Chapter 643: He can’t go where he wants to go, he can’t see the people he wants to see
After leaving Fushou Courtyard, Meng Nan said to Jin Xiaoan, “You arrange things for me. I don’t want them to send my letter to this mansion. Let them send the letters directly to my courtyard in the future. And you will collect them regularly.”
He took the letters back to Nanju Courtyard. He closed the door as soon as he entered, then sat down and open the letter.
As he read the letter one by one, his complexion was constantly changing and his eyes became gloomy.
Jin Shiwei had never seen Meng Nan like this before, and so he busily asked: “Gongzi, what did the letter say? Why do you look like this?”Meng Nan slammed the letter on the table and said in a deep voice, “Something happened to Zhi’er.”
“Something happened? What happened?” Jin Shiwei asked urgently.
Meng Nan handed him the letters: “Look at it yourself.”
Meng Nan turned and started collecting his things in the closet. When Jin Shiwei finished reading the letters, Meng Nan already packed his things. He carried his baggage, took the sword, and walked out.
Jin Shiwei hurriedly stopped him: “Gongzi, where are you going?”
“I’m going to find her.” Meng Nan said.
Jin Shiwei anxiously said: “Gongzi, didn’t you read the letters? Bai Zhi has escaped, but they don’t know where she is from the time being. As long as she safely escapes, as long as she is still in the Chu Country, she will return to Huangtou Village. Even if you go now, where will you look for her?”Meng Nan said: “I will wait for her in Huangtuo Village.”
“Gongzi, calm down. It will be the Chinese New Year soon. This is the first time you take responsibility for the New Year’s Eve celebration. If you go now, who will do your job? You will only cause big trouble!”
Meng Nan shook his head: “I don’t care about it, what does it have to do with me? It’s not something I want to do. It’s just right to leave.” He was tired of staying in the capital, so he wanted to leave and never come back.
“Gongzi, what are you talking about? If you go, what about Master and Furen?” Jin Shiwei was calm at this time. His mind was also clear. At this time, he shouldn’t let his young master leave.
Meng Nan paused. His eyes were filled with distress. After hesitating for a while, he gritted his teeth: “I don’t care about them now, I just want to find Zhi’er.” He pushed Jin Shiwei away and opened the door to leave.
As soon as the door was opened, he saw his mother standing at the door. His mother looked at him with tears: “Nan’er, do you really want to leave? You don’t even want to care for your parents because of that wild girl from the mountain village?”
Meng Nan thought he could leave without care, but facing his mother’s face, full of tears. He realized that he was not as cruel as he thought.
“Mother, why did you hide those letters?” Meng Nan asked.
Xu Furen stared at her son’s face and asked word by word: “I am asking you, do you really want to leave? Even if you no longer be the son of Meng Family?”
Meng Nan was silent for a long time but said in the end: “I will find her. As long as she is safe, I will come back.”
Xu Furen shook her head: “You can’t go!”
Meng Nan grabbed his baggage, avoided his mother, and strode forward.
Behind him, the maidservants panicked and yelled: “Madam, what’s wrong with you? Hurry up, ask the doctor to come. Madam passed out.”
Meng Nan turned around as his baggage fell to the ground. He knew that he couldn’t go to where he wanted to go, and couldn’t see the people he wanted to see.

In Xiao Wangfu.
Chu Feng was sitting in the pavilion of the Palace Garden with a gloomy expression in his face. Despite the cold wind, he didn’t feel the slightest coldness. His blood all over his body was boiling.
He said to the guard beside him: “Has everything been arranged?”
The guard nodded his head: “Your highness, Prince Jin will definitely pass by Paoma Valley tomorrow afternoon. This subordinate has already set up a trap in Paoma Valley. It will difficult for him to escape unless he flies.”
