As soon as these words were spoken, not only did Xu Shu take a few steps back and almost fall, even Xiao Nanhui was dumbfounded and speechless for a moment.
These words are not at all convincing, but they reveal an almost shameless certainty.
Whoever says that the current emperor is polite, trustworthy, and speaks with moderation is obviously making excuses and being shameless.
The woman beside the carriage did not respond for a long time, and the green-clothed swordsman in the carriage finally became a little impatient.
"Xiao Yingwei, hurry up and get into position."
After the spring hunt, her title changed from attendant to camp guard, which was at least three or four levels lower than Xu Shu's guard order.
If the words "camp and guard" made her lose face in front of Xu Shu, then the word "in position" was used extremely badly.
You have to know that the charioteer may be able to ride on horseback, but the guards have to run behind the chariot.
In position? Where does she go to take position?
The curtain of the carriage was lifted a little from the inside, and a hand wearing Buddhist beads stretched out, but the movement was like that of a young lady soliciting customers in Wangchen Tower.
"Get in the car."
It is better to be the boss, which is much more insightful than being a lackey.
Xiao Nanhui was not reserved at all and climbed onto the carriage with his butt sticking out.
Before entering the carriage, she looked back at Xu Shu again.
He was actually still standing almost in the same place, but for some reason, he seemed very far away from her.
Just when he was about to look at her, she hurried into the car.
She was indeed not cruel enough. If she stayed for a moment longer, her heart would waver.
There was a faint bitter smell in the carriage. Xiao Nanhui took a deep breath and let his heart slowly calm down.
"Where are we going?"
"Head north to Huozhou."
She paused after hearing this, then leaned forward.
"North? Aren't they going after Yan Zi? They..."
"Chasing is always a bad idea. No matter how fast you move, you'll always be one step behind. If you want to win the game, you have to find a way to get ahead."
She was a little unable to listen for a moment, and her tone became urgent.
"But how can we get ahead of the curve? They took Xiao Zhun away, so they must have some ulterior motive. And who knows when Puhuna will reappear. Why would we give up this only clue?"
"Who said this is the only clue right now?"
The man opened the brocade box beside him with one hand. Inside the box was a piece of belt, which was exactly the one she brought out from the house that night.
"What message is hidden in the tape you found in the Xiao residence? Where did the people in Zou Sifang's residence go? Who wrote the letter from Heimu County, and what did it say? Don't you want to know the answers to all of this?"
Her clenched fists loosened, and after a while, she finally leaned back slowly onto the cushion.
She was convinced, but many questions remained unanswered.
She sat up again and was about to ask, but when she turned around, she found that the man had closed his eyes and seemed to be asleep.
He seemed very tired, with a half-read book lying on his knees.
"His Majesty?"
She called out softly, but he still didn't respond. Then, Ding Weixiang's low voice came from outside the car.
"In order to leave this long journey as soon as possible, the master spent three days and three nights discussing politics with various elders without sleep."
Xiao Nanhui stopped talking.
After thinking for a while, she picked up the volume and put it aside, then pulled out a blanket folded nearby and pulled it over the man.
After doing all this, she suddenly realized one thing: this was the first time she had done something like this for someone else, while Du Juan had done it for her many times before.
Her nose felt sore, and she nearly burst into tears again. But she eventually learned to calm her emotions. She silently recited the names of those who had left her, and gradually felt a warm power flowing from the tip of her heart, eventually spreading throughout her body.
Opening his eyes again, Xiao Nanhui raised the car window a little and looked out.
The car had already driven out of the city gate. Outside was the familiar scene outside the gate of Quecheng. The flat official road led to the distance, and the tall poplar trees on the side of the road, which were already lush green, rustled in the summer morning light.
She had set out from here countless times and returned here countless times.
This time, she didn't know where the end of the road was. She only knew that no matter what was waiting for her ahead, she would end it all with her own hands.
