"What you asked me to do, I've done." She pouted and asked him, "When can you let me out of the palace?" ”

"Out of the palace?" He looked innocent as if he didn't know.

"Hey! Don't think about it! You have asked me to do so many things for you, I only have this one request, you ......" The woman was angry, but when she saw the man smile gently, she said:

"Am I going to pay you more?"

The woman instantly calmed her anger and sneered: "I don't dare to forgive you." ”

The man took her hand, "You have to think about it, do you really want to go out?" ”

She said with a firm expression: "The palace is not my home, I want to go home!" ”

"But...... Is Qi Nangong that good? It's just a folk gang...... Okay, don't be angry, I'll just send you away. ”

The woman smiled.

Today she is officially an adult, and according to the agreement between the two of them, she can choose whether to go home today.

Qi Nangong was very lively from the inside to the outside, beaming with joy, and the people below stood in a neat queue to welcome her return.

"Second Miss."

With a smile between her eyebrows, she turned around and said to the people in the carriage, "I'm here, you can go back." ”

There was no movement in the carriage for a long time. Soon, the horse raised its hooves, and with a few "tuk, tuk" sounds, the horse turned around and pulled the carriage away.

Don't you want to say goodbye? Her expression was a little gloomy. Watching the back of the carriage grow smaller and smaller, until it shrunk into a black dot and disappeared around the corner, she was called back to her senses by a voice.

"Xue Xiao'er! You know to come back, too! ”

"Huh?" She blinked, her gaze grazing over the unrecognizable woman in front of her.

"What are you doing back? Don't know where you don't have in this home? ”

"You say no, no, no? This is my home, I'll come back if I want to, what's your business? ”

"You! You're so vulgar! Even if you go to the palace, it doesn't make you much better! ”

"But some people don't even have the opportunity to go to the palace." Xue Xiao'er retorted lukewarmly, and Xue Juling was not lightly angry.

Xue Xiao'er crossed over Xue Juling, "I'm going to see my father!" Third sister! She bit down on the last two words.

"Humph!" Xue Juling followed, "I'm going to see my father too!" ”

Middle-aged men have long been standing in the study waiting for someone. On the bamboo chair sat the calm and relaxed palace master - Xue Zhiming, that is, the father of the two of them.

"Daddy......" Xue Xiao'er still had tears in her eyes.

"I'm an adult today."

"Yes, Dad, I thought that according to the clan rules, my coming-of-age ceremony should be held in the clan, and I have long planned to come back for this coming-of-age day."

Xue Xiao'er's face was full of joy, and it subsided when she saw her father's unmoved look.

She whispered tentatively, "Father? ”

The man glanced away, didn't look at her, just said into the rows of bookshelves, "Today is a celebration in the family, not for your birthday." It's ......"

"Daddy?"

"You're going to Feihuang Kingdom to learn art."

"Daddy!"

Listening to Xue Zhiming's words, Xue Juling, who was standing behind Xue Xiao'er, was so shocked that her mouth grew, not to mention Xue Xiao'er's disbelief.

"Dad, did I come all the way back to hear you say this?"

"Even if you don't come back, I'm going to pick you up at the palace."

"Daddy!" Xue Xiao'er roared in disbelief, her father immediately waved his hand to summon his subordinates, quickly changed his face, and shouted angrily: "Don't hurry up and take the second miss down!" ”

A few reckless men were frightened.

Xue Juling was also stunned when she saw her sister being dragged down. She asked, "Dad, don't you love your second sister the most?" ”

Her father gave her a cold look, "I see that you also want to accompany her to be punished!" ”

"I didn't! Daddy—"

In Xue Juling's argument, Xue Juling was also dragged away behind Xue Xiao'er.

In the dark cell, Xue Xiao'er's expression was unknown, Xue Juling hadn't recovered yet, she couldn't help but ask Xue Xiao'er: "Why didn't you say a word?" Wasn't it quite stubborn before? ”

Xue Xiao'er ignored her.

Xue Juling said resentfully: "Why do I have to talk too much, why did my father arrest me too......"

Xue Xiao'er stood up suddenly.

"What are you doing! Scared the hell out of me! Like a ghost! ”

Xue Xiao'er faced the small window above.

I saw a dark cell, and a little light came in through those few cracks.

Xue Juling fell into the well and said: "It's also my father's favorite daughter!" I don't think you're much better than my cousin! ”

"Xue Juling, have you said enough?"

"Xue Xiao'er!" Xue Juling rushed up like a cannon into the sky, pointing at Xue Xiao'er and kicking her nose in the face, "I warn you, I came in because of you!" ”

Xue Xiao'er suddenly laughed, "Didn't you ask for it?" ”

"You!"

"You don't talk too much with Daddy, Daddy won't anger you."

Speaking of "Daddy", Xue Juling withered like a weed in autumn.

The two girls were just like that in the cold and cold dungeon.

"Second ......" Xue Juling hesitated for a moment, and said a little timidly, "I...... Second sister ......"

"If you have something to say, say it."

"I'm cold."

Xue Xiao'er was silent for a while, took the initiative to walk over, and slowly hugged Xue Juling, "Don't be afraid, Daddy won't harm us." ”

"Hmm."

From time to time, rats, cockroaches, geckos, and spiders crawled through the cell, sometimes skimming the skin of the two girls, who were timid and afraid, but they were able to get through.

Outside the window, the night was thick, and the crow's cries were more distinct.

Xue Juling had already fallen asleep in Xue Xiao'er's arms, and Xue Xiao'er was still open.

In the pitch-black cell, Xue Xiao'er was always vigilant.

Suddenly, the shadow of the tree by the window was suppressed, and the cell became even darker.

There are people outside the window.

Xue Xiao'er held her breath, held her breath, and listened.

She cautiously turned her head and looked out the window......

A man with a pestle there, looking at it, he was looking at the scene inside.

Thankfully, the cell was not lit.

The people outside moved very lightly, and they probably thought they were asleep.

After a while, Xue Xiao'er heard a slight movement, and then the figure outside disappeared.

"It's inside."

Xue Xiao'er suddenly raised her head! Father?

"Are you sure it's her?" It's a man's voice.

"Sure yes!" Xue Zhiming's voice was extremely affirmative, with a bit of subtle respect in his tone.

Xue Xiao'er squinted, who was her father talking to...... What does Dad want to do?

"Have you figured it out? After all, I have been raising it for more than ten years......"

"Of course I thought about it! Isn't it just to prepare for this incident after raising her all these years......"

"All right, I know your faithfulness."

After that, the conversation between the two faded away, and it should have been that they had walked away. Xue Xiao'er couldn't hear the sound outside. At this moment, her heart was cold.

What do you mean by dad? Listening to this tone, does Dad want to sell her? So what about Xue Juling?

The next day, several jailers came and opened the door. In fact, these people are also the family members of Qi Nangong. They knew two young ladies, and they didn't dare to be disrespectful at the moment.

Xue Xiao'er's eyes turned, and she raised her eyes slightly and asked, "Who asked you to pick me up?" ”

The family smiled and said flatteringly: "Second Miss, the palace master and you, father and daughter, where is the overnight enmity?" Didn't the old man let the little one pick up the two young ladies back? ”

Xue Juling suddenly cried aggrievedly, and howled in her mouth: "Dad, Dad, Dad didn't forget me, Dad, Dad finally let me out, I'm scared, Woo Woo, sister, second sister, I won't fight with you anymore Woo Woo Woo......"

When Xue Juling spoke, it was like a stone in her mouth, making it difficult for people to hear what she said. But this did not affect Xue Xiao'er to guess what Xue Juling was talking about.

Compared with Xue Juling's excitement, Xue Xiao'er's face was cold and terrifying, and that kind of indifference made several family members a little scared when they saw it.

"Second Miss?" A family member called tentatively.

"The third sister was frightened, and she didn't let the third sister's maid in to help the third sister!" Xue Xiao'er scolded in a low voice.

A few family members are busy with it.

Xue Xiao'er was directly "sent" to the carriage outside the mansion by a group of thugs raised by Qi Nangong.

She didn't even see her father's face.

At the fork in the garden, Xue Juling tightly tugged on Xue Xiao'er's cuffs and refused to let go.

"Second sister, where are you going? How long to go? Didn't you just come back yesterday? Xue Juling's eyes were full of tears.

Xue Xiao'er smiled lightly, "...... should you ask about this" She hesitated, "Don't ask more, don't get into trouble." ”

Xue Xiao'er broke Xue Juling's hand, she finally held Xue Juling's hand and rubbed it in the palm of her hand, Xue Juling's hand is still cold, Xue Xiao'er knows that this sister has been cold since she was a child.

Xue Xiao'er smiled softly at Xue Juling, and said softly in her eyes: "I'm going out again!" You have to be obedient at home! ”

Xue Xiao'er smiled brightly.

Seeing this, Xue Juling slowly let go of Xue Xiao'er's hand, "Okay, sister, I won't stop you this time, you have to go early and return early." I'll wait for you. ”

Xue Xiao'er smiled and nodded.

Yao Yao remembers that last time, the emperor issued a decree and summoned her to the palace to be a medicine boy of the national teacher.

That time, Xue Xiao'er cried to death, and Xue Juling rolled on the ground, making trouble at home, and arguing to go.

But where is the palace a good place to go? Especially for small sects like them, if they don't do well, they will be wiped out.

That time, Xue Xiao'er opened the curtain in the carriage and was reluctant to close it, this time, no one even told her the way, but she resolutely stepped into the carriage, and the curtain was not opened once.

There was a hint of appreciation in the coachman's eyes.

This trip was very simple, I didn't bring anything, just a carriage, a coachman, and a Xue Xiaoer.

The carriage staggered for a long time, and there was no sign of stopping, Xue Xiao'er asked the coachman, "Where are you going?" ”

The hoarse voice of the coachman said, "There is still half a day to come." ”

Xue Xiao'er didn't want to ask more, so she simply endured it.

It really took only half a day, and at the beginning of dusk, the carriage finally stopped.

Xue Xiao'er got out of the car, walked away, and then ......
