♂?，，

  Yelü Hongji replied: "Shi Wei and I think the same! Li Yuanhao doing this obviously doesn't put our Liao country in his eyes, we can't help but teach him a lesson."

  Chen Yuan was stunned by his words, this kid is getting more and more ruthless, always wanting to go teach people a lesson, maybe he got hooked on it after beating Ye Lü Shu Bao that one time.

  Chen Yuan hastily advised: "Your Highness, please calm down. This Li Yuankui is not like Yelü Xianbao. If we fight him, it may lead to very serious consequences. Most importantly, it seems that we can't beat him."

  Yelü Lüjing also knew that her marriage was actually a transaction of mutual deception between the two countries, so she could only be angry. She had never hoped that Li Yuangui would really like her, nor did she expect that after suffering grievances, Emperor Xingzong of Liao would stand up for her.

  She knew in her heart that this was just the beginning and that she would have to endure even more humiliation, loneliness, and pain, with no one able to share her burden.

  Yelü Lüjing calmed herself down, forcing a smile: "Forget it, let's go out for a walk. Chen Shimiao, would you like to accompany me and Hong Ji to stroll around the street?"

  Chen Yuan nodded: "I'm more than happy to, but I don't know where the princess wants to go?"

  Yelü Lüjing said: "Whatever, as long as there's something to pass the time, it's fine."

  Yelü Hongji immediately showed interest and took a step forward, saying: "Sister, how about we go to that welfare place?"

  Yelü Lüojina glared at him: "If you want to go there, go yourself!"

  Yanjing City not only imitated Bianjing of the Song Dynasty when it was built, but also followed the same path as Bianjing in its later development. Even those high-ranking officials and nobles were emulating the literati of the Song Dynasty, so there were many places for leisure activities.

  Tea houses and wine shops stood in great numbers, while gambling dens and brothels were everywhere. Chen Yuan brought Yelü Lüjie and Yelü Shuobao to a tea house on the second floor of a sky bridge, where they ordered a elegant room. As they sat drinking tea, they could see below them the common people engaged in various occupations: some selling food, others performing acrobatics, and still others practicing various handicrafts.

  Yelü Chucai's eyes were fixed on a dough figurine stall, where a man in his thirties from the Song Dynasty was sitting. Various dough lumps changed shape under his hands and instantly turned into different shapes, including monkeys, tigers, and even a large Guan Yu holding a green dragon crescent blade.

  A woman stood beside the stall, loudly hawking for the man, occasionally taking a towel from her waist to wipe away the sweat on his forehead.

  There was also a child, about four or five years old, sitting on a bench with the man, holding a piece of dough in his hand. Although he couldn't shape it no matter how hard he tried, he still concentrated on kneading it.

  Yelü Hongji looked at Yelü Lüjing's eyes and immediately said, "Which face do you want, sister? I'll go buy one for you now."

  Yelü Lüjing actually saw that it wasn't the face of the person, she just felt that this family was much happier than herself. After hearing Yelü Hongji say so, she nodded in agreement: "Uh-huh."

  Yelü Hongji smiled and said, "I know sister likes fine horses, I'll go down and have him pick out the most beautiful one." After finishing speaking, he got up and left the room, going downstairs to buy noodles.

  Yelü Lü walked to the window and gazed out at the bustling streets below, then softly sighed: "Shi Mei, can you hug me?"

  Chen Yuan slowly walked behind her, but instead of hugging her, he said with a teasing tone: "What if I don't agree?"

  Yelü Lüjing suddenly turned around and threw herself into Chen Yuan's arms, holding him tightly: "Shimei, I'm so scared!"

  Chen Yuan gently stroked her back with his hand: "I know what you're afraid of,"

  The words were not finished, Yelü Lüjie interrupted her, her voice was a little choked: "No, I don't know. I am a princess, from the time I was born, I knew what my fate would be in the future. When Father Emperor promised the Tanguts, I knew how my future days would be spent. In fact, even if there were no Tanguts, it might have been the Mongols to the north, or the Jurchen people, or the Song people."

  Chen Yuanshi really didn't know what to say now, he just gently stroked her hair.

  Yelü Lüjing continued, "I'm not afraid of these things, I've never been afraid of them, really! But Chen Shimei, why did you appear? Do you know what I've been thinking about for the past few days? You let me experience the joy of being a woman, but also made me taste the bitterness of longing! I thought I could put it down, but these past few days I realized that maybe I can endure everything, but without you, I will die!"

  Although Chen Yuan had been through many romantic affairs, he thought he had a strong immunity to women's sweet words. Now facing such a devoted woman's dialogue, his heart still rippled with waves, and his hands tightened unconsciously, holding Ye Lü Xian tightly in his arms. He said: "The golden wind and jade dew meet once, and they surpass the countless beauties of the world! Shi Mei is able to win the favor of the princess, this love has no way to repay."

  He was really moved, and also felt a little guilty. Thinking that he was about to use her to attack Li Yuanhao, without considering that the one who would be hurt the most by attacking Li Yuanhao would definitely be Yelü Lüjing. He secretly made up his mind, after going back, he would think of other ways to deal with Li Yuanhao, and must not think about using this woman again.

  "The golden wind and jade dew meet, and they surpass the countless beauties of the human world. This saying is really nice to hear. But I don't want to be the Weaving Girl in Chinese legend, nor do I want him to be my Cowherd! Ye Lü Lian suddenly broke free from Chen Yuan's arms, her eyes extremely determined as she said: "Let's go, will you elope with me?"

  Chen Yuan was immediately awakened from the tender feelings of just now, elopement? This is not fun, it's deadly! As a princess of Liao, I'm going to elope with her? The Liao state won't let me off, the Song dynasty won't let me off, and Li Yuanying will be even more unlikely to let me off. Where can we run to? Can't we just go to Changbai Mountain to live as savages or set sail on the sea?

  I can give up everything for this big tree, but I'm not capable of doing so. My family has a wife and children, in Bianjing there's a young wife, in Yanjing there's another young wife, how could I be so irresponsible as to abandon them?

  Wait a minute, it seemed like something just flashed in his mind, and then suddenly disappeared. Chen Yuan wanted to catch it again, but he couldn't find any trace of it.

  He immediately repeated his thoughts from just now, and Ye Lu saw Chen Yuan's stunned expression suddenly become somewhat displeased: "Speak up! If you're willing, we can leave now, Hong Ji will help us stall for time. If not, then don't come looking for me again in the future!"

  Chen Yuan waved his hand, indicating for her to wait a moment.

  Yelü Lüjing didn't care about that much, and continued to talk about the private elopement plan she had just thought of: "I know what I'm afraid of, I've thought it through. Let's find a small island near Liaodong now and live there for a few years until this matter has blown over, then we can come back."

  Chen Yuan looked at Yelü Lü and suddenly laughed, laughing extremely happily! He finally thought of what he had caught earlier!

  It was the map drawn on that piece of grass paper. I have been thinking about where that map is, and no matter how hard I think, I just can't figure it out.

  Just now suddenly remembered the sea, Yelü Chucai suddenly mentioned a small island, Chen Yuan finally remembered! That Zhang Kuangzheng must be rescued, he is not important, but very important!

  The map he had and the Hawaiian Islands map he saw on the world map looked very similar! Is it possible? Had someone gone to Hawaii during the Song Dynasty? Chen Yuan couldn't believe it at all! But if that map was just a coincidence, Chen Yuan didn't believe it even more!

  Zhang Kuang is absolutely right! He's an absolute talent!

  Seeing a smile on Chen Yuan's face, the princess was overjoyed: "You agreed? That's great, let's go now!"

  Chen Yu was startled and immediately thought of himself not wanting to provoke Zhang Kuangzheng for now, so he had to placate the person in front of him first. Just as he was thinking of an excuse to make this princess give up her idea of eloping with him, a voice came from outside the door: "Shu Bao, young master, you can't go in!"

  Yelü Lü hastily dodged to the side, creating distance between her and Chen Yuan. Her face first flushed with a faint redness, followed by an angry expression, clearly extremely dissatisfied with Yelü Shuobao's sudden appearance here. However, Chen Yuan felt that Yelü Shuobao's arrival was simply too timely!

  Ma Sung said to Yelü Lüjie: "I'll go and see what he's up to."

  "Why can't I go in? Is Hongji inside?" Yelü Shubao's voice showed that his injury was almost healed, at least he had no shortage of breath.

  Xiao Huwei didn't dare to stop him either, last time Yelü Hongji was there to back him up, this time no one spoke up, relying on just himself as a guard he wouldn't dare oppose the Beiyuan King.

  "Hong Ji is the best person to ask, I just so happen to have some questions for him." Yelü Chubao's footsteps didn't stop at all, dragging his injured leg, he took big strides forward. Xiao Huwei only loudly tried to dissuade him, what he hoped most was that the noise would startle the princess inside and make her come out to negotiate with Yelü Chubao, as he himself wasn't of a high enough status.

  The door opened and Chen Yuan came out, and he was stunned for a moment. Yelü Chongbao was also stunned.

  Chen Yuan was stunned because, beside Yelü Xiezhuo, there were actually Dangxiang's Li Yuanying and a team of Liao soldiers with bright armor. And after a moment of astonishment, Yelü Xiezhuo's face suddenly turned ferocious: "Haha, Chen Shimei, the Song people have a saying that 'enemies meet on a narrow road!' It might be said for me."

  Chen Yuan was not afraid of Yelü Xiyin taking action now, he saw that his own expression at the time was enough to explain that he brought this pair of Liao soldiers not for himself.

  So the answer is only one, Yelü Renshi must have known about Xiao Huanqiu's disappearance and is now searching for clues. At this time, even if Yelü Shubao was arrogant, he didn't dare to cause more trouble in front of Yelü Hongji and Yelü Lianzhen.

  He was worried about Li Yuanhao, and he had just been alone with Yelü Lüjie in the room earlier. She was Li Yuanhao's nominal fiancée after all. What would happen if Li Yuanhao saw Yelü Lüjie?

  Chen Yuan hadn't thought it through yet, when he heard the sound of Yelü Lüjie's voice behind him: "Shu Bao! Don't go too far! Let Chen Shimei open up first, I'll see how dare he acts today!"

  That tone was clearly that of a strong woman protecting her husband! As she spoke, she pushed Chen Yuan away and came out of the room herself!

  Yelü Lüjing stood in front of Chen Yuan, and the first thing she saw was Li Yuankui's face, which was shockingly pale! She too was stunned.

  Chen Yuan's mind was racing fast, but at this moment, he really didn't know what to say!
