Chapter 594

When Pei Zimo came out of the passage, it was still the mountain that entered the passage before.

It's just that this time it was winter, and the moment she came out, she was blown through by the cold wind, so she could only use spells to keep out the cold.

In such a cold winter, she was wearing thin clothes, and she couldn't resist for a long time even with spells, so she could only go down the mountain as soon as possible.

When she went to the small town at the foot of the mountain, she bought clothes to keep out the cold and a fast horse, and then drove back and forth to the state.

After entering Fuzhou City, from a distance, she saw white silk hanging on the gate of the Zhang Mansion, and there was an endless stream of mourners. She frowned, got off her horse and walked in.

After they left, they left Zuo Ci to stay in the Zhang residence to take care of them, and now Zuo Ci is also welcoming and sending them off before the mourning hall.

Pei Zimo frowned and took a few steps forward.

Zuo Ci noticed something and turned around to look, "Princess."

Pei Zimo's footsteps paused, they had only been away for a while, how old did Zuo Ci seem to be?And when she left, she also saw the fate of Zhang Zhiji and Zhang Taifei, at least there would be no major disasters or illnesses in the past two years.

She frowned as she thought about it, but it was summer when they left, and it didn't make sense that winter would come so soon.

"Princess, you are back." Zuo Ci said, looking behind Pei Zimo, "Where is the prince? Is the prince not with you?"

Pei Zimo pursed his lower lip lightly, "He has something to do and can't come back."

Zuo Ci was about to speak when someone helped Zhang Zhiji out of the mourning hall.

Although he was sad, he still restrained himself. Seeing that Pei Zimo was alone, he also showed a hint of disappointment on his face. He stood at the door and didn't go any further.

Pei Zimo looked at Zhang Zhiji, and frowned even tighter. His hair was all white, and he looked like he was ten years older.

But seeing Zhang Zhiji, it also proves that the person in the mourning hall is Zhang Taifei.

"Princess, why don't you change into filial piety first?" Zuo Ci looked at the people coming and going, and said in a low voice.

When Leng Yuan heard that Pei Zimo was back, she also came out to welcome her, and took her to the backyard to change clothes.

Pei Zimo thought for a while before asking, "How long has it been since we left Fuzhou?"

Although I didn't know if Pei Zimo and Bai Jinye had come back before, I still prepared filial piety clothes for them. This will indeed come in handy. While helping her change clothes, Leng Yuan said in a low voice, "It's been 12 years .”

"12 years?" Pei Zimo looked at Leng Yuan in surprise.

Leng Yuan practiced spells, and she has a good face. Before that, Pei Zimo also taught Zuo Ci under the cliff of Qionghua Mountain. Leng Yuan has continued to teach Zuo Ci in these years, so the faces of the two of them seem to be different. There are changes but not many.

Leng Yuan knew that Pei Zimo's skills were higher than hers, so she didn't seem to have changed at all, and she didn't feel abnormal, "Miss, how have you been all these years? When you left, you said to go to Qiankun Palace, did you find that place? Is the matter resolved?"

Pei Zimo didn't know how to explain this to Leng Yuan, but now that Zhang's house has no juniors, and Bai Jinye is not around, she also has to go to the front hall to guard the spirit.

Now is not the time to talk, seeing that her complexion is not very good, Leng Yuan didn't ask any more questions, and went to the front hall with her.

After all, she is a concubine, officials, gentry, rich and powerful from far and near all came here.

When there were fewer people in the evening, Zuo Ci walked up to Pei Zimo and said in a low voice, "I have sent a letter to the capital two days ago, and the emperor said that he would come in person, so I guess he will have to stop for a few more days."

He paused as he spoke, and then asked again, "Princess, is it true that the lord won't come back?"

Pei Zimo shook his head.

Zuo Ci vaguely had some bad premonitions, but it was inconvenient to ask now, so he could only silently follow Pei Zimo to add paper to the brazier.

When it was a little later, there were not many guests in the house to express their condolences, so Zuo Ci accompanied Pei Zimo to find Zhang Zhiji.

Zhang Zhiji has experienced the departure of relatives many times in his life, and he has long accepted the situation of Concubine Zhang, and has long been prepared for her death. Although it is not such a big blow, he is also saddened in his heart.

Especially with Concubine Zhang's passing away, he has even fewer relatives in this world.

Although there is still Bai Jinye's biological mother, she has lost contact with her long ago, and it is impossible for her to come back.

There was also Bai Jinye, but he didn't know what he was busy with. This time, he had been away for more than ten years. He even thought that he would never see him back until the day he died.

But now that Pei Zimo is back, Bai Jinye should be coming soon, right?

"Can't come back for a while?" Zhang Zhiji couldn't help asking after hearing Pei Zimo's simple narration, "Then how long is this for a while? A year or so? Or ten or eight years?"

Pei Zimo frowned slightly, but did not speak.

Zhang Zhiji squeezed his crutches, and said again, "Just tell the truth, I can bear it, tell me, has he already... already..."

"No." Pei Zimo hurriedly said, "He is alive and well."

"Then what is the delay? You have come back, but he still hasn't come back?" Zhang Zhiji couldn't figure it out, "Then is there any way for you to write him a letter and say...just say his mother concubine?" After passing away, why should he come back to take one last look?"

Pei Zimo shook his head lightly, but did not speak.

Zhang Zhiji still wanted to ask something, Zuo Ci hurriedly took the words, "Old man, don't you know what kind of person the prince is? If it's not because of something, it's impossible not to come back."

Especially with their prince's attitude towards their princess, he can't wait to follow him wherever he goes. Now that Pei Zimo is back, if he can follow him back, his prince will never give up.

Zhang Zhiji sighed for a while, and was persuaded by Zuo Ci to go to rest first.

When only Pei Zimo and Zuo Ci were left in the hall, Pei Zimo asked, "How has Tianfeng Kingdom been these years?"

Zuo Ci sighed, "A few years ago, a new country appeared to the west of Xiye Kingdom. They always invaded Xiye Kingdom. Fortunately, the prince had already planned. There were several wars, and ASRock and the others supported them in time. Xiye Kingdom. However, the western border of Xiye Kingdom has been invaded a lot."

"It is estimated that Xiye Kingdom will not last long. When Xiye Kingdom is gone, I am afraid they will directly invade Tianfeng Kingdom."

"In a battle two years ago, General Hua was seriously injured. Although he survived by luck, he couldn't go into battle and kill the enemy."

"Now Ni Zheng is in charge over there, and Sikong has also gone to Yuecheng."

"Fortunately, the emperor trusts the generals in Yuecheng, and has promulgated some new policies in the past few years. The lives of the people have improved, and I heard that they are also preparing for the war in the future."

"In short, everyone knows that this battle will be fought sooner or later."

Zuo Ci pursed his lips as he spoke, "The emperor wants to come to express his condolences in person this time, and I guess he also wants to inquire about the whereabouts of the prince."
