Chapter 123 - Leaving
Chapter 123 - Leaving
"Xue'er, you look really good today." Feng Shijiu lowered his head slightly, his cheeks slightly flushed.
Huanxue's face turned red, and deep dimples appeared at the corners of her mouth. She raised her hands slightly and gestured, "Jiujiu, you look beautiful today too!"
"Xue'er, Jiujiu may have to leave the capital." As soon as the words fell, Huanxue's little face lost color in an instant, but she still had a smile on her face, which was even more heartbreaking than crying.
Feng Shijiu quickly brought the rose behind him to Huanxue and said firmly: "Xue'er, if you are willing to marry Jiujiu in the future, accept this flower and Jiujiu will come back to find you."
Just when Feng Shijiu was about to despair, that fair little hand slowly took the flower and gestured shyly, "Xue'er is waiting for Jiujiu in the capital. You have to come to find Xue'er quickly."
"Jiujiu will!" After saying that, he waved goodbye reluctantly and left.
Huanxue looked at Feng Shimei's back, waving and calling his name, but it was all silent. Several tear marks covered her fair face. Why couldn't she speak? Why was she born a mute?
"Hey! Jiujiu, are you back after cheating the little girl?" Song Yuntian said sourly, his eyes full of teasing.
"Uncle, you must have never loved someone, please don't say that to Jiujiu." After saying this, he climbed onto the carriage in a deep voice, found a comfortable position and sat down quietly, then lifted the curtain covering the window of the carriage and looked out with reluctance.
"Hahaha..." Song Yunshi finally couldn't help laughing out loud. She knew without guessing that Yuntian must have suffered a great blow.
Song Yuntian showed a smile that was uglier than crying, then touched his nose angrily, turned around and jumped into the carriage and sat side by side with Qingying on the crossbar outside the carriage, and said loudly: "Everyone sit down, we are going to set off."
Feng Shijiu looked at the scenery and people that were moving backwards, his heart full of longing for a new life and reluctance to leave the old life. However, he never imagined that when he returned to this land again, everything would be so different.
On the official road, a huge team was moving forward slowly. The most eye-catching thing was the gorgeous carriage with a brocade cover pulled by four tall horses side by side. When they were in the territory of Dongchu, the people knew that the person in the carriage was Princess Chaoning who was getting married, but after leaving Dongchu, the curious and envious eyes from all around never stopped.
In the carriage, Gu Qinghong was wearing a fiery wedding dress. Her long hair, as smooth as clouds and waterfalls, was combed into a complicated double-knife bun. A golden hairpin with a carved phoenix was inserted diagonally into the bun, making her look more mature and beautiful. Compared with her appearance in men's clothing, she was less cold and more charming, which made Mu Ziyan beside her stare at her in a daze.
"Master Mu, have you seen enough?" A voice that could not be distinguished between joy and anger sounded.
"I am sorry for the offense, please forgive me, Princess!" Mu Ziyan quickly avoided her gaze and lowered his head.
Gu Qinghong paid no attention to Mu Ziyan and continued to look down at the military book in his hand. However, the scene on the battlefield that year kept appearing in his mind. He clearly let her go, but she turned her kindness into enmity and slashed at him with her sword, leaving him with a disfigured face for the rest of his life. If he was not stupid, he should still hate her.
"Lord Mu, if the woman you have always liked betrayed you and destroyed your appearance in front of thousands of people on the battlefield, would you forgive that woman?" Gu Qinghong looked at Mu Ziyan with a gleam in his eyes.
Hearing her say this, Mu Ziyan felt a pain in his heart, and there was a hint of hatred in his eyes when he looked at Gu Qinghong. How could his appearance be ruined like this? He treated you well, how could you be so cruel to hurt him.
Mu Ziyan's expression said it all, how could Gu Qinghong not see it? He smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "If it's really unforgivable, then let me pay it back with my whole life."
Mu Ziyan glanced at Gu Qinghong with cold eyes, and slowly clenched his slender hands. You, Gu Qinghong, don't need to be responsible for the rest of his life.
