Chapter 376: Retreat as Advance
"His Royal Highness King Hao, you must know that the border is bitterly cold, even if you usually live in the border city, it is difficult for people to live long, not to mention, the second sister is to accompany the third prince to the border city to be punished, and there is endless labor every day, with the second sister's temperament, there is no need for His Royal Highness King Hao to do it, and the second sister will definitely die."
Le Jun slowly said the key: "Also, although Sister Ah doesn't like the second sister, but for so long, Sister Ah has never had the intention of taking the second sister's life, so I think that Sister Ah is not willing to do the second sister, and she should not want His Royal Highness King Hao to be contaminated with a life that should have died for her." ”
After Le Jun finished speaking, Le Hou and Xuanyuan Hao were stunned.
Lehou turned to look at his son, shocked in his heart.
Although their original intention was indeed so, let Lehua arrive in the border city safely. As for what will happen to her life after arriving in the border city, no one will presumably care too much.
Although he can't take Lehua back to the capital, he can at least ensure that she can be fed and clothed in the border city.
When the time comes, who will care about a woman who is serving as a laborer in a remote border city?
But these words, it is impossible for Le Hou to tell Xuanyuan Hao.
But he didn't expect that Le Jun would say these words to Xuanyuan Hao directly, although there were some things hidden in the middle. But these words are indeed their real thoughts at the moment.
When Lehou turned his head to look at Lejun, the emotions on his face were very changeable, surprised, shocked, happy, comforted, etc., these emotions came out of Lehou's face one by one.
So at this moment, Le Jun looked at his father's unpredictable face, and felt a little panicked in his heart, what's wrong with my father, didn't they say before they came, stabilize King Hao first? Could it be that what he just said was wrong?
Xuanyuan Hao looked at the two of them, father and son, and suddenly sneered, and said, "Le Jun has really grown up." It is good to use this trick to retreat as advance. ”
Le Jun and Le Hou's faces stiffened at the same time.
Lehou laughed twice, and was seen, is it so obvious? He thinks what Jun'er just said is very sincere?
Le Jun stiffly laughed and said, "His Royal Highness King Hao said that he was joking, what Le Jun said is true." ”
Xuanyuan Hao lowered his eyes, played with the broken porcelain pieces on the table, and said in a light tone: "But you are right about one thing, Qingqing must be more willing to know that Lehua suffered and died, if I make a move, it will be too cheap for her." ”
Le Jun blinked, frowned and asked, "His Royal Highness King Hao, is this a promise not to move my second sister?" ”
Xuanyuan Hao chuckled and said, "I can not move her, but I will never protect her." ”
It means that if Lehua is bent on death, or if someone else wants her to die, Xuanyuan Hao will never save her.
Le Jun understood, smiled busily, and said, "Thank you, His Royal Highness King Hao." ”
After saying that, he pulled up Lehou and prepared to get up and leave.
"Wait a minute," Xuanyuan Hao said.
Le Jun's back froze, for fear that something would happen.
A trace of anger flashed in Lehou's eyes, and he suddenly remembered the scene of Qing'er lying on the bed with a bloodless face more than a year ago, this bastard also didn't take care of Qing'er at the time, and he competed with him at this time, grabbing Hua'er, isn't this complaining that he didn't take care of Qing'er?!
Although this is true, no matter what, he is also Qing'er's father and this kid's father-in-law, even if Qing'er complains about him, it has nothing to do with him?! But look at what this kid's attitude is towards him now?!
He wasn't even afraid of his old man, was he afraid of him now?!
Just when Lehou was in a sour mood of being inexplicably snatched of his daughter, Xuanyuan Hao continued: "Lehua is locked in the room at the end of the corridor, you can go and see her." ”
The fire that Lehou wanted to send out, the words he wanted to scold, got stuck in his throat, and he swallowed those words back, causing his face to turn red.
Le Jun didn't know why, thanked Xuanyuan Hao, then tugged at the corner of Le Hou's clothes, and the two walked out of the room together, heading towards the end of the corridor.
Halfway through, Le Jun looked around, and when he saw that there was no one around, he twisted his eyebrows and asked, "Father, what were you thinking just now?" ”
There was still a flush on Le Hou's face, and the cold wind blowing outside, but it woke him up, and his cheeks couldn't help but be a little hot, he just guessed King Hao's intentions with the heart of a villain.
However, in front of Le Jun, as a father, he would never lose his face, Le Hou pondered for a moment, and said: "My father thought that King Hao was going to go back on his word, and he was a little annoyed for a while. ”
Le Jun nodded, "At that time, my son was also worried, but fortunately, King Hao did not regret it." ”
The two of them talked, and in the blink of an eye they reached the end of the hallway.
Lehou and Lejun were silent, pushed open the door and walked in.
Lehua fell asleep.
She scolded Chu Yueqing angrily in the carriage for a long time today, and the meals given to her by the guards were all simple rice and green vegetables, she looked at it and was disgusted, and she didn't have any appetite at all, so she didn't eat it.
After a long day's travel, she was already very hungry and tired, but after she refused to eat at noon, the guards really didn't give her food, and she fell asleep in the torment of being tired and hungry.
Le Jun walked over and looked at Lehua in plain clothes, his heart was slightly sour, no matter what, this is his own sister of his mother!
He pulled Lehua's sleeve and called her softly: "Second sister, second sister~"
Lehua heard someone calling her in a daze, and replied weakly: "Don't bother me..."
When Lehou heard this weak voice, his heart couldn't help but soften, and said, "Hua'er, it's my father." ”
Le Jun also continued: "Second sister, I am Ah Jun. ”
Lehua opened his confused eyes at this time, and after seeing that the two people in front of him were really Lehou and Lejun, he suddenly howled and cried, "Father, Ajun~"
Le Jun was stunned, his face was embarrassed, and he said in a low voice: "Second sister, don't cry!" ”
Lehua cried for a while, hurriedly stopped crying, and whispered: "Father, Ah Jun, are you here to save me?" Quick, get me out, those people won't give me food or water, and if I go like this, I won't have to go to the border city, and I won't be able to live! ”
Le Hou and Le Jun were silent when they heard this.
The room was so quiet that they could hear each other's breathing clearly, and Lehua looked at Lehou and Lejun in horror, "Father, Ajun, you... You guys..."
Le Jun held her hand and said, "Second sister, don't worry, this has just arrived in Qingluo Town, if you disappear here, His Royal Highness King Hao will definitely look for you, and then my father will not be able to protect you, and our family will also be charged." ”
Lehou's eyes flashed, and then said: "Yes, Hua'er, my father has already told King Hao, he won't embarrass you along the way, don't make trouble, you still have to eat when you should eat, don't starve yourself." Everything will wait until the border city. (To be continued.) )
