The whole Inn turned into a sea of fire, and the burning flame lit up the night.

Pei Yuan stood not far away and looked at everything.

Looking at the night, I seem to remember the moment when he died in his dream. That night, there were also fires everywhere. He ran out in panic, and an arrow flew through his heart.

He slowly clenched his fist and his face was gloomy.

This time, he will never die.

Pei Yuan turned his face and looked at the woman in the carriage. Princess eight carefully opened a corner of the curtain and looked uneasily at the post station.

Pei Yuan hooks the corner of his mouth without trace. He saved the eighth princess, who will keep him in mind.

He turned around faintly. At this time, eight Princesses' eyes fell on him. Seeing her tall and handsome side face, eight Princesses' heart was slightly warm.

It seems that with this man, she will be very safe and have a sense of sureness and reliability.

After a moment, the dark guard of the seventh Prince's sect came back and reported to Peiyuan, "Lord Pei, the mountain bandits have been cleaned up."

"Are you alive?" Pei Yuan asked. He came to rescue the eighth princess, but when he really came to the post station, he found a trace of strangeness. The sword technique of the mountain thief is not like the mountain thief, but like a well-trained guard.

Something strange happened. When he asked the dark guard to do it, he left one or two questions alive.

The dark guard shook his head, "there is no living mouth. The mountain thieves know they can't escape, so they wipe their necks. Their subordinates can't stop them if they want to."

Pei Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, which made things more strange. He was just caught and wiped his neck. He was so not afraid of death... It was like the style of a dead man.

Someone wants to murder the eighth princess?

Pei Yuan thought and turned his face to look at the carriage that Princess eight was riding, thinking in his heart.

The eighth princess did many evil things and offended many people when she was in the palace, among which the Mu family offended the most. Mrs. Mu was killed by eight princesses with a whip at a banquet.

Princess BA was also punished for this and was imprisoned in the villa for several years. Now the emperor is willing to forgive her and let her return to the palace.

Did the Mu family do this?

Pei Yuan's face sank and he had a guess in his heart, but he didn't mention it to the outside world. He said faintly: "in that case, stop."

"Yes." the dark guards answered.

Pei Yuan turned around, returned to the carriage and said, "girl, those mountain thieves have been cleaned up. Girl, don't be afraid."

The eighth princess heard Pei Yuan's words, reached out and opened the curtain of the car, raised her face and looked at him, "are they all dead?"

"Yes, it's all cleaned up." Pei Yuan answered in a gentle voice. His quiet voice made the listeners gradually lose heart. Princess eight's pale face just slightly recovered her blood color and stopped shaking.

"Girl, I don't know if there are any relatives of the girl in the post station?"

The eighth Princess grabbed her long clothes and shook her head. Her maid died, and the forbidden guards disappeared. It seems that they all died under the knife of mountain thieves. If they were still alive, they would come to find her at the first time.

Peiyuan paused and asked again, "where is the girl's home?"

Princess eight's nervous heart lifted up. She was helpless now. It was more difficult to go back to the capital alone with her than to go to heaven. Besides, she is a great princess. No one has ever been reduced to the wild.

She subconsciously grabbed Pei Yuan's clothes and said, "young master, my family is in the capital. I don't know if you can escort me back to the capital?"

She didn't dare tell the identity of the eight Princesses for fear that the man wouldn't believe it.

Now men are her only hope.

Pei Yuan looked at the eight princess's face, didn't expose her identity, and nodded, "coincidentally, I'm also going back to the capital this time. I can take the girl with me."

Princess BA's face was happy. "Great! I'll give you a big reward when I get back to the capital..." at this point, she immediately stopped talking and said, "I'll repay you. I don't know what to call you..."

"Pei Yuan." Pei Yuan said faintly.

"Young master Pei." the eighth princess smiled and remembered the name in her heart.

Pei Yuan didn't stop and asked the dark guard to station in the nearby forest. The post station has been burned down. Even if you stay here, there is no place to live.

He gave up his carriage to the eighth Princess and rode on his own.

The eighth Princess sat in the carriage. The carriage was not expensive, but it seemed like the most comfortable palace for her who narrowly escaped death. Her body trembled with fear at the thought that she had almost been bullied / humiliated.

She firmly grasped Pei Yuan's long clothes on her, buried her face in it, smelled the light and cold fragrance, and calmed down.

"Pei Yuan... Pei Yuan..."

She murmured a few words and found the name more and more pleasant.

The next day, it was dawn, and Pei Yuan ordered everyone to hurry.

If he guesses right, someone wants to deliberately murder the princess. If he doesn't succeed once, he is likely to hunt down the eighth Princess again. To be on the safe side, we have to rush back to the capital as soon as possible.

The party hurried on without stopping.

Pei Yuan rode and walked in front.

Eight Princess youyou woke up, subconsciously opened the carriage and looked forward. She saw Pei Yuan riding a horse. The silhouette of the sun fell on him, reflecting him like a relegated fairy.

Pei Yuan seemed to notice the sight coming from the rear, reined in the reins and slowed down the speed of riding.

When he got to the carriage, he said in a warm voice, "girl, there may be mountain bandits nearby, so we should hurry back to the capital as soon as possible. We may be tired on the way, and I hope you can bear it."

Princess Ba sat in the carriage all night and felt a backache. She had never suffered like this, but she didn't feel very tired when she heard Peiyuan's gentle words.

She lowered her face slightly. "I am very grateful that you are willing to take qin'er back to the capital. Qin'er will not drag you back..."

"That's good. If there's any inconvenience, you can talk to me." Pei Yuan smiled.

Looking at Pei Yuan's smile, the eighth princess only felt her face red, nodded imperceptibly, and fell the curtain.

The curtain blocked the sight of the two people. When the eighth Princess couldn't see it, Pei Yuan's smile shrank and his face returned to a cold and gloomy appearance. In his eyes, the eighth princess was just a pawn to help him get to a high position.

After a long journey, Pei Yuan ordered people to stop and have a rest.

The eighth Princess sat in the carriage all night. She felt backache and wanted to go down for a walk.

As soon as I opened the curtain and was ready to come out, I suddenly remembered my lame leg and flashed a dark color in my eyes.

What would Pei Yuan think of her if he knew she had a disease in her legs and feet?

At this time, she hated her disabled leg.

"Girl." he stretched out his hands. Pei Yuan looked at her quietly and said, "girl, let me help you out of the carriage. It will be uncomfortable to sit in the carriage for a long time. Just come down and walk."

The eighth Princess bit her lower lip and didn't hold his hand.

Her legs and feet are inconvenient. She limps very ugly. She was teased a lot when she was a child. She doesn't want Peiyuan to see her legs.

"No... I don't want to go..."

The eighth princess wanted to retract her hand and return to the carriage. Unexpectedly, Peiyuan suddenly held her hand, looked into her eyes and said, "don't be afraid, girl. I'll hold the girl."

Under Pei Yuan's gentle words, the eighth princess took his hand and stepped out of the carriage.

With her feet on the ground, she tried her best to walk smoothly without limping.

But her legs and feet didn't listen to her. Although Peiyuan supported her, she still limped. She clenched her fist tightly. Her palms were full of sweat. She bowed her head deeply and didn't dare to see Pei Yuan.

"Childe, don't help me..."

"I was born like this. I'm lame. It's not good." said the eighth princess, biting her lower lip, her face pale and her shoulders trembling.

She didn't dare to look up at Pei Yuan, afraid to see the disdain on his face.

Unexpectedly, Pei far didn't loosen her hand, but held it more tightly.

"Don't worry, miss. Pei won't let the girl fall." he said softly, holding Princess eight forward step by step.

Princess eight suddenly raised her face. At this moment, Pei Yuan's words affected her heartstrings. The coldness of her heart affected her a little, and tears blurred her vision.

The temperature of Peiyuan's palm reached her through her clothes, and she felt warm.

They walked slowly to the river.

When the eighth Princess saw the clear river, she immediately squatted down and washed away the blood on her face and neck.

After washing, I raised my face and saw the white things jumping in the grass, hairy, like a rabbit. Her eyes lit up, pointed to the front and said, "it's a little rabbit!"

However, the rabbit ran fast, jumped twice and disappeared.

The eighth Princess tilted her mouth. She liked this furry thing very much. She was particularly happy to see the snow-white rabbit. But the rabbit ran so fast that she couldn't catch it with her legs and feet.

She sighed in her heart and stopped thinking.

They walked back to the motorcade, and eight princesses got into the carriage.

The motorcade didn't go on for a long time. The eighth Princess felt bored in the carriage. She opened the curtain and wanted to see what Peiyuan did.

Pei Yuan came from a distance with a cage woven of rattan in his hand. In the cage, there was a snow-white rabbit.

The eighth princess looked at the past as soon as her eyes lit up.

Pei Yuan went to the carriage, handed over the cage and said, "I caught the rabbit when I saw that the girl likes it. It's a long way back to Beijing. With the rabbit, the girl won't be too lonely."

The eighth princess took the cage and was very happy. "Is this the rabbit you specially caught for me?"

Peiyuan didn't answer and nodded faintly.

Princess eight smiled more brightly. At this moment, Peiyuan completely walked into her heart.

Pei Yuan ordered everyone to continue on their way.

In the carriage, Princess eight looked at the snow-white rabbit in the cage and stroked it carefully. The fine rabbit hair felt soft.

The eight Lord looked at the rabbit and his thoughts floated to the distance. "Pei Yuan, this man is so gentle and worthy of being entrusted with a lifelong lover... Rabbit, rabbit, do you think he will like me?"

"When I return to the capital, will he be surprised when I restore the identity of the eighth Princess and appear in front of him again?"

The eighth princess can't wait to return to the capital and wants to appear in front of Peiyuan with the most perfect appearance.
