Chapter 218

The drunken talk about the food and drink didn't attract the attention of Gu Bainan and Jiang Li at first, until one of them held a glass of wine and said drunkenly: "What can you call what you're talking about, something big is worth talking about?"

Another person at the same table asked in dissatisfaction: "It's as if you have some valuable news!"

The man laughed loudly, drank the wine in the glass, and put the glass down with a "snap": "Let me tell you, I can't buy this news with money!" As he said, he squinted his eyes. Mou cast a contemptuous look at the people at the same table, "Do you know that on the day of King Qin's wedding, the girl Weiyue in Tiancheng couldn't find her groom in the whole city. If the emperor hadn't come forward to appease her, Miss Weiyue would have almost toppled the imperial city!"

As soon as these words came out, Gu Bainan, who was picking up vegetables, gave his hands a pause, and the action of picking up vegetables suddenly stopped.Jiang Li also cast his eyes on the woman across from him at the first moment, seeing the complicated expression on her face at the moment.

Sensing Jiang Li's gaze, Gu Bainan collected his attention, pretended he hadn't heard anything and continued to pick up vegetables, stuffing them into his mouth mouthful by mouthful.

The conversation over there was still going on, and those with sharp ears heard the news, and couldn't help but look at the man drinking Gao, waiting for him to continue talking.

The man's courage was getting bigger and bigger, and he puffed out his chest under the eyes of many people: "You don't know, do you? When Princess Qin left Dongwen, Young Master Liefeng, the shadow guard of Prince Qin's residence, followed, but in the end he brought him with him. He went back to the palace with injuries all over his body, saying that the people from Sen Luomen surrounded him as soon as they left the border and snatched Princess Qin away."

"Did you see those notices on the street? I guess His Royal Highness King Qin must have gone out to find Princess Qin himself because he didn't complete the marriage."

After the drunken man finished talking, he looked proud, as if he was waiting for someone to ask him where he got the news.It's just that he didn't like it, and a few people from the rivers and lakes at the next table interjected: "No wonder Sen Luomen has stopped accepting business recently. It turns out that it is to prevent being caught by the people of Prince Qin's residence."

Gu Bainan didn't have the heart to listen to what was said later, she quickly swallowed what was in her mouth, wiped her mouth casually, took a silver ticket, stood up, and walked outside.

Jiang Li then got up and followed closely.

Walking in the market, Jiang Li's attention was always on her side face, the cold brows were stained with a strong gloom, he thought for a while, and couldn't help asking: "Are you still going to Hanshan?"

His words made Gu Bainan stunned for a moment: "Go, why don't you go?"

The things she has decided will not be changed just because of this turmoil. If she is asked to obediently go back to Prince Qin's mansion, she can't do it.

Jiang Li looked up at the sky, and stopped her, "Take a rest for the night."

Hearing this, Gu Bainan also took a look at the sky, and after a word of approval, he turned around and walked towards the inn.

The current time is really not suitable for traveling. There are no towns in the north. They want to rush to Hanshan in one go, but if they start now, they must be in the wilderness of Yimapingchuan in the middle of the night.They were traveling in the middle of the night in the middle of winter, and there were two of them. If anyone paid attention, their whereabouts might be exposed.

In the past, she was not like this, and she would not rush forward without thinking so much. This time, she didn't even know it. There was a resistance to Dongwen in her heart, and she wanted to leave here more than ever.

In this way, the two of them turned back to the inn and asked for two upper rooms, and they both stayed in their own rooms, waiting for the dark and dawn to set off.

When night fell, this small town with few people quickly fell into silence, and the inn was completely different from the daytime. There was no one downstairs for the waiter who was out of shift.

Gu Bainan was in the room, sitting on a chair watching the flickering candles from time to time, his mind was filled with the words that the drunken businessman said during the day.

In order to find her, Jun Yinuo directly released Weiyue's pigeons on the day of the wedding, leaving a mess for the emperor.

This was beyond her expectation.Originally, she only guessed that he would take this opportunity to find trouble with Kang Qian and let Sen Luomen take the blame. In this way, he cleared the relationship, Kang Qian owed him an explanation, and Wei Yue became his princess. What he wants to do depends on his mood, but at this time, he offended Tiancheng who is the most helpful.

She really doesn't understand him.If he didn't want her to be taken to Kanggan so much, why couldn't he discuss it with her, the matter didn't need to go to this point.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk"

Following a knock on the door, Jiang Li asked outside, "Are you asleep?"

Jiang Li's voice interrupted Gu Bainan's thoughts, she collected her thoughts and said, "Come in."

Jiang Li pushed the door open and came in, and saw her sitting on the chair, as if she hadn't moved since she came in.

He closed the door and walked over, stood in front of her and asked seriously: "Are you really not going back?"

In the past, he didn't even know how to ask questions, not to mention that he wouldn't ask them again and again. It's just that he couldn't ignore her more and more.He couldn't help trying to understand even the things she didn't say.

Gu Bainan had never seen Jiang Li ask the same question twice before, and said, "I find that you seem to be talking more and more, and you will catch up with that girl Xiaoyin in a while."

As if being ridiculed, Jiang Li clenched his hands tightly, with a look of unnaturalness on his face, he held back for a long time before saying anything: "He has left everything and came to look for you, I thought you would go back."

"If it was you, do you feel that the person you have trusted repeatedly has betrayed you again and again, would you return to him?" Gu Bainan lowered his head, "You should know better than me that he was not the kind of person who would be affectionate from the very beginning. A person who kills and kills decisively cannot become deeply attached to each other.”

Gu Bainan's words, in Jiang Li's opinion, were serious.But he can vaguely understand her thoughts at the moment, so he won't refute her whatever she says.The reason why he ran over to ask her if she would go back in the middle of the night was because he was worried that she would regret it if she went to Hanshan.He was afraid that if he stayed with her longer, he would be so selfish that he wanted to keep her by his side.

Seeing Jiang Li remain silent, Gu Bainan let out a breath slowly: "Is there anything else?"

Jiang Li shook his head: "You should rest earlier, we will leave at midnight tomorrow."

Gu Bainan nodded: "Okay."

Here, Gu Bainan and Jiang Li temporarily settled down in the northernmost town of Dongwen, while Jun Yinuo was already far away from the imperial city alone, and had been heading north.

In the cold winter night, he was driving the horse, his face was colder than the cold wind, without any pause.The bitter wind was blowing against his handsome face, but he didn't feel cold at all.

Inside his black skirt was hidden a bunch of bright red bracelets and a clean hosta.His dark eyes stared straight at the road ahead in the night, avoiding all detours, wishing to catch up with the escaped woman as quickly as possible.

No one knows, when he knew that she had lured Lie Feng back to the mansion, but she herself had slipped away, he felt anxious and afraid like never before, even he himself didn't understand why he was never afraid of anyone, Anything, this time he will be afraid that she will just disappear into his world.
