Sitting on the horse, listening to the sound of horse hooves, I felt the carriage driving away from the shrine, leaving the imperial tomb, leaving the flat roads and beginning to embark on the rugged and undulating roads, I was still a little overwhelmed.

Why, suddenly things have developed to this point?

All of us really followed Pei Yuanhao.

They were obviously in the imperial tomb before, and were still offering sacrifices. They were still watching Nangong Lizhu and Yao Lao Lao's father and daughter reunite. However, when Pei Yuanhao walked down from the altar and said with a clean "leave", everyone really followed him, as if they were born to follow him.

"Why……"

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but reach out to cover my forehead.

Qinghan, who was standing beside him, turned to look at me: "What's wrong? Is there a headache?"

“Some.”

"Do you feel uncomfortable somewhere? Do you want to let Lao Yao come and have a look?"

"Forget it," I shook my head with a wry smile: "The father and daughter are now in the carriage in front of me. They have not seen each other for decades, so I have to give them some time."

"So, too."

I looked up at him and couldn't help but want to blame him. If it weren't for that time, he and Pei Ningyuan would have followed Pei Yuanhao, I wouldn't have followed him stupidly, and things would not have been like this until now, which made me feel a little confused.

But what's the point of blaming him now?

Although I know how much he cares about me, I really don’t have the confidence to be “selected” with my affairs in front of him along with Pei Yuanhao’s affairs.

Originally, when Nangong Lizhu appeared, I was still ecstatic. His poison could finally be solved, but now, everyone followed Pei Yuanhao on the way, even worse than escorting the coffin before. When escorting the coffin of the Concubine, although we didn’t know where the imperial tomb was, at least we all knew that the destination was the imperial tomb; now--now, who knows where Pei Yuanhao tracked Xie Fenghui?

I lifted the curtain and looked out. The blood-red sunset was ahead, dyeing the entire earth red.

We are still walking northwest.

If you continue like this, you will really be out of Yumen Pass.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh again and put the curtain down.

Hearing me sighed again, Qinghan became even more worried. He subconsciously moved towards me, but when he saw Miaoyan sitting beside me, he stopped again, pointed to his temple, and said, "It will be better if you rub both sides."

Miaoyan looked up at him, then looked at me again, then knelt behind me and said, "Mom, Miaoyan will rub you."

I looked at her in a little surprised and immediately smiled: "Okay."

Her little hands gently rubbed my temples on both sides of my temples, which really relieved my headache. Qinghan sat aside, watching us like this, and felt a little relieved, and a smile appeared on her face.

Before, I didn't want Miaoyan to follow us on the road, but she had to persevere. She climbed onto Qinghan's carriage and I and sat still. I had no choice but to take her with me. Along the way, I was worried that the three of us would make this girl have bad thoughts again in such a small space. But I thought it was my villain's heart. She had been quiet. Although she didn't talk to Qinghan much, she did not embarrass us.

Now, my headache has been relieved by her gentle kneading.

After all, she is still a kiss on her daughter, as caring as a little cotton jacket.

Qinghan looked at her, and a gentle smile appeared on her face. She slowly turned her head over, lifted the curtain on the other side and looked outside.

The sun is sinking very quickly at a speed we can see.

The carriage was still a little hot, but the wind blowing in from the window could not wait to exude a cool feeling. After staying here for these days, I had long known that the weather in this place was extremely hot during the day and extremely cold at night. Everyone was wearing more grand clothes, and it seemed that they could resist it.

After a while, the sky outside had obviously started to darken, and the carriage was still driving forward.

I looked at Qinghan blankly outside, as if I was concentrating on thinking about something, and then asked, "What are you thinking about?"

He did not answer immediately, but thought quietly for a long time before saying, "What is the purpose of Xie Feng being arrested and escaping this time?"

I thought about it and said, "Maybe it is his purpose for returning to the Central Plains this time."

He was slightly shocked and turned to look at me.

I said, "His ancestors have already gone to the East Chaga tribe and have been living in foreign tribes for so many years. This time I returned to the Central Plains from the East Chaga tribe. I don't believe it is just to help others compete for hegemony."

Qinghan smiled bitterly: "This is already a big reason."

"If it were the past, I would have believed it."

"What about now?"

"Now," I said, "Yu Wenying has already appeared here. I think things may not be as simple as we see in front of us."

Qinghan said: "You said before that the Yuwen family and their Xie family seemed to have some quarrels."

"Yes, it has something to do with a star chart, to be precise, it has something to do with the bets they made."

"A star sign, what kind of bet would it be?"

"It's not going to be some shredded money with astrology as a gambling game."

"It seems that if you want to know the truth, you need to find an opportunity to ask Yu Wenying."

"Do you think he can say it?"

Qinghan looked up at me and said nothing.

The conversation stopped, and I realized that at some point, the two little hands that were originally kneading my temples on both sides of me also stopped. When I looked back, Miaoyan was lowering her head, as if she was also thinking about something, and asked, "Miaoyan, what are you thinking about?"

She heard my voice and looked up at me: "Ah, mom, I remembered what Dad Hu said - there is a ghost story here."

“…”

"It's going to be dark outside, we won't meet ghosts, are we?"

“…”

We are still worried about those big things, but this girl is only worried about whether she will run into a ghost. If it is really just a ghost, it is the biggest fear that people face, then it will be really happy.

I smiled and comforted her: "Didn't you tell me? You don't have to be afraid of following your father, he is fierce."

"oh……"

Even though I said this, I couldn't comfort her. I felt that she was still a little nervous, and our carriage stopped after driving for more than half an hour.

When I lifted the curtain and walked out, it was already pitch black around me.
