Wei Jingji didn't expect her to turn back, but his body had already reacted for him, holding her firmly with both hands.

He bowed his head to her neck, greedily sniffing her body fragrance.

"I'm sorry."

Su Yao's eyes turned red, "You said, 'It's okay next time', are you afraid that you won't be able to come back?" ”

In front of him was an endless stretch of water, with golden fluctuations, and all the ships as tall as the towers came to a halt.

Wei Jing bowed his head and kissed her eyelashes, and his long hair was tied up like the sharpest sword in the world, flying behind him.

Sometimes silence is the default.

There is a deeper meaning in this, Su Yao didn't want to think about it, her voice trembled slightly, and said, "There is no next time, I will wait for you to come back." ”

"When you come back, we'll get married."

Wei Jingji's eyes moved slightly, and he smiled and said, "Ah Yao, you should let me come." ”

Su Yao began to play tricks: "This is not a courtship." When you come back, you're going to ask me again. ”

Rao is the coldest and hardest man in the world, and there are thousands of icebergs hidden in his eyes, which now have to melt into a pool of spring water.

Wei Jingji is no exception.

He hugged Su Yao in his arms for a long time, and promised, "Okay." ”

……

As soon as Su Yao got off the boat at the Liangzhou ferry, she was greeted by people who had been squatting there for a long time to pick up her luggage and horses.

She went with only a bag, some tea, snacks, and money, and nothing else.

When I came down, there were several more boxes.

It was originally prepared for Wei Jingji bedding, food utensils and other things, but at this time, one of them was also given to her, and even only one copy was also packed into a box for her.

Su Jiao stayed in Liangzhou for half a day with the people she received, and when she wanted to write to Bai Lu to inform them of her location, Bai Lu and the others had already arrived in Liangzhou.

Wei Jingji sent someone to send her all the way to Wuzhou Su Mansion, counted everything, and then left.

When Su Yao returned to the house, the feeling of rushing stopped.

When Mu Ru'an saw them sending Su Jing back, she knew that she had caught up and wanted to talk to her happily, but after Su Yao saw Wei Jingji, she became even more dull.

Several people changed tricks to amuse her, and she couldn't laugh.

Mu Ruan thought that it would be fine in a day or two, but who knew that for nearly a month, Su Yao did not get better.

Su Yao had tried her best to distract herself, not only going to the academy every day, but also helping Mu Ruan with the shop in her spare time.

But in my heart, I still carried a load of water, and I couldn't put it into practice.

Mu Ru'an was really worried, afraid that Wei Jingji would not have an accident, and Su Yao would be worried about her illness first.

He called Xiao Yingqing, Shi Mingjing, and friends from Wuzhou to set up a banquet and dance in the Broken Moon Building, and the right to relieve Su Yao's boredom.

Su Yao's eyelids have been jumping non-stop these days, and she has no heart to play, but she can't bear to refuse Mu Ru'an's kindness, and after leaving the academy, she went to the Broken Moon Building.

It was still a long time before the time of their feast.

Su Yao didn't listen to the play for more than half a month, so he sat under the stage and watched the restaurant Hua Dan open his voice.

She was not interested, and when she was distracted, the words "His Royal Highness the Prince" broke into her ears.

Su Jiao asked Bai Lu and Mu Ru'an to help her pay attention to the news from the capital, but so far there was no news about Wei Jingji.

“…… It was a terrible battle. ”

"Isn't it, even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not saved the two generals, and the methods of those barbarians are simply outrageous!"

"I thought it was just the Dongou Department, but I didn't know that they had already been linked with those Shimu people! This is a trap! ”

"Those pickled things! If His Highness can't find it, my Great Zhou Iron Cavalry will definitely break through their royal capital! ”

"It's hard to say, His Highness has been missing for seven days, and it is rumored that the saint has prepared to take the royal ...... in person."

"Bang".

There was the sound of cups and plates shattering.

Bai Lu exclaimed and picked up Su Yao's hand, the girl's fingers were white and delicate, but at this time, an inch-long blood mouth crossed the abdomen of the finger, and blood beads were dripping down.

"Miss, your hand! Come on, ask the doctor! ”

The people around him looked at Su Yao in surprise, but Su Yao seemed to be unable to notice the pain and asked, "What you said just now is true?" ”

The person who spoke just now didn't know why, but seeing that Su Yao had lost his soul, he also nodded and said: "It's true, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been missing for a few days, it is said that it is to stabilize the morale of the army, and the news has not been spread, but how can paper contain the fire, and now the entire Great Zhou has spread." ”

……

When Mu Ru'an and Shi Mingjing arrived at the Shattered Moon Tower, they thought that Su Yao had not arrived, and wanted to sit down and wait for her to come, but the shopkeeper of the Shattered Moon Tower came out in person.

After listening to the shopkeeper's words, Mu Ruan grabbed his shoulder in shock and said in disbelief: "What did you say? Say it again! ”

"Where did you say Ah Miao went?"

The shopkeeper had to repeat again: "Miss Su said that she has returned to the capital." ”

Although Wuzhou is prosperous, it is not as deaf and clear-sighted as the capital, and military affairs are not something that ordinary people can see.

Although Mu Ruan was in all directions, the news he could learn was only one or two of them.

To be clear about Wei Jingji's current situation and the timely battle report, Su Jiao could only return to Beijing.

What these people say by word of mouth is not necessarily true.

But there is one person who she can see at this time, and she is most likely to know Wei Jingji's situation at this time.

That's the eldest princess.

Su Yao returned to the capital again.

In the second month when she and Wei Jingji separated.

Before she set out, she sent a message to the eldest princess, so when she got off the boat, she saw Ying'er standing in front of the ferry waiting for her.

Ying'er followed two teams of honor guards, the gold-armored soldiers lined up on the street, and the maids had a canopy carriage in the middle, the body was inlaid with gold and jade, and the beads and agate were extremely luxurious.

The eldest princess has always been simple, and such a guard of honor is enough to show her attention.

When Su Jiao saw Ying'er, she wanted to ask, but Ying'er said: "The slave knows what the county lord wants to ask, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess asks the county lord to stay in the princess's mansion temporarily, and everything you want to know, His Royal Highness will tell you." ”

On the way to the eldest princess's mansion, Su Yao saw the old scenery and the familiar faces selling along the street, as if he was in a different world, and his heart was hanging higher and higher, and he didn't know when he would fall hard.

She thought she would be extremely resistant to returning to Beijing, until she stepped on the ground in the capital and realized that this was not the case.

In the past, in order to leave the capital for freedom, she regarded the capital as a flood beast, and she did not know when it came to her prison.

Now it is also for the sake of his own heart, and he has set foot again.

The eldest princess's mansion is as elegant and generous as ever, and the stone statues in front of the door seem to be dyed with Sanskrit incense, and the meditation is clear.

Su Yao looked at the plaque in front of the eldest princess's mansion and suddenly remembered that she had heard a rumor when she was in Wuzhou.

"It is said that on the day that the lord of Yongjia left Beijing, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince once walked in the rain for half the night, chased to the eldest princess's mansion in a panic, looked at the cold gate, but could only get the news that his beloved wife had left, and then fell ill for several months......"

The death of a gentleman is inevitable.

Moreover, although Wei Jingji is not a rule-abiding person, he has never done anything out of the ordinary, so such a gaffe on the street does not sound like something happened to him.

She had laughed at this rumor, but somehow, she remembered it accurately, and now standing here, she could even imagine what Wei Jingji looked like at that time.

Su Yaowu was stunned, and Ying'er didn't urge her, just waited beside her.

"County Lord."

Yan'er, another close attendant of the eldest princess, walked out of the door, "Greetings to the county lord." ”

Su Yao's gaze fell on her and politely returned the salute.

Yan'er said: "Your Highness has been waiting for a long time, please move to the Buddha Hall and see you." ”

—

The eldest princess is still dressed in plain clothes, white hosta and white jade chuan, and because of this, her black eyebrows and red lips are bright and dazzling.

When she heard the sound, she moved, and when she turned her head, she saw a girl covered in jewels, the rings under her eyes made a gentle sound, her complexion was as white as mutton fat jade, and her apricot eyes were bright.

Wei Wan had mixed feelings, the girl in front of her had a full life experience, but no matter how much she experienced, she was still only a teenage girl, and she was really embarrassed when she was less than 20 years old.

She opened her hands, "Ahma." ”

Su Yao stepped forward and hugged Wei Wan, "Auntie." ”

After speaking, she realized that the title was wrong, and when she wanted to change her words, Wei Wan said, "That's how it is called." After speaking, she said again: "Just get off the boat, do you feel unwell?" ”

Su Yao shook her head, and finally asked the question that had haunted her all the way: "It's okay, aunt, I want to ask you, is there any news about Wei Jingji?" ”

When the eldest princess faced her question, she did not answer immediately, but said: "Ah Yao, you have fulfilled your wish and gone to Jiangnan, why do you want to enter Beijing now?" ”

Su Yao said without thinking: "He went to Wuzhou for me, and I can also enter the capital for him." ”

The eldest princess seemed to be moved, and said, "The news you heard is good, but there is no news for the time being." ”

Su Yao's heart tightened and said, "Even you don't know?" ”

Wei Wan saw that she was in a hurry, so she ordered someone to pass the food, brought ice cream to cool off, took her hand and went to the pavilion, and said, "Ah Yao, you and I both know that sometimes there is no news, and it is the best news. ”

"The battlefield is changing rapidly, even a saint or a person himself can't predict it, and all we can do is wait for him to triumph."

Su Yao's long eyelashes slowly drooped, covering the emotions in his eyes.

The eldest princess said: "My aunt knows, you can't listen to anything you say now, but if you believe in your aunt, you have come all the way to find me, and I will not disappoint you. ”

When Su Yao heard the eldest princess pour out her heart and lungs to her like this, she also cheered up, and didn't want her to worry, "Okay, thank you aunt." ”

Later, in the middle of the month, Su Yao followed Wei Wan to pray in front of the Buddha every day.

It's a pity that the heavens don't seem to favor Wei Jingji because of this.

When the bad news came, the Buddhist beads in the eldest princess's hand broke off in response, crackled and fell to the ground, and rolled to the futon where Su Yao was kneeling.

It was as if her heart had been torn off and thrown into the snow, shivering with cold.

"Auntie, why can't I understand a word of what he said......
