Xu Jinyi swallowed and felt a chill on his neck.
Gao Lu shook his head inscrutablely: "Onlookers see more clearly than those involved. Without love, there would be no hatred. This purse must have a story that is deeply engraved on its mind."
He Junlian seemed to be enraged. He picked up his sword and left without saying a word.
"If she hurt you, why would you remember her? Hate is the same as love."
"Forget her, live your own life, and make her regret it. This is the best revenge."
He Junlian paused for a moment, then continued walking forward.
Xu Jinyi sighed, put out the fire, left the roasted pheasant there and left.
He Junlian didn't know what was going on. He walked back as if he wanted to refute something, but he only saw the pheasant on the ground.
Xu Jinyi was actually not sure whether he would eat the roast chicken in which she had put a Peiyuan Pill, so she was just trying it.
In more than a year, He Junlian had never felt so comfortable, and even slept soundly leaning against a tree.
Xu Jinyi sat beside him, stroking his face and staring at him.
"You must have suffered a lot this year! I'm sorry I couldn't be with you."
When He Junlan woke up and looked at the dazzling sun, he felt as if he didn't know what day it was.
He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had such a good sleep.
The old wounds in his body had healed, and he seemed to have endless energy. The lingering fragrance in the air made He Junlian lose consciousness for a moment.
He stared at the pile of firewood that still retained some warmth with his eyes slightly narrowed.
Xu Jinyi was worried that he would become suspicious, so she didn't stay long and rode her horse quickly to the nunnery.
When the relic was taken out by the master, Xu Jinyi couldn't help feeling disappointed, because the relic was fake.
However, Xu Jinyi did not give up, but continued to search temples one by one.
After traveling all the way, Xu Jinyi lost a lot of weight, many horses died, and even the skin on the inside of his thighs was rubbed raw.
Time passed little by little, and Xu Jinyi came to a temple one day. The abbot's words made her laugh and cry.
"Master, do you mean that if I become a monk and practice Buddhism, I will be able to obtain relics after my death?"
The abbot nodded and said: "The donor is a great benefactor for ten generations. If he becomes a monk and practices Buddhism, I believe that he will definitely produce a relic when he passes away."
"Master, I want to find the relics to save my life. If I don't have the relics, I won't live to see the next year, so becoming a monk is just empty talk."
"Sorry to bother you, Master. Goodbye."
The master suddenly stopped her and said, "Please wait a moment, benefactor."
Xu Jinyi looked at him in confusion...
Two years later——
He Junlian stared at Ah Huai who was kneeling on the ground, his eyes were extremely red and his hands were shaking violently.
"Say it again!! What on earth did she do three years ago?"
He Junlian's chest was heaving violently, his expression was one of excitement, disbelief, confusion, and a hint of joy.
Ah Huai had promised Xu Jinyi that he would never mention those things, but in recent years, he saw that He Junlian insisted on not taking a queen, and there was no woman around him.
Moreover, he did not care about the affairs of the court at all. He was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins. All his thoughts were on the war, and he expanded the territory without regard for his own safety.
Although he had never asked about Princess Jiaoyang's situation, Ah Huai knew that he missed her.
But the knot in my heart is hard to untie, and I dare not go to see her.
Hearing that he was going to launch an expedition against the Xiongnu in the northern desert, Ah Huai could no longer hold back and told him the truth.
"Three years ago, Princess Jiaoyang knew of my existence and had Xiao Lingdang kidnap me."
"She fed me a poison pill to threaten me not to tell her what I had discovered. And she told me the truth. She has no ill will towards you."
"That's why I didn't show up and cut off contact with you during those days. Princess Jiaoyang is actually deeply in love with Your Majesty."
"The books in the library of the Jinyang Palace, your martial arts skills, and the money we spent on rebuilding our forces after our return are the best proof."
"Also, every time you were injured in battle and on the verge of death, the fine medicine you used was personally delivered to me by Princess Jiaoyang through Xiao Lingdang."
No wonder, no wonder he felt the effects of those medicines were so familiar, no wonder the taste was so similar.
He Junlian was so excited that tears filled his eyes. An indescribable emotion surged in his heart. Scenes from the past in Jinyang Palace came to his mind, leaving only sweetness.
"Although I don't know why Princess Jiaoyang wants you to leave in this way, there is no doubt that she loves you."
"You were able to leave safely because she arranged for someone to go out for you. She secretly accompanied the eldest prince all the way until she saw you safely enter the Liang Kingdom."
"Front Princess Jiaoyang would send Xiao Lingling to deliver medicine every once in a while, but there has been no news from her in the past two years."
"Xiao Lingling finally gave me a letter, repeatedly instructing me not to tell you everything Princess Jiaoyang had done for you, so that you would hate her."
He Junlian didn't want to hear what he said, nor did he want to punish Ah Huai for concealing the truth. Now he just wanted to see her as quickly as possible.
Ask her why?
Why was it so cruel that he hated her for three years? Why?
He Junlian felt extremely heartbroken when he thought about what he had done to her on the last night he left more than three years ago.
At the same time, I also thought of the red figure I saw in the valley when I left.
So she dragged her tired body to see him off after a night of exercise, right?
It took him more than twenty days to get back to Liang State from Jinyang Palace at full speed, so she was actually there during those twenty days!
He Junlian couldn't describe his feelings at the moment, his mind was full of questions.
