The carriage walked slowly on the path to Jinyang. Ran Ying sat in the car, with the cold Ran Ying wrapped around her arms. Only by wrapping him tightly did Ran Ying feel that she was not nothing.

In just one afternoon, she had lost everything.

Ran Ying is dead, Yuwentai is gone, and even the secret of the jade seal she has been working so hard to protect is fake—in the end, she is still just a shadow.

The wind leaked in from outside the car, and it was freezing cold. She couldn't help but hug Ran Ying in her arms tighter. Compared with her, Ran Ying is the more miserable one.

She at least knew nothing about it, and she had a time of love with Yuwentai. Although they began with his disgraceful conspiracy, their love for each other was real.

Thinking of this, Ran Ying felt an overwhelming pain in her heart. She couldn't forgive him, she had lost the love of her forever!

Warm tears crept down her cheeks.

She reached into her bosom and touched the silk handkerchief, but she found a very small folded piece of paper.

Where did this come from?

She opened the piece of paper, and what caught her eyes was Ran Ying's words.

Maiji Mountain Qingfeng Cliff.

Ran Ying was shocked. When did A-Ying quietly put this piece of paper into her arms?

In the end, he told her the secret of the jade seal before he died.

He didn't betray her, nor did he betray the entire Ran clan.

"Ah Ying......" Tears slid down her cheeks again.

Gao Su drove his horse outside the car and said inside: "Ah Ying, we will be in Jinyang in half a day." ”

Coming from Luoyang, it snowed all the way. Gao Su thought to himself, it seems that this winter is particularly cold.

On this trip to Luoyang, Gao Su won a complete victory, the only accident was that he did not get the jade seal of the country, and Ran Ying, who only knew the clue, had fallen asleep forever with this secret.

For him, this is not the worst outcome, no one gets it, it is just to maintain the status quo. What made him most proud was to see the painful and frustrated expression on Yu Wentai's face that was unparalleled in the world.

In Gao Su's heart, this was never to seize the jade seal, or to compete for Ran Ying.

In Gao Su's heart, this was a war between him and Yuwentai.

Thinking of this, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

This is the Yuwen black otter that the royal father praises at home all day? He was just a little trick, and Yuwentai was defeated in front of him and had no power to fight back.

Yuwentai, it's already painful for you to lose Ran Ying, right? Don't worry, there is even greater pain waiting for you......

Suddenly, I heard a soft singing voice from the carriage beside me, faint and desolate.

It is a popular song of folding willow branches.

I am sad in my belly, and I am willing to be a horsewhip. Go in and out of Lang's arms, and sit on Lang's knees.

Ran Ying was obsessed with singing for a long time, and then suddenly she was singing a love song. She learned it in the trick hall by the Bahe River, but she never sang it to Yuwentai.

Gao Su listened silently, took out the jade flute from behind his waist and put it between his lips, and played the tune accompanied by Ran Ying's singing. The sound of the flute was melodious, shattering and drifting out of the sky, disappearing into the endless snow.

This night, Yuwentai had the same dream again.

He dreamed that he was marrying Ah Ying in Luoyang, and the lanterns of the entire Tonghuan Street were hung high, illuminating the wide and glorious streets; He dreamed that Ran Ying was wearing a white hub skirt and holding a gold folding fan; He dreamed of the sick, weak and pale Yu Ziqing, dreamed that Ran Ying abandoned him, and walked towards Yu Ziqing without hesitation.

He opened his eyes and looked at the dark beams of the roof.

Like a dream, I finally woke up.

Goose feathers and snow were still falling outside the window. The two braziers in the house were burning, and I still felt that it was cold all around.

He lay on the bed, listening with his eyes open to the sound of snow flakes falling outside, and everything that happened during the day seemed like a world away.

He thought of Ran Ying's thin and shaky shoulders, thought of her and didn't want to look at him again, thought of her and Gao Su's back leaving side by side without looking back, thought of his Ah Ying hated him to the core-

Suddenly, I only felt that the corners of my eyes were slightly wet.

He asked himself how openly he loved her. He respected her, loved her, spoiled her, worked hard for her, and gave her everything he could. But she ...... She hated him so much because of Yu Ziqing that she didn't even want to look at him more.

Did she really love him?

When Yu Wentai thought of this, he was not exempt from sadness, but also gave birth to a trace of resentment.

After staying in Luoyang for a few days, there was no trace of Gaosu. Dugu suggested that he go back to Chang'an first and then make plans.

In desperation, Yuwentai had to take a few iron guards all the way to Chang'an. Thinking of having Ah Ying by his side when he came, he chattered all the way, and all he was thinking about the midsummer wedding next year, but it was only a few days, but it was like a world away.

He lost his Ah Ying.

Yu Wentai couldn't help but wonder if there was such a thing as retribution in this world. Whether it is forced or not, it really can't last long.

Monalo was also in a heavy mood all the way. Ah Ran always had a knot in Ziqing's heart. She has now followed Gao Su back to Jinyang, I am afraid that in this life, she and Zhuguo will not meet again. I didn't expect that Zhu Guo would finally be empty, and I don't know how many years it will take to slow down.

It's just that for the rest of his life, can he still meet a woman who makes him so beloved? The older you get, the less likely you are to get emotionally involved – but maybe it's okay that he will still get some worthwhile benefits out of marriage.

After all, he will still be the Yuwentai who looks down on the world and stands at the top of the times.

All the guards knew that Yuwentai was in turmoil, his will was depressed, and he didn't dare to speak much, so he was silent all the way, and the group slowly walked towards Chang'an.

Soon arrived at Tongguan. When we arrived at the bottom of Tongguan City, it was dusk, and the city gate had just been closed. He Louqi stepped forward, reported Yuwentai's name, showed Yuwentai's Zhuguo General token, and asked the soldiers on the city tower to open the door.

After a while, a person who looked like a general went up to the city tower and shouted below: "Who dares to pretend to be Yuwen Zhuguo?!" ”

Yuwentai shouted: "Lone is Yuwentai, how can you fake?!" He looked up the tower in the dim light of the day, trying to see who dared to offend him.

The general was dressed in bright light armor, with thick eyebrows and round eyes, and a long beard on his face that was very chic.

"Li Bi?" He was dumbfounded. Without his order, when was Li Bi transferred to Tongguan?

Monalo sensed the danger sensitively, and even the horses under him kept spinning in place. He said: "Zhuguo, the situation is not good. ”

Could it be Yu Jin?

Yu Wentai understood. It must be that Li Bi also knows about this, and his beloved daughter has lost her life's happiness because of Yuwentai, so Li Bi will naturally not give up.

He came to Tongguan from Lingzhou, presumably because of Yu Jin's arrangement.

Li Bi supported his waist with one hand, stood high on the city tower and said loudly: "Yuwen Zhuguo was assassinated by Gao Huan's people in Luoyang the day before yesterday, and now he is in Zhuguo's mansion. Where did you come from, Xiao Xiao, who dared to pretend to be Zhuguo! ”

When Yu Wentai heard this, he only felt that a stream of qi and blood rushed straight to his head. Yu Jin and Li Bi took advantage of his absence, took control of Chang'an, concocted the news of his death, and wanted to put him to death!
