Thin Mei·Love Fragrance Quilt

Chapter 193

So, she asked sullenly: "Where are you going to send me?"

Zhuang Bilan said: "Prince Xin also asked about you several times, and I think about it very much. He is currently in Nanhua City, some distance from the front line, so he is still safe for the time being. I will let Xiaodao take you there, let's rest there for a while first!" "

When mentioning Li Mingyuan, Qian Mei already has mixed feelings in her heart.

She once regarded him as her lover, and of course he was also her relative; since she recovered her childhood memory, she knew that he was indeed her relative, perhaps the only relative.

According to Zhang Jingxue's seniority, she should have called him uncle.

But at some point, their relationship has completely changed.

She didn't want to be his pawn, but after all, she voluntarily became his most beneficial pawn for the sake of covering the blood that filled her eyes; he didn't really have any feelings for her, but he loved her and cherished her, obviously he didn't fully understand her. She is used as a pawn.

They... are still close relatives who can rely on each other in this world, right?
She touched her raised belly, and said in a low voice, "Okay, I'll go back to Uncle Qi!"

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
Zhuang Bilan acted extremely cautiously, expecting that Tang Tianxiao would have eyeliners watching in the town, but let Ke Qianmei change into men's clothes and pretend to be her own bodyguard to leave the clinic with her entourage, and wandered around the city again before going to a hospital An unremarkable carriage was sent to Nanhua Mansion by his confidant, Konoe Xiaodao.

Along the way, from time to time, I saw Chu soldiers under King Xin patrolling with swords and halberds, but the prosperous towns in the past were very sparse, and even few shops and inns were open.

Because of Zhuang Bilan's repeated instructions, Xiaodao was afraid that Ke Qianmei's tires would get angry, so he led the carriage and only chose the wide and flat official road.

The official road that used to be unimpeded in the past is now heavily guarded, with checkpoints set up everywhere, and Zhuang Bilan's handwritten letter is required before they are allowed to pass.

But Qianmei felt that she had almost recovered, but Xiaodao was quite masterful, and she acted extremely cautiously, walking slowly along the road, and it took three or four days to arrive at Nanhua Mansion.

But she didn't know that Ke Qianmei could see the people's livelihood wasting down along the road, pedestrians came and went in a hurry, and there was no festive atmosphere of the New Year's Eve. Looking back on the bustling and lively scenes she saw when she went out with Tang Tianxiao twice, she felt unspeakably sad and depressed , I really wish I could reach Nanhua Mansion as soon as possible, so I can't see it or worry about it.

On the day we arrived in Nanhuafu, the sky was very gloomy, and it seemed that a snowstorm was brewing.

Xiaodao rejoiced and said: "God is still helping. If the road is blocked by wind and snow, I'm afraid the princess will not be able to bear it."

Because Ke Qianmei had already left the Great Zhou Palace, and his own son turned against the court, Xiao Dao did not address him as "Concubine Shu", but only with the title of "Princess" when he was not married.

No matter whether she is called Concubine Shu or Princess, Ke Qianmei is a bit heart-piercing.These two identities should have nothing to do with her.

It's just that if someone calls her Miss Zhang Er now, I'm afraid she's not used to it.

After entering Nanhua Mansion, I found the mansion where Li Mingyuan had been staying, and when I asked the steward to inquire, I realized that Li Mingyuan did not live in the city these days, but stayed in the camp outside the city, watching the military training in person. .

Xiaodao asked: "Princess, do you want someone to settle you down in the city first? I think there are big men in the camp, so it would be inconvenient to go there."

Nan Yayi changed into men's clothes and stayed in the barracks with Zhuang Bilan, but Qian Mei's stomach became more and more obvious, and it was not convenient to even change into men's clothes.

Moreover, Li Mingyuan is not Zhuang Bilan.

She was silent for a moment and replied: "Let's go, go to the camp and have a look."

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

When turning to the outside of the city, the wind intensified, blowing wild sand and hitting the carriage, making Ke Qianmei wonder if there was hail.

When I opened the curtain to look, there was a large cloud of wind and sand hitting the front of the car, entering through the curtain, hitting the face directly, and splashing into the eyes, causing a burst of pain.

Xiaodao hurriedly said: "Princess, the wind is too strong, be careful of freezing!"

While he was talking, Qian Mei rubbed her fascinated eyes, and could barely see the black and rolling clouds in the sky.

She said in a low voice: "It's the first lunar month, it's not a good omen!"

Xiao Dao didn't understand, but he just covered his hood tightly and told the coachman to speed up his pace, so as to get to the camp before the snowstorm arrived.

Ke Qianmei said softly: "Blizzards always come, so what's the difference if it arrives early or late?"

Xiaodao didn't hear clearly, and asked: "What did the princess say?"

But Qian Mei cheered up and said, "It's nothing. It's almost spring, so there's nothing to worry about. It's fine for me to ride a horse alone."

Xiaodao smiled and said: "Princess was joking, with Xiaodao here, no matter what, the princess will be delivered to Prince Xin safely."

But Qianmei stopped talking.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

In the evening, Fang arrived at the camp where Li Mingyuan was.

But after reporting the names of Zhuang Bilan and Ke Qianmei, the guards did not let them in immediately, but hurriedly sent someone to report.

But Qian Mei had already got off the carriage, staring at the stretch of camps in front of her in a daze.

Xiaodao was already a little uneasy, and said with a smile: "The front line is fighting fiercely, and the Prince Xin is stationed here, so I think we should take more precautions."

Another cold wind blew by, but Qian Mei tightened the fur coat on her body, she still felt cold, but said with a smile: "Fortunately, Sister Yayi prepared some thick clothes for me, otherwise this cold spring season would be hard to endure."

Xiao Dao said with a dry smile, "Maybe it's so cold because it's in the wilderness here?"

After a while, someone rushed out from the inside and approached, but it was Sifang who took her to see Li Mingyuan in Jingshan that day.

He bowed to her, bowed his head and said: "Princess, the prince has sent a message that if the princess wants to come back, please bring Aunt Cao and Mr. Kanati back together."

Xiaodao said blankly: "Aunt Cao? Kanati? Who is it?"

But Qianmei's heart was cold.

She asked lightly, "Is that all?"

Sifang hesitated, his eyes swept over her obviously protruding belly, and said softly: "The prince also said that he doesn't want to see the princess in her current state."

Ke Qianmei pursed her lips tightly, and walked into the carriage without saying a word.

Xiaodao was surprised by Li Mingyuan's attitude, but Qianmei was not surprised.

After so many grievances and entanglements, she has long had her own concerns and apprehensions about coming to join Li Mingyuan.

Since Zhuang Bilan sent her here, there must have been a letter to inform her before she arrived.But just now the steward of Li Mingyuan's residence, knowing that the weather is bad, seeing Xiaodao taking her out of the city in the wind and snow without even saying a word to persuade her, she knew something was wrong.

Aunt Cao and Kanati had already been killed; Tang Tianxiao even had someone plant a frame on her, turning her into the culprit of their murders.

But after she helped Nan Yayi escape and handed over the military defense plan, it was not difficult to see through this kind of framing.

But Li Mingyuan was still angry.

Maybe he hated her for not being smart enough to drag Kanati down, maybe he thought she could have used Tang Tianxiao's feelings more thoroughly, or maybe he hated the flesh and blood of the enemy in her belly.

She was tired of everything she did for hatred and power, including everything Tang Tianxiao did, everything Li Mingyuan did, and everything she did herself.

But the fact that a done deal is done, but Qianmei doesn't want to and is powerless to change it.

Dragging a little life stirring in her belly from time to time, she was powerless even to hate.

When Xiaodao wanted to ask again, Sifang said to him: "Brother, our lord wants to inquire about the situation at Shizi Zhuang's place, please go and meet him."

Xiaodao was stunned, so he had no choice but to agree, turned his head to Ke Qianmei and said, "Princess, please wait in the car first, and I will come as soon as I go. If the prince of Xin refuses to take him in, I will naturally take the princess back."

Take in?

But Qian Mei raised a cold smile on her lips, and said slowly: "You go, I will clean up."

Xiaodao was not at ease, and ordered the driver to drive the carriage to a shelter from the wind, and then hurriedly followed Sifang into the camp.

But Qian Mei packed the luggage in the car, stuffed it together with the leftover dry food into the bag, and jumped out of the car.

When the coachman and the other two attendants of the Zhuang family looked at her in surprise, she smiled casually and said, "Help me go back and tell Brother Zhuang, Qian Mei, thank him for his kindness in saving and helping each other these days. If I am a blessed one, Presumably there will be no future."

She turned her head and went to hold the mount beside the knife.

The entourage hurriedly asked: "Princess, aren't you going back? You...where are you going?"

But Qian Mei stepped on the stirrup, jumped up with her bulky body, and sat on the horse's back firmly.

She took the rein and said, "If it's like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to go back to Beihe to herd sheep. I'll find a place to farm!"

Everyone was stunned, she had already hit the horse's butt with a whip, riding alone, and shot out like an arrow.

The sky was full of yellow sand, the cold wind was howling, and the clouds were densely covered. They were running like monsters under the dark sky.

Such a gloomy and cold weather is really like the night when my parents and sister were abused to death, so lonely and frightening.

The difference is that at that time, she was still a child; but now, she already has her own child in her womb.

There is no longer a plain white figure, full of tenderness and pity, using his warm embrace to relieve her from danger and despair.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

After running not far, the sky became darker, and large snow graupel accompanied by hailstones hit the head and face.

The faster you walk, the more painful it will be when you hit your face. The tightly closed hood can't stop the cold wind, and it has been blown down, and even the bun is blown away, flying in the wind and snow, dancing with black hair.

The inhaled cold air burned the throat, but the exhaled breath was still warm, taking away the remaining heat in the body little by little, turning into a white mist that dissipated instantly in the cold wind.

Gradually, the graupel and hail have turned into heavy snow.

She remembered that Li Mingyuan took her and Zhang Jingxue to watch the snow when it snowed for the first time in her reborn memory.

The goose feathers are thinly sliced, and the Qiongzhu is sprinkled densely, leaning against the east wind for a long time, and paving jade as a tower.

They were dressed in plain clothes, watching the plums and snow, and smiling at her happily throwing snowballs in the snow.

She is different, dressed in bright red, like a fire burning in the snow.

She always looked eagerly at the pair of silhouettes, with a vague expectation.

When they held hands, they looked at each other with no tolerance for others; and when she finally found someone she could hold her hand for a lifetime, the blood and sea of ​​fire in her memory engulfed the world like molten lava.To pour out all the love has become the biggest joke in life.

After all, she couldn't find anyone to hold her hand shoulder to shoulder and watch the sky full of snow.

After all, she put aside all her dreams, such a lonely one made Xue Hua turn her hair white.

It was dark, but the silvery white of the ground was still dazzling.

The dull pain in her abdomen reminded her of the protest of that little life.

Gritting her teeth across a field, she stopped in front of an earth temple.

It is the kind of small temple that is set up nearby by a country family. It has walls made of burnt earth, a roof with a moat, and no door. There is a clay incense burner on the dilapidated table, with one foot missing, and it is made of broken bricks. The rendering, half crooked, looks extremely desolate.

She buckled the horse to the nearby tree, went in and prayed silently for a moment in front of the blurred portrait of the land lord, then unpacked the bundle, found a brocade mattress that she brought out from the cart and spread it in a corner, and took out a big cake. After gnawing, she wrapped herself in two thick cotton coats, hugged her legs and rested quietly with her eyes closed.
