Text 254 Kidnapping
It was night, and flames the size of yellow heads danced gently in the breeze from time to time on the lampstand. //. Baidu search: 78//
Qing Yiyi sat on the soft cushion made of fur, raised her head and watched her father knitting straw sandals, feeling a little surprised.
The Duke of Chu glanced at his daughter and said, "Are you really not able to remember anything about the past?"
Qing Yi muttered: "Occasionally I remember some trivial fragments, but it's better not to remember them here and there." Just like her previous life, she remembered some but not some, which made her itchy and wanted to know, but she couldn't. .
For example, what happened between her and Xiao Hua? She would rather lose her soul and jump into the sword-making furnace.
According to this ending, there is either an unsolvable knot between her and Xiao Hua, or there is a deep hatred that cannot be resolved.
But other than this, being with him is wonderful.
It's really contradictory.
Because of that ending, she was resisting him subconsciously, and there was a very clear voice deep in her heart telling her to stay away from Xiao Hua and not to have too much involvement with him, otherwise she would be doomed.
But she still couldn't control her heart after all, and finally lost her heart with him.
Duke Guo of Chu smiled and said: "I was born in a poor family. My father supported the family by knitting straw sandals. When I was four years old, I started knitting straw sandals with my father. Later I joined the army and fought hard all the way. Later I became rich and powerful. , but he is busy fighting with others. When he is free, he always wants to knit a few more pairs of shoes, but it is always difficult to calm down. It is a rare opportunity to have this opportunity now. Although Xiao Hua does not knit straw sandals, he likes to play a few Xianqin songs. "
Qing Yi fiddled with the lantern core and said boredly: "You can play the piano anytime."
Duke Guo of Chu glanced at her and continued: "But what he is playing now is not Xianqin."
Qing Yi raised her eyes and looked at her father blankly.
The Duke of Chu lowered his head again and started working on his work, "Qingyi, as long as you give him time, he will return home hand in hand with you, and then he will be able to play Xianqin."
Qing Yi was silent, he promised her three years. She also gave him three years, but after three years, will he really be able to breathe freely?
"Don't dad think that he will miss the country in his hands?"
Duke Chu shook his head, "Do you know what you lose as a father?"
"The wrong person was hired." Qing Yi frowned. The fake emperor had evil intentions, how could he win the hearts of the people.
Chu Guogong said: "At that time, I always thought that the imperial power was supreme. As long as there was imperial power, no one would dare to violate it. I was wrong. The real supremacy is not the imperial power, but the people's hearts. I care too much about the world, and if I care too much, I will not get it. And Xiao What Hua cares about is not the world, but the people's hearts. He cares about love, family affection, friendship, and everything in the world. Emphasis on love wins the hearts of the people, so he wants the world, which is just a matter of raising his hands. But for some reason, I always Regardless of the world or the people's hearts, they are just a chess piece in Xiao Hua's hands. I can't figure out what he wants. But I believe that what he wants is more than just a world, so he will not hand it over to himself Bound to imperial power.”
"Since he doesn't even care about the world, how can he have the time and thought to play the piano?"
"Qingyi, can't you see that he could give up the world for you?"
Tsing Yi was silent.
Chu Guogong said again: "I also listened to what your mother said before she died, and then thought about all the things your mother did to Xiao Hua in the past. I have only gradually figured it out these days. I am afraid that Xiao Hua's plot is related to you, otherwise your mother will also I will not use death to prevent your marriage with him. I don’t know why your mother is like this, but I know a man who can give up the world for a woman. She is enough to rely on."
Qing Yi smiled bitterly and fell silent.
Ayi shouted outside: "Eleventh sister."
Qing Yi stood up and opened the leather curtain. Ayi stood outside the door, looking anxious, "Isn't my brother here?"
Qing Yi asked, "Did something happen?"
Ayi said: "Guda is pregnant with Black Eagle's child. The elder feels disgraced and wants to leave the tribe with his own troops. If the elders leave, our tribe will fall apart and become weaker. Once you are weak, you will be devoured by the strong, so my father asked my brother to marry a bone-beater as his wife, but my brother said that he had a sweetheart..."
What she said next, even if she didn't say it out loud, Qing Yi could guess that Xue Lang must have said that his sweetheart was her, "Your brother did come here, but he left long ago."
Ayi was startled for a moment and said, "You are not willing to marry him, are you?" If Qingyi was willing to marry his brother, his brother would not have left and disappeared.
Qing Yi asked, "What if I marry him as my wife? What if I don't marry him as my wife?"
Ayi said: "If your cousin marries him, my father can't force his brother to marry him."
"But your tribe will be divided, right?"
Ayi nodded.
Qing Yi thought for a moment and said, "You go back first, I'll go look for him."
Since Qing Yi rescued A Yi, in A Yi's mind, Qing Yi exists like a goddess, and she never disobeys her words and agrees to go.
Qing Yi mounted his horse and headed west.
Until he stopped next to a tree, he looked up and saw a figure lying on the tallest branch.
The man turned over and sat up, staring at her from the tree. After a while, he sighed, "Why are you here?" It was Snow Wolf's voice.
Qing Yi said: "You said that you really want to fly freely in the sky like a bird. This tree is the tallest tree nearby, so it is also closest to the sky."
Snow Wolf was silent for a long time, then slowly said, "Come up?"
Although Qing Yi was pregnant with a child, climbing up a tree was too simple for her. She climbed up the tree dexterously and lay down on a thick branch next to the snow wolf, "Sad?"
Xue Lang also lay down with his hands behind his head, "You think I do this, right?"
Qing Yi said "Hmm". When Xue Lang came to propose to her, he had already given up on retaining the elder. He married Gu Da, which could indeed temporarily retain the elder and prevent the tribe from splitting. But this time we can marry each other, but what if it happens again next time?
Therefore, relying on sacrifice only treats the symptoms but not the root cause.
Xue Lang turned to look at her, "Everyone is against it, but you agree. Why?" He doesn't think that Qing Yi is not from their tribe, so he doesn't care whether their tribe splits.
Qing Yi said: "Now that you have married Guda, you have protected the elder's face. The elder will be grateful to you now. But if you don't fall in love with Guda, Guda will not be happy. If she is not happy, how can the elder not be happy as time goes by? Resentment? When the gratitude fades, and another person is interested in you, separation is still inevitable. What can you do to retain him? There is a saying in China that "helping the tyrants will cause harm". If you are weak, you will be ravaged by others. So, You would rather cut off your rotten arm now and use your other arm to hold up half the sky."
Xue Lang stared at her for a long time under the moonlight. There was no moon tonight, and he could only see her vague outline in the darkness, but he could feel her extremely young and beautiful face. Such a young girl, Being able to see through his heart in such a short period of time really surprised him, but it was also a pity. He raised his voice and laughed and said: "There are eleven people who know me. It's a pity that I can't get such a woman."
Qing Yi smiled and looked at the moon in the sky at dusk. It was the new moon tonight. She didn't know that he would miss her as much as she did at this time.
Xue Lang's eyes never left her face, "What kind of man is he?"
Qing Yi thought for a while, smiled suddenly, and then said: "He... is very rogue, very shameless, but also very amazing."
Xue Lang was confused. How could a man be a scoundrel and shameless man?
"You love him very much?"
Qing Yi took a deep breath and placed her hand lightly on her belly, "Yes, I love him very much."
"Since you love him, why did you leave him?"
Qing Yi said 'huh' and turned around, "Why didn't you say he abandoned me?"
Xue Lang shook his head, "No man would be willing to abandon a woman like you."
Qing Yi turned over on the tree pole, hooked her fingers at Snow Wolf, and motioned for him to come closer.
Snow Wolf moved forward.
Qing Yi said: "He broke his trust with me, so I kidnapped his child."
Xue Lang was startled for a moment and said angrily: "How can a man break his trust with a woman?" After he finished speaking, he thought about the meaning of the second half of Qing Yi's sentence. He moved his eyes downward and Nuonuo said: "Could it be that you..."
Qing Yi caressed her belly, and a happy smile appeared in the corner of her eyes, "When will he fulfill his promise, I will return the baby to him."
Xue Lang's eyes flickered, she was really a strange woman, and then she slapped her hand on the tree branch, flew down the tree, and landed on her feet. Suddenly she remembered something, climbed up the tree branch again, and hugged Qing Yi. Qing Yi subconsciously Dodging, Xue Lang said urgently: "You are pregnant with a child, so you can't climb up or down anymore."
Qing Yi smiled slightly, stopped dodging, and let Xue Lang hug her and jump down from the tree.
Xue Lang helped Qing Yi mount his horse, then blew a whistle, called his horse, got on his horse, and said, "Go back." The gloomy look on his face was gone.
Qing Yi asked: "Aren't you sad?"
Xue Lang smiled and said: "You, a woman, can sacrifice your troops to protect your commander. I, a man, should know how to let go."
Qing Yi glanced at Xue Lang approvingly, this person will definitely make great achievements in the future.
Snow Wolf led the horse forward slowly, turned back and said to her: "I believe that man will fulfill his promise."
Qing Yi smiled and said nothing, she also believed that he would.
In Yongning Palace, Xiao Hua was sitting behind the case, carefully reading the memorial. A gust of night wind blew by, and the candle suddenly dimmed. He hurriedly stretched out his hand to protect the flame, but sparks exploded and burned his hand.
Muze stepped forward hurriedly, and Xiao Hua suddenly raised his head, "Is there any news about her?"
Mu Ze said distressedly: "Your Majesty, it's late at night, it's time to rest."
A flash of disappointment flashed in Xiao Hua's eyes, he nodded lightly, put down the memorial, but did not get up and leave, turning his head to look at the endless night, his eyes gradually blurred.
Without her by my side, this world would be really boring.
What's more, it's the restless and restless New Moon.
Jiujiu asked: "Xue Lang should be here now."
Mu Ze said: "The Snow Wolf clan is so fierce. Isn't the Emperor afraid that they will take over that good place and become interested in him?"
