Enter Chang Xiangsi and help Jingzhai fight

He was shocked when he heard that, grabbed my sleeve and asked, "Then what? Where is she?!"

I lied: "I don't know."

He squeezed my shoulders tightly: "You don't know?! Then how do you know her current situation?!"

I felt the pain, stretched out my hands and tried to pry his big hands apart, and said, "My lord, you don't know, I have had adventures and I have dreams. In my dreams, I can see things thousands of miles away, and occasionally I can see the past and the future, but these dreams are all fragments, they can't be connected, they are just a few scenes."

He frowned, looking suspicious, and said, "Then tell me, what did you see? I want you to tell me everything, without leaving out a single detail."

I pondered the wording and continued, "I first saw a large field of phoenix flowers, with a swing under the flowers and a little boy pushing a little girl on the swing. The little girl seemed to have a pink peach blossom on her forehead, probably a birthmark. Then the scene changed, and she was pulled away crying by several adults. Later, I saw her on the mountain with several women beside her, but she was still crying and then ran away."

As I was talking, I secretly glanced at Xuanxuan's reaction. I saw him change from being skeptical to convinced, muttering, "It's her...it's her..."

Seeing that he believed me, I made up a story: "Then she grew up. I didn't see where she went or how she grew up. She lost the peach blossom birthmark on her forehead, but I knew it was her in my dream. I saw her wearing coarse clothes, eating flowers while lying on a lounge chair in the sun. She looked very comfortable and didn't cry anymore, so I guess she lived a peaceful life."

Xuanxuan's eyes were red and filled with tears. She cried, "I said her features were so obvious, how come I couldn't find her even after searching almost all over the wilderness for so many years? It turns out that her birthmark is gone... If she is still alive, why doesn't she come to see me?!"

I sighed. I didn't know the truth. I could only guess, "Maybe she heard that you were a good person, but she was afraid of something and didn't dare to come back to see you. She just wanted to know from afar that you were doing well. If she came back, she would inevitably be involved in disputes again, and she would probably cry again."

He raised his hands to cover his face and sighed, "It's... I'm not strong enough to protect her, so she didn't dare to come back to recognize me. It's all my fault..."

Seeing his pain, I felt sorry for him and could only comfort him, "The world is so small, as long as you are still under the same sky, you will meet each other when the time is right. Don't be too sad."

Xuan wiped his eyes and said softly, "I hope you can give me good words."

Just as we both fell silent, each thinking about our own thoughts, Jun Yi hurried in, knelt on one knee, bowed, and said, "My Lord, Master Bai Haoyue is outside asking to see you."

I was shocked when I heard that, and I looked out the door involuntarily. Of course, there was no Tu Shanjing outside the door, only the bare tree in the courtyard, with its thin branches swaying in the wind.

Xuan regained his usual calmness and said, "Let him in."

Jun also followed the order and went out. Xuan looked at me and said, "When you came, he also came in a hurry. It seems that he values ​​you very much!"

My mind had already wandered and I didn't know what words to organize. I could only force a smile.

I looked forward to it, and finally saw Tu Shanjing at the end of the courtyard. He turned into the middle-aged man he was at the Fenglong banquet that day, wearing a light blue satin robe, a beige cloak on the outside, a wooden hairpin inserted diagonally on his head, and Xiao Hui, who was holding a small box, followed behind him and floated over like a gust of wind. I saw that he was wearing thin clothes, and my first reaction was that there were only grown men around him, no one to serve him attentively, and no one to give him more clothes. I saw that he seemed to have lost some weight, and I was secretly worried in my heart, wondering if he was tired from running around these days, and I felt a little distressed.

He walked hurriedly, looking down at the rocks in the courtyard. After walking around them, he looked up and saw me looking at him in the hall.

We looked at each other across half the courtyard. Both of us couldn't help but be moved, but we tried our best to restrain ourselves. Only our eyes flashed with a myriad of emotions that were difficult to hide.

For a moment, I felt that all the sounds around me faded away, the movements of the people around me froze, and only our eyes were moving in the world. It turns out that the scenes in novels and movies where only we are alive and everything around us is still are real. Where the heart goes, the road goes, regardless of wind and rain, we are all happy to see each other.

Xuanxuan saw us staring at each other for a long time, looked at me, then looked at him, and said with a smile: "What are you doing here staring at each other? Come in and sit down."

Upon hearing this, Tu Shanjing seemed to wake up from a dream. He straightened his clothes and strode into the hall.

Xuan offered him the seat, and he sat steadily on the carved wooden chair beside him, and said, "My name is Bai Haoyue. I came here to welcome my daughter and the servants. They have been well taken care of by you, and I dare not disturb them any further. I hope you can ask them to come out and follow me back."

Then he waved his hand, and Xiao Hui, who was standing behind him, holding a small box, walked up to Jun Yi in an orderly manner and handed the box to him.

Tu Shanjing added: "Here are some small gifts, a small token of my appreciation, I hope you will accept them."

Xuan looked at him with disdain, took a sip of tea slowly, and said, "Mr. Bai, you are polite. But I had a very pleasant conversation with your servant, and I wanted to keep him to chat for a few more days!"

Tu Shanjing stood up from his seat, stared at him and said, "My servant is stupid and I am afraid that he will disturb your peace and quiet. Please let him go."

Xuan placed the teacup on the table, staring at him and said, "A few days ago you offered me a thousand taels of gold to redeem me, but I refused to let you go. Now there's one more person, and your small box can't hold any more gold. Why, one more person means less money? What kind of business are you in?"

Tu Shanjing said seriously, "I think you are not short of money, so I changed something as a gift. I wonder if you are satisfied?"

Junyi opened the small box, and I saw a dazzling treasure inside. I don't know what is so dazzling. Junyi turned around and showed the small box to Xuanxuan. Xuanxuan looked inside and lost his composure. He stood up and said in surprise: "Sunlight Crystal?! One is hard to find, where did you find this box?!"

Tu Shanjing bowed slightly and replied, "I heard that your family lost several soldiers a few days ago. Treasures have a price, but life is priceless. This Sunshine Crystal can reflect the deceased's face in seven days with a trace of the deceased's soul. Just leave a memory for relatives and friends."

Xuan stared at me, and said thoughtfully, "How could a mere servant make Master Bai go to so much trouble?"
