Nangong Yu's dark eyes turned extremely cold and he suddenly sighed and said, "Okay, I won't leave until you tell me."
"After leaving Nanyang County, the princess first returned to Baihui Mountain, then passed through Hancheng and then went to Bai County. She should have left Bai County now."
Hearing this, Nangong Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and said in confusion: "What on earth does she want to do in such a big circle?"
"My subordinates don't know that the princess seemed to have met the killer sent by Nangong Ling at the exit of the back mountain of Baihui Mountain. I wanted to order people to investigate, but Nangong Ling's people did things neatly and didn't leave much information at all."
"Oh, that means Nangong Ling also knows her whereabouts." Nangong Yu's dark eyes darkened and his voice became deeper, and a frightening sense of oppression emanated from his body [
"If my guess is good, it should be" Qing Niao answered truthfully.
Nangong Yu suddenly fell silent and thought for a long time before slowly saying: "Qingxiao, go and get rid of the princess. You can test her intentions first. If she doesn't want to come back with you, don't force her to send someone to protect her. Wait until she is closer to Yingdu." I will go find her myself."
"It's the prince." Seeing that the prince had given in, Qing Niao took the order without saying anything and left the study. Unexpectedly, Su Ya was already waiting outside the door. He stepped forward and bowed respectfully: "Princess."
Su Ya nodded, looked at Qing Niao with a slight smile on her delicate and delicate face, and asked: "Your Majesty, you didn't sleep last night and are still in the study room. I wonder if you can have breakfast?"
Qing Niao lowered her head slightly and replied: "Princess, don't worry that the prince has already used it."
Su Ya nodded again, but a sinister look flashed quickly in her water-cut eyes. Although the little daughter's coquettishness was fully displayed, her tone made Qingxiao stiffen.
"Master Qing is looking for Miss Shui, who has nothing to do with the prince."
"I'm sorry that I can't tell you what the prince ordered." Qing Niao is originally from Nangong Yu. He doesn't need to pay attention to anyone except the prince. Although Su Ya is a noble princess in a barbarian land, he hasn't broken the rules. What's more, Su Ya has been doing this for the past few days. He sees everything she does. This woman is definitely not a kind person. If she knows the whereabouts of the princess, she will be in another layer of danger.
Seeing Qing Niao's attitude, Su Ya suddenly became angry, but it was not appropriate to have an attack outside the prince's study, so she had to hold it back, pretending to be calm, smiled and lowered her voice and said: "Since it is the prince's order, it means that Mr. Qing is indeed I’m looking for Miss Shui, but I don’t know where Miss Shui is now.”
Qing Niao looked at Su Ya leisurely and smiled politely and said: "Since the princess is so concerned about this matter, why doesn't she go in and ask the prince? After all, it is the prince's order."
"The prince has so many things to do, how can I disturb him?"
Qing Niao stopped talking and walked around Su Ya and was about to leave, but she grabbed her sleeves and said, "I wonder what kind of identity Miss Shui will come back under."
Qing Niao frowned slightly but replied with a smile: "It's great to have friends from far away." Without saying anything, he pulled back his sleeves and left.
Su Ya looked at Qing Niao's leaving back and clenched her fingertips so hard that her palms ached. Her eyes were no longer charming, ferocious and vicious.
"Princess", the maid Lu'er saw the princess losing her temper and quickly reminded her in a low voice.
Su Ya turned around and glared at Lu'er, then looked at the door that had been closed, her heart already filled with rage.
Shui Lianyue, you are really good at making Brother Yu miss you so much. If you dare to come, I will let you come and go.
It is said that when Shui Lianyue and Hongying left Bai County, they did not take the official road but followed the mountain road to Xuzhou, which was less than a hundred miles away from Huaigu City.
Shui Lianyue stands on the mountainside and looks towards Xuzhou. It only takes one day to reach Xuzhou [
The mountain road is rugged and the ground is much harder than in summer. Even though Shui Lianyue and Hongying were wearing cotton boots, their feet were still a bit numb.
"The world of mortals and the purple world have come and gone. How many melancholy have turned into light resentment. How much desolation has turned into flower graves. How many partings have turned into clear tears. How many waiting have turned into lovesickness." Suddenly a burst of singing floated in the mountains. The sound was gentle but with a strong feeling. melancholy
Shui Lianyue and Hongying looked in the direction of the singing and saw a winding stream not far from the mountainside. The stream was frozen, but the ice on the shore was broken by someone.
Sitting on the shore was a woman in her thirties, completely ignoring the cold winter and soaking her hands in the cold stream to wash her clothes.
The desolate song sounded again, and the same lyrics were sung over and over again with the same melancholy.
At this moment, a woman ran anxiously out of the woods. When she saw the scene on the shore, she hurriedly ran over and pulled out the woman's hand that was soaked in the cold stream.
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing? Don't you want these hands of yours?" The woman put Sister-in-law's hands into her arms desperately to keep her warm.
Sister-in-law smiled bitterly but stopped the woman's behavior, "Why are you doing this? Let go, I'm just doing laundry."
"How cold is the water for washing clothes? Are you washing clothes? You are just ruining yourself. Sister-in-law Kuan is already gone. If he has a soul in heaven and sees you ruining yourself like this, can he feel at ease?"
Shui Lianyue looked at the woman on the bank of the stream with excitement, her fingertips trembling uncontrollably. Suddenly she grabbed Hongying's arm and said in surprise: "Hongying, did you see that? That's Qiuye, right? I saw it wrong, right?"
Hongying was equally excited, with tears in her eyes, and kept nodding: "Yes, that's Qiuye, that's her."
The woman on the shore seemed to be aware of the abnormality and turned around to look over, but was stunned because Shui Lianyue and Hongying had disguised themselves as men, but she recognized them at a glance as the young lady and Hongying.
The next moment, she ran towards Shui Lianyue without hesitation. She almost fell down several times. She did not care about Shui Lianyue and Hongying and hugged them tightly for fear that they would disappear in the next second. general
"Miss Hongying" could no longer hold back her tears. God knows what hardships she had to endure before she could see Miss Hongying again. Her tears contained grievances, joy, and everything.
"It's over," Shui Lianyue repeated over and over again, hugging Qiu Ye tightly.
The cold wind blows and the weather freezes. The three women hug each other like this, their eyes blurred by tears, and they are separated for a long time.
There were three thatched huts hidden deep on the mountainside. The lady brought hot water and added charcoal to the stove. When the stove was burning well, she went out, leaving the three women behind to talk about the pain of parting.
