The palace is quiet, and the empress of the cold palace is acting as a demon

Chapter 526
Ning Xizhao watched Ning Miao's eyes turn red from crying, and suddenly his heart was clenched together: "Miaomiao..."

Ning Miao reached out and hugged Ning Xizhao, crying and said, "Xizhao, come home with me, Shu'er and You'er are still looking forward to your coming home..."

Family.

Ning Xizhao felt the warmth in Ning Miao's embrace.

Maybe he never had nothing.

Or maybe he just never knew.

In the cold city in the north of Kyushu, there are golden ginkgo and poplar in winter.A gust of north wind blew through the city, and brilliant gold floated all over the city, falling on the black rubble and blue stone bricks.

He thought he had never cared about the city, but now it spreads out in his mind, the barbecue in the streets, the spirits in the tavern, the familiar weapons shop, and the comrades and friends who grew up together in the barracks in the court. partner.

There are also his adoptive father and mother, and his uncle who can only count and know nothing about the world.

At the sound of the Buddha bell in Liufeng Mountain, he was like an amnesiac who picked up his memory, and finally remembered everything he actually had.

"Xi Zhao..." Ning Miao saw him lost his mind, and called his name.

"Okay, let's go home." Ning Xizhao said.

Hearing what he said, Ning Miao was stunned for a second, then her eyes dimmed and she smiled: "Well, let's go home."

……

The return trip was no longer as hard as it was when they came here. They all gradually adapted to the hypoxic environment. Although Qin Wan occasionally had to take the medicine given by Ji Yan to relieve the headache, it became more relaxed due to the different mood.

They stayed in Xiage village in Bailangdi for a few days, either riding yaks on the meadow, or went to the forest with the people in the village to pick herbs and mushrooms.

Xun Che followed Danmu to learn how to use the Snowy Scimitar, and also learned hunting skills from the hunters of the White Wolf Division.

Qin Wan and the girls in the village learned how to make Qiang silk, make wine from barley and make pastries.

Occasionally, she would also tease the child born to King Kong, a new life always brings hope and joy.

After playing for a few days, they bid farewell to the White Wolf Department, rode on horses and crossed the ancient road, and returned to the Kingdom of Shu.

Ji Yanyiyan was waiting for her to return at the border pass. When he saw Xun Che, his eyes obviously froze for a moment, but he didn't say much.

Qin Wan did not stay in Shu for long.One is because she saw Xun Che's obvious jealousy when she was talking to Ji Yan, and the other is because if she stayed for a few more days, Ning Fei would definitely come to see her according to etiquette.In order to avoid seeing Ning Fei's hypocritical and hostile face, Qin Wan declined Ji Yan's persuasion, but drove all the way to Jiangcheng, Bazhou in a carriage.

The owner of the Chicken Soup Chaoshou shop in Jiangcheng Street Market is the eldest son of that owner.Standing in front of the wooden sign that said "Recommended by Wanwan", Qin Wan whispered to Xun Che about her "feat" that made this hand-made shop popular in the past.

Then the two of them ate, drank, had fun in Jiangcheng, climbed Shennv Peak to watch the Shengjiang River rolling eastward, and bought paints and brushes that can only be found in the land of Bashu at the night market stalls.

Qin Wan wanted to earn some money on a whim, so she set up a booth to sell calligraphy and paintings. She made a bet with Xun Che to see whether her calligraphy would sell better or Xun Che's paintings would sell more.As a result, Xun Che's paintings were very popular, but Qin Wan's Xishu Caozhang was not cared for. Qin Wan was so angry that he insisted on asking Xun Che to treat her to a big meal at the best restaurant in Jiangcheng with the money from selling the paintings.

After finally having a good time in Bazhou, they got into the carriage and drove all the way to the southeast, entering the city of Yuezhou in the south, where they were warmly received by Shi Siniang.Then they turned southward, passed through Leizhou, and finally arrived at Qucheng.

The entire Qucheng is under the command of the Danzhou Army to be repaired and rebuilt intensively. Although some places are still under construction, it can be seen that the place has gradually returned to its former prosperity.

As soon as Xun Che arrived in Qucheng, he was ordered out of the tavern to drink by his comrades in the Danzhou Army who had guarded Qucheng together.

Qin Wan followed Lie Xian to climb up the newly repaired city wall turret, looking at the blue sea and blue sky.

"Niang Niang, you were in a good mood a few days ago, why did you look unhappy when you arrived in Qucheng?" Lie Xie asked.

Qin Wan leaned against the city wall, folded his arms and sighed, "I'm a little scared to go to Danzhou with Xun Che."

"Why? What are you worried about now?" Lie Xian asked suspiciously.

Qin Wan nuzzled and said: "Xun Che's family still only thinks of me as a little maid in Penglai Luqiu's mansion. It's not right to be in a wrong family, do you think I will be kicked out by Xun Che's parents directly. "

"Ma'am, you're actually worrying about this?" Lie Xian looked at Qin Wan who was usually fearless, and really didn't expect her to care what Xun Che's parents thought.

Qin Wan curled her lips: "How can you not think about it? Although the Xun family has moved to Danzhou now, they are a native Dongyi family, and their bones are full of old traditions. You must know that this kind of big family pays the most attention to family status. If they don't want me to enter the Xun family's door, I have to think about this matter carefully, I can't really be a maid or concubine for Xun Che."

"Your Majesty, you really value Young Master Xun Er very much." Lie Xie said with a smile.

"That's right." Qin Wan stretched his waist facing the sea and stretched his arms, "Now, I just want to live the life of the most ordinary people in peace and order, and be a real salted fish relying on Xun Xun. Che raised me for the rest of my life."

Lie Xie smiled: "Is the empress's ambition always like this?"

Qin Wan nodded: "That's right, what I originally planned was to quickly help Ning Yi unify the Kyushu that he wanted to unify, and then become a salted fish queen in the harem, eating, drinking, and living a life of prosperity and wealth. But after going around for so many years , the wish has never been fulfilled, and I am entangled in these right and wrong all day long. I am really going to be bored to death. But fortunately, look at this blue sea, blue sky and coconut grove beach. Being able to live here is also my fate’s compensation gone."

"Mother..." Lie Xie asked Qin Wan earnestly, "After listening to Lord Baidi Tianjun's words on Liufeng Mountain that day, I always wanted to ask you, is Second Young Master Xun the reincarnation of His Majesty Ning Emperor? "

Qin Wan looked at Lie Xie: "You didn't ask me this question after holding back all the way from Mount Liufeng, did you?"

Lie Xie: "Well, during this period of time, you have been clinging to Master Xun Er every day, like glue, how can your subordinates have a chance to ask."

Qin Wan laughed and said, "It's not as exaggerated as glue like paint."

"It's obviously more exaggerated." Lie Xi laughed.

Qin Wan took a deep breath and said, "How do you answer this question? What do you think?"

Gap: "My subordinates feel that the three souls and seven souls of Second Young Master Xun come from His Majesty Ning Emperor, so he is the reincarnation of Emperor Ning. Moreover, the soul of His Majesty Ning Emperor has fused into the soul of Second Young Master Xun, This is all the more evident, without a doubt.”

Qin Wan smiled: "Lie Xie, I just realized now that in the past 300 years, it's not that I have found him again and again, but he has found me again and again. I remember Brother Chu said that he was in the When he didn't find me, he must have suffered a lot. But when he found me, I brought him more pain..."

Lie Xie: "Madam, there are always bitterness, hotness, ups and downs in life, but my subordinates feel that it is much better for people who love each other to join hands than to weather the wind and rain alone."

"You're right, that's the truth. Speaking of which, Lie Xian, you're not too young, haven't you met someone you like?" Qin Wan turned to look at Lie Xian, "If there is , you tell me, I won't stop you from getting married."

Lie Xie didn't expect Qin Wan to ask such a question suddenly, his face flushed slightly: "Mother, why did you ask this suddenly? My subordinate is the supervisor of the Dark You Division, the number one dark guard in Kyushu, how could he commit such a big taboo of being emotional. "

"People are not plants, so how can you be ruthless?" Qin Wan asked incredulously, "I don't believe that you have never liked anyone. Come on, do you have any?"

Lie Xie looked at Qin Wan, shook his head and said with a smile, "This subordinate is still greedy for power and position, and I want to sit in the position of Superintendent of Anyou Division for a few more years, so I can't answer your mother's question."

"Ah, Lie Xian, you are really serious. If you don't say it, don't say it." Qin Wan shrugged, "By the way, Lie Xian, you can just send me here. With Xun Che here, you don't have to worry about me."

Lie Xie nodded: "Well, after I send you on the ferry to Danzhou Island, I will return to Hancheng. Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best to protect the safety of Your Majesty and His Royal Highness Qingchi."

"Thank you, Lie Xian. I never thought we'd known each other like that back then, and it's been so many years in a flash." Qin Wan said with emotion.

"Yes, it has been so many years."

"Thank you for always being with me."

"Lie Xie will always be loyal to the empress."

"Recently, I found out that you have been using the Liang Guo silver hairpin I gave you back then to tie up your hair, and you haven't changed it for so many years."

Lie Xie was stunned, and unconsciously raised his hand to touch the silver hairpin in the back of his head, and said softly, "I've been used to wearing it for so many years."

"So that's how it is. I thought An Yousi was so rich, you wouldn't have no money to buy new hairpins." Qin Wan said.

"Don't worry, ma'am, I'm just used to it, it's not that I don't have money." Lie Xi said.

"That's good," Qin Wan smiled slightly, "Let's go, let's go back to the inn, it's getting late, I guess Xun Che's comrades should let him back."

As he spoke, Qin Wan briskly walked towards the stone steps that descended from the city wall.

"Yes, ma'am." Looking at Qin Wan's back, Lie Xie raised the corners of his mouth and followed her down.
