A few more days passed in the blink of an eye.

In Jianyun Villa, Xia Qinghuai and Zhuo Yan were anxiously waiting for news.

Suddenly, Manager Zhu hurriedly broke into the main hall.

"Manager Zhu, why are you in such a hurry? Did you hear the news of my sister? ”

"Young Master, according to our people's reports, we haven't found any news about Miss Xia."

"How can this be, could it be that something really happened to my junior sister?"

Suddenly, a small servant came to the main hall.

"Young Master Qiyu, there is someone outside the door who asked me to give this letter to Mr. Xia." As he spoke, he handed the letter to Xia Qinghuai.

After Xia Qinghuai opened the letter and read it, his face changed suddenly, and he shook the envelope and fell out of it.

Zhuo Yan saw that this sword spike was very familiar, as if it was Xia Jinghan's, but he didn't dare to be sure.

"Master, is this sword spike my sister's? What the hell is going on? ”

"According to the people on the letter, your junior sister was held hostage by the people of Manluo Kingdom, and asked me to exchange the key to the imperial tomb. But since the other party wants the key, then Han'er should be safe now. ”

"What Imperial Tomb Key? Master, since we already know that our junior sister is now in Manluo Kingdom, without further ado, let's hurry up! Zhuo Yan was confused by what Xia Qinghuai said, but as soon as he heard that Xia Jinghan was now in Manluo Kingdom, he couldn't wait to grow wings and fly over immediately.

Compared with Zhuo Yan, Xia Qinghuai is much calmer.

"We'll leave for Manro immediately, Yan'er, do you need to talk to your father?"

"It's too late! Steward Zhu, if my father asks, you will say that I will be a junior sister when I go to Manluo Country with my master. Presumably he won't blame! Master, let's go. ”

In an instant, the two of them disappeared.

It would take three days to reach from Zhuojun to Manluo Country at a normal speed, but now Xia Qinghuai and Zhuo Yan are traveling day and night, hurrying up, and they have shortened the three-day journey to one day.

The next morning they arrived in the country of Manro.

When they entered the territory of Manro, the two of them went straight to the palace.

In the palace, Gu Junmiao has sent additional troops in the past few days, and the heavy troops are guarding the side hall where Xia Jinghan is located, the purpose is to prevent Xia Qinghuai and them from breaking in.

After Xia Qinghuai and the two of them entered the palace, they first secretly investigated. It was found that the palace was heavily guarded, especially in the side hall.

"Master, the guard is the strictest, it seems that the senior sister should be imprisoned in this side hall. Should we take action? ”

"Don't act rashly yet, this palace is heavily guarded, and you and I can't just deal with it. It's better to go back first, and then think about it in the long run. Walk! ”

Just when Xia Qinghuai and the others wanted to retreat, Zhuo Yan accidentally made a noise, alarming the guards below.

"Who's up there?" The guard, who was the first to hear the movement, stared at the top of the side hall.

However, there was not a single figure in sight for a long time.

Suddenly, Gu Junmiao came over. He saw the cautious looks of the guards, and he had already guessed a few points in his heart, he didn't expect them to come so quickly.

"What's wrong, what's going on?"

"Your Majesty, there seems to be someone in the side hall."

"Oh? Are you sure? ”

"This, my subordinates are not quite sure."

"Friends from afar, since you're here, come down!" Gu Junmiao said loudly into the sky.

"Master, it's all my fault! If it weren't for me, they wouldn't have found out. Zhuo Yan looked annoyed.

"Silly boy, how can I blame you? Now that they've spotted us, there's nothing left for us to hide. They shouldn't know about you, so if you go down alone, you'll wait for an opportunity to escape when the time comes. ”

After speaking, Xia Qinghuai flew down from above, leaving Zhuo Yan with no chance to refuse.

Zhuo Yan watched Xia Qinghuai disappear from his side, but he couldn't do anything. Master, junior sister, don't worry, I, Zhuo Yan, will save you even if I fight for my life.

When Xia Qinghuai completely appeared in front of Gu Junmiao, it was as he expected.

"Mr. Xia, since you are a guest when you come from afar, you have to stay a little longer this time."

Xia Qinghuai saw Gu Junmiao for the first time, the king of the Manluo Kingdom, and couldn't believe that the young man in front of him had such courage and bearing.

"O king, do not come among you any of these vain things. What about my daughter? Where she is, I want to see her. ”

"Don't worry, your daughter is unharmed, and she is in this side hall at the moment. Come on, bring Miss Xia out and give him a good look. ”

"No!"

I saw two guards enter the side hall and come out of the side hall with a woman, and her face was not real from a distance.

Xia Qinghuai only needed a glance to determine that it was Xia Jinghan.

"Hello! Whoa! ”

Xia Jinghan seemed to hear Xia Qinghuai's voice in a trance, and she also hallucinated for herself. As a result, when I looked up, I saw Xia Qinghuai really standing not far away.

"Daddy! Why are you here, Gu Junmiao, what do you want to do? ”

"Jinghan, you don't have to worry, I don't want to hurt any of you, and when I get what I want, I will naturally let you go."

"I hope what you say is true, otherwise I will never forgive you in my life!"

"Mr. Xia, you see, where is the key?"

Xia Qinghuai took out a key from his arms and held it high.

"This is the key you want, let Jinghan go, and I'll give it to you."

"I said, you really think I'm a fool! How do I know if this key is real or not, you take me to Otter Mountain, and after opening the Imperial Tomb, I will naturally let you go. ”

Gu Junmiao stepped forward and snatched the key from Xia Qinghuai's hand.

"Mr. Xia, please!"

Gu Junmiao asked Xia Qinghuai to lead the way, and rushed all the way to Otter Mountain. After Zhuo Yan saw them leaving, he also quietly followed.

Along the way, Gu Junmiao and Xia Jinghan rode in the same carriage, and Xia Qinghuai was guarded by a special person. Gu Junmiao was afraid that they would play tricks, so he fed them cartilage powder in advance.

Inside the carriage, Xia Jinghan's current mood is mixed. She finally knew what Gu Junmiao's purpose was now, that is, for the treasure of the imperial tomb. She blamed herself for believing her in the first place.

Gu Junmiao and his party did not arrive at Otter Mountain until the fifth day. After arriving, Gu Junmiao only led a small group of people to go up the mountain immediately, and asked the large army to guard at the foot of the mountain to prevent anyone from breaking in.

Situ Ye's mausoleum was halfway up the mountain, and they arrived quickly. His mausoleum is not much different from other ordinary mausoleums in appearance.

It turns out that this is Situ Ye's mausoleum! Gu Junmiao was very excited when she thought of the treasure in the mausoleum, took out the key from her arms, and saw that she was about to insert the keyhole, and at the last moment, Zhuo Yan appeared.

He dodged and kicked the key in Gu Junmiao's hand into the air, but when he got up to get it, he was stopped by Gu Junmiao, and the two were entangled together.

The surrounding guards were dumbfounded, and they didn't dare to rush up to help, for fear that they would accidentally hurt Gu Junmiao.

"Take advantage of now, Jinghan, go and help your senior brother! The key must not be allowed to fall into Gu Junmiao's hands. ”

"Dad, I'll go now!" As soon as the words fell, Xia Jinghan turned around and threw herself into the battle between the two.

It turned out that although Xia Jinghan had scattered cartilage in her body, Gu Junmiao gave her a lighter weight, and after a few days of recovery, she was already half better.

With Xia Jinghan's joining, Gu Junmiao gradually fell into disadvantage.

Suddenly, Jensen came from the bottom of the mountain in time, and when he saw that the king was in danger, he immediately joined the battle.

The situation between the two sides turned around in an instant. Xia Qinghuai saw that the situation was not good, and with all his strength, he grabbed the key while they were unprepared, and immediately threw it under the cliff, but he was slapped by Yan Sen. Immediately spat blood from his mouth, and fell to the ground motionless.

Everyone was stunned by the sight in front of them, including Jensen.

"Daddy!"

"Master!"

Xia Jinghan and Zhuo Yan immediately rushed to Xia Qinghuai's side and picked him up.

"Dad, you'll be fine! You'll be fine, you wait, Han'er will go find a doctor for you right away. Senior brother, you help me take good care of my father! Xia Jinghan wanted to leave, but Xia Qinghuai pulled her sleeves.

"Han'er, Dad's body knows by itself, it's useless, don't go to the doctor." When Xia Jinghan heard Xia Qinghuai say this, she couldn't hold back anymore, and her tears burst down.

"Dad, I don't want you to say that! You said that you want to watch Han'er get married and have children, you said, you can't talk and don't talk. ”

"Han'er, I'm afraid my father is going to break his promise this time. Silly boy, don't cry! Birth, old age, sickness and death are known to people, and people always have to go through such a thing when they live in the world. ”

"Yan'er! From now on, I will hand over Han'er to you, you have to treat her well, so that I can go over there to accompany your sister with peace of mind! She waited for me for so long, and she should be in a hurry. ”

"Master, don't worry, I will take good care of my junior sister!" Zhuo Yan assured Xia Qinghuai.

"Then I'll be relieved, rest assured......" Suddenly, Xia Qinghuai grabbed Xia Jinghan's sleeve and slowly drooped down.

"Daddy!" Xia Jinghan was grief-stricken.

"Senior sister!" Zhuo Yan saw Xia Jinghan's sad appearance, and hugged her tightly in his arms,

comforted her silently.

Gu Junmiao never thought that things would develop to this point, he knew that he would not be able to get Xia Jinghan's forgiveness in his life. Although Xia Qinghuai was not killed by him, he died because of him, and he could not escape the blame.

He wanted to explain something, but he had nothing to say, and left silently with his men.

Zhuo Yan accompanied Xia Jinghan to sit quietly all night, until the next day, the blue and white dawn and the faint morning mist blended together.

"Senior brother, let's go home."

"Okay, let's go home!"

Zhuo Yan and Xia Jinghan returned to Cuiyu Mountain with Xia Qinghuai's corpse and buried him and Situ Luowu together, which was considered a wish of his.

In front of their graves, Zhuo Yan secretly assured their two elders that he would only have Xia Jinghan as a wife in this life, and he would use his life to love her well, depend on each other in life and death, and never abandon her.

Later, when Xia Jinghan was sorting out Xia Qinghuai's clothes, she stumbled upon a letter.

"Senior brother, come and see, there is a letter here."

"My son, it seems that this letter should have been written to you by the master or the master's wife. Open it up and take a look! ”

Xia Jinghan opened the letter and found that it was written by Situ Luowu. The general content of the letter is: At that time, Situ Luowu knew that his life was short, so he specially wrote this letter. confessed that when Xia Jinghan was still young, she and Xia Qinghuai buried a jar of daughter red in the bamboo forest, just under the tallest bamboo. Originally, she wanted to wait until Xia Jinghan got married to take it out, but she knew that she wouldn't be able to see that day.

"Mother......" Xia Jinghan's call contains how much touch and bitterness.

"Jinghan, let's go to the bamboo forest and have a look!"

"Good!"

Xia Jinghan and Zhuo Yan found the tallest bamboo according to what was said in the letter, and sure enough, they dug up a jar of daughter red underneath.

Daughter Hong is still sealed intact, but it has long been a matter of fact.

"Senior sister, it can be seen that the master and the sister really love you very much. Although the master is no longer here, you still have me, and I will always be with you. ”

"Senior brother, I will only have you in the future."

The setting sun shone its last rays on the earth, on the rooftops, on the treetops, on a pair of people who were leaning on each other...... His light is everywhere and brings peace and joy to people.

In the country of Manro, a lonely figure in the palace was stretched for a long time......

……

Cheng Ruoke suddenly woke up from his dream and suddenly found that Zhan Leyan was by his side.

Zhan Leyan saw that Cheng Ruoke woke up and asked, "What's the matter, are you dreaming?" ”

"I felt like I had become a different person. With another life. ”

"Then in your other life, do you have me?"

Watching Zhan Leyan's face gradually get closer to him, Cheng Ruoke suddenly realized who that person looked like......
