"Xi Yan? What's wrong with you? Are you frightened by the scar on the back of your brother-in-law's hand? When my sister heard your brother-in-law mention it for the first time, she felt uncomfortable! I can also imagine how painful the back of my hand must have hurt when I was just burned by the red-hot token! But this is all what happened to him when he was a child, and now that he has grown up, he has long forgotten it. It's just ugly to look at, but it doesn't hurt at all! You don't have to think too badly. Okay, let's not talk about these uncomfortable topics, let's go in for breakfast, shall we? lest you miss the time of your departure. ”

When Chu Yuyao saw that Ah Xiyan was a little distracted, she also comforted her empathetically.

took Xi Yan's hand and continued to walk towards the house.

"Oh, it would be nice if it didn't hurt. Hey, it's really hard for my brother-in-law. Well, let's go, let's eat and talk, shall we? ”

Ah Xiyan came back to her senses and replied.

Then they held hands and entered the house.

Aunt Chang and the palace maids had already set up a table to eat, and were waiting respectfully for them beside them.

Because the time of departure was approaching, and there were Aunt Chang and the palace maids waiting next to them, it was inconvenient to talk about some special topics, so they barely talked much, just lowered their heads and ate.

Occasionally chatting a few words, it is also about eating painlessly.

In just a quarter of an hour, they were both full.

In view of the fact that Chu Yuyao herself was going to leave the palace and return to the Horse Mansion, she took the initiative to ask to use her carriage to send Ah Xiyan to the gate of the palace, which was just a stop anyway.

In this regard, Ah Xiyan also felt very good, and she could chat for a while on the road, so she didn't refuse.

After that, after Aunt Chang helped put Ah Xiyan's baggage into the carriage, Ah Xiyan took Chu Yuyao's carriage and rushed to the palace gate.

When she was in the carriage, Chu Yuyao also said some interesting things about the relationship between her and the concubine, and Ah Xiyan couldn't stop laughing, and she also took the opportunity to learn more about the concubine, so that if she met the concubine in the future, she could also recognize the concubine as soon as possible.

For Ah Xiyan, she also wants to find the horse master Cangxuan as soon as possible.

First, the other party is her brother-in-law, and secondly, the other party is still a poisonous scorpion dead man, which is also helpful for her to find the Qilin Saint, so no matter what the reason, she will try her best to find Cang Xuanming, the brother-in-law, as soon as possible.

When Chu Yuyao's carriage left the palace gate and A Xiyan got out of the carriage, she saw that another carriage was already waiting there.

There were also twenty soldiers in civilian clothes riding on horses on both sides of the carriage, guarding the carriage, and the carriage driver was the dead scorpion soldier that Ah Xiyan had seen.

And Ah Xiyan's younger brother A Xichen also rode a horse and happened to be on the right side of the carriage, obviously trying to get as close as possible to Ah Xiyan in order to ensure his sister's safety.

Ah Xiyan also saw Prime Minister Dou Cheng also waiting next to his carriage, and his complexion was much better, obviously Ah Xiyan helped him recover quickly after helping him cure his stubborn illness for many years in the imperial study yesterday.

Only I didn't see the general and the eldest lady, obviously the general and the eldest lady accepted A Xiyan's suggestion and did not come to see her off in person.

It is also to avoid being seen by the lady concubine Niangniang that they have recognized each other.

"Sister Xi Yan, my sister can only send you here, so you should be more careful all the way and return triumphantly as soon as possible? When it's convenient, remember to fly the pigeon to report safety? ”

After A Xiyan got out of the carriage, Chu Yuyao opened the curtain and said goodbye.

"Okay, sister, you can go back quickly. Xi Yan will use the flying pigeon to keep in touch with you. If Xi Yan finds her brother-in-law, she will also notify you as soon as possible. You can rest assured. Is Xi Yan gone? See you soon! ”

Ah Xiyan also nodded and agreed.

After that, Chu Yuyao's carriage left first.

After seeing Chu Yuyao's carriage leave, Ah Xiyan also hurriedly walked towards Prime Minister Dou Cheng, after all, letting the important ministers of the court and the elderly elders wait for her in the cold wind, which also made Ah Xiyan unbearable.

"Prime Minister Dou, Xi Yan is late, I'm really sorry, I'm sorry to keep you waiting, right? It's a windy day, and your body hasn't fully recovered, so there's no need to rush to see Xi Yan off. Just send someone to say it. And if Xi Yan can return triumphantly, you don't have to come to greet you like you said in the imperial study yesterday. When the time comes, Xi Yan will go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to see you. ”

When Ah Xiyan walked quickly to Prime Minister Dou, she hurriedly supported him and said apologetically.

"Miss A is polite. The old man has just arrived, so it's out of the way. As for the old man's body, he has obviously felt much better than before, all thanks to Miss A's wonderful rejuvenation yesterday. Can the old man not come and thank him in person? Miss A, this trip is difficult and dangerous, you must be careful in everything. The old man has already flown pigeons to pass the book along the way to the major government offices and post stations, as long as Miss A comes to ask for help, he must do his best to help. Including the need for silver, I will try my best to meet Miss A. That's all the old man can do for Miss A. The rest is up to you. On the day of Miss A's triumphant return, the old man will definitely go out of the city to personally welcome Miss A back to the palace. Miss A is willing to risk her life for the sake of the people of the world, and she also has to go to the border. What the old man did was insignificant. It's just a little bit of a face. Miss Ah doesn't have to be polite. ”

Prime Minister Dou replied gratefully.

He solemnly admonished him again, and his words also revealed his respect from the heart.

"Then thank you Prime Minister Dou for all the trouble arranging. Xi Yan has nothing to repay, only to solve the border crisis as soon as possible and return triumphantly as soon as possible. Then Prime Minister Dou, you should hurry up and get in the car and go home, right? Your body still needs to recuperate, and it is not advisable to blow too much cold wind. Xi Yan said goodbye and hoped that Prime Minister Dou would take care of his body. ”

Ah Xiyan also swore an oath.

"Good! Good! All right! ”

After Dou Cheng said three good words in a row, he reluctantly turned around and got into his carriage and left.

Ah Xiyan took one last look at the General's Mansion opposite the main entrance of the palace, and silently said goodbye to the general and the eldest lady in her heart before turning around and walking towards her carriage.

It's just that what Ah Xiyan didn't know was that the moment she turned around, two people came out of the gate of the general's mansion and were looking at her from afar.

These two people are the general and the lady, and the general's leg injury is still very painful, so he still limps when he walks.

And the eldest lady leaned against the door and looked at Ah Xiyan's back, silently shedding tears, obviously extremely reluctant to leave the daughter she had just recognized.

The reason why they didn't want to be seen by Ah Xiyan was because they didn't want Ah Xiyan to be sad.

is the so-called pity for the hearts of parents in the world.

When Ah Xiyan walked to the carriage, the coachman also got off the carriage and respectfully stood beside the carriage, looking at Ah Xiyan, obviously in his mind Ah Xiyan was the most respectable person for him.

Ah Xiyan knew that it was inconvenient to talk to the scorpion dead man at this moment, so she only nodded slightly, and motioned with her eyes to wait patiently for the right opportunity to have a good chat with him.

And the scorpion dead man also nodded slightly, indicating that he understood what Ah Xiyan meant.

When Ah Xiyan first arrived next to the carriage, Ah Xichen jumped off the horse and helped Ah Xiyan into the carriage.

and took the opportunity to quietly stuff a silver bag into Ah Xiyan's hand, and Ah Xiyan also accepted it quietly before entering the carriage and sitting down.

He also signaled his younger brother to be more careful and pay attention to safety along the way.

Ah Xichen also assured with the same eyes.

After seeing A Xiyan enter the carriage and sit down, the scorpion dead soldier lowered the door curtain, went down with a whip, and officially set off.

After the carriage departed, Ah Xiyan took out the silver bag that Ah Xichen had stuffed for her before, and opened it with a curious expression.

Inside, I saw a folded piece of letter paper and a lilac bracelet all over it.

If you look closely, there is a faint trace of golden silk thread flashing inside the bracelet, which looks very mysterious and noble.

At first glance, it is a high-quality bracelet of extraordinary quality.

After Ah Xiyan casually put the bracelet on her wrist, she opened the letter and took a look.

first glanced at the bottom of the payment, and when Ah Xiyan confirmed that it was written to her by her mother, she was also quite excited, and hurriedly looked at it carefully.

The letter reads as follows:

Xi Yan:

My precious daughter, when you read this letter, you must have already set off, right? The reason why my mother wrote such a letter to you is because my mother has a secret that has never been mentioned to anyone. This includes your dad and brother as well.

In fact, my mother herself could not confirm the authenticity of this secret, and she never took it to heart.

Because this matter is related to the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, and my mother personally admits that she will never have anything to do with the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons in her life, and she is afraid of scaring your father and brother, she never told them.

But since I learned that you grew up in the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, I remembered this very strange thing again.

In addition, you have to cross the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons this time, which may be extremely dangerous, so I plan to tell you this secret, thinking that it may be helpful for you to cross the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons this time.

First, it is possible to help my mother confirm the authenticity of this matter, and secondly, it is not impossible to save your life at a critical moment.

In fact, this matter is very simple to say, that is, at midnight on the second day when your mother married into the general's mansion, your father was summoned to the palace because the emperor had an urgent matter, and he has not come back.

And the mother had no intention of sleeping, so she got up alone and read by candlelight.

Unexpectedly, a masked man sneaked into his mother's bedroom, and when his mother found out, he had already pointed his sword at his mother.

and signaled to the mother not to make a sound.

My mother thought that I was going to die, but who knew that the other party told my mother that he was just entrusted by someone to send me a token, that is, the bracelet you saw.

He also said that if he wanted to know his life experience, he would wear a bracelet and go to the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons in person.

It is also said that ordinary people will definitely die when they enter the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, but if they wear this bracelet, not only will they not die, but they will also receive the most honorable treatment.

After that, he left.

But my mother always thought that the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons was an ominous place, and no one could come out of it alive, so she thought that the other party recognized the wrong person, so she hid this bracelet.

Now that you are going to cross the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, my mother will hand it over to you.

Whether this bracelet is really useful or not, my mother wants you to wear it all the time, so that my mother can feel at ease.

Okay, that's all my mother said, take care of yourself, and come back safely as soon as possible.

Remember to destroy the letter after reading it.

Mother's own handwriting.

When Ah Xiyan read the letter, she was also surprised and carefully checked the bracelet on her wrist again......
