The distance from Mount Yoshino to Kamakura is not close, and when the group returned, it was always snowing.Although the cold wind blowing in front of them didn't affect people's actions much, but they walked on a daily basis in such weather, and there was a slow-moving carriage in the team, so the movement speed of the whole team was not very fast.

Naturally, Chi Xiaoyan couldn't share a carriage with Jing Yuqian.After experiencing the previous incident, Chi Xiaoyan herself didn't even have the courage to appear in front of Jingyu again. Although it was for work and for a different stand, the guilt in her heart could not be eliminated.

But there are only six horses in preparation for the team.Guijia Zhenzong came in a hurry, and did not bring dispensable equipment such as horses, so after he came, Chi Xiaoyan's original mount was naturally given to him to use.Since then, Chi Xiaoyan's situation has become a bit awkward.

After a little hesitation, Chi Xiaoyan went to the leader of Genji's army and asked if he could borrow a horse as a mount.

"Looking for your good friend, why come to us to ask for a mount?" The general who led the team sneered, "You can be so intimate in front of the public, you don't have to worry about such things as shame."

The sarcasm that was undisguised and almost insulting even sounded colder than the winter wind. Although he was always good-tempered, Chi Xiaoyan was naturally a little angry when faced with such straightforward abuse.However, she didn't retort immediately. After all, she also knew that her previous behavior was so unsightly in front of people of this era. The pursuit of aristocratic ethics is still quite enthusiastic.

Affected by the Three Views, it is understandable for Chi Xiaoyan that her behavior is not accepted, but this is not the reason for him to humiliate her outright.

Chi Xiaoyan didn't show any expression of embarrassment and indignation, and even slightly raised the corners of her lips—this kind of reaction made the guy on the opposite side feel that she was hopeless, and her eyes were filled with undisguised of contempt.

Chi Xiaoyan raised his head slightly, and spoke slowly, but his tone was not as gentle as usual: "The general is really busy. If his tongue is so long, shouldn't he go home and fix it? To avoid the pain from chewing like this, and let it hurt." People think Genji chose a useless woman as leader."

"I borrowed the horse from you because I thought that such a situation would be inappropriate for you, but now it seems that I was too worried. Since the general likes this kind of scene so much, I don't have to make trouble for myself. "

After finishing speaking, Chi Xiaoyan turned around and returned to Guijia Zhenzong's side.Guijia also understood immediately, and carefully helped Chi Xiaoyan onto the horse, and then he himself turned onto the horse's back.

The general who was told by Chi Xiaoyan was so angry that he jumped up, but thinking of Chi Xiaoyan's situation, and the group of warriors behind Chi Xiaoyan looking at him with smiles, he finally suppressed the anger in his heart.Although he really couldn't agree with Chi Xiaoyan's personality, he had to admit that this gossip-like appearance was a bit out of character.

So for the next time, he kept taking the front of the team, trying to make himself ignore the two people snuggled up on the horse not far behind.

In fact, under such circumstances, Chi Xiaoyan felt a little ashamed at first when they shared a ride together. Even though he had confirmed Guijia Zhenzong's intentions, Guijia had been practicing during this period of time, and the time they spent getting along so close was so short. It can be ignored, and at the moment, he is in the team, and there are many people watching beside him.

However, it was a helpless move to come to this step, and of course Chi Xiaoyan would not retreat because of his inner shyness.Fortunately, Guijia Zhenzong's movements were very natural, he was holding the rein with one hand, and he was holding Chi Xiaoyan's shoulder tightly with the other hand.The warm body temperature blocked all the cold wind outside, surrounded by such warmth, Chi Xiaoyan finally gradually relaxed.

"Have you gone? The place I mentioned before." Chi Xiaoyan leaned back, almost clinging to the chest of the tortoise shell, she raised her head slightly, and asked softly.

"Of course." The tortoise shell lowered its head and gently rubbed her forehead: "I have to say, Master, you and I really have a tacit understanding when it comes to choosing a place to practice."

"So... have you got the evidence?" Chi Xiaoyan sat up slightly, trying to look back at the turtle shell.Just a gust of cold wind blew by, slightly shaking the cloak that was originally covering her body.

So she quickly shrank back.For a while, she didn't see the expression on the tortoise shell, but she didn't know if it was her illusion, just now, she seemed to feel that the expression on the tortoise shell's face seemed a little heavy.

But soon, Guijia Zhenzong's voice with a smile stuck to her ear again: "The wind is strong now, when it stops, I will tell you in detail."

After a day of marching, the team finally set up their barracks in a spacious place in the evening.The leading general, on the grounds of limited military resources, only allocated a tent that was not very spacious to Chi Xiaoyan and his party - counting the Fusangshen and the following butterfly spirits and nightmare eaters, the tent was really barely enough Just be able to accommodate.After the assignment was over, the general gave Chi Xiaoyan a meaningful look.

But Chi Xiaoyan has no opinion on this.The group of them just followed them to Kamakura with shamelessness, and the impression she left on the general was really not very good. At this moment, the general's willingness to give them a tent felt that it was enough.

"It's just time to discuss what to do next." Chi Xiaoyan said with a light smile while kneeling on the tatami.

"Then we..." Butterfly Spirit stood up tactfully, turned around and wanted to go outside the barracks.

"You guys stay here too." Chi Xiaoyan said to stop her and the Nightmare Eater: "The next thing is also related to Ping'an Jing."

Then, Chi Xiaoyan turned to look at Guijia Zhenzong: "Now let's talk about it in detail."

Guijia Zhenzong nodded in agreement: "Since it is your order."

"In the second half of this practice, I went to this world. Of course, it was my own intention at the beginning, but then the master also asked me to go to that world to investigate something. The content of the investigation is this person."

With that said, he took out a photo.In the photo is a young man, he is quite mediocre, but there seems to be a shrewdness in his brows and eyes.

To be honest, when Chi Xiaoyan saw this photo for the first time, she didn't recognize this person's identity. After all, this image is a bit different from the image of this person in her impression - Shiga Kayama, this is his The way he looked when he was young.

"That's right, he is the one who has crossed paths with Hei Qingming, and not only that, he also seems to have dealt with the retrograde army through Hei Qingming." Kiyoshi Sadamune tapped the photo lightly: "After he was transferred to After working in the government of the time, it was very difficult for me to find information about him, but there are still a few traces to follow before that."

"After all, he had already started dealing with Hei Qingming before he arrived at the government of the time. The orphanage was also planned by him. The purpose was of course aimed at the Xu family, which the master still belonged to at that time. Not only that, but all the It's not just spreading public opinion and fueling the flames behind the scenes."

At this point, Guijia Zhenzong paused for a moment, and he moved slightly towards Chi Xiaoyan's direction, before continuing: "The death of the Xu family's wife, Chi Yuqing, was not actually an accident, but he asked Hei Qingming He did it. Because Chi Yuqing's reaction was completely unexpected, he was worried that his calculations would be affected by her, so he simply killed her."

Chi Xiaoyan's pupils narrowed slightly, but the expression on her face didn't change much, she even kept her original smile, but even if it was very subtle, Guijia Zhenzong still found her trembling.So he took her hand gently.

"Are you okay?" he asked softly.

"I'm fine." Chi Xiaoyan turned her head a little stiffly, trying to maintain the expression on her face, "Actually, it's not an accident, I thought she wouldn't just be like that..."

Speaking of this, her tone seemed a little choked up, so she quickly took a deep breath, and then held the hand of Guijia Zhenzong with her backhand, and said: "It's okay, please continue."

"There is actually nothing to say next. After all, he was transferred to the government of the time after that incident, and I have not been able to obtain evidence for the subsequent incidents." Turtle Sadamune said, "Those speculations will be released later." Besides, it doesn't matter, now...do you want to go out with me?"

Chi Xiaoyan nodded slightly.So the two walked out of the slightly crowded barracks side by side.At the beginning, neither of them spoke. It was not until they reached a place with dim lights and few people, that Guijia Zhenzong stopped and said softly, "If you are sad, you can cry here."

"To be honest," Chi Xiaoyan lowered her head slightly, "I'm not as sad as I imagined. After all, she has always been a very strong person in my heart. When I learned that she was killed by someone instead of committing suicide...I think maybe I How much better, I didn't have the ability to protect her at the time, fate..."

Her voice became lower and lower, eventually becoming a small sob.Guijia Zhenzong gently brought her in front of him, let her lean on his shoulder, and then patted her on the back lightly, counting it as silent comfort.

After a long time, Chi Xiaoyan finally stopped crying.So she wanted to get out of this embrace for the time being, after all, they were still in the camp at the moment, even if there were not many people coming and going, such behavior was not very good after all.

But Guijia Zhenzong didn't intend to let go.He tightened his arms around Chi Xiaoyan's shoulders, and then whispered in Chi Xiaoyan's ear: "Actually, I've been hesitating before whether I should tell you about such things."

"After all, in my opinion, such a thing is really unbearable, but I have no right to make a choice for you without authorization."

"So I'll tell you, if you want to know. About your biological parents."

Chi Xiaoyan's body froze instantly.biological parents?To her, this was completely out of concept. After all, she had been living in an orphanage as long as she could remember. Although some people had said something about it to her, they were all abusive remarks.Ever since Chi Xiaoyan met Chi Yuqing, she never thought about her biological parents.After all, according to Chi Yuqing, "Since they have abandoned you, it proves that you have nothing to do with them, so why should you worry about that kind of thing?"

But it would be a lie to say I didn't care at all.Even if it's just knowing, don't bother, don't ask them why they gave up on themselves, just know who they are.

"Do you know... who are they?" Chi Xiaoyan asked tremblingly.

Guijia Zhenzong suddenly approached, lowered his head and bit Chi Xiaoyan's lips.The sudden touch made Chi Xiaoyan a little overwhelmed, she couldn't help opening her eyes wide, and then, the tortoise shell pressed against the corner of her lips, and spoke a few words softly.

"Shiga Kayama is your biological father."

Like thunder.
