The person who came was Yan Li.
Yan Li was dressed in black, with a black cloak covering his body. I don't know if it was to hide people's eyes or what. Tonight, he seemed to blend in with the dark night. Lifting the cloak behind him, like a young eagle about to rise.
Yan Chi looked at Yan Li who was following, his eyes narrowed slightly.
"Brother Seven—" Yan Li approached the horse, glanced at the carriage and the other black-clothed knights, with a look of worry in his eyes, and pursed his lips, Yan Li still said, "Brother Seven is going to Shuo West? Is it never coming back?"
Yan Chi immediately took a step forward, and when he spoke, his voice was low, "Why are you here?"
Yan Li smiled wryly when he heard the words, "Seventh brother came to the door and only saw his mother and concubine. As soon as Seventh brother left, mother and concubine entered the palace. I knew something must have happened."
Yan Chi looked at Yan Li deeply, Yan Li saw that his gaze was like this but unconsciously shifted his gaze, Yan Chi frowned, a faint light flashed in the darkness of his eyes, and then said, "Something happened, Your Majesty If I don't go to Prince Rui's Palace, I have no choice but to make a bad move."
Yan Li nodded, with a bit of pain in his eyes, "I... I guessed it, Brother Seven is leaving, I have to see Brother Seven off, I'll say goodbye today, and I don't know when I will see you in the future."
Yan Chi sighed, "I have already explained to the princess, you and the princess must take care of you after today, the emperor's grandmother is not in good health, you should be filial."
The emotions in Yan Li's eyes were mixed, and he was full of apology in his reluctance, "I know, I know, I'm only worried that Seventh Brother's trip may not go well, the bitter cold place in Shuoxi..." Yan Li glanced at the carriage, "You guys It must be very hard.”
When Qin Wan heard Yan Li's voice in the carriage, he couldn't help but lift the curtains. When Yan Li saw Qin Wan, he pulled the corners of his lips forcefully, and said, "I can't help Seventh Brother, I'm just afraid of getting off." I don’t know how many years it has been since I saw Brother Seven again, so I rushed over here.”
Yan Chi pursed his lips, "Although I left the capital, I was regarded as rebellious in the eyes of the emperor, but the brotherhood between you and me will remain unchanged, and there will be a time to see you again."
Yan Li nodded heavily, the corners of his eyes were slightly red and said, "Yes, we will meet again someday."
Yan Li subconsciously turned his head to look at the direction of the city gate, as if he was afraid that the forbidden army would be chased inside, and said anxiously, "It's good to see Brother Seven, let's go, Brother Seven."
Yan Chi was running out of time, and the words had come to an end, and he didn't delay any longer. Yan Li looked at the carriage again, looked at Qin Wan and said, "Take care."
Qin Wan's heart was full of sadness. At this point, even if Yan Li didn't know the inside story, he must have noticed something strange, but under such circumstances, how could he say anything
Qin Wan smiled, "Eighth Brother, take care too."
This "eighth brother" made Yan Li smile, he cupped his fists, "Seventh Brother, Seventh Sister-in-law, have a good journey."
With a wave of Yan Chi's hand, General Mu led the knights in black to the south. Yan Li stood still, and the carriages of Yan Chi and Qin Wan also moved slowly. After walking about ten feet, Yan Chi looked back , I saw Yan Li still standing motionless in the wind and snow. He had gone through countless calamities in Shuoxi and the pain of losing his father. Sad and suffocated.
Withdrawing his gaze, Yan Chi whipped his whip, and the horse that sat down immediately started galloping. The wind and snow were so strong that the horseshoe ruts on the official road were quickly covered up, and it was as if no one had walked by. Under the gate, he turned his horse and returned to the city, feeling as if his whole body was frozen with cold. The soldiers who opened the gate looked silent. Yan Li glanced at the soldiers under the gate, raised his whip and headed towards the gate of the palace. .
At this moment, the entrance of the palace was still in chaos, Yan Li stood alone outside the palace gate, his gaze fell lightly on the ground of the palace gate.
After waiting for almost an hour, Yan Li saw the old mother holding an umbrella to escort Prince Gong and Concubine Fu out.
Yan Li dismounted from his horse and went forward, but only saw Fu's extremely dull eyes, and his heart trembled when he saw it immediately, "Mother Concubine..."
Princess Gong stopped, looked back at the high gate of the palace, smiled dully, and asked, "Are you leaving?"
Yan Li nodded, and grasped Princess Gong's hand. After holding it, he realized that Princess Gong's hands were cold and trembling slightly. He was a little worried, but Princess Gong leaned most of her body on him On her body, she walked towards the carriage step by step, her legs seemed to be a little weak, and the corners of Yan Li's lips moved a little, but the words were swallowed every time they reached her mouth, "Mother Concubine, you enter the palace..."
Helping Princess Gong into the carriage, Yan Li couldn't hold back.
Princess Gong stood at the door of the car, and said after a while, "It's all about old grievances, the matters of the previous generation have nothing to do with the younger generation."
Yan Li's complexion changed slightly, Princess Gong entered the car door shortly, the old mother followed and closed the car door.
Yan Li was silent for a while before getting on the horse again. As soon as the whip fell, one person, one horse, and one carriage walked towards Prince Gong's mansion.
The wind and snow were too heavy, but a thick layer had accumulated on the royal road in just one night, and the sky seemed to be getting darker, and it was less than an hour before dawn.
When the carriage stopped in front of the gate of the palace, Princess Gong had recovered her normal expression, and when she entered the gate, Princess Gong suddenly stopped and told Yan Li behind, "Close the door, don't leave the mansion until the Chinese New Year. "
Yan Li stood where she was, and Princess Gong walked towards the small courtyard of the Buddha Hall without looking back.
