(1/2)
Haven't you doubted him?
Not only did he ask me this sentence now, but I have asked myself countless times these days, so when I heard this question, I was not unfamiliar with it at all, and I was not even moved at all.
I didn't say anything or refute, I just looked at him and shook my head calmly.
His tone became slightly heavier: "You, then believe him?"
I looked at him and nodded.
In my life, I have experienced too many impermanence in the world, and there are too many vicissitudes of life in this world, but there are always some things that will not change. It is precisely because of the existence of these things that make people willing to live well in such a ruthless and indifferent world.
The integrity and kindness of human nature are one of them.
so--
"I believe him!"
Pei Yuanxiu's eyes became a little deeper. At this moment, all emotions were hidden in his deep eyes. The only thing that could be vaguely distinguished was his prudence and worry. He looked at me and hesitated: "If Pei Yuanhao wants to take you-"
“No.”
I also knew what he was worried about, so I immediately shook my head and said, "He won't."
“…”
Pei Yuanxiu glanced at me and said nothing.
But I know, in fact, he also understands that Pei Yuanhao will no longer do anything that changes the relationship between the two sides at this time.
not to mention--
I looked back at my daughter, and Miaoyan was now sick.
I continued, "And, I have another purpose in this trip."
"What purpose?"
"The Collection of Magical Effects."
He was slightly stunned: ""The Collection of Magical Effects"? Didn't you remember it just now?"
When I mentioned this, I seemed a little depressed, but I immediately said: "I can't remember it, but I copied this book in the palace a few years ago. Although the Jixian Palace was burned, I still want to ask. If there is such a one-in-a-million chance, if there is a little debris left, Miaoyan can be saved!"
Thinking of this, I looked at Mu Nai Wuyan and couldn't help but gritted my teeth: "As long as there is such a one-in-a-million chance, I will definitely not give up!"
This time, Pei Yuanxiu didn't speak anymore, but just looked at me silently for a long time.
Finally, he nodded softly: "I understand."
“…”
"I'll have someone send you across the river."
After hearing what he said, I relaxed a little and said softly: "Thank you, Yuan Xiu."
"..." He looked at me and did not speak immediately, but raised his hand gently, and once again stroked my bloody lips with his rough fingertips, and then gently stroked my cheek.
He said, "He is the best, as you said."
“…”
"This time, I'll wait for you to come back."
As he said this, he looked into my eyes and seemed a little focused: "You will still be back, right?"
I reached out to cover his hand and nodded gently: "Yes."

He did what he said and quickly ordered me to prepare for my crossing the river.
I just vomited blood. When Su Su came in, she was shocked to see me. She advised me to take good care of my health first and not to get tired of it. But this time is no longer the time for me to take good care of myself. Liu Qinghan betrayed the dead and had no time to delay me anymore. So I explained to her clearly, took good care of Miaoyan in the inner courtyard, and gave some instructions to Cao Hu and the others, and then walked out.
Just as I walked out of the inner courtyard and was walking through the garden, I saw some servants and maids walking around busyly, and their direction was the residence of the Han sisters.
I subconsciously stopped and looked over there.
The two servants who came from behind me who had sent me out of the mansion saw me stop and asked carefully: "Madam, do you have anything to give me?"
"..." I thought about it and asked, "Is there anything wrong with Miss Han and the others?"
The two of them looked at each other and looked at me again, but they were both hesitant and did not answer immediately.
At this time, I also reacted, and suddenly understood as they looked silent.
It seems that I have thought of some things too simple.
After all, the Han family has been in Jinling, or in Jiangnan for several generations. The so-called strong dragons cannot defeat local snakes, and even Pei Yuanhao dared not act easily. Although Pei Yuanxiu also inherited the power of Yao Lao, if he really wants to talk about his master, the owner of Jinling is still the Han family of Jiangxia Wang.
In this mansion, their will still not be able to resist.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but smile, listened to the gradually noisy sound coming from over there, and said nothing, turned around and left.
I took a carriage to the dock, changed the boat, and soon I passed through the mist and saw the dock in Yangzhou.
Since the eldest princess was assassinated on the night of her wedding, the control on the river has become stricter. From afar, several merchant ships were docked on the shore, waiting for inspection before they could get ashore. The guards on the pier were also tightly guarded, with three steps and five steps to control this pass.
As soon as our ship was docked, it was about to be inspected. The official in charge of the survey came forward and saw it immediately shocked: "Madam?"
I was also stunned. I didn't expect to be recognized so soon. After all, I was not familiar with some of the newly appointed officials in Yangzhou Prefecture. But then I thought that Pei Yuanzhen had made a fuss that night on her wedding. Even if I wanted to not be familiar with others, I saluted the official: "Sir."
But he was even more frightened than me and hurried over and said, "My wife came to Yangzhou today for-"
"I'm sorry, I want to ask to see His Majesty the Emperor."
“…”
The official gasped.
But, it is impossible to say whether he is angry or happy, or any other emotion. He just looked at me with a complicated expression, and then nodded: "The official understands."
After saying that, he waved to the person behind him: "Go to the prefecture to report immediately, and the wife asked to see the emperor. Also, prepare a carriage for the wife and drive the road all the way."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting contents later! After saying that, he saluted me again: "Madam, I'll forgive you for being in official duties and I'll be less with you."
I smiled and said, "You are kind."
Although my expression was always faint, I couldn't help but be surprised to see him arrange everything almost quickly. This is not something he can explain to me.
Obviously, he had known that I was coming.
Or, in Yangzhou, the emperor had already known that I would cross the river to find him, so I had already arranged everything.
So, I also followed the good deeds and took a few guards who crossed the river with me to their carriages. It was indeed unblocked to travel along the way. However, when I passed by the most prosperous streets in Yangzhou, I could hear the noise that many people secretly discussed privately.
I subconsciously slowed down the coachman.
When I gently lifted up the curtains, I saw a wall posted on the street with the imperial list posted. A large group of ordinary people were gathering there, discussing the content on the imperial list.
"The eldest princess was actually killed by the prince consort? What is this? "
"It's nonsense!"
"Yes, Lord Liu is so wise and loves the people as much as his son. I don't believe he is the murderer."
"I don't believe it either. How could the prince-consort kill his newlywed wife?"
"I don't know which stupid official was the one who tried the case, so I tried it like this."
"Shh, whisper, you're dead!"
"What?"
"The case is to be tried-"
"Ah?!Ouch!"
I leaned against the window and listened quietly to the people's comments, but the wrinkles between my eyebrows never loosened.
Although public opinion is very beneficial to Liu Qinghan now, it is still unknown how much public opinion can play a role in this case. Pei Yuanhao is not an impulsive person. Since he has made a judgment, he must have considered many issues, including public opinion, so he decided like this.
but--
I turned around and looked at the worried people outside the window looking at the emperor's list.
I hope that the things Liu Qinghan did in Yangzhou will not be in vain.
I hope his years have not been in vain!

The carriage drove forward again, and after a long journey, it finally stopped in front of the state capital.
There was already someone waiting here. As soon as I got out of the car, someone came up to help me. When I got off the car, I just stopped and saw a familiar figure coming forward and said to me with a smile: "Sir, you are here."
“…”
When I looked at the person in front of me, I was stunned for a moment.
It’s not that I don’t know each other, nor that I can’t recognize it, but that I haven’t seen each other for too long, which makes me feel a little dazed.
After a while, I said, "Little Fuzi?"
"Yes, it's Xiao Fuzi!"
