The bell didn't go well.
It was drizzling and the wind was chilling.
It was already late at night, and the night wind was blowing harder and harder.
Zhong Miao Yi personally dressed her in a new set of clothes. Under her exquisite makeup, one could see that she had a sexy appearance that could be polished.
Many years later, he would also be another Zhong Miao Yi.
"Madam." The bell trembled, and her eyelashes fluttered.
This box of jewelry was something she had worn when she went to Qingge. When Su Zeyi had given it to her back then, she had been happy for a long time.
At that time, she thought that her appearance that had been adorned with gold foil was just for growth, and that Su Zeyi would have a whole new level of respect for her.
Young do not know the feeling of sadness, knock a chess piece to drop a flower lamp.
It really suited the her of the past.
The Zhong Miao Yi told her very clearly, "Don't be afraid, I will go with you."
Qingge's Courtesan Belle's large flower sedan chair was already waiting under the locust tree on the east side of the street.
Today, no one came to send her off, and no one would know that the Su Clan had lost a slave. Just like how she had left without a sound and came back unscathed.
But the bell might. There was no chance to come back.
Ban Qiu had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time. The people in the courtyard were all on her side, it was very easy for him to cover for the young lady.
When he saw the bell, he was stunned for a moment before letting out a long sigh.
Perhaps, because Su Zeyi was not present tonight, he felt that a mere slave wasn't worth a look, or perhaps, he was unable to face Zhong Miao Yi's reproach.
No matter what it was for, Zhong Miao Yi was grateful to him for giving her some time alone to adjust her mood.
She was very familiar with the Su Clan's backdoor. The last time she went out of there, it was to meet Tang Yao.
Zhong Miao Yi felt a moment of absent-mindedness, but nothing happened very quickly. When she thought of Tang Yao now, aside from regret, she no longer felt that heart-wrenching pain. It could be seen that time was truly a great medicine.
There was no need to change clothes in the middle of the night like this.
But Zhong Miao Yi hoped to remember this. If she were to leave through this door, she would no longer be the Su Family's servant, but the new leader of Qingge, Yu Chen.
From this moment onwards, he would remember his identity, get used to it, and carve it into his blood and bones, cutting off all memories.
The three of them were alone in the empty street.
Ban Qiu followed from afar, and didn't have any intention of getting close.
Unconsciously, Liu Ling wanted to support Zhong Miao Yi, but was quietly dodged by Zhong Miao Yi. Her hands stiffened in the air for two seconds before she placed them in front of her.
"In the future, you don't need to support anyone, and the next time you see me, you can't perform a normal ceremony either." Zhong Miao Yi continued to walk forward. She could see the end of this road with a single glance, but she did not want to reach the end at all.
The bell followed without saying a word. In the silence of the night, one could clearly hear the restrained sound of the bell.
The locust tree on East Street had withered away, leaving not a single leaf behind.
Qingge's Madam was one of his own. When he saw Zhong Miao Yi, he had a complicated expression on his face, but he still kneeled down and bowed.
Zhong Miao Yi pushed the bell to the front. "This is the new Courtesan Belle selection by Su Zeyi, sorry to trouble you, mother."
The old procuress had long received news that the orphan she bought back then had become Courtesan Belle. The world was indeed a wonderful place.
"Su Zeyi should have already told me what she wanted to do. I taught this child to his, so don't worry, mother. It's just that he may have been a coward in the beginning, but I still need to worry about it." Zhong Miao Yi didn't feel that there was anything special about being a princess and the wife of the Su Family.
Previously, she did not have the time to talk to the old procuress, but today, after meeting her for the first time, she still called her mother 'mother'. The old procuress was shocked enough.
"Yes, the lord has already given his instructions. Please rest assured, Madam." After she finished speaking, she beckoned to the bell, "Young lady, get on the palanquin. The wind is too strong."
Bell took a deep breath and slowly walked to the old procuress's side. The servants carrying the palanquin lowered the palanquin beam and lifted the curtain.
The Zhong Miao Yi stared at her trembling shoulder and did not say anything for a long time.
There were some things that she had to face by herself.
The bell calmed down for a moment, then slowly turned around. As expected, she was crying, and the makeup on her face was all gone.
"Madam." She kneeled down with a thump. Zhong Miao Yi frowned as she resisted the impulse to go up and support her.
The crying bell could not speak any superfluous words. She forcefully kowtowed three times, and thousands of words seemed to be mixed in with this action.
Zhong Miao Yi's throat tightened as she nodded her head while choking back her emotions, "Go, go quickly."
Bell was still kneeling on the ground, crying until she couldn't stop herself from crying, "Bell!" "Thank you Madam."
She could not stand up, but the Brothel Keeper could no longer stand it. She pulled the bell, "Miss, please wake up. It's getting late, I need to be careful."
The bell didn't resist. After taking one last look at the Zhong Miao Yi, he was helped into the palanquin.
The old procuress bowed to Zhong Miao Yi and bid her farewell.
Zhong Miao Yi did not know how the bell in the palanquin was faring, but it would not be very good either. She stood alone for a while, when Ban Qiu walked forward and patted her shoulder: "Don't look anymore, it's gone far, let's go back."
The Zhong Miao Yi's heart was empty. Ban Qiu was right, on such a cold night, she should return.
"Can she do it alone?" Zhong Miao Yi let out a long sigh, not knowing what she was worried about.
"When you first went there, did you ask yourself this?" Ban Qiu had already prepared a shawl long ago for her. Her hands were already completely stiff, if she caught a cold, Su Zeyi would swallow her whole.
"Yes."
"Do you think you can?" It was rare for Ban Qiu to be so serious about something like this, when she spoke with a calm voice, she did not seem to be comforting.
"I think I can." Zhong Miao Yi smiled slightly, "At that time, you were young and arrogant."
"Then you have to believe that she can as well." Ban Qiu tugged on her arm, "She was raised by you, she is very smart, and can endure all kinds of grievances. She might be even more suitable than you were in the past, you have too many things to worry about right now, don't make it too difficult for yourself."
"She doesn't have you by her side. In the end, I am still the lucky one." The Zhong Miao Yi turned around and followed Ban Qiu.
Things from the past surged into her heart, but she no longer felt any great waves.
The bell left, taking the path that belonged to her, creating a life that belonged to her. Unfortunately, this life wasn't something she could choose.
But if they could choose, who would choose to go to a place like that?
