"Now?" Yan Qingchen frowned, looked at the heavy night outside the window, his eyes full of worry, but he didn't say anything.

He is very good at judging the situation, and at this time, of course, he is also the one who understands my decision the most.

But he was silent for a moment and said, "But you-"

I looked at him and smiled faintly: "I don't think you will stop me."

“…”

"Now, Pei Yuanxiu has taken a step ahead of us. If we don't take a step first at this time, it may be difficult for us to recover this game."

“…”

He didn't answer my words, but just lowered his head and looked at his two unconscious legs. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "I just hate myself!"

"Qingchen..."

My heart felt sad and I just said softly: "This is not your fault."

“…”

After saying that, I didn't know what else to say to comfort him. For a moment, both of us were silent. He had already taken a deep breath, restrained his anger and helplessness at that moment, and then raised his head to look at me and said, "If my sister is leaving, it's best not to bring anyone around you."

I hurriedly said, "I understand that Susu and Uncle Wuwei will continue to give instructions."

"Um."

"Try to hide it for me. If the fifth uncle and Pei Yuanxiu come, it is best not to let people know that I am leaving...especially the old lady."

"I know how to do this."

"There's one more thing," I hesitated for a moment and said, "That Yin--"

Speaking of this, I still hesitated, and Yan Qingchen only heard a word, as if he had seen everything. His eyes were flashing with a brilliance, and he looked at me calmly. I thought for a while and said, "I know that no one cares about her now, but I must not let Pei Yuanxiu find her."

"I know, don't worry."

I was really relieved after he said this, and then nodded: "Then I'll leave."

While saying that, I reached out to support the edge of the bed and stood up. When I was turning around and about to walk outside, Yan Qingchen hurriedly supported himself and grabbed my wrist: "Sister!"

I looked back at him.

Under the dim candlelight, his face became paler and bloodless. Perhaps because of this reason, his eyes when he looked at me became more solemn. He said, "Sometimes, being kind to the other person is cruel to himself. Sister, you should understand better than anyone else after you have experienced the incident in Hongyanlou."

My face suddenly sank.

He looked down at his unmovable legs and said softly: "I understand."

“…”

“I know what I should do.”

Yan Qingchen didn't say anything, but looked at me deeply again, then let me go, I turned around and walked out, and behind me, he immediately asked the servants outside to come in and ask someone to prepare for me immediately.

The night is still deep.

But in such dark night, there are some things surging in the darkness.

I found Su Su and told her my decision. I finally persuaded her to stay. She felt very aggrieved, but in the face of my almost tough order, she could only agree to me and promised that at least before Pei Yuanxiu and his friends returned to Chengdu, they would help me create the illusion that I was still in the Yan family, and even the fearless monk wanted to cheat.

She muttered, "He must have twisted my head off when he got angry."

I smiled and said, "He is afraid that I will be angry and dare not."

As I said that, I rubbed her hair and turned around and left. She wanted to come and see me off, but I was worried that the sky outside was about to start to brighten and could not disturb more people, so I refused her and just let her stay in the room obediently.

When he went out, Yan Qingchen's servant was already waiting for me outside and whispered: "Miss, the man and horse are ready. Please follow me."

I nodded and followed him out.

Because I wanted to hide my eyes, I was not riding a carriage, but riding a horse, and even the arranged people were not waiting at the main entrance. I followed the servant and saw a tall horse that was shiny black and shiny, almost completely in the night.

With the dark clothes I just went back, I almost completely integrated into the night.

Following behind was Yan Qingchen sent people. Not many people. I took a look at it for a moment, but there were only about a dozen people.

The attendant said, "The head of the family said that in order not to attract attention, the people brought by the eldest lady will not move for the time being. These people were sent by the head of the family."

I nodded, I feel at ease when Yan Qingchen does things.

The servant helped me get onto the horse. I held the reins and felt that the horse was a little recognizable and waving its head uneasy. As soon as I tightened the reins, I heard a very gentle voice coming from beside me.

"Cousin."

As soon as I heard this voice, I didn't react. The servant immediately turned around nervously and saw Yan Ruoyu standing at the door, the lanterns under the eaves shining on her thin and fair face, still holding her hands in front of her, looking graceful.

The servant didn't expect her to come back and immediately frowned nervously.

I also frowned slightly: "Ruoyu? Why are you here?"

She walked up with a smile, looked at the person behind me, and said, "Don't worry, cousin, no one saw it, I came here secretly."

“…”

"I will also help my cousin hide this."

I was stunned for a moment and looked at her: "You, there is no need to do this."

She smiled and said, "My cousin may not form an alliance with me, but my sincerity is still there."

“…”

"We can still win together."

“…”

I looked at her and my mood was a little complicated at this moment. After a while, I slowly said, "You have to understand that what you want to win is actually much harder than what I want to win."

“…”

"Sometimes, the outcome of a war is easy to determine, but changing a certain mindset in people's mind is much more difficult than winning a war."

"Yeah?"

"Yes. My cousin doesn't give up easily, neither do I."

“…”

I know that such a woman has such a mind and character that is not so easy to reverse, just like she wants to reverse everyone's minds. So I sighed and said, "Okay, I know that what you decided is difficult to change. If you want to do it, just do it."

She smiled and nodded.

I also nodded at her. At this time, the horse under the seat had slowly tameled. I looked back at her again. Seeing her standing there, she waved her hand gently at me, I grabbed the horse's belly. The horse rushed out like an arrow from a string. The guards followed immediately and quickly left them and the Yan family far behind.

|

Time passed quickly as I continued to gallop, and the sky gradually became brighter.

The last bit of coldness at night came to my face with the wind, which soon blew my hair into a mess and my face almost cold and numb.

My riding skills were practiced to go to Longnan and Wuwei to bring reinforcements. I haven't ridden a horse for so long, but it's okay. I'm not completely unfamiliar. I just bumped on the horse's back for a long time and felt sore back. But time was tight, and we didn't stop until we left Chengdu City.

The Yan Family Ancestral Hall is located in Wolong Town, about 200 miles southwest of Chengdu City. It was the place where the Yan family emerged. I just visited it when I was very young. Now, I have almost no impression of it.

Only some blurry shadows in memory are left.

After all, girls are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall, and sacrifices are all men's business. Even if my mother and father were not separated and I did not leave Xichuan, there would not be too familiar to me.

Fortunately, there are people sent by Yan Qingchen, who are very skilled in riding and are tightly protected by me.

After a whole day of galloping, in the afternoon, we passed a very rugged mountain road and finally saw a flat area ahead. One of the guards walked up to me and pointed ahead to let me see that the village was exposed behind the green forest.

He said: "Miss, that's it."

I looked at the village, which coincided with the blurry shadow in my impression. I held the reins tightly and turned to them and said, "Okay, let's speed up our journey and get there before dark."

They nodded and followed me down the hillside, but just as they went down, there was a rapid sound of horse hooves coming from beside them, and smoke and dust scattered. When they looked closely, they saw that the two people we sent to explore the way rushed up and ran to me, and said hurriedly: "Miss, there are people lying near us!"

"What?"

I was shocked: "Who?"

"It seems that it should be the one sent by Pei Yuanxiu. One of them has appeared in Chengdu before, but I didn't see him later. I didn't expect to be here."

The people around Pei Yuanxiu?

A thought flashed through my mind and I immediately understood - Pei Yuanxiu was not stupid either. He might have realized that if I knew that he would go to pick up Yan Gang halfway, he would go to the ancestral hall in advance to prepare, so he had already set up obstacles here to block me!

Sure enough, he is not easy to deal with!

At this moment, my mood became heavier, but immediately, I took a deep breath, looked up and said to them, "Don't worry about so much, rush over first."

"yes!"

They responded in unison, without my orders, some people had already taken out their weapons. With my wave, they rode their horses with me and galloped forward.

Just as we were galloping forward for about three or four miles, I found smoke and dust rising from both sides of the road.

Someone is following us.

Moreover, according to the place where the smoke and dust were rising, they were getting closer and closer to us. Without saying a word, I led them into the dense pine forest ahead.

Here, it has become a battlefield for hunting and hunting.

Soon, I saw those who had been chasing us through the gaps in the woods, and I could see at a glance that the one who was leading the way was the cloth that we had fought with in the Bodhisattva Temple of Sashen Cliff a few days ago!

When I saw him, I felt cold sweat appear all over my body. I immediately waved the whip in my hand fiercely. The whip made a whimper in the air, forcing the horse under my seat to gallop more and more. The wind kept whizzing in my ears, and at this moment, some cold light flashed in the corners of my eyes.
