Chapter 1318: Shame
When Bai Zhi received the news, the Meng family had already been uprooted.
Meng Changling and Meng Changde couldn't survive, Madam Meng hanged herself, but no one involved in the case survived except Meng Nan.
And those innocent servants of the Meng family.
As for the offshoots who had close contact with the Meng family daily, they separated from the Meng family immediately after the incident, and they couldn't help but change their surnames altogether, so as not to have anything to do with the word Meng.
This was a serious crime of treason. When anyone mentions the word Meng in the future, the first thing that comes to mind was treason. No matter how talented a young man was, he may also be defeated by the word Meng.
The cold wind in the capital in the deep winter was biting, especially the early morning wind, which cuts people's faces like knives, stinging and cold.
Bai Zhi was sitting in the carriage, with the small curtain half-opened, staring at the gate of the city with eyes clear as water.
She came before the city gate opened, she knew that Meng Nan would leave today, and she wanted to see him off.
When she was in Huangtuo Village when she needed help, he was a rich man and an official with a high rank, but he selflessly help a little peasant girl like her. She always kept this affection in her heart.
Now, Meng Nan was in trouble and needs the care and help of her friends. Naturally, she can't pretend to be okay and avoid it.
Today, Meng Nan was wearing a dark blue robe. The color of the clothes was low-key, but the fabric was very luxurious. They were old clothes he has worn several times before, and they were also one of the few belongings he brought out from the mansion.
Jin Shiwei followed behind him, holding a sword in one hand and two bundles in the other. With tears in his eyes, he followed the young master step by step, feeling sorry for the young master's current situation.
After leaving the capital, where will they go? Although the world was big, where will they settle down?
Out of the city gate, they didn't even have a carriage or a horse. They have nothing, they just walked out of the capital city, relying on two legs, so where could they go?
A young man in gray clothes came over and stopped Meng Nan and Jin Shiwei. The young man smiled and said: "Young Master Meng, my lady asks you to take a step to talk."
"Your lady?" Meng Nan raised an eyebrow. He doesn't know who the lady in front of her was.
He lowered his eyes and saw that the young man had a green bamboo plaque hanging on his waist, with the word Dongfang engraved on it.
Dongfang?
Bai Zhi?
He quickly turned his head to look at the carriage parked not far away and saw that the thick curtain was lifted. Bai Zhi got out from inside, dressed in plain colors as always, and looking elegant and smart as always.
His silent heart began to beat wildly again, and at the same time, a sense of shame arose spontaneously.
If she knew that he was also involved in the conspiracy and that his purpose was so dirty, would she still be willing to see him?
Will she?
Probably not.
So he can't say it, and he can't say it until he dies.
He walked towards the carriage, and the people in the carriage stepped down on the footstool.
"Meng Nan, you've lost weight." She stood in front of him, under the morning sun, just like she was many years ago.
She hasn't changed at all, she was still Bai Zhi from before, but he has changed beyond recognition.
"Fortunately, at least I'm still alive. I saw today's sunshine and you, which is good." This was the truth.
If it wasn't for Bai Zhi, he thought he would have no reason to live anymore.
Because of Bai Zhi, he wants to live on. Even if he can't be with her, he can occasionally hear news about her and grow old in the years of missing her. That was enough.
