Chapter 302: Acting on Order
He thought about the plan to escape in his mind, but in the end, Zhang Zong didn't know when he fell asleep. When he opened his eyes again, it was already bright outside, and his plan had already taken a rough prototype, which made him feel a little relaxed.
Zhang Zong stood up and washed up, then opened the door, but what he didn't expect was that as the door was opened, a petite body fell from outside the door to his feet, which surprised him and said, "Wan'er? Why are you sitting outside the door?"
Zhang Zong said and helped Wan'er up. He saw that Wan'er looked sleepy at this time, as if she had not woken up yet, which made Zhang Zong stunned, and then said again: "You...you have been outside the door last night?"
Wan'er finally woke up a little bit at this time. She rubbed her eyes and nodded and said, "Well, I am worried that the young master will have something to do, so I kept guarding outside the door, but I didn't expect that I would fall asleep in the end."
When Zhang Zong heard this, his heartbeat also rushed. In any case, Wan'er was with him. In addition, he suddenly thought that Wan'er could also help him plan his escape. However, seeing that she was not awake, Zhang Zong felt a little distressed, so he helped her to lie down on his bed, intending to discuss with her when she woke up.
Wan'er was indeed exhausted. Yesterday, she stayed outside Zhang Zong's door all night, and she fell asleep in a daze until dawn. Even after chatting with Zhang Zong just now, she still did not relieve Wan'er's sleepiness. So after lying on the bed, she soon fell into a deep sleep again.
Looking at Wan'er in the sleeping state, Zhang Zong sighed softly, then helped her cover the quilt, then turned around and left the bedroom. The sun was shining outside the window, and Zhang Zong felt a little hungry, so he went to the kitchen to cook some porridge and fry a few more side dishes.
However, just as Zhang Zong was cooking, he suddenly saw a head appearing outside the window. When he saw him, he shouted in surprise: "Brother Shi, you are awake!"
"Sanlang? When did you come?" Zhang Zong asked with a surprised expression when he saw Xue Shao. Although the sun had risen now, it was still early in the morning. With his understanding of Xue Shao, the other party obviously would not get up so early.
"I didn't come when, but I didn't leave at all. I slept in the room next to me yesterday, but I was woken up by the fragrance of your cooking." Xue Shao smiled again at this time. Although such a big thing happened yesterday, he was a big-hearted person, and after a night of sleep, he felt relieved.
Zhang Zong was also a little moved when he learned that Xue Shao had not left, but he didn't say anything, but made a few more dishes that the other party liked. Xue Shao also went to wash up, and then ran into the kitchen to help.
After a while, the food was ready. After Xue Shao brought the food to the table, he also called Zhang Zong to have dinner together. Speaking of which, since Xue Shao got married, Zhang Zong has had many things to be busy with, so they rarely did not eat and chat together like they are now.
"Brother Shi, you... what are your plans for the future?" Xue Shao, who was eating, suddenly asked Zhang Zong tentatively.
"Plan?" Zhang Zong pondered for a moment when he heard this, then shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I don't know, just take one step at a time!"
Zhang Zong did not tell Xue Shao about his elopement with Ning'er. He was not because he did not believe Xue Shao, but because he did not want to pull him into the water. After all, he was the imperial consort. If he was caught escaping from marriage, even if he didn't die, it would be a serious crime. Others who participated would be implicated, so Xue Shao still didn't know that it was a good idea.
"Let's take a step?" Xue Shao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then smiled bitterly, "This doesn't look like you I know!"
"Then what else do you think I can do?" Zhang Zong also smiled bitterly at this time and asked back.
"Maybe..." Xue Shao hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Maybe Brother Shi, you can take Ning'er away and find a place where no one can find you to live, so that you don't have to pay attention to the marriage anymore!"
Zhang Zong was also moved when he heard this. Xue Shao actually thought of him. This made him suddenly have an impulse to tell the other party about his plan. However, in the end he suppressed the impulse. After all, Xue Shao couldn't help much if he knew it, and it might implicate him.
"No, let's not talk about whether Ning'er is willing to leave with me. In addition, there are too many things in Chang'an City that I can't let go." Zhang Zong finally shook his head and "rejected" Xue Shao's proposal.
"I know Ning'er, she will definitely be willing!" Xue Shao saw that Zhang Zong was unwilling, and immediately said anxiously again.
"Even if Ning'er is willing, but the world is so great that we can escape, I'm afraid that as soon as we leave Chang'an, we will be caught by the people of the court, and nothing will be changed at that time." Zhang Zong shook his head again and said.
"Brother Shi, you..." Xue Shao stood up angrily when he saw Zhang Zong refuse again, but in the end he suppressed the anger in his heart and finally smiled bitterly, "Forget it, it's really a bit difficult for you to leave the capital, Brother Shi, please have a good rest, I'll leave first!"
Xue Shao said and turned around and left here. Zhang Zong sighed as he looked at his departure back. He knew that Xue Shao was very disappointed with his answer, and even a little angry. But now is not the time to defend himself, and he will definitely understand his painstaking efforts in the future.
However, what Zhang Zong didn't expect was that just as Xue Shao was about to be discharged from the hospital, he suddenly heard a quarrel outside, which made him a little strange. He immediately stepped outside the hospital gate, but found that there were a few more guards in front of his home at some point, and Xue Shao was also arguing with the leader of one of the guards.
"What's going on? Why do you appear here?" Zhang Zong recognized the guard leader at a glance as someone around Li Hong. The other guards also looked familiar. They were probably all guards of the East Palace, but it was a bit strange that they suddenly appeared in front of their house.
"Brother Shi, you are here just in time. When I came out, I suddenly found them guarding the door. They didn't say anything about why they appeared here, so I was a little angry!" Xue Shao also explained at this time.
"Criminal! Mr. Zhang! My subordinates are also ordered to act. Please don't blame me!" The guard leader bowed to Zhang Zong and Xue Shao, with a helpless look on his face. Of course, he knew that these two were not easy to mess with, but with orders, he had no choice.
