A dream ends life

The four-horse carriage started slowly and headed out of the city at a leisurely pace.

Shi Yuyan, kneeling on the ground, dug a hole in the sand under her hands.

"Bitch, bitch!"

How could an abandoned woman like Su deserve to be treated so highly by the god-like King Jia? How could she be a worthy match? How dare she? Why didn't she just die!

Shi Yuyan's face was distorted with jealousy.

Princess Changle looked at the carriage going away leisurely for a long time, then turned around and got on the carriage.

Shi Yuyan quickly got up and ran over. This place was still far from the inner city and she didn't want to walk back. Even though Princess Changle was not in a good mood, she still got on the carriage with a smug face.

As soon as she leaned in, the teacup in Princess Changle's hand came towards her face. She didn't dare to hide, she closed her eyes and took it.

"What a good idea you came up with! It's really good, very good!" Princess Changle murmured in a low voice.

Shi Yuyan felt as if she had fallen into an icy cave. Thinking of the purpose of looking for Princess Changle, she took a deep breath and said, "That bitch Su is actually related to Prince Jia. We have to speed up our actions."

Princess Changle looked at her jokingly, "You've already said that she has a relationship with the emperor's uncle, I don't want to make trouble for her."

Shi Yuyan's heart skipped a beat. "Doesn't the princess want Su's shops? Her shops are a piece of fat meat."

Princess Changle certainly knew that Su Ci's shop was a piece of fat meat, otherwise why would she allow Shi Yuyan to approach her.

This woman claims to be smart, but in fact she is selfish and greedy, showing the low quality of merchants to the fullest.

She thought she could control people's minds at will and that everyone was in her control. But in fact, she was also being controlled by others.

The result of trying to get the skin of a tiger is self-evident. Considering that she is still useful, let's spare her this time.

"You'd better not let me down!"

The two of them returned to the inner city with their own thoughts. As for how Shi Yuyan would attack Su Ci's shop, it was not within Princess Changle's consideration.

She only looks at the results and just waits to pick the fruits.

As for the cause of death of Prince Wu, I believe she dared not disclose it. The fact that she dared to contact her behind Yu Luohan's back was enough to show that what Yu Luohan gave her did not satisfy her. Such a person knows best how to choose.

Just wait until she is no longer useful and then kill her without anyone knowing.

Princess Changle had beautiful thoughts. She didn't know that Su Ci had no intention of letting her go. The rest of the trip to the capital city became a real mess because of her behavior today.

……

The carriage slowly went towards the direction of Xiangguo Temple. Su Ci suddenly realized that Prince Jia was going to Xiangguo Temple. He relaxed a little, picked up the tea on the table, and sipped it.

Xiao Che took in her deep affection and said, "Madam Su is going out." It was not a question but an affirmation.

Su Ci lowered her eyes, "Yes."

Xiao Che asked casually, "When will you be back?"

Su Ci was stunned. Coming back? She had never thought about it.

The capital city seemed to have nothing to do with her. There were no people or things here that made her worry.

It’s funny, everything that happened yesterday seemed like a dream, and the dream ended when I woke up.

"Won't come back."

Xiao Che raised his eyes to look at her, but Su Ci's face showed no emotion, neither sad nor happy.

"Where are you going?"

Su Ci was about to collapse. Why did this guy bring up such irrelevant things? He spoke a few words at a time but she didn't know how to respond. She didn't want to lie to him, nor did she want to tell him what was in her heart, so she could only be vague.

"Just go with the flow. Stop where you feel comfortable, and start again when you feel bored."

This was the best ending she had ever thought of, and it was also the rest of her life she had planned.

Maybe I will go back to Qi to see my old friends, just a glance from afar. I won't show up and won't disturb them.

It's not that she is cold-hearted, this may be the best ending for everyone. She doesn't want to see her former friend standing in front of her in a completely different state due to various unavoidable reasons. She doesn't have the courage to face it.

Baishuang, Baili, Achuan...

Who was responsible for her disappearance? Or, how much did they participate in it? She didn't dare to think about it, and she didn't want to think about it.

Oh! As expected, she looks out of place wherever she goes.

Xiao Che did not miss her fleeting look of bitterness, and his heart ached. He didn't know what she was thinking.

She was not sad about the confrontation with Yu Luohan, and she was not sad about being pulled out of the river. What on earth could make her look so lonely and vulnerable?

Su Ci looked out through the window and saw an old man carrying a bundle of grass hurriedly passing by.

He walked hurriedly for a while, then looked back strangely, his eyes full of pride.

He felt that he was still strong and healthy, and that he could work for another thirty or fifty years.

Su Ci...

Only then did I realize that the carriage was moving at a snail's pace. I looked at the sky and thought, well, at this speed, we should be able to reach Daxiangguo Temple before dark! That should be about right!

Her carriage had moved ahead at some point, and Chunshui would occasionally stick her head out to look over here.

Su Ci raised the corner of her mouth. Prince Jia really knew how to play. If she hadn't done it secretly, everyone would have thought he knew something.

This is obviously a rhythm to kill Wu Peiyi. Well, if she dies, she should thank the person in front of her. She only has one chance, and death is a gift to her.

No matter how slowly the carriage goes, it will eventually arrive at Daxiangguo Temple. We will not burn incense today, so the carriage will stop directly at the back gate of Xiangguo Temple. It is getting late, so we will stay here tonight.

After saying goodbye to Xiao Che at the front door, he took Chunshui to find the old monk and the young monk.

The two were going to go with Su Ci, but Su Ci had too many things to do recently, and with the emergence of the Poison King, she had to change her original plan.

The old man and the child returned to Xiangguo Temple for something.

Now that she was leaving, she naturally came to ask if she still had the passage.

"Donor Su?" The little monk saw her from afar and ran towards her.

"Young Master, how are you?"

The young monk clasped his hands together and chanted the Buddha's name in a serious manner.

"The master is meeting with guests. Mr. Su, please follow me to the side room first!"

Su Ci nodded, "Please lead the way, Master."

In a secluded small Zen temple, an old monk sat on the bed and said to the person opposite him: "Why are you here today, benefactor?"

Xiao Che looked at him and said, "Come here when you want to."

The old monk...seemed to answer, but also seemed to hear nothing.

Looking at his injured leg, he frowned, "Why is he injured?"

Old monk...if he had come a few days later, he would have fully recovered. There is really no need to mention him anymore.

The two had an awkward chat.

Dongliu arranged the carriage and came to the wing room.

Su Ci sent Chunshui to the temple to add some money for incense, but he had not returned yet, and only the little monk and she were left in the room.

"Madam, everything has been arranged. Shall we set off tomorrow?"

Su Ci thought for a moment and said, "Dongliu, Princess Changle seems to be very idle. It's time to let her be busy."

Dong Liu's eyes flashed, "Don't worry, Madam. I will make arrangements in the next few days. I will make sure she is busy."

Su Ci did not comment. If she hadn't bumped into him today, she would have almost forgotten about her. All she could say was that she deserved it!
