After my death, my ex-husband ruled the world

Wild geese lined up across the sky, patches of burning clouds faded in the sky, and the night slowly fell.

The nights in early autumn are a bit cooler and more lonely than in the past.

The stones are dim, the shadows of the trees are whirling, a layer of light mist fills the mountainside, unknown birds are chirping, and the sound of wolves howling in the distance is heard. The night is as thick as ink.

Traveling at night is dangerous. Not only people need rest, but horses also need rest.

Therefore, we travel during the day and rest at night.

Xia Que took out the fire stick and lit the fire.

Smoke curls up and sways into the air, disappearing with the wind.

She glanced at the man sitting aside and didn't say anything to him. She took out the steamed buns from her bag and ate them. She didn't see him eating anything until she finished.

"Why don't you eat dinner?"

Xia Que still asked.

Wei Fu's eyes were slightly lowered, and his thin lips with a very light color said silently: "We are walking in a hurry, so we didn't prepare any dry food. We will buy some at the next town tomorrow."

"Oh, okay." Xia Que nodded and didn't plan to care about him.

At this time, the man's stomach growled with hunger, which could be clearly heard in the silent night.

The expressions of both of them are:...

Xia Que pretended not to hear, put the baggage aside, stood up, and looked not far away.

If you remember correctly, there is a stream there, so you can go and wash yourself.

"Hey, I'm going to wash up over there. Don't come over and peek, or I'll dig out your eyes. You stay here to guard your things, do you understand?"

Wei Fu frowned. When Princess Zhaoyang was not dead, Governor Pei often made him jump around. He also felt that Governor Pei's mood was not stable enough. Now, he has come into contact with Princess Zhaoyang's maid. Sure enough, what kind of master is there? , what kind of subordinates there are.

He considers himself to be emotionally stable and not an irritable or explosive person.

However, this woman always has a way to make him angry.

During his silence, Xia Que narrowed her eyes and raised her voice a bit: "You're mute? You can't respond to people either. You are as difficult to get along with as your master, and he only has that good-looking face that confuses our princess. Otherwise, based on his life experience, how can he become a prince-in-law? Haha."

Pei Huaian's people can't stand Princess Zhaoyang's people.

On the contrary, Princess Zhaoyang's people also dislike Pei Huaian's people.

Just because the princess forgave Pei Huaian, it doesn't mean that Xia Que doesn't hate him anymore.Yue Gou was Pei Huaian's subordinate. No matter who ordered him to kill the princess, it was the result of Pei Huaian's lax discipline.

It was not Xia Que's sincere intention to go to Nanzhao to inform Yu Lian about Pei Huaian's accident.

However, she knew that the princess loved that man, and if she didn't repay him, the princess would be very sad.

Wei Fu raised his eyes, his whole body exuded cold air, and his tone was mean and cold:
"I know, no one will look at you."

Xia Quecai snorted with satisfaction, took her personal clothes and walked away.

The stream water is slightly cool, but it still brings a chill when it touches the skin.

I don’t want to go back and face that ice man so early.

After washing, it took a long time for a stick of incense to go back.

The fire was burning, and a few ashes were flying in the wind, and then fell less than half a step away from the fire.

The baggage has not been touched.

Xia Que's long hair was loose and gathered to the back of her neck. It was a little wet and she slowly dried it in front of the fire.Wei Fu looked sideways, and saw that her silky black hair was blowing in the wind, her pretty eyes and beautiful nose, and her freshly bathed skin was as tender as a crescent moon under the firelight.

She felt Wei Fu looking at her, raised her head, and met his eyes as deep as the night sky.

I have to say that he is quite handsome, he is kind and courteous, and no one would have guessed that he is as ruthless as his master, except that he is from Dongchang.

Xia Que thought he wanted solid food for her, but was embarrassed to say so. She looked back, reached out to rummage through her bag, took out the oil paper bag, and handed him three steamed buns. "Here, here, after eating, you won't have the strength to go on the road tomorrow. Someone will definitely come to kill us. You have to maintain your strength."

Afraid that he wouldn't want it, she also emphasized the importance of physical strength tomorrow.

Wei Fu looked at the paper bag in front of him and did not reach out to take it. Xia Que thought he was embarrassed to take it, so she stuffed it into his arms and ran back to dry her hair.

Late at night.

The sound of wolves howling in the distance sounded again.

Wei Fu ate the steamed buns slowly, finished all three steamed buns, and leaned against the tree quietly with an expressionless face.

Xia Que was a little frightened, "Did you hear a wolf howling?"

"I heard."

"Are you afraid? What if they attack us when we sleep at night?"

Xia Que was worried about tonight. No matter how strong she was, she was still a woman. It was normal to worry about these things.On the contrary, Wei Fu said like a normal person: "No, I will know when it comes."

He thought for a while and added: "You can sleep peacefully."

His indifferent voice was full of infinite security, which made Xia Que look at him with wide eyes. This man didn't seem that bad after all, and she felt a little more at ease.

A full moon hung on the treetops, and the bright moonlight spread to the earth.

Neither of them felt sleepy.

"Why don't you kill me? If you do it now, I won't be able to beat you."

This sentence was asked by Xia Que. Because Xue Xiuyun died in Jinchunfang, she should be Wei Fu's beloved woman. Wouldn't he kill himself to avenge his beloved woman?
Under the firelight, the man's expression remained unchanged as he said, "That's not your fault."

Xia Que said: "You can do it if you want."

After finishing speaking, the two fell into silence, and the only sound lingering in their ears was the howl of the wolf.

After a long time, she asked again: "Don't you hate me very much? Why did you promise Pei Huaian to protect me when I went to Nanzhao?"

Wei Fu said quietly: "The governor is kind to me."

"Oh."

Xia Que responded without saying anything more. She spread a small blanket on the ground and felt sleepy. She lay down and closed her eyes to sleep. Before going to sleep, she also warned: "Remember to pay attention to see if there are any wolves coming."

"it is good."

After receiving the man's response, she fell into sleep with relief.

Wei Fu also closed his eyes to rest.

The night passed without incident, and the wolves did not appear.

When the sky showed a hint of white, Xia Que had already woken up, yawned, and her eyes were bleary. When she finished waking up, she found that Wei Fu had washed up and was waiting for her.

She quickly packed herself up and hit the road with him.

After walking for half a day, they were attacked by another wave of killers.

Yu Wende knew that they were going to Nanzhao to find helpers to rescue Pei Huai'an. He should have killed Pei Huai'an immediately instead of asking the Queen to kill him. The reason why he kept him alive until the Queen was just because he felt guilty.

Pei Huaian helped him secure the throne. Yu Wende still couldn't bear to kill him at once. After all, Yu Wende couldn't bear it. The best result was to kill him after Qiu.

This period of time was enough to eliminate the guilt in the emperor's heart.

The full moon day of August [-]th.

Yu Lian did not participate in the excitement of the Mid-Autumn Festival. She sat alone in a corner of the courtyard, looked up at the moon, and slowly said: "Chunyan, why didn't Pei Huaian come to pick me up?" (End of Chapter)
