Pei Yuanfeng also came back later this day. Knowing that Qinghan and I were about to set off to Xishan Academy immediately, he immediately frowned: "I'm leaving soon?"

Qinghan said: "It is better to be early rather than late in this matter."

Pei Yuanfeng looked at us worriedly: "But you just arrived yesterday."

In fact, this matter was indeed a bit hasty, but as Qinghan said, it is better to be early than late. I told him all the things Yang Jinqiao told me during the day. Pei Yuanfeng's face slowly sank when he heard it. I said, "The situation in Xichuan, you have been here for so long, and you must know that it is very complicated."

“…”

"We want to figure out what's going on before the emperor enters Xichuan, even if it can't be solved."

He frowned and thought for a while: "Will your brother not solve these things?"

I didn't say anything, and looked at Qinghan, and Qinghan said, "We have thought about this, but as the head of the Yan family, Yan Qingchen has a big goal. If he moves, the whole Xichuan will definitely move. By that time, things will be difficult to control."

“…”

"So, let's move first."

Hearing us say this, Pei Yuanfeng seemed to have nothing to say. He was silent for a while, and then said, "Let's leave tomorrow?"

"Um."

"Then, I'll send you some more people to follow you."

"No need," I hurriedly interrupted him: "Jianmen Pass is the gateway to Xichuan, and this place is very important. We have people around us, so we don't have to worry about our safety."

Pei Yuanfeng said: "I send more people, not only to protect you, but also - them."

He said, slowly turned around and looked at Xue Muhua who was holding Xiaoxiao sitting aside. When Muhua heard his words, he immediately raised his head: "What?"

Pei Yuanfeng said: "I want you to go back with them."

Xue Muhua's face immediately changed: "I don't want it! I want to stay here!"

"Mu Hua, it's not good for you and your children to stay here."

"But there is no harm, I didn't bother you."

"I'm not saying you disturbed me, I just think you should take Xiaoxiao back to Chengdu, which is safer there."

"Do you think it's unsafe? Then I'll stay here even more."

"I won't allow you to stay anyway!"

"If you can't say it's right, I insist on it!"

"you--"

The more they talked, the more excited they became. As they were about to quarrel, Qinghan and I looked at each other, not knowing what to do. At this moment, we probably felt the tense atmosphere. Xiaoxiao, who had been lying in her mother's arms and playing with a rattle, suddenly burst into tears.

The two of them were in a stalemate, but when they heard the child crying, they hurried to coax the child.

Xiaoxiao was crying red and her face was red. She held Mu Hua's neck with both hands, and tears rolled down her face. Her aggrieved look made people feel heartbroken. Pei Yuanfeng was rushing to caress her back, just like her heart was removed. Xue Muhua coaxed Xiaoxiao while looking up at him, her eyes were slightly red, and she said angrily: "Look, my daughter doesn't want to leave. Are you going to drive us mothers and children away?"

“…”

"Is there anyone who is a father like you?"

Pei Yuanfeng sighed: "Of course I'm not, I just--"

"We are a family, we can clearly be together, so why should we separate? If there is no danger here, then it is natural for me and my child to stay here, and the family should be together; if there is danger here, then my child should be with you even more!"

“…”

"No matter what, I will not leave you, nor will the children!"

Hearing her firm words, Pei Yuanfeng had no choice but to remain silent for a while, and finally sighed: "Okay, then you should stay."

Xue Muhua then breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his head and patted Xiaoxiao's back gently: "Okay, Xiaoxiao stop crying, your father still has a conscience. He will not drive us away, don't cry anymore."

When Pei Yuanfeng heard her words, he was so amused and laughed even more. Xiaoxiao didn't cry anymore. There were tears on her face, and she suddenly turned to laugh at Pei Yuanfeng. With a roar, he couldn't help laughing.

Qinghan and I were relieved.

They comforted the child for a while, and finally it was fine. Qinghan had already yawned and was so tired that he asked him to go back and rest first. I sent Pei Yuanfeng to the door, thought for a while, and said to him: "Yuanfeng, he - the emperor, don't know when he will arrive at Jianmen Pass, but I think it will not take long. For his safety, before we can send the exact news, we should not let him rashly enter Xichuan."

Pei Yuanfeng turned his head and looked at me: "Qingying, you-you still care about him?"

“…”

I was stunned for a moment, and looked at the slightly flashing of uncertain light in his eyes, and said lightly: "I'm worried about his safety."

“…”

"If something really happens to him, all my calculations and I will be in vain."

“…”

"He can't die."

He turned around and looked at me: "You have considered him so much, have you considered yourself? You and Liu Qinghan - do you have your own plans?"

I was stunned again, not expecting that he would suddenly say this, and he lowered his head and looked at me with a burning look: "Liu Qinghan, won't he marry you yet?"

I smiled in a daze: "What are you asking for this?"

He was silent for a moment, and then said, "I said, I am no longer qualified to take care of your affairs."

“…”

"But I still care whether you are happy or not."

“…”

"Since you two are already in love, why not be together?"

“…”

I looked at him quietly for a while, and my smile became a little bitter from the trance. I was silent for a long time before I said softly: "I know what you mean. In fact, he and I have thought about it."

"Then why-"

"Yuanfeng, I have no feelings for the country and the world, nor do I have the sentiment of worrying about the world before worrying about the world. I just know very well that there will be a complete egg when the nest is destroyed. He and I may be different from ordinary people. The changes in the world's general trend have a direct impact on us. Before the major event is decided, it will be difficult for us to consider this matter."

“…”

Pei Yuanfeng fell silent, his dark eyes looked at me deeply. After a long time, he said in a hoarse voice: "If you don't think about it, there will be someone else who will think about it."

I was stunned for a moment and looked at him with wide eyes.

And he himself seemed a little confused, his dark eyes looked even deeper in the dark light. He sighed and said, "Forget it, I'll go back to rest, you go to bed early, after all, you're going to set off tomorrow."

After saying that, he turned back to his room.

I stood under the eaves, and for a moment, watching his back disappear in front of him, and had not moved for a long time.

The night is so quiet that even during the day, the direction of the concubines becoming extremely noisy because of the concubines, it is so quiet that there is not even the sound of the wind. Only the sound of insects in the grass rings one after another, making the night more quiet.

I stood for a long time before slowly turning around and returning to the room.

|

The next morning, we got up very early.

They did not tell the concubines that we were leaving. After all, they would not care about our movements. But when I walked to the gate of the military camp, I saw that Yang Jinqiao was already waiting there. She looked at the team at the foot of the mountain without any surprise, watched us slowly walk forward with our luggage, and then came up.

"Your movements are fast."

I looked at her: "Empress Ning Concubine... knows we are leaving?"

She smiled faintly: "I told you about those things, can you not deal with them?"

“…”

"Thank you so hard."

Her words were not filled with any emotion, but it was really like sighing. I thought about it and then said, "It doesn't matter whether it is hard or not. I just hope that before we figure out the truth, there will be no accidents. If the peace talks between Concubine Ning and His Majesty the Emperor and Xichuan cannot continue, it will be a matter of pain for the relatives and a happy enemy."

Yang Jinqiao looked at me for a while, then smiled faintly.

She came to me and said calmly: "How should I tell the emperor that I have a sense of my own, but you should be careful."

I said, "Thank you, Concubine Ning."

Although she said this very reservedly, I believed she understood what I meant, so she bowed to her and walked down the mountain with Qinghan.

Pei Yuanfeng kept sending us to the foot of the mountain. Chabixing and the people had already been waiting here. After explaining a few words, we got on the horse. Just as we were about to set off, Yang Jinqiao walked up again: "Light."

Seeing that she was going to say something, I bent down from the horse's back, and she also raised her head, gently put it in my ear, and whispered: "Do you still remember the letter I gave you back then? Yun Hui's letter."

“…!”

My heart suddenly jumped.

Of course I haven't forgotten Yang Yunhui's letter.

After becoming Concubine Ning, she gave me the letter at Yang Jinyao's wedding banquet. It was a letter written to Yang Yunhui when he was sent to Xichuan to investigate some matters.

What the letter said throughout was his longing for her. Even if I, an outsider, could not stop my heart's sorrow, but there were some deeper things that were inevitably revealed between his pen and ink.

And now, Yang Jinqiao suddenly talked to me about this-

I slowly turned my head to look at her, and she whispered, "You won't forget it, do you?"

I said, "Of course not."

She smiled and said, "That's good."

“…”

"Although this matter has nothing to do with me, it may help you all the future."
