Chapter 20

What left the palace was just a body, an empty shell that lost its heart and emotion.With shackles on, Liu'er numbly followed the jailer, walking forward with difficulty.

I didn't close my eyes last night, and the fingers that kept playing the strings were already bruised.The guzheng was already stained with blood, and together with the blood, there was all Liu Er's love.

The simplest expectation has resulted in the greatest harm. When Xiao Yun made a decision, he didn't even have the slightest nostalgia. If that's the case, let's throw away his heart. No one wants it, so what's the use of keeping it.If you hold it out, it's just for people to spoil it at will. It's better to throw it away yourself, and you won't feel sad again.

Liu'er was taken into the prison car and huddled in the corner of the car.The car babbled on the street, attracting people to watch.

"Who is this?"

"It seems to be going into exile."

"It's so pretty."

"So indifferent, you see, he has no expression at all."

All kinds of eyes, all kinds of voices, but Liu'er seems to have no feeling at all, her body shakes with the car, but her expression remains unchanged, without any emotion.

There is nothing more sad than death, and she embraced too good hopes. Once she was exiled, everything would be for naught.Abandoned by Xiao Yun, Liu'er lost all desire for the future.The current him doesn't even have the thought of seeking death. A person who has lost his soul, how can he think about the issue of life and death.

In the middle of the night, Liu'er was lying among the firewood.It was the night of the full moon, and the bright moonlight poured down from the window, illuminating Liu'er's pale face, and her pair of beautiful eyes were expressionless.

"Why is the emperor willing to exile such a beautiful person to such a place?"

"Who knows, being with you is like being with a tiger, and once you become the emperor, what kind of beauty do you want? If you get tired of looking at this face, you will change it."

The guards at the gate chatted. In the silent night, their voices were exceptionally clear, and every word reached Liu'er's ears.A wave flashed in the originally calm eyes, and he stretched out his hand to caress his scratched face, "So I'm already tired of watching it."

In the palace, Xiao Yun stood outside the courtyard where Lian Er used to live, the silver moonlight reflected the sadness on his face deeper, Liu Er was gone, Lian Er was also exiled to such a far place by himself, even the picture scroll, Liu'er's only memory left behind is already broken.

Xiao Yun felt as if he had been abandoned, but what made him so lonely was the decision he made, and he couldn't push it to others, so he could only bear it silently.

Turning around and walking away, Xiao Yun didn't want to go into this empty room again.The house is empty, the side is empty, and even the heart is empty.

It took a whole month for Liu'er to come to the place where she was exiled, Beiliang, a desolate place that was almost forgotten by people.

There is no city, but at a glance, there are continuous green hills. In the autumn season, the green leaves, red leaves and yellow leaves are staggered, but it is also a rare beauty.

Liu'er showed a relaxed smile, this place, perhaps, is just right for her.

"Is this the one, um, I see, thank you for your hard work." Several guards handed over, and Liu'er was led to several houses in the mountains.

"Shitou, the new one, you take care of it." The guard handed Liu'er to a very tall and burly man. The man named Shitou looked at Liu'er and snorted disdainfully, "Huh, just Give me such a useless person!"

"If it's useless, I'll have more hands. If you don't want me, I'll send it to Ah Guang." The guard made a gesture to pull Liu'er away, but Shi Shi hurriedly stopped him, "If you bring it, keep it. It's done." As if the person who complained just now was not himself, Shito spoke with confidence.

The guards were used to seeing him like this, so they ignored him, left Liu'er behind, and left.

"What's your name?" Shitou looked fierce, but Liu'er had nothing to be afraid of, and said flatly, "Liu'er."

"Liu'er, Che, you have the same name as a girl, and you have thin skin and tender flesh. It's a pity that your life is unlucky. When you get to this place, only the King of the Underworld will spoil you." Shitou brought Liu'er into the house. In the room, a bed was made of wooden boards, and a dozen people were crowded on it, each of whom was in rags.

Seeing Liu Er coming in, everyone had different eyes, some sympathetic, some disdainful, some greedily looked at Liu Er's clean clothes, Liu Er ignored them all and stood quietly in the room.

"Old Ba, let me out!" Shito ordered, and a person reluctantly squeezed aside, adding another person to the already crowded bed, no one was happy.

On the wooden bed, there was only a thin layer of mattress, and in some places, there was only a layer of cloth, and it seemed that it hadn't been washed for many years. Everyone originally thought that Liu Er, who looked noble, would hate it. She dodged away, but saw him lying down indifferently, with his hands under his head, his eyes narrowed, and he was about to fall asleep.

Dirty environment, hard beds, Liu'er has lived there before. Before their mother passed away, they were all wandering on the streets, and they could find a shelter from the wind as a temporary shelter.The only difference now is that there is no mother's embrace around her.

"Sleep and sleep, we're going up the mountain tomorrow!" Seeing that everyone's eyes were on Liu'er, Shitou yelled and blew out the dim candles.In an instant, the room was pitch black, and there was the sound of wind blowing outside the window, occasionally mixed with the howling of some unknown beasts.

Soon, the snoring sounded, masking the eerie and strange sounds of the forest outside the window.In a room with more than a dozen people crowded together, no matter how hard Liu'er endured, she couldn't fall asleep peacefully. Just now she closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, but she just avoided other people's eyes.

Although she lost her heart and gave up her feelings, Liu'er is still the most ordinary person, not a fairy.Facing such a strange environment, he will also feel afraid, which is an innate fear.

When begging for food, I had my mother's care, when I was in Yanyu Building, I was accompanied by Liren, but now here, I am alone.Although Liu'er no longer cared about life and death, there were some things that were more frightening than death, and that was the "unknown".

Knowing nothing, knowing nothing, and being unprepared, Liu'er is about to start a strange life, among a bunch of exiled prisoners, to start her own life in exile.
