Alan's face moved slightly.
I looked at her calmly and said, "Sister Lan, you said before that you did n’t come here in vain, so there is always some reason. You also said that your wonderful people are doing business, and you want money Yes. Who ordered you to come? Or who asked you to come? "
She raised an eyebrow, and the expression on her face became playful: "You ask this, what do you do?"
"I want to know."
"But I don't want to say."
I was choked by her.
But when Alan raised his eyebrows and glanced at me again, his eyes could not tell whether it was goodwill or something else, and turned his head to look outside. At this time, our team has passed the last checkpoint, and the tall boundary markers along the road slowly moved forward as we moved forward.
We are out of Shaanxi.
The road at the foot is still flat, but the sunset can be seen in the distance, as if the end of the earth, the mountains are undulating, the terrain is steep, and the danger of Xichuan is gradually pulling away its veil.
The atmosphere inside the compartment also became a bit rigid.
It seemed that she felt her attitude. After a while, Alan turned her head and looked at me. She didn't calm down, she just said calmly, "There are some things that you shouldn't know before you should know. Otherwise, even if I said it, it would not make much sense to you. "
I would like to ask her-do you know when it is "I should know"?
However, she has already spoken first, and I can't be too aggressive. After all, two days ago, she and Ye Fei rescued us from Nangong Jinhong's hands. This situation is as short as holding a hand.
So they were silent again.
We do not speak, Su Su and Zhao Shuyuan naturally will not say anything, Zhao Shuyuan's fever has subsided, but people are still not sober, and have been sleeping in the corner. A Lan glanced back at her, sneer and said: "In the past, I heard people say that those maidens in the palace are rich and rich, who knows, it really looks like this."
As she said, she gave me a smile with a smile: "Sometimes, it's really unknowing."
I think she meant something. After thinking about it, she asked: "Sister Lan, at that time in Jixiang Village, why didn't you tell me anything and just left."
"Is there anything to tell you?"
"But don't you tell me now?"
"..."
"I don't think you hate me and don't have any prejudice against me, but sometimes I think your attitude is strange, especially at that time, why did you break up with me? I asked myself nothing was wrong what."
She sneered, "Do you still think you did nothing wrong?"
"..."
"If you didn't do anything wrong, why don't you stay in Jinling and be your wife?"
"..."
I hesitated for a moment, and finally came to understand a little: "You-are you because I decided to marry Pei Yuanxiu at that time, so that ’s why I treated me like that?"
"..."
She gave me a cold glance again, without talking, and turned to look out the window.
I was quiet for a while.
Thinking about it again, I just came back. It seems that Alan really has a very bad attitude towards Pei Yuanxiu, especially when I got along with Pei Yuanxiu and even decided to get married, she even complained to me. Therefore, Yue Qingying's death, she had already found out, but left without telling me.
I asked her, "Why?"
"..."
"Why are you so hostile to Pei Yuanxiu from the beginning?"
Alan blinked and turned around to look at me. She had a rare and solemn expression, but when she spoke, her voice was still full of coldness and amusement: "You know, I'm a run river."
I don't know why she suddenly switched to such a topic, but she nodded immediately: "Um."
"I have seen all kinds of evildoers, and I have never been afraid of these people. No matter how vicious they are, and I do n’t blink, I have never been afraid."
"..."
"But that Pei Yuanxiu, he's different."
"What's the difference?"
Although, I also know that he did a lot of things behind me, but he still looks like a handsome nobleman, how could it not be more terrible than the villains on the green forest road.
Alan thought for a moment and said, "He looks like a fairy, but he goes to hell."
"..."
I shuddered.
Fairy, ...
The first time I heard someone put these two words together, and the first time I heard someone use such words to describe him—
Recalling that handsome man, no matter what I experienced with him later, how did I leave his side and leave Jinling decisively, but now I think of it most often when he was in the cabinet, so clean Peace, invincible.
What is it that pushed him step by step to today?
I was silent for a while and said softly, "Is this just the reason?"
Alan raised her eyebrows, and it seemed that my keenness was a bit surprised. She smiled with an angled mouth, and whispered, "For other reasons, think for yourself."
After speaking, he put his arms on the window frame and looked out, as if he had made up his mind to ignore me.
I closed my mouth with interest.
Time goes by day by day, like the journey under our feet, which flows quickly.
After passing the Aoki River, the road became difficult to walk, the carriage could not move forward, we could only ride horses, and even some places could not even ride horses, and could only walk on foot, which was nothing to me and Susu. Alan didn't bother, but with Zhao Shuyuan, she was in trouble.
In order to take care of her along the way, we had some hardships.
Until the sword Pavilion, the road just got a little better.
The official roads built by the imperial court came to an end when they came here. The people from Shaanxi did not gather on a road anymore, but spread apart. The road was not so crowded, just watching the mountain roads disappeared one by one. Walking back, can not help but sigh.
These people are really like duckweeds on the sea. I don't know when they will meet or when they will be separated. If the world can be stabilized, maybe they can be more stable.
However, after entering Sichuan, we were basically relieved. Although the people of Pei Yuanxiu and Nangong Jinhong are powerful, I know that they are unlikely to enter Xichuan, and they are arrogant to do something to me in this place, so everyone Slightly relaxed.
Although the road is well gone, another trouble has come.
We don't know the way well.
Neither the coachman nor Wenhu, the team leader, entered Sichuan, and the rugged roads of Shu Di made it easy to get lost. Although I walked these roads, it was a matter of many years ago, and a team of people went quite hard. .
In the afternoon, it was still early, and it was originally bright, but after a gust of wind, dark clouds gathered over the head and the sky became dark.
Shu land is a humid and rainy place, especially in summer, so sudden rain is very common.
After a while, the heavy rain fell down.
I quickly put on my jacket, but apparently it didn't matter what it was in such a heavy rain. Soon my clothes were soaked, and Susu were even more embarrassed. At this time, we came to a fork in the road and surrounded There is no place to cover the wind and rain.
At this time, Wenhu saw a person standing beside the fork in the front.
The man was also wearing a jacket and couldn't see clearly in the dense rain. He thought it was a scarecrow standing on the side of the road, but he also seemed to see us. He immediately took two steps to the middle of the road and wiped his hands. Face, as if to see us more clearly.
Wen Hu said, "I'll ask for directions."
I nodded and said, "Be careful."
He got off the horse, took the reins and walked over. In the sound of falling rain, he heard him say aloud, "This brother, we want to ask--"
Before he finished speaking, the man suddenly said, "You, but Miss Yan's team?"
"..."
We froze.
This person, know us?
Wen Hu frowned and glanced back at me, probably a few attacks on the way. He immediately became cautious and stepped back: "Who are you?"
"Is it really Miss's team?"
The man looked happy and said in surprise: "The villain has been waiting for you for a long time."
"..."
He looked up again and looked at me. He immediately lifted his feet and came over to me. Wen Hu hurriedly let go of the reins and came over. When he was a few steps away from me, he stopped in front of him: "who are you?"
The man only looked up at me, bowing respectfully and saluting, "Meet the young lady."
I frowned slightly and looked down at him: "You are--"
"Miss, the villain is here to wait for Miss."
"..."
"Miss, the wind is strong and rainy here. If you go down, you will not be able to bear the body. There is a place to shelter from the rain in front. Please come with me!"
After speaking, he didn't wait for us to ask him again. He turned hurriedly and walked forward to the road in the middle of the fork.
Wenhu frowned and looked at me: "Miss Yan, this—"
I raised a brow: "Let's go."
"Miss, don't you worry that he's from there?"
"Xichuan is much safer than Shaanxi, and--"
I glanced at the man and said, "I think I probably know who he sent."
I have already spoken, Wen Hu, they naturally can't say anything, so they all followed up, but they were quite cautious, the team gathered around me, and the one who had opened the road went ahead.
Soon, a small courtyard was seen in front.
In the wilderness, a courtyard.
For us who have been soaked in heavy rain, it must not be a temptation, but this temptation looks slightly weird.
Wen Hu, they probably had their hairs all over their bodies, but I seemed relatively calm, and went directly on horseback. The courtyard wall around was only one person tall, and you could see it by riding a horse. Several servants came out with an umbrella, pulled me, helped me off the horse, and immediately held the umbrella above my head.
Wenhu, they also dismissed the horse cautiously and followed into the courtyard. I took off my coat under the eaves, and when I went in, I felt clean and dry in the lobby. In addition to the smell of cold rain, the air had a smell A touch of incense. As soon as Alan walked in, everyone stretched out and gave a charming sigh.
Wen Hu was more vigilant.
Seeing that the servants were going to help me upstairs to clean and change clothes, he finally couldn't hold back, and took a step forward: "Ms. Yan, here is-"
I smiled: "Don't worry."
"..."
"This is the Yan family's industry."
"what?"
When he turned around and looked at the servants, the man who greeted us came off his jacket and showed him a tag on his waist. It looked like a "face".
"We are here at the orders of the homeowners and come here to meet the young lady."
"..."
"We will be responsible for everything that comes next for the young lady."
Wen Hu froze for a moment, as if he couldn't get back.
In fact, he may still have a little habit. His task was to me from Beijing to Xichuan. When he got here and met the people of the Yan family, his task was completed.
No wonder some of them don't return.
I explained a little bit, and they went to rest and clean each other. Alan and Zhao Shuyuan also had someone to take care of them. Su Su and another servant took me upstairs, took a hot bath, expelled the cold, and waited for me to change. When I came downstairs in clean clothes, a few tables in the lobby were already full of food.
The food on the other tables is simple and clean, and only the food on my table, which is flourishing, is all famous dishes of Shuland.
It costs a lot of snacks.
After all, it ’s my own place. I greeted Wenhu to take their seats, and then sat down with Alan and Zhao Shuyuan at the table, preparing to raise chopsticks to eat, and when I heard the rain outside the door, the sound of wailing rain seemed to be The sound of footsteps from some people, as well as the sound of horseshoes, stopped outside the courtyard.
Several servants immediately pushed the door and went out.
None of the people in the lobby moved their chopsticks, all of them were holding their breath subconsciously listening to the sounds outside.
After a while, the man who greeted us came over and opened the front door and looked out for a while.
I asked, "What's going on outside?"
"Some people came and said they want to come in." He frowned. "If you don't have long eyes, don't look at who this place is, do you want to come in?"
"..."
Indeed, in Xichuan, there should not be such a person who "doesn't have long eyes".
I was a little more puzzled in my heart, and my ears were raised, trying to listen to the sound of those people outside in the sound of the rain.
Then I heard a somewhat familiar voice.
I was thinking about the master of this voice, and a servant rushed in again outside, saluting me respectfully, and then said, "Miss, outsider, they said they would see you."
If you want to see me, it's for me.
I didn't expect someone from Yan Qingchen to pick me up today. There was another passerby, especially the familiar voice just now, which suddenly reminded me of something. I immediately lowered my chopsticks and stood up. The people next to me stunned: "Miss, what do you do?"
I walked over without saying a word and opened the door.
In the heavy rain, there was a group of people holding the horse standing outside the courtyard, talking to the servants, and hearing the sound of the door opening, they all turned to look at me.
One of the familiar faces met my gaze.
