: "It's just a great master!...I'll do it."

He felt that he alone was enough to deal with these people, and he could kill a chicken with a sledgehammer.

"..." Xu Qingluo frowned and thought for a while, then finally hummed: "Forget it, let's retreat and avoid them."

Zhou Yang looked at her puzzled.

Xu Qingluo said: "To be on the safe side, if you don't want to face them, let's go."

She stood up and flicked her sleeves.

A pile of soil in the distance flew over and covered the bonfire.

Chu Ling shook her head: "Are you being too cautious?"

Zhou Yang nodded with deep approval.

Xu Qingluo said no more, and walked lightly into the woods. Zhou Yu followed, and Zhou Yang and Chu Ling followed helplessly.

After a while, a group of people came to the bonfire and saw white smoke floating out of the soil from time to time, but they had no intention of chasing them into the woods.
