In a small village called Jiutian Blue Village between Linbi Mausoleum and Hanyi City, where the Nine Swords Gate is located, a convoy came today. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Such a procession is rarely seen in this quaint and humble village, because it is not a transportation fortress that must be passed through Hanyi City to any major city in the south, but a dilapidated village with a backdrop of mountains, and it is very awkward.

It was a very unusual thing for them to have a team passing by, not to mention that everyone in this team could see that their status was noble, and they were by no means civilians, and those few ordinary looking carriages but the mysterious runes engraved on them showed their extraordinary.

The children quickly ran to the road to help remove some stones on the road, and fill in the potholes on the road to help the team move forward, laughing and seeing what rewards they could get.

"Give them some money. The carriage did not stop, the carriage imposed by the Stability Rune did not shake, and in the carriage in the middle, Liu Chen looked at the barren scene outside, and his heart was slightly sour.

"Yes, Lord Shire. After Chen Xueling bowed, she bowed out of the carriage and explained the reward.

Soon there was the sound of copper coins rolling, and the sound of these children rushing to grab copper coins, and even some adults came to participate in the procession.

The rice fields on one side of the busy season are full of farmers harvesting golden rice, and some of them hurriedly came after seeing this scene, leaving their work behind.

Liu Chenyi is still the same disguised appearance, but with a veil on his face, any gaze that has no intention of passing through the curtain can only see a foot of white silk.

She looked at the barren scenery outside through the gap of the curtain swinging slightly, and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, she knew very little about the outside world, so she deliberately took a detour all the way to see the world, but she didn't expect that most of what she saw was not as beautiful as she expected.

She was already upset by leaving the sect and returning to the place she didn't like in Hanyi City, and her mood became worse and worse.

She took out the dagger wrapped in silk cloth from her arms, and slowly wiped it with her fingers on the face of the dagger, very gently, as if caressing a newborn child.

The dagger was bright in the mirror, reflecting a corner of her cheek, looking at the slightly strange and very beautiful self inside, she didn't know what she was thinking, but the boredom on her pretty face quickly dissipated, and a different kind of serenity appeared.

The voices outside faded away, and soon faded into obscurity.

Chen Xueling, wrapped in a black robe, returned to the carriage.

"County Lord, it may take four months to walk like this. Chen Xueling said.

Liu Chenyi nodded and said, "I know." ”

Chen Xueling looked at her calm and emotionless eyes, and she didn't know what to say.

knew that she didn't want to go back, and she also wanted to see more of the outside world, so she would give up the obviously fast waterway, and even deliberately let them take a long detour, which was somewhat willful and unreasonable, but thinking of her pitiful fate, even Chen Xueling, who was a slave, felt a trace of sympathy and pity, so she agreed to her approach.

And her disgust with her fate, as well as her secret grief and indignation for her fate that was born helplessly, Chen Xueling has personally felt it, and she understands it more clearly than anyone else, so she chose to connive more.

At least now I can give poor her more freedom, and when she returns to Nahanyi City, there will be no more freedom.

……

The carriage moved forward without hurry.

The sunlight outside sifted into the carriage, and the inside of the carriage was very bright, and the cumbersome runes on the walls of the carriage absorbed the heat carried by the sun, so the temperature in the whole carriage was mild, even in this hot summer, it would not feel stuffy.

Liu Chenyi kept his head down.

Seeing Liu Chenyi slowly wiping the dagger and losing her soul, Chen Xueling's heart felt some pain.

Chen Xueling hesitated for a long time and said, "County Lord." ”

"Huh?" Liu Chenyi came back to his senses and looked up.

Chen Xueling said: "You should understand the meaning of Your Highness, the eldest princess, and Lord Liu. ”

A mist appeared in Liu Chenyi's eyes, and the dagger in front of her became blurred.

Chen Xueling watched her grow up and knew that she was simple, but in fact, she knew a lot of things, and said after being silent for a long time: "Your fate cannot be controlled, and some of the cuts still have to be understood." ”

Liu Chenyi nodded, slowly put the dagger back into the silk cloth, folded it and put it back into his arms, and said, "I know." ”

The expressions of the two of them are a little dignified and helpless, they actually have a common attitude on many things, but in the face of reality, Chen Xueling can see more clearly, so she stands on the most correct side, which is why she will be arranged to accompany Liu Chenyi.

"Po Chen. ”

"Huh?"

"Isn't it...... Is this called liking?"

Chen Xueling was silent for a long time, raising her head to look at her clear but confused eyes.

Chen Xueling slowly held her hand in the palm of her hand with both hands, and said, "Whether it is or not, you shouldn't take it to heart." ”

Liu Chenyi was a little displeased with her attitude, pulled her hand out of her hand, slowly lifted the curtains, and looked at the regressive lush scenery outside, a faint red appeared on her fair cheeks, and it was not just Yangguan rendering, but her face was self-reliant.

"I know it is. She looked out and said as if muttering to herself.

She has seen very few people, and there are only a few emotions she has produced, but she understands that this emotion is different from any other person, and it is different from any other person.

She knew very well how she felt when she faced him, she knew very well the change in her emotions towards him, she knew very well the inner rush of her heart when she knew that she was going to be separated from him, she knew very well why she stubbornly wanted to be in front of him.

She likes him to see how good he is, she likes his serious look, he likes his always rigorous appearance in the face of problems, he likes him to be like many other men Nanyang casts a dirty gaze, she likes him to peek at himself occasionally, she likes him to eat what belongs to her making, she likes and hopes that she can leave something in his life forever.

She tasted the sweet and sour taste for the first time, but she knew that that thing was just like it.

I just like him.

……

Seeing Liu Chenyi like this, Chen Xueling felt mixed in her heart, and said: "County Lord, this is not the emotion you should have, you also know that if Your Highness knew that you would have such thoughts in the short period of time when you went south, they would never have let you out of Hanyi City." ”

"This is not something you should be worried about, and the more you read it now, the more painful it will be in the future. ”

Liu Chen looked out the window and slowly rested his head on the edge of the window, and the eyes that were gradually blurring had already explained everything.

She understands these truths.

That's why she was so uncomfortable, so the night before parting, she was so hypocritical and stubborn.

……

……

didn't say anything more, Chen Xueling chose to keep silent.

There was silence in the carriage, except for the sound of the soothing wind outside the window, and the sound of the horses' hooves, and the branches of the trees swaying in the wind, laughing like the funny cries of insects and birds.

The middle-aged man at the front of the line looked up at the scorching sky as a falcon fell from the sky.

On the falcon's leg, a red letterbox is strapped to it.

The falcon flapped its wings and slowly landed on the low branch of a dead tree at the front of the group.

The middle-aged man's face froze, because such a letter should not appear here. Although they had reported to the city of Hanyi where they were marching, and had told every town that was about to pass through that they had been escorted by additional troops and horses, it was impossible to reply in such a short time.

A man turned over and dismounted, took a letter from the falcon's leg, and handed it to the middle-aged man.

"My lord, it's a letter from the city of Hanyi. ”

The letter paper comes from the paper factory opened by the Liu family in Hanyi City, only sells Hanyi City people, its technology is unique, the paper produced is softer and fragrant than ordinary paper, of course, it is also much more expensive, and only the people in such a place as Hanyi City can generally afford to consume such paper.

The middle-aged man took the letter from his hand, opened it and looked at it cursoryly, his face changing slightly.

"Drive. Turning his horse's head, he walked to the white carriage in the middle of the line.

The line stopped.

"What's wrong?" Chen Xueling lifted the curtain.

The middle-aged man's face was heavy, he turned over and dismounted, and handed over the letterhead.

"Hanyi City's letter?" After getting the letter, Chen Xueling raised her eyebrows in surprise, and did not open it for the first time, but looked at the middle-aged man and said, "Who sent it?" ”

The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "I don't know, I don't understand why this letter is here, but he sent it here." ”

After Chen Xueling opened it with confusion, her face suddenly froze.

She understood why the letter was sent here.

For many people outside the Nine Swords Gate, Liu Chenyi's relationship with the protagonist in this letter may be unclear, thinking that they are just friends, but for the teachers and students in the Nine Swords Gate and for her who knows Liu Chenyi very well, she knows that it is not so simple.

A hint of hesitation appeared on Chen Xueling's face.

She turned her head to look at Liu Chenyi, Liu Chenyi still looked out of the car with a dull gaze, so that a very ordinary tree, there was endless scenery, in fact, her thoughts had already flown to an unknown number of miles.

Her dull gaze deeply pierced Chen Xueling's heart, and the distress on her face increased by three points, and she lowered the curtain and got back into the carriage.

She handed the letter to Liu Chenyi and said, "Jingyang is in prison." ”

Liu Chenyi was still six gods and no master one moment, and the next moment his face suddenly turned his head pale, and he said in a lost voice: "What?!"

Only then did she notice the letter paper in Chen Xueling's hand, and after quickly taking it and reading it quickly, there was no blood on her face.

"I don't know who sent it, but he seems to know the relationship between Jingyang and you, and he also knows your identity, otherwise he wouldn't have sent the letter here, pinning his hopes on you. ”

"How long will it take to return to Hanyi?" Liu Chenyi didn't hear what Chen Xueling was saying at all, and hurriedly asked.

"County Lord, you must not ......"

"How long will it take to return to Hanyi!" Liu Chenyi let out an angry roar, the delicate throat, this roar inevitably seemed particularly abrupt and out of line with his previous image, and everyone outside the carriage turned their heads in surprise.

Chen Xueling looked at Liu Chenyi calmly.

After a few breaths of silence, the anger in Liu Chenyi's eyes did not dissipate in the slightest, and the atmosphere in the room was suddenly solemn and deeply antagonistic.

"You know, even if you don't want to, I can get out of the carriage and go by myself. She looked stubborn.

Chen Xueling sighed deeply, she seemed to have aged a lot in these few breaths, she watched her grow up, but it was the first time she saw her angry.

You have to hurry slowly, it's you who rub the time, and it's you who want to rush back to Hanyi the fastest, that Jiayi, can you really give up your disgust and scruples?

"Now that we are going east to the canal, the letter and water conservancy department will prepare a hurry boat, and when we arrive at the canal, we can almost catch up, plus the time for us to drive the team, there are still about sixteen or seventeen days. ”

"That's all. Liu Chenyi crushed the letter paper in his hand, and pressed the other hand into his arms, the dagger that was tightly attached to his chest.

You don't want to be fine.

Her eyes were full of grievances and worries.

……

The team, which had been slow for so many days, began to change direction, and the speed was extremely fast.
