In order to prevent Little Jiajia from being captured by Xuanyuan Ce before she could run too far, Ji Luo did not get anyone to send him a message in advance. Instead, she waited until she arrived at Qinghe prefecture before showing him the letter Little Jiajia had left behind.
It had been two months since Little Jiajia left.
“Don’t worry about that girl. I did a divination. She won’t be in danger on this trip.” She might even meet her fated one.
She didn’t say the last sentence.
Xuanyuan Ce was speechless. Was this what he was worried about?
“No, I’ll send a letter to Emperor Chong’an of Great Xia. If he doesn’t send my daughter back properly, I’ll bring the army to flatten his country.”
Ji Luo knew that he wasn’t spouting nonsense.
The Xuanyuan Kingdom had developed rapidly in the past few years. Not to mention Great Xia, even the combined strength of the two countries could not compare to it. It was undoubtedly the leader of the three countries.
It could be imagined that after Emperor Chong’an received this threatening letter, he would find that girl and send her back to Prince Jing’an’s residence even if he had to turn Great Xia upside down.
However.
“How did you know that my daughter went to Great Xia?” Ji Luo looked at him suspiciously.
She could only divine that Little Jiajia had gone southwest, but she could not calculate the exact location.
Coincidentally, Great Xia was in the southwest of the Xuanyuan Kingdom.
Xuanyuan Ce was speechless.
Not only did he know that his daughter had gone to Great Xia, but he also knew who her husband was!
But could he say that?
In his previous life, Ah Luo was never with him in the end, and his daughter was always separated from him. These had almost become his lifelong regrets.
Perhaps the heavens had taken pity on him, causing him to return to the day he met Ah Luo when he opened his eyes a hundred years later.
Using his past memories, he helped his brother get rid of the aristocratic families and married Ah Luo, making up for all the regrets in his previous life.
If she knew…
Xuanyuan Ce did not dare to gamble and had never thought of revealing this secret.
Meeting Ji Luo’s scrutinizing gaze, he held back his guilt and explained, “Didn’t the people circulate a portrait of the young heir of Great Xia’s Bulwark Duke’s residence a while ago? Jiajia has the same personality as you and likes handsome boys. I guess she probably saw that portrait and ran to Great Xia to look for him.”
Ji Luo knew about this. She even saw that portrait of a young man in luxurious clothes sitting on a horse and looking back at the world with a smile.
At that time, she even joked that this little heir was compatible with her daughter, causing Xuanyuan Ce’s face to darken. She almost couldn’t get out of bed for a few days.
Later on, when she got angry, the matter was over.
As expected of her daughter. Her taste was as good as hers.
Ji Luo didn’t know that Xuanyuan Ce didn’t give that portrait a chance to appear in front of Little Jiajia, but this didn’t stop her from unilaterally agreeing to this “marriage”.
“I don’t care. If you dare to ruin Jiajia’s plans, I won’t let you off.” After saying that, Ji Luo snatched Little Jiajia’s letter and turned to leave.
The threat was full of meaning.
Xuanyuan Ce thought to himself, “I must have a grudge against Song Jingchen.”
Besides, it wasn’t like he didn’t want them to continue their previous fate. He just wanted to keep his daughter for a few more years.
Little Jiajia did not know that her father was suffering. After she brought You Yi and MO Yuan to rob the tenth group of bandits, she finally shook them off.
It took them another month and a half to arrive at Great Xia’s Chang’an in mid-October.
“Candied hawthorn. I’m selling candied hawthorn.” The vendor carried the candied hawthorn skewers and peddled them on the street. Noticing the little girl’s gaze, he subconsciously softened his tone. “Little girl, do you want two sticks of candied hawthorn? It’s not sour at all. It’s very sweet.”
Little Jiajia blinked. “Uncle, I can buy your candied hawthorn, but you have to
answer my question first.”
The vendor subconsciously said, “What is it? There’s nothing in Chang’an that I don’t know. ”
“Do you know which family’s Young Master is the best-looking in Chang’an?”
