Zhao Nianze's words only made Xu Zhilan fall into deep thought. She did not answer Zhao Nianze's question immediately, but her expression had obviously betrayed her.
She cared about her parents very much in her heart. If not, she wouldn't be in such pain, and she wouldn't still choose to beg herself not to blame her parents despite her hatred.
It was also because of her words last night that Zhao Nianze was moved, so he decided to be the bridge between them today.
Although Xu Zhilan still had many things that she couldn't figure out, it was obvious that family ties were still a thread that she could not stop cutting, so she only whispered, "I can see them without revealing their whereabouts. If there is a risk, then It’s better to disappear. Your Highness can tell them for me that I am still alive.”
It was obvious that she was very depressed when she made this decision.
Zhao Nianze only responded cooperatively.
That night, the Xu Mansion was only shrouded in gloom and mist.
Mrs. Xu didn't say anything at this time, but the two maids beside her also knew that Xu's mother was feeling uncomfortable, so the two maids could only comfort Xu's mother and make her happy at the same time.
However, how could Xu's mother be happy after her only daughter died.
But seeing that it was already getting late, Xu's mother just urged the two maids to leave the house.
However, as soon as the two maids left, Xu's mother got up and went to the inner room to find a pink coat.
The little clothes were obviously the clothes that Xu Zhilan wore when she was a child.
As soon as she saw the clothes, Xu's mother felt even more sad. The tears that had finally stopped began to flow silently down her cheeks again.
And just as she was weeping at the little clothes under the candle, a soft call "Mother" came from under the window outside the house.
Hearing that call, Xu's mother almost thought she was hallucinating.
However, when the second call sounded, she immediately stood up.
She heard clearly that the call came from the window frame on the east.
And when she pushed the window open but found nothing, she couldn't help but feel disappointed. It seemed that she was hallucinating.
Isn't her daughter already lying there by the Taihu Stone Pool today? How could she still come back?
Mrs. Xu only sighed secretly at her hallucination, and at the same time regretted that she had a big fight with her daughter last night.
If there hadn't been the dispute last night, would Alan have died? Or, when they chose Alan's son-in-law, they would have considered less external interest factors and instead focused on choosing a man who loved her, would Alan have died? Can you get rid of the entanglement of the past?
But whatever it is. Looking back now, it is obviously meaningless, after all, Alan is no longer here.
As soon as she thought of this, Xu felt that the sadness in her heart seemed to spread a little more.
However, just when she was about to wipe the tears on her cheeks, a young woman suddenly stood up slowly from the window frame. When Xu's mother saw clearly who the woman was, she almost couldn't believe it. Eye.
After being stunned for a long time, Xu's mother called out, "Alan?"
When the woman heard Xu's mother calling out her nickname, tears obviously welled up in her eyes.
She called out "Mom!"
Then Xu's mother hugged Xu Zhilan directly through a window frame and said, "Alan!"
The mother and daughter were crying together at the same time.
After Xu Zhilan was sure that Xu Zhilan was not in a dream, she invited her daughter to come into the house.
However, Xu Zhilan shook her head and refused. She whispered, "Mom, I won't follow you into the house. I came here not only to make you not sad, but also to tell you that I am still alive. In fact, I also came to say goodbye to you." .”
"Goodbye? Alan, where are you going?" Xu's mother asked anxiously.
"Take shelter from the limelight for now, mother. If you don't want your daughter to get into trouble or not be able to return home, just leave her alone. At least for this period of time, please treat me as if I'm dead. If you still insist on looking for me, then I will really It's a dead end." Xu Zhilan simply stated the seriousness of the matter.
When Mrs. Xu heard her daughter's tone being so solemn, she still couldn't help but
"How can it be a dead end? Alan, mother can send someone to protect you, your father..."
"Mom, can you just listen to my advice once and stop getting involved in this matter?" Xu Zhilan begged in a low voice.
Xu's mother wanted to say more, but looking at her daughter and thinking about how she almost lost her daughter, she finally chose to compromise.
"Okay, I won't get involved, but Alan, you should tell your mother where you are now, right? Don't worry me too much."
When Xu's mother asked, Xu Zhilan whispered, "When I settle down, I will ask someone to tell my mother my settlement address."
Seeing that Xu Zhilan said this, Mother You naturally just asked, "Who will help you arrange these things?"
"His Royal Highness Zhao Nianze will help me make arrangements."
When she heard that Zhao Nianze helped Xu Zhilan arrange a place to live, Mother You felt even more relieved.
After Xu Zhilan said goodbye to her mother, she went to Xu Yong to say goodbye.
Her eldest brother's reaction was similar to that of her mother. He also cried first, and then only said a lot of words to persuade Xu Zhilan because he was worried about Xu Zhilan's situation outside. However, after confirming that the person who helped Xu Zhilan make arrangements was Zhao Nianze, she felt relieved.
In the early morning of the next day, the sky was dimming, and only a carriage slowly drove up to a small courtyard in the west of the city.
At the same time, the wooden door of the courtyard was gently opened. At this time, a woman in a gray dress walked out of it. The woman had a cloth on her head and no decoration. She looked like the most beautiful woman in the world. Just an ordinary peasant woman.
At this time, even those who knew her might not be able to recognize her as the former crown princess.
As soon as the coachman saw her coming, he immediately put down the horse stool skillfully.
And the coachman only whispered to her, "His Royal Highness You Wang is leaving the city today, and most of the city gates will be cleared. We must leave before the gates are cleared today, otherwise we may not be able to get out."
Xu Zhilan naturally understood what the coachman meant when she heard this. She only handed over the money for the carriage and customs clearance that she had prepared to the coachman.
The coachman naturally took the fare. At the same time, after she got on the carriage, a hand suddenly stretched out from the carriage and opened the curtain for her. After she felt someone in the carriage, she couldn't help but blurt out 's direct question: "Is there anyone else in the car?"
"Yes, this man said he was also going to Anxi and begged me to take him with me. I thought I would take him with me along the way with my wife."
"Madam, don't be afraid, this man is a musician." The coachman only whispered.
Naturally, Xu Zhilan could see that the man's hands had distinct joints, but there was indeed a thin layer of calluses on the fingertips. From this look, he knew that he was a man who had never done any rough work and was indeed playing with silk strings.
Although she had a grudge, she couldn't say anything more at this time. After all, if she stayed in Shangjing for one more day, she would be in danger for one more day.
And she was not alone, she was only accompanied by the guards specially arranged by Zhao Nianze.
Although the other party is just a guard, the guard's martial arts is very strong, so if it is just an ordinary bandit, he is enough to deal with it.
So she didn't say anything, and just entered the carriage along the curtain seat that the man opened. When the guard in black beside her saw this, he immediately followed her.
However, he did not get into the carriage, but sat outside the carriage with the coachman.
After Xu Zhilan entered the car, she finally saw the appearance of the musician clearly. The musician was wearing a green shirt, carrying a guqin behind his back, with red lips and white teeth, and an elegant and handsome appearance.
But when the musician saw Xu Zhilan, his apricot eyes widened in obvious fear.
Xu Zhilan was also a little surprised to see him.
She didn't expect that she would be able to see old acquaintances when she was about to leave.
As soon as the acquaintance saw Xu Zhilan, he immediately knelt at Xu Zhilan's feet. "Madam, forgive me. I didn't know that it was Madam who went to Anxi. I will leave now."
As soon as he finished speaking, he looked like he wanted to leave, but Xu Zhilan's dress as a peasant woman made him couldn't help but look at her secretly.
While he was secretly sizing up Xu Zhilan, Xu Zhilan was also slowly sizing him up.
She didn't expect that she would bump into the male favorite she let go the day before, and that this male favorite still spent most of the time in the palace with her in the name of housekeeper.
That year.
Because of this, even though he had made many changes, he could still recognize him at a glance.
When she thought of this, she even had murderous intentions for this male favorite who knew a lot about her past and now knew about her fake death.
At the same time, the guards in black also walked in.
"Madam, what happened in the room?" the guard asked in a low voice.
After hearing the guard's words, the male favorite immediately looked at Xu Zhilan with pleading eyes.
For some reason, looking at his weak appearance, Xu Zhilan felt a little pity for him.
Therefore, when the guard looked at him as if he were looking at a dead thing, Xu Zhilan said softly, "It's nothing. We haven't left the capital yet, so don't cause trouble."
After listening to Xu Zhilan's words, the guard nodded and then lowered the curtain.
The light in the carriage dimmed again, and the male favorite just breathed a sigh of relief. ..
But when he saw Xu Zhilan, he couldn't help but feel discouraged.
Hearing that something happened to the Crown Princess yesterday, he thought he had finally escaped the Crown Princess's shadow.
After all, he finally thought that he could finally get rid of those murderous disasters and the toy of the superiors forever.
He even thought about going back to his hometown in Anxi one day, buying a house and marrying a wife and concubines.
However, in a twist of fate, he unexpectedly met her again.
At this time, he even regretted his decision to return to Anxi today.
However, there were not many carriages from Beijing to Anxi, and it was not cost-effective to hire a carriage alone. If not, he would not have waited until today to leave.
But if she fakes her death, does that mean that as long as he betrays her, he might have another chance to survive.
Then he couldn't help but look at Xu Zhilan cautiously.
However, Xu Zhilan didn't even look at him.
