With that said, she stretched out her other hand to tug Qi He's collar. Qi He couldn't hold himself up and fell right in front of Jing Huahan's face.
He liked her, but since he was a child, he had never dared to have such close face-to-face contact with her.
Jing Huahan's hot breath hit his face, and looking at the red little face that was about to bleed, he felt the blood all over his body surge in an instant.
He turned his face away suddenly, closed his eyes, and tried his best to control his breathing.
He almost kissed those two bright red lips just now.
But he knew he couldn't do that.
He didn't dare, and he didn't want to give up.
You have to wait, you have to wait until the wedding night -
Although he didn't know, in the current situation, whether he still had the chance to wait for the night that belonged to the two of him.
"Hao Hao, you have a high fever. Take your hand back quickly. Don't catch the cold again. I'll ask Wen Chan if he has any medicine." He stood up.
"Don't go—cousin, don't go—"
Qi He was about to pull away Jinghua Hairpin's hand, but his neck was already tightly grasped by Jinghua Hairpin.
"Hairpin! You can't do this! Let go!" Qi He said this, but he couldn't bear to leave Jinghua Hairpin even an inch.
Jing Huahan's eyes opened a little wider, with tears in them, "You fool! You left in such a hurry, there was no time to pack any medicine -"
The slender white knuckles hugged Qi He's neck tighter, and his voice was choked with sobs. If he had stopped his horse in front of me, I might have been killed long ago."
"But your legs are also suffering from hidden diseases because of me, cousin -" a drop of clear tears fell, "I originally planned to go to the palace today to ask my father to designate you as the consort. This is what they have already acquiesced in. , How can I imagine——"
“I never imagined that we would be on the road to escape today——”
"Stop talking about hairpin hairpin!" Qi He's Adam's apple slipped, and his thick voice was a little choked.
He gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Jinghua Hairan's eyes with his fingertips and stroked her bun, his eyes full of love.
"Cousin - I'm really scared! I've heard that the Beidi people are extremely ferocious. My father suppressed them so hard before, but now I let them break the city. I'm not sure why - maybe my father and mother are already - dead now ! We—we’re almost here too!”
Qi He's heart was about to break. He picked up Jinghua Hairpin and put it in his arms. He wrapped the quilt tightly around her and rested his chin on her forehead.
One hand gently patted her back, as if coaxing a motherless child to sleep.
"Don't be afraid! You still have me!"
"If our Dajing is really defeated, we will go far away and hide in the countryside. I can perform swordsmanship, be a teacher, or even work as a coolie in farming! I will definitely be able to defeat you. Take good care of yourself!"
"Hairpin, I'm afraid I won't be able to think about the rich clothes and food, but I will definitely let you be like before. You are not allowed to do anything. I will serve you for the rest of my life! Okay?"
"You are still a princess! You are the princess of me, Qi He!"
He regarded her as the treasure at the tip of his heart. It was something she held in the palm of his hand and offered to her on his eyelids. He didn't know how to cherish it.
Jinghua Hairpin lay in Qi He's arms, already reduced to tears, and the high fever gradually made her lose consciousness.
"Cousin! Life is too long - don't make promises! If you can't keep them by then, how heartbroken will I be -"
"How can you, a noble son of the Marquis Mansion, show your face and show off your sword and cultivate the land——"
"Besides, if Jing Chao really loses, my status as a princess will no longer be a hot potato, but a hot potato! It will only - it will only hurt you -"
"You should go far away. Father, he is so selfish - he should not let you come to see me off!"
Qi He couldn't hear these words, and rubbed the temples of Jinghua Hairpin with one hand, his eyes were scarlet, "What a stupid thing to say! Is it because of your identity that I stay with you? What does it mean to be involved or not?" Life or death, I have to be by your side to take care of you!"
"Not to mention playing swordsman and farming, as long as I can raise you well, I can do whatever you want! Whether you are a teacher or a sharecropper (2), I can do it!"
"If - if Da Jing really loses, I will be relieved. By then, I'm afraid no one will say that I want to use your light to get promoted -"
Love in this world couldn't be simpler.
Zuo is just someone who accompanies him in everything, life and death.
But it is such a simple thing, either people are not sincere, or God does not fulfill their wishes. How many people in this world can do it——
"Major General! Major General! The sound of horse hooves is coming towards us!"
An announcement came from outside the door, it was Shijin.
Qi He quickly put down the Jinghua hairpin and tried to get up to open the door, but his knuckles were lightly hooked.
Looking back, those beautiful eyes had closed again, with a few tears hanging between the fine eyelashes.
He couldn't help it, he leaned over and pecked her forehead gently, "Go to sleep, I'll be back soon."
"Major General! The sound of horse hooves is getting closer and closer!"
Shi Jin's voice became more and more anxious. Qi He walked outside in a few steps. Wen Chan and Qing'e were already waiting at the door with their clothes on.
"The princess has a high fever, think of a way to warm her up quickly! Bring medicine -"
Before he finished speaking, several sharp thunder whistles sounded.
"It's the sound of arrows flying!" Shi Jin took a few steps out alertly and asked everyone to line up their troops.
"No, it's not safe here!" Qi He stared straight at the courtyard door and made a decision immediately, looking at Shi Jin, "Hurry up and get the carriage over! Send the princess away from here!"
Shi Jin didn't hesitate anymore and immediately left the temple gate.
...
Jeering voices filled Jing Huahan's ears. She slowly opened her eyes, and what came into view was a large tall tent embroidered with complicated patterns.
Her throat was dry and it became extremely difficult to swallow, and she couldn't help but cough.
As soon as she coughed, four or five girls immediately gathered around her.
Their hair is all spread over their shoulders, and beads of different colors hang on their foreheads. Their ears and necks are even more decorated with colorful beads and jade, and they all wear bright red robes with gold woven patterns.
While watching her pointing and mumbling something she didn't understand, he looked extremely wary.
Jinghua Hairpin was shocked. She didn't have such clothes and decorations in the Jing Dynasty, and women were not allowed to let their hair hang freely.
She thought of the letter Qi He gave her, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of fear in her heart, but she ignored it. She opened her dry lips slightly and said hoarsely, "Water——"
Hearing the sound, one of the girls looked at her more cautiously, then whispered something into the other girl's ear, and the girl got up and walked out.
Seeing that no one handed him the water, Jing Huahan had no choice but to struggle to sit up. The girls didn't move and just knelt down in front of him.
Jing Huahan rubbed his swollen temples, then raised his head and looked around.
He actually rested in a big tent.
