The carriage headed all the way to the southwest.

The carriage that Qibei had followed me out of had parted ways outside the inn.

Senior brother originally meant to let the car follow me all the way to the southwest.

Yun Chu and the two of them discussed for a while at the town inn, and they reached some kind of agreement that was unknown to me.

When he set off again, Tianfang took that car back by himself.

When leaving, the little guy who was driving the car first looked sluggish, and after a few words of advice, his spirit came.

I was a little surprised.

This little guy can't speak, I can only ask my senior brother.

He said that the sneak attack last night almost killed him, so people are still afraid.

At first glance, I heard that I didn't need to take my plague god to the southwest, and I was as happy as anything.

I was stunned for a moment, and I almost didn't laugh out loud.

If he could speak, I don't know how he would say it.

The carriage was not moving fast, and I leaned against the window and looked out the window at the large wasteland that passed by.

The wind and sand blew, and I quickly closed the window.

Raising his eyes to look at Yun Chu, he was very leisurely and half-lying there reading a book.

His carriage was much more elaborate than the one I rode in when I set out.

There were also stacks of miscellaneous books on the car, thinking that they were idle to pass the time.

I thought he had come all the way from Qibei to here in this carriage.

At one point, I said that I was really a master who would enjoy it.

Unexpectedly, when I stopped to rest by a small river in the wasteland, I asked the people under Yun Chu's men.

Only then did he know that he had hurried all the way to the town on horseback. There were few stops on the way.

If it is said to be rest, it will only take half an hour.

After listening to me, I only had one sentence, he didn't take his body seriously too much.

Back in the car, Yun Chu didn't know what I was talking to his subordinates. But when he saw me sitting there sullenly, he came up and comforted me.

"In a few days, you can go to the southwest, don't be impatient."

His voice was smiling, but I turned my head away from him.

"Tell me, what's wrong?" Yun Chu said step by step, "Isn't it boring in the car?" ”

"It's not." I replied sullenly, "When I get to the southwest, I'll still act on my own, and I don't want your help." ”

"It's only been a few days. Why is that strength coming up again? Yun Chu reached out and pinched my cheek.

I looked up at him. The transfiguration on his face is still there. But those eyes, with autumn mist-like eyes under the long eyelashes, will make people indulge in a few more glances.

I looked away and said, "You go to the southwest." Do you have something to do, or do you just follow me? “

Yun Chu said with a smile: "There are both, after the matter in the southwest is over, I plan to transfer to Xilan to see one of my old friends." “

Sealand? Old friend?

My eyes suddenly remembered the scene of meeting the empress on the street.

Instantly, my whole person was bad.

I looked at Yun Chu, and the look in his eyes made him uncomfortable.

I made up the picture of the disguised empress pounced on him, and for a moment my face was feverish, and my heart was pounding.

Yun Chu looked at me with a smile and said, "What are you thinking about?" ”

"Not really." I replied to him with a weak heart.

I was thinking about who he was talking about, and who else could be his old man besides the large group of people he knew who were scattered all over the world to do things for him?

Let's talk about the people Yun Chu knows. is either rich or expensive, and there is a rhetoric like Sealand first, it is really difficult not to think of the empress.

I hesitated, trying to ask him.

Yun Chu glanced at me and said, "It's not what you think, there are other people." “

"After the matter in the southwest is settled, I will naturally sue you."

I glanced at him unhappily and said, "Can you not use words like knots, I went to the southwest to see my teacher Xueying this time, and when you said that, it seemed that I was going to collect debts." “

"It seems to have a lot of grievances and hatreds, it sounds so weird, it's over." I whispered to myself.

Yun Chu looked at me for a while and said with a smile: "You yourself think that you are going to see the teacher, but you know that people also think the same way." “

"What you said seems to be that Snow Eagle is a villain who covets me, and he is just a teacher."

Naturally, I'll have to argue a few words for Snow Eagle.

"He used to teach me schoolwork in the palace, and he did his best."

Yun Chu glanced at me with a cold look in his eyes.

"People don't think about things that they shouldn't think about."

Yun Chu got up, his beautiful eyes were as dark as night, and there was a flash of light.

He sat down next to me, lowered his head and brushed his cheek against mine.

The warm breath swept across my face, and my body stiffened.

He said with a sly smile in his eyes: "So, just now you were thinking about something you shouldn't be thinking, look at it, your face is blushing like this." ”

For a moment, the air almost stopped flowing, and it was impossible to perceive the time.

"Not really." I said in a panic, leaning sideways and hurriedly getting out of the way, keeping a distance from him, "Blushing, it's the wind blowing." “

"Well, it's the wind blowing." Yun Chu saw that I looked like I was facing a great enemy, so he laughed, his eyebrows raised, and the corners of his mouth said with a bit of ridicule: "It's the first time I've said you, and my mouth is wrong." “

I dodged his gaze, looked sideways and saw that the charcoal brazier in the corner of the carriage seemed to be about to go out, and hurried over to it, and fiddled with it a few times, so that the fire could be rekindled.

The temperature rose, Yun Chu watched my movements in a good mood, and suddenly said: "Xiao Ling'er, when you arrive in the southwest, live in the house I arranged first." ”

After a pause in his hand, I didn't look back at him and said, "I want to go and meet Cui'er first." ”

Yun Chu behind him said with a little displeasure: "Send one away, and the other one is waiting." ”

I could already hear his words, and added in a low voice: "I met Cui'er, and confirmed that she is living well over there." I'll live in the house you arranged. ”

"As for what my senior brother said, I want Cui'er to take care of my diet and daily life in the southwest, Cui'er is now free, so I have to ask her what she means."

"It's the same thing I told you earlier. You said you'd help me, but if I think about it, I'd better check it myself. ”

I thought for a moment, plucked up my courage, turned my head to look at Yun Chu and said, "There are some things that I didn't have time to tell you when I was in Qibei. ”

When Yun Chu heard this, he raised his eyes and smiled without speaking, just looked at me fixedly, as if waiting for me to say the next words.

I pondered my sentence for a moment, half-bowed my head, and said, "Cui'er once asked me. Why do you want to come to the southwest alone? ”

"Actually. I'd love to say. I've always been a person who doesn't want to rely on others everywhere and look up to others. ”

"Here, perhaps. Under such circumstances, I am not qualified to say such a thing. ”

"But you, you're different from others, and I want to tell you about that."

"I hope that even if Xiaoling leaves Yunchu, he will be a person who can take charge of himself."

"No matter how much others give themselves, no matter how good they are, there is always a little unsteadiness in their hearts."

I looked at Yun Chu deeply and said, "Although you and I are very different, no matter what our background and experiences, we have all been in the palace before. You know that kind of life when you can't help yourself. ”

"When I met Liu Zhenzhen in Qibei, I once had a thought in my heart, that is, a delicate beauty like her can support the entire Liu family left by her father as the control behind the scenes."

"Actually, I also yearn for that kind of life, where I can make my own decisions, run my own business, and ......."

Yun Chu restrained his smile, he moved in the car, grabbed my left elbow and pulled it gently, and I was in his arms.

"I see what you mean, so would you like to do it another way?"

"When you get to the southwest, I will do my own thing, you are free, as you just imagined, I will not come to meddle in what you want to do, unless, you need to."

Yun Chu stroked my long hair and whispered in a low voice, "You just said something wrong. ”

"Where?" I raised my head and rubbed his chin, he rubbed my forehead and said, "The behind-the-scenes control of the Liu family is Liu Zhenzhen, and you have lifted her up a little." ”

I leaned on his arms, and when I heard the words, I moved and said, "If you don't say it, I also know a little bit, Chen Yuqing's martyrdom Jade Pavilion has always been secretly helping the Liu family in Qibei." ”

Yun Chu smiled: "It's not stupid. ”

"Do you want to say that in fact, you are still in control of the Liu family, and Liu Zhenzhen is the one who does things for you?" I continued.

"Xiao Ling'er, no matter which side of the staff is placed, I actually won't care about everything."

"Especially in a position like Chen Yuqing or Liu Zhenzhen, I won't be in control everywhere."

"Only on your side, it's a little different."

"You're saying I'm incompetent, aren't you?" I said with some anger, "It's often not enough to succeed, but it's more than enough to lose, right?" ”

"Or do you mean that I can't get out of the circle you set for me no matter how much I jump, do you mean this?"

Yun Chu lowered his head and clasped my right hand in his palm.

"I promise you, when you get to the southwest, you have freedom of movement, and I will not interfere."

"But you also have to promise me one thing."

I looked at him with wide eyes.

"Don't resist the protection I give you at any time."

"I'll take care of it and give you space, okay?"

I nodded, put my left hand around his neck, and rubbed my face against his jaw as he had done before.

The carriage shook suddenly, and I let go of him at once.

The little guy who was driving the car shouted loudly outside, "Childe, I just crossed a small hill." “

I took a few steps to the window and lifted the curtain to look out.

It turned out that he had unconsciously walked through the wasteland.

Now it's the biggest barrier between the southwest and the land of lakes.

Ahead is a large stretch of mountains and mountains.

I frowned at the narrow passage in the col, as if it were a dormant beast, and we were being swallowed by it little by little.

This mountain looks so steep.
