Chapter 246: Departure
Her eyes were full of determination, and at that time, she didn't know it.
Sometimes, the wind and rain she has to endure are precisely brought by the people she cares about the most.
The two confirmed each other's intentions, and the days after that were even more chic.
During the day, Ling Yi taught him archery and horseback riding, and in the evening, the two went to the back of the hill that night to drink and watch the stars.
Many people in the main city have seen the relationship between the two of them in their eyes, and many people have already told Ling Yi's father, saying that Ye Heqing is a Central Plains person, and it is really not good for Ling Yi to be so close to a Central Plains man.
Naturally, some of those words would fall on Ling Yi's ears, but she didn't care at all, her aunt died early, and her father spoiled her like a baby.
She believed that her father would not casually listen to what those people outside said, so she didn't think much about it anymore, and only played crazy with Ye Heqing all day long.
She would occasionally ask Ye Heqing when his father and mother would come to propose.
Ye Heqing always smiled and said, "It's soon, it's almost there." ”
This is fast, that is, more than half a year has passed.
The person entrusted by Ye Heqing traveled for a long time to get in touch with his family in the Central Plains.
His father and mother originally thought he was dead, but now when they heard the news of him, they only felt very surprised, and they didn't have time to think about anything else, so they rushed to Ling Yi's house non-stop.
On that day, the afterglow of the setting sun hung on the horizon, and the entire desert was covered with a golden veil, and Ling Yi returned from hunting on horseback with his companions, and saw the caravan parked at the door of his house.
Before she got closer, Ling Yi's heart felt a chuckle, she didn't care about anything else, and rushed straight into the house.
She was still carrying the rabbit she had just hit, and the rabbit was still dripping with blood, this appearance frightened Ye Heqing's mother, who was a dignified and elegant woman, and she could see the bloodline inheritance between her and Ye Heqing from her delicate eyebrows.
Ling Yi's father has always been spoiled by her, and when he saw her like this, not only did he not lose his temper, but beckoned to her, and introduced to Ye Heqing's parents: "This is my daughter Ling Yi, and her aunt is also from the Central Plains." ”
Ye Heqing's parents are also very good-looking, just looking at their appearance, they are different from their Xiliang people.
They were dressed in smooth satin clothes, and their gestures were full of bookish atmosphere.
When he speaks, he is also soft-spoken, and even when he drinks, he drinks one by one with a small wine glass, unlike her father, when he is happy, he doesn't even want a wine bowl, and he drinks with his head on his head while holding a wine jug.
Ling Yi greeted Ye Heqing's parents with joy, and the other party also replied politely.
She knew that it wouldn't be long before Ye Heqing's parents would bring up the matter of getting married.
She had been sitting obediently on the side and waiting that day, but until the end, she didn't hear his parents mention the marriage.
Ling Yi felt a little anxious, if they left tomorrow, when would Ye Heqing come back again, and when would the marriage be officially put on the table.
That night, she found Ye Heqing, didn't notice the helpless look in Ye Heqing's eyes, and just asked, "Why didn't your parents mention getting married today?" Is it because you didn't tell them? Do you know that they are going to take you back tomorrow? ”
Ye Heqing nodded: "I said it, of course I said it, and I don't know why my parents."

I didn't mention that incident today, Lingyi, don't worry, I'll tell my parents again, you are so good, they will definitely be very willing. ”
Ling Yi was a little relieved, after all, Ye Heqing herself said so, what else did she have to doubt.
She leaned her head into Ye Heqing's arms, and said softly: "I want to marry you according to your Central Plains etiquette, I want to wear a red wedding dress, wearing the phoenix crown that your brides often wear, I want to sit in a sedan chair, I haven't sat in a sedan chair yet." ”
Ye Heqing's eyes gradually became gentle, and he responded in a low voice: "Okay, I'll find eight people to carry you back, you love horseback riding, when you get to my house, I'll buy you a piece of land to use as a horse farm, so that you can ride a horse every day and gallop in it, okay?" ”
"Okay." Ling Yi lowered her head and smiled, that beautiful appearance was forever engraved in Ye Heqing's heart, the beauty of Xiliang women is always different from that of Central Plains women.
Their beauty, the thrilling beauty, the unforgettable beauty.
Ling Yi felt very happy, and also found an excellent excuse for Ye Heqing's parents, probably because it was not good to mention the matter of marriage on the first day, so she simply didn't mention it.
She knew that his parents must have wanted to wait until they were well prepared before mentioning it.
Ling Yi thought about it herself, the first meeting with Ye Heqing's mother yesterday was really not good, she was going to dress up beautifully today, and go to see Ye Heqing's parents again.
I heard that the Central Plains people like gentle and demure girls, so she took out the Central Plains skirt at the bottom of her box and wore it on her body.
Even so, this dress has been worn by her with a different taste.
She wanted them to know that she was indeed the only emerald in Xiliang, a rare treasure in this world.
However, when she got up early in the morning, packed up and dressed up perfectly, and rushed to Ye Heqing's door to look for him, she found that no matter how she shouted, there was no sound inside.
Ling Yi's heart tightened, and she hurriedly kicked open the door and went in to see where there was anything Ye Heqing inside, and all the things, including Ye Heqing himself, had disappeared.
She didn't bother to change her clothes, so she rushed outside with the corner of her skirt, led a horse regardless of it, and rode in the direction of the Central Plains.
Ye Heqing left, and left quietly like this.
Ling Yi didn't believe it, she wanted to know why, she wanted to catch up and ask, even if she was asked to wait, she was willing.
Ye Heqing left about late at night, and the speed was very fast, Ling Yi chased for a day and a night, but he didn't see any figure on this vast desert.
She was completely panicked, and then she remembered that she didn't know where Ye Heqing's family lived, and there were several people in her parents' house.
I don't even know if he's married...
She was so stupid and gave her heart away.
Later, Ling Yi fainted in the desert and was picked up by a passing Xiliang person and sent back.
This time, Ling Yi had a serious illness, and after the illness was cured, although the whole person was thin and out of shape, but fortunately, the bright look in his eyes was still there.
If this life can go on like this, she may forget the Central Plains man with a cold temperament.
A year later, when a Central Plains caravan passed by here, it inquired everywhere and asked where the most precious emerald in Xiliang was.
Just as Shang Lingyi was returning from riding a horse, she walked in front of that person with a smile and said, "I am Xiliangji."
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
That precious emerald, what are you looking for me? ”
The people of the Central Plains were not surprised, but took out an envelope from their package and said, "This letter was given to you by the Ye family in the capital." ”
After saying this, the Central Plains caravan left in a hurry.
Central Plains Ye Family...
When Ling Yi heard this surname, her heart still jumped suddenly.
How long has it been since she remembered it?
Don't think of that cold-tempered man anymore?
Ling Yi accepted the letter and returned to her room with a gloomy expression, she didn't know whether to read it or not, she felt very nervous, so nervous that her palms were full of fine sweat.
After making a long mental preparation, Ling Yi carefully opened the envelope, opened the letterhead, and read it word by word.
She didn't learn the Central Plains dialect well, but fortunately, Ye Heqing also used the simplest words to describe it.
Even so, I wrote two large pages with gusto.
Ling Yi read carefully word by word, and by the time she finished reading, it was already late at night.
Ye Heqing explained in the letter why he didn't say goodbye that day, he said that it was because his parents were worried that he would not go back, so they simply took him back in a daze.
He also said that in the year he went back, he was thinking about his life in Xiliang all the time, and he was thinking about it all the time... She.
When Ling Yi saw this, her face turned red again, and she felt that her heart seemed to be beating again.
It's like the day she first met Ye Heqing, that kind of throbbing, she still remembers it clearly.
Ye Heqing also said at the back of the letter that he would convince his parents as soon as possible, and then marry her home with ten miles of red makeup, so that she could be the happiest bride in the world.
Ling Yi felt that she was already very happy now, she couldn't write a few original characters, so she ran to the house of the person who wrote the letter overnight, woke them up from their deep sleep, and wrote three full pages before she shut up contentedly.
Taking advantage of the fact that the caravan in the Central Plains had not left, Ling Yi delivered this letter to them, hoping that they could help bring it to Ye Heqing.
Ling Yi felt very happy, Ye Heqing did have her in her heart, as long as she passed the hurdle of his parents.
She felt that as long as she could marry Ye Heqing, she could make any sacrifices.
The contact between the two gradually resumed in this back and forth of letters, there were many Central Plains caravans who came to Xiliang, and the Ye family was a famous family, so almost all the Central Plains caravans who came here knew each other.
They kept in touch quite frequently, basically once a month.
Every time, Ling Yi had to babble in the letter, telling Ye Heqing all the things he had encountered recently.
Ye Heqing also wrote down all his recent situation in the letter, and they kept in touch for a whole year.
Ling Yi is already eighteen years old, and the people who proposed marriage to these two have already broken through the threshold.
But Ling Yi was still unmoved, her father doted on her, and simply followed her, anyway, even if he couldn't get married in the end, he could afford to raise this daughter.
It's just that Ye Heqing's letter suddenly lost contact in March of the following year.
Ling Yi has sent back many letters, but she has not seen a single reply from Ye Heqing.
She waited from March until September before receiving a belated reply.
