Chapter 13: The End of Betrayal
The carriage left the city gate and headed north.
The snow gradually stopped, and the thick snow flooded the original road, and the carriage moved slowly, and by the outskirts of the city it was already dark.
"Lord, princess, it's here."
Qingfeng lifted the sedan curtain, and Shu Wan got out of the carriage with Xiao Yan.
Shu Wan thought that the place where the biological mother of the king of the north of the dignified town was buried should be a feng shui treasure, but she never expected to be buried in such a barren place.
The grave in front of me was covered with a thick layer of snow, and the grave was surrounded by withered yellow grass.
Thinking about the long time ago, there was a layer of blue-gray moss on the tombstone, I am afraid that he has been in a coma for three years, and no one has worshiped this tombstone.
Xiao Yan stood in front of the tombstone, her fingers gently brushing the words on the tombstone, and the look in her eyes was lonely that Shu Wan had never seen.
For a moment, Shu Wan felt that the man in front of her was a little lonely and pitiful.
Qingfeng took the offerings out of the carriage and placed them one by one in front of the tomb.
"Lord Wang, it's getting late, let's worship early."
Traveling today, Xiao Yan didn't bring an entourage in order to hide people's eyes, only the three of them.
Shu Wan bowed her head silently, took a handful of incense candles and paper money she brought, walked silently to the tombstone, and lit the worship.
She suddenly remembered her father, Wen Tingyu promised her that as long as she obediently married Xiao Yan, he would bury her father and mother for her.
But she still doesn't know where her father and mother are buried.
Touching things sadly, Shu Wan couldn't help but shed tears.
Xiao Yan glanced at her sideways and frowned slightly.
"What are you crying about?"
He didn't cry, but the woman started crying first, I'm afraid she was playing some tricks to win his mercy!
Shu Wan wiped her tears and sobbed twice: "I just remembered my father and mother, and I was a little sad." ”
Xiao Yan squatted in front of the grave, threw a stack of paper money into the fire, and raised a layer of ashes, "Your father committed adultery and betrayed the country, the evidence is ironclad, presumably the body should be in a mass grave." ”
He said it lightly, but it hurt her more than the snow in this cold winter.
"My dad was wronged!" She frowned, baring her teeth at him for the first time like an angry little beast.
Xiao Yan suddenly felt interesting.
He thought that she would only cry, and that she would only try to make him pity, but it turned out that she would still be angry.
When he opened his mouth, his voice was as cold as others: "What's the use of just talking, everything must pay attention to evidence, this king heard that your father's case is still handled by Wen Tingyu himself." ”
The corners of his lips hooked: "I heard that you and Wen Tingyu have a marriage contract, this is really interesting." ”
The paper money in the brazier burned vigorously, and occasionally a few dead leaves fell into the fire, crackling.
He said it so plainly, gossip-like, but she couldn't help but tense up.
She couldn't guess him, and in a trance she wondered if he knew something.
"What does the prince want to say?" She asked tentatively, cold sweat breaking out on her back.
He had a kind of coercion all over his body, Shu Wan felt that all her careful thoughts had nowhere to hide in front of him, she was not his opponent at all!
Xiao Yan stood up and looked at the dense forest in the distance, and several birds fluttered their wings as if they were disturbed by something.
His brow furrowed slightly.
Shu Wan followed his gaze and didn't find anything unusual.
He suddenly spoke: "Do you know what the end of betraying this king is?" ”
Shu Wan sighed in her heart: "I don't understand what the prince said." ”
"Breeze!" His expression suddenly became serious, and the temperature around him seemed to drop in an instant.
