When we saw her leaving like this, how could we hold back? Not to mention me, even Pei Yuanhao frowned and held the reins and almost rode his horse over.
But just as Nangong Lizhu took two steps, she stopped again and looked at us. Her eyes were gone, empty and scared. Her voice was not emotional. She was plain and cold as if the wind came out of the snow-capped mountains.
"No one should follow you."
“…”
"I don't want to see anyone."
“…”
"If you dare to follow me, I will die to show you!"
This sentence was like a knife, slashing hard in front of us. Everyone stopped and I didn't dare to act rashly.
After saying this, she didn't even look at us anymore, turned around and left.
Her words just now were to Nangong Lizhu, every word was to kill the heart!
Seeing Nangong Lizhu walking away, the Iron Cavalry King made a color at the servants behind him. The people immediately followed him, but did not approach her, and only protected her and walked away stumbled away. After a while, her lonely back disappeared from our sight.
My heart also sank.
Nangong Lizhu, she couldn't accept that we came to find her to detoxify Liu Qinghan. Of course, what she couldn't accept most was that Pei Yuanhao did this, and he didn't know what such a blow would do to her.
I looked into the distance anxiously, turned around and looked at Qinghan who had not spoken a word. His face was particularly pale, and his solemn eyes seemed to have been pressed against a big stone weighing thousands of pounds in his heart.
At this time, Yao Lao suddenly said, "Li Zhu!"
He was anxious to rush over, but Pei Yuanhao waved his hand and the servants around him immediately came forward to stop him. Yao Lao suddenly became anxious. He shouted: "What are you going to do? I want to find my daughter back!"
He said, and started fighting with the guards.
But, after all, he was old and exhausted, and the two guards stopped him, leaving him helpless.
I quickly turned over from the horse's back and reached out to dissuade him, "Old man, don't be impulsive. I think she may have suffered some blow just now, and you also understand her character. If you have to force her at this time, I'm afraid she will really force her to death."
When he heard the word "death", Yao Lao trembled and suddenly calmed down.
I was sweating myself, but I still grabbed his wrist hard and said in a deep voice: "Calm down, let her calm down!"
“…”
"Don't force her!"
Perhaps my words finally played a little role, or maybe I was really afraid of being forced to see Nangong Lizhu in a hurry. Lao Yao slowly calmed down and felt that the strength in his hand was slowly removed. I carefully let him go. He turned his head and looked forward. Nangong Lizhu's back had disappeared. He said in a hoarse voice: "Then what should she do?"
“…”
"Don't you just let her do this?"
I also fell silent.
What should she do? What else can she do?
Just from the words she just said, her eyes, and her turn and leave, leaving us with the last back, I could almost feel the helplessness of being desperate, but I understood even more that at this point, no one could help her, and she was the only one who could stand up.
In this world, the only one who can truly save oneself is himself!
I said in a deep voice: "Old Yao, she is already an adult. She should know what she is doing. I think she needs some time to stand up. During this period, no one should disturb her, otherwise, it may only make her sink deeper."
“…”
Hearing me say this, Yao Lao seemed to understand it. His panting slowly calmed down and he looked into the distance.
At this time, Miaoyan looked up at me, and her face turned particularly pale, like a scared little rabbit, and her voice was timid: "Mom, I-I didn't mean it-"
“…”
"I really didn't expect her to-"
I stepped forward: "Mom knows."
She is too young and doesn't know that there are heart-killing words in this world.
Although her words were the truth, they made Nangong Lizhu misunderstand that we just treated her as a tool for detoxification. This was a denial of her entire life. Especially when she thought Pei Yuanhao saw this, she almost destroyed her entire body.
This consequence was something Miaoyan never expected.
Seeing her eyes turned red, as if she was about to cry, I hurriedly said, "Mom knows that you didn't mean it, so this matter is - don't blame yourself."
At this moment, Miaoyan suddenly rushed down from the horse's back.
Yangchu was caught off guard and couldn't stop her. Fortunately, she was agile and fell steadily on the ground without even shaking. I hurriedly said, "Miaoyan, what are you going to do?"
"I'll go and persuade her back."
"Don't do it randomly!"
I was worried about Nangong Lizhu, and secondly, if she ran around again now, then this exchange would be-
Just thinking about this, my heart suddenly stumbled. Until now, Pei Yuanhao has not said a word, nor has he intended to continue to exchange with the Iron Cavalry King.
I turned my head to look at him, and saw his face calm and said to Miaoyan in a deep voice: "Miaoyan, if I want you to stay there, comfort Concubine Nangong and advise her to come back, are you willing?"
Miaoyan hurriedly said, "I do!"
“…”
"I can do it, but I can't make her angry. I will definitely comfort her and persuade her to come back!"
“…”
Pei Yuanhao looked at her with a flash of eyes, and was silent for a moment. A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said in a deep voice: "What a good daughter."
My heart sank. It seems that he really doesn't plan to exchange with them anymore, but wants Miaoyan to stay in the camp of the Iron Cavalry King.
I whispered: "Your Majesty—"
He glanced at me and said, "You should understand what I mean."
“…”
Of course I understand that this is what I have been hesitating before, but now I see my daughter approaching her, and I can clearly change her back, but I want her to leave me. This feeling is like poaching a piece of meat from my heart.
I looked at him with difficulty and looked at Miaoyan ahead. The girl seemed to feel my pain. She began to comfort me: "Mom, don't worry about me, I will definitely persuade her to come back and detoxify the third uncle!"
At this time, Qinghan slowly walked up and said, "Miaoyan..."
As soon as she saw him, Miaoyan showed a little embarrassed expression. She shrank her neck and then said softly: "Uncle San."
“…”
"I'm sorry, I-I didn't mean to treat you like that, and I don't know what..."
“…”
"Uncle San, I'm sorry."
“…”
"I treated you like that at that time, don't blame me."
Qinghan looked at her with a complicated expression. Obviously, he was still a little unacceptable to these many sudden changes, but he still said gently: "Why would Uncle San blame you?"
“…”
"But, did you really decide to stay there?"
Miaoyan bit her lower lip and nodded vigorously.
Qinghan looked at her with a deep brow frown, and didn't say anything at this time. The Iron Cavalry King looked at us and his face gradually became serious. He said, "You have decided?"
Pei Yuanhao looked up at him and said, "I just want to ask you now, are you still counting the promise you made yesterday?"
The Iron Cavalry King said calmly: "I have always made a promise."
"Okay--" Pei Yuanhao once again looked back at Xie Feng who was unconscious, and then said: "Then today's exchange ends here."
When I heard his final words, my heart sank and looked at Miaoyan reluctantly.
Really won't you exchange her back?
Then what will happen if she stays with the Iron Cavalry King?
I won’t let her come back today. When will my daughter return to me in the future?
Seeing the Iron Cavalry King waved his hand to the person behind him, his Iron Cavalry was about to turn around and go back. Yangchu originally reached out to Miaoyan, wanting to pull her back to his horse's back, but Miaoyan walked to the side and led another horse, and turned over to the horse's back.
She obviously doesn't want to be controlled and manipulated by anyone anymore.
However, just when everyone was about to leave with the Iron Cavalry King, she couldn't help but turn her head and look at me. I felt sad and tears came up: "Miaoyan..."
She waved at me hard: "Mom, Father, don't worry about me."
“…”
"I will take good care of myself."
“…”
"I will persuade Concubine Nangong to come back!"
After saying that, the teams on both sides slowly gathered in the middle, and in a short while, her figure disappeared into the crowd.
At this time, I could no longer control myself, and tears suddenly filled my eyes, but I still tried my best to open my eyes and look ahead, but I could no longer find my daughter.
Finally, the Iron Cavalry King took his people away, leaving only the smoke and dust they raised up in the sky. Gradually, they completely submerged their distant figures. There was nothing in their eyes, and only we were still standing quietly in place.
At this time, Pei Yuanhao slowly turned his horse's head and looked at us.
Qinghan finally took his gaze back. He looked at him with a serious expression and looked very complicated, and then looked at me again.
And I reached out to wipe away the tears on my face in a little embarrassed manner, but the sorrow in my heart still surged up, making me unable to calm down.
The three of them looked at each other so quietly for a long time. Pei Yuanhao finally said, "Let's go back first."
“…”
