Liu Huo saw Liu Fan's stern expression and laughed nonchalantly, saying: "As long as I am alive, I will not stop taking back everything that belongs to me. It is just a matter of time. It is best for you to make more preparations for the battle with your father when you go back.
This day is a matter of time."
Liu Fan sneered: "Since you are so stubborn, there is nothing I can do about it, so you can do it yourself."
"Why don't you say goodbye and leave the palace? What are you waiting for?" Liu Huo asked with a frown.
"It's not easy for us to come to Southern Xinjiang. We want to stay in this palace for one night before leaving, can't we?" Liu Fan asked back.
"What else do you have to do?" Liu Huo would never believe that he would stay in the palace if nothing happened.
"It has nothing to do with you." Liu Fan said coldly.
"In that case, I won't mind my own business, but if something goes wrong, I can't protect you," Liu Huo said.
Liu Fan glanced at him, stopped talking, and turned around to leave. He pretended as if nothing had happened, took Luo Lianyi and a few followers to play and watch in the imperial garden, while the King of Southern Xinjiang was preoccupied with pursuing Luo Lianyi and the masked man.
, there is no time to take care of them.
One day passed, and Luo Lianyi and the masked man disappeared like mud into the sea. The King of Southern Xinjiang was annoyed and depressed, but couldn't figure it out until he returned to the palace late at night, lying on the bed exhausted, still tossing and turning.
Having trouble sleeping.
He had no intention of calling his concubine to sleep with him, so he sent the queen to accompany him. The queen was always resourceful, but she did not care about worldly affairs and had no fight with the world. Under normal circumstances, she would not speak out easily.
"Your Majesty, according to my concubine, there is only one person who kidnapped the princess." Seeing that the emperor was anxious and unable to sleep, she smiled faintly and said.
"Who?" King Nanjiang sat up hurriedly and asked her.
"Prince Xiling is entering the palace today," the queen said.
"Prince Xiling? It's impossible, right? He kidnapped the princess, so he should be in a hurry to escape from Southern Xinjiang. Why is he still thinking about staying in the palace?" The King of Southern Xinjiang frowned and shook his head.
"If he leaves in a hurry, the king will definitely become suspicious. No matter how fast he escapes, he can't escape from the king's grasp. Wouldn't it be safer if he stays overnight and lets the king relax his vigilance and leave boldly tomorrow?"
The queen said calmly.
"That's right! Why didn't I think of that? The Prince of Xiling came all the way to Southern Xinjiang, probably just for this princess!" The King of Southern Xinjiang suddenly realized.
"The princess may be in the Xiling Prince's camp outside the city right now. The emperor only needs to search their camp and he will definitely find her," the queen said.
"Why should I search for a reason? Xiling is not someone to be trifled with." The King of Southern Xinjiang was in a dilemma.
"Don't you have the secret rosemary that the ghost sent you? Let them all sleep like pigs, and you can search as much as you want." The queen smiled.
"Yes! Why didn't I think of that!" The King of Nanjiang slapped his forehead, jumped up from the bed, put on some clothes, walked out quickly, summoned the commander of the guards, and told him to do this and take action immediately.
Liu Fan and the others had not slept, waiting for the night to sneak into the palace to steal the hair of the King of Nanjiang and the Queen. However, he did not expect that the King of Nanjiang had already led several powerful men and secretly left the city to search for his troops.
.
He told Luo Lianyi and the others to wait in the room and not to act rashly. He changed into night clothes and quietly sneaked into the palace of the King of Southern Xinjiang. He was already familiar with the route during the day, and it was still easy to evade the night guards at night.
He lay on the roof, gently lifted a piece of glazed tile, and looked inside the palace through the gap. The lamp in the bedroom was still on, and a graceful and luxurious middle-aged woman was sitting under the lamp, holding her chin in thought, but there was no one else in the room.
People are here.
"It's strange, it's so late, why hasn't the King of Nanjiang returned to his palace yet?" Liu Fan was surprised, lying on the roof and not daring to move. The King of Nanjiang was not here, so he couldn't take action, so he had to wait for him to come back.
Time passed slowly. Liu Fan was lying on the roof, feeling that his body was almost stiff. The King of Southern Xinjiang had not yet come back. Luo Lianyi and the others who were waiting in the room were even more anxious and did not dare to go over to inquire about the situation.
The drums were beating at the fourth watch, and Liu Fan finally heard the sounds of chaotic footsteps coming from the courtyard. He concentrated and held his breath, guessing that the King of Southern Xinjiang was back.
Sure enough, when the bedroom door opened, the King of Nanjiang strode in, and the Queen had already stood up to greet him.
The King of Nanjiang drank a glass of water, said nothing, and sat on the chair sulking.
"Your Majesty, you didn't find them?" The queen looked a little surprised.
"No, they are all men, there is no trace of the princess at all." The King of Nanjiang said angrily.
Liu Fan listened on the rooftop and suddenly realized that it turned out that the King of Nanjiang left the palace in the middle of the night and went to look for Lianyi.
"There is no military camp stationed outside the city in Xiling." The queen frowned.
Liu Fan was shocked. He didn't expect that they had searched the military horse he brought. So, the King of Southern Xinjiang already suspected that the masked man who rescued Lianyi that night was him!
"No." The King of Nanjiang replied angrily.
The queen frowned and thought for a while, then said, "Could she be with Prince Xiling?"
"How is it possible? The people who entered the palace today are all men, there are no women." The King of Nanjiang denied.
"That's strange. Your Majesty, it's almost dawn. You'd better take a rest. It won't be too late to look for him tomorrow." The queen walked behind King Nanjiang and beat him on his shoulders.
"I can't sleep because I can't find this little bitch! Where did she hide? Could it be that she can still go to heaven and earth?" The King of Southern Xinjiang seemed to be challenged by someone's IQ. He couldn't find Luo Lianyi and was unwilling to do so.
"In my opinion, the person who saved her must be the Prince of Xiling. He may have been prepared for fear of being searched by the king and hid her in another place. But when they left, the princess would definitely disguise herself and mix with them. The king
Let’s make another sneak attack, so we won’t be able to find her,” the queen said.
"You are right. I want to see who is the winner in this cat-and-mouse game." The King of Southern Xinjiang finally relaxed his eyebrows. He yawned and got on the dragon bed with the help of the queen.
Liu Fan watched them from the rooftop and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This old guy was finally going to sleep. If he didn't sleep, it would be dawn!
In the blink of an eye, the King of Nanjiang was snoring like thunder, but the queen seemed to have lost sleep. She sat next to the King of Nanjiang, lost in thought.
Liu Fan escaped from his arms with a small bottle and blew into the room. A sweet fragrance drifted into the room.
After a while, the Queen of Southern Xinjiang finally leaned on the bed and fell asleep.
Liu Fan lifted up a large tile, floated from the roof to the bedside, took out the scissors he had prepared, cut off a strand of hair on each of the couple's heads, and hid it in his arms.
He jumped up to the roof, covered the tiles, turned around suddenly and wanted to leave, but saw Liu Huo standing in front of him with a half-smiling smile.
"Go away!" Liu Fan shouted in a low voice.
Liu Huo remained motionless, looking curiously at him with empty hands.
