The number of people who returned to Beijing was huge, and the team was huge. In order to prevent anyone from escaping, the personnel involved were loaded into prison vans. On both sides are the officers and soldiers appointed by the Liangzhou County Guard, who are guarding day and night.

Everyone who brought back to the capital was very important, and they were the key to proving Zuo Linghong's evil. Although the daily expenses along the way are a lot of money, they have to provide for these people no matter what.

Whenever he went to a relatively prosperous place, Gao Ziang ordered his men to buy food.

Wan Ning knew that there were some wrongs among these people. There may be people who don't know at all, such a big thing is not a good thing, it is a matter of life, how can everyone know about it? If there is a person who is not tight, it can lead to the death of some people.

So she often distributed food to them herself. In contact, you can also get to know them better. Wan Ning also hopes to determine the real culprit as soon as possible and not to involve innocent people.

Some people breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts, and they don't have a good face for Wanning, and they refuse to accept food.

The woman in front of her was one of them, she didn't look very old, but she could feel her anger from afar.

So, Wan Ning persuaded and explained: "Let's eat, eat well, so that you have the strength to be angry." ”

"Who are you?"

Li Yan, who came over, said angrily: "Presumptuous! This is our eldest lady. ”

The woman still said angrily: "Your father is dead, and he is going to pull us on his back?" ”

Li Yan tried to remind her on the side: "If you pour out the truth now, you may be able to pick up a dog's life." ”

Maybe it was the woman who felt that Wan Ning could be close, she grabbed Wan Ning with both hands and said pleadingly: "Miss, I really don't know anything, why are you arresting me?" Please, let me go back. ”

Wan Ning looked at her pious eyes, felt that she was really wronged, and comforted: "This is a big matter, and you will definitely be given justice when the time comes." In addition to saying this, Wan Ning didn't know what to say, and handed the food to her again, "Let's eat." ”

The woman was probably hungry too, so she finally slowly took the shortbread given by Wanning and devoured it. Although she ate, Wan Ning was still very uncomfortable in her heart.

She turned and muttered, "They hurt my father, my dearest and dearest." Otherwise, how could I insist on escorting some unrelated people back to Chang'an? ”

Li Yan was relieved: "Miss, don't blame yourself. This matter is decided by the emperor, and I believe that no one will be wronged. ”

It's good to be close to the town, just spend money to buy food.

But what if you are in the suburbs and you have almost enough food to eat, but you have nowhere to buy it? At this time, they will also stop, and Gao Ziang will take a few of his men to hunt, and his precise archery skills will come in handy.

There are many people, and they must hunt more prey. After returning, Wan Ning looked at the pile of prey placed on the ground, and her pity was offended again.

Gao Ziang naturally didn't care about anything, and with a few subordinates, he set up a fire and roasted it. Not far away, there are so many people waiting to eat.

Wan Ning stood still, watching them busy, and did not step forward to help.

Gao Ziang picked a fat pheasant, and he was going to eat it with Wan Ning. He knew what Wan Ning was thinking, until the pheasant was cooked, and he decisively bit it down a few bites, then he turned his face and smiled a little: "Wan Ning, aren't you hungry?" ”

Wan Ning slowly approached him and sat down. Gao Ziang tore off one of the pheasant's legs and handed it to her: "Eat." It's like eating chicken thighs at home. ”

She reluctantly took it, her eyes staring at the fragrant pheasant leg: "Slaughter so much at once." All lives are equal. ”

"What? Do you want to be a vegetarian? ”

"It's different, it's raised at home for practical purposes."

Gao Ziang took a big bite happily, chewed it, and said, "When you hold the power of life and death, you don't want all living beings in the world to be equal to you. Eat, eat once in a while, just to fill your stomach. ”

Yes, I'm so hungry, I should fill my stomach, and I have to hurry.

Wan Ning tried to take a small bite, and it was fragrant. Eat the second bite and the third bite......

Because of the large number of people, the speed of travel cannot be guaranteed. Sometimes, you can't touch the inn, so you can only rest in place. Whenever this happens, Wan Ning has to rest in the sedan chair. It's a lot harder to go back than when you came.

When there are still 100 miles of road from the capital, there are many mountain roads, and Wanning rests in the sedan chair for two or three consecutive days. Everyone could see the tiredness on her face, and sometimes it seemed that she couldn't hold it anymore, and she couldn't keep up her spirits in the daytime.

Gao Ziang looked strange and distressed. Looking at the others, they are also exhausted.

So he found an inn and planned to stop and rest for two days, and then return to Beijing in one go.

Wan Ning didn't expect that the second night she stopped to rest was the most extraordinary night of her trip to Liangzhou with Brother Ziang.

When they woke up in the morning, the two hugged each other and seemed very satisfied. Gao Ziang gently pinched her cheek, and everything melted into the smile that the two of them looked at each other at the moment.

After a moment, Gao Ziang said seriously: "I'm sorry, Wanning." I was so ...... last night."

Wan Ning covered his lips and said, "Brother, you don't have to apologize, I didn't refuse you?" ”

Gao Ziang's tone was a little brisk: "It's right if you don't refuse." Probably along the way, he was also a little unwilling.

"But I'm afraid."

"Afraid of what?"

Wan Ning didn't answer him.

In fact, Gao Ziang didn't know what Wanning was thinking, in short, just say something that made her feel down-to-earth. He said, "A woman's life is like a book." Take Sister Wan as an example, she was lively and cute when she was a child, and she loved to cry, and she was soft and sweet when she was a girl. I don't know when I've been trying to hold you in my arms, it's sweet and soft. I like it. After going through some worldly experiences, Wan Ning has become more and more mature and steady-"

His words were not finished.

Wan Ning interrupted him: "Now that you have it, it's not rare, it's not sweet or soft?" Perhaps this was Wanning's concern.

"If a man is not able to accompany a woman throughout her life, he is not qualified to be in her life. I was able to go through all the stages of Wanning's life, and I was lucky for a man. ”

Wan Ning was not reassured by his few words: "Is a man like a book?" ”

"Really? Do you have such a high opinion of men? ”

"Don't be too happy, I'm not done yet. The book for men has a glittering cover and a fascinating preface, but when you calm down and actually read the book, you can't read it. ”

Gao Ziang said disdainfully: "You haven't married me yet, how can you conclude that I can't read this book?" We're all like this, aren't you down-to-earth? ”

"I listened to my mother, even a good man like my father."

"Well, I won't say it, I can't compare to your father."
