Outside the long pavilion, beside the ancient road, the fragrant grass is connected to the sky.
Duan Yunfei looked at their missing figures and couldn’t help but sigh.
“From ancient times, there has never been a separation of life and death in this ten-mile long pavilion. Whenever I stand here, I can’t help but feel sad.” Duan Yunfei turned around and looked at Mu Chuyang, with a sad expression on his face.
Mu Chuyang also became gentler. He slowly hugged Duan Yunfei, patting her back gently and whispered: “Don’t worry, Zuo Yuan is still the daughter of the Prime Minister’s Mansion after all, and Xiuheng dares not do anything to her. What’s more, isn’t there the jade pendant you gave her? I think Xiuheng will definitely let them come back safely because of the past love.”
“You… do you actually know?” Duan Yunfei couldn’t help but feel a little surprised, and suddenly raised his head to look at Mu Chuyang.
Mu Chuyang did not answer, but looked into the distance, with a faint smile on his lips.
After Xiu Huang and Zuo Yuan left Jin State, they rode their horses day and night. On the evening of the fourth day, they finally arrived at the border between Xiliang and Jin State.
“Zuo Yuan, after passing the village in front, we will reach the border of Xiliang. Otherwise, we will rest for a night in front and continue our journey tomorrow morning.” Xiu Huang pointed to Zuo Yuan not far away and said to him, with a little flashing in his eyes, as if he was escaping something.
Zuo Yuan knew what he was thinking, and reached out to hold Xiuhuang’s hand and said, “Xuhuang, since you have already walked here, what’s there to be afraid of? We have rushed so far, just to come back soon to see the last time we meet my father?”
Xiuhuang did not answer, but buried his head heavily, unable to say a word.
Looking at Xiu Huang’s appearance, Zuo Yuan couldn’t help feeling a little distressed. He stretched out his hand and held Xiu Huang’s hand tightly in the palm of his hand, saying to him word by word: “Xuhuang, you don’t have to be afraid in your heart. No matter what happens, I will be with you.”
Hearing Zuo Yuan say this, Xiu Huang then raised his head and looked at Zuo Yuan and nodded heavily.
They walked for another whole day before they really arrived at the capital of Xiliang.
“Zuo Yuan, this is my capital of Xiliang, where I grew up.” Xiu Huang turned around and looked at Zuo Yuan, his eyes filled with infinite expectation and longing, and he turned around excitedly and said to Zuo Yuan.
Zuo Yuan smiled at him, and sweat couldn’t help but seep out of her palms.
At this time, the key was set. The general guarding the palace city saw that they were standing under the city gate for a long time and refused to leave. He shouted at them: “What are you doing here? Go home quickly, otherwise you two will be arrested, and you will not be able to cry at that time.”>
Hearing the words of the general of the city gate, Xiuhuang raised his head and looked at him, and whispered to him, “Don’t even recognize me?”
Hearing Xiuhuang’s words, the general at the city gate rubbed his eyes quickly, and was shocked. He quickly rolled down and ran down in front of Xiuhuang and knelt in front of Xiuhuang and said to him, “Young Master Xiuhuang, why are you back? I’m sorry, I can’t recognize you, please forgive me.”
Xiuhuang was unwilling to be entangled with him, so he waved his hand to him and said, “I just returned from Jin State today. You should open the city gate and let me enter the palace to meet the emperor.”
