She didn't want to go to southern Xinjiang, even though Pang Yi described it so well, saying it was spring-like all year round. The scenery was beautiful and pleasant, but... but so what?
She is still alone. She is still...she is still going to be sad and lost for the rest of her life.
It would be better for me to die together with Pang Yi today, so that their acquaintance would not be in vain.
…
"I know!"
As soon as Pang Yifu pushed open the blood-spattered door, he saw Xiao An crawling towards him step by step, crying in front of everyone. Xiao An, who used to be such a delicate lady, felt so wronged to wear the clothes of a peasant girl. Now she was crawling on the snow, crying, her hands were frozen purple, and the gold, jade, and emeralds were scattered all over the ground. She didn't care about it. She just crawled towards him crying hysterically.
"It's okay," Pang Yi picked up the white fox cloak and walked over. He squatted in front of Xiao An. Then he put the cloak on Xiao An. He said softly, "Let's go back."
"Pang..." Xiao An looked up at the man in front of her in a daze. Then she suddenly fainted.
…
The prefectural government office.
"Brother! Brother! Something happened!"
When Kong Wenmin was polishing his sword in the room, he heard Kong Wenjie's voice coming from outside. He frowned slightly. While inserting the sword into the scabbard, he walked to the door and saw Kong Wenjie running in in a hurry.
"What's wrong?" Kong Wenmin said in a deep voice, "I heard you screaming from a distance. You don't even remember who you are, and you're not afraid of being laughed at."
"Brother! Something really happened!" Kong Wenjie walked to Kong Wenmin in two steps. Regardless of the severity of the upper body, he held the door frame and said to Kong Wenmin with a serious face, "Brother, something happened in the Jiang family!"
"Jiang family?" Kong Wenmin frowned suddenly. Seeing Kong Wenjie was about to speak again, he made a gesture and pulled Kong Wenjie into the room. He closed the door with a click and asked in a deep voice, "What happened? What happened?"
"Brother, you should have heard that the Jiang family is not easy to deal with. They run a shop on the street, but they are always ripping off customers and killing people in secret. But you also know the Jiang family's backers, so even the prefect has always turned a blind eye and not taken it seriously. But today, someone has poked the hornet's nest of the Jiang family," Kong Wenjie said excitedly, his eyes sparkling and saliva flying, even more excited than the storyteller on the stage, "Brother, guess who is the owner of this hornet's nest?"
"What time is it? Are you still keeping us in suspense? Tell me quickly!" Kong Wenmin urged him.
"He was the deposed prince's man," Kong Wenjie pointed at the table, praising him unabashedly with every word he said. "After all, he was a member of the Eastern Palace. His skills were truly amazing. He faced seven ruffians all by himself, and he only had a half-foot-long dagger. But what happened later? The local tyrants of the Jiang family all lost an arm, and the blades on each of them were exactly the same, without any difference. But that man was completely unscathed. Brother, forgive me for being blunt, but even a leader in the Imperial Guard like you is probably no match for that man."
"Why did the deposed prince's men attack the Jiang family? Do you know?" Kong Wenmin frowned and asked, "Did he do it on purpose knowing the Jiang family's identity, or was it just an accident?"
"Ninety-nine percent of the time it was an accident," Kong Wenjie poured a cup of herbal tea and drank it in one gulp, while continuing to analyze with Kong Wenmin, "Brother, think about it, the deposed prince has been behaving very cautiously since entering Ningguta. Not to mention taking the initiative to attack the Jiang family, he probably didn't even dare to cough loudly. I think the deposed prince's subordinates are new here and don't know the details of the Jiang family. Otherwise, he wouldn't have entered the Jiang family's store, let alone attacked the Jiang brothers."
"Indeed, the deposed prince is in a situation where he can only protect himself, so how could he dare to cause trouble? What's more, he is pointing his sword at the Jinyiwei?" Kong Wenmin nodded, and couldn't help but curl his lips and smile, "But this is a great thing for our Imperial Guards. Hasn't the Jinyiwei been trying hard to squeeze into Ningguta? Over the years, relying on the Jiang brothers, a nest of local tyrants, they have suppressed our Imperial Guards everywhere. Now the deposed prince is paving the way for us."
