"Who are the people the princess is talking about?"
Ling Yue shook her head, "I have no choice but to say so."
"Princess……"
"I told you not to call me princess..."
"Miss, where should we go now?"
"Where should we go?" Ling Yue frowned. She was unfamiliar with the place here, and she couldn't even figure out what other places there were in the Tang Dynasty. It was over, and now she didn't even know where to go.
"Let's go first. Wherever you go, that's where you will go."
"Oh...but the next city is still several miles away from here."
"How far? Then why didn't you tell me earlier? If we had known this, we would have been able to take a ride just now."
"The lady didn't ask..."
"I...oh...let's go..."
The gloomy sky has not yet cleared up, and Ling Yue and Xiao Xi are walking slowly into the distance, getting farther and farther away from Chang'an, until they can no longer see the shadow of Chang'an City and can no longer smell the bustling atmosphere of Chang'an City.
Along the way, the two of them hiked mountains and waded through rivers, and climbed over a small hillside with their tired bodies. Ling Yue also fell down during the process. Fortunately, there was a stream, helping her to walk slowly.
Passed the hillside.
After climbing over the hillside, fortunately there are several farmhouses at the bottom of the mountain.
So they rested there for a while. The owner of the farmhouse was hospitable and enthusiastic and insisted on letting them stay there. Lingyue and Xiaoxi also felt a little tired, and it was getting late. If they continued walking, they would have to sleep in the wilderness.
After thinking about it, they stayed there.
That night, there were no stars or moon. It was pitch black outside and the cool air was extremely strong.
Ling Yue stood at the door, looking at the dark night, somewhat lost in thought.
There was no wind this night, but Ling Yue felt waves of coldness coming over her. She subconsciously hugged her body tightly, but she heard the sound of something falling to the ground.
She lowered her head and groped for a few times on the ground. After picking it up, she realized that it was the ruby she had previously worn on her forehead.
Looking at this gem, Ling Yue felt empty in her heart. She carefully wiped the dust on it, but her mind suddenly remembered the words between him and Empress Wu. When she thought that she was just a pawn in his game, she couldn't wait to throw this gem away.
The jewel was thrown away, and it was thrown far away.
However, every time she raised her hand, she did not have the courage to let go.
Maybe, keep it as a souvenir.
She squatted at the door and put the gem on her cheek, feeling a chill coming over her.
Xiaoxi came out and put a thin coat on her, "Miss, you seem to have something on your mind?"
"We've come to this point, and worries are inevitable. Xiaoxi, do you think if you like someone, will you care about his every move towards you?"
"Huh? Miss? Why do you ask such a question? Does the miss... have a sweetheart?"
"No...no, don't think about it."
"Miss, you must be like this."
"I said no, it's no. Stop messing around."
"Actually, miss, if you like someone, you will definitely care about every move he makes towards you, whether good or bad."
Ling Yue thought for a while and remained silent.
Just when she was about to say something, a light suddenly flickered not far away.
First one, then two, then three, and finally two rows appeared one after another. As the lights got closer and closer, there were also bursts of footsteps and horse hooves.
Lingyue and Xiaoxi's bodies were shaken. They knew this sound all too well.
