Yuan Xi was confused at this moment.
Although I was very interested in Xiao Qiao, I never thought that I would be so powerful that he would take the initiative to throw himself into his arms.
He knew there must be some misunderstanding, but the spring scenery in front of him was really eye-catching.
So Yuan Xi couldn't help but look at it a few more times. This scene was so dazzling that he even lost consciousness for a while. Until Da Qiao's body couldn't help but tremble, Yuan Xi suddenly woke up and coughed quickly, "Girl Please get dressed first, I actually have no other intention."
When Da Qiao heard Yuan Xi's words, her body tensed up. However, when she heard Yuan Xi's words clearly, her brain suddenly felt a little overwhelmed. When she slowly understood the meaning of the words, her face began to heat up, and she hurriedly put her deep thoughts into her hands. He buttoned his collar again, feeling at a loss for a moment.
She lowered her head, curled up her green fingers in her sleeves, and pinched her palms until it hurt. How could she have made the mistake?
Da Qiao tried hard to calm down her breath, and it took a while before she gradually calmed down, but she suddenly noticed that the other person's breath was still much heavier than before.
Yuan Xi felt quite embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry, the girl is really beautiful."
Da Qiao was at a loss when he heard this, and was speechless for a moment. The two of them just remained in a silent stalemate.
Until a growling sound from his stomach suddenly broke the silence, Da Qiao's face became hot, and Yuan Xi said, "The girl hasn't eaten yet?"
Da Qiao just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in, and said in a voice like a mosquito, "I'm not very hungry yet."
As a result, there was another sound in her stomach, and Yuan Xi couldn't help laughing, pushing the wooden plate in front of Da Qiao, "Girl, eat first."
At this moment, Yuan Xi's stomach also growled, and Da Qiao couldn't help but raise his head in surprise. The two looked at each other, and a smile appeared on their faces involuntarily.
Yuan Xi said warmly: "I don't eat much at night, and my wife is ill and doesn't have much appetite. It's better for the girl to come first."
At Yuan Xi's insistence, Da Qiao had no choice but to pick up the wooden bowl, pick up a piece of egg, add a few bites of vegetables, and hastily ate less than half a bowl of vegetable rice. Although she lowered her head, she felt that Yuan Xi's eyes were always staring at her. Then he put down the bowl and said, "I'm full."
"I'll take it out and make a new one for you."
Yuan Xi waved his hand and said, "No need to go to such trouble."
He picked up the bowl and took a bite, and his eyes lit up, "Is this made by a girl?"
Da Qiao blushed and nodded. Yuan Xi praised it while eating: "This taste is very nostalgic."
"I have been traveling and fighting in many battles in the past few years. Although the army carries lard, everyone is reluctant to use it for cooking. Instead, it is used to maintain weapons, so it is rare to have such a good meal of lard fried rice."
Da Qiao felt strange when he saw Yuan Xi using the bowls and chopsticks he had just used, but then he was attracted by Yuan Xi's words, "How does lard maintain weapons?"
Yuan Xi explained the use of lard, "Human blood and water can make weapons rust, so after a battle, they must be cleaned and maintained to keep them sharp."
Seeing the worried look on Da Qiao's face, he suddenly woke up and said, "I'm sorry, you shouldn't say such things to a girl."
Da Qiao whispered: "It's my fault. I just thought that my father's life and death were uncertain, so I..."
Yuan Xi wondered: "What's wrong with Mr. Qiao?"
After listening to Da Qiao's words, Yuan Xi learned that Qiao Rui had led troops to fight under the orders of Yuan Shu. He couldn't help but sigh: "Why is Mr. Qiao so confused?"
"I persuaded the emperor to be the messenger to deliver a message to Bo Fu that day, just to keep him away from the dispute. Why did he end up getting caught up in it?"
Da Qiao understood a lot from Yuan Xi's words and said softly: "It turns out that the envoy helped my father. I am loyal and grateful for the great kindness of the envoy."
"My father was forced to return to Shouchun to protect my sisters."
After listening to Da Qiao's explanation, Yuan Xi realized that everything Qiao Rui did was for Er Qiao. He couldn't help but sigh: "It's pitiful for the hearts of parents in the world. What Qiao Gong did is admirable."
"But now his life and death are unpredictable. In troubled times, it will be very troublesome for you to be left without anyone to protect him."
Da Qiao was silent, she had to admit that Yuan Xi's words were right, and what happened to the two sisters now also illustrates this point. ,
However, she also had some resentment in her heart. Who knew that Lujiang County was far away in the rear and was originally safe, but she didn't expect that the ferocious tiger in front of her made a big circle and captured the city!
When Qiao Rui sent her sisters to Wancheng, she specifically mentioned it to Da Qiao before leaving, saying that the only one who could conquer Lujiang County was Sun Ce. However, Sun Ce was close to Yuan Shu's adopted son and would never be able to do such a thing while Yuan Shu was still alive, so Lujiang is quite safe.
The result was unexpected. Sun Ce really couldn't help but beat Lujiang, but the fierce tiger came!
Yuan Xi now took over Yuan Shu's rear area, and Wancheng was in chaos. Da Qiao was forced to take Xiao Qiao to flee, but he did not escape in the end.
She looked at the ferocious tiger in front of her that was completely different from the one in the rumors, and wondered, should she blame him, or should she be grateful?
She whispered: "What is the relationship between the young master and my father?"
"Why did the young master capture my father twice, only to let him back again?"
Yuan Xi thought for a moment and thought that he should be open to Qiao Ruiwang. Maybe there is really a relationship between Xiao Qiao and Xiao Qiao?
But how can I say that I let your father go because I coveted the beauty of your sisters?
Seeing Yuan Xi's strange expression, Da Qiao wondered if he had asked something he shouldn't have asked?
Yuan Xi coughed and said, "Strictly speaking, Mr. Qiao and I were on the same side that day."
"But now that Mr. Qiao has gone back to help Yuan Shu, I am also in a dilemma. On the battlefield, as long as there are two hostile parties, there will be no mercy. After all, I have to be responsible for my soldiers."
Da Qiao's face turned pale. She naturally understood that Qiao Rui had been let go twice by the other party, which was an unprecedented honor, but now she was the daughter of the Qiao family.
She unconsciously put her hand on her collar again. Yuan Xi saw it and coughed dryly, "Girl, don't think too much, I really have no other intentions."
"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. Besides, it is not certain whether I can reach Shouchun. Who knows what will happen in the meantime. Maybe Mr. Qiao has recovered his health by then and left safely."
Da Qiao hesitated to speak. Yuan Xi was still a little worried when he saw the other party, and explained: "I brought the lady to the mansion, firstly because I am familiar with Mr. Qiao, and secondly because I thought that the lady is the same age as the girl. If the girl can accompany her, If you talk, you might be able to untie her knot."
"That's all my intention at the beginning. I hope the girl won't worry."
He talked about Lu Lingqi's situation, and finally said: "To be honest, it's my fault. She participated in too many battlefield killings, which caused depression in her heart. If the girl can enlighten her from time to time, I will be very grateful."
Da Qiao suddenly realized this and said hurriedly: "Please rest assured that I will take good care of my wife."
The two couldn't help but look at each other. Da Qiao saw that the other person was staring at him, and there seemed to be something else in his eyes, so he quickly lowered his head.
Yuan Xi also felt that the atmosphere was awkward and said, "It's getting late, so please go back and rest."
Da Qiao hurriedly stood up, bowed her hands, and was about to walk out backwards. When she reached the door, she remembered that the wooden tray and tea bowl had not been put away, so she hurriedly walked towards the table and reached out to hold the wooden tray.
However, she was walking in a hurry, tripped under her feet, and fell forward. Yuan Xi saw her and subconsciously stood up and reached out to help her, but the two of them bumped into each other and both fell to the ground.
Da Qiao lay on top of Yuan Xi. He was dizzy for a while before he realized what was happening. His face felt like it was on fire. He hurriedly tried to push himself up, but suddenly he rolled out as if he had been bitten by a snake. .
She reluctantly stood up, her fair face flushed red with embarrassment, looked at Yuan Xi sadly, opened the door and ran away without restraint.
Yuan Xi sat on the ground with a look of helplessness on his face. It was not something he could suppress.
He sat up slowly, recalling the aftertaste of what happened just now, thinking that with Da Qiao being so disturbed, he would no longer have any thoughts about doing anything tonight.
Yuan Xi picked up a few tubes of bamboo slips and tried his best to calm down, but the impact Da Qiao had just given him was so great that he could only bend his body and let the bulge on his robe slowly heal. But the more he did this, the more he felt. It's because my heart is getting more and more restless.
Speaking of which, he had been busy fighting every day during this period. He and Lu Lingqi seldom held hands, let alone shared the same bed, not to mention husband-wife matters.
In addition, Lu Lingqi's condition was not good, so Yuan Xi seemed to be single in the past few months. He thought to himself, no wonder the ancient officials did not take their wives with them when they took office, but they could take concubines. The ancients were honest and could not be deceived.
While he was thinking wildly, he heard the door being knocked gently again. Yuan Xi was suddenly startled. Is Da Qiao back?
If he really wanted to recommend himself as a pillow mat, could he still refuse?
He thought for a while and then made a decision.
What a waste of rejection, put it in your mouth and refuse to eat it, are you still a man?
Thinking of this, he said angrily: "Please come in."
The door slowly opened, and Yuan Xi took a closer look, but it was not Da Qiao who came, but another girl who looked slightly younger, with a hint of childishness on her face.
Although her appearance is slightly inferior to that of Da Qiao, she is still the best choice. Moreover, this woman is wearing a low-cut skirt with a touch of snow-white on her chest, which highlights the extremely thrilling curves of the mountains.
He saw the other party holding the pipa, lowering her head uneasily, and asked in confusion: "Are you Da Qiao's sister Xiao Qiao?"
"What's going on?"
It was Xiao Qiao who came. When she heard Yuan Xi talking, she felt a little bit in her heart. From the tone of her voice, she felt like she had met her sister before?
She raised her head slightly and saw a wooden plate on the table. Several bowls on the plate contained the same food that Da Qiao had brought to her. Xiao Qiao suddenly felt that she understood something. Is her sister perhaps here just now?
Could it be that this ferocious tiger used some method to hold his sister hostage?
The hateful ferocious tiger is so insidious!
But now there is no way. My sister cannot resist the high authority of the position. If this continues, my sister will be poisoned by him sooner or later!
No, I must not let my sister fall into the pit of fire!
In order to save his sister, he would rather feed a tiger with his own body!
Thinking of this, Xiao Qiao took a few steps forward, and her curves made a thrilling tremor as she walked. When Yuan Xi saw it, her nose felt hot, and she heard Xiao Qiao whisper: "I'm here to play for the young master to entertain you."
Yuan Xi was already feeling very depressed. When he saw this, he waved his hands and said, "I don't know the music, so you should go back first."
After hearing this, Xiao Qiao gritted her teeth, pulled her skirt down, lowered her head and said, "The night is long and I will never abandon you. I am willing to accompany you."
Yuan Xi felt like nosebleeds were about to flow. Why did everyone have to challenge their own bottom line? Don't they know that they can't stand the test?
