Chapter XVIII
There was a snowfall the other day.
The backyard path is not commonly used and has never been cleared. Chonghua was wearing a thick cloak, carrying a burden in his arms, and running deep and shallow.
Although I am not familiar with the road, although I don't know the direction. But Chonghua knows that he has to run as far as he can.
Get out of here first, and talk about the rest.
It won't take long for the procession to leave the gate and head to the Tongjiang Palace. If you don't take advantage of this time to coax everyone to go to the front to see the excitement. There was no chance to escape.
The air was a little cold, and the wind blew through the snowflakes on the trees.
Chonghua ran as hard as he could, and could only hear the sound of breathing in his chest and the thunderous heartbeat.
She knew how much impact her departure would bring, and she also knew that there was a possibility that Jinghua Shuiyue would be punished, and even the entire Ling Mansion would be destroyed.
But she couldn't care about that much.
She doesn't belong to this world, and she can't live here in peace. Even if it is a fight, Chonghua will try his best to try.
In this life, there are some things you always have to try, at least you won't regret it in the future.
The sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers in the palace can be heard from afar. Chonghua finally dared to look back at the festive direction after running for more than ten minutes.
He stood for a moment and gathered his shirt. Chonghua closed his eyes and felt the cold air in his chest. When I opened my eyes again, my expression had calmed down. Slowly moving his somewhat numb legs. Chonghua followed the path of the alley and walked forward.
The sedan chair that came out of Lingfu was carried by eight people. According to the specifications, it is already the highest level. Only the royal family can use sixteen lifts.
Ling Yuehua sat in the sedan chair with the apple in her hand tightly. Under the hijab on the head is a patch of bright red.
His chest was thumping like thunder.
It doesn't matter, you won't find it until you enter the cave room. The bride does not need to remove her head when she prays. Wait until the prince returns to thank the guests. Even if the hijab is lifted, it has become an established fact.
They have worshiped heaven and earth, and they are considered husband and wife. Moreover, the Tongjiang Royal Mansion will not be too vocal because of this kind of thing. After all, she is the serious concubine of the Ling Mansion.
When I thought of the delicate face of the prince of Tongjiang, it was like nephrite. Ling Yuehua's heart tightened.
Soon, she will be his wife. They will live happily ever after.
Enjoy the rain in summer and snow in winter, welcome the east wind in spring and fall leaves in autumn.
She would treat him gently for the rest of her life. Let him know that she loves him from the bottom of her heart. That way, he will see her good. That's not something that a maid can compare.
At that time, he will spoil her for the rest of his life. Thrush for her......
Suddenly, my heart was cold. Ling Yuehua bowed her head solemnly. There is a black feather arrow stuck in his chest, which leaves almost only its tail feathers.
Screams rang out outside. Shouts were being shouted from all sides: "Help, kill someone." ”
A pain gradually came from my chest. Ling Yuehua panicked, lifted the sedan curtain, and didn't wait for a sound. A black feather arrow hit her tender neck.
Her hands and feet gradually became cold, and Ling Yuehua's eyes widened. Slowly fell down.
The team to greet the relatives has been scattered. The long procession was full of people counting arrows in their bodies. The bright red clothes gradually turned black with blood.
On the white snow, it is particularly dazzling.
I don't know how long I have been gone, Chonghua looked at the sun on the horizon. I have been running from morning to now, and it is estimated that it is already noon.
There wasn't much silver on hand, and Chonghua wasn't very familiar with how silver was used in ancient times. Just to make sure that he didn't starve to death, he brought these out. On the outside, money cannot be exposed. Otherwise, before you survive, you will be killed.
Clenching his fists, Chonghua cautiously walked through the alley. At this time, you can't stay at the hotel. If the Tongjiang Mansion finds out that the bride has been dropped. Naturally, I will go to the Ling Mansion to inquire. Then they will find out about her escape. Will patrol the streets. The young woman who checked in that day, without a companion, was too eye-catching.
After thinking about it, Chonghua decided to take a risk.
The door-to-door door was carefully observed.
The door, in fact, can be seen in the living habits of a family.
Whether it is clean and tidy, whether it is worn out, whether it is attached to the delicate door god, whether it is tightly locked.
Chonghua looked along the wall one by one. Finally chose a dark blue gate. The gate is clean and looks like new. On top of that, there is a bamboo basket in front of this house with discarded rice paper in it.
In ancient times, not every house had a garbage can. And there is a bamboo basket at the door of this house, which can be seen for the convenience of scavengers.
Chonghua tugged back at his hair, thought about it and tucked the placket of his clothes. Nervously knocked on the door.
The process of waiting for the door to open is arduous. For a few seconds, Chonghua even wanted to run away. What if it's a hideous strong man who opens the door? What if it's a suspicious mother-in-law who opens the door? If they don't take her in, will she have to sleep on the streets tonight? What if they took her in and tried to sell her?
Chonghua had never been so cranky. In this place where survival experience is completely useless, Chonghua felt for the first time that he was so incompetent.
Crunch, the door opened.
Chonghua shook nervously and took a step back slightly.
A small head peeked out of the crack in the door. On the round little face are two buns. A pair of big moist eyes looked at Chonghua vigilantly like a deer.
Two people who were also nervous, looked at each other.
After a while, the little girl opened her mouth glutinously and asked, "Who are you?" ”
At that moment, Chonghua almost fell to his knees with weak legs. There seemed to be thousands of grievances in my heart. Tears swirled in my eyes.
But she knew she had to hold back and not cry. The child cannot be scared away.
"I, I'm lost." Chonghua tried to say in the gentlest tone.
The little girl blinked and slammed the door shut.
Chonghua's heart suddenly cooled to the bottom.
What to do? Knock again? But the courage to reach out can never be found again.
Do you really want to sleep on the streets?
Chonghua, who was kneeling on the ground, seemed to have all the strength of his body drained. He stared at his slender fingers in a daze. Knock again?
Crunch, the door opens again.
Chonghua looked up sharply. But he met a pair of warm eyes.
"Sir, that's her. She's lost. The little girl's soft and glutinous voice is like a cloud on the horizon.
Those warm eyes looked at Chonghua with a smile, and a clean and tidy hand stretched out towards Chonghua.
"Did it hurt anything?"
At that moment, Chonghua's tears finally couldn't be held back. It ran silently down her cheeks.
