Qianyu's eyes dodge, and when he was about to speak, Qi Chuchu walked out of the door, letting Qianyu retreat first.
Seeing Qi Chuchu, Mu Chenduan's fierce expression softened a little, and he walked forward quickly, "Why are you out?"
"I'm a little bored and want to take a walk."
"Then I'll accompany you."
Qi Chuchu agreed, and the two of them walked to the pavilion of the post house.
When she returned to the room, Qi Chuchu took the initiative to tell Mu Chenduan that what she drank this morning was anti-child medicine.
"Jia'er..."
"I was drinking it before. I know you will definitely question Qianyu or check the person who prescribed the medicine. Why don't I tell you directly."
After the words fell, the room was silent for a long time. Mu Chen asked Qi Chuchu to sit on the soft couch, but he still asked without giving up, "Why? Is it because you are afraid of the pain of childbirth or because you don't want to have your child?"
Qi Chuchu just glanced at Mu Chenduan's eyes, and suddenly felt like she was being judged, "All..."
"Mu Chenduan, I..."
"Okay, Jia'er. There's no need to go on. As long as you don't want to, I will never force you to have a child. If you want to blame me, it's only my fault that I didn't get to know you earlier. I didn't get to know you before you suffered the hatred of the country and the family." Mu Chen He said, holding Qi Chuchu in his arms.
Qi Chuchu silently said sorry in her heart, but slowly hugged Mu Chenduan's waist tightly.
After lunch, the group set off again. After another seven days, they finally arrived at Huadu, the imperial city of Xixia.
As soon as they entered the city, envoys came to greet the two of them, and also welcomed Qi Chuchu and Mu Chenduan into the princess mansion.
"Princess Jiashan, the emperor has given orders. Whatever you and His Royal Highness Duan Wang need, just give them. These are people assigned by the palace, and they will definitely serve you well." Eunuch Su said with a smile.
"Thank you, father-in-law."
After seeing Eunuch Su off, Qi Chuchu went to the dormitory, while Mu Chenduan and Zhan Yiming walked around the house to see if there was anything unusual.
After some inspection, there was indeed something abnormal. There were more than twice as many guards outside the house as usual.
After Qi Chuchu found out, he immediately found a jar of medicinal powder and filled several portions for Mu Chenduan, Qianyu and others to take with them in case of emergency.
On the second day after the two arrived in Huadu, the new emperor of Xixia summoned Qi Chuchu and Mu Chenduan in the palace.
However, there was only a small banquet, and there were only Dugu Qing and the two of them at the entire banquet.
"I'm very relieved that you two have come all the way." Duguqing said, raising his wine glass.
Qi Chuchu and Mu Chenduan also raised their glasses, and all three of them drank a glass, followed by a song and dance.
"Qingcheng's dance skills were the best, but it's a pity that we can never see them again..." Dugu Qing said quietly and took another drink.
Today, it probably won't be that simple. Just what Qi Chuchu was thinking, the maids and eunuchs at the banquet suddenly withdrew, and instead a group of guards appeared, and sharp knives were set between the necks of Qi Chuchu and Mu Chenduan.
"Uncle Emperor, what are you doing?" Qi Chuchu said without looking at Dugu Qing.
Duguqing laughed a few times, broke the wine glass in his hand, and slowly walked towards Qi Chuchu and Mu Chen with a sword.
He pointed the blade of his sword directly at Qi Chuchu's eyebrows and asked, "Nangong Yuejia, I want you to tell the truth of that day, my Princess Qingcheng! How did she die!"
Qi Chuchu faced the emperor in front of her, and slowly stood up straight. The sword blade on her shoulder shook slightly. The sword in front of her had not been put down, but she was not afraid at all now, she just felt very emotional.
Duguqing may be a good father, but he doesn't deserve a good death.
"The person who killed Qingcheng and Ye Fengwan was King Qingyang of Dongye. Qingcheng died under King Qingyang's dagger. But King Qingyang is dead."
"How did King Qingyang find out about Qingcheng? Is it because of you that he killed Qingcheng?" Duguqing roared, his eyes bursting with bloodshot eyes.
When Mu Chen saw this situation, he immediately stood up to protect Qi Chuchu, but Qi Chuchu pressed down his shoulders.
Qi Chuchu smiled lightly, "You question me like this, just because you don't want to admit that you are the one who caused all this, right? Uncle Huang."
"If the person who went to Dongye to get married was not me, but the real Qingcheng, such a thing would not have happened."
"But you won't let Qingcheng get married. The marriage was just a condition for Dongye to secretly support you when you were seeking power and usurping the throne! How could you let your own daughter take such a risk?"
"So my father, the emperor, my mother, my queen, and my three brothers all died, and you left me alone, leaving me to die."
"But my situation is also very difficult. The road to marriage has been bumpy, my innocence has been ruined, rumors have spread, and I have been abandoned by the emperor. You, the nominal father, have never said a word about it. Naturally, others will know that something is wrong if they think about it for a moment; others If you have a grudge against me, you will naturally investigate."
But unfortunately...
But the real Dugu Qingcheng is so pure and kind.
"Why were you unscathed? Were you there that day! Why didn't you save Qingcheng..." Duguqing said angrily, but the sword in his hand was trembling.
Qi Chuchu's eyes gradually filled with tears, but she knew that she was not the savior, and it was not her fault that she could not save people in such a situation.
"I was present. It was me and Qingcheng that King Qingyang wanted to kill, but it doesn't mean that just because I was present and I survived, I should be asked why you didn't save another person, why you are alive!"
"I am just a woman, a little woman who has lost her family and country."
