His apology made Shuangshuang feel embarrassed. They were not relatives, so why did he say this?

She pulled the corner of her mouth and smiled dryly, "My matter has nothing to do with you, you don't have to say sorry." She thought about it and asked him again: "Why did you bring me here?"

All the men in black were dead at that time, there was no danger if they stayed there, and her injuries were not serious. She couldn't understand why Ye still took her away.

In the quiet room, there was only the sound of each other's shallow breathing. Ye raised his eyes to look at her. In the candlelight, her stunning facial features had a gentler and softer beauty than before, just like the cute little girl next door. Her dark pupils

Her beautiful face was reflected in the air, her breath was filled with the faint fragrance of her body, and a kind of throbbing arose spontaneously from the bottom of her heart.

He wanted to kiss her.

"Hey, why aren't you talking?" He remained silent and just stared at her. Shuangshuang raised one eyebrow and looked at him suspiciously.

Her inquiry made him suddenly come to his senses, and a trace of embarrassment flashed across his deep black eyes.

"It's not suitable for you there." He adjusted his mentality in a very short time and uttered these words quietly, "So, I want to take you away from the imperial city."

Huh? Why does this sound like you want to take her to elope?

Shuangshuang's eyelids twitched heavily, but this time it was her left eyelid.

"How do you know it's not suitable for me?" she asked with raised eyebrows, her eyes a little dark, mixed with a hint of coldness.

In fact, she knew nothing about the man in front of her. She had never even seen his appearance. Although he appeared every time when she was in trouble, it also made Shuangshuang wary. She couldn't touch it.

Through him, she couldn't figure out why he would lend a helping hand to her.

One second, he may be your benefactor, but no one can predict what will happen in the next second. It is not impossible that he will kill her one day.

Ye frowned, and he asked instead: "Do you want to stay in the capital, marry Xiao Yixuan, and live with him for the rest of your life?"

"..."

Shuangshuang frowned and stared at him without blinking. The two sides looked at each other silently, but neither could guess the true emotions in each other's hearts. For a long time, Shuangshuang looked away and chuckled, "Of course I don't want to."

Of course not.

She said it so simply, without even the slightest hesitation. The face hidden in the black mask made it impossible to see his expression at this time, but his fingers were bent a little stiffly.

"I want to be free. If I become Princess Xuan in the future, I may be bound for the rest of my life." She said with a faint look.

Ye's eyes were deep, and he thought for a moment, then asked: "Then why did you agree to marry him in the first place?"

Shuangshuang smiled, her eyes bright and bright, "Because he is a good man, because I need to declare the identity of the princess, because I want to leave the White House, it's that simple."

She doesn't care what Yehui will think of her when she hears the truth, and she doesn't like lying.

Ye's sword eyebrows frowned and relaxed, then frowned again, and relaxed again, repeated several times, but he was covered by a mask, and Shuangshuang didn't notice his weirdness.

He could understand the first and third reasons, but...

"Why do you need the title of Princess Xuan?"

"It's not to make Xiao Hanlin give up." Shuangshuang answered truthfully, she curled her lips, "Anyway, Xiao Yixuan married me for happiness. Since we all have needs, let's just get married."

She was talking to herself, but Ye's eyebrows were tightly knitted together, as if she was suppressing her anger, "He married you for happiness? Who told you?"

Shuangshuang raised her eyebrows and looked at him sideways, her lips curved in amusement, "Why do you have so many questions?"

He didn't speak, just looked at her, Shuangshuang raised her eyebrows, "This was all arranged by that bitch Bai Yunxi. She was afraid that I would take away Xiao Tinghao from her, so she asked Concubine Shu to encourage the emperor to celebrate King Xuan's birthday that day.

I heard what she said with my own ears."

Ye, "Then you have no feelings for Xiao Yixuan at all?"

"Yes." The two words came out of her mouth, and she added: "He is a good person, and it is quite suitable to be a friend."

After knowing her for such a long time, there is no doubt that Xiao Yixuan is kind to her. He is gentle and considerate, and everything he does can touch her softest heartstrings.

But no matter what, she didn't believe it was out of love.

Yehuo stood up, with a faint anger surrounding him, "Since you want freedom and are not really willing to get married, then don't go back. After you recover from your injury, I will send you to a farther place.

No one will tie you down."

Shuangshuang didn't understand what was wrong with him. She looked at his leaving back and curled her lips in contempt. When she saw him walking to the door, she shouted, "Hey, I'm hungry and want to eat!"

"I'll bring it to you later."

Shuangshuang pursed her lips and smiled, shook her head, and leaned comfortably on the bedside. She lifted the quilt, looked at the injured leg, and frowned.

Who would want to kill her? Bai Yunxi? She probably doesn’t have the guts to hire a killer, right?

I couldn't think of a single suspect in my mind, but instead I remembered what Ye had just said about taking her away.

She was assassinated in the Imperial Temple and disappeared. I don’t know what is happening in the capital now. How will Xiao Yixuan feel after knowing this news? Will he be worried?

Their wedding is less than ten days away, and the bride-to-be has disappeared. How will the wedding end?

Countless question marks piled up in her mind, and Shuangshuang became agitated.

If she could be free by leaving, why couldn't she be happy?

When he left the room at night, in the courtyard, a tall figure stood under the moonlight. When he saw him coming out, he curled his lips and asked, "Do you really plan to do this?"

"...Hmm." He gritted his teeth and replied.

"Don't regret it?"

This time, he couldn't speak.

The man laughed. In the night, his eyes were bright and sharp, "If you regret it one day, just tell me. Don't think too much about the rest."

"Give me a few more days and I will take care of it."

"Okay, then I'll go back first." He walked over, patted him on the shoulder, then started using Qinggong and disappeared into the vast moonlight.

After standing alone in the courtyard for a while, Ye turned around and looked at the room where Shuangshuang was, a flash of darkness quickly flashed in his eyes.

As long as these few days are enough.

☆☆☆

Early in the morning, Shuangshuang was woken up by the loud crowing of a rooster not far away. It dawned very late in winter. Shuangshuang looked outside and saw that it was still gray and the light in the house was relatively dim. Her legs were inconvenient.

After moving, the night had not yet come, so she could only lie in bed with her eyes open and think about things.

About an hour later, the morning light shone in the sky, and the scene inside the house gradually became clearer. The door was gently pushed open, and Ye walked in. She saw Shuangshuang leaning on the bedside, saying hello to her, "It's so early.

Just woke up?"
