Chapter 51: Cutting the Hair and Atonement
There is an inn near Xinglin Hall, and Xiao Chuan and I want to get two rooms, thinking of staying there with Xiao Tianli. When I returned to Xinglin Hall, it was already dusk, and the people in the medical hall were a little free, some discussed medical skills together, and some were dispensing medicine.
When Ah Liang saw us coming back, he said, "Girl, he's awake." ”
I breathed a sigh of relief when I heard this, Xiao Tianli woke up, and it seemed that there was nothing serious.
"Thank you for taking care of him, and since he's awake, we'll leave in a moment. ”
"It's okay, there are people coming and going here, which is not conducive to his recuperation. I'm going to get you some medicine. ”
"Thank you. ”
Walking into the inner courtyard and pushing open the door of the house, Xiao Tianli was struggling to put on his armor. He heard the door open and cast his gaze.
I stepped forward to take the armor from his hand and said, "Your injuries are not healed, don't wear such heavy armor." ”
He knocked my hand off at once, then turned around and pulled out the long sword at the head of the bed and put it on my neck, a series of movements that were coherent and merciless.
I looked at his pursed lips, and the hand holding the sword trembled.
"Young Master Xiao. ”
"Why ......"
Xiao Chuan didn't understand what Xiao Tianli meant, but said anxiously: "Young Master Xiao, I beg you, don't hurt my sister!"
"Xiao Chuan, you go out first. ”
"Sister!"
"I'm fine. ”
Xiao Chuan couldn't resist me, and ran out with tears in his eyes.
When the door closed, I finally noticed something strange in Xiao Tianli's gaze.
"Yes, I did come out of the East Palace. ”
The sword in Xiao Tianli's hand was closer to my neck, "You colluded with An Shao to destroy me inside and outside, isn't it!"
I felt the pain of the sword grinding through my skin, "I can't escape the blame for the demise of Qipanzhai, but I didn't collude with An Shao!"
"You are his side concubine, without his order, which side concubine can go out of the palace without permission, and which side concubine can come to my side village!"
"With An Shao's ability, how could he use his own woman? Young Master Xiao, if he is so incompetent, why would he lead his troops to fight in person? Why don't you tell me to destroy Pan Yu invisible?"
Xiao Tianli didn't speak, I continued: "I am a substitute marriage, and my sisters who married into the East Palace were humiliated, and we escaped. ”
"You two are powerless women, how can you escape from the heavily guarded East Palace!" Xiao Tianli still didn't believe it.
"Of course, the two of us can't escape. Young Master Xiao, I know that Panzhai is your life's work, but I never wanted to be ruined, you hate me and want to kill me, I won't blame you, but please let Xiao Chuan go. ”
Xiao Tianli was already shaken, the sword in his hand was slowly put down, and then fell to the ground. He also seemed to have lost his soul, and even had tears in his eyes.
I picked up the sword he had dropped on the ground, and with the other hand removed the hairpin on my head, and my hair fell like a waterfall, and without hesitation, I swung my sword and cut off half of my long hair.
Xiao Tianli wanted to stop me, but he was still a step too late, he looked at me incredulously, and I sent the half of the length to Xiao Tianli's hand, "Today I cut my hair and atone for my sin, Young Master Xiao, if you still don't understand your hatred, just kill me." ”
His hand holding my hair was shaking, and tears were streaming down his face. It was the first time I had seen him cry.
For a long time, he did not speak, and finally he only picked up his sword and left the house.
"Young Master Xiao!" I chased out.
He stopped, just stared at my half-amputated hair, and I asked, "Where are you going?" ”
"I'm going to find Ali. With that, he strode away.
Xiao Chuan has been crying since she saw me come out, and I comforted her, "Okay, I'm fine." Pack up and go to the inn. ”
The hair is much shorter, and the head is much lighter, but there are so many lives in Panzhai, and it is not something that I can save with this little hair. Without Qi Panzhai, I don't know where Xiao Tianli will go in the future, fortunately, he is still young, and fortunately, he is not like me who has nothing, I hope he and Ali can spend the rest of their lives in peace, after all, Pingluo's national qi is really exhausted.
