Chapter 213 Princess Returns to the Court

Jiang Xuening didn't expect Xie Wei to be waiting for her.

She walked out of the mansion with the box in her arms, and when she saw the car waiting for her and the sword book standing on the side, she almost had the illusion of going back two years.

Waiting to lift the car curtain and enter, seeing Xie Wei, I became even more dazed.

He was slowly tidying up the pleats on his sleeves when he saw her just looking up and saying, "Let's go."

Her expression was dull, not as if she had been waiting for a long time.

There is a slight weariness hanging at the edge of the eyebrows and eyes, but it is not obvious. This is not because he is not very tired, it is just because he is used to it and even feels indifferent to himself, and others do not feel anything.

Except for the night he sat by her bed, whether it was a real or a dream, Jiang Xuening had hardly seen him again during the war.

The front line advances rapidly, and if the rear cannot keep up, it will become disconnected.

Lv Xian's power comes from his power, and he only manages the words "money and food". He has no official position and cannot be said to have complete vision and authority to handle the affairs behind him properly. Xie Wei naturally needs to take care of everything. It can even be said that the rear of the front line is much busier than the front.

Jiang Xuening gently said "Hello sir" and sat quietly across from Xie Wei.

She still held the box in her hand and didn't let go.

Xie Wei glanced up and said, "After welcoming the princess back this time, your wish has come true. Then leave the border, where are you going?"

Jiang Xuening didn't expect him to be so straightforward, but in the blink of an eye, he realized it was really normal: that night, Lv Xian had heard about it, and it was not surprising that Xie Wei had some understanding of her plans. Besides, he has insight into people's hearts. If he can't even see through her so little care, why should he be a current imperial teacher?

Just

She rested her fingers on the edge of the wooden box and lowered her eyes, saying, "I dare not tell you, sir."

Xie Wei said, "At this point, you're willing to tell the truth again. But if I don't let you go, where can you escape?"

Jiang Xuening fell silent and remained silent.

Xie Wei felt extremely frustrated when he saw her like this. For a moment, he wanted to scold her and clear her mind, no matter what. But she was so scared that after scolding her, she ran to find Zhang Zhe without hesitation.

The carriage left the city and headed towards Yanmen Pass.

When Shen Zhiyi went to make a wedding, it was dusk four times;

Now when they go to greet her and return to court, the morning light is dim.

There was a long silence inside the car.

After a long time, Xie Wei glanced at the box she was holding and remembered the young girl who cried uncontrollably and hugged her knees. He asked, "Shen Zhiyi, how could she be worth everything and go through fire and water for her like this?"

This language is somewhat ironic.

Jiang Xuening felt pricked by these words and looked up at him, with a hint of coldness in her pupils. She only said, "Your Highness is very kind to me."

Her impression of Shen Zhiyi in her past life was not really good.

But in this life, she only painted a cherry blossom powder for her at the Double Ninth Festival banquet in Qingyuan Uncle's Mansion, and said such an obvious flattery, to the extent that she truly treated her with sincerity.

She is her support for studying in the Fengchen Palace.

Although I knew she had a bad temper, I believe that after liking her, I indulged her and blessed her. No matter how others slandered her, Shen Zhiyi never doubted from beginning to end, how she had treated her before, and how she had treated her later.

But such a good person, due to her princess status, has risen and fallen in the treacherous palace, and has to leave her hometown, go to the Tatars to make peace and accept her unpredictable fate

Jiang Xuening cannot forget Shen Zhiyi, who was almost under house arrest two years ago, celebrating her birthday in the Mingfeng Palace. And at midnight, the bowl of longevity noodles quietly brought by the palace people

I only remember crying so badly.

The noodle soup is filled with salty and astringent tears that fall from it. Whether it tastes good or not doesn't leave a deep impression on me.

Jiang Xuening blinked and slowly said, "Your Highness, you can't do it, sir, and I can't do it either."

She said this very seriously.

However, Xie Wei coldly parted the corners of his lips and said, "Being in prison, constrained by others, and being a fish and meat under someone's knife, Xie cannot do such a person."

Jiang Xuening choked and was speechless.

Just don't say it anymore.

As the sky gradually brightened outside, the Yanmen Pass, built at the junction of the two mountains, finally approached.

The sandstorms outside the pass have blown away countless traces of vicissitudes from the rammed earth walls nearby.

Flying banners were flying high above the city gate tower.

Furthermore, the besieged city winds along the mountain terrain, with three large stone walls and more than twenty small stone walls built outside, almost enclosing the entire city into a sturdy fortress.

The interior of the pass is the fertile land of the Central Plains, while the outside of the pass is the wilderness with sandstorms.

Shen Zhiyi still remembers the various scenes she saw when she left the capital all the way.

Phenological changes, from prosperity to desolation.

At that time, as the car passed by Yanmen, she looked back and saw that the gray and yellow city walls were stained with blood in the heavy dusk, with a desolate and magnificent beauty; Looking towards the unknown path ahead, the sun sets and the wind howls in the open wilderness. A winding and blurry road stretches forward, as if it connects to the horizon, with no end in sight.

After two years of hardships, she never imagined that she would come back alive.

My childhood playmate has become the commander in charge of the three armies. Now, he is in front of the chariot, riding on the back of a black hoofed horse, and the bright sky gradually falls on his shoulder.

Shen Zhiyi only felt that something was different from people.

Even filled with desolation, without much joy.

Her bulging abdomen signifies the fact that she is about to become a mother, and it inevitably worries her about the predicament she will soon face.

All of this gradually became clear as the carriage approached the Yanmen Gate.

At this moment, both inside and outside the city, all the soldiers have already lined up, the city walls up and down, the armor is neat, and there may be bloodstains and scars on each face. Whether they are young or young, they all stand towards the direction of the northwest wilderness!

I don't know who saw this long and winding team from afar, and the handsome flag that the team went to, and immediately cried out: "General Yan's handsome flag is General Yan's handsome flag! The princess is back, and her highness Royal Highness Princess is back -"

At that moment, Jiang Xuening trembled all over.

After arriving at the Yanmen Pass, she followed Xie Wei up the high city wall and looked into the distance. However, the rising sun to the east was shining brightly, which inevitably made it difficult for her to open her eyes and see clearly.

It wasn't until the long convoy finally passed through the shining spots in Jiang Xuening's sight that she finally truly saw clearly that it was the car driving in the queue, swaying its curtains

"Your Highness!"

Her heart suddenly beat violently, but she didn't even think about it. She picked up her skirt and turned around like a flapping bird. She ran away from Xie Wei and ran down the steep steps of the city tower towards the bottom.

Xie Wei instinctively reached out and only touched the corner of her clothes.

The brocade sleeved robe was as smooth as the flowing wind, leaving a slight chill at his fingertips.

When I looked up again, the person was already under the city tower.

With a cold wind blowing on her face, Jiang Xuening ran straight from the countless standing soldiers below the city building, as if she couldn't sense it.

People around her couldn't help but look at her with surprised eyes.

But she still passed through the wide open city gate all the way, heading towards the team gradually approaching Yanmen Pass, towards the most special frame in the team, still shouting loudly, "Your Highness..."

Shen Zhiyi's cold and silent heart suddenly trembled.

That voice, with a hint of familiarity, came against the wind.

She stood up and suddenly lifted the hanging car curtain in front of her!

The girl who had just raised her hand and drew a line on her cheek, the girl who relied on her to support her and do whatever she wanted in the Yangzhi Zhai, the girl who pulled her sleeve in the imperial garden and said she wanted to take her to escape, ran out of the city gate tower that had been eroded by the wind and sand for a long time, with a long lost, fiery vitality, entering her sight

She suspected that she was in a dream.

The sudden surge of heat from the bottom of her eyes almost filled her cold heart.

Everything has changed.

That Jiang Xuening has not changed.

The team stopped.

Yan Lin is quiet, but Mo Le Ma.

Jiang Xuening finally arrived at the front of the car. She was already walking quickly, but when she got closer, she looked up and saw Shen Zhiyi standing on the shaft of the car. Wearing her old and beautiful palace attire, she looked a bit too big and swayed in the wind like a piece of paper.

So a sudden sadness hit her.

Her footsteps stopped, and tears flickered in her bright eyes.

However, in the next moment, she bent her lips with a bit of stubbornness.

The wooden box was tightly pressed against my heart.

In the radiance of the sunrise and the fierce wind blowing from the border, Jiang Xuening bent down and half knelt under the carriage shaft, but held up the wooden box high and gazed at the standing princess, smiling brightly: "Your Highness, your homeland, homeland, and capital."

One day, Yan Lin led his big iron hooves to break through the Yan Gate.

Bring this handful of homeland to welcome me——

Returning to my homeland, returning to my capital!

Shen Zhiyi almost forgot that he had made such bold promises and made such a promise with her in order to deceive her into peace of mind

But she didn't treat it as a joke.

The tears that had been in her eyes for a long time finally rolled down when she took the wooden box from her hand and opened it. She bent down and tightly embraced the young companion, but her blocked throat became extremely difficult, unable to make any sound.

The wilderness outside the pass is boundless.

The army inside and outside Yanmen Pass was like a tide, but at this moment, they all bent down and bowed to the beautiful princess on the carriage that they couldn't see clearly. They shouted in unison, "Congratulations to Your Highness!"

The sound merged into a wave and swept into the sky.

Transforming into a torrential wave, it resounds in people's ears.

The sound of the wind hunting, the banners waving in the distance, shining brightly on the vast border.

Xie Ju'an stood tall above the city wall without taking a step.

He was like a towering mountain cliff, unaffected by the joys and sorrows of the human world. He only looked down on the world of separation and separation with a cold and cold expression, and then let out a faint and violent smile.

Shen Zhiyi's gaze crossed the void and unexpectedly landed on the city tower, colliding with his distant gaze.

It was the old gentleman who gave lectures at the Fengchen Hall.

However, at this moment, there was not much warmth and familiarity in her heart that had been lost for a long time. Only a cold chill seeped into her bone marrow, and at the same time, an indescribable great irony and sadness arose.

She grew up in the palace, and over the years, she has also grown in the Tatars. As early as Yan Lin led her army to break through the Tatar King's Court, she had already noticed some abnormalities.

Ask Yan Lin, Yan Lin won't say anything.

Until now, she saw Jiang Xuening at the border who should not have appeared, and Xie Ju'an who should not have appeared

Shen Zhiyi hugged Jiang Xuening tighter, with red eyes and a choked smile: "Silly Ningning."
