I looked at the trembling little girl in front of me, opening my mouth and unable to say a word. I actually slept for three days? When I woke up, she told me that Xiao Yichen had already left for two days... I felt a little aching in my heart.
Spread, Yichen, did you do this on purpose? You actually left me while I was sleeping. Are you worried that you will be reluctant to let go, or are you worried that I am too fragile and cannot withstand this much separation?
"Princess, so is the prince..." As soon as the butler entered the room, he looked at me blankly looking at the jade Xiao in my hand. Xiao Yichen's name was engraved on it. And the one he carried with him was engraved with my name.
.
"If I set off now, can I still catch him?" I interrupted the housekeeper and asked.
The housekeeper said in surprise: "I can't do it, the prince ordered..."
"Butler, you just called me the princess. Now that I am the master and you are the servant, is it possible that in your heart, I am a false princess and am just for your prince to see?"
"Old slave, that's not what I meant..."
"Then prepare the horse for me." I turned and went into the inner room to pack my clothes.
The housekeeper looked at her helplessly. Although she was not officially named the princess now, she was already unofficially appointed. Besides, she was the prince's beloved woman. What should he do? Let her go! It's freezing in the cold weather.
Yes, the journey is long. How can she explain to the prince if something happens? She is not allowed to go, but what can he do as a servant? She secretly thinks that the errand that the prince has left for her is really difficult to handle!
I simply packed up a few clothes, took Yuxiao, and walked outside. Bingxue ran over shaking its little body and whimpering. I squatted down and touched its head, "Bingxue, stay here obediently.
Mom can't take you with me this time. But I'll be back to pick you up soon." She kissed its plush head and stood up resolutely to leave.
"Are you really going to find the prince?" Shui Lianyou appeared out of nowhere, with his unsheathed sword stretched out in front of me.
"You think I'm joking?" I asked without answering.
"Is the prince doing this for your own good? You will make him worry." Shui Lianyou's eyes flashed slightly, and the hand in front of me was hesitant.
"Do you have someone you like?"
"What?" Shui Lianyou was stunned for a moment, then said: "No..."
"Then please take your hand away, because you can't understand my mood." I said coldly. Yichen didn't even say goodbye this time. I believe this war is definitely not that simple, so I
I must go find him. I am tired of this endless worry and separation, which is like the edge of the sky, invisible and intangible, making people feel panic for no reason.
If it is really a disaster, let us face it together.
Shui Lian looked at me worriedly for a long time, then slowly removed his hand, "I'll go with you."
The butler exclaimed: "Water Guard... you..."
"There is an old saying that says to risk one's life to accompany a gentleman. Today I will follow suit." It was really unexpected that Shui Lianyou would say such humorous words.
I smiled sweetly, no matter what you have been like before, at this moment, I thank you and am willing to believe in you.
There is a vast expanse of white between the sky and the earth, and the snow has not stopped yet. It has been falling for two days and two nights.
I saw snowflakes still falling from the sky in droves, white tents seemed to be pulled up all around, and the earth was already covered in silver.
There were very few pedestrians on the road. Two maroon horses stood out among the white. They galloped past, leaving some traces on the originally smooth and smooth ground.
A spear blocked the way, "The city gate is closed today, we have to leave the city and wait for the snow to stop."
I looked at the open city gate. It was difficult to get in and out now. I frowned slightly and said, "I'm in a hurry. Can you make it easier?"
Another impatient voice sounded, "Why are you so annoying? The superiors have said to seal the city gate. If you don't give it, you won't give it. If someone in your family dies, you still won't give it..."
"Unbridled..." Shui Lianyou's face hidden under the mask showed no emotion, but his voice was cold.
"Who are you?"
Shui Lianyou turned to look at me, "You go first, I'll be there soon." I looked at the two arrogant guards and nodded.
"You want to rebel... Come here! Go and report to the general." There were sounds of fighting and exclamations behind me. I had no time to pay attention. I only knew that Yichen had already gone a long way. If I didn't speed up, he might catch up.
Not on...
The wind suddenly became stronger, and the flying snowflakes confused my eyes. I stretched out one hand to cover my eyes, and held the reins tightly with the other hand. My fingers were already a little stiff, and the skin on the back of my hand was green.
Purple.
Looking back, my eyes passed through the flying snowflakes, and I couldn't see everything behind me. I could only vaguely hear the sound of horse hooves, and he smiled. I don't know how good Shui Lianyou's skills are? But I believe he shouldn't have those guards.
question.
"Shui Lianyou, why do you have to wear a mask all day?" I changed my hands and asked him who came in a hurry.
Shui Lianyou's figure on the horse stiffened for a moment, "I'm afraid of being exposed to the sun..."
My eyebrows trembled slightly, and I looked at the vast expanse, "There is no sun now, only goose feathers..."
"I'm afraid of being blown by the wind...it's very cold."
I smiled noncommittally, it was a far-fetched reason, but who can say that there is no connection at all!
It is indeed very cold now, and my face is sore from the wind...
Suddenly, Shui Lianyou said solemnly: "Is someone chasing you?" He looked at me with a complicated look.
I was a little surprised, "Did you kill someone?"
"My sword has not been unsheathed... I'm afraid someone is coming to chase us..."
"Why?" I'm a little confused. We just had a bad attitude when we left the city. Are we wanted for this?
"Maybe..." Shui Lianyou only said these two words, and more than a dozen black shadows appeared in the white snow.
My eyes widened and I couldn't believe how fast they were. I looked at the horse I was riding and asked, "Is there something wrong with the horse you picked?"
"It's not that there's something wrong with the horses, it's that they were well prepared and they're good at riding."
"The general will invite the girl back to the city." I still didn't understand what Shui Lianyou meant when he said that they had been prepared. A dark figure stood in front of us, dismounted from his horse, knelt on one knee, and said respectfully.
Shui Lianyou and I were both stunned. Am I wearing men's clothes now?
"The general will invite the girl back to the city." The man kneeling on one knee repeated the story again. He raised his head and met my doubtful eyes - it was Cheng Yang.
"What will General Cheng Yang think if I don't return to the city?" As soon as I said this, Shui Lianyou's eyes showed surprise and he looked at me without blinking.
"The emperor has an order. If the girl insists on not returning to the city, then... the general will only be offended."
"The emperor has ordered that I not be allowed to leave the city?" I looked at Chengyang, and I was even more confused. Why didn't the emperor let me leave the city?
Cheng Yang's eyes flickered and he said, "Yes. So please ask the girl to go back to the city with the general."
I was confused, so I turned sideways and looked at Shui Lianyou. Cheng Yang saw me looking at him and said, "Guard Shui, it just so happened that the queen also had a message for me to convey to the general, inviting you into the palace, so you can come back to the city with me.
!”
Shui Lianyou's hand holding the reins shook, and her eyes dimmed when she looked at me, seemingly with a trace of apology and pity.
My heart sank, he is the queen's man? Now I don't know who is the real friend and who is the real enemy? Xiao Yichen's mother and queen should be friends, but she wants to kill me? But I can
Do you consider her an enemy?
He turned over and dismounted, and walked forward for more than ten steps. Several soldiers next to him wanted to step forward to stop him, but Cheng Yang stretched out his hand to stop him. Yes, you guys caught up with me while I was riding a horse. Now that I have dismounted, you are still afraid that I will run away.
Already?
He untied his jade Xiao from his waist and stroked the mark with the words "Xiao Yichen" on it. His eyes suddenly turned red - "Yichen, how long ago did we become less and less free! Is it so difficult to even see each other?"
Bringing it to my lips, the song "You are the wind and I am the sand" slowly flows out.
The crystal liquid dripped onto the snow, and the traces were immediately covered up by the falling snowflakes.
When the song stopped, I put my hand to my lips, looked at the distant sky, and shouted with a choked voice: "I will definitely wait for you..." The echo echoed for a long time, as if Yichen's gentle hand was giving me a response through the wind.
.
The jade ball on the bare branch seemed to be frightened. It was carried unsteadily from the branch and disappeared into the thick snow.
Shui Lian looked at that figure with mixed emotions, and then looked at Cheng Yang. Regardless of whether what Cheng Yang said was true or false, it was certain that the queen was probably going to take action this time.
Cheng Yang looked at her a little unbearably, and sighed, what's wrong with His Highness the Crown Prince? He knew that it was the Crown Prince who betrayed her in the first place, but now that she and the wise king are so in love, His Highness the Crown Prince intervenes again and insists on snatching her away -
- Nowadays, he even pretends to preach the imperial edict... But who can accuse him of being wrong? Look at the women in his yard... Only those who really love will be so reluctant to let go!
☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Xiao Yichen, who was heading north all the way, suddenly turned his head, as if he heard her voice in a daze. He smiled to himself, this place is thousands of miles away from the imperial city, she should only wake up today, how could she possibly
Hear her voice?
He reached out and took out the jade flute in his armor, his longing for her was beyond words, he kissed her name on the flute, a smile filled his eyes and brows.
Lin'er, wait for me, I'll be back soon!
He raised his riding whip and shouted: "Order the entire army to speed up." He ran straight away, his thoughts having already drifted to the place of longing thousands of miles away.
----------I still don't know that I missed it this time... A mistake lasts a long, long time.
