The inn.
The teams of Shen Yijue and Ning Wanzhou have not returned yet.
After Nan Baoyi coaxed her grandmother to sleep, she returned to her room. Her little cousin and Han Yanliang had a game of cards in the outer room, playing cards while waiting for their sweetheart to come back.
She didn¡¯t like playing cards, so she washed up briefly and then went into the back room.
Remove the beads in the bronze mirror and apply the noodles to apply the face, but see a familiar dragon gold crown on the makeup.
She was startled, then picked it up and looked at it.
This is A Ruian¡¯s hair crown
Why does it appear here?
Noticing that there was a letter buried under the dowry, she quickly opened it.
The content of the letter was very brief, requiring her to go to a small house at the foot of Taibai Mountain alone according to the map drawn on the letter. If she dared to tell others, A Ruo's life would be in danger.
Nan Baoyi held the letter tightly and called He Ye in: "Did anyone come in when I went to wash up?"
He Ye was at a loss: "My slave was warming the fire in the outer room and didn't see anyone coming in. You are so panicked, but what happened?"
Nan Baoyi's face turned a little pale.
She shook her head: "No, nothing"
Dismissing the lotus leaves, she pushed open the old wooden window.
There was a lone lamp hanging outside the window, and the light reflected the falling snow in the sky. On the endless snow, there was a row of distant footprints, extending outside the inn.
Her face turned even paler.
Heavy snow blocked the way in and out.
But there are other forces near the inn.
They knew she would be trapped here, and they even held A Ruo hostage
No matter how you look at it, it looks like a long-planned conspiracy.
The girl slowly raised her dark eyes, and after pondering for only half a quarter of an hour, she made a decisive decision.
The other party did not hurt Ah Ruo, but asked her to go by name. This shows that they are not coming for Ah Ruo, but for her, Nan Baoyi.
She must go.
The noise of the little cousin and the others playing cards came from the outer room.
The other people in the inn are also the confidants of the second brother.
She was sure that there was no infiltration of the other party's forces here, so she took a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, confidently and boldly left a letter explaining the situation to her little cousin and the others, and then drew the small map according to the instructions.
She knew that with her little cousin's temper, she would never be allowed to save Ah Ruo alone, so after doing all this, she put on a thick coat and fox fur, carried a wind lamp, and neatly He climbed out of the window and quietly ran outside the inn under the cover of night and heavy snow.
The little cousin and the others will find out that she is missing within half an hour. After that, Boss Han will immediately lead people to chase her.
She had half an hour to deal with the other party.
The oncoming wind and snow roared bone-piercingly.
Nan Baoyi was trudging alone in the snow. It was freezing cold and there was no one around, but somehow she was not afraid at all.
I don¡¯t know how long I¡¯ve been gone
Until his feet were so cold that he lost consciousness, Nan Baoyi finally saw the warm yellow light at the foot of Taibai Mountain.
¡¡
"This is what your father and your mother experienced."
After a long night of nothing, Huo Qi simply told Ah Ruo the story of Xiao Ning and Wen Tong.
After he finished speaking, he poured Ah Ruo a cup of hot buttermilk.
The little guy was holding the buttermilk, his eyes were filled with tears, and he was sobbing hard.
He didn¡¯t know that his biological father died so tragically and helplessly, nor did he know that his biological mother-in-law had worked so hard to protect him
Huo Qi lowered his eyelashes and said with a more serious face: "If there is anyone in the Xiao royal family who is a good person, it is probably your biological father."
Back then, thousands of people from the Fire Tribe were buried outside the Great Wall, and only a few dozen people were lucky enough to return to the Great Wall alive.
At that time, everyone wanted to kill them.
It was the former Crown Prince Xiao Ning who asked for his protection, but also allowed them to enter the pass and still gave them the status of good citizens.
He commented: "Compared to the former crown prince Xiao Ning, Xiao Daoyan is too cruel and he is unfit to be the emperor."
Ah Ruo raised his sleeves and wiped away his tears.
He doesn¡¯t think his father is cruel.
The decisiveness and determination to kill and the exhaustion of mechanisms developed to protect others are not cruelty, but a different kind of tenderness.
Just like the thorns that protect the flowers in the Imperial Garden.
The confidant guard hurried in and said respectfully: "Young Master, she is here! The sentry has checked the area, and no one else is following."
Huo Qi smiled: "The plan can begin."
Nan Baoyi was shocked when he saw Huo Qi.
She never expected that the person who kidnapped A Ruian was actually a gentleman from the Imperial College!
She came back to her senses and originally planned to fight with Huo Qi to delay time, but Huo Qi was not stupid. He directly asked someone to tie her hands, put her and Ah Ruo into the carriage, and headed straight to Taibai Mountain. And go.
The sky is covered with heavy snow and the mountain roads are steep.
Nan Baoyi and Ah Ruo were sitting together. She used the endless torches outside the car to see that Ah Ruo was fine and unharmed.
She breathed a sigh of relief: "Master, are you crazy? Why did you kidnap you?"
A childish voice said like a weak adult: "It's a long story But I'm so stupid. I know that there is danger here, but I still come here alone. What a worry!"
Nan Baoyi was funny: "I thought the other person came for me and didn't want to hurt you. Do you think the stepmother is so easy to be?"
Ah Ruian now knows that she is not his aunt.
She obviously didn¡¯t have to come, but she came anyway.
He untied his little cloak and covered Nan Baoyi's knees considerately: "We are all one family, why are stepmothers not stepmothers? What are you doing out there like this? It's cold in the mountains, but my mother-in-law doesn't get cold when she covers her cloak. I'm still young, and my cloak is not as big as my father's cloak. It will be fine when I grow up a little bit!"
The little guy is so gentle.
I probably learned the behavior of putting on a cloak for my daughter¡¯s family from my second brother.
Nan Baoyi was a little moved.
As the two of them were talking, the sky was getting light and the heavy snow was about to stop, with only scattered snowflakes falling occasionally.
The team finally reached the top of the snow-capped mountain.
Huo Qi looked around and called, "Where are the people?"
He had ambushed a team of dead soldiers here in advance. According to the plan, traps and other things should have been prepared, but there was snow everywhere as far as the eye could see, and there was no trace of his people!
I felt a little uneasy in my heart for no reason.
He shouted sternly: "Come here!"
The mountain was silent, and his dead soldiers did not answer him.
A gust of cold wind roared past, picking up the snow.
When the cold wind stopped and the snow dispersed, a slender and tall figure appeared in Huo Qi's eyes.
Xiao Yi wore leather military boots and black narrow-sleeved attire. He twirled the Nine-foot Mo Dao nonchalantly: "Master Huo, are you calling the person at your feet?"
"Second brother!"
"Father!"
Nan Baoyi and Ah Ruo shouted in surprise.
Huo Qi's face instantly stiffened.
This time
"Xiao Daoyan should still be on his way here at this moment. How could he appear on the top of the mountain?" !
He stared at his feet in disbelief.
It was then that he discovered that the dead soldiers he had carefully trained were all covered in snow and died at his feet.
