Arriving outside Feiyu Pavilion in a hurry, he saw Ji Ziyi walking out with a tired look on his face.
Before Qi Jin and Princess Qixia spoke, Ji Ziyi smiled calmly: "Although His Royal Highness does not require detoxification as a condition, detoxification still consumes a lot of energy. Prince Qi should think carefully about how to thank me."
Princess Qixia was concerned about her son. After hearing these words, she took a step back and knelt down without hesitation: "Qixia would like to thank Dr. Ji for her great kindness. If there is any future -"
"Hey, hey, hey! What are you doing?" Doctor Ji quickly stepped aside, "Prince Qi, help your wife up quickly, I can't bear this great gift."
Qi Jin helped Princess Qixia up, bowed deeply to Ji Ziyi, and promised: "In the future, whenever Miracle Doctor Ji is in need, I will go through fire and water without hesitation."
Princess Qixia looked at his pale expression: "Doctor Ji, is it really okay? Do you want to find a place to rest first?"
"I'm fine." Ji Ziyi waved her hand and warned carefully, "The child is still sleeping and will wake up after about a stick of incense. After waking up, give him some light food, drink more hot water, and other It’s nothing serious, don’t worry.”
Princess Qixia nodded in agreement.
Ji Ziyi didn't waste any more time and quickly told her to leave.
Princess Qixia walked into the inner room, stared at the sleeping child on the bed for a moment, and sighed softly: "Actually, I am also afraid."
Qi Jin turned to look at her, his thin lips pursed slightly.
"Although I was lucky enough to be pregnant with this child with the purpose of using you at the beginning, after spending more than two years together day and night, he is not only the flesh that has fallen off my body, but also the most inseparable concern for me in the past two years. , unknowingly has become the most important person in my life. I can't imagine, what should I do if something happens to Jun'er?" Qixia held Jun'er's small hand, her voice full of loneliness, "Maybe this is... The sad thing about most women is that once they have children, they have a weakness. Faced with a dangerous situation, I lost all my thoughts on the negotiations I originally planned."
As she spoke, she smiled bitterly and laughed at herself: "I thought I could be a strong, independent woman, a powerful woman in Mobei, and let those who had bullied me crawl at my feet to see who had subverted them. The world."
Qi Jin said nothing, but there was a strange ripple in his heart.
He looked at this woman in silence, who was still a stranger to him but had already given birth to a child together. In just two days, his view of her had changed several times.
He walked over and tried to put his arm around her shoulders, trying to give her some comfort: "Yuxi... I'll call you Xi'er."
Princess Qixia was startled.
"I will write a letter tomorrow and have it sent to my father and mother in southern Xinjiang to inform them of this matter." His voice was low and serious, "When they come back, we will hold the wedding. You You can make any requests, I will prepare them in advance."
After a pause, "After we get married, we will temporarily live in the Zhongyihou Mansion, and my parents will live in the Eldest Princess Mansion. You don't have to worry about the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law."
Princess Qixia was silent for a moment: "I have a condition."
"you say."
"I don't want gold, silver, jewelry, silk, or satin as a betrothal gift. I just want the heads of everyone in the Mobei royal family." Princess Qixia said, turning her head to look at Qi Jin, "How about we make a bet?"
"A bet?" Qi Jin was puzzled, "What bet?"
"You made a request to the prince, and we will lead the army to attack Mobei together. When the army comes to the city, if you chop off many heads of the Dugu royal family, from now on I will be my husband and raise my children, and serve my parents-in-law. If I chop off many heads, you will marry me. Be a little coward.”
Qi Jin was speechless, he didn't expect that she would make such a unique request.
Use the heads of the royal family as betrothal gifts?
Qi Jin took a breath: "Okay. I agree."
"What if your parents don't agree?"
Qi Jin thought about it seriously: "They are all very open-minded people. After knowing the truth, they should not object."
As he spoke, he laughed at himself unspeakably: "Originally, I never thought about getting married. I always felt that it would be a lifelong shame. I'm not sure if I can get out of the shadow. I don't want to delay the life of other women."
Princess Qixia asked back: "So if it weren't for this shadow, you might have gotten married long ago?"
Qi Jin hesitated: "I can't say that, maybe it's just because the fate has not come yet."
Princess Qixia hummed: "Have you ever taken in a concubine?"
Qi Jin shook his head: "No."
"really?"
"Why are you lying to me?" Qi Jin curled his lips, "Do you think it is honorable for a man as big as me not to have a concubine?"
Princess Qixia narrowed her eyes: "Do you feel sorry?"
"Not really." Qi Jin walked aside, poured a cup of tea and handed it to her hand, "I just haven't experienced the beautiful feeling between men and women, and coupled with the lingering nightmare of that year, Whether it’s a man or a woman, I can’t tolerate the other person’s approach.”
Princess Qixia took the tea cup and frowned slightly: "Then should I stay away from you now?"
"...It shouldn't be necessary." Qi Jin hesitated for a moment, held her in his arms again, and said thoughtfully, "I'm so close to you right now, so it doesn't seem like I have any particularly uncomfortable feelings."
Apart from a slightly accelerated heartbeat, there was no other discomfort.
Princess Qixia thought for a while and guessed casually: "Probably the shadow disappeared after knowing the truth."
"Maybe." Qi Jin lowered his eyes and looked at the top of her head, "Maybe it's because after Dugu Yinyun was beaten up by me, the depression that had been held for three years was finally released, and he learned the truth, so The shadow is gone.”
Anyway, it was just a psychological shadow, and it did not cause any physical harm. Moreover, he was a grown man after all, so if he thought about it, nothing would happen.
Princess Qixia took a sip of tea and said calmly: "Actually, I envy you."
"Envy me?" Qi Jin was surprised, "Why?"
"I envy a pampered and pampered young master like you. You have been loved by three thousand people since childhood, so one bad experience can leave a shadow for three years." Princess Qixia smiled faintly, with a smile that showed the self-deprecation of Qianfan, "I I was born into a royal family, but I have been ignored since I was a child. I have suffered countless grievances over the years. Just one of them is enough to leave a shadow that will be unforgettable for the rest of my life. However, if there are too many shadows, everything becomes numb."
So there won't even be a chance to leave a shadow.
After the words fell, Qi Jin suddenly fell silent.
So, is he actually being pretentious?
