I don’t know how long it took, Pei Yuanhao slowly walked forward, stretched out a hand, and gently placed it on Li'er’s shoulder.

His movements were very light, and he could even tell his cherishment and caution from the movements of each finger, but I still felt Li'er's body tremble for a while. After a long time, I slowly turned around and looked up at Pei Yuanhao.

Pei Yuanhao said: "Li'er."

"Um?"

"Li Er."

"Um……"

Li'er was just staring at him with wide eyes, her eyes as clear as stars in the night sky, without any impurities, so black and white, with a pure light that was almost extinct, so clean that it makes people feel moved and so clean that it makes people feel distressed.

I even felt Pei Yuanhao breathing and heartbeat with pain.

He slowly squatted down, looked straight into Li'er's eyes, and said, "Li'er."

“…”

"I am your father."

“…”

"I am your biological father."

“…”

"I--"

He seemed to want to say something, but looking at Li'er's blank and clear eyes, it seemed that he could not say a word. He only gently held her soft little shoulders, but I watched him squat in front of Li'er, and the originally broad and sturdy shoulders seemed to be a little fragile, and even twitched slightly and trembled.

Actually, I don’t know what he can say or what else he can say.

He was her father, but he did not protect her well when she needed protection the most. Even after they met again, he knew that she had a desire for her biological father and family affection, but he did not immediately reunited with her. In just three days, how old and how long it was for a nine-year-old girl, he might be able to face everyone in the world with confidence, but he owed this daughter only.

Realizing this, Pei Yuanhao, who had never been fearless and had nothing to make him retreat, had almost a hint of helplessness in his eyes. At this moment, Li'er's little mouth trembled slightly.

"father."

“…!”

Pei Yuanhao suddenly widened his eyes: "You, what are you calling me?"

Li'er pursed her lips and shouted again clearly: "Dad."

“…”

This time, Pei Yuanhao stopped talking.

He seemed to be unable to believe it, and seemed to be too shocked. He could not imagine that Li'er would be so clear at this moment. He clearly called out the "father" without crying or making a fuss, or even asking the reason or asking the reason. It was just because he was her father and she was his daughter. So she did not have any difficulty in calling this call, because she should have been like this.

But it has always made these things too much and made people feel ashamed of thinking more.

I even felt a sense of sorrow in my heart, even my eyes turned red, so I could only turn my head away and look at the undulating river surface. Wen Fengxi frowned and looked at the scene.

There was deep anxiety on his face.

At this time, I heard Pei Yuanhao sigh as if it was laughing.

When he looked back, he held Li'er's arm tightly with his hands, as if he was holding the most precious treasure in the world. Even if he used a little more force, he would break her. If he let go, he might lose her forever. That expression of not knowing what to do is almost the first time in these years, and it appeared on his face, and that expression of sad, joyful, and at a loss was also the first time that it appeared on the face of the Nine Five Supreme, above ten thousand people.

After being silent for a long time, he slowly laughed: "I have lived for so many years and heard so many flattery and flattering words, but I have never been so instantly. Listening to these wonderful words is like listening to the music of immortals."

Li'er looked at him, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.

Pei Yuanhao said: "You are famous for your name."

“…!”

Li'er didn't react anyway, and my heart was already trembling violently.

Wonderful words.

This is the name he gave to Li'er and this daughter.

Miaoyan, Pei Miaoyan.

I was silently chanting this name in my heart, and I couldn't tell what it felt in my heart for a moment. I just remained silent for a long time, watched Pei Yuanhao slowly stand up, turned to me, and said softly: "Thank you."

“…”

"I've given me such a good daughter."

“…”

I looked at him, looked at Li'er, who was still standing in the same place, as if he was still savoring the word "Miaoyan", and said softly: "I have also been countless times, thank you."

His eyes flashed slightly.

"But, it's time for us to go back."

“…”

"The wind and waves on the river are too big," I said, turning to look at the river. The wind and waves gradually rise, making our ship shake constantly. I looked back at him: "Since His Majesty the Emperor does not want to see any waves on the river, then go back at this time."

After saying that, I reached out to Li'er. She looked at me and immediately walked up to hold my hand. I said softly: "Miaoyan, say goodbye to your father."

She seemed to be unable to fully integrate with this brand new name. After hearing me call her "Miaoyan", she raised her head for a while, looked at Pei Yuanhao with her big eyes, and then waved her hand gently: "Dad, goodbye."

While speaking, Wen Fengxi and his ship had already leaned on our ship. The wind and waves were too strong. The two ships leaned together and made a loud bang, and their feet were staggering. The boatman on the ship threw out a thick rope and asked them to tie it to the bow. After the connection was slightly tighter, Wen Fengxi took a few people on the ship and saluted Pei Yuanhao respectfully: "Emperor."

Pei Yuanhao then turned his head to look at him, frowned slightly: "Who asked you to come?"

"Mr. Liu ordered that no matter what, the emperor should not cross the river again."

Liu Qinghan!

As soon as I heard that person, the atmosphere suddenly condensed.

I held Li'er's hand and trembled slightly, and I also felt her little hand tighten.

"..." Pei Yuanhao subconsciously looked at Li'er and me and immediately, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes: "He, thank you for your hard work."

Wen Fengxi also looked at me. He was one of the people who was most familiar with all the undercurrents and all the entanglements. He did not answer this sentence, but clasped his fists and said respectfully: "The last general also believes that the situation in Jinling is unclear, and he is afraid that there will be changes. Please ask the emperor to set off and return to Yangzhou immediately."

He said, and looked at us again: "Madam and Princess Miaoyan, Mo will be escorted back to Jinling."

Pei Yuanhao still didn't say anything.

No one dared to move without saying a word.

But the river flow did not change with his will. As the river water slowly flowed, even if our ship had stopped, it was beaten by the river water and slowly sailed towards the south bank. As the distance was getting closer and closer, the flames on the shore soared into the sky, and each torch was almost clearly visible. I could even smell the faint iron smell of the blades and swords in the wind.

Wen Fengxi is right.

If you go to Jinling again, what if you really fight—

Thinking of this, I became a little anxious. Just as I was about to say something to him, I saw Wen Fengxi walk to him again. After he hesitating for a moment, he still whispered: "Emperor, Lord Liu asked the general to tell the emperor that good rain will bring blessings, and if the time is not selected, it will cause disaster."

“…!”

"Please think twice."

“…”

When I heard this, my heart suddenly moved, and subconsciously turned my head to look at our way back. It was already covered by the thick fog on the river surface, and I couldn't see anything or anyone. But I don't know if he was right on the shore, and he was also quietly watching the fog, wanting to see something through the fog.

When I turned back to look at Pei Yuanhao, the cruel look on his face did not diminish at all, but slowly turned around and said to Wen Fengxi: "Send them over."

As soon as this sentence was spoken, Wen Fengxi, Wu Yanqiu, along with me and Miaoyan, and even the followers and the imperial guards around him breathed a sigh of relief.

Wen Fengxi immediately clasped his fists and said, "The last general will take the order!"

After saying that, he walked up to us: "Madam, Princess Miaoyan, please."

I nodded, pulled Li'er and followed him. Although Li'er, who was holding my hand, followed me, seemed to weigh a thousand pounds every step, and kept looking back and looking at him.

Finally, Wen Fengxi finally helped us onto his boat.

The ship was much smaller, but it was faster. We stood at the bow and quickly turned around. Li'er was still lying on the fence and stretched his neck to see him. Soon, the distance between the two ships was pulled apart. Our ship stirred a gust of wind and penetrated into the fog. He could only faintly see his figure standing on the bow, looking at us motionlessly.

It was not until this time that I turned around and Wen Fengxi stood behind us, his face as if he was thinking.

Seeing me looking at him, his eyes flashed, but he immediately bowed and bowed: "Madam."

"Thank you for your hard work, General."

"I dare not," he said, smiling self-deprecatingly: "The emperor is right, but Lord Liu is more hard-working."

“…”

I was a little surprised. I didn't speak, and Wen Fengxi actually mentioned him in front of me.

Since he has been mentioned, the topic will naturally be turned to him.

I thought about it and said, "Is he okay?"

"Thank you for your concern, he's very good."

"His injury-"

"Not hindrance," Wen Fengxi interrupted me neatly: "It will not affect the main business."

I glanced at him.

While speaking, our boat was already riding the wind and waves, and the bow of the boat stirred up huge waves. After a while, it had passed through the mist and reached the shore. I could see at a glance that there were crowds of people on the shore, and countless torches were rolling in, as if a sea of ​​fire was lit on the pier. The fires soared into the sky, and illuminating every strange face.

And I saw that the familiar figure stood in front of me, a white dress reflected in the color of flames by the flames, and it continued to fly in the air with the wind, as if it also became a ball of flames.
