Yan Xiaoqing looked at me deeply and added: "If you want to know the whereabouts of your father, then help me handle this matter."
I smiled bitterly. It seemed that Yan Xiaoqing no longer believed in me. That's why he traded my father's life and death.
Although I felt very disappointed, I still agreed to him.
Yan Xiaoqing showed an expression of disbelief. It seemed that I shouldn't have agreed so simply. I should have at least hesitated, instead of agreeing before he finished speaking.
At this time, none of us knew that Xia Yan was standing outside the door, and he heard clearly what Yan Xiaoqing and I said.
If I had hesitated at this time, even for a moment, Xia Yan and I would not have reached that point.
The emotions we had built up before all collapsed the moment I answered simply.
In Xia Yan's eyes, this was betrayal, so he walked away in obscurity, pretending that nothing happened.
And I foolishly thought that Xia Yan knew nothing, and faced the future with a complicated and guilty heart.
After I came out of the dark palace, it was very humid outside. I could tell it had rained. The cold air spread through my nose and into my heart. I tightened the mink fur cloak around me.
It turns out it's winter.
In a blink of an eye, the day of departure came.
Everything seemed so normal, Xia Yan didn't do anything strange. I couldn't help but feel glad that Xia Huanzhi and Qi Qi didn't report my wanton entry into the dark palace to Xia Yan.
Twenty days later, we arrived at the imperial capital of Anguo.
After being married for several years, I returned to my hometown again. It would be a lie to say that I don’t miss it, but what I miss is only the joy that this land once brought me, and it has nothing to do with other people.
When Uncle Wang heard that Xia Yan had come in person, he lined the streets to welcome him, and even went thirty miles out of the city to welcome him. This shows that my Uncle Wang's shamelessness has reached a level that ordinary people cannot understand.
When he saw Xia Yan, Uncle Wang gave him a big gift first. The crown on his head did not match his petty and narrow temperament. I still remember that every time I went to the palace to see him on New Year's Eve, all the princesses and I would kneel at the feet of this man.
I said something honorable and honorable to him, but now the situation has really changed. Uncle Wang never thought that one day he would greet me in the same way I worshiped him.
Looking at Uncle Wang's hunched back, he called me diligently: "Queen Jin An of Xia Kingdom."
I smiled calmly: "Uncle Wang, doesn't he remember Changting?"
Uncle Wang was shaken all over, and the crown on his head trembled back and forth because of this movement.
Xia Yan laughed and said nothing, and I became even more confident: "Uncle Wang's great gift really ruined the pavilion."
Uncle Wang smiled dryly at me twice, then raised his head. When he saw me, the fake smile on his face suddenly froze.
He looked at me with disbelief: "Chang... Changting?"
He was right to be so surprised, because in his memory, he had no idea who An Changting was. It was normal for him to be surprised when he first saw me.
I smiled slightly: "Uncle Wang."
When I shouted, he became even more frightened: "Don't dare, don't dare."
All the clan members of Anguo came, and they all lowered their heads and showed respect to me.
After getting off the Luanyi car, I walked forward along a tapestry with Xia Yan's support.
This road used to be the one I was most afraid of taking, because every time I entered the palace, I would suffer some inexplicable ridicule.
But now, I am walking very calmly, and I am even in the mood to appreciate the three-dimensional reliefs on the palace walls.
ps: In fact, while you are looking forward to my updates, why am I not looking forward to your messages?
