He ​​looked at the dimly lit place and the empty place.

A lot of people came to the stall just now. Some were playing with the birds, and some were asking the boss about the price. They walked away and came again, and none of them was Meng Tangan.

There was constant laughter and buzzing all around. Xie Xun felt that they were noisy and could not hear a word clearly. The whole world suddenly became completely silent!

The scene is distorted and the vision is blurred.

The candy figure held firmly in the hand is crystal clear, as if it is a shimmer.

"...Ann."

He belatedly said the unfinished name in a very soft voice.

When the secret guards of Xu Beihou Mansion were dispatched to look for someone, the originally lively atmosphere was filled with surprise!

"What happened?"

"I don't know either."

"Suddenly so many people came..."

"Master Hou, there are too many people at the Lantern Festival, and the terrain of Chang'an City is complicated. Finding people is like looking for a needle in a haystack!" said the secret guard.

Xie Xun looked at Tangren's smiling face, his expression extremely calm, and suddenly asked: "Where is the nearest river here?"

"Go to Qingjiang!"

…

Outside Chang'an City, a small county town.

Pei Yanzhi made many inquiries and finally found the buyer who had taken away the little princess.

He was a man with a big belly. He sighed and cursed.

"I feel unlucky when I think about this! The child ran away halfway. There was a little boy who wanted to save her, but I kicked him into the river. As for the little girl, an official wanted to leave.

!"

Pei Yanzhi rushed over in a weathered state and frowned: "Where is she now?"

"How do I know this? That official thief is rich. I heard he is from the Lin family in the capital. The young master is called Lin Zhengyuan!"

The man vowed: "I remember clearly that the thief was the one who paid ten times the money to take the girl away! He seemed to have given him a name, what was it called?"

"Meng...Meng what..."

Pei Yanzhi suddenly froze: "Meng Tang'an!"

"Yes! It's her!" The pot-bellied man looked at Pei Yanzhi in disbelief.

It’s the people who are around you when you go around!

Pei Yanzhi rushed out, immediately got on his horse, galloped through the mountains and forests, and headed straight for Chang'an City!

"Hey, why did you leave just now..."

The cold wind howled, the mountain road was dark, and Pei Yanzhi had an indescribable bad feeling lingering in his heart.

He must see Meng Tangan immediately!

…

The Shangqingjiang River runs through the entire Chang'an City and connects to the mountains. It is the most important water channel in Kyoto.

The moonlight is melting, far away from the hustle and bustle of the crowd, adding to the loneliness of autumn.

The river is vast and there is no end in sight. From a distance, you can see the line of water and sky. The man is standing on the shore with his back to them.

The snow-white skirt was lifted up by the cold wind, and it curved gracefully. The back was weak and slender, as if it would be swallowed by the vast river at any time!

Xie Xun felt dizzy after just one glance. He staggered, but walked forward without any pause!

The man also heard the sound, turned around, waved his hand, and said with a bright smile: "You are here."

"Why did you accidentally walk so far?"

Xie Xun locked his eyes on Meng Tang'an, staring closely at the distance between her and the river. Veins popped up on the back of his hands, but he always held the candy man firmly. He approached step by step and stretched out his hand to her, with a loud voice.

Wen Wen: "Have had enough fun at the lantern festival? Come home with me."

Xie Xun even found an excuse for Meng Tangan.

All she had to do was step down on the steps laid by his broken bones.

Just pretend nothing happened.

"Don't come here!"

Meng Tang'an took a step back, the cold river water wet the hem of his skirt, and his eyes swept over the secret guard beside him.

Xie Xun watched her retreat, and that step was in his heart. The approaching movement suddenly froze, and her legs took root and stopped in place!

The feeling of suffocation was like an invisible hand pinching the heart, and the voice in the throat was temporarily lost. After opening the mouth several times, a slight trembling sound came out.

"Okay, I won't go there...it's dangerous along the river, don't scare me, let's talk slowly if we have anything to say."

"You tell them all to stand down."

"Back off!" He immediately gave the order without hesitation.

The secret guard slowly retreated far away, Xie Xun's eyes never left Meng Tang'an, and he felt nothing at all when the Jiang wind hit his face.

Xie Xun tried his best to sound gentle: "They are all gone, don't worry."

"Look, I've bought you the candy man, and it's you who drew the candy man. The man who drew the candy man is a grandpa. What do you think of his craftsmanship? Is the painting very good? Our Tangtang looks better everywhere, and the real person is better than the candy.

The painting looks ten thousand times better."

He showed her the candy man as if he was taking credit for it, with a clear smile and a low and relaxed tone: "Can you see clearly while standing there? Come over a little bit."

Meng Tang listened to him quietly, letting the river water wet the hem of his skirt, and did not move. He paused for a moment on the candy figure in Xie Xun's hand, and then moved away smoothly.

"I don't want to eat candy anymore."

"Then what do you want? I'll buy it for you!"

Almost the next second after she spoke, she spoke urgently with a messy breathing sound.

"Xie Xun." She asked, "Don't you understand yet?"

"Tangtang, can you come here first? Don't stand there, it's too dangerous."

Xie Xun tried his best to calm down, but once it came to her, he really couldn't calm down. He almost used up all the patience in his life to coax people, and his voice shook so much.

"I want to leave Chang'an City." There was a distance between them. It was dark and the wind was too strong. She couldn't see Xie Xun's face clearly and said directly.

Xie Xun was startled for a moment, "Why are you in such a hurry? Didn't we make an appointment? When the Chang'an incident is over, we will go to Jiangnan..."

Halfway through the words, she laughed, her throat was hard, and every word she spoke felt like she was swallowing a razor blade alive, and she continued to speak even though her blood was dripping. Her tone was pretending to be gentle, so as not to put any pressure on her.

"It doesn't matter, I will listen to you. If you think the capital is boring, I will accompany you wherever you go. In fact, there are many places we have never been to except Jiangnan. Have you ever seen the desert——"

"I don't want to go with you!"

Meng Tang'an interrupted him and had no patience to listen any more: "Don't you know? Promises are made without counting."

Xie Xun paused briefly, as if he didn't understand what she meant.

"Did I make you angry? I must have made you angry. I'm sorry. Tell me what I did wrong and I will correct it." He suddenly thought of something, anxious and at a loss, "Yes, it's because of the Lin family

Is it? They are just exiled, there is no fear for their lives! I...I can bring Lin Zhengyuan over and let you see him! Don't be angry, don't make fun of yourself, come here quickly."

My voice almost choked at the end.

From the moment his words became incoherent, he completely lost.

"Xie Xun, is it fun to deceive yourself and others?" Meng Tangan saw his red eyes, "Even without Lin Zhengyuan, I would not stay."

"You obviously love me too."

"It's just an illusion. Why do you have such a short memory and get deceived again and again?"
