Especially during King Jing's rebellion, Yi Ying knew that she was unforgivable. When King Jing was kidnapped by people sent by the King of Shu to rebel, Yi Ying, as a pawn of the King of Shu, was always the person in charge. Although she was not the planner of that incident, she was the executor. What's more, over the years, as the capable subordinate of the King of Shu, she did many shameful things for the former King of Shu.
Yi Ying knew clearly that once her identity was revealed, Huang Qiong would be easily caught because of this matter. As a former capable subordinate of the King of Shu, Yi Ying knew how cruel the battle for the throne was within the Tian family. Because she once mastered the King of Shu, and even her own compatriots would not fail to attack him for the throne. King Jing's death was caused by him.
If you stay with Huang Qiong, leave others alone for now. The King of Shu himself would definitely seize the opportunity and cling to his identity. As for whether the King of Shu was really dead or faked, as his most capable subordinate, Yi Ying knew better than anyone else. Even though the news of King Shu's death has spread throughout the world. But Yi Ying knew clearly that it was just the golden cicada of the King of Shu that escaped from its shell and faked death.
Anyone could be burned to death because of drunkenness, but it was absolutely impossible for the King of Shu. Even if the King of Shu is unable to take care of himself, he still has countless followers in the court. Yi Ying knew very well how huge the secret power of King Shu was. Even though the King of Shu has too much time to take care of himself, he still has not given up chasing him. What would be the consequences if he knew that he stayed at Huang Qiong's place?
If the emperor knew that he, one of the culprits who forced King Jing to death, became Huang Qiong's wife and concubine, all Huang Qiong's efforts might be in vain, and it might even bring greater danger. No matter how bad King Jing is, he is still the emperor's biological son. When the King of Shu cannot be caught, or does not want to be caught, all the anger may be poured out on himself, one of the culprits.
What's more, even if the King of Shu is really dead, few of Huang Qiong's other brothers are good ones. For the sake of the throne, those people's eyes were all bright red, and they tried every means to cause trouble for their own brothers, and they used all kinds of methods. His former identity could easily become a handle for others to blackmail Huang Qiong. After all, there is no airtight wall in this world.
It was precisely because he knew too well how much trouble he would bring to Huang Qiong if he stayed with him. So from the moment she left Huang Qiong's side, Yi Ying never planned to go back. What's more, during the time she stayed with Huang Qiong, she could also feel that the women around Huang Qiong were rejecting her. Yi Ying, who is somewhat arrogant by nature, does not want to go back and compete with others.
The second son of Qingyang, who didn't know these things, let alone what Yi Ying had done in the past few years after losing contact with Yi Ying, didn't know the grudge between Huang Qiong and Yi Ying. He only found out about this prince, the biological father of Yi Ying's child, yesterday. Therefore, Huang Qiong thought of Yi Ying's somewhat disappointed performance, which he regarded as a bitter play to test himself.
However, after Huang Qiong and Qing Luo left, he was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he sat on the horse and looked at Huang Qiong's back somewhat absentmindedly. It wasn't until the backs of the three people completely disappeared that they took the reins and galloped away. And Huang Qiong, who was a little disappointed when he left, would have thought that after he left, the second son of Qingyang would think of so many things in his mind?
Huang Qiong, who was somewhat disinterested, didn't even bother to look in the direction after leaving. Just like that, he walked slowly towards the front. Qingzi Erluo, who was following him, also felt that Huang Qiong was in a low mood at this time. She didn't say much, but just stayed by his side quietly. I don’t know how long they walked. It wasn’t until they reached a village that Huang Qiong took the reins of the horse.
Looking at the two girls next to them, whose faces were flushed by the cold wind and who were obviously a little bit cold, they felt a little apologetic and distressed at the same time: "I was in a bad mood just now, so I ignored you. How about this time? It must be freezing. I didn’t expect that it’s already spring and it’s still so cold. Let’s go in and find a house to warm up and beg for a drink of hot water.”
After saying that, he got off his horse and led the horse to the village. It's just that this village, although it guards Chang'an City, is obviously not a wealthy village. In the entire village, there is not a single brick house, let alone any high-profile family. They are all low thatched houses. However, Huang Qiong did not dislike the poverty in front of him. He found a random house and asked Qingzi Erluo to come up and call the door.
The New Year has just passed, and it is not yet the busy farming season. Therefore, most people in the village still stay at home. Erluo stepped forward and the door opened with a shout. Although the person who opened the door was also a woman, maybe Erluo was also a woman, which made people less defensive. Erluo's request that the couple wanted to go in to warm themselves up and ask for a cup of hot tea was easily accepted.
Huang Qiong didn't mind that the room was low, and heard the owner agreed. He casually tied the three horses to an old crooked tree in the fenced yard, and then followed Erluo into the house. But after entering the house, he felt a cold feeling coming from inside the house. It was even colder inside the house than outside where at least the sun was shining.
After watching the three of them enter the house, the hostess was busy lighting the fire and boiling water. Only then did Huang Qiong realize that there was no fire in the house. Knowing that this must be because the hostess felt sorry for the firewood and had been reluctant to light a fire to keep warm, Huang Qiong couldn't help but shook her head. After taking another look, I saw this extremely shabby room. And the hostess who was busy boiling water, wearing thin and patched clothes.
Although the hostess, when she was busy, she didn't know whether she was shy or a little scared to see the man Huang Qiong. With her head lowered all the time, Huang Qiong could not see her face clearly. But the scene in front of him made Huang Qiong shake his head slightly, and at the same time, he felt sour in his heart. Sure enough, no matter it is the peaceful years or the war, the people who suffer the most are the people living at the bottom of society.
Huang Qiong, who felt some sympathy in her heart, whispered to Erluo beside her to leave some more money with the family when they left. Although it can't save too much suffering, it can save some emergencies. As the fire under the stove grew stronger and stronger, the room gradually became warmer. Although I was wearing a fur coat along the way, I was still riding a horse in the cold wind of early spring.
Qingzi Erluo, who was really freezing, felt her body become warmer, and her somewhat pale face gradually returned to normal. And this family is so poor, and in such a cold weather, they are not even willing to burn firewood, so naturally they have no money to buy expensive tea. The so-called hot tea is just three bowls of boiled water. After receiving the hot water from the hostess, Qingzi Erluo, who recovered, kept thanking her.
Just when the woman was about to hand the third bowl of hot water to Huang Qiong. Since entering the house, Huang Qiong, who had never seen her true appearance because the woman kept her head lowered, was stunned by the woman's beauty. The woman in front of me was in her twenties. Although her clothes were in tatters and patched with patches. And because I haven’t been full for a long time, there are some dishes on the side.
But beneath the haggard look on his face, he hid a beautiful face. Looking at this appearance carefully, it is even more outstanding than the Qingzi Erluo next to him. Although her figure was hidden under the tattered but somewhat loose clothes, it was hard to tell what she looked like. But when he was squatting down to make a fire and boil water, the silver basin-like back that occasionally appeared was quite attractive.
Huang Qiong did not expect that in this small and remote village, there would be such a beautiful and fragrant woman. When I received the water from the woman, I couldn't help but stare at them intently. It wasn't until Qingluo called out repeatedly that he came out of his daze and took the water hastily. But when he took the water bowl, his hand seemed to accidentally touch someone else's hand.
Although it felt a little rough, it made Huang Qiong feel itchy. Being teased like this by Huang Qiong, the woman couldn't help but blush. She was about to rebuke Huang Qiong for being shameless, but before she could say anything, she was interrupted by Qingzi Erluo's question behind her. Facing Er Luo's questions, no matter how angry Huang Qiong made this woman, she could only restrain herself.
Because when the woman handed Huang Qiong water, her back was turned to Qingzi Erluo, so neither of the two women noticed Huang Qiong's little move. Erluo, who still didn't know what Huang Qiong had done, started talking to the woman about household matters. Huang Qiong didn't say anything, just listened silently, the smile on his face never falling. However, his eyes always fell on that woman intentionally or unintentionally.
Although because of Huang Qiong's reckless behavior just now, the woman had been deliberately avoiding him. But despite being patient and dealing with Qingzi Erluo, she still felt that when Huang Qiong kept looking at her, she had the same look as some people who had evil intentions towards her in the past. And when this man looked at her, his almost unabashed gaze made her feel extremely embarrassed.
Now, she even regrets letting these three people in. She really couldn't stand Huang Qiong's gaze. She smiled apologetically at Qingzi Erluo, turned around and walked into the inner room separated by an earthen wall. But this woman didn't expect that the man was like a hungry wolf, staring at her and not letting go of the man. After he entered the inner room, he followed him in swaggeringly.
Seeing Huang Qiong follow into the bedroom, her blushing face couldn't help but become even redder. But Huang Qiong, who was standing opposite her and keeping his eyes following her, saw that this woman's face was red with embarrassment and she looked angry, and the fire in his heart couldn't help but grow stronger. Just when the woman walked up to him and wanted to push him out, he grabbed the woman's hand.
He held the woman directly in his arms. He opened his mouth to shout out what the woman wanted to say, but was blocked again. One hand held down the struggling woman, while the other hand started to do evil. The woman's already tattered dress could withstand such tearing by him. Without any effort on his part, he turned into a lamb ready to be slaughtered and was pressed onto the earthen bed in the house.
Seeing the woman's unusually plump figure hidden under the ragged clothes, Huang Qiong felt the fire in his heart getting stronger and stronger, and completely lost his mind. Ignoring the woman's struggles, tears, and pleadings, she broke through the door and entered. Huang Qiong, who had been holding back his anger in the past two days because of Yi Ying's incident, had forgotten why he killed the Fifth Master Chu.
What's more, he has forgotten that what he is doing to this woman now is different from the beast-like Fifth Master Chu back then? Huang Qiong, who just wanted to find an outlet for his anger, didn't care about anything. And that kind of strange perfection and extreme richness made him more and more angry. He held down the woman's two hands and started tossing them regardless.
