After the three men left, Xiaobai walked to An Ran's side, and those bright eyes looked at her, and those eyes made An Ran's heart feel warm.

She looked at Xiaobai, the originally snow-white hair became dirty, it seemed that it had chased An Ran all the way, and it had never taken a bath.

An Ran touched Xiaobai's head, squatted down, and said, "Why did you come with you?"

Xiaobai rubbed her face, as if answering her wordlessly.

Seeing Xiaobai's appearance, the corners of An Ran's mouth raised slightly, since Xiaobai insisted on following her, then she would accompany Xiaobai along the way. With it by her side, she does feel a lot more at ease.

"In that case, let's go find Ye Lang together. An Ran said with a smile.

Then, as one man and one leopard walked on the snow-white ground, the horse fell off a cliff, and now she had to walk to the nearest town and buy a new horse for the road.

Finally, when he was about to arrive in town, An Ran thought of a question, that is, Xiaobai could not go in. A ferocious animal like the snow leopard will definitely frighten people, and if she takes Xiaobai in, she may not know what will happen.

Then she could only put Xiaobai on the snowy mountain in the suburbs first, An Ran squatted down, and said to Xiaobai: "Xiaobai, you can't go into the town, you stay on the snowy mountain now, when I buy a horse, I will pick you up, and we will continue on the road." ”

Xiaobai seemed to understand what she meant, glanced at her, and then went towards the snowy mountain by himself.

An Ran looked at Xiaobai's agile figure and showed a light smile.

Fortunately, Xiaobai is by her side, if Xiaobai doesn't follow, I'm afraid she won't have the capital of Northern Chu, and she will either die or be *.

Sighing lightly, An Ran quickened his pace and walked towards the town.

After buying all the necessary supplies and horses, An Ran found an inn to eat something, then bought some food for Xiaobai, and walked to the suburbs.

Coming to the foot of the snow-capped mountain in the suburbs, An Ran looked at the snow-capped mountain, and couldn't help but gasp, oh my God, she still had to climb up to find Xiaobai, which really stumped her.

With a heavy breath, An Ran cheered himself in his heart, and when he was about to go up the mountain, he suddenly saw a snow-white figure, which was actually Xiaobai! It was coming down from the snow, and the vigorous movements soon came to An Ran's side.

An Ran looked at Xiaobai and showed a smile, Xu Xiaobai smelled her breath, so he came down by himself.

Xiaobai's body is no longer dirty, and the snow-white hair makes people want to touch it. It seems that Xiaobai didn't know where to find the snow lake and took a bath.

Looking at Xiaobai's energetic appearance, An Ran smiled, and then took out the food he bought for it to eat, looking at Xiaobai's eating, An Ran touched its head dotingly.

Turning her eyes to look at the blue sky, An Ran's heart was full of emotion, in the past, she and Ye Lang often sat and chatted in the corridor outside Qifeng Tower, Xiaobai was lying at her feet, and that scene seemed to have passed for a long time.

I miss Nan Ling Ye very much in my heart, I don't know what is going on with him now? At this time, An Ran couldn't wait to feel the capital of Northern Chu immediately.

After Xiaobai was full of food and drink, An Ran began to take Xiaobai on the road and rushed to the capital.

That night, An Ran and Xiaobai didn't have time to enter the city, so they could only settle in the ruined temple outside the city. led the horse inside, a cold wind hit, An Ran couldn't help but shiver, tied the horse to the pillar, An Ran and Xiaobai went inside.

This ruined temple seems to have been abandoned for a long time, it is dilapidated everywhere, and the wind is blowing from all sides, An Ran looked around, sat down in a corner, and Xiaobai lay at her feet, silently accompanying her.

It was very cold, it was snowing heavily, and the cold wind kept blowing in, An Ran stood up and said, "Xiaobai, you wait here, I'll go outside to pick up some branches and make a fire." ”

After speaking, An Ran wanted to go outside. Unexpectedly, Xiaobai also followed, it first followed An Ran's side, and then after knowing what An Ran was doing, it also came to help. Take all the branches to where they were sitting.

With Xiaobai's help, he quickly picked up the branches, and An Ran began to light a fire.

Although the action was very unfamiliar, it still lit the fire. I felt a lot warmer in an instant.

Looking at the snowflakes that kept falling outside, An Ran whispered to Xiaobai: "Xiaobai, Yelang doesn't know at the moment, okay?

As if he understood An Ran's words, Xiaobai actually glanced to the side, as if he looked disgusted.

Seeing Xiaobai's appearance, An Ran couldn't help but hide her lips and smile, how could she forget, Xiaobai and Ye Lang were like committing eight characters, Ye Lang disliked Xiao Bai, and Xiao Bai also ignored Nan Ling Ye.

Or maybe it's because Nan Lingye always sees it, so he calls it a fat cat.

"I miss him so much, I don't know if he's okay now? Is everything settled? If it's fast, we will be able to get to the capital of Northern Chu tomorrow night, and we will be able to see Ye Lang soon." An Ran muttered softly. Thinking of this, a deep smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Sleepiness hit, An Ran yawned, leaned against the wall, and felt drowsy.

Suddenly, Xiaobai scratched her hand with her front paws, An Ran looked at it and asked puzzledly, "Xiaobai, what's wrong?"

I saw Xiaobai stand up, her huge body shook in front of her, and then lay down next to her, An Ran looked at it for a while, and understood what it meant, Xiaobai saw that she was uncomfortable leaning against the wall, and wanted her to lie on its body and sleep against it.

Gently pursing the corners of his mouth, An Ran touched Xiaobai and muttered, "Xiaobai, thank you." ”

Leaning on Xiaobai's furry body, warm and comfortable, An Ran soon fell asleep.

When they woke up the next day, An Ran and Xiaobai began to embark on the road to the capital of Northern Chu again.

Finally, at night, An Ran took Xiaobai and finally arrived at the outskirts of the capital of Northern Chu, the city gate was closed, and she had no way to enter the city again, so she had to find a place to stay in the suburbs for one night, and make plans tomorrow.

Seeing that the lights of a nearby house were still on, An Ran thought about going to that person's house for a night, squatted down, and said to Xiaobai: "Xiaobai, I can't take you in, you have to go to the mountains to live by yourself." When I find Yelang, I'll pick you up with him. ”

This time, Xiaobai didn't leave, howled twice, looked in the direction of the house, and then looked at An Ran.

An Ran looked at it and said uncertainly, "You want to see that I enter safely before leaving, right?"

Xiaobai didn't make a sound, and touched An Ran's feet with his furry head, as if expressing its meaning.

After understanding what Xiaobai meant, An Ran smiled, and then walked towards the house, and when he walked to the door of the house, Xiaobai hid in one place so as not to scare people.

An old woman who opened the door was very kind, and after An Ran explained her intention to the old man, the old man took her in very kindly.

After entering the door, An Ran glanced at Xiaobai in the dark to reassure him, and followed the old man in.

The old woman only lived alone with his wife, and they had no children under their knees, but the two old men loved each other, relied on each other for companionship, and lived an ordinary and comfortable life.

The two old men were very hospitable, cooking a bowl of noodles for An Ran, and after she finished eating, the old woman chatted with her in the room.

"Is the girl going to visit relatives in the capital?" asked the old woman. Looking at this girl's appearance, her temperament is extraordinary, and she knows at a glance that she is not an ordinary person.

"Yes, one of my elder brothers is on an errand in the Northern Chu Palace, but now there is no news, our family is very worried, there is no way, I have to come out to look for it and inquire about my brother's news. An Ran said,

She didn't dare to say it too bluntly, so she could only roughly say what it meant. After all, Nan Lingye's identity is special, and it is really not appropriate to say it to outsiders.

When the old woman heard that she was on an errand in the palace, she couldn't help but sigh, looking at An Ran's eyes with some helplessness and sympathy. An Ran saw the strange look on the old woman's face, she had a bad premonition in her heart, and said, "The old woman might as well say it directly, don't mind." ”

looked at An Ran, was silent for a while, and then the old woman said, "Girl, if I say something bad, I'm afraid your brother is more than lucky." ”

Hearing this, An Ran couldn't help but gasp, looking at the old woman in surprise, with a puzzled face, she didn't understand why the old woman would say this, but she knew that something must have happened in Bei Chu, and this news was probably blocked and could not be transmitted back to Dasheng, so she couldn't receive any news about Nan Lingye.

"On the same day, the civil strife in Northern Chu, just when the chaotic party wanted to usurp the throne, His Royal Highness the Prince Liewang suddenly appeared, and with the wolf cavalry and others, and His Royal Highness King Ning should cooperate with the outside to kill the chaotic party, at that time, in the Northern Chu Palace, I heard that it was a chaos, and many people died, and then the king ordered that the news should be completely blocked, and the news could not be spread out, otherwise, someone would definitely take advantage of the civil strife in Northern Chu to attack. Until today, the palace of Northern Chu is considered to be stable, King Lie is in power, according to the edict of the first emperor, King Lie is the new emperor of Northern Chu, and the enthronement ceremony will be held on a certain day, and today's holy decree notice has been posted. The old woman said slowly.

Hearing the old woman's words, An Ran's heart was shocked and confused. She couldn't imagine that in such a short period of time, things had changed so much, and Nan Lingye was about to ascend the throne as emperor?

In this case, since he returned to Beichu safely, since he exterminated the rebellious party, why didn't he send someone to send her the news, he should know how worried she would be about him.

She could understand how busy he was, and how much he needed to deal with, but was it so hard to even send a letter or send someone to deliver a word?

Moreover, on the same day, she was imprisoned by Emperor Dasheng, expelled from the family tree, and ordered to be killed, not only Dasheng, but also Northern Chu, should also be able to receive the news, but why, Nan Lingye is still indifferent?

Until today, he has issued a holy decree and is about to ascend the throne as emperor, which means that everything has been taken care of, and there is still no news from him to bring back to her.

Too many questions swirled in An Ran's heart, and at this moment, she really wanted to see Nan Lingye.
