Things in the courtyard are the same as before, but there are less laughter and more layers of haze.

The warm autumn sun sprinkled on the gold-colored yellow flowers, brilliant and shining.

Shuying hadn't seen such a beautiful autumn day for a long time, but now it seemed that there was a piece of veil in front of him, dead and silent, gray.

Liluo had already been taken back to the second room, and it was hard to know what the situation was recently, thinking that Xie Yuyuan would not let her go. Xingxiang has been missing since that day, and even the medicine that has been used in the kitchen is gone.

An Yue kept shrinking in the corner of the room, not talking or laughing, only sobbing.

She suffered too much grievance that day, and it was no longer something that could be forgotten by healing the unbearable scars on her body.

As soon as she closed her eyes, she could see that ugly and terrible face, with her tongue sticking out and her teeth bared, licking and biting......

Baoxing, the second room steward, got the master's permission, so he stretched out his hand to ruin her life.

Even if he was an imposable, lean waste, it was still enough to crush An Yue's body.

With so many people watching, it was difficult for An Yue to clear herself. Now he is living in the world, just to accompany the girl through this most difficult time.

After walking, she was free, and they were all free.

Xie Shuying has not tasted the bitter taste of not being robbed of freedom. But the first time, she believed in justice and the law of heaven and king; Now, nothing is truly credible.

She was pinched to death by some people in this world, and there was no way forward.

At noon, the sun shone impartially on the lace of the bronze mirror placed by the window, and the dazzling light pierced the heart from the eyes.

The food delivered from outside was extremely tasteless, but looking at the spot of light that was slowly moving on the beams of the room, he still forged the bowl and swallowed it slowly. Whether it's hot or cold, it's the same numbness in the mouth.

Suddenly, her fingertips touched the bottom of the bowl, as if a piece of paper was stuck to the bottom.

With her fingernails, she gently peeled off the flattened rice that connected the paper to the thick tire of the porcelain bowl, folded it into small squares, and the strip of paper hidden at the bottom of the bowl fell silently into her palm.

As if afraid that it would fly away, Shuying held his breath and unfolded, only to see two small European characters with distinct bones: three watches.

There is no payment, and there is no explanation of which three watches are and where the three watches are.

But the handwriting was so familiar to her, she always felt that she had seen it somewhere.

She thought for a moment, and suddenly her eyes lit up, and she rushed to the bookshelf like crazy, turning the pages with trembling hands to confirm her guess.

Qi and blood surged into her mind in an instant, and the despair that rushed to her roots also scattered and fled, making her almost out of breath.

However, the tide receded, and Shuying immediately regained its calm. She restrained her rare ecstasy and persuaded herself not to expect this turn of events so that she would not be overly sad in the event of defeat.

The lock on the back door of the yard had been changed, and they didn't have the key in their hands to open it. But because of this, the back door is unguarded, and the traffic is the least noticeable.

Now in the beginning of winter, as soon as the time is over, the sky will soon be dark. On the third watch, the cold air enveloped the courtyards everywhere, and frost began to form on the grass and trees. The back door is hidden under the promenade, which is even more eerie, and occasionally the north wind whistles by, like a ghost call.

Shuying put on a green pea green jacket, covered with a thick sandalwood cloak, held a green gauze lantern, and slowly approached the back door. She was beating a drum in her heart, in case she would be wrong, he wouldn't be here at the back door......

Just as he was thinking about it, the wooden door "banged" twice.

She inhaled nervously, her throat irritated, and she coughed violently for a moment. I still couldn't restrain myself when I covered my mouth hard, and my cheeks burned like heat. If it's daytime, you can see that the roots of the ears are also red.

Got a cold?

When the visitor heard the movement in the courtyard, he put down his hand and knocked on the door. He didn't know how to speak for a while, he didn't make a sound, he just muttered in his heart.

Shuying moved closer, pressed her forehead against the door, and saw the light shining through the gap and the white collar. At this time, there was silence all around, only the sound of the wind, as if she had done something bad, and when she met him in such an unusual way, her heart immediately skipped a beat.

There was so much to say, but as if they had agreed, they fell into a long silence, completely forgetting what to do.

The shallow, even breath rises and falls, intertwined and lingers, and then melts into the deep night with the wind.

"I'm afraid you don't understand the meaning of those two words, it seems that you are really worried."

Listening through the wooden door, his voice buzzed through his ear drums, as cold as usual, but more calm.

"Is there a way?" She longed to be free for a long time, and she knew that he would not give up on her.

"Yes." He slipped a few pieces of paper through the crack in the door.

Shuying put the green gauze lamp on the steps, squatted down and read the words on the letter paper by the light, but his heart was hit hard, and he pulled the knocker hard to stand up.

"You guys are colluding?"

"What do you mean by 'collusion'? Under such planning, no one has suffered a loss, which is the best policy. ”

"Have you ever asked Xiuqin what she thinks? Is this the best way to protect me and give her up? ”

"She does." He gritted his teeth and had to tell her Xiuqin's choice.

She knew she couldn't change what they had agreed to, so she smiled wryly, "I can't figure it out." She is the daughter of the Hou Mansion, and she is still young, so she could have found a better family. ”

At least it shouldn't be Xie Shuying's last reliance as she once thought.

"The Shentu clan is a loyal martyr, worthy of her identity, but she is not the daughter of the Hou Mansion. After so many days, Xiuqin must have thought twice about it, and it was not a hasty decision. ”

Lu Qi paused, and then continued, "The current you are not the original you. I know very well that saying goodbye to the past is painful, but it is unavoidable. Since you will come to the Huaiyong Marquis Mansion, you should have figured out this matter. ”

Shuying leaned his body halfway against the door and stroked the corners of his eyes, his tentacles dry. It turned out that she was used to such a change and no longer grieved.

"In fact, Hou Ye did not fully grasp the evidence of the death of Jia Hu and the others, but the authority of the entire Jinling was in his hands, and it was so easy to give someone a crime out of thin air...... You don't have to complain about your brother's considerations, it's good for either side. ”

Shen Tuzhen explained the matter very clearly in the letter, the contest with the Hou Mansion, her safety, and their wedding date.

"He knew that I was in a dilemma, so he cut off the back road for me, and wanted me to learn from Xiang Yu and break the boat."

"You can ......"

She interrupted, "But Xiang Yu was defeated in the end. ”

"Your opponent is not Liu Bang, but yourself!"

It was as if someone had suddenly removed the veil that was covering her eyes, allowing her to see herself clearly in the mirror - her body was thin, her face was immature, and there was a passionate momentum in her eyes.

Xie Shuying in Lu Qi's eyes is very smart and strategic. But sometimes she is too stubborn, she will always get along with herself, and she is easy to be stupid, and this is exactly her cuteness, a missing part of his life.

"Everything was arranged for the best. Don't worry, I'll help you later. ”
