"Miss, the sky is already dark. Let's hurry up.”Si 'er said softly, her tone filled with indescribable emotions.
"Alright. Si 'er, are you alright?" Xia Wan asked with concern, as if she didn't care about Si 'er's skills just now.
"I'm fine." Si 'er smiled.
Ganyang didn't say anything and looked at Si 'er with a complicated expression. A servant girl actually had such good skills. Who could she be? How could Sister Xia Wan not notice? Was she pretending? Ganyang shook his head gloomily. Seeing that Xia Wan and Si 'er had already gone far away, he flung the reins of his horse and followed them.
"Wait for me!"
The Empress Dowager, who had returned to the palace, found out that the three of them had left the capital. The Empress Dowager was so angry that she flew into a rage and trembled as she sat on the gorgeous chair.
"That Xia Wan is too impudent! First, you hurt our Yang 'er at the banquet, and now you're taking Yang' er out of the capital. What do you mean by looking for a teacher? It's too ridiculous!”Empress Dowager Yi slammed the table, her wrinkled face filled with endless anger.
"Mother, don't be angry. Ganyang is about to break through now. It's good to let her try.”Mo Zhiqi poured a cup of tea for Empress Dowager Yi and handed it over.
"Qi 'er! Aijia already told you not to let her fight, not to let her fight, but now that this matter has happened, if anything happens to Yang 'er, aijia will ask you!”
"Alright, alright, it's all zhen's fault. Mother, don't be angry.”Mo Zhiqi said helplessly.
"Ganyang lost her father when she was young, and her mother was assassinated. Her heart is more fragile and delicate than others, and I don't want her to suffer!”Empress Dowager Yi thought of Ganyang's past and tears welled up in her eyes.
"Mother, don't think about the sad things of the past. "Empress Qin Ya also comforted him.
"Qi 'er, you have to send some people to follow them. Don't let anything happen to them.”
"Your son has already sent a few people over.”
Empress Dowager Yi slowly released Mo Zhiqi's hand and felt a little more at ease."That's good, that's good."
"Oh right, who is Xia Wan?"
"Oh, that's General Xia Yi's daughter.”
"Xia Yi? That all-powerful and famous general?”Empress Dowager Yi thought for a moment." Doesn't his daughter not know how to fight? Why?”
"Your son asked Xia Yi, but he didn't know either. He also said that his daughter's temperament had changed a lot since she fell on her head last time, but her personality hadn't changed. She was still kind and sensible.”
"Is she Ninth Brother's future princess consort?" Empress Dowager Yi took a sip of tea.
"Yes, those two children are quite compatible.”When Mo Zhiqi thought of Mo Lingyun and Xia Wan standing together, he couldn't help but smile.
"Is he that outstanding? She's worthy of our Ninth Brother." Empress Dowager Yi asked suspiciously.
"Yes, that girl has an inexplicable aura that makes people feel comfortable. Her speech and behavior are very cultured, polite, and straightforward. She's a rare good woman.”Qin Ya smiled and poured tea for Empress Dowager Yi. She was very satisfied with Xia Wan.
"Oh? Then I will have to see her one day. Of course, the premise is that she must bring Ganyang back unscathed. Otherwise, don't blame me for being heartless!”
"Mother. Don't worry, Ganyang can protect himself. Besides, Xia Wan is here, so don't worry.”Mo Zhiqi patted Empress Dowager Yi's hand, indicating that she could rest assured.
Empress Dowager Yi nodded, her weathered face filled with worry.
The moonlight tonight was exceptionally bright, covering the earth brightly. The stars in the sky were difficult to see in the 21st century. Xia Wan propped her head on the windowsill of a clean inn room, staring at the starry night sky in a daze.
" It's so beautiful…" Xia Wan sighed softly. It was rare to see the starry sky so clearly in the past.
" Knock, knock, knock…" Someone knocked on the door.
"Big sister."
"Miss."
Two familiar voices sounded. Xia Wan did not move and continued to look outside, allowing the breeze to blow her long hair. She only replied softly.
"Come in."
Following the sound of the door closing, light footsteps approached Xia Wan.
"Sister, what are you looking at?”Ganyang moved a stool and sat beside Xia Wan. Following her gaze, he saw a vast sea of stars.
Si 'er picked up the teapot on the table and opened the lid. A gust of hot air rushed into her nose along with the fragrance of the tea. He poured two full cups of tea and walked over to pass them to them.
"Si 'er, bring a stool over and sit down.”Xia Wan took the teacup and smiled. Si 'er nodded and brought a stool over to sit beside Xia Wan.
"Sister Si 'er, let me pour you a cup of tea.”Ganyang placed the teacup on the windowsill and stood up.
"No need, Qian…Yang." Si 'er was still not used to calling the princess by her name. When she said that, she paused for a moment." I'm not thirsty.”
"Alright then." Ganyang sat back down and took a sip of tea.
"Si 'er, do you think the night sky is beautiful?”Xia Wan suddenly asked, her tone cold.
"Of course, but this is only temporary.”Si 'er nodded, but then shook her head.
"Yes, no matter how beautiful the night sky is, it's only a fleeting beauty. When will we meet again? Sometimes, people were like that epiphyllum. When the most beautiful thing was revealed, only that numb shell would be left in the future. They would only enjoy the praise that numbed their nerves. Little did they know that the hunter's sharp eyes had never left... When the time came, even the heartbeat would become especially precious.”
Xia Wan said softly, as if she was talking to Ganyang and Si 'er, but also as if she was mumbling to herself.
She was a difficult person to see through.
Si 'er looked at Xia Wan as this thought appeared in her mind.
Sometimes she was as innocent as a young girl in her prime, sometimes she was as transparent as a hermit, and sometimes she was as bloodthirsty as the Grim Reaper with a butcher knife in her hand. She was so ever-changing, like a mystery. However, no matter what she did, he would be loyal to her until his death…
"Right, Si 'er, do you mind if I ask you some questions?”Xia Wan turned around and looked at Si 'er with a faint smile on her face.
Si 'er lowered her eyes. It was time to confess. After all, paper couldn't hide fire…
"I won't."
"Alright, I'll be straightforward." Xia Wan was very direct and did not beat around the bush.
" But..." Si 'er suddenly spoke with a hesitant expression," I hope you and Ganyang won't remember what I'm going to say next and pretend it never happened."”
"Alright." Xia Wan and Ganyang nodded.
"Si 'er, who are you?”Xia Wan's question was extremely straightforward. It was just a few words, but it contained countless questions.
"Miss, you should be asking who you are, right?" Si 'er sighed softly.”
"What do you mean?" Xia Wan was stunned when she heard Si 'er's words.
"To be honest, I'm not a maid, I'm the second head of the Faraway Moon Palace…"
