"Yu'er, listen to me. Your father and I have no feelings for each other. To the people of Yenan, we are the daughter of the Zhao family and the son of the Lan family. I am the regent princess chosen by my family, and he is the heir to the regent of the Lan family. We had no choice, but we were still so happy to have you. At that time, we also decided to cultivate our feelings, but later we became companions and became monarch and subject, but there was no love between us. We can live and die together, but we cannot sleep in each other's arms."
"Yu'er, you are an adult now, and you have your own path to follow. Mother also wants to be selfish for once, just for myself and the person in my heart. Mother will always be here, and mother will not leave. You can come and see me whenever you miss me, okay?" Zhao Lanxi wiped the tears of Lan Yu while speaking. Lan Yu kept shaking her head. She didn't want to listen, but Zhao Lanxi's words still entered her ears without missing a word.
She didn't know what to do. Her own mother didn't want her. "Mother, is there something that Yu'er didn't do well enough? Please don't abandon Yu'er. Please tell Yu'er to change, okay?" Lan Yu now felt that there must be something wrong with her. That's why Xiao Hang didn't want her, and now her mother didn't want her either.
"Yu'er, you did very well. It's not your problem, it's Mother's problem. Please forgive Mother." Zhao Lanxi's heart was broken. She had never seen Lan Yu cry like this.
Xiao Hang watched Lan Yu, who was crying so hard she couldn't even breathe, with his fists clenched tightly. He then walked over to Lan Yu and hugged her tightly in his arms, "Yu'er, don't be afraid. I'll go back to Silver Moon City with you. You'll be with your mother, and no one can separate you. But you have to let me stay with you, okay?"
"High Priest, if Yu'er goes back, will you still let her be a saint? I plucked Yu'er's feathers. She is my wife and she is engaged, so she cannot be a saint."
"After you go back, let her stay with your aunt for a while. We have no right to deprive her of the maternal love she has been missing for more than ten years, including you, aunt." Xiao Hang stroked Lan Yu's back to help her calm down, and gave her a solution.
"No, all I've ever wanted was Lan Minxing's life. He took my lover and harmed my sister. I can't help but hate him. But Xiaoli is not dead, and Xier is willing to stay with me, so I naturally won't hurt Yuer." Bai Han said this with certainty. He had hated someone for more than ten years, but now there seemed to be no reason to hate him anymore. He suddenly felt that he didn't know how to put the hatred that had accumulated over the past ten years.
"Well, this is not bad. The mother-daughter affection that has been lost for more than ten years must be vented, otherwise it will become a permanent thorn in the girl's heart. My disciple asked me to help this girl. I can't bring her back with bruises all over her body. How about this, you stay in Yenan. There is no danger now anyway. You should continue the mother-daughter affection and settle the hatred. Then we will go back. My disciple might be worried." Bai Li made the final decision.
"Senior Bai, is Lingshu also in Kyoto?" Jingxin suddenly asked Bai Li.
"Yeah, you are?"
"I'm Lan Yu and Ling Shu's senior sister. As long as Yu'er is safe, I have nothing to worry about. I want to go to Kyoto to see Ling Shu. She doesn't know about my master's death yet."
Finally, they split into two groups. Baili Xiaomu and Yan Guqi took Jingxin back to Kyoto, Liuyun Xiaofu and Xiao Hang followed Lan Yu back to Silver Moon City, and only Lan Minhang had no reason to go to Kyoto, and it seemed that he had no place to stay in Silver Moon City.
"High Priest, was it you who poisoned my father? Do you have an antidote?" Lan Yu suddenly thought of the poison in Lan Minhang. Bai Li's martial arts came from Lan Minhang. Lan Minhang should be a master, but the poison made him unable to use any internal strength. He was always in a state of fatigue, and his martial arts were equivalent to wasting.
Bai Han shook his head. "It's not me. It was back then... when Xiaoli was in trouble, the previous high priest gave him a drug to prevent him from taking action. There's no cure, but it's not life-threatening."
When Bai Li first heard Bai Han say that Lan Minxing was poisoned because of her, her heart still couldn't help but tighten. However, since her life was not in danger, it was nothing. Then, there was no need to ask that question. It was good that he didn't really care about her and the child.
Lan Yu walked to Lan Minxing's side. Lan Minxing had been staring at Bai Li and didn't notice Lan Yu approaching. Lan Yu followed Lan Minxing's line of sight. Lan Minxing looked at Bai Li with a gentleness that was not even there when he looked at herself. Lan Yu understood it because she had the same look when she looked at Xiao Hang.
"Father, please come back with me. From now on, you will no longer be the regent. You will only be Yu'er's father, okay?"
Lan Minxing acted as if he hadn't heard Lan Yu's words. He slowly walked towards Bai Li, but was stopped by Xiao Mu again. However, this time, Bai Li held Xiao Mu's hand down. "Xiao Li, can I have a few words with you alone?"
Bai Li was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and turned to walk to the side. Lan Minxing followed behind Bai Li, his eyes always on Bai Li.
Xiao Mu watched the two walk away, his eyes expressionless. Yan Guqi walked up to Xiao Mu and patted him on the shoulder. "Don't worry, Sister Bai Li won't break her promise. She never breaks her promise. She promised to live in seclusion with you in the future, and she will definitely keep it."
Xiao Mu remained the same, and didn't say anything. Yan Guqi thought he wouldn't respond to her words. Suddenly, Xiao Mu said, "I'm not worried that she won't come with me. I'm just worried that there will be one more person."
"Ah?" Yan Guqi didn't know whether he didn't hear clearly or he heard clearly but was not sure.
About a quarter of an hour later, Bai Li and Lan Minhang came over, both with smiles on their faces. One had his hands behind his back, like a modest gentleman, and the other was dressed in white, like a fairy who had fallen to earth.
The two walked side by side, and from a distance they looked like two old friends. When Xiao Mu saw this scene, his heart skipped a beat, "Could I be right?" Xiao Mu muttered to himself.
Unexpectedly, after the two came over, they didn't say goodbye or say anything to the others. Instead, one of them walked up to Lan Yu and said, "Let's go. Dad will go back to Silver Moon City with you."
The other one walked to the side of the horse led by Yan Guqi, jumped on it, and said to Xiao Mu: "Let's go, my disciple is still waiting for news from me."
Xiao Mu immediately smiled, then used Qinggong to mount his horse, but was stopped by Xiao Hang. "Two seniors, please wait a minute. I want to write a letter to Xiao Chenzi. Could you please bring it back for me?"
Afterwards, those who were returning to Kyoto returned to Kyoto, and those who were returning to Silvermoon City returned to Silvermoon City.
