Chapter 119.1
Before leaving, Wei Shao said he was actually impatient to ride in the carriage because it was slow and stuffy. From Jinyang, one must
go through Le Ping County, the ancient Zhao State of Julu, and Anping County in Jizhou, then arrive in Xindu. It will take ten days, and Wei Shao fears that she will be bored in the carriage alone. Hence, he will accompany her. He said it as if he was very reluctant to do so.
Xiao Qiao was touched, yet she shook her head decisively: Husband does not need to condescend to me. You are better off riding as you wish. I can not be bored if Chun Niang sits with me. She meant what she said. If she rode with Chun Niang in the carriage, she saved her energy and would be comfortable.
If she sat with him. . .
There was no need to mention that she had to serve the master all the way, and Xiao Qiao could imagine the indescribable things that would happen on the way. She does not want to.
Wei Shaos gaze is sincere: For Man Mans sake, its okay for me to suffer a little. And so it was happily decided.
The big carriage was already waiting outside the gate. Naturally, Chun Niang and the other attendant sat together in another carriage.
Xiao Qiao climbed the carriage and sat, looking through the window at Wei Shao and Li Chong, Zhang Jian, and Wei Liang, who had come to see him off, saying goodbye.
Gongsun Yang had already left for Xindu earlier. Li Chong, Zhang Jian, Wei Liang, and others remained here.
After Xiao Qiao waited for a while, Wei Shao finally turned around and got into the carriage: Have you been waiting long?
Xiao Qiao nodded: Mmm.
Wei Shao smiled, sat down, put his arm around her, then ordered the carriage to leave. With the sound of Wei Shao, the carriage moved forward, taking Xiao Qiao with it, leaving the city where she had lived for half a year.
It seemed that all things that happened in this city were coming to an end.
After Su E Huang wrote a statement about her sins in blood, she returned to Lunu last night.
The carriage drove out of the eastern city gate, leaving the city behind. Xiao Qiao leaned in Wei Shaos arms and did not look back.
She was a person who took things as they came. If you live in a place for a long time, more or less, you will develop some feelings. But for this city, she does not feel the slightest attachment. She only wants to leave quickly.
A line of carriages and horses slowly traveled toward Lunu, the capital of Zhongshan State. This line of carriages and horses traveled brightly to the south, but now it is returning north, gloomy.
The accompanying maids and servants were quiet, their faces even as if they had lost their lives. They were all slaves and attendants of Miss Su, the wife of Zuo Feng Yi, who depended on Miss Su for their livelihood.
She was their heaven.
Everyone knows that the daughter of the Su family is born with talent and has a noble destiny.
Extremely noble, to what extent- it was unknown.
They are convinced and devoted, following her all the way from north to south. From Miss Sus marriage to Luoyang more than ten years ago until now.
Last month, when they departed from Lunu to the south, they were still thrilled beyond belief. Madam, who lived in seclusion in Lunu for half a year, was finally heading to Luoyang.
When Madam Yulou of Luoyang was at her most beautiful moment, they still remember the glory and popularity they enjoyed. Even to this day, everyone still mentions it with honor.
Madam then, once so close to the verdict.
Unexpectedly, Liu Li died, and Madam was widowed. However, even so, they did not lose faith because their Madam was still there.
No matter what obstacles they encounter, as long as they see her raise her chin and be proud as a queen, they will willingly bow down at her feet. Their confidence was swollen once again, full of strength.
That day, their beautiful dream shattered overnight. Everyones eyes were dark and gray. Ten days later, on the way to Zhongshan, the group began to falter.
The seeds of doubt about the Madams legendary extremely noble destiny were slowly breeding and spreading. No one knows what happened to her during the last days of her stay in Jinyang. But it is said that the Madam was cruelly punished by the Marquis of Yan, Wei Shao because she had offended him.
Although it was unknown what punishment she received, rumors had begun to spread secretly. Madam was disfigured!
Everyone knew what this meant to a noblewoman who had made her name in Luoyang for her beauty.
Furthermore, after Madam left Jinyang that night in a carriage with her head covered, she had not shown her face since then. The only way to get information is to rely on Old Maid Su beside her.
The carriage she was in also had its doors and windows shut tightly, emitting a sullen dead air. It is like a coffin covered with a beautiful appearance, uncomfortable to the eyes, even in the daylight. They began to doubt, worry, and fear.
If this is true, then how about their future?
A few days ago, Old Maid Su severely punished the two servant girls she had caught talking about Madam behind her back. But still, the rumors were unstoppable.
On this day, they were resting in Changshan County. It was a three-day break. Madam stayed in the post house and still did not show her face.
Three days later, when the group became frightened, Madam, who had not shown herself for many days, suddenly appeared in front of them.
When they saw her, they were all stunned. Madam Yulou had a high bun and wore fancy clothes. Her makeup was beautiful, as usual. On her face, she wore a mask in the shape of a butterfly wing. The butterfly mask was made of red gold thread, laced with precious stones, incomparably exquisite. It crossed the middle of her face, revealing her beautiful eyes and red lips but covering the nose.
Not only did it not spoil her appearance but added a touch of mystery.
Her two cold eyes swept from the top of the butterfly mask to all her servants, who shivered and lowered their heads.
Go to Luoyang. Old Maid Su, at her side, said so.
