Chapter 23 Asking for Departure
[Ran^Text^Library] Qiushuiman is mired in a long nightmare, in which she seems to have returned to her original childhood.
"Man'er, be good, you are not in good health, this is the medicine that your father prepared for you, drink it quickly, you can get better if you drink it."
A man of about thirty years old looked at the little girl on the bed with a gentle smile on his face.
This is Qiu Shuiman and his father Qiu Gongjin at the age of ten!
But at that time, the little girl was tormented by the medicine she took!
……
"Man'er, this is a good thing in the Western Regions, hurry up and take it." The man, with a gentle face, pushed a purple glass of wine in front of her.
Seeing this thing, Qiu Shuiman, who was only fifteen years old, trembled all over his body and his face was full of panic.
"I don't drink, I'm a human, not a monster, I don't drink." As she spoke, she wanted to knock over the highly poisonous wine of the Western Regions, but her slender little hand was raised, and a loud slap hit Qiu Shui Man's face.
"Do you think I want to? If you hadn't been poisoned in the womb, would I have gone to great lengths to find poison to suppress you all these years? ”
Fifteen-year-old Qiushui sat on the ground, sobbing softly and helplessly, and then watched the guard next to her pour the glass of wine into her mouth, and then the bone-piercing pain annihilated her.
In an instant, the scene changed.
In the mirror, it is Qiu Shui sitting by the mirror, dressed in a bright red wedding dress, but his face is extremely pale, and the paleness is not a weak physique, but a perennial lack of sunshine.
"Dad, am I really going to marry King Yin? He's dead. Speaking of this, Qiushui couldn't help but sobbed in a low voice, and her thin shoulders shrugged slightly.
And Qiu Xiang had an impatient face.
"Man'er, don't be afraid, when the time comes, the eunuch will bring poisonous wine and white silk for you to choose, remember, you must choose the poisonous wine. You won't die, Daddy will definitely save you. The still gentle voice, like a loving father, gently patted her on the shoulder.
"Got it." There seemed to be a sigh in the soft words.
Then there was the piercing white silk, the bright red wedding dress, and the woman's weeping and panicked face.
Qiu Shui looked at the woman who looked like herself and slammed into the table in despair, her face covered in red blood.
That person was obviously not her, but she overflowed full of sadness from the bottom of her heart, like the changing situation around her, pushing her away from the depths of grief little by little.
But she didn't have time to be angry, and the fire in her heart was drowned out by the sudden cold tide.
This time, she recognized it, it was the world she had lived in for more than 20 years, and what she saw was her boyfriend - Ah Ye.
It's just that the men and women of ** are entangled in bed, and this scene stings her eyes.
She couldn't scream, but she knew that the anger in her heart exploded in an instant.
Her roar in the mirror image woke the two of them, and the man's gentle face instantly turned hideous, and his hand pressed against his head, slamming against the wall one by one, and the red blood snaked down the wall.
At the moment of her death, she saw the woman's provocative eyes in her panic.
It turns out that this is the truth that I have always wanted?
Her world seemed to be surrounded by blood, and the eerie red was shocking.
"Ahh
"Man'er, are you alright?" A cold but calm male voice came, waking up Qiu Shuiman.
It turns out that this is the truth. I was hacked by my boyfriend, and then died at the hands of my beloved, and I can't go back for a long time.
And the body he has is just a monster fed by poison, which seems to be favored by his father, but is actually manipulated by others.
The clothes were sweaty and sticking to his body, as if they had been washed with water. Qiu Shuiman opened his eyes and looked at the man's slightly worried eyes.
"Come on, bring a basin of warm water." Xiao Jue commanded coldly.
He stared at the autumn water, and his heart was complicated.
This time Qiushuiman's incident was caused by him, but he never felt that such a mistake was made to him, but he didn't know what to say to Qiushuiman for a moment.
Just now, I saw her unconsciously clenching the sheets with her hands in her sleep, her pale face was covered with sweat, and his heart seemed to be soaked with sweat.
"Did you have a nightmare?" Xiao Jue twisted the soft towel lightly and wiped the sweat beads on her cheeks for her, and there seemed to be some tenderness in her voice, which calmed Qiu Shuiman's heart suddenly.
"Never." Qiu Shuiman called his name lightly, and suddenly remembered that he had only been here for half a month, and he had a messy relationship with this man, and he couldn't help frowning, and the pain hit his heart again.
"Ah......h She remembered Qiu Xiangxue's push, and she actually retrieved her sealed memories.
"Man'er, are you alright?" Xiao Jue asked her in a panic.
Qiu Shuiman shook his head, only feeling dizzy and weak, as if he was not awake, his brain had not eased up, and the whole person seemed to be confused. The eyes that were originally full of aura were slightly confused at this moment.
She looked at Xiao Jue, the man in front of her was very handsome, he saved her from life and death, and after regaining her memory, there were some things she still needed to sort out slowly.
Her heart was very entangled, and she always thought that she could escape from here and return to her own time, at least at that time, her heart was full of hope.
But now, the reality told her that it was impossible, and the process from hope to despair shattered one of her hearts!
And now the man in front of you? Qiu Shui looked at Xiao Jue quietly, her expression was cold and trance, she was in this strange time and space, and fate had invisibly bound the two of them together.
Whether she wants it or not, the rest of her life may have to go on like this, that kind of feeling, she can't tell......
"I want to sleep in the meeting," Qiushui said slowly, his lips dry.
Xiao Jue looked at her sluggish spirit, and felt pity in her heart for no reason. It was as if the anger that had arisen before because she had fled without permission had turned into a feeling of distress after seeing her injured, and this feeling was a bit torturous.
"Okay, you sleep, I will watch over you, don't be afraid." Xiao Jue said and gently held Qiu Shuiman's hand, as if comforting a child.
Listening to Xiao Jue's words, Qiu Shuiman actually felt very relieved, she slowly closed her eyes, this time, the nightmare did not come to haunt her.
When Qiu Shuiman woke up again, it was already the evening of the next day, and Xiao Jue was no longer beside him. Qiushui was slightly lost, but he didn't take it to heart. She was hungry without eating for a day and a night, and was about to call Qing Shen to come, but when the door opened, Xiao Jue walked in with a food box.
"Then you know it's time to wake up, I'll make a delicious side dish in the kitchen, come and eat." Xiao Jue said that he had already put the food in the food box on the table.
Qiu Shui got up, feeling that her head seemed to be better for a long time and not hurt as before, she put on a dress and walked to the table and sat down.
"You haven't left?" Qiu Shui raised his head, but met Xiao Jue's deep eyes, he couldn't see the bottom, but there was always an indulgent illusion.
Qiu Shui Man turned his head away, jumped a few times restlessly, hurriedly picked up the chopsticks, and ate indiscriminately.
Xiao Jue naturally noticed her evasive gaze, and couldn't help but raise his lips and smile slightly. "I said I would guard you, so it's not a joke." As he spoke, he picked up his chopsticks and ate a few bites.
On the day and night when she was unconscious, he really didn't leave an inch, and some official business was also done outside. Now it is rumored in the house that he Yin Wang Xiao definitely cares about this princess.
Qiushui was slightly flustered, and his mind was a little confused. There are some things that she must make clear, and she can't let herself be controlled so passively.
"Lord, at the Mid-Autumn Festival state banquet, don't forget what the prince promised me. When I get well, please ask the prince to give me a letter of resignation and let me go. Qiu Shuiman put down his chopsticks, took out a juan pa and wiped his lips lightly, but he didn't dare to look at Xiao Jue's face at this time.
There was a moment of silence, and an eerie atmosphere surrounded it. Qiu Shuiman's heart trembled a little, she naturally knew this man's temper, she was angry when she said it, if she angered him, then ......
Xiao Jue's eyes were stained with a layer of fire, and he held the chopsticks in his hand as if he wanted to destroy it, but the next moment he suddenly continued to eat quietly, with an elegant and calm posture. "This king doesn't remember promising you anything." A shallow sentence made Qiu Shui Man suddenly disheartened.
"Xiao Jue, you, don't deceive people too much." Qiu Shuiman's little face was a little angry, obviously she won three cities for them at the state banquet that day, but this man didn't admit it, he knew that he would have let them be insulted by the envoys in the first place.
Xiao Jue put down his chopsticks, but he tried his best not to be angry. He thought that he had been very good to this woman during this time, but was this woman's heart made of stone? Is it so hard-hearted?
"You are planning to leave the palace, and you do not hesitate to cooperate with the envoys of Xiliang. This king has traveled thousands of miles to save you and keep you for a day and a night, is this how you repay this king? Do you want to leave, is it because you can't let go of that man in your heart? Sue me, is he an autumn night mark? ”
Xiao Jue said as he pulled Qiu Shuiman's arm and imprisoned her in his arms.
Qiu Shuiman knew that he was angry, but he misunderstood her again and again that she had an affair with her brother Qiu Ye, which only made her feel inexplicable.
"I said it, he's just my brother, don't speculate. I want to go, just because Sister Xiangxue loves you too much, and I don't want to be an obstacle between you. It was originally a misunderstanding between me and you, if you are worried about the person I love in my heart, then you can also let me go to the house, so you can rest assured! ”
In the past, she was thinking about her boyfriend, and she has been trying to go back and reunite with him.
But now, her heart is dead. But she didn't want to get involved in destroying their relationship between Xiao Jue and Qiu Xiangxue. If you can green the ancient Buddha, it will be good for a lifetime.
Xiao Jue felt a chuckle in his heart, and his sudden feelings stretched out, and he relaxed for no reason, it turned out that this woman said that she wanted to leave because of this.
"Is it because of Xiangxue that you want to leave me?" Xiao Jue's scorching breath hit Qiu Shuiman's ears, that place was Qiu Shuiman's sensitive place, and she couldn't help but shrink her neck.
Qiu Shuiman didn't answer, but the lip she bit leaked her thoughts, Xiao Jue couldn't cry or laugh for a while, he put his face on Qiu Shuiman's neck, sniffing the unique fragrance of Qiu Shuiman's body.
"I've always regarded Xiangxue as my sister!" Xiao Jue looked at Qiu Shuiman, Qiu Shuiman just lowered his eyes slightly and didn't speak, but the love in his eyes was covered up again, Xiao Jue couldn't help but laugh softly, he himself was surprised that he was so patient with a woman for the first time, "What? Unbelief? ”
Qiu Shuiman shook his head, "It's just that everyone can see that Xiangxue loves you very much." And everyone in the house knows that you are very good to her, how can it be so simple to just treat it as a sister? ”
She didn't believe it. None of a man's words are reliable, this is a bloody lesson she learned from her previous life.
Xiao Jue glared at Qiu Shuiman, his eyes were cold, but he didn't get angry anymore, he just sighed slightly, "Xiangxue's parents died to save me, so I promised them to help them take care of Xiangxue, this is the kindness I owe to the second elder of the Qiu family, do you understand?" ”
Qiu Shui turned his head to look at Xiao Jue, his eyes flashed with sadness, as if he remembered the unbearable past.
Such a depression? The deep eyes are filled with deep and shallow loneliness and loneliness, which is completely different from the man who has always been invincible, cold and arrogant.
