The bamboo forest in front of me is lush and surrounded by snow, which makes the bamboo leaves look green and green. It is clearly in the middle of winter, but it gives people the illusion that spring is coming. And at the other end of the bamboo forest, I vaguely see an exquisite eaves protruding out.
This is the restaurant that Pei Yuanhao brought us to in order to welcome Fu Badai and his apprentice!
He actually got here.
I know that Pei Yuanhao built this temple specifically to welcome Fu Badai, but he didn't have much time to travel outside, so it has been idle. In this situation in the capital, I'm afraid that even the guards are gone.
I don't know, what it looks like now?
At this moment, a pioneer of the road exploration came to the front. Xie Feng rode his horse over and listened to him report the situation ahead. However, because it was too far away, I couldn't hear clearly. So I saw Xie Feng nodding and asked a few more questions, as if he was asking about the situation in this place. After a while, he rode his horse back and walked to the carriage behind us.
Han Zitong's voice came: "Mr. Xie, why did you stop?"
"The situation ahead is the same as we had expected before."
"Then are we going?"
"This place is about two hours away from the capital, so we don't have to move forward anymore. I heard that this is an emperor's temple, but there are no people inside. Why not just take a rest here for a night, tomorrow-"
He didn't say it, of course, because he was cautious and unwilling to say everything.
But when I heard his tone, my heart kept sinking.
The vanguard soldier just came back to report the message. Although I didn't hear a word about it, judging from Xie Feng's reaction and his arrangement just now, the war must have been ignited in the capital, and the situation of the war did not make them feel tricky, so he arranged for a night to rest here so peacefully.
And he said tomorrow-
Could it be that tomorrow, they can take over the capital?
When I thought of this, I felt that the blood in my body was about to freeze. My hands lying on the window frame were so cold that they were no longer conscious. After getting the feedback from Han Zitong, Xie Feng turned his head and was about to give an order, but he saw me at the corner of his eyes.
A trace of caution flashed in his eyes, and then waved: "Go to the front hall and stay for one night."
Our team immediately moved forward, and soon arrived outside the tent. The iron lock on the gate had been split open by them. When they pushed open the door, they saw that it was empty inside. The sound of the gate opening spread far away with the wind. The snow on the ground was very thick, with only a few traces of birds staying. In the grooves under the eaves on both sides, the spring water had already condensed into ice. There was no longer the clear sound of the gurgling mountain springs. The elegant feeling was replaced by a dead silence.
Xie Feng immediately waved his hand: "Go and clean up."
A group of people rushed in immediately.
This place was unattended, which saved them some trouble. In just half an hour, they patroled the inside and after confirming that it was safe, they cleaned up a few rooms. I saw Han Zitong and the others escorting Pei Yuanxiu in first.
However, the figure swayed, and I didn't see clearly whether he was awake or unconscious.
After a while, someone came to our carriage.
"Madam, Miss Yan, the room is ready, please come in."
Han Ruoshi went down with anger. I also got out of the car with Hua Zhu's arm. As soon as I stood firm, I looked up and looked forward.
I have been here once, and I know very well which road is heading to the capital.
As long as I follow that road, I can see Miaoyan.
There are many people I care about.
Thinking of this, my steps were almost involuntarily pulled over, but as soon as I took two steps, a group of people rushed over to stop me. I suddenly trembled, and Hua Zhu had already walked to me, and half of her body stopped me.
She said: "Miss Yan, you went wrong."
“…”
"We should go in here."
“…”
Although I had known this would be the ending, the helpless feeling still made me very painful. I felt my heart was like a knife. I looked forward again, and could only grit my teeth and turn my head to walk in with Hua Zhu.

Everything about this restaurant has long been unfamiliar. It is probably because there has been no one here for too long and there is no popularity. As soon as I walked in, I felt a little colder than in the snow. Fortunately, the guards were moving faster. Not only did they clean up the room, but they immediately set fire to ignite the stove. Han Ruoshi and I were arranged to two rooms close to the west wing.
When I opened the door, the cold air that had not yet disappeared in the room came.
I shivered for a moment, turned around and looked at Hua Zhu: "Where are Pei Yuanxiu and Miss Zitong, and your master?"
Hua Zhu glanced out: "It seems to be in the east wing."
I stopped talking and slowly walked to the bed and sat down.
If I remember correctly, the last time I came here with Pei Yuanhao and welcomed Fu Badai, we all lived in the east wing, while Fu Badai and Liu Qinghan were arranged in the west wing.
This room...
I looked up and looked at this simple and elegant but particularly cold room, and suddenly I felt a blurry feeling of being confused and not knowing where I was.
Did he live in this room?
I was a little confused and reached out to gently support the edge of the bed below.
I have been separated for so long and have not been sent back at all. Can Lao Yao have a good medical skills and give him a glimmer of hope? These questions are just like the safety of Miaoyan. These days have been suffering me constantly.
I don’t know how long I have been sitting in this quiet room. It was dark outside and the cold air slowly warmed up, but the surroundings were always quiet. Apart from the footsteps of the patrol team passing by, there was also the rustling sound of the wind blowing through the bamboo forest outside, and there was nothing else.
I myself know that even if the capital collapses so far, there will be no sound coming here.
But the more this happens, the more I suffer.
How is Miaoyan now?
I knew that I was so close to her. If I were fast horses, I would be able to see her in less than two hours, but I could do nothing. I don’t know what she was experiencing now.
Pei Yuanhao, will he protect her?
Pei Yuanhao, you must protect her!
At this moment, the door was pushed open.
As soon as I raised my eyes, I saw Han Zitong standing outside, her face as gloomy as the weather. I stood up from the bed and subconsciously said, "What's the matter?"
Chapter completed!
