Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

"My son, why?"

This is the first time I have seen Xie Xun's look of depression. Even Pei Yuanxiu was a bit surprised. He looked at the most familiar person in front of his back, and said, "Huh?"

Xie Yi's eyebrows narrowed slightly and he said, "The army will set off tomorrow. Why do you leave me here?"

I froze, looking up subconsciously to look at Pei Yuanxiu.

He left Xie Ye here?

For a long time, Xie Wei has been by his side since he started his army in Jinling. Although I know that his counsellors and generals are certainly more than the ones I saw before, the only person who really followed him was Xie Mao. Among them Probably in addition to the common goal, there are some deeper trust than others.

But now, it is near the capital city. When such an important time, he left Xie Yi in Cangzhou?

No wonder Xie Ye is coming to question.

Pei Yuanxiu was silent for a moment, but did not answer him, but said calmly, "Why should I stay in Cangzhou, don't you understand?"

"..."

Xie Yan suddenly hesitated.

And I stood behind him and heard his calm and solemn words. Although it was just a simple question, it made me understand immediately.

He is uneasy about Cangzhou.

Here, there is another "spite" that he did not have time to dig out, and it is likely to be in the Cui and Song families. Each of these people holds heavy soldiers. Cangzhou is close to the capital and constitutes him. The biggest threat is that if he fights in Beijing, something unexpected happens here, and it is likely to have a crucial impact on the battle situation.

Therefore, he left in Cangzhou the person he trusted most and the most capable around him.

But I remembered that just now I heard Song Huaiyi and Mrs. Song Shao's call to Song Xuan at the banquet because Pei Yuanxiu wanted to take Song Xuan?

I couldn't help but glance at him.

Before I wait to think about anything, Xie Yi's breath at this time slowly eased down, he was silent for a while, then said, "I, I understand."

Pei Yuanxiu sighed and said, "I thought you would understand without me saying."

After saying this, he raised his hand and patted Xie Yi's shoulder, and seemed to be going to stop the conversation. After all, in my presence, the matter was clear, and after a while, he wanted to avoid it, so he turned to the right I said, "Let's go."

I nodded, glanced at Xie Yuan, and followed him forward.

Who knows, just when we two took two or three steps, Xie Yun's voice suddenly sounded behind us: "However, I'm going to Tianjin."

"...!"

Not only me, but even the breath of Pei Yuanxiu was choked.

He stopped and looked back at Xie Xuan in amazement. I was even more surprised.

Looking back, I saw Xie Yi standing there, the sky around was mixed with black, but his eyes were extraordinarily bright, like two bright lights. Although I know that people who practice martial arts have different eyesight, they have more eyes than ordinary people. Brighter, but at this moment, the two lights in his eyes seemed to be burning, and a flame burst into the dark.

Pei Yuanxiu obviously didn't expect him to say so, and frowned subconsciously: "What are you talking about?"

Xie Yan repeated: "I want to go to Tianjin with you."

"..."

"It's OK not to enter the capital, but Tianjin, I must go."

"..."

Looking at his firm and undeniable eyes, both Pei Yuanxiu and I were silent. If it were not for my identity and Pei Yuanxiu's presence, I would probably ask directly as soon as I impulse--

why?

Why must we go to Tianjin?

Is there any reason for this?

But I didn't say, because I knew that at this time Pei Yuanxiu must have the same doubts as me, and he would definitely ask.

However, after Pei Yuanxiu watched him for a while, he calmly said, "That's all, that's fine."

"...?"

I turned to glance at him.

He said, "I'll send light back to the room first, and you will wait for me in the study."

Xie Yi quickly accepted: "Yes."

Then he turned and left.

And Pei Yuanxiu turned to face me and said softly, "Let's go, the wind is strong."

I didn't say anything, nodded and followed him. After returning to the room, he was not in a hurry to leave immediately. He also ordered the girl to send soup and dessert to watch me eat, and then told him to leave again. I stood at the door and looked at him. The back disappeared on the path in the garden, and the direction to go was naturally the study.

Xie Yan must go to Tianjin?

This incident surprised me, and obviously, it was also unexpected by Pei Yuanxiu.

If this is his purpose, it obviously does not make sense, because if a person like Pei Yuanxiu wants to accept a person to himself, it must be thoroughly investigated. Xie Ting must have been thoroughly penetrated by him to have the status today. Their goals are the same, which is obviously directed at the Jingshi, but when they go to Tianjin, it is clear that Xie Yan did not mention it in advance, that is, it has nothing to do with their cooperation.

However, it is impossible for a person like Xie Xun to prioritize his priorities. When he goes to Tianjin, he must have his reasons, and he can convince Pei Yuanxiu.

I stood at the door and felt a colder wind blowing my hands and feet cold. I flinched and finally returned to the room. The room was warm, but there was a little bit of seepage from my chest. The coolness makes me unable to calm down.

Tianjin, that is already the last city from Beijing.

It can even be said that it is Pei Yuanzhang's last barrier.

Why has n’t he moved a little until now? I ca n’t see any of Wang Shi ’s soldiers and no news from Beijing. Does he really have to wait for Pei Yuanxiu ’s soldiers and horses to arrive in Beijing, and when the soldiers are under the city, they will A little reaction?

Impossible, he is a man who never fights against uncertainty, or does not even do things with uncertainty.

There must be a reason for him to do this.

But no matter what I think, I probably can't figure out what he wants to do.

After listening to the north wind for one night, I ushered in the dim dreams, the sun rising the next day.

Probably because the night's wind had blown away the dark clouds in the sky. It was rare to encounter such good weather on the day of departure. Even the servant girls in the garden smiled a little.

And to make them easy, of course, we should also leave.

After having breakfast, Mrs. Huazhu and Mrs. Song came to accompany me downstairs. This young lady got along well with me, so when I left, she showed some reluctance to come. After saying a few words of goodbye, he looked aside—

"Where's Zhang Taijun?"

Mrs. Song said quietly: "The old man was angry all night last night and can't get up today."

"Oh? Why?"

"The father-in-law promised to take her to the capital before, but now again--"

"Oh……"

"Coupled with the uncle leaving, the old man is even more angry."

"So this is ah……"

I nodded.

Song Huaiyi was anxious to attack Cangzhou City before, naturally to send his mother, who had been sick, to Beijing City as soon as possible, but the situation is not clear, and he himself has not found the "spite" who is eating and eating, and rushing to Beijing City is obviously dangerous. Besides, Pei Yuanxiu did not fully trust the two families, nor would they let them all go along with him, and bring Song Xuan and Cui Jiancheng with him. On the one hand, he expressed his trust in the two, and indeed there were people who needed them. Necessary; Secondly, the two men stayed with him, which was more or less a hostage.

As a parent, of course, Song Huaiyi may not be willing to put his son in danger, but he has already reached this point, and he must be clear-cut.

I think Cui Tai certainly thinks so too.

However, no matter which position Zhang Laotaijun stood on, he would not want this grandson, whom he loves the most, to follow the people and go north to experience the battle of life and death.

I was silent for a while, and then said with concern: "Is she okay? Unfortunately, time is running out, and I have no time to visit her old man."

Mrs. Song smiled: "Miss Yan, you're welcome. In fact, it's not far from the capital here. When the events of Pei Gongzi are certain, the grandfather will immediately send the old lady to the capital. day."

I smiled, "Yeah."

At this time, a servant came over to urge, we should go out.

I was accompanied by them all the way out. When I came to the door, I saw more cars and horses parked outside the gate than when I came, and I happened to see Han Ruoshi being supported by Xiao Lian on the carriage.

She still has to go.

But what about Han Zitong?

I looked around, but I didn't see her. Instead, I saw Xie Ye, who rode on a horse with a high head and looked dignifiedly to the north.

It seems that he also convinced Pei Yuanxiu.

Although I still have a lot of doubts in my heart, I still can't solve it at this time. After all, Cangzhou is too close to Tianjin. The answer I want should be in front of me in two days.

At this time, Pei Yuanxiu came to me and said, "How are you today?"

He is asking my body.

I just saw the doctor marching along with the army. Naturally, he was fully prepared and said lightly, "I'm fine."

He also urged: "If you have any discomfort on the road, tell me."

"Ok."

"Okay, get in the car."

I was assisted by Huazhu and walked to a carriage. As soon as I opened the curtain, I unexpectedly saw that there was a person sitting there. The curtain was lifted up and the sun shone in. The pair of bright ones were described quite clearly. People's eyebrows are looking at me with a buzz.

Han Zitong?

Is she already sitting in this carriage?

I froze for a moment, she looked at me without a word, and I helped Huazhu to slowly get on the carriage.
