The woman at the window watched indifferently as he coughed so violently that the chains rattled, but the sound chilled him to his bones little by little.
"What on earth did you say to Chen Ye that made him betray the city lord and let you out."
The figure collapsed on the ground, coughing out blood.
After a long time, a smile appeared on his face.
He slowly said: "I say, it's possible that Ning Yan is not dead."
His voice was hoarse and unpleasant for some reason.
The face of the woman outside the window changed drastically: "What did you say?"
"You're scared."
He laughed slowly, and his laughter echoed in the dungeon like the sound of cracking silk, making people's hair stand on end.
The woman's face turned pale: "What do I have to be afraid of?
What happened back then has nothing to do with me.
Now the city lord is mine.
What will happen even if she comes back?"
Yun Xiu closed his eyes noncommittally and stopped paying attention to her.
The woman walked out of the dungeon in a daze, the warm sunlight shining on her shoulders did not dispel the coldness on her body at all.
The maid waiting aside gently stepped forward to support her: "What's wrong, madam?"
She is now his legitimate wife, so what if she is still alive?
They still have Cheng Ning, and Cheng Ning even wants to add her presence to the names of her children.
She really can never escape that A person’s shadow?
Walking to Guiyuan, he was dressed in white and sat on a couch in the pavilion.
On the couch was a pile of ruins.
Black and white jade, with a cool voice.
"It's windy here, why don't you put on more clothes?"
She smiled and walked over.
He covered his legs with a thin quilt piled aside.
The person on the couch didn't say much, as if he was used to her movements, and he slowly turned the two warm jade stones in his hands.
After a long time, I heard his cold voice coming over: "You just went to the dungeon."
She froze, and cold sweat spread down her back: "Yes."
"What are you going to do?"
the man asked seemingly unintentionally, his eyes still looking at the chess game on the table, his profile handsome and soft.
"Just going to take a look."
She lowered her head and twisted the silk handkerchief in her hands.
He seemed not to notice her uneasiness and embarrassment, and said calmly: "The dungeon is extremely cold, so don't go there again if you have nothing to do."
She slowly breathed a sigh of relief, lowered her eyebrows and nodded, her face still colorless.
"Change into clothes and go see Cheng Ning.
He has been crying in the hot weather these past two days.
Please stay with him more."
The lukewarm voice continued.
The woman pursed her lips, bowed and walked away.
It wasn't until he walked out of the pavilion that the man in white slowly raised his head, with a pair of extremely cold eyes on his handsome face.
There seemed to be something complicated flowing in his eyes.
There are already traces of time carving on the smooth jade face.
Is she really alive?
At this time, a person walked into Guiyuan quickly, wearing a blue-gray robe that was already worn out, and there were fine wrinkles on a baby face that showed no emotion or anger.
"When the hidden guards found traces of Chen Ye in Chang'an, did they still send people to hunt him down?"

He frowned, as if he couldn't bear it.
Gu Mingxuan nodded: "No need, he has learned a lesson, just ask someone to bring him back."
The man nodded and turned around and walked away.
After taking just two steps, he heard someone behind him say: "Lu Li, tell me, is she still alive?"
In the midst of the singing birds, the fragrance of flowers, the singing of orioles and the dancing of swallows in the garden, these words seemed particularly desolate.
The desolation seems to contain a huge obsession.
The blue-gray figure froze, then turned around and said with a smile: "This must not be possible."
Gu Mingxuan threw the chess piece in his hand on the chessboard and let out a clear cry.
"But for some reason, I always have a feeling recently that Aning is still alive, and this feeling is getting stronger and stronger."
He rubbed his brows, looking old and tired.
Lu Li shook his head, but heard him say again: "That's all, people will have random thoughts when they get old.
Yuan Yin said that my obsession is too deep, so I can't let it go."
Lu Li smiled and said after a while, "I saw Madam on the way when I came here."
"Um."
"Her obsession is no less than yours.
In fact, isn't it true that people only live for fame, profit, love, or life?
If you really don't have even the slightest obsession, then it's better to end it all."
"What about you, Lu Li, what is your obsession?
Guilan Mountain has been disbanded, and you are the only one who has been following me.
What are you doing?"
Gu Mingxuan looked up at him, his eyes uncertain.
Lu Li smiled bitterly: "You don't have to doubt it, I just don't want to wander around again."
The sky is big and the earth is big, but he still has nowhere to go.
Changping Village.
Yan Ning struggled to get up, but she felt top-heavy and fell heavily onto the bed.
A familiar feeling of powerlessness came over her heart again.
She touched her wrist and realized that she must have been infected with cold.
Two furry heads popped out of the window.
"Aunt Yan, are you up?"
Qing Yatou called quietly, "Qing'er is going in."
Yuan Sheng was much more direct: "Grandpa asked you to deliver rice."
Yan Ning was surprised: "What kind of rice are you sending?"
Seeing her reply, Yuan Sheng pulled Qing'er open the door and walked in.
"Grandpa said that if you don't allow everyone to go to sea, many people will have no food to eat.
Our family even stored a lot of food before and asked you to send it to them.
Why are your faces so red?
Are you sick?"
"It's okay, is there any news?"
Yuan Sheng shook his head honestly: "Uncle Wan has been buried, and everyone is almost back."
There was no expression on his dark little face, as if death didn't surprise him much.
Yan Ning looked at him and said softly: "Yuan Sheng, are you afraid?"
Yuan Sheng shook his head, but his eyes were a little confused: "My father and mother are gone, Yuan Sheng has nothing to be afraid of."
Yan Ning sighed and touched his head, unable to say a word of comfort.
For Yuan Sheng, nothing mattered.
Life and death are never something that is out of reach.

It is so close that it seems that you can reach out and touch it.
After taking a dose of medicine, I sweated a lot.
Yan Ning took Yuan Sheng and Qing'er out to deliver rice.
Compared with the liveliness before, Changping Village became much depressed after the accident.
After walking in the village for a long time, I didn't see many people.
Yan Ning has limited strength and can only move one bag of rice at a time.
So we had to go back and forth several times.
When we arrived at Lao Wan's house for the last time, it was almost dark.
Lao Wan's house is located on the east side of the village, as close to the sea as possible, but far away from the people in the same village.
That's why he was able to go to sea in the dark at night without being noticed, and ended up with such a tragic end.
But as she gradually approached Lao Wan's house, she heard a man's voice coming from inside.
Yan Ning quickly pulled Yuan Sheng and Qing'er to hide in the grass on the roadside, covering their mouths.
Lao Wan is dead.
In addition to his wife, he is also his daughter Wan Niang.
Who is this man?
