Women dressed as men: powerful officials

Chapter 105: Hold on, steady

It was naturally cold outside the carriage, and as Chen Shan was driving fast, the cold wind felt like a knife scraping his face, chilling him to the bone.

Xu Yuan put on his veil and remembered that Zhang Yue said he would come. Seeing that Chen Shan was driving the car without any intention of stopping, he swallowed the words back several times when they came to his lips.

If I had known this earlier, I shouldn’t have gone with you.

Otherwise she would have to follow other people's path.

As Xu Yuan was thinking, Chen Shan let out a "whoosh" and stopped.

Without waiting for Xu Yuan to ask, Chen Shan took the initiative to say, "Young Master said that we should wait until Young Master Zhang Yue arrives before leaving."

Hearing this, Xu Yuan took a look inside the carriage.

The curtains were closed and she couldn't see anything, but she felt an inexplicable warmth in her heart.

Xu Yuan nodded and got off the carriage. Chen Shan tied the carriage to a tree nearby and sat beside it to guard it.

The snow stopped and the sun slowly came out.

Xu Yuan estimated the time, walked to the carriage window, and asked, "Mr. Shen, if you are in a hurry to leave, why don't you go ahead?"

Xu Yuan never expected to have to wait so long.

It didn't matter that she was waiting for Zhang Yue, but she felt a little embarrassed that Bei Yao was also here.

Beiyao did not lift the car curtain, but just said, "It's okay."

Xu Yuan nodded to himself, not caring whether Bei Yao saw it or not, and then sat down next to him.

After waiting for nearly half an hour, the sound of horse hooves was finally heard.

Xu Yuan got up hurriedly. Zhang Yue rode over and when he saw the carriage, he sped up until he was right in front of Xu Yuan.

"Xuyuan, I'm sorry, something happened in the military camp, so I'm a little late."

"It doesn't matter." Xu Yuan shook his head. "I'm already very happy that you can come. If you are really busy, it doesn't matter if you don't come."

"How about that?"

Zhang Yue stroked the horse's coat and took off the bag on its back. "I have some money here. You can take it with you, in case you don't have enough on the road."

"Really, that's not necessary." Xu Yuan shook his head.

"I'm in the military camp and don't need much money. You don't have to worry about me."

Zhang Yue hung the bag on Xu Yuan and said, "Xu Yuan, study hard in the capital. I'll take care of everything at home. Don't worry."

"I know." Xu Yuan looked at Zhang Yue, who was completely different from before, "Brother, swords have no eyes on the battlefield, you must take care of yourself."

"Do I need to tell you this?"

Zhang Yue tapped Xuyuan's shoulder and reminded him, "You too, take care of yourself and eat more. Look how thin you are. If the wind gets stronger, it will definitely blow you away."

Zhang Yue looked at Xuyuan and tears welled up in his eyes when he thought that he might not see Xuyuan for a long time.

But after a moment, he wiped his eyes and said with a smile: "Let me tell you, the wind is strong in Sishui County, and the sand is blown into my eyes."

"Brother, this isn't a life-and-death separation, why are you so sad?"

Xu Yuan smiled, took a step forward, hugged Zhang Yue tightly, and finally reminded him: "Brother, live well and wait for me to come back."

Zhang Yue also said: "You too, take care of yourself and wait for me to go to the capital."

Zhang Yue’s embrace was warmer than Xu Yuan had imagined.

She didn't even want to leave.

However, people always have to learn to face separation, don’t they?

Xu Yuan gently pushed Zhang Yue away, smiled and said, "Okay, after sending you a thousand miles, we must say goodbye. You still have things to do, so hurry back."

After saying that, Xu Yuan returned the bag Zhang Yue had just given him and said seriously, "The money we had before is enough. You can keep this for emergencies. We are brothers, so let's not talk about anything else."

After hearing the wish, Zhang Yue finally gave up.

He nodded and finally said, "Take care."

"You too."

Xu Yuan held the thin rope on the bag and finally turned around and left.

Seeing this, Chen Shan returned to the carriage and sat on it. After Xu Yuan got on the carriage, he slowly turned around and left.

Zhang Yue watched the carriage slowly disappear from his sight, then he climbed onto his horse. After riding just one or two steps, he caught up with it and shouted, "Xuyuan, you are the best!"

The loud voice echoed in the desert.

Xuyuan's back suddenly stiffened. She slowly turned around and looked at the young man waving a horsewhip in the distance. She finally couldn't help but burst into tears.

On the side, Chen Shan saw this and said, "Your brother is so good to you."

"He is very good to me."

Xu Yuan gently wiped the tears from her face and said with a smile: "No matter when, no matter where, no matter what I did, in his eyes, I was right."

In his previous life, Zhang Yue walked from Sishui County to the capital for her.

In this life, Zhang Yue gave up everything for her to study.

Xu Yuan will never forget how good Zhang Yue was to her.

Hearing Xu Yuan's words, Chen Shan said, "You were also very good to him. I was afraid that something might happen to you when you ran to the desert that day. If I had known that you couldn't even finish listening to my words, I shouldn't have told you."

When Chen Shan said this, Xu Yuan remembered the day when she learned that Zhang Yue was arrested, she left without hesitation.

She seemed to have ridden away Chen Shan's horse, and no one knew how Chen Shan got back.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I was too impulsive last time."

"Nothing." Chen Shan shook his head. "You two have a deep bond as brothers. I understand."

After Chen Shan finished speaking, he said, "Mr. Xu, we need to hurry up. Your injury is not fully healed yet, so you should go sit in the carriage."

Xuyuan wanted to refuse, but he had already used an excuse.

If I say it again at this moment, the meaning will be too obvious.

She hesitated for a moment, and inside the carriage, Bei Yao said coldly: "Come in and sit down. If you stay outside, you will only delay Chen Shan's driving."

Xu Yuan hesitated for a moment and said, "Sorry to bother you then."

Xu Yuan picked up the baggage, held the carriage, and bent down to go in.

The carriage was a bit bumpy, and Xu Yuan was too embarrassed to ask Chen Shan to slow down, so he slowly moved inside. Just after moving one or two steps, Xu Yuan saw Bei Yao's hand reaching open the curtain.

Still wearing a white sleeve, he raised his eyes to look at her, "Hold on, steady yourself."

The moment Xu Yuan reached out and was about to grab Bei Yao's hand.

Bei Yao turned his hand slightly and held Xuyuan's hand through his sleeve.

After Xu Yuan came in and sat down, he withdrew his hand and slowly poured the tea.

Xu Yuan sat down on the other side of the carriage, looking at the burning charcoal fire, and suddenly felt lazy.

The carriage may not look big from the outside, but it has everything you need inside.

Tea table, chairs.

There were even some fruit snacks.

There was mink hair on the chair, and the charcoal in the stove was of the best quality, unlike the charcoal burned in ordinary homes, which was irritating to the eyes.

She couldn't help but think that the young men in the capital were really particular.

And there are probably very few people who are as particular as the person in front of him.

This is not about rushing back to Beijing, it is clearly about enjoying oneself, or even sightseeing.
