But now that I lowered my eyes, my charm has been restrained.

Yang Jian looked away and put the longevity lock back into her palm, "That's all?"

"Well. Xiao Cong asked about Changming Lock that night, and I sweared him, saying that Changming Lock had been snatched away by Xihu and he had never come again. Later, Your Highness sent someone to save me from the trap, and went south-" Garo hesitated for a moment and expressed his doubts in his heart, "Actually, since Xiao Cong brought up Changming Lock, he would definitely speak more deeply when he arrived at the capital of Xiliang. Then he found out the reason for his love, and the truth might be clear. Your Highness sent someone to save me... do you have other plans?"

Yang Jian narrowed his eyes, "What I mean, is it troublesome to save you?"

"No, no, your highness misunderstood!" Garo quickly waved his hand to explain, "I have no intention of offending Your Highness. I am indeed deeply grateful for your help."

——But she really didn’t understand Yang Jian’s intention. She had already agreed to send her deep into Xiliang to find out the situation, but she sent someone to save her back halfway, which made her almost helpless. Although this made her grateful, she always felt that Yang Jian’s rebellion this time was unpredictable.

Yang Jian turned his back and did not pursue the matter. He just said, "Go back to the capital and find out the origin of the Longevity Lock."

Gala should be respectful.

"No need to be grateful. I save you just for business. After all... I will revenge." Yang Jian suddenly turned his head and looked at Gala and said slowly, "Do you think I will save you kindly?"

...

Gala shrank his shoulders and felt quite innocent.

There was a moment when she almost thought that Yang Jian had sympathy and kindly saved her. Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain his rebelliousness.

Now it seems that he has other plans.

This is also very good.

Farewell to Mr. Su, the horse galloped and wandered around the night.

He arrived in Yezhou three days later, not far from the capital.

That night, she stayed in the inn, adjacent to the downtown area. After a few days of speeding, Gala had no appetite. When he saw a candied shop opposite, he became greedy. She lived next to Yang Jian and Yu Shiji. She knew that the guards of Jianzhang Palace were also close, so there was no need to worry. Before the shop closed, she found some broken silver to buy some back.

The shop was equipped with candied fruits and pastries, and they were all very well prepared. The candied fruits were sweet and the pastries were fragrant and soft. After working hard all day, they could comfort their hunger. Gala was idle, so he simply picked some of them and returned with a full load.

He held her food alone with his right hand and gave it to Yu Shiji and Yang Jian with two servings in his left hand.

Yu Shiji is easy to talk about, but Yang Jian has a tough face and a bad temper. He has never liked her. It might be boring to send her rashly, but it is too rude to not give her away, and I would be sorry for him to take care of her on the way...

Why would you please ask Yu Shiji to send it to her?

Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly realized something was wrong. Gala looked up and saw the person approaching from the side, and the smile on his lips suddenly froze.

The lights were just around the corner, the night market was just around the door, and there was a lively restaurant next to the inn. Several officials walked out of it and were walking towards it. The person guarded in the middle was gentle and his face was smiling. The familiar outline was not Li Bing!

The unexpected reunion caught Gala off guard.

Li Bing obviously did not expect to see her here. Her original decent smile froze and her eyes stuck to Gala for a moment. The officials around him noticed the abnormality and looked at Gala like this, and saw that it was a very beautiful girl, each showing a hidden smile.

Garo felt disgust inexplicably, retracted his gaze and walked straight towards the inn.

Such a calm and gentle atmosphere surprised the officials.

Li Bing was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly explained to everyone, said goodbye randomly, and then strode into the inn.

The inn business in the downtown city is booming. It’s time to have a free meal. There is a place to drink tea and sell fruits on the right side of the hall. People come and go, and it’s a little noisy.

Gala walked quite quickly and had already reached the stairs. He was talking because he was touching Yu Shiji.

Li Bing pushed away the idle man separated in the middle and caught up in three or two steps, "Gala!"

Gala's face was not very good-looking and turned a deaf ear. However, Yu Shiji looked over when he heard this, and when he saw him, he looked at him suspiciously.

Li Bing still remembers the expression of Gala in Xuejia Lane that day. When she saw her avoiding her, she just thought it was sad and looked at Gala tightly, "How could you be here? I have something to tell you, can you go to the sect room over there for a cup of tea?" Seeing Gala turn aside, she felt a little embarrassed, and then said, "Things happened suddenly that day, I had unspeakable suffering. I was afraid that someone would notice it, so I could only leave first, without explanation. Later, I went to Xuejia Lane and didn't see you. I asked someone to go to Zun Mansion to inquire, and there was no..."

"Who are you?" Yu Shiji saw that Gala was unhappy and interrupted.

Li Bing bowed and looked at Yu Shiji's face. As he returned to Beijing, everyone dressed up in an ordinary manner from Yang Jian to his relatives. Yu Shiji was wearing a brocade shirt and was not wearing a sword around his waist, but the martial arts practitioners had a tough aura, which was different from others. Judging from his expression, he was obviously quite hostile.

He looked at it for a moment and decided to report his identity, "Li Bing, Ministry of Revenue and Ministry of Warehouse."

"I haven't heard of it." Yu Shiji took the first half of the step, "What's the matter with my cousin?"

"I am Gala... an old friend." Li Bing turned sideways and made way out of the stairs and said, "Can you go to the private room there?"

Gala sneered coldly, turned his head, looking strange and alienated.

On the way back to Beijing, Gala thought about his future plans, his father's whereabouts, his father's family's situation, and the secret of the long-lived lock are all worrying. When he thinks about the old things in Huainan, how could he not remember Li Bing?

The discouragement that day was clearly imprinted in my memory. The more beautiful and warm the scenery I visited together in previous years, the deep and cold the disappointment that broke the truth that day was.

I was once the one who admired and trusted in my prime. It was the most unforgettable scenery in the spring of Huainan. Even if I decided to forget it when I tore up the letter, how could I really not care?

Especially when she was surrounded by enemies and had no support, he turned around and married someone else, and the feeling of turning upside down was unforgettable.

Gala looked at Li Bing and tried his best to calm his voice, "It's indeed an old friend."

"Previously in Huainan, Lord Yao was a disciple of my father outside of me and had close contacts," she said.

Li Bing looked embarrassed and immediately said, "Gala, I have a last resort. The situation in the capital..." He looked at Yu Shiji, and did not want to reveal it in front of outsiders, and said, "Let's go there to drink tea and talk in detail, okay?"

“No need.”

"Gala, I have never forgotten any of the past. It is not my intention to marry Xu Lanzhu."

"But you married her after all, didn't you? Is someone holding a knife around your neck and forcing you to marry her?" Garo sneered.

The person in front of him was as handsome as before, but once he remembered the curtain he had fallen down that day, the steps were floating and heavy, and the dryness in his throat spread. Gala tried his best to restrain his slight tremor and said, "Dugu Xin has a high position and great power, and he will definitely give you a bright future. Let's leave."

After saying that, he turned around and hurried up the stairs.

"Gala!" Li Bing reached out to stop her, but was blocked by Yu Shiji.

Yu Shiji's face was gloomy. When Galuo came upstairs safely, he bowed to Li Bing and turned around to leave. However, the guess and anger in his heart were difficult to suppress. He suddenly turned around and his palms were heavily slapped on Li Bing's shoulder, "What do you mean just now?"

Li Bing hated his obstruction and said coldly: "What do you have to do with you?"

Yu Shiji was worried about Gala and stopped dealing with him. He said viciously: "If you bully her, I will never forgive you!"

Li Bing seemed to have never heard of it, just looking at the end of the stairs.

Gala hurriedly turned the stairs and walked quickly towards the guest room, only to feel that the corridor was extremely long.

The memories of deliberately forgotten swept overwhelmingly. The sadness that had not been vented that day was ready to move. After a long time of reminiscing, it became more and more sad. She buried her head and suddenly noticed that she bumped into something. When she looked up, Yang Jian was looking down at her outside the hazy mist.

Gala's heart was full of old things, and he even forgot his awe of Yang Jian, and he bowed hastily and wanted to walk away.

Yang Jian reached out his hand, held her arm, and looked into it with his eyes.

Just now, he accidentally looked out of the window and saw her picking candied fruit at the shop opposite, poking the bamboo sticks and tasting them one by one. His concentration and greedy look made him laugh unconsciously.

Who knew that in a blink of an eye, it turned out to be like this?

The steps were rushed, the expression was flustered, the tears were rippling, and the slightest bit of compulsory calmness was not like the usual ones.

It makes people worry.

Gala was in a state of confusion, and was embarrassed by him. He hurriedly lowered his head to wipe his tears and tried to break away from his hand. But he was tightly clamped. Gala wanted to ask him to let go, but his throat was choked, and he might cry out as soon as he opened his mouth. In a hurry, without thinking, he looked at Yang Jian for a moment, and suddenly leaned over and bit his hand.

Yang Jian was slightly surprised and subconsciously let go.

Gala took the opportunity to regain his arm and hurried away.

The back of his hand was warm and wet. Yang Jian raised his hand and saw her tears on the back of his hand. He looked at her back and turned his head to see Yu Shiji hurriedly chase after him.

Seeing Yang Jian, Yu Shiji stopped and bowed with his fists, "Your Highness."

"What's going on?" Yang Jian frowned and held his hands behind his back.

Yu Shiji hesitated and reported truthfully: "Miss Dugu met an old friend."

"who?"

"Li Bing, Ministry of Revenue and Revenue."

Yang Jian frowned deeper and deeper. He was trapped in Huainan for several years and was as strong as a feud with the Gao family. Of course, Yang Jian knew Li Bing. Later, he sent someone to investigate the personnel and affairs related to Gala, and also knew that the Gao family intended to grant her to Li Bing, but Li Bing immediately married Dugu Xin's daughter after being defeated in Huyang Pass. Even Pei Yun reported the incident that Gala detoured Xuejia Lane and ran into Li Bing and Dugu Xin's daughter, which happened.

I used to be the top priority of state affairs and never paid attention to it. Now, when I think about it, I understand it immediately.

Yang Jian looked at Gala's tightly closed door.

The little girl in the spring scenery of Huainan is unfamiliar with the world, she is so delicate and innocent, and her eyebrows are curling, like flowers blooming.

But now I feel tears in my eyes.

This is somewhat distressing.

He stood for a moment, his eyes slightly darkened.

Li Bing walked in the alley in a daze. There was no one around, only the wind was rustling. Suddenly, the light in front of him was dark and someone maliciously blocked the way. He was already angry and angry when he saw this. He scolded the word "bastard" and was punched by someone in the chest. He was immediately angry, raised his head viciously, and was stunned when he saw that face clearly-

"Your Highness?"

Li Bing was extremely surprised. He knelt on the ground after realizing it, and apologized for fear. "I pay homage to Your Highness! I don't know where Your Highness is coming. Please forgive me for your crime."

"Li Bing." Yang Jian looked at him coldly, "How could you be here?"

"I was ordered to follow Mr. Nie to patrol various departments and understand the people in Wenbei."

"Oh?" Yang Jian stared at him and ordered, "Look up."

Li Bing followed the words and looked up at Yang Jian's gaze, and investigated it coldly. He subconsciously dodged his eyes, "I am guilty, but I am afraid."

Yang Jian said nothing, tucked his palm with an iron fan and slowly examined it.
