“Why don’t you go to the capital?” He had always been wanting to ask but didn’t ask.
At this time, there were only the two of them in the carriage, so he didn’t hold back anymore.
Bai Zhi: “What are you going to do in the capital?”
Gu Boyang: “Isn’t your fiancé in the capital? Although I heard some rumors from Master Wu, they are only rumors after all. What happened, we still need to listen to him personally.”
Bai Zhi: “There will always be a chance, but now I want to see my relatives more.”
Gu Boyang looked at her furrowed brows, and finally swallowed the rest of the words and closed his mouth.
From Jiangbei to Qiyun Mountain, it will take seven days if you take the water route to the land route.
But if you only travel by land, it will take ten days.
Bai Zhi was fed up with the boat, she felt dizzy as soon as she saw the boat. She would rather take the carriage for three more days than take the boat for another day.
Ten days later, Qi Yunshan.
“This is Qi Yunshan?” Gu Boyang asked while standing beside the carriage, looking at the city gate sign in front of him.
Bai Zhi also got down from the carriage and stood beside Gu Boyang. She also raised her head and her eyes fell on the three characters of Qi Yunshan, “This is the town, Qi yunshan is outside, let’s go directly to Qiyunshan without entering the town. ”
The two drank a bowl of herbal tea in the tea shed outside the town and fed the horse some water before setting off again.
Half an hour later, the carriage went up to Qiyun Mountain. As soon as they reached the mountainside, they were stopped by two guards in black suits.
This kind of attire, Bai Zhi was too familiar, it was the Jingwei soldiers who were hidden in this mountain by the grandfather.
“Who are you? What are you doing here?”
Two tall Jingwei soldiers stood in front of the carriage, staring coldly at the driver of the carriage.
Gu Boyang was about to go out, when Bai Zhi pulled him, “I’ll go.”
Bai Zhi got out of the carriage, stood on the frame, looked down at the two Jingwei, and said softly: “I am Bai Zhi, are my grandfather and two mothers on the mountain?”
The two Jingwei soldiers were stunned for a moment. They had heard the name Bai Zhi countless times. She was Master Dongfang Mus’s most beloved granddaughter, but didn’t she already die three years ago? There was still her tablet on the mountain.
Seeing the two Jingwei soldiers freeze, Bai Zhi said again: “I’m not dead, I’m back. These two elder brothers, are my grandfather and two mothers on the mountain?” She asked repeatedly.
Only then did the two Jinwei soldiers return to their senses, and hurriedly said, “Yes, yes, come with us.”
The two of them winked at each other, one took a step forward, and ran up the mountain with all his strength, wanting to report to their master, while the other led the carriage up the hill.
Dongfang Mu was sitting in front of Dongfang Wan’s bed, holding a medicine bowl in his hand, slowly persuading her to drink the medicine.
Dongfang Wan just shook her head and refused to say a word. Her face was haggard, and there was no trace of her former face.
She was only a young woman in her thirties, but at this time, she looks like an old woman in her forties and fifties.
Three years of mental torture made her age prematurely.
Dongfang Mu’s hair was also half white, and his originally upright body was also in decline.
“Wan’er, if you keep going like this, do you want the white-haired daddy to send the black-haired man?” Dongfang Mu’s eyes filled with tears: “Wan’er, in this world, we are the only ones, father and daughter. We are dependent on each other, do you want to leave your father alone?”
Dongfang Wan’s eyes were also red, but no tears fell.
In the past three years, she has cried many times, and her tears have long since dried up.
Her miserable child will never come back.
If she knew that their parting that day will be a goodbye, she would never let her leave without saying anything.
