When two people sit down, they will naturally face each other.

There was a clamor outside for a while, and finally everything was arranged. I heard Song Huaiyi and his family standing at the door to say goodbye to Pei Yuanxiu and Song Xuan, and also heard all the normal news coming back from the advance team in front. Then someone outside gave the order, and our carriage swayed slightly and drove forward.

Because the road ahead was difficult to walk, the carriage was specially arranged. The two of them sat inside and seemed to be trapped in a cloud, but they didn't seem to be very moved.

But there was a constant flash of light in her delicately depicted eyes.

I kept looking at her, from her gorgeous clothes, to her delicate makeup, to her plain expression.

The carriage was very quiet.

Suddenly, she said, "What are you looking at? What's the best?"

I smiled slightly: "You are so pretty."

After saying this, I was stunned for a moment, feeling a little familiar. After thinking about it carefully, I remembered that it was a sentence that Nangong Lizhu said to me when I was in prison in Yangzhou.

But this sentence seemed to have provoked her, and she glared at me.

I smiled and said, "Don't get me wrong. I don't mean anything else. I really think that Miss Zitong's appearance this time is a little different from the past. You have become much more beautiful. I dare not recognize each other as such a radiant person."

Her eyes darkened slightly: "Do you think I was too ugly in the past?"

"Of course not, there are many things between beautiful and ugly."

"Oh? Then what do you think I am?"

I looked at her with a smile for a while, and then said, "You can't chase the past. Miss Zitong is very good now. If I want to remember the past, I can't remember it."

Her eyes flashed more and more.

After a moment of silence, she said softly: "The past cannot be pursued..."

“…”

"Yes, you're right."

“…”

"I was probably dead in the inner courtyard before, and I almost couldn't remember it."

When I heard her say the word "death", I understood the reason and couldn't help but tremble slightly. I could understand how heart-wrenching her change had gone through.

Thinking of this, my smile became a little gentler and I said softly: "Miss Zitong treats everything in the past as a dream. When I wake up from the dream, I have to face all the cruelty and tenderness of reality. I think Miss Zitong had already expected it before coming, right?"

“…”

She was silent for a moment, slowly raised her head and looked at me: "But what I didn't expect was that I would see you again."

"..." I was slightly stunned.

She said, "I thought you had left him long ago."

This time, my expression became slightly depressed.

After a while of silence, I slowly said, "If there are some things I can control, then maybe I will not be able to go this far."

She looked into my eyes and said seriously: "Of course I know that you were caught by him, and it is not easy to leave. However, - you are you after all, and you can even find a way to escape Nangong Lizhu and me in a desperate situation like the inner courtyard. Why did you never succeed in leaving him? Even when you were in Jiangnan, you were worried that you would be arrested if you escaped, but this place is so far from Jinling, and you should have had a chance, right?"

It seems that she, who is "resurrected from the dead", not only has a completely different temperament and mood from before, but also has clearer eyes.

I finally sighed: "Yes."

“…”

"After leaving Jiangnan, I do have some opportunities to leave."

“…”

"I thought about leaving, too."

Han Zitong looked at me with a slightly frown: "Then why haven't you left?"

She said, her eyes turned to my stomach again. At this time, my lower abdomen was becoming more and more obvious. Even if I were wearing wide clothes, I couldn't hide it. She said, "And, I know that if you follow your nature, you won't keep this child, but now you-"

“…”

"What are you doing?"

Actually, I was not feeling too depressed just now, but now when I heard her question, all the pain and helplessness at the beginning seemed to be resurrected in my heart. For a moment, I was entangled like a poisonous snake and tangled in my heart. I suddenly became heavy in my breathing.

I didn't answer her, but slowly leaned against the car board.

The carriage was not moving very fast, but the wind outside was strong, and the curtains on both sides were slightly raised, and my eyes also looked in the direction of the carriage.

When we go north...and then north...

I suddenly said, "Before you come, have you ever thought about the danger? If you are by his side, there will inevitably be casualties in this battle in the capital. Have you ever thought that the one who hurts may be you, the one who dies, or the one who is-"

This sentence was full of deep ominousness. Before I could finish speaking, Han Zitong frowned.

But immediately, a light flashed in her eyes.

"You are for-"

“…”

I slowly turned my head and looked at her.

She looked at me with a sudden realization: "Are you worried that if he successfully reaches the capital, he will definitely have a head-on conflict with the people in the capital, then-"

This time, I did not deny it.

When she said this, everything seemed to be as she expected. The bloody, dark scene almost came alive in my mind, and I slowly closed my eyes.

But even if you close your eyes, you still can't escape.

Fu Badai, Cha Bixing, Du Yan, Shui Xiu... and Chang Qing, Yang Jinqiao, Liu Li...

Those familiar faces flashed in front of my eyes like a revolving lantern, and finally, they gathered into a pretty, pink and jade-like face.

Wonderful words!

My wonderful words!

When I think of my daughter, I just feel that the blood in my body flows faster, making a buzzing sound in my ears. Except for a letter from her before, I didn’t get any news about her. What’s going on in the capital now? What would happen to her if the capital was in chaos?

Sometimes, even if there is no news, as long as you meet, it can make people feel at ease. But in my current situation, if I really meet her, it means that Pei Yuanxiu has captured the capital. Without a sword, no one can be lucky in a war. If that day really comes, the capital is in chaos, how many people I care about and the people I love can escape under that situation?

Han Zitong's voice was slightly astringent, and it slowly rang in my ears: "Do you stay here to protect the people you care about in the capital?"

“…”

I trembled slightly and didn't say anything.

Han Zitong looked at my pale face, and after a while, she couldn't help but sigh.

She said softly: "It will be very painful for a passionate person to live in this ruthless world. Don't you think it's very tiring to live like this?"

I looked up at her and then smiled, but the smile slowly became bitter: "Tired, of course, is tired, but can you do nothing if you are tired? Even if you are you, can you give up your daughter and your own relatives?"

"I?"

She seemed a little confused. She looked at me for a while and said slowly: "I don't have a daughter, but as a mother, no one can give up her daughter. But the relatives-" Her eyes suddenly darkened, and her tone added a little coldness: "When my relatives gave up me, they were just neat."

“…”

“From that time, I was no longer passionate.”

“…”

Looking at her cold gaze, of course I understood that the relative she was talking about was Han Ruoshi who wanted to kill her.

And her eyes were almost vicious and vicious.

At this time, no matter what I said, it seemed that it was not appropriate. I would definitely not persuade her, but I couldn't do anything to stimulate her, so I fell silent.

Instead, she looked up at me: "Why don't you speak?"

I said, "I told you all the things I should say when I was in Jinling. Now, when I saw Miss Zitong boldly pursue what she loves, I knew that my words had already worked. I had nothing to say to seek benevolence and get kindness."

Instead, she stared at me: "But I have something to say."

"I'll listen carefully."

"You-" She seemed a little hesitant, and after thinking for a while, she said, "You have arranged the matter in Yangzhou, Huai'an, right?"

“…”

I heard this question without surprise, and it defaults.

She gasped.

The question was asked, but after getting the answer, she seemed to be unable to believe it. She murmured: "How did you do it?"

However, she didn't seem to want my answer to this question. After looking at my lower eyes, she immediately said, "What would you do if Yuan Xiuzhen entered the capital?"

“…”

I slowly raised my head and looked at her: "What about you?"

“…”

"What will you do?"

She pursed her rosy lips: "I asked you first."

"But I don't think you need me to answer you."

“…”

"You already have the answer."

“…”

"You just want to use this answer, what do you mean to me?"

“…”

She looked at me silently. This time, there was a clear look of alertness in her eyes. Perhaps because of her exquisite makeup now, the expression of that look faintly brought a murderous aura. She said slowly: "I had suspected it before, but now I can really be sure that you did the things in Yangzhou and Huaian. Yan Qingying, you can be considered a human heart, you are so scary!"

I smiled.

Although the two sisters survived in the years of intrigue and fighting with others, it was not as easy as Hongyanlou, but the kind of life and death that is at stake every day is death when you open your eyes, and every night, you dream of death when you close your eyes every night. Not many people have really tasted it.

That's how I survived from the dead.

After laughing, I slowly said, "You have anything to tell me, tell me."

Han Zitong bit her lower lip, and her lips were bitten white. She said slowly: "I know I may not be your opponent, but I want to tell you that I will stop you."

“…”

"If you want to hurt him, if you want to destroy his great cause, I will definitely stop you!"

I still looked at her with a smile: "I never thought that if I wanted to destroy his path, you would stand by and watch. After all, you and him were always walking on this path. I just wondered why you told me?"

She said, "Because I owe you a life."

“…”

"I have never been relieved of you, and even killed you when I first met you. But this time, it was you who gave me a way out."

“…”

"I should have returned you and should have repaid you. But—"

"But his business is more important than your life, right?"

She looked at me without saying anything, but the firm light flashed from her bright eyes had told me everything.

I sighed in my heart and said slowly: "Actually, you may not necessarily tell me."

She looked at me and said seriously: "No need to say anything in the future."

...

The carriage fell into a silence. Although the two of them sat there motionlessly, they still swayed as the carriage moved forward, just like a person's fate. He obviously wanted to be stable, but he was like two pieces of rootless floating duckweed on the sea. At some point, a gust of wind and waves swept him into the bottomless vortex.

I smiled and said, "I understand."

Actually, she wasn't here to ask me or give me an answer.

She came to declare war on me.

However, because I saved her and gave her a chance to have a child when I was in the inner courtyard, this time, she was willing to face me openly. But in the future, the two of them will stand against each other, and what methods to treat each other, are not something we can predict at this moment.

Sure enough, as I thought before, although Han Zitong's change made Han Ruoshi feel like she had encountered a nemesis of fate, I did feel a lot of excitement, but now, when she faced me with such a clear and clear mind and firm mind, how many chances can I have to win?

Moreover, there is no room for maneuver at this moment, we are only one step away from the capital.

The carriage was still driving forward, and I didn't talk to her anymore, but the feeling of shaking made people feel more uneasy and anxious. I finally couldn't help lifting the curtain and looking out, and I happened to see a tall figure riding on the horse and walking in front.

His eyes looked straight ahead, looking deep and slim.

What will be waiting for him in that city he must go to?
