Qinghan sat quietly beside him. Except for what he said just now, he was very quiet at other times, and he was a little confused. When he suddenly heard Pei Yuanfeng ask him, he was still a little stunned: "Ah?"

Pei Yuanfeng repeated again: "How is your body?"

Then he said, "Thank you for your concern, it's nothing serious."

Pei Yuanfeng looked him up and down for a while and said, "Old Yao didn't come with you this time?"

Xue Muhua also said, "Yes, why didn't his father be with you?"

Qinghan said: "There have been too many things recently. He and Aunt Yin feel very tired. I've sent them to the mountains."

"Then your body-"

"It's okay, I've been taking the medicine all the time. This time I went there to prepare for detoxification."

After saying that, he glanced at me.

Speaking of this, he seemed much calmer than others, as if he was not the one who was poisoned. Pei Yuanfeng looked at him for a long time before saying, "You, take good care of yourself."

Qinghan chuckled and said, "Thank you."

We chatted again. Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker outside, even Xiaoxiao, who had been crawling around and energetic, leaned against her mother's arms and yawned, we realized that it was already very late. Mu Hua said, "Let's rest early. If there is anything, we will talk about it tomorrow."

Qinghan and I nodded, then stood up and said goodbye. Pei Yuanfeng put on a piece of clothing and said, "I'll send them to you."

In fact, it’s only a few steps away, and it’s really not necessary to give it to me.

We also felt that he should have something to say, but he didn't want to say in front of Xue Muhua. We walked out of the room and walked along the path for a while before Pei Yuanfeng said, "You go to Wuwei this time."

"Um."

"Last time, did you ask Luo Shi to borrow troops and was also in Wuwei?"

As soon as I heard this, I immediately understood that he was still a little worried that Huang Tianba would follow Luo Shi in Wuwei.

The relationship between Shengjing and Zhongyuan has reached this point. I think Luo Shi is unlikely to be out of the matter. Once the decisive battle comes, Pei Yuanxiu's victory or defeat is related to their interests in the Central Plains, and they will definitely intervene.

I said, "You can rest assured that this is not in Wuwei. When we went to the imperial tomb, we had also been to Wuwei near him. We met the defenders there, and they had already been replaced by the Iron Cavalry King. And his words revealed that there seemed to be some problems in Shengjing. I think Luo Shi should be unlikely to come to Wuwei."

Pei Yuanfeng was silent for a moment, and my words did not seem to make him feel more at ease.

I looked at him for a while and asked, "Yuanfeng, what are you worried about?"

He took two more steps forward, suddenly turned around and said to us: "A few days ago, a group of people transporting iron ore passed Jiange. I'm afraid you don't know yet."

"iron ore?"

Qinghan and I looked at each other, and I immediately asked, "Is it Taihe's iron ore?"

"yes."

“Where to send it?”

"Longnan."

My breathing sank a little.

It seems that when we didn't see or hear it, Pei Yuanhao had already agreed with Cha Lin in advance, or with Qingchen, that the iron ore transported from Taihe was sent directly to Longnan, and his destination after leaving Xichuan was also Longnan. I could imagine that he would make a big move next.

Pei Yuanfeng looked at us for a while and said, "It seems that you have known some things for a long time."

I sighed softly: "It's already true, and we can't do anything about it."

He heard it and said nothing.

But I only came to my senses at this time. Is it meaningful to put these two things together?

But at this time we have arrived, Yuanfeng said, "Okay, it's getting late, you can rest early. It's still a very difficult road to leave here."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

The fog in the mountains was heavy, and there was no moonlight. Only the faint light emitted by the lanterns hanging under the eaves not far away shone on his back and soon disappeared into the night. When I turned around, I saw Qinghan still standing in place. He seemed a little silent under the moonlight than before. The half of the mask exuded a cold coldness of ice.

I walked over and said, "What are you thinking?"

He looked up at me, as if he hadn't come back to his senses, his eyes still looked a little confused. I said, "You have been distracted all the time these two days. What are you thinking?"

He coughed lightly and said, "It's nothing."

After saying that, he looked behind me.

I heard the faint sound of footsteps, thinking that Pei Yuanfeng was returning, but when I turned around, I saw a slender figure walking over from the other end of the path.

As soon as I saw the outline, I immediately recognized it.

"Empress Ning?"

The figure slowly walked out of the shadow. It was indeed Yang Jinqiao. She said to us: "I hope it did not disturb you."

Neither Qinghan nor I talked. It was so late at this time. They lived on the other side of the village and wanted to say that they would take a walk. It didn't look like they were coming to find me.

Sure enough, she said, "Miss Yan, I want to say something to you."

Qinghan followed the good deeds and immediately said, "I'll go back first, don't be too late, you're very tired today."

This sentence seemed to be for Yang Jinqiao to hear. She looked at Qinghan's back as she turned around and left. After a while, she slowly retracted her eyes and looked at me: "This man seems to be very good to you."

I also looked at the back that was moving away, but for some reason - maybe because the temperature in the mountains was too low, a little chill made me shudder slightly, and I said softly: "Yes, it's very good."

“…”

"But it's just-it seems like I don't know what he is thinking."

"If this is true, then you have to be careful."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "..."

"I would rather be a man not by your side, but you are in your heart than let him guard you, but I have a lot of thoughts in my heart."

“…”

I was silent for a while and slowly turned around to look at her. When the lights in the distance came here, it was already very dark. I could only barely see her thin outline, even her cheekbones were rising high. It seemed that she had not lived so smoothly during these days here.

I said, "What do you want to tell me about Concubine Ning?"

She said: "I heard that the Sanjiang Dam in Xichuan has collapsed."

"Yes."

"So, there are indeed some secrets there, right?"

“…”

"Did he discover some secrets there?"

I looked at her eyes flashing slightly, as if she was eager to know something, but her tone seemed very depressing, as if she didn't dare to touch it easily.

Such contradictions made her look a little distorted and even painful.

I thought about it and said, "Have you asked His Majesty?"

She was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "The Emperor only said that some accidents occurred in the Sanjiang Dam and the dam collapsed. This incident may have a wide impact on Xichuan and the people of Xichuan. He was still talking about this before going to bed, saying that the Sanjiang Dam would be rebuilt in the future to protect Xichuan."

"Is this really the case?"

"What do I lie to you? I'm afraid my father will be involved in this matter."

I didn't expect that Pei Yuanhao would really consider this matter.

Moreover, Yang Wanyun was an imperial merchant after all, and his family was rich. Generally speaking, the imperial court wanted to build such a large-scale project, and some merchants must participate.

His brain meridians move fast.

However, what Yang Jinqiao is concerned about is obviously not this huge project.

I looked at her for a while, thought about it again, and then said, "What I want to answer you is that there is indeed a huge secret hidden there. Lord Yang - he should have discovered that secret back then."

I heard her breathing suffocate, and after a long time, I said hoarsely: "Yes, is it?"

I nodded: "Yes."

When I looked back and thought of Yang Yunhui's letter, when I saw that letter, I felt that the two words on the letter seemed a little abrupt - Singing Sanskrit.

There is no monk temple or nunnery near the Sanjiang Dam. How could he hear such a clear sound coming from a distant place?

This time I left Sanjiang Dam, I realized it.

The days he was exploring the Sanjiang Dam were probably the days when I jumped down from the dragon boat in Huyue Gorge and wanted to end my life, that is, my mother suddenly woke up from her meditation and left Sanjiang Dam.

Those clear voices were she praying and singing for me.

Yang Yunhui was once so close to that truth.

Or maybe, he had learned all the truth without seeing his mother. It was because he knew this truth that he would be-

Thinking of this, my throat was also slightly itchy. Looking at Yang Jinqiao's particularly haggard outline, I whispered: "Empress Ning wants to know, does it be that secret?"

She was silent for a while, then took a deep breath and said, "No."

“…?”

I looked at her in surprise.

I thought that with her nature, she would definitely follow this matter to the end and have to find out the truth. After all, she has been relying on this matter for so many years, but she did not expect that at this time, she actually gave up.

When she met my surprised gaze, her eyes looked a little haggard in the dim light, and even showed a loneliness that she had never felt before. After a long time, she slowly said: "What's the point of knowing now?"

“…”

"I'm afraid that after I know, I will feel more unwilling."

“…”

"And he won't come back after all."

“…”
